*******************************************

There he sat in the Bar Corner 🍺 that was there in his house. His sipped down his whiskey, eyes showing no emotions but mind just working in the direction of we can say in the flashback!

Flashback of her words , the ones which she said just an hour ago, his mistake, his actions that hurted her soo Deep down, that she no more could hold back her emotions.

And went on saying whatever was there in her heart.

Sat like s numb, having more liquor, twisting his jaw and slamming his hands across the bar table.

He sat there alone, all dark around, just a silver light falling and he served himself.

He wasn't fully drink yet, his tolerance is high definitely

Ahaan didn't drink to forget, but he was drinking to feel the burn!

His dark eyes were randomly fixed at a point, blankly concentrating on something

Drinking all the whiskey he had in the glass, in a go

But nothing could calm the ache that she had left behind in him!

She stood there on the terrace, that was filled with chill winds blowing by.

The winds of Starting of the December!

Sending shivers down to her.

Moreover the shivers were because of the step she was going to take.

Kashish was not in her own state.

She was done with everything.

With him!

Nothing went as per her, the only thing she got was the payment of one month in return, as per the deal

But in the loss of herself.

Tightening the loose bun, she inhaled out her hesitation.

Took a step near the edge of the terrace.

As if she was trying to jump out 😭

Just then the maid hold back her forearm

" Mam are you sure you wanna do this?"

There was immense tension and care in her voice, as she knew what her Madam is trying to do is maybe wrong and risky too.

Ishq Laboo P,

Ishq Dua Me,

Kashish turned towards her, her eyes meet with the old lady

For a fraction of second her eyes become wet, she became weak

But then suppress it with a fake smile ,

nodding her head in a 'yes'

Jisme meh, Rooh me!

Ishq Rava Rava Ravaa

" This is the only way left Aunty"

Her voice was intense yet soft.

As if she was trying to fight with her own words, her own decision.

But that was the only option left for her to do

" What if sir finds out ? He will definitely kill me or harm my family"

The maid was concerned about her loved ones, and that was obvious

" No, I don't think so he will harm you all, the thing he will do is dismiss you from work, but the bangles I have given to you in return of this help, will definitely fulfill your needs till the time you get a new job "

She knows Ahaan now!

She knows what he can do.

What are the consequences of her this act

Kashish had already given a token of help in return to the old maid.

She holds the maids hand, and gave her a last assurance.

Holding the bottom of the plates of the saree she wore, she took a step to climb on the hem of the boundary of the terrace.

Ishq nazar me,

Ishq bashar Me,

Saree!?

Yes a Saree.

Kashish used all her brains

To escape.

To make it a successful escape!

Aks Me, Rakhs Me,

Ishqe Nishan

Nishan Nishan!

She asked the maid to bring an extra saree and blouse that was a dresscode for the maids and house help staff of the Mansion

So if anyone notices her from far,

It feels like she is the House help

And not the Lady of the House,

That was trying to run out

Run from everything , from the Owner

From her husband.

Ishq hai Awara,

Ishq hai Banjara!

The maid hold her hand, to stabilize her

If she misses a step, there's a support available for safety.

Kashish had a side hanging purse , in which there was few cash and her phone

She looked down, there was great height difference, her heart sank in fear.

Nervousness peak at the moment

But she had to do it!

Ishq hai Angara!

Stepping on the first step of the staircase, she gave a farewell smile to the maid, and finally the maid loosened her grip around her hand

She hold the side of the ladder, to take support while going down 👇

Rehta hai,

Behta hai!

Kashish took small steps, slow- and carefully

Looking down by each step, so she don't miss any step and be safe.

Yeh ishq zardoon Meh!

The staircase she has choosen , is the descentry stairs. This are going to take her to the backyard of the Mansion, from where the house that is made for the permanent maids is near by.

If she walks till their house, in this clothing , any guards won't indentify her.

The other gate of the maids house, has an opening to the another side of the main road

Away from the main road of the Mansion.

From there she can easily run away.

The road won't be that empty at 11 of the night 🌃

This stairs she choose were rusted and old.

It was shaking when she was descending down slowly.

It was also hidden by the brisk wall

Each step she took, her breathes hitched.

There was clear fear of being caught

From above the maid looked anxious, till the time Kashish vanished in the dark shadows

When she finally took the last steps and reached the ground, Kashish thanked to God

Rubbing her palms togather, to gather the courage she looked around.

Ishq me Mit Jaun,

Ishq me Behind Jaun!

She started walking with practiced precautions, with her head down

Her head was also covered with her Palu

That was covering part of her face

Just then a Guard appeared around with a long rifflie, that roamed around

Kashish's heart stopped beating.

But she knew if she stopped, it would look more suspicious

So she kept on walking till the house

Ishq me ho jaun!

Fana Fana Fannaaa!

The Gaurd looked twice towards her,

Then after he assumed that she was a normal maid, that was returning to her home, after finishing her work

As she finally reach out till the house

She again checked around.

When there was no one around,

She crossed the house quickly and reached near the Secondary Gate.

The Gate, was narrow, old and rarely monitored.

Everything worked as she thought till now

Taking a finally steps, she forwarded her hand ahead, her heart pounding

With the trembling hand she pushed the gate and the a little bit the rusted gate opened but enough for her to squeeze easily and move out quickly!

Yes she was successful, in coming out of the stretch of the Mansion.

She has slipped out!

Into the night- Into the unknown!

But free for now'

*******************************************

Covering her whole face, under the veil, she sat trembling in the Cab!

Yes, through app, she had taken a drive till the nearest railway station 🚉

The roads were not that empty, still s few people roaming around.

Her eyes concentrated only on the screen of her phone, looking just at the timming.

It was 11. 40 pm

The maps showed she was just five minutes away from the station, she booked online tickets of the railway

Kashish didn't knew where to go 😞!

To whom to go?

Definitely she cannot visit or hide at her parents house! When Ahaan will come to know, the first place he will go to find her, is her parents house!

And she also doesn't want t risk her parents life, if she has escaped, she wants the punishment only to be for her

Tapping her feets, her eyes were also on the driver.

She used to travel at late nights!

But with Tarun or Aastha.

This is the first time she is alone after 11 at night'

The driver also looked suspicious.

He kept the front mirror of the car focused on her.

Kashish looked up at the mirror, and noticed his eyes on her

Taken a gulp down out of fear , she fisted, and then sat very squeezed togather.

Her hold tightening around her phone

She already had a fear of being caught or traced and now plus a threat of this driver.

Sensing his more keen eyes on her, she lowered down the window of the car

Fresh late night sir hitting her face, and she got lost in this winds

Involuntarily she felt the freedom ⛓️‍💥

As if she was free from the trap.

With each second, she side eyed and checked the driver side by side.

How also has his earphones attached

As soon as the station appear, she properd her saree, and blouse and stepped down

It was almost going to be 12!

This was one of the main station of Mumbai

So there were a few people still there.

But no ladies found anywhere.

This made Kashish tensed more for a minute, but then she remembered that it was her only who ran this late.

That's why it obvious that she be the only ladies at the moment.

Her steps were fast and furious, as she took the escalator present there.

Eyes scaning every inch - hyper aware

A couple of labours were there , when she was descending down', who looked at her, but she quickly broke the eye contact.

But then she looked around, that platform was empty!

Whole silent! 😶

The sheer silence made her feel terrified

As if her own heartbeat screamed 😭

Indicator was blinking dim!

The train , was about to arrive in three minutes.

Where was she heading?

She was changing the line itself

Online she booked a hotel room, with the money she had in her own account.

The account her father made for her when she was 19

The hotel was five star ⭐

So she thought that was safe enough for her to hide.

Kashish again glanced around!

No ladies!

Only an old man sleeping on the bench

The emptiness ate her !

Was this really a safe?

As the outside world was more dangerous.

She was trapping herself - in name of escape

Your thoughts? 💭

As she looked at the train arriving in front of her, the first class ladies compartment stopped exactly in front of her foots.

Her legs worked more quickly then her mind

She stepped in!

As she sat!

It was all empty!

Just a dim yellow light lightning

She chooses a window seat, as the train leaves the platform.

Meri Manatoo Me!

Meri Janto me!

Hugging herself together

She took a breathe of relif!

Her breathes becoming stable - hollow.

Crossing her fingers, she just kept on praying to God for her safety in this alone night 🌉

Tera hii tera Shumar hai,

Clutching her bag, she just looked around.

The dark night, seemed a new light to her

Kashish Pov;

This moment feel so wanted!

So free! So mine.

I don't know why I'm not willing to stay with him anymore, or want to be bound to him under the name of this contract marriage

My limits were crossed.

I can't just push myself more for Money

I know I shouldn't be that affected by his act of spending time with any random girl or not allowing me to wear anklets

But!

This incidents that happened today

Shook me from core!

He could have beaten me, his eyes showed that rage if anger

He just wanted me to be introduced as his wife right! I'm so introduced!

After four months I'll again go to him , when he'll announce our seperation to the world

But for now,

I want to run away from him!

From his cage.

Just want to feel free, feel me! Be me!

Meri Chahto pe,

Meri Rahtoh Pe!

Why the hell is this announcement speaker making this noice!

Is this waterman planning to make a announcement for merely 10 people who are there in this whole 12 coach train !

Just one stop more!

Then my station will come

I'll book one more cab, if the driver does anything wrong, I have chilli powder with me that I took from kitchen

( The speaker made some weird voice)

" Kashish"

This voice is so similar

Wait!

Is it?

Meri rahatoo pe,

Tera hii tera Khumar Hai!

Omg how?

Oh no!

Authors Pov continues:

The moment the spekar announced her name, her body jerked

Yea fully widened

Her worst nightmare to be caught, is might be getting true

Again the word was repeated

" Kashish!"

This time it was more commanding and cold

Dangerous as well!

" Listen to me very carefully Kashish, get down at next station. Or else!

Or else I'll do anything with this Motor Man, I say again' Anything!

This innocent man will die cause of you!"

He took hault in between

Yet his sentence were clear sharp

Meri Ulfato Meh!

Meri Shiddatoh Meh!

Telling exactly what she needs to do!

This man is impossible!

Killing a innocent just to get back Kashish

Just to scare her

Just to make her climb down on next station

{Imp: This all is fictional! Nothing is related to reality!}

Hearing his words

Her last hopes died

Teri Bekhudi Meh,

Teri Dilkashi meh!

Tears gelled up in her eyes 👀

The water fall down her eyes

Her blood went cold

It was his voice

It was Ahaan !

The threat he just gave!

She needs to follow his orders

To save the Motor Man

For sure!

Her escape

Her Freedom

In Vain!

Teri Bandagi Me mera Dil Chor hai!

Her trembling body, with tears shedding involuntarily worked as per him

She gave up!

😭

Standing towards the door

As the fresh air again meet her

It felt as harsh slap

To her on her face , on her planning

The cold winds now suffocating her!

As she stepped down,

Like a lost,

Like a person who lost from her own life

She began walking towards the end of platform, when she saw

A tall figure

Standing still



In dark

But his presence adding more darkness

Meh yahan Wahan Jau,

Jahan Darbadar Badar!

He was watching

Waiting

Yet not Chasing

Because the one things predator do is,

They never chase -

They let you run first !

And when you finally run , they pull back you with a force that you can never escape.

The moment he saw her, a large smile spread across his face

Tere lia Rehti Ho Besabar!

This smile was a large taunt to her

Telling how well she loose

And ofcourse he won!

His hands were showed in his pockets, as he waited for her to walk till him'

The exactly way she tried run away from him!

Teri beqarariyo me,

Ishq hai Malang Malang Mera!

His long strides devoured the distance that was present between them

Her slow steps closing that distance - slowly

Kashish's throat got constricted, her heart was pounding very loudly

More louder than the noice that the fast running train made on the tracks.

As soon she stood in front of him ,

A faint smirk playing on his lips

That atlast he found her

And suddenly!

His hands wrapped around her waist,

While her body jolted up,

More tears running down her eyes 😭

" You thought you could easily run away?"

His voice was Deep and husky

Sending shivers of fear to her

He adjusted the shabby hair strands of her,

Plucking it behind her ears.

Testing her , teasing her

But before she could speak up, or could even breathe properly

He released his hand around her waist

Only to hold her wrist hardly

Me falak se aya tujko jo paya!

Takraya Rab se teri chaah Me!

Ahaan began marching towards the end of the station, to get out of the place

As they were already on platform 1

From where there's an exit

She tried stopping him,

Trying to stay at one place

But his Manpower was resistant!

He kept was dragging her behind him

" Please Ahaan, I'll return at the end of Four Months, but I don't want to leave there , with you! That suffocates me!"

Her voice trembling

As she literally begged him

Trying her luck hard.

Her voice getting interrupted,

As she cried continuously

Tu hii ibtida hai, tu hii inteh hai!

Jeena hai teri panah meh!

Hearing his words, he turned back , facing her

They stood in the middle of the road

Almost an empty dark road

" You cannot leave without my permission

Kashish you have to obey my orders!

On papers, for the world you are mine "

His words authoritative!

Emotions clearly displayed behind words

What he meant,

What he wants is Crystal Clear

She can't run Away Easily

Can't run away from him

She belongs to him!

" Ahaan you can't force me, even though I'm bound to !"

She stops in the middle of the road

Now not moving at all

Her eyes looked at him

The fiery eyes 👀

A fire of anger blossom in it

Na tasaliyon Meh,

Na kahaniyo Meh!

He looked at her, top to bottom over

Then suddenly left her hand from his hold

Leaving her in a shock

A smirk passed on his face,

Before opening his mouth

Milta hai sukoon tuje dekh kar?!

She took a step back,

But her steps halted when he spoke

" Your dear brother, yes the one who called you a Gold Digger is a Law student right?

Now just imagine the dearest female friend of his, the niece of the Trustee says that your brother has tried to Manpower himself on her?!

The moment she heard her brother name

Her actions stilled

Kashish herself didn't knew about her brothers growing friendship with the girl that her husband just now mentioned

And then what he told ahead.

Just stopped her steps

The only son of Mehra will be behind the bar! You know, for something that he has actually not dare to do!

But who will know the reality behind it?

He, you and me!

Hahaha! Only us!

Then the poor aspirant won't have any future left to step out in the world!

When Ahaan said those words,

Tears gathered in her eyes

The ones that had disappeared when he had left his hold from her

Yes, she isn't talking to her brother

After he insulted her

But she loves him!

She wants to see him successful

Wants to see him successful in his stream

In his profession

Never wants him behind the bar,

Because of something he has never done

The dirty power, would never clean shit her brother, she knows well!

" Auu, babes got tears just by hearing this!

Just imagine Kashish, the only person who will be responsible behind this, will be his own sister, you!

The moment he said that, she straightened her face, her red eyes met his boiling ones

Everything seemed shattered to her,

After The 'dhamki' he has given

She also very well known

That Ahaan can in reality so this

This are not just mere random words 😭

So, Kashish Ahaan Khurana, next time better use your brain to even see the dirty future' possibilities, before doing such stunts

Because for the world this is a marriage .

But in reality, you are bound to the contract, to me, in my cage!

Let me also remind you again, as per this contract we both have profits, but one wrong step of yours, it's all your loss!"

She stood there numb

Still reflecting upon his words, in her mind

Thinking more about it,

As she realised more,

More tears ran down her eyes

The tears were of being helpless

While he has started walking towards the cars, the two cars that were already present there.

Tuhi hii rehnuma hai,

Tuhi Aashna hai!

Waiting for him.

For them!

He didn't even flinch to look back,

Whether she was there following him

As he knew, what she'll do

As Kashish didn't had any option left!

Wipping her own tears,

She saw him walking ahead

Zeno - jiyap tera asar!

Very well she knew, the only option left to her, for her brothers safety was to go with him, to accompany him!

She finally ran behind him

Wanting yet unwillingly!🙂

******************************************

He sat in the front seat, driving

While she sat behind

The driver that was present in that car, Ahaan asked him to accompany the other car that had gaurds, so that only he could be there alone with Kashish .

His eyes were also fixed on the road, but mainly than the empty road, his eyes roamed again and again towards her, on her

Her body shivering, because of continuous crying, she was breathing heavily

Ab lagi lagi mujko teri lagan
