Hidden Flames ....♡

< part 4 >

Meera had a blank expression looking at herself in the mirror.
Aditi sighed at her whereas Anaya kept roaming around while being on the call.

"Yaar ye phone kyu nahi utha raha"
Meera heard Anaya's words and looked at herself ,

He really won't come..?
Then what about me...?
About us..?

The door opened and the girls looked at Esha who came to take meera out.

Meera got up and looked at her mother who smiled a little at her.
She adjusted meera's hair a little and said
"Ye sab tere bhale ke liye hai"

Esha held her hand and was about to move but stopped hearing meera
"Meri marzi ke khilaaf jaa kar....."

Esha's smile faded away
"Tera ye bhram kab door hoga meera....
Kaha hai vo...?
Pyaar karta hai na...?"

Meera kept quiet as she didn't have anything to say ,
Anaya kept dialing Vikrant's phone number.

Meera still pleaded
"Please maa...thodi der"

Esha sighed
"Bas...ab is baare me koi baat nahi hogi..."
She turned towards aditi and Anaya and continued
"Paanch minute se ise lekar bahar aajaana , vo log aa chuke hai"

Saying this she went out and meera sat on the bed tiredly
Anaya glanced at meera and tried his number again.
Moving towards her she sat on her knees and asked
"Tujhe pakka yakeen hai vo aayega meera....vo ek bhi call receive nahi kar raha hai"
Meera was still blank
"Vo aayega pakka...."
Aditi was pissed listening to her sister
"Aur nahi aaya to..."
There was a silence for a moment but meera broke it
"To phir main vinay se shaadi kar lungi..."
She said suppressing her emotions.

A black van arrived in front of a building ,
A few men ran towards it covering the vehicle completely .
One of the man came near the driver and whispered something and the other man nodded in agreement.

The place and the entrance of the building was so crowded that no one can even see the people present inside it.

Soon the van went away and all the men entered the building along with the people who just got down from the van.
Their faces were covered with black mask and all of them wore the same colour.
No one can even identify their genders.
The man who spoke to the driver pushed all the people inside and locked the door. He stood in front of the door and knocked a little.
Getting the permission he slowly entered the room and greeted the man who sat on the huge luxurious chair while leaning back.

"The stock is here ,
Aur pichli baar se kuch kam aaya hai"
The man said with the hint of fear.
While the person who sat on the chair opened his eyes and looked front.
He didn't say anything for a moment but spoke later on
"Koi baat nahi...jitna aaya hai..uski dekhbaal ache se honi chahiye....aur yaad rahe hamare yaha mehmaan ko kami na ho.."

The man stood in front was surprised listening to his boss.
Any loss in business and his boss would fire half of the staff but here is....so calm.

The man nodded hastily and went away.

Meera's heart raced as the time passed
She controlled her tears somehow .

She looked at her family who were happily preparing for their engagement which will be held now..
She loved Vikrant so much but also felt bad when her family titled her love as forbidden.
Vinay who sat beside her looked at meera and asked
"Are you okay meera..."

Meera nodded slowly
Vinay again questioned
"Are you happy.."

She didn't answer this , she wasn't happy.
Meera suddenly glanced at Anaya who was still busy dialing his number.
