Arshi SS: Kidnapped (Part 6 pg 13) - Page 5

Three days had passed with little progress in the kidnapping. Arnav had figured that two of the officers had been bribed and threatened and that's how Shyam was able to get in side. Arnav fired the two officers and hired 5 more to join the already 28 officers that surrounded the house. Arnav also called a private security company that was owned by one of his few friends from college, Maan Khurana. He had a few of his men come and install such a security system that not even the worlds 10 smartest men could crack it, not the world's best mastermind could crack it. He also had Maan send 5 of his best men to spend the next couple of days at their house while switching every night and every morning, Arnav seeing to it personally.

Khushi had improved by a little bit, but she wouldn't leave her room. Everywhere she looked at, everything she touched, reminded her of her daughter, of her Arshi. Arnav would eat breakfast with her then head out to the poolside or downstairs and work while the rest of the family would come up and eat with her. Khushi was never left alone, she always had someone there with her when Arnav had his meetings with the police inspector, the private investigator, the officers or Maan. Whenever Maan came over, he always brought his wife, Geet over with him, knowing that her presence would help Khushi since they were such great friends. Geet always spent the most time with Khushi and no one ever went in to bother them when they were together. No one knew what the two friends talked about, but whatever it was, it helped Khushi, and for that, they were forever grateful.

How can I be happy when khushi itself is sad?" Khushi heard a voice followed by a knock. A moment later, a girl of about 22 wearing a white and red sari walked in.

"Geet!"Khushi called as she ran into her friend's arms.

"How are you Khushi? Any progress? Have they found anything?" she asked.

"No. Geet, do you think she's fine? What if he hurts her, Geet? I can't bear not knowing anything. Arnav isn't telling me anything. I need to know, Geet." She said as she cried in her friend's arms.

Geet felt her heart break for her friend. She walked Khushi to the bed and had her sit down. "Khushi, stop thinking like that. She is fine. He won't dare touch her. Don't you trust Arnav? If he found something important regarding Arshi, he would certainly tell you. I'm sure what he has found, he doesn't want to tell you because you will worry. I'm not saying you shouldn't worry, but he has to focus on finding Arshi, you have to be strong for him. Ok?"

"But, Geet'"

"No buts, Khushi, ok'?" she waited and saw Khushi nod. "Now, lets talk about something else. OH MY! Khushi, do you remember when Mama bought us candy and he told us not to tell Mami. But when we were eating it, Mami saw us. Then Mama asked us why we told Mami, and you said'"

"We didn't tell her, she saw us. I can't believe I remembered that. I thought I forgot everything before Amma and Pappa's death. Geet, I miss them so much. Arshi looks so much like Amma. She looks more like Amma and Arnav than me." She smiled sadly.

"Khushi, you look like Mami too, so how is Arshi not going to look like her ma and dadi?" she said as she saw Arnav and Maan stand up with Arnav holding his hand to his ear.

Arnav and Maan were talking about new strategies and places where Shyam could have taken his daughter. They had just finished fixing the tracker on the phone so when Shyam called, they could get his location. Maan told Arnav that this was the newest there was, not even the police had it. Even if Shyam was using some kind of device to make it harder to not get his location, this tracker would get it. Just as Maan finished, Arnav's phone rang. He answered the call and hearing the voice on the other side, Arnav jumped up, followed by Maan.

"Saale Sahib, I mean Arnav Singh Raizada. We won't be family for long, so I don't have to call you Saale Sahib anymore. How are you and Khushiji doing?" he said with a laugh.

Hearing that bas***d say his wife's name made Arnav's blood boil. "YOU bas***d! How dare you say my wife's name?! Where the hell did you take my daughter?! If you touch her, I swear'" he said as pure primal instinct took over.

"You will what?" he laughed sickly. "Don't worry, Arnav. Your sweet daughter is fine. She looks just like sweet Khushiji."

"I will find you, rip you apart, piece by piece and burn you to make sure you never touch my family again." he finished and heard him laugh. Arnav looked at Maan to see if the tracking was working and Maan nodded, but to keep him on the phone for another minute or so. "What do you want?"

"Arnav, you very well know what I want. But if you want to play that game, I will play along. I want your money'your wealth'and your'wife, Khushiji." he smiled to himself. "You have until 12 o'clock tomorrow to get everything ready if you want to see your daughter alive again."

"Wait!" he yelled into the phone as he willed himself to calm down. He wasn't going to let this man show that he was angry, he wasn't going to show him that his words affected him. "How do I know she's ok? How do I know you won't go back on your word?"

'One minute. And I won't." he heard Shyam say and a second later, he heard the sweet, familiar voice of his daughter come on.

"Pappa'me want to go home. Me miss you and mamma. Pwease take me home." she said as she started crying into the phone.

"It's ok sweetheart. I'm going to come and get you. I will come and take you home. Me and mamma miss you a lot too. But you have to be a big girl now. Can you do that for your pappa? I love you sweetheart."

"I wuv you too pappa. Me big girl!" she said.

"Ok, you heard her. I will call you in the morning again to tell you where to go. Have a good day. Say hi to Khushiji for me. Oh and Arnav, the tracker the police are using, it

it won't locate me." he said and hung up.

Arnav threw the phone and said every curse he knew, in every language he knew. Once he was done, he turned to Maan. "Maan, please tell me you got that son of a b****." he said.

Maan looked at the computer screen and back at Arnav. "ASR, get your keys. We have a bas***d to find, and your daughter to get back." He smiled as both men made their way towards the room to leave when they were stopped by Khushi and Geet.

"Arnav, what happened? Where are you going? Did you find Arshi?" Khushi looked at him with tears in her eyes.
