Haya's head jerked up at the sound of the familiar voice, her eyes widening in shock as she took in Aagah's towering figure before her. "R-Ruhaan," she stuttered, her voice barely audible.

But before she could say more, Mayank spun around, his face contorted in anger. "Who the hell are you?" he bellowed, only to be cut off by the deafening sound of a gunshot.

Aagah had swiftly pulled out his gun and fired a warning shot into the air, sending the club into chaos. Panic set in as people scrambled to escape.

Naina and her friends tried to flee, but Saify blocked their path, his gun trained on them. Anya, who had been separated from the group, returned just in time to see the mayhem unfold.

Saify barked orders, forcing everyone to sit on the floor, while Aagah grasped Haya's arm, pulling her up from her seat with a firm grip. "Let's go," he growled, his eyes scanning the room for any signs of further trouble.

"Who...who are you?" Arsh stammered, his eyes wide with terror as he took in the scene before him, Aagah's gun still smoking and Saify's weapon trained on the crowd.

"Who...who are you?" - Arsh shouted at them.

"What will you do after knowing who I am? Now it is important that you understand what a big mistake you have made today." - Aagah said growled, his eyes blazing with anger.

His expression softened as he turned to Haya, his gentle gesture a stark contrast to the violence he had just unleashed on Ayush. "Sit," he said quietly, guiding Haya onto the sofa with a gentle hand. The tender gesture was jarring after the brutal kick he had delivered to Ayush's side just moments before.

"Mistake? What kind of mistakes are you talking about?" Mayank sneered, his tone dripping with defiance.

"Touching and forcing a girl to drink without her permission," Aagah growled, his words dripping with disgust.

"Forcing? Are you kidding me? She was having fun too, wasn't she, Haya? Aren't you having fun right now?" Ayush said, standing up and holding his stomach, his laughter and smile betraying no hint of fear.

"God, I really didn't want to do this tonight, but..." Aagah growled, sitting down on the sofa and pressing his neck, his frustration evident in his sigh and tense posture. He turned to Haya and ordered brusquely, "Close your eyes."

"Huh?" Haya exclaimed, her eyes widening in defiance instead of closing them.

Aagah swiftly covered Haya's eyes, while Saify simultaneously covered Anya's. Then, in a swift and deadly motion, Aagah shot Ayush point-blank.

As the gunshot echoed, Haya instinctively wrapped her arms tightly around Aagah, clinging to him in shock.

In an instant, the room fell silent, and everyone's smile vanished. Naina immediately joined her hands and begged, her voice cracking.

"I'm sorry... Please, forgive me... And all of us. Please." - Naina.

"Forgiveness? Damn girl, this word doesn't exist in my dictionary." - Aagah said with a chuckle.

Saying this, Aagah pulled the trigger again, ending Arsh's life as well.

Haya flung her arms around Aagah, holding him as tightly as she could, while he reciprocated, his grip intensifying as he felt his heart racing with fear.

Nearby, Anya clung to Saify, who sat frozen and speechless, his eyes fixed on the carnage before him.

"You'll pay for your sins. Just wait and watch," Aagah snarled, his eyes blazing with fury.

Aagah then ushered Haya out of the club, flanked by Saify and Anya. As they walked, Anya tried to comfort Haya, urging her to relax, while Aagah issued a curt order to Saify.

"Hey, it's okay, relax, I'm here for you." - Anya whispered softly to Haya, trying to calm her down.

Here is the edited dialogue with corrected dialogue expressions:

"Drop Anya home safely," Aagah ordered gruffly.

"Okay, Boss," Saify replied, his tone subdued.

"Anya, go with Saify, he'll drop you home," - Aagah instructed, his voice firm but gentle.

"Okay," - Anya said, her voice laced with concern. "Haya, don't be scared anymore, okay?"

"Okay, -" Haya replied, her voice barely above a whisper.

"Make sure to call me after reaching home," - Haya added, her tone anxious.

"Okay," - Anya assured her, smiling softly.

Saify then escorted Anya away, leaving Aagah and Haya alone.

"Come on, let me drop you home," - Aagah said, his voice low and soothing.

"Okay," - Haya replied, her voice still laced with fear.

Just as Aagah opened the door for her, a hail of bullets exploded from the front, sending them both ducking for cover.

"What's going on again? I'm scared, Ruhaan," Haya whispered, her voice trembling.

"Shh! Don't be scared, I'm here with you," Aagah whispered back, holding her close to shield her from harm.

Just as suddenly as it had started, the gunfire ceased, leaving an eerie silence. Aagah slowly peeked out from behind the car door. A vehicle was approaching them, its headlights casting an ominous glow.

Aagah swiftly ushered Haya into the back seat, his eyes scanning the surroundings for any signs of danger. The approaching car halted a few feet away, and Aagah warily emerged from behind the door, his senses on high alert.

A figure stepped out of the car, shrouded in darkness due to the dim lighting. Aagah's eyes narrowed, trying to discern the man's features.

"Aagah Ruhaan Siddiqui! Send Haya to me," -The stranger called out, his voice low and gravelly. "I'm not here to fight with you, nor do I want to."

Aagah turned to Haya, his eyes searching for answers. "Why is everyone after you? Why do you always end up in trouble whenever we meet?"

Haya frowned, her eyes flashing with an annoyance. - "How do I know? Do you think I invite problems myself?"

Aagah shot back, his tone laced with sarcasm. - "God, you carry problems wherever you go like they're on sale!"

Haya crossed her arms, her expression irritated. - "It's nothing like that."

Aagah countered, his voice rising. - "It is! Can't you see?"

Their argument escalated, with both Aagah and Haya talking over each other, their voices growing louder and more heated. The stranger, who had been waiting patiently, finally lost his temper.

"If you two are done arguing, can we please focus on what I asked?" - he exclaimed, his voice stern.

But Aagah and Haya were beyond reason. - "Can't you just shut up for a few minutes? Can't you see we're having an important discussion? Don't you have eyes?" - They yelled in unison, their voices echoing through the air, leaving the stranger speechless.
