It's Just You And Me

Chapter 48

Part A

Flashback....
Shehnaaz took that opportunity as a ray of hope and decided to run away from wherever they will take her. The next day Chachi sees her off with fake tears, Mayera gave her an evil smile with a slight wave saying her goodbyes. Those two were not giving her good vibes at all, she felt something was fishy over here. She was smart enough to see and memorize the train name and number along with the coach and seat number, the train was going to Jaipur. It was a 'Pune Jaipur Express' Train. The couple was joined by 2 more shabby looking men which was very odd increasing her suspicion for them. They settled down on their seats, the lady made her sit near the window, she smiled at her and she smiled back in order to win their trust. She was lost thinking how her life had become, it all seemed like a joke, she had become a joke for the entier world. Her Chachi didn't even thought once before sending her with these strangers, she rested her head on the window closing her eyes and feeling the cold wind hitting her face helping her to suppress her tears. Time was passing by like the sprinting trees that she could see outside, Sana again closed her eyes feeling tired

"She probably has no idea how much money she'll get us" one of the man laughed excitedly, "Shut up she might understand" the lady gritted her teeth. "Look at her, do you think she's educated? she probably won't understand anything" the man retorted. "We'll sell her for good money" the lady smirked. Shehnaaz was startled listening to them and was scared to death. They thought she would not understand, bloody fools. She thanked her baba ji to let her know the truth, she decided to change her plan and run away from them as soon as possible. She can't take the risk of going any further, but how?
She decided to first win their trust, luckily she had been on her best behavior possible so they were partially convinced that she won't create any drama. "Baba ji please itni help ki hai toh ab koi rasta bhi dekha hi do please please mujhe inn logo se bacha lo" she was praying inwardly when one of the lady passing by there seat was on call with someone, "Haan Haan tum tension mat lo 10 min ka halt hai station par bas abhi aadhe ghante mei Surat pohoch jaye ge" The lady who passed walked by giving her the information and the opportunity she wished for. Those 10 mins will be perfect for her to escape, she thought and waited for that particular station.
Present time....
"That half an hour felt like eternity.... mai itna wait kar rahi thi ki kab vo Surat ka station aaye ga aur mai kab waha se bhag pao ge..... bhag bhi pao ge ya ny, kya hoga aage mujhe kuch samjh ny aa raha tha bohot saare thoughts ghum rahe thi demag mei" she was by this time resting her head on his lap, his hand caressing her head and he was just impatiently waiting for her to continue and let him know that she made it out safely. "Jab station par train ruki toh mai jaan kar pehle 5 min chup chap baithi rahi, jo do ladke sath mei aaye thi vo humare liye kuch khane ko lene chale gae aur vo admi pata ny train se utar kar bas idhar udhar ho raha tha..... mere sath vo aurat baithi thi bas..." she continued.

Flashback to Sana escaping.
"Mujhe washroom use karna hai" she spoke softly, this was probably the first sentence she said in front of them. The lady was not at all suspicious as Shehnaaz had been acting very trusting toward them, she had been very cooperative without asking any questions. "Haan beta jao.... ya mai chalu sath mei?" she smiled. How can someone fake such a sweet and convincing smile, she wondered. "Nahi mai chali jao ge" she slightly smiled back and left. The lady peeped from her seat to see if she was going else where but was relieved to see her getting inside the washroom. Shehnaaz sneaked out and ran towards the other coach, one coach after the other running far away from there seat. When she felt she was far away she got down from the train and ran for her dear life , she bumped into many people around but she continued running far away from them, far away from their reach. When the train started moving and Shehnaaz still didn't came back to her seat that's when the lady realized that she ran away. "Bewakoof aurat usko aise kaise akele jaane diya" the man yelled. "Aree hamare dhande mei isko lena hi ny chahiye tha" one of the boy said. The jeering of her own team irritated her but she had no choice other than listing to them.
