"Hey kiddo, soon you are going to start going to your school, everything is arranged, and don't forget at 2, the car will be waiting for you," said the voice in the morning.
"How can I contact you?" asked Abhay.
"You can't and I won't be calling you tomorrow, tomorrow the class will be in the evening," said the voice.
"What if I need something?" asked Abhay.
"Just open the door, your problem will be solved, but don't misuse it," said the voice.
"We need groceries and milk," said Abhay.
"Okay, ask her to prepare the list and leave it outside, they will arrange everything," said the voice.
"I want to meet you," said Abhay.
"Kiddo, we are going to meet soon, but you are not going to recognize me," said the voice smiling and the call got disconnected.
"I will recognize you, you can't hide from me for a long time," thought Abhay.
"I think he took my words seriously, and is trying to befriend the unknown caller," said Isha and received a hit on her forehead.
"Radha ma, he hit me again," said Isha, running towards Radha.
"What are you hiding from me? Why did she slip into a coma? Why didn't Roshni call till now? Did they fight about something?" asked Rohan, looking at Kartik and Pallavi.
"Aman uncle and Roshni aunty are dead," said Kartik and a tight slap landed on his face and Pallavi took a step back and said, "Mom saw their souls and held her chest and became unconscious."
"Are you both out of your minds? They might have fought about something, that doesn't mean you call them dead, as soon as Roshni will return, she is going to apologize and hug her and end that fight," shouted Rohan.
"They both are dead and they are following us because they are suspicious that you are involved in their death," shouted Pallavi crying, and pointing her finger towards the person who was standing outside and Rohan widened his eyes and asked, "why I will kill my own sister?"
"Dad, I am sorry," said Kartik, hugging him.
"Wait, if they are dead, then where are Abhay and Isha?" asked Rohan, breaking the hug.
"We are not allowed to meet them, they will kill us," said Pallavi.
"They are my kids, no one can stop me," said Rohan.
"Dad, not now, go and meet them in the evening, you can go from the back side," suggested Pallavi.
"Okay, I think that will be the better option, I will go after one hour," said Rohan and thought, "why are these kids lying? Who forced them to lie? I have to find out what happened when I was not here and why Roshni didn't call me after that day," and dialed Roshni's landline number, but the voice said, "the number is not in use."
"What the fuck, how can it be not in use," thought Rohan and looked outside and thought, "who are these people? What do they want from me? Who was that man in the photo?"
He went outside through the back door and went near Aman's gate and saw that Abhay was going with someone in the car.
"Shit, how am I going to follow them, hopefully they are not kidnapping him, I should have brought my car," thought Rohan and looked here and there for some vehicle to follow them, but didn't find any.
He noted the vehicle number and felt someone was standing behind him and turned and looked at him confused.
He gave the location and said, "I know who you are, take it as a warning, stay away from him, otherwise you will lose your life, you can go to this location, but don't dare to go near him," and left from there.
