Episode : 10

The next morning, as Tripura sipped her morning coffee, she was suddenly confronted with a shocking headline on the internet. It revealed that the missing girl's lifeless body had been discovered the previous night by the riverside. What made her heart drop was the fact that no one had been arrested in connection with the horrifying crime. The news stated that the girl had been strangled to death. Tripura felt an overwhelming sense of shock and sadness, her thoughts filled with questions and concern.

She imidiately decided to contact anisha but then she remembered

In her moment of distress, Tripura's heart sank even further as she realized she had deleted Anisha's contact information when Karan had convinced her to do so that day. She desperately searched through her phone, hoping to find any trace of Anisha's number, but it seemed like an impossible task. Panic set in as she struggled to figure out how to reach out to the grieving sister

Relieved and surprised, Tripura managed to find Anisha's number in the local telephone directory online. She dialed the number anxiously, and when Anisha's voice answered on the other end of the line, a wave of relief and surprise washed over her. They exchanged heartfelt words, and Tripura offered her condolences and support to Anisha during this difficult time After that they decided to meet once again so anisha agreed on it

Next afternoon

As Tripura sat down at the restaurant with Anisha, she noticed the pain and sorrow etched across her face. Anisha, looking puzzled, finally asked the question that had been on her mind since Tripura had requested the meeting,

A : Mrs Khanna, I appreciate your support, but I have to ask, why did you want to meet me? What's on your mind?

Her voice carried a mix of curiosity and sadness, reflecting the emotional turmoil she was going through.

Tripura took a deep breath and said

With a heavy heart, Tripura decided to reveal everything she had discovered to Anisha.

T: (Nervously) Anisha, there's something I need to tell you, something I've discovered recently about Karan. I found out that he's been involved in some escort services for quite some time now.

A: (Surprised and concerned) Escort services? Are you sure, mrs khanna?

Tripura with Agitated visage

T: Yes, I stumbled upon some evidence, a member list, and transactions that seem to confirm it. But what worries me the most is that I'm starting to suspect there might be a link between Karan and avishka's murder.

Anisha widened her eyes

A: What? Do you think the same then

T : I don't have concrete proof, but the timing and the connections I've uncovered raise some unsettling questions. That's why I needed to meet you, Anisha. I need your help to investigate this further. I can't do it alone, and if there's any chance of uncovering the truth, we need to act now.

Anisha halted for a moment

A : This is a lot to take in, mrs khanna But if there's even a remote chance that Karan is connected to what happened to my sister, I want to know. I'm in, we'll figure this out together.

T : Thank you, Anisha. We'll tread carefully and find out the truth, no matter where it leads us.

Then anisha hold her hands

A : I will do anything for my sister though that couldn't bring her back to me but atleast she will get her due justice

T : I want the same

Two days later, Anisha managed to obtain the address of the woman who had served Karan a couple of times at the escort service. Tripura, determined to gather more information, decided to meet this woman right away. After dropping Kiara at school, she headed to the coffee shop where the woman currently worked.The coffee shop had a cozy atmosphere with soft lighting and comfortable seating. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, creating a welcoming ambiance. Tripura took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves, as she approached the counter to order a coffee before her meeting with the woman who might hold crucial information about Karan's activities

When a waiter came to tale her order she asker her about melita so he pointed at the billing desk

W : There she is mam should I sent her here

Tripura nodded her head to yes

After sometime melita came to her and asked

M : Yes mam how can I help you

Tripura, with a mix of anxiety and determination, asked her directly about the escort service and Karan's involvement. At first, Melita denied any knowledge, but as Tripura presented some compelling evidence, the truth became undeniable.Melita's nervousness escalated as Tripura continued to press for information about Karan. She could see Melita trembling in fear, realizing the gravity of the situation. The coffee shop's once cozy atmosphere now felt tense, with hushed conversations and anxious glances from other patrons, all while Tripura pushed further for answers

M: (Nervously), the first time I met Karan, he seemed like a regular person. We spent the night together, and everything seemed so broken and wanted to rely on someone he was different than others he didnt touched me at all we just kept on talking whole night thats all. But the second time, he took me to an outskirts house, a quiet place, and that's when I realized he was into something horrible he seemed like a monster. He tried to kill me that night, and it turned into a horrifying ordeal. I was almost choked to death, but I managed to escape somehow.

When tripura heard that she was completely shattered and shocked she couldn't belive in her own ears but melita continued

M : I had no clue, about it , it was like he had a different side to him that he was hiding. I'm just grateful I got away from him that night, this man is dangerous.i still can remember his eyes it was burning agh still gives me chills I don't want to talk about it anymore please don't say this to anyone otherwise I will loose my job

Tripura had been listening to Melita's shocking revelations about her husband, Karan, in a daze. The weight of the secrets she'd just uncovered left her in a state of utter shock, unable to process the information or decide how to react. She sat there, lost in her thoughts, when suddenly,

Melita's loud call broke through her trance."mam!" Melita exclaimed loudly, her voice filled with urgency and concern. The sharpness of the call snapped Tripura back to the present moment, reminding her that she needed to take action and confront the harsh reality of her husband's hidden life

T : What he was talking about i mean you said he was broke and all what was that about ?

M : I dont know but he kept on saying that womens shouldnt do such jobs and the next day he was forcing me to quit my job and find a another way for living we had an arguement and then

Tripura got so confused hearing that but she sighed and said

T : Okay i dont wanna bother you i can understand your situation

Then she assured her that she won't reveal any of her past here so melita left After this

As Tripura sat in her car, still reeling from the shocking revelations, her hands trembling with nervousness, she reached for her car key to start the engine. But in her anxious state, the key slipped from her grasp and fell to the floor. As she bent down to retrieve it, her phone's flashlight inadvertently switched on.

In the dimly lit car, the bright flashlight revealed something unexpected. Underneath the driver's seat, a tiny light was blinking, catching her eye. She gasped as she realized what it was: a GPS tracking device. The sight of that indicator attached to her seat sent a jolt of surprise and fear through her. It raised countless questions about who had put it there and why. Tripura's mind raced, and she knew she had just stumbled upon a disturbing new mystery that would need to be unraveled.
