Recap

"We've not been entirely honest with each other have we?" He asked, breaking the quietness.

I pulled back and looked into his chocolate brown eyes, "No."

-X- 19. Sydney?Sydney. -X-

"Come let's sit." He said pulling me to the bed. I followed him. He sat down and I sat right besides him. "Let's make a deal."

"A deal?" I piqued. "Yes a deal." He said holding my chin up gently. "A truth for a truth. You tell me who are you and I'll tell you what was planned. If you look at the situation carefully, it's a win-win situation for both of us."

I stared at him.

"So..." he trailed bringing his hand forward to confirm the deal.

The plan, the mastermind, the sound strategy which took away my once found happiness. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, I should not let it go. Damn it, I can't let it go anyways. I need my answers. And about the part of him getting to know my past, he already knows a lot about it.

"Deal." I agreed, shaking his hand.

"Who'll start? You or me?" He asked looking doubtful.

"I will. I will tell you a story. A story of a little girl and her life without the umbrella...

This all started when she turned thirteen, her messiah, her father dies of heart attack. There is a blue book which she now owns, it was the last thing ever to be held by her father.

After her father'sdeath, the little girl fell into depression. The depression slowly turned into something worse and she fell into bad company. SHe became a part of one of the biggest gangs in India; KHUNKHAR. There her innocent phase was lost.

Pretty soon, she became a drug addict and a cold-blooded murderer.

She pretty much had to kill about one person every day. Being strong-willed and drug influenced, she found no difficulty in doing so. The blood helped her to get her father out of her head.

There she became friends with Amir, the don's son. Finding someone of her age she became too close to him and they had dated for a bit.

Around the age of fifteen, she was caught by the police red-handed, murdering a young lady. She was sent to juvie. Being declared mentally unwell by the attendant there she was sent to a mental asylum. She was kept there for a year, diagnosed as a depressed person.

By the time she left the place, her addiction had stopped and she had barred herself from seeing the gang again. SHe wentback to school andtriedto be a normal kid. Catching up was no big deal for her because studying had always been a piece of cake for her"

I paused and thought, now for the real drama... Taking a deep breath I continued.

"On her sixteenth birthday, Amir came to visit her. He asked her to come back to the gang, but she refuses. This infuriates him and he shoots her mother and brother down. It was then that she realized that he had never liked her, it was all about the heat.

After this incident she and her sister were taken under the guardianship of her uncle in UK. There she changed her and her sisters name. She excelled academically and achieved a lot within the span of next two years. She then applied to some of the top colleges to continue her studies and was admitted in MIT with 100% fee wavier. And she accepted the offer."
