Hey feeling a bit blue but here's the update

They had planned to meet again in the evening, to execute the first step.

Avni laid on the bed, tapping her fingers on the bed, shakingly. Neil noticed this and sat near her. "What happened, Av? You need something?" He asked and she opened her eyes at once. "I'm scared. What if I die-" She began but stopped as he kissed her. She held onto his arm, and was sobbing simultaneously.

He broke apart quickly. "Look, I told you right? Nothing will happen to you. To us. And we need to make a move first before she does." He said, cupping her face. "I.. They're going to kill me." She said, her lip quivering. She bit them looking here and there, hand on her forehead to stop herself from freaking out. "If something happens to our baby." She continued.

Neil sighed deeply and held her hand. "Even I'm scared. Let's hope we win." He replied. "As for the baby, she's a fighter. Just like her mother. I know she's bringing a struggle along with her but whatever happens, happens for good." He continued, a look of sympathy, pride, and fear in his eyes.

He hugged her tightly. Though, he was acting to be strong, he was scared. Scared of losing her, his son, and the unborn child.

They passed the day in each other's arms, giving strength to each other. As the time geared, they prepared themselves. Mowgli just seemed too happy. Every now and then he was muttering a loud BOOM. Neil chuckled softly at him while Avni muttered "He's going to change his views after this" under her breath.

The doorbell rang, indicating it was time. Avni sighed deeply, she didn't want any of this. She just didn't. Neil squeezed her hand reassuringly and gave his encouraging smile.

"I won't let that happen." He said and attended the door. Avni knew which statement he had answered.



"We get any aid at our side?" Avni asked, looking at them all. "Neil and Mitali have got guns." Ali said. Neil Mitali. Avni said again through gritted teeth. Neil didn't want to face her wrath so he said "Avni, Ali wants to say. Neil has got a gun. Mitali has got a gun." He corrected him while Ali gave a look like Bhai maine urdu mei bola?

"And?" Avni asked. "We've got you!" Shekhar said. "Yeah I've seen her fight goons at such a small age!" Kia exclaimed. "I've seen her save the life of Aladdin risking her own!" Chirped Akash. "She's done so much!" Aladdin said. "I've heard she's survived a bullet to the heart" "She was brave enough to hold a gun at Dayawanti!"

Avni clenched her fists. "GUYS!" She yelled loudly at them. "I k..know when it comes to hear all this, it sounds great. Trust me it isn't. You all don't know what it was like to have sheer pain in every month in my chest due to an attack, you don't know how its like to be in coma for almost two years. You don't know in that time I lost my parents. My mumma. Ayesha Ma, because of that accident. I'm scared to think of them. It isn't great." She yelled at them and everyone kept quiet.

"Let's go.." She said at once and they went.

Tiptoeing over the dry leaves, they went in quietly, the two guns ready behind. Neil was in front of Avni, Mitali behind the squad. Avni took the support of a tree. Pregnancy was making it more difficult for her. "I think you should go back." Neil said while she shook her head. "OUCH!" Came a voice from behind.

Riya had slipped into a muddy pool of water. They went surrounding her. "Who the hell asked you to wear heely shoes while coming? Look at your heels Riya!" Ali said glaring at her girlfriend. "Ek to I've fallen down, instead of asking how I am, you're scolding me." She complained and he helped her get up. Her hair were so messy. Kia had spoiled herself as well, as Riya took her hand while falling down and she fell as well.

Avni rolled her eyes and they went in. The grasses were so bushy and thorny by the end of reaching everyone had cuts on their faces except Mowgli who was walking down as he was small and Avni who was protected by Neil.

They reached there.

"Oh boy such a heavy guarding." Akash said as they all were looking around. "They're guys. Not so hot ones." Kia whined while Akash gave her a glare. "Well we need to lure them so that they're away, and we go in." Aladdin said. "How'd we distract them?" Akash asked. "Well for guys, the biggest distraction is hot girls." Ali said and Avni ignored them and looked for other way, distancing herself.

"Our ladies are badly spoilt here." Ali reminded them all. "Except for Avni." Shekhar said.

They all looked at her. She was glowing exceptionally good in the moonlight. Her blue eyes reflected the stars. Blond hair, felt so good.

"She's going to steal hearts. Let's send her." Ali said with a huge stupid grin.
