So according to Zakir's plan, I am supposed to gather Rounak's patrolling crew by killing the first person I see all leave a message that says "I'M YOUR KALKI". Which will more or create a panic and it'll be easier for Zakir to eliminate Rounak. This plan is way too cinematic for me.
So here I am, lurking around the barbed fences of the gang house to grab attention of a gaurd. That being said, I've been sitting here for the last two hours, if I have to wait another hour more I'll leave.
I finally say on the ground and closed my eyes to get back my focus.
"Baba, who is this?" I asked my father while going through his scrapbook from his college years.
It was filled with the pictures of a beautiful young woman. Looked like newspaper cut-outs. Was Baba a fan-boy or something?
"That's Mira Singh. She was the national crush of our time. Everyone was crazy about her." My father says. "Unfortunately she disappeared. It is still a mystery, nobody knows if she's dead or alive."
"Why don't you tell Rani that you were about to name her Mira after her birth?" My mother says while she hugged me from behind. God, how much I love Ma for hugging me like that. I scrunched my nose at the thought of my name being Mira... Mira Banerjee...eww!
Ma's warmth always made me feel so secure and calm. Probably that's another reason I'm always so scared now.
"Ms. Banerjee two men are approaching toward you. Now is your chance" after hearing Zakir's voice through the earpiece I open my and took my stance.
"Copy." I said as I take out my gun and put off the safety. I take a few deep breath to calm myself, because if this plan fails I'm dead. The moment the men appeared in front of me, I shot them between their eyes and left the note. Then I ran to the second point and shot down some random gaurds.
Soon the area around the fence was in chaos. The patrolling group was divided into two groups, and they went to the two different murder points. Rounak will be out soon. "Mr. Ali my job is done." I said to the earpiece.
"You can head to the hideout Ms. Banerjee. I'll take care of it from here." Zakir's reply came in.
"Copy." With that I mounted my bike and drove away. It's all on you Zakir.
Two hours later....
It's been two hours since the incident. Zakir is in the shower washing of Rounak's blood from his skin. And I'm cooking him something since he looked extremely tired. He said told me that he's got a good news but I have no idea what he is talking about.
"Are you cooking for me Ms. Banerjee?" , I turned to see Zakir standing beside the dinning table with a cocky smile playing on his lips.
"Well, you look extremely tired." I replied softly while turning off the heat and bringing the pan to the table. "It's nothing much, just Maggi with some vegetables and eggs." I said. Zakir chuckled and sat on the chair then pulled me on his lap.
"Just stay here, alright?" He asked and I nodded. He starts eating nods in appreciation for the food. To which I just shrugged.
"So what was this good news you were talking about?" I asked.
Zakir takes the last bite and looks at me, mischievously, "Kaushal is dead. He overdosed last night, his body was found in his room by a cleaner this afternoon." He said. My lips formed a victorious smile. Our job just got easier. We've got on two more to kill and it's over. "It's a miraculous coincident, isn't?" Zakir asked. Zakir then took out an envelope from his bag. The envelope that he gave me. "You can open it now, Ms. Banerjee."
I took the envelope from his hand and tear off the seal. The envelope contained a passport, fight ticket and an I.D card. "It's your new life Ms. Banerjee." Zakir says as he caresses my cheeks. The I.D card says my name is Uma Gupta. I'll be free for real.
I leaned in and planted a kiss on Zakir's lips. "Thank you so much Mr Ali." I said. Zakir just smiles. "You're welcome Ms. Ranjana Banerjee."
"Can I ask you something?" I asked, to which he nodded an yes. "Why don't you call me by my first name?" I asked. We've been working together for so long, we slept countless times together then why would he call me Ms. Banerjee all the time?
"It's because I'm planning on calling you by your first name when you start a new life. I don't want to have any attachments with Ranjana Banerjee, who ont exist after a few weeks." He says calmly. That did made sense.
"You'll come to meet when I change my identity and start a new life?" I asked with a chuckle. "You sure are a lot romantic for someone who claims to not be in love."
Zakir pulled me closer as I felt his hardness on my core, "Now, Ms. Banerjee why would I lose the beautiful thing that we've got between us? And plus I'm sure you wouldn't mind it too." He says and I blush. "And talking about love.... Should I remind you exactly how I should my "love" ? Seems like you've forgotten." He says teasingly with a hint of threat underlying.
"I guess I have forgotten." I say with a hint of seduction. Zakir's eyes twinkled as he picked me up and took me to the bedroom. Everything because a blue after that except for us tangled up together on the bed, sleeping peacefully.
