Nandu stared at the screen on her lappy for don't know how long! Her eyes watered and a drop trickled down her eyes.

She seemed to have gotten a shock. The way she bore her pupils with the unclear photograph on the screen of her device, it looked as if there was a past attached to it.

Indeed it was because after blinking her eyes, nandu looked for her phone on the table. She rummaged through the pictures of her phone. She had more than eight thousand pictures including her own, screenshots and the images of some tabular data that has to be related to her work.

Nandini scrolled upwards until a 'secret' named folder came before her view. She clicked on it and a grid of several pictures appeared. When Nandu clicked on the very first pic, her mind simultaneously drifted away recalling some memories.

Flashback...

3 years ago,

Mumbai, India.

"What the heck! How long will it take for you to drive back home, Anthony?" Nandini grumbled wiping her forehead.

The driver looked at her through the rear view and answered, "I am sorry ma'am, but I don't think we'd be able to reach home anytime soon. The traffic is too much."

She let out an annoyed cry and fanned her face. The AC in the car could do no good to her because the sunny day of the mid summers was bad. Mumbai, no matter how beautiful it was, had a heck of climate that melted her make up severely.

She wiped it off with wet wipes and tied her hair in a bun. She was regretting to have agreed to her daddy! Jeez. Only if she had known that he will have to face such a bad day that too in summer than she would have never agreed to visit India for her cousins wedding.

Nandini was in Mumbai for her cousin's wedding. She didn't agree on the beginning but later said yes because her relatives wished to see her. Nandu was only a baby when she was taken away to San Francisco by her parents. She never visited India again until today.

She has grown up into a beatufuk beautiful woman, and that being the case, everyone from her relatives desired to meet her. More after they hear that she was going to take over her father's business this year.

Never mind, she sat impatiently in the car as the traffic and the constant noise of honking irritated her. "What the fuck! Go and check out what's going on Anthony." Her driver obeyed her at once and left the car.

She saw him walking further and never return. She waited for him but looked like he had suddenly vanished.

"Ugh, this guy!!!" She frustratingly sighed and came out of the car.

No sooner had she come out than her eyes left wide in shock as she could see a bunch of people crowding in the middle of the road. She strode past by some vehicles until she hit a spot where she could see everything clearly from.

Invariable gasps left her mouth when nandu noticed there was a guy standing in the middle of the crowd whilst holding someone. She could not see her face hence walked a little closer. She was right behind the crowded people and from between them her eyes directly fell on the face of that guy and an injured woman he held in his arms.

"Don't worry. We got you. You are safe. He won't be able to hurt you any longer. Just trust me and stay calm." She saw him saying aloud while his hand rubbed her arm.

When nandu looked a little bit more closer than she realized that the woman was in a very bad condition. Her clothes were torn, mouth bleeding and a bump on her temple while deep scratches and bruises stayed pink on her neck and sleeveless arms. She seemed to have been beaten by someone badly.

And when she read the features of the guy, she noticed that his knuckles were bleeding too. The guy was quite tall with a well toned body. He had light stubble with messy hair. Everything about him was appealing her.

"Ma'am you are here?" Nandu had to cut her gaze from the guy's face and look at her driver who appeared in front of her.

She pressed her lips in a thin line and eyed Anthony her driver, "Where have you gone? I had to come out to look for ya." She said taking a small heave.

"Apologies ma'am. I had to go there to inspect the matter." the driver answered.

"What happened? What is wrong with the girl and why is so scared and bruised up? Did that guy hurt her" She asked her driver while her finger pointed at the guy.

Although her heart said he was a mere saviour, she still used those words as that is what her brain assumed.

Her driver immediately shook his head negatively and stilled his eyes on her face, "He didn't hurt her ma'am. He rather saved her from getting molested in a running car." and said thus taking her by surprise.

Tbc...
