Even Odds Of Meeting You ✔

Chapter- 5

Aahan

The instructor got distracted by the footsteps resonating in the empty garage. He turned around and found the burly Tweedle dee and Tweedle dum approaching him.

"Where were you both?!" The instructor asked them.

"Sir, we went on a morning walk." Replied Tweedle dee cheerily.

"How were you both even walking?" The instructor asked in wonderment.

"With legs." Said Tweedle dum.

"How come? Because I think, BOTH OF YOUR BRAINS HAVE GOTTEN STUCK IN YOUR KNEES! HOW CAN YOU LEAVE THESE TWO ON THEIR OWN?!" The instructor boomed as he approached the burly guys and yanked both of their ears, making them stoop to his level of height. "Also, what's the need to come back now?" He tugged their ears further. All the while, I and Anya were silently enjoying the circus.

"Sir, we are here to tell you that as you had instructed, we informed the girl's father and he is outside with the money. Also, no police is involved or informed, we have everything under surveillance." Expression stricken with pain, both of the burly guys uttered synchronously which made Anya seem alert.

The instructor pushed them both away, making them land on their butts and ordered, "free them of the ropes."

Tweedle dee came to the pole to which Anya and I were tied and while opening the ropes he said, "Sir, her father got to know our place." "No worries, none of the three are returning from here. Also, we have to find the damn phone and clear the evidence." Assured the instructor.

I needed to do something as things were escalating and getting grave. While my mind was occupied to look for a way out of the situation, I felt something soft on my legs. On looking down, I found a rodent having it's time of life.

As soon as the ropes came off, I kicked out my leg towards Anya making the rodent jump on her. "Aahhh!!!! Aahhh!! Aahhh!!" She howled like a hyena and started running all around the garage with the rodent dashing right behind her. With me running after her right behind the rodent and with the three clowns running right after me.

In a spur of moment, I caught Anya's hand and sprinted towards the exit. "Catch them! Make sure they don't get away!" The instructor shouted.

"Aahan...be quick, he's loading the gun!" She proclaimed.

"What? The gun was empty?!" I was discontented at the fact of getting duped twice.

"NO SOUL WILL BE LEFT TO LIVE THE NEXT MOMENT IF MY DAUGHTER HAS GOTTEN EVEN A SCRATCH!" At the exit stood Anya's father in his ever intimidating aura and another branded suit.

"PAPA!" Anya hastened her steps.

"Are you alright, my child? I heard your scr-"

"You! I should've known you would stoop this low as to kidnap my daughter for money!" He said as he approached me while picking up a wooden rod he found lying on the garage floor. Silence prevailed and everybody came to a halt.

Abruptly, I left Anya's hand. Raising my hands in surrender, I rambled backwards. "Sir, it's not what it's seems!" I tried to elucidate but his expression indicated that he will have his way.

"He was even thinking to charge extra for returning a runaway bride." Said Tweedle dee smirking. Anya and I both glared at him.

"Anya will be taken care of but I should've also known that you can stoop so low as to conspire with this traitor." Her father exclaimed and looked at the instructor, who looked like he don't have a care in the world.

"Sir, I know you know everything but still nothing." Sometimes, I hate how my mouth works. As soon as I saw her father aiming the rod at me, I crouched down. "OW!" Turning around, I found Tweedle dum was holding his head.

"Aahan!" As Anya approached me a shot went through the air.

"There were four bullets. Now, only three are left. Perfect for three people." The instructor said aiming the gun at Anya.
