Seethu pov :-

I tried to open the door but it didn't open.
"hello, can anyone hear me ?... I'm locked here... Please help me ".. I shouted for help but no one heard me.
I fractionally looked for something to break the lock but found nothing..
My body was getting cold , I rubbed my plam together for warmth.
I sat down on the floor leaning on the wall..

I was wishing for someone to come and open the door. May be someone from the cooking staff might come to take ingridents ....may be..

I was shivering from cold, my eyes felt heavy I wanted to stay awake but it was hard to keep them open.

So this is how I gonna die, I haven't enjoyed my children's childhood. I was thinking about my children,
I don't want to die so early, I have to see my childrens teenage, my anu's first boyfriend, my Jackson's first night out, I havent even seen my nephew or Nicene who is yet to come into this world. I have to live , I want to live. I stood up and again tried to open the lock but nothing happened.

I don't know how long I have been in here. My whole body is shivering, my body felt numb. Suddenly my breathing became uneven, I find it difficult to breath. Soon darkness consumed .....

Xavier :-

I was searching for her since one hour I couldn't find her anywhere. Her phone buzzed, when I saw the caller ID I just wanted to brake the phone into pieces . But I controlled that urge.

It was James

I ignored his call and just searched for her.
Where the hell is she??

I saw her assistant , hoping that she might know where seethu is.. I went to her "do you know, where your boss is?" . I questioned her

"no, sir. Last time I seen her is one hour before, may be she is somewhere busy in preparations. Do you need sir? ". I shook my head.

"where was she, when you saw her last time? "..i questioned her.

"um.. Ah she went to cold storage, to pick up shopping bags. I haven't seen her since then".. She said and I nodded before walking towards cold storage.

Something isn't right, seethu is not a type of person who would take hours of time in doing one thing.

I went near the cold storage room, but it was locked from outside. I frowned

Where might she be?

I started searching in the hole house, it's almost midnight,everyone were
sleeping including the staff as the preparations for tomarrow were all done.  I thought she might be in her room. So I went to her room and just barged in, I thought I would be greated with her shocked or angry face but I was greated by empty bed room..

Where the fuck are you seethu?

She wasn't found in the whole mansion. I have a gutfeeling that something is wrong. I came back to the cold storage, I opened the door but the sight in front of me made my blood went cold.

My seethu was laying unconscious on the floor

I rushed to her, "hey seethu wake up,..". I said patting her cheeks . Her body was cold as ice.

Fuckk

I cursed under my breath, I scooped her in my arms and took her to my room. I was climbing stairs when I saw Ava coming in my direction. She stopped in her tack when she saw me with seethu in my arms.

Great timing

"what the hell, what you did to her? ". She shouted at me. I just ignored her and continued walk. For now my first priority is seethu.
