77: Green Eyes

"I have a deal for you."
Shardul spoke and Sahaj raised his eyebrows.

Apparently Shardul's slap had put some senses in his brain. He cleaned his room, bathed, groomed himself and finally got out of that goddamn room to have dinner with his family.

And he didn't know till now, but Shardul was now a part of the Kashyap family.

He's gonna have a big ass family if he marries Samidha, and that family was probably gonna get more love from his father.

"What kind of a deal?"
He asked and sat across him on the sofa.

Radha and his father were already in their rooms.

"I will help you find her."

"I don't want to find her."

"Do you really want to mess with me on my sister's matter?"
Shardul asked narrowing his eyes and Sahaj looked away and faked a cough.

He could still feel his head buzzing because of the slap he got in the morning.

"You cannot live without her and here you are giving me attitude. I'm the only man on this planet who can find her, you moron."

"Is this your genetic problem or something? You guys are so rude! She has called me a little shit more times than she called me love."
Sahaj complained and remembered that they weren't siblings.

"Guess fate puts together sibling like people together."
He mumbled and Shardul laughed. He was the most well spoken person on the planet Earth when he met her. And it was the first time Shradul was being so rude to someone.

"Fate also brings two desperate lovers together."

"It would've been easier had she not left me for that job of hers."

"She resigned. How many times do I have to tell you? She isn't working for R&AW. She's after Alessio."

Sahaj's eyes shot up.

"What? Why?"

"The blasts. Alessio had a big hand in it."

Shardul mumbled and shook his head in disappointment.

"She will kill him and I'm afraid she's messing with other people too. If the Russian alliances find her by any chance, she's dead."

Sahaj felt a fear set in his heart. Shardul was bragging about how Samidha would come back but now, he was afraid.

What if she really dies?

"What do I have to do?"

"Nothing. Just make sure you behave like a good little boy for your father. I'll handle the rest."

"Did you find anything?"
Sahaj asked and Shardul slipped two photos across the table.

They were sitting in Shardul's house, seven weeks later. Shardul had already made a trip to Indonesia and one to Bolivia.

It was a little girl's photo. Blue eyes, golden hair, pink plum lips, rosy cheeks and the most adorable smile a child could have.

"Who's this?"

"Swetlana Usvyatsov. She's the five year old daughter of Alek Usvyatsov, who is, right now one of the biggest gangsters in Russia. He hired a new piano teacher for his daughter."
