Dil bharta nahi
Aankhein rajjti nahi
Dil bharta nahi
Aankhen rajjti nahi

Chaahe kitna bhi dekhti jaaun
Waqt jaaye main rok na paaun
Tu thodi der aur thehar ja sohneya
Tu thodi der aur thehar ja

A Few Weeks Later

The shadows were my allies tonight as I crept through the darkened hallway toward the basement.

Their eyes widened in surprise as I appeared, my finger pressed to my lips.

“Ria?” Khan whispered, struggling to keep his voice low. “How did you get down here?”

“It took some planning” I replied, glancing around nervously.

“But I don’t have much time. We need to talk.”
