They die

When Ridhima opened her eyes, she looked around and saw herself in a room- all alone. She rushed to open the door but it was locked. Her phone was not with her. Examining the surroundings, she realised the room was filled with sand particles. It must be close to the sea. 

Putting her ear on the wooden floor, she heard the sound of the waves. She was right- it was close to the sea. She needed to survive, her Vansh was waiting.

She went on banging all the walls recklessly, she did not have time to think of anything else. She must escape and that was all she had in her mind. She stopped at a spot- the sound came different. It wasn't wood, it was cardboard in that part. Lifting the chair where she had been sitting before, she tried to break open that spot with all her force. 

Her desperate efforts came to fruit as it started cracking. Completely drained out, she was on the verge of fainting when the cardboard fell off, breaking into hundred piece and she could finally see the sea outside. 

Looking down, she realised it was far above the ground level. Infact it was almost the second floor. However there was no other option, she had to take the step- the risk to jump down. Closing her eyes, she threw herself outside through the small window and the next moment, she had landed on the sand. She thanked God that she was not much hurt but her peace did not last long. No sooner had she managed to stand up, her eyes met the eyes of the serial killer.

Without wasting a second, she started running as fast as she could. She was tired as hell and the costume was heavier but she won't give up. Kabir ,who had just returned, was going up the stairs when he heard a loud thump and came running out, only to see Ridhima had escaped. Immediately he started chasing her.

Ridhima could no longer move. Looking around, she saw she was all alone with a psychopath. Only the sea, sand and them. Moreover she was pregnant. Already at a loss of breath, she tripped over and fell down. Seeing Ridhima had stopped, Kabir too stopped running and starting walking towards her slowly. With every single step he took, Ridhima's shout for Vansh got louder. She screamed her lungs out, only to hear her voice echoing back.

Just as he was about to touch her, she kicked me with all her remaining strength. Shocked by the sudden attack, Kabir stumbled back on the sand. With a smirk on his face, he opened his eyes slowly only to receive a surprise. Right above him stood Vansh.

Still lying on the sand, he snapped, "You managed to find us, huh? Can't you give me and Ridhima some time?"

An enraged Vansh kicked his face in reply to his question, "You wanna die in my hands?"

What followed next was a deadly fight. None was less than the other, both ready to slit each other's throat. Ridhima could do nothing but pray for her love's safety. Her lower abdomen was paining like hell.

Suddenly she felt some warm fluid flowing down her legs. Lifting her skirt, she saw it was blood. Her child? Realization hit her hard.

"My child", she cried out her horror.

Hearing her voice, Vansh got frozen in his place. Looking at Ridhima and seeing the blood, he realised that they were going to be parents but now It Was All Gone.

Before he could take a step to avenge his child's death, he felt his body piercing. Looking at his chest, he saw the bullet had hit the left side of his chest.

Hearing the gunshot, Ridhima looked up to see Vansh's sherwani had turned red with blood. She struggled to stand up but in vain.

Kabir stood at the side, holding the gun with pride, smiling wickedly. 

His chest got heavier and being unable to breath, Vansh collapsed. The sand turned red, soaking the fluid. Heart-broken Ridhima dragged herself to a deadly injured Vansh to have their last conversation. She wanted to live. So did he. Their happily even after was just a step away. Then how could thing have to go awry? Just because of that one guy.

"Vansh", she called for him, holding his hand.

He could just faintly smile, his tears spoke his desire to live.

"Please don't die, don't die because of me", she went on crying.

"You once told me that every human being has 4 lives. If this wasn't our last chance, I will wait for you on the other side. Take your time before coming. I want you to live even after I leave", Vansh smile before taking his last breath.

Hugging the pale body, Ridhima cried and screamed. Even before she could get herself together, Kabir crawled to her and whispered in her ear from behind, "See its just you and me now."

Ridhima looked into his eyes and started laughing. Seeing her, a shocked Kabir started giggling. Her laughter suddenly changed into a grin and she had already shot him right into his heart before he could realise.

Looking into his eyes, she smirked, "See. I took my revenge but now I feel it was not enough. I hope you are born again and in your next life, you shall suffer the pain you have given others. I curse you to suffer a life worse than hell where everyone will hate you and you will die every moment you live", and pushed him away. 

Getting back to Vansh, she laid beside his dead body, hugging him tightly and said, "Please be reborn...I promise to find you for sure", before closing her eyes.

When everyone reached there, all the three were dead.
