Ye Ishq Hai

ch-29

       " What are you saying Adi? How is it possible? How can she go somewhere at this time of night that too without telling us? I guess you have not searched properly. She must be doing it purposely to irritate you. Let's go and search properly once again in whole house." Malini said to him, and they decided to search once again whole house but didn't find her anywhere. Aditya called Arundhati.

     " Hello Aditya, I was about to call you. Many many happy returns of the day. May God bless you and keep happy always" Arundhati happily replied.

    " Thank you Aunty, is Avantika there? Please give her phone." Aditya said with hope and keeping his fingers crossed.

    " What are you saying? What will Avantika do here at this time, especially when it's your birthday? She was preparing surprise for your birthday." Arundhati said with confusion.

" Aunty, she is not here, and her phone is switched off. Do you know, anyone who can have any idea about her? " Aditya asked desperately.

    " What? How is it possible? and no she doesn't go anywhere as she doesn't have that much close friends, and have you seen the time?Why will she go anywhere  at this time without informing you or your family?" Arundhati asked him.

   "But aunty she is not at home, and I am having very bad feeling, please tell me if you know anything” he pleaded.

  " Aditya, please calm down. You tell me, why and how she can go anywhere at this time? It doesn't make sense right? I am sure she must be hiding somewhere in house to give you surprise. She will
herself come out in few minutes, ok? " Arundhati tried to make him understand and herself too.

   " Mom when was the last time you saw her and where?" Aditya asked being hyper and worried like hell.

  "Around 10 pm, in her room." Malini replied.

  He listened and ran towards cctv room. Whole house was covered under cctv cameras except bedrooms. He started watching footage in cctv of outside his room area. He saw Malini coming out
of the room and was eagerly waiting to see Avantika, but she was not coming. He was about to fast forward it then suddenly he saw his room door opened then he stopped.

     He saw Avantika came out of the room but what shocked him was her condition. He can bet she came out while getting ready but why? and he saw her running towards downstairs while wiping her tears. His mind was spinning with all the questions then he saw in the hall cameras where she was going like that.

      She opened the main door in hurry and went outside. Aditya and his parents were looking at each other with utter
confusion. He switched to outside cameras to see where she went. There he saw her standing near outside of their house campus and was looking at phone. At that very moment something happened which shocked them to the core.

      A person came from behind and pressed a handkerchief on her mouth. She she tried to resist but it was of no use and within seconds she became unconscious. That person took her phone and kept it in his pocket then signalled at something. Within seconds, one black Scorpio with tinted windows came and they put her unconscious body in the scropio and went away with high speed.

      Everything happened with jet speed like a perfectly executed plan. Aditya
and his parents looked at that clipping with horrific expressions. They were unable to comprehend what they had just witnessed. Aditya was sitting like a statue; his mind was completely numb, and Malini was crying continuously.

     "Adi, please take hold on yourself. We need to file complaint to police as soon as possible. We can't sit here crying" Harsh said to him and tried to gain his attention
