Where Ever You Go I Am There

Part 9

Sakshi sat in her cabin...she had to be sad and disappointed because she couldn't accompany him today but it felt like a big relief to her....as if she was breathing again freely and the suffocation was less in this solitude....One for the plain reason that she was saved from the false acts for a day and next for the reason that she escaped Arjun's glares which were making her feel guilty each moment when they were together.

But little did she know that all her relief was going to go to hell in the next few minutes....Her phone rang snapping her out the thoughts.....

******************************

"Helllooo" her voice stuttered as she picked the call. She knew it was him but she couldn't understand what mistake she had done this time to get his call.....

A brief laugh was his reply before he turned to serious talk...."Sakshi....dont you think you should be with Arjun and not in office at this time?"

Sakshi hesitantly replied, "maine khoshish kiya tha...."

He cut her short abruptly, "khoshish is never in my dictionary honey....Agar maine ek kaam diya hai toh you just have to do it.....hook or crook, that's not my botheration.....Just do it...."

Sakshi: but....

"NO BUT here Miss Sakshi Anand.....woh club gaya hai, right? Ab jaldi se utto....jaao usske peeche peeche"

His stern orders made her tremble thinking about the repercussions. She was trapped from both sides. She couldn't refute doing this and at the same time, what will she tell Arjun..He had asked her not to come. Now how will she go there....The man at the other end of the call wasn't one bit bothered about her thoughts....he added, "tumaare desk ke neeche ek packet hai.....Get changed to that and go....remember what your mission is Sakshi....Focus on that......usske khareeb rehna...usse apne paas laana....He should become a puppet in your hands......Do whatever but get him into your hands Sakshi....Do you understand?"

Sakshi knew that this was next impossible...She had agreed to it before without a choice but after meeting ACP Arjun Rawte and knowing more about him, she was now sure that nothing of that was going to happen but how could she tell it to the heartless and most ruthless criminal who was using her as a bait to corner someone as sharp and focused as Arjun....But did she have a choice? Not really.....She tried to explain, "You are underestimating your opponent"

He snarled angrily at that, "I am not.....Thats why I chose the hot stunning beautiful Miss Sakshi Anand for this mission...."

She felt disgusted at herself when she heard him praise her physical beauty....She couldn't but feel like some creepy animal and its eyes roaming all over her....She felt she would puke.....She breathed in deeply to overcome that feeling. There was no point prolonging the call or the talk. She decided to let go as always...

She had no choice but nod, "hmmm" mentally preparing herself for getting scolded from Arjun for disobedience.....Before she cut the call, he added like threat, "don't try to double cross me....ek aur baar try kiya toh tumaare papa ko bhool hi jaana......aur haan ek baat aur...khareeb jaana, usska focus hattaane ke chakkar mein khud hi pyar vyar mein padh matth jaana....You dare not fall for his charms honey"

Sakshi couldn't help a sarcastic yet faintest chuckle there...weak and sad one though...."don't worry....I have thrown away my heart the moment I agreed to do whatever you say in return for my papa's life......agar dil hota toh aise kaam kabhi nahi kar paathi...."

He smirked at her emotional outpour, "Enough of your emotional bhaashan.....mujhpe inn sab ka asar nahi hoga....."

She just replied weakly, "I know"
