"Take the first step in faith. You dont have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step."

"Siya! Stop."

Siya became stiff hearing the voice. There's no way she could escape now...

She turned and saw karthik standing beside the car. He was also searching her along with arjun as soon as he got to know about her disappearance.

He walked towards her who was scared as shit and ready to cry any second. He eyed the suitcase in her hand and looked at her disappointed ly.

"You scared the shit out of us all." He said and took his phone out to inform arjun.

Siya started to cry as she was caught now...

When karthik dialled the number Siya left the suitcase which fell on the road and joined her hands infront of karthik. "Please dont call arjun." Siya pleaded crying.

Karthik heart melted seeing her state. He was also shocked by her behaviour.

But it was too late as arjun received the call.

Siya was shaking her head in a no crying silently pleading him.

"Hello, karthik! Did you find her?" He heard arjun asking. He kept quiet not knowing whether to tell him or not.

Finally he decided to favour siya. "No bhai. I called you to ask this only." He said.

Siya sighed in relief.

"No, we are still finding... I hope she will be all fine." Arjun said worried.

"Dont worry she will be alright." Karthik replied and cut the call.

He looked at siya who was still crying hanging her head low.

He sighed and picked up her suitcase. "You know the whole city is searching for you... where will you hide."

Siya panicked that he will take her back home. She stood there scared while karthik started moving towards his car.

He stopped when he sensed siya not following him. "Now are you going to stand here only... Come."

He said and and made her sit inside the car. He gave her water to drink as she was tried as hell from all running.

"Please.. dont take me to arjun." She pleaded.

Karthik stared at her disbelieved. "Why did you ran off the house?" He asked.

Siya gulped and replied. "I...I didnt wanted to stay t..there. please don't t..ake me back."

Karthik tensed seeing her crying loudly. He felt bad for her. He had the idea what she is going through. "Okay... I won't take you there... relax dont cry. Stop please." He said convincing her to stay calm.

"Still you shouldn't have done that... thank god you're safe and I was the one who found you here. You are roaming around the streets in night what if something would happen." He said what he feared.
