I too want a love story - KarEena

2(30). Scarred

Haseena is talking to her secret informer when Aira barges in with others, seeing them Haseena hurriedly ends the call.

"Madam sir, the reports are here," Aira said

Haseena nodded to continue, while fear gripped her heart.

"The blood is of a male and the fingerprints on the phone are of yours and Karishma Di's" Aira filled in.

Everyone sighed in relief.

"We know that Karishma is not seriously injured but we need to hurry, we still don't know who kidnapped her," Haseena addressed them, "what about the call logs?"

"Yes, Madam sir, we did go through them, there was a call from an unknown number, but it's done through a PCO," Parth filled in, "we asked for CCTV footage, it'll be here any minute"

"And any information about Anubhav?" Haseena asked

"Nothing as of yet Madam sir," Raj spoke, "but he just escaped one day ago, will he be able to pull it off in this limited amount of time?"

"Diablo" Haseena gritted her teeth, "if DSP mam is right and indeed Anubhav and Diablo are in cahoots, then it'll not take much time for someone like Diablo to execute this"

"Don't worry madam sir, Karu will be alright. Don't lose hope" Pushpa Ji placed her hand on Haseena's shoulder.

Haseena nodded, "team back to work, monitor every camera and find where they took Karishma"

"Jai hind, madam sir" they all went back to their work

"I'll promise to find you soon, Mi amor" Haseena looked out at the twilight sky, going home dreaded her, what would she answer Arshad was eating her alive. By now all their family were informed but Arshad

Haseena sighed going back to her desk, to check the footage. In any other circumstances, she would not have gone home but with no Karishma, she has a responsibility of two people to fill in.

Karishma sat on the couch, she had no idea how many hours had passed since she talked to Irene, by the look of the window, it was already dark.

A soft click brought her back, Irene entered with a covered plate, Carlos behind her but not as tense as in the afternoon.

"Have it" Irene passed the plate

Karishma nodded and placed it on the table near the couch.

"See Karishma, I thought about what you said, even though it pains me, I agree with you. I am an orphan, and I only had a brother in the name of family, even though he was absent most of the time, I knew he loved me dearly in his own way and I needed to prove worthy of that love in his own language. I don't want your son to go through what you and I had endured, longing for a family is painful, especially when you once experience the bliss of it" Irene sighed, "I'll go ahead with your plan and leave Haseena"

"Thank you so much Irene" Karishma held her hand, with tears in her eyes

"And you are not a prisoner here anymore," Irene nodded at Carlos

Carlos opened the door and called Ali.

"Ali meet my friend Karishma, she is our guest, I hope you take good care of her" Irene spoke.

Karishma confusingly looked at Irene and Carlos.

"Hello Sister, mein Ali, apko kuch bi jarurat ho tho please mujhe bulayiye" Ali smiled at her.
