"WORK MODE ON"

Next Morning.
They go back to Sumedh's home. She wears airport type clothes. Mustard pant with dark Mustard crop top and green jacket.
Sumedh is in his shorts and red shirt driving her to the airport.
They are at the gate of airport.

Sumedh:
Suno, take care of yourself and please don't mess around with criminals. Come back soon.
Malika:
Yeah yeah.
Sumedh:
Whatever the work is. Don't trust anyone there. Fill in the blanks Mallika.
Mallika:
Yeah speak!
Sumedh:
_____ki khasiyat hoti hai. Ki dene wala koi____hota hai.
Mallika:
Ughh! Dhoke ki khasiyat hoti hai. Ki dene wala koi apna hota hai!
Sumedh:
Good. Remember that!

Mallika takes her bag. She walks towards the door. Sumedh stands there waiting for her to turn. She turns to him.
She feels something different. She didn't want to leave Sumedh. He is smiling at her. She drops her bag. She runs back to him and hug him tightly. He is surprised as Mallika never expressed much emotions.

Mallika:
I will be back soon. Teri aadat hogai hai ab toh Sumedh.
Sumedh:
I love you.
Mallika:
I love you too.

She gives him a peck and leaves.
She is sitting in the plane going through her childhood pics with her dad.

Flashback.

Mallika's dad was also a major. He got to know about the weapon faults when too many soldiers died in a small attack from the opposite side.
He searched more and kept the whole thing in front of his seniors.
They being corrupt too, threatened him.
When he didn't stop, they sent a man to kill his family and him. Mallika and her mom were sleeping upstair when due the fight between Vikram and the man, fire broke out.
The man was already dead. Vikram got Mallika and her mom out but was unable to come back as the gas cylinder bursted. Everyone assumed him dead as they found a tottaly burnt dead body.
But Vikram never died.
He staged his death to kill the corrupt  arms suppliers and save his country.
No one knew knew about the man so everyone considered him to be Vikram.

Now
When the killings became prominent after the attack on CM Joshi and Mallika took over the case.
Vikram saw it as an opportunity to get Mallika's help to kill corrupt.
He had injured or retired army men in his team.
When he met her in his library, he told her everything and asked her help to kill CM Joshi.
Mallika loves her father so does her father.
She reluctantly agreed. CM Joshi has a event in Jaisalmer.
After Mallika kills CM, things will be normal.
Her mom and Vikram will shift abroad and live there peacefully.

Flashback ends.

She lands. She goes straight where the event was as her dad had called her there. She was a bit lost between the right thing and the wrong thing.

Vikram:
You ok princess?
Mallika:
Dad...We could have gone by the law na...this is not right.
Vikram:
Its not wrong too. He killed our army men, we kill him. End of discussion.
Mallika:
What is the plan?
Vikram:
Meet him. He trusts you so get him in parking. There will be no one down. Just you, me, Joshi. Usko zeher peene lo bolenge! Get the gun. Pull on your socks

"Pull up your socks Major Mallika!"
Sumedh's words echoed in her ears. She got lost again. For the first time, she was feeling a hollow space in her heart. A space just for Sumedh. His eyes, his smile, his face suddenly came infront of her eyes. She wanted to run to him and just hug him. Now, for her, the relationship was more than just dating and sex. The relationship always had love but more from Sumedh than from Mallika. She was falling for him more.

Vikram noticed her change. He clicked his fingers infront of her eyes and she blinked with a jerk.

Vikram:
Again...All okay Princess?
Mallika:
Y..yes dad.
Vikram:
Well...your neck doesn't look fine Princess.

She touched her neck and understood that he saw the love bite. The love bite was deep and prominent.

Mallika:
Just a--
Vikram:
Spider?
Mallika:
Hmm hmm.
Vikram:
Spiders trap bad Mallika..
Mallika:
Dad...its not what you are thinking.
Vikram:
Ik what it is Mallika. Its a love bite. Who is he?
Mallika:
Dad...he..is ex army...He is army advocate and CBI too...
Vikram:
Name?
Mallika:
Sumedh Mudgalkar.
Vikram:
We will talk about him and to him later. But...Do you love him?
Mallika:
Hmm..hmm...Dad...I...I do love him.

Vikram turned his back to Mallika. Mallika got back to work.
.
What is Vikram thinking? What will happen now? Will Mallika follow the law or follow her dad?
