Desire to kill

Waking up in Goa

Robin's POV:
I couldn't decipher what was happening around me. Everything was but a blur. I didn't know where I was now. There was a white bed on which I was sleeping and there was a single stand-alone cupboard at the right end corner of the room. The silent hum of sea waves was drumming over my head. I looked over my head to see a broken window. I got up wearily and stretched myself over the top part of the metal bed that I lay.
OMG!!! I almost shouted out loud. Where was I? What happened to me? Am I in heaven? Did Singh actually do something to me?
I lay down on the bed helplessly. I looked around me. Everything was perfectly clean. I went up to the cupboard to find some food. I am so hungry.  When did i even eat last?

I opened the cupboard that let out a small squeak. There were neatly arranged files in it. The first one bore my name. I freaked out and stepped away. I saw the bottom shelf had a pile of recently pressed dresses. I leaned forward to take it.

 "STOP! Don't touch that!", yelled someone as they banged the door before them. I recognised the voice immediately. I would remember it forever. It was Shreya's.  But...but.. wasn't I in the hospital? Oh damn. How did I even escape??

Shreya wore a blue knee length evening gown with floral prints in turquoise. Damn how was she pretty even after being so old. "Umm... I ... I am ...", i was blabbering utter nonsense.

"Haha! It's okay kid. I know you are really tired. I'll save the lecture of your escape for today. Let's tell it to you tomorrow. Now put the dress that I have kept in the bottom shelf and get ready soon. I'm kidnapping the kidnapper somewhere!", she winked at me. 

"Uhhh.... Where are we now??"

"Oh, we are in my guest house in Goa. I promise I'll tell you everything. But I need you to come with me now. Just please make it fast."

"IN GOA??... We were in Delhi today morning, and in Goa in the evening? . As far as i know I wouldn't have been allowed to move anywhere 'cause i guess i escaped from prison.... OMG! Who was even with me??? I need answers madam ", I yelled out to her as if I were in a trance. I was staring at her blankly in the midst of utter chaos.

" Duh! I am telling you I'll explain you all the stuff. Please now get ready and come with me ASAP.", she told me bluntly.

"But..... Where are we going?", i asked.

"What you always did in your life....... We're going to a party hosted by my client. Come on! It's Goa and we have to party.!!!", she told calmly, not worrying about the fate that I was in. 

I was blankly staring at the most confusing person I would have ever met. I had to comply with her wishes as she gave me the freedom that I always crave for. Freedom after doing a crime.  As she wanted I took the dress from the bottom shelf of the cupboard. It was a turquoise tee and rip jeans. Turquoise? Were we going as a couple? None of my business. It was her client. 

After a couple of minutes, I stepped out of the room. In front of me was a vast violet coloured wall that was adorned with the most beautiful paintings I laid my eyes upon. I stayed mesmerised for a split second and by then another piece of art caught my eye. Shreya, the angel that saved me. How did she do it?  Why is this woman so strong? I had many questions to which she had the answers.

Shreya came near me and snapped at me. "What are you looking at  Robin?", she asked me, her eyes radiating the warmth that drew me to her. 

"Uh....Nothing", I told her scratching my head. Damn she saw me looking at her.  I could feel the heat that flushed on to my cheeks. She smiled at me warmly, she knew what i was thinking. I bet she could read every man's mind. I was falling for an elder woman and I knew I was falling hard. Probably every client would have. I love you Shreya, and I don't know why....

"Come along fast!! We are already late!!", she drew me back into the real world. She held my hand and dragged me along. Her touch sent vague emotions to my head and back to my hand. I felt everything go numb. I have never experienced this feeling ever in life. She made me live for her. And I was lost in thoughts of her again.

She guided the way out and I was seated beside her in her Audi Q7. And we drove to the party in the party capital of India.
