People usually find some way to return to home whenever or however he/she gets lost --- and when Mayur ran away from FBI, feeling lost she reached her's......

yes! her home

Ezekiel's huge mansion became her home without her even realizing, though her legs stayed rooted right where she stood, outside.

she first arrived 2 hours ago and she just waited in front of the main gate hidden out of sight,  never knocked nor entered.

She doesn't know why, or maybe she did. for one, this would be the first place NYPD and FBI both would try to find her and second she doesn't know how she would explain all of these to Zeke or her family members, she doesn’t remember a thing, which was strange.

So, she decided to go to her apartment on foot again, thanks to the bastard who trashed her only car and for obvious reason she couldn’t risk taking a cab.

the apartment she bought here in New York, the same year just few months after she got married because her dear husband's proposal of not sharing the same roof and yet she felt the need to be in close proximity of her husband, she'd stay here for awhile sometime

of course nobody knew about it because she never thought of buying her own place, being only child of an Indian mother and American father....everything belongs to her and her cousin after her parents, her mother went hysteric when she first simply mentioned of moving out Parrish house.

Noyon would have had a heart attack had she ever mentioned about buying her own apartment, because according to her mother that would mean in future there would be a chance of her going away, Noyon was always against of her once lost daughter leaving her sight, even her father agreed with her mother, she still remembers the look of her parent's face when she returned, the shock, the disbelief, the happy tears,  when DNA test came out positive.

Just as she was about to unlock the main door of her flat she noticed something -- the lock, there was something wrong with it, it was loose  and little faint scratches around it. Of course she would notice tiny details, years of staying under Igor Velkovski's wings taught her many things.

Someone tried to open it with another mean, A forced entry

she realized it's already opened and her heart skipped beat and started thumping loudly, hair of her neck stood up......she pull out her tiny pistol which Marianna gave her before she left her on that street and holding onto it tightly in one hand she twisted the lock with other hand and entered.

It was dark and very very quite, but instead of smelling musty since it's been vacant for quite a long time, it actually smelled normal as if someone was actually using this flat for quite some time.

She bit her lips hard, was having a very hard time stopping herself from having a panick attack, whatever happened 9 years ago was one thing but what was happening right then was an entirely different.

in past she somehow knew that she was alone, that, no one of her family was in her reach, that, she had to defend and protect herself so she was always on guard and just when she lowered it this had to happen!

why fate had to be so cruel to her ?

Now, where was her family ?

so close yet so far... she couldn’t even reach them or they would be in trouble too.

speaking of them, did they even tried to find her after news got out of her involvement in a bombing attack ?

would they blame her for this too ?

What if they do ?

How will she prove her innocence to them ?

She shook her head, surely they would not blame, they knew her.
