A Love Like This

Chapter 5

Sameer's pov :

"Well - " ,he said and took a pause.

My heart was beating fast at this point and this fucker is not finishing the sentences in a go.

"Can you just complete the whole sentence at once ? " , I said getting impatient and irritated.

He took his laptop and came and sat beside me. He gestured me to look at it.

" Okay see you need to be calm right now. Don't get stressed okay. " , he said and my eyebrows knitted together.

He continued, " I got this peice of footage from twelve years back , and the rest will be known when you look at it."

He played the footage. It was her. My little lily walking through the path towards her house. But my eyebrows furrowed as I watched further. Once she reached her house , she looked tensed. She went inside taking small steps. Some minutes passed there's wasn't any movement and the footage got cut and then the next scene was terrifying. Her house got caught in fire. My lily was inside with her family. The sudden urge to get inside the footage and save her clouded my senses. No this can't be happening. I need to save her. And the footage ended.

I suddenly grabbed harshit by his collars and said , " Tell me this is a lie. Tell me this all is a facade. This can't be real , right ? Yes this is not real. My lily is alive . "

I abruptly left his collars and the nest thing I did was smash the vase against the wall. I lost my control. Her thoughts are the only that keeps me sane. This is not true. This can neverbe true .

Harshit grabbed me by my shoulders and said , " calm the fuck down Sameer, just fucking calm down . We don't even know if they were inside.Remember a part of the footage has been deleted . We need to find that to know what happened. "

Yeah. He is right. But what if it's true. No I can't live without my lily. I need to find her as soon as possible. And how the house caught this fire. What happened that day ? I checked the time of the first footage and then the second one. What happened in that two hours ?

"I am trying to find more about it. I thought of not telling you this because I knew your reaction but then I thought what if you knew something about this. About the sudden fire and the other details, I will keep you notified but you need to calm the fuck down. Breaking vases won't find her. Do you get that . Now just go and sleep ." , Harshit explained and gave me a subtle nod.

I couldn't process a thing. This twelve freaking years. Every fucking seconds was hard without her. I can't imagine my life without her . She unknowingly became my life.

" Get back home , I need some time alone" , I said to him earning a nod from him before he left.

"I said leave Harshit, I need some time alone " , I said and he gave me a nod before leaving the penthouse.

Present:

I was driving to the club. My mind was still roaming around that footage. I swear on my life that once I found who was it and what tried to harm my lily. I would definitely make sure that the person doesn't get to live a second.

Reaching the club , I threw the keys to the bouncer standing there and walked straight inside. I went to the VIP part of the club. Every person present there lowered their eyes when they saw me. Well they don't wish death, do they ?

I sat on the tool near the counter and asked the bartender to make my drink. My eyes roamed around the club and got stucked at a familiar figure. I looked at the person before me standing a bit far with an angry face looking like they are waiting for someone.
