"What do you mean I was gifted to you?"
"It is not good to eavesdrop but you heard it right. You are a gift that was forcefully imposed on me."
"Y-You... are.... lying..."
"Am I? You know what? Gift is a very fancy term for you. 'Trash' suits you be...

As I had ordered Sudhir and Sudeep, they dropped me in the neighbour locality of my house and left soon. I strolled on the vacant road and reached my home after half an hour. As expected, the door was open, and I heard Yuvaan shouting in the distance.
"I don't know anything else, Adi! Stop telling me to calm down for fuck's sake," Yuvaan yelled.
"Yuvi, I am doing my best, okay? How will I work if you keep hanging on my back like a ghost?" Advait argued.
They continued arguing, resulting in Advait throwing his phone at Yuvaan. He told my husband that even if I was in some kind of trouble, I was able to defend myself, not to forget that I had my personal gun with me - I didn't need to use it at all though.
While Shaurya tried to keep my husband calm, Advait took updates from his employees about the situation. Just like earlier, Yuvaan waited for a few minutes and asked Advait if he found any clue. When Advait gave him an annoyed look, Yuvaan huffed and said that he would himself go and check again.
"Yuvaan, you will exhaust yourself at this rate. You were searching for Reyna the whole night too," Shaurya scolded him. "Adi will find her. Don't worry."
"But how can I just sit around, knowing that my wife is in trouble?"
"He is right, Yuvaan," I said, making everyone turn their heads in my direction slowly.
I stood at a distance from the guys, allowing themselves to take their time. While Advait didn't look that much surprised, Shaurya stared at me like an owl. But most importantly, my spouse was in the worst condition. His beautiful hair was looking like haystack, his eyes were bloodshot, and face pale as ash.
"Reyna!"
I was in Yuvaan's arms within milliseconds, and he crushed me as if he had never seen me in ages. I told him that I was okay, but he rambled how he was sorry for not being able to save me and how much worried he was for my safety.
"I am alright as you can see," I said.
He broke the hug and checked me all over if I got hurt somewhere. Shaurya asked me how I vanished so suddenly. When I told him that I was kidnapped, he narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
"You were kidnapped, so how are you unharmed?" he asked.
"I don't know." I shrugged.
"You know who abducted you?" Advait inquired.
"Nope. I didn't see their faces as I was blacked out the whole time," I lied.
"At least, you are okay." Yuvaan gave a small smile. "But how did you come home by yourself?"
"That also I don't know. The whole kidnapping is a blank to me. I found myself lying on the ground an hour ago and recognized the area, so I dashed to our home instantly," I said, feeling a little bit guilty for lying to everyone.
