"Kali Kali get up. " yara shook Kalila to wake her up, "what happened everything okay? " Kalila asked jumping and sitting straight as soon as she got out of sleep, "we have landed , congratulations you are in India. " yara said with a big smile and Kalila smiled back, they all got up from there seats and moved out after everything was done, it was already seven to eight in the night by the time they reached out of the airport so, Kalila quickly called her father with the new phone she bought and went to them, as soon as she saw her father she ran to him and hugged him tight, " I missed you so much. " her father said while laughing, " I miss you the most. " Kalila said as her eyes shinned with tears, "Oyee moti (hey fatty.) " Kalila heard a voice and pepped to see her big brother standing at a distance from them watching them with his hands on his hips, her eyes went wide in happiness and she ran to him to give him a hug, "I missed you bhaijaan. " Kalila said and started to cry, "I missed you too shorty. " her brother replied with a chuckle, "have you been doing well?, have daddy been taking his medicines regularly?, have ammi been taking care if herself?, how's bhabhi?, is she pregnant? " Kalila blurted out everything she had been meaning to say to them , her bhaijaan smacked her head as the last words left her mouth and his face turned red with embarrassment, "have you got shameless staying out? " her bhaijann mocked making Kalila pout, "and no there is no such good news. " her brother informed, Kalila chuckled and then shook her head. "I have a surprise for you though. " her brother whispered in her ear making her raise an eyebrow, he cleared his throat and then moved out of the way to show Kalila's mother , Kalila's eyes went wide and her mouth feel agape on seeing her mother, tears trickled down her eyes as her mother came and gave her a hug , "have you been eating well? " her mother asked and she just nodded her head in a yes, "what.. *sniffs* ..about you? " Kalila asked ,her mother smiled at her, "you have grown up so much." her mother commented as even her eyes started to get watery, " I missed you so much. " Kalila said to her mother as she patted her back, "everything is gonna be okay darling we got you. " her mother comforted her and she nodded with a smile, "but why did you came ammi? " Kalila asked her mother concerned, "because I wanted to meet you. " her mother answered plainly making Kalila chuckle, just then her phone rang grabbing her attention, she looked at the number for a minute, "who is it?, you know that number? " her bhaijaan asked while placing a hand on her shoulder and she nodded, "it's.. Loki. " Kalila said looking at the phone blankly, "give me the phone I will talk to that as.. " her bhaijaan stopped midway as he noticed that he was surrounded by his family, "you shouldn't pick it up. He can track us down by talking. " her father said and she nodded, "okay then what are we waiting for let's go home. " afif said with a pout and they all chuckled, "yeah you guys should get going so that I can also leave. " Kalila said making both afif and yara look at her with confusion written all over there faces, "what is that supposed to mean appi? " afif asked her to which Kalila didn't said a single word and forwarded towards him to give him a hug, " I will miss you guys a lot take care." Kalila said with her eyes filled with tears again, she felt that she wasn't herself anymore it was all a do or die situation for her now. "no no...please don't tell me that you are not coming with us appi, please don't do this to us. " afif begged grabbing his sister tight, she patted his back while clucthing his shirt tight with her other hand, "hey look at me afu, you are big guy right?, it's gonna be okay trust me just think that I am living abroad like I used to and it will be totally fine and if that doesn't works think that you had only a big brother no sister okay? " Kalila comforted afif while cupping his face in her hand and caressing his cheeks with her fingers, he just shook his head in a no while grabbing the hem of her hoodie tightly, "you always say appi trust me but it always ends up bad last time you said me to trust we were caught cooking instant noodles at night,but that is what keeps reminded that I have a sister whom I love so much that I can't live thinking that I don't have one so please don't say that appi please don't I have a sister and that's you, please don't leave me. " her brother begged while everyone cried, "I can't go home afu because I have clearly stated in the phone call with daddy that I will go home, so the first place he will search me is our home the best thing is that he wouldn't attack directly but would wait till he sees any chances that I am home then only he will get you guys. " Kalila explained to her brother and then turned to her father, "you are the best father in the world. " Kalila commented while hugging her father tight, her father who was the strongest person in them all was reduced to tears and was crying violently , "bhaijaan take care of them , I will text you if I think that it's safe to do and take care of everything else too. " Kalila instructed her big brother while she gave her mother and father a final hug, "you guys got what I asked you for? " Kalila asked her father and he nodded handing her a bag , "take care. " her father said and she nodded, "I don't want you all getting dragged in this so take care lovelies. " Kalila said to yara and gave her a hug, "we will always be best sisters? " yara asked Kalila and she nodded with a chuckle, "ammi daddy I don't know what will give you guys comfort but all I can say is that no matter where I stay if it is away from that guy I will always be happy, if it's to hard for you guys to live with the idea of what happened just think that I am living abroad or you have already gave me my final farewell after wedding or if even that doesn't works just think that all I was in your memories, it was all a delusion that you even had a daughter. " Kalila stated while her parents shook there heads in a no, she wiped both of there tears and then smiled at them, "I am sorry because of me you guys will and have already went through so much. " Kalila whispered to then both and then kissed both of there cheeks, they both kissed her forehead and then she waved then all off as they all left to go to Ranchi, Kalila's home town which she wouldn't be able to visit every again, she kept on waving at them with a smile till the time there car wasn't turned into a tiny match box in Kalila's view, as soon as they disappeared Kalila broke down there and at that exact moment, she dropped down to her knees and started to cry violently. Just then her phone rang, she quickly wiped off her tears and got back to her feets as she noticed that people were giving her looks, she without even thinking picked up the call and connected her phone to her ears. "hell.. "
"did you missed me brown sugar ? " the voice that sounded from the other side of the phone made Kalila get goosebumps, she stiffened on hearing his voice, "Ahh seems like you lost your voice. " Loki said and laughed making Kalila flinch, "you didn't do a good job by running away to kolkata do you think it will take time for me to reach you, oh let me guess you are again thinking of running away from there aren't you?, *laughs* no matter where you run to my brown sugar I will get you back to me, because you are mi... " Kalila quickly hanged up and then got her sim card out, she broke the sim card into two pieces and then tossed it into the air, "I am done with these shits ." she whispered to herself and then headed to the washroom Inisde the airport see quickly changed her clothes and wore the burgundy nakab that she had asked her father to get, she did a little makeup so that nothing looked off , when she was searching through the bag that her father gave her she found that he had put some money along with a small Note , ' I think you will need this so I got you some four to five lakh.
-Love you daddy ' , she transferred the money into her bag and then looked at the note again , she gave the note a look after that pushed it inside her bag and then moved out of the airport, she quickly made her way out of the airport only to bump into someone and fall back. "I am really sorry madam. " the guy who Kalila bumped into apologized as she quickly got back on her feet, "it's fine. " she said in a voice shriller than her orginial voice, "you are sure about that? " the guy said looking deep into her honey brown eyes with his bluish green ones, "do I know you? " the guy asked her and she shook her head in a no, "ofcourse not." she said in a shriller voice and then started moving, "sorry for that. " he apologized as Kalila moved away she waved her hand , she quickly got to the taxi stand and asked the taxi driver to take her to the Railway Station, once she had got settled inside the taxi she pulled off her veil from her face taking in a breath off relief, "ya Allah thanks from saving me from again falling into that hell. " Kalila thanked God while remembering what just happened, 'do I know you?' , she had just bumped into Loki and thanks to the burkha that saved her, she sighed in content and then spent the whole journey to the Railway Station looking out of the window, when she reached the station she took the ticket of all the trains that were about to leave in the next thirty minutes to each city respectively, after that she sat in one of the trains which was supposed to be going to manali . Once inside the train she sat back with a relived look, finally she got the freedom she Had been looking for all this time.

Flashback start's

Kalila sighed, "daddy I need you guys do something will you please do that.. " Kalila requested to her father with tears in her eyes,
"of course my daughter. " her father said with a small laugh to lighten the mood, "I love you daddy... Okay what I need you to do is that when we get to kolkata, you need to bring a burkha of my size along with a two to three pairs of my clothes.." Kalila instructed with a dead serious face, "but you are about to come home right? " her father asked her making her stiffen and there was silence for a few moments, "no.. I can't go home, if I go with you guys it will only bring our whole family in danger. " Kalila stated as a lone tear slipped her eyes, she sniffed and then sighed, "I understand my baby whatever you would do will be the best. " her father supported her decision while he already had tears running down his face, "thank you daddy, you are the best daddy ." Kalila said with a sad smile and her father smiled while wiping his tears, "and you are the best daughter now tell me the whole plan. " her father stated , "okay so see, when I get to the airport here in London I will take a new phone with a new SIM to contact you guys and I am pretty sure by the time I reach kolkata Loki would know about me getting to India and surely he will come after me. so what you guys have to do is come and take yara along afif with you home, what I am gonna do is go to the Railway Station from the airport and then run away to Any other city. " Kalila stated, "but why Railway Station?, why not airport? " her father asked her to which Kalila smiled, "it's common daddy if he comes here, the first place he will be at would be the airport and even if I get a ticket before that and hide from him, he can check the CCTV footage of the airport and can know which cities flight I boarded. " Kalila explained to which her father mouthed an oh, "and as soon as i get to the Railway Station I will take tickets of all the trains that are supposed to go to any city in India or after buying those tickets I can just simply return back to home and even if he gets back these recording and hear's my plan , it will still be harmless for me and you all. " Kalila stated the obvious making her father smile with proud, "you are extremely smart my daughter. " Kalila's father confessed with pride making Kalila smile, she never thought that now after what all had happened she could have been able to hear those words and then they hanged up after a little more while.
