Now it was morning, Shera and Bhanu, still waited outside. Shera had slept for a while, but Bhanu was awake. Shera was now, very eager to see what Bhanu wanted to show. Shera and Bhanu lived with each other forever, and knew each other too well. Shera knew how important sleep is for Bhanu, he never skips his sleep.

"Bhanu you didn't sleep?", questioned Shera, astonished.

"No, what I had seen yesterday, is enough to steal my sleep forever", replied Bhanu.

"Bhanu, you have still not told me why did you bring me here?", questioned Shera

"You will see it, any minute now", replied Bhanu, then added, "What ever happened yesterday, I know they won't stay here", said Bhanu with confidence.

Sitting ideal for about 3-4 hours, they saw movement. Guards on the gate were moving in and out of the villa. Bhanu and Shera were diagonal to the gate, so they saw the main door of the house as well. They saw some men, bringing suitcases and airbags outside and keeping them inside the train of cars lined up in the front porch.

A fat, smiling man came outside, talking to the guard. His one hand was on the guards shoulder, and the guard clearly was nervous.

"This is the husband? The Zuhaan fellow?", questioned Shera

"Shera, I told you that the man was difficult to control. You think he is difficult to control?", questioned Bhanu sarcastically. Shera just rolled her eyes and they both continued observing the housemates.

Two more fellows came outside, one with a fair complexion and cheerful smile, another; a dark one, his smile hidden behind a mass of facial hair. These men were followed by an old man, who was walking slowly as compared to the boys in front. Shera turned to Bhanu, when he moved his head in decline. Then a tall, grumpy looking strong fellow came out of the house and stood there.

"This is the one. The husband", said Bhanu, as soon as Zuhaan came out

"Zuhaan", uttered Shera, then added, "so what is so interesting about him?"

"Not him. Not the husband, the wife", said Bhanu, stressing on wife.

Shera was facing Bhanu, and they were discussing all this when, Shera saw Bhanu's eyes widen in extreme astonishment, as a reflex to this Shera turned around. She replicated the astonishment on Bhanu's face, but it was hundreds times it's multiple. What Shera saw, but, was nothing but herself. The rosy lips, the pink cheeks and the talking eyes. She noticed a similar smile spread across the face, that she saw in the mirror last morning. Shera noticed the similar blush, spread across the face, that she just saw in the rare view mirror. Soon, however, Shera noticed the black, thick, braided long hair; the royal blue and white frock suit and a wide blue veil, Shera soon realised that it wasn't a mirror, although it looked like one. She also saw, that the eyes, though had the same vocabulary, but did a different talking. The language that these eyes spoke were different. These eyes, were not like hers, that were angry, but these eyes talked peace and love. These were calming and also scared. Her waist had nothing but an arm, of her husband, guiding her to the car door, like a gentlemen; where as hers, had a gun. She was exiting a grand house, that she will never come back to, probably to live in a much bigger house, that was her home, whereas Shera lived in a stranded hut.

Shera was astonished, shocked out of her wits. She couldn't believe what she saw. The girl was her lookalike, an exact photocopy.

"Now you know why we couldn't fight her?", said Bhanu. Shera, however, was too shocked to reply to this. She was not even listening to what Bhanu was saying. She was just staring at Shiza. She found her actions, smile, gestures, odd. They were too soft, too caring and filled with too much love. It was odd for her to have back hair, and soft dress. She never wore anything like that. She always wondered, how can one fight in those. Shera had a completely different style and taste altogether. For her, it was odd to look at herself, with all that soft look and; what was more odd, was a Gentleman's arm. Shera was still deep in astonishment and disbelief, Bhanu however, continued his ranting.
