Recap : Agnes and Yuvin had a good time.

**The next morning** 

Aishu was sitting on the table in her room, lost in thought.

The sunlight streamed through the windows, but her mind was clouded.

She was biting her nails, a nervous habit she couldn't shake off when she was anxious.

The silence of the morning was broken by a knock on the door. 

Stephan stood there, his face drawn and worried. 

"Aishu, do you have any other number for Agnes?" he asked, his tone strained. 

"What happened, Stephan?" Aishu responded, immediately alert. 

"Yuvin told me he'd leave at 7 am and promised to call me once he reached the airport. But now it’s almost 11, and I haven’t heard from him.

His number is switched off, and Agnes’s phone is also unreachable. I’ve been trying since morning. He hasn’t come online, hasn’t opened any office apps. It’s not like him. Everything seems... weird," Stephan explained, running a hand through his hair. 

Aishu's heart sank. She couldn't help but think, *Did Agnes finally talk to Yuvin about the divorce? Did they fight?* 

She grabbed her phone and tried to call Agnes herself, but there was no luck. 

"Why are you so tense? Did Agnes tell you something? Did she say anything about Yuvin?" Stephan pressed, noticing her fidgety behavior. 

"No," Aishu said quickly, but her face betrayed her emotions. She was biting her nails again, sweat forming on her forehead. 

Stephan narrowed his eyes and folded his hands.

"Aishu, you’re sweating. What’s going on?" 

"She’s my friend! How can I stay calm if I can’t reach her? Please, try to contact his family or anyone who might know something.

After a minute

"  Yuvin might have hurt her. She’s innocent, Stephan. Please save her!" Aishu pleaded, her voice trembling. 

Stephan was taken aback.

"Hurt her? Why would Yuvin hurt Agnes? She’s his wife!" 

"Don’t ask me anything else, Stephan. Just... please, find them," Aishu begged. 

Now thoroughly alarmed by her words and behavior, Stephan decided to call Aarav, who was still at the family guesthouse. 

On the other side,

Aarav was busy packing his bags when his phone buzzed. 

"Hi, brother," Aarav greeted Stephan cheerfully. 

"Aarav, are you still at the guesthouse?" Stephan asked, his voice tense. 

"Yeah, we’re just about ready to leave. We’ll head out in about an hour," Aarav replied. 

"Can you do me a favor? I’ve been trying to reach Yuvin since morning. His phone is off, and Agnes’s number is unreachable too. Please check on them and call me back," Stephan requested urgently. 

"Sure, I’ll check. Give me a moment," Aarav said, cutting the call. 

He walked to Yuvin’s room, knocking on the door.

"Brother! Brother!" he called out, but there was no response. 

After a few seconds, Aarav knocked louder, shouting, "Yuvin! Agnes! Are you both there?"
