Part 50
Sameera screamed loudly...for a moment she closed her eyes...
It was silence for few seconds...Sameera gathered up and walked towards Nandini who was shocked and scared...
Nandini looked at Sameera "i shot him...he's dead"
Sameera looked at Deepak's body in blood...then looked at Nandini "you haven't killed him...you were trying to stop him from killing me..."
Nandini threw the gun away... she started sweating...she was scared...everything around her looked blurred...she started breathing slowly...her body was getting cold, hands were trembling...for some reason she only thought that her life will become hell when everyone gets to know...
Sameera "Nandini don't think that much...i won't let you in trouble...only we two know about Deepak coming here and he was shot...let me think something..."
she made Nandini sit in the lounge and asked her to wait for her until she gets back...
Nandini's ears were still hearing the fire shots...
After some time...
Sameera "come Nandini get up fast...we don't have much time..."
Nandini saw a big coffin next to Sameera "what is that??"
Sameera "we will put his body into this coffin...and throw in the lake nearby"
Nandini was trembling with fear... "what if someone catches us??"
Sameera "if you make that face then anybody in the world would guess...now stop wasting time, come lets do it fast before anyone comes"
Nandini "i think I should tell Prithvi..." she took out her phone...when Sameera pulled it...
Sameera "are you out of your mind Nandini...you don't know Prithvi...he will never like you for this...you have committed a murder...and now you are calling Prithvi to tell this...do you think he will support you..no way he will call his commissioner friend and tell everything...it will create distance between you two... now listen to me just do what I say and believe me nothing will happen to you...no one will get to know about this..."
Nandini listened to Sameera and put her phone back...she thought Sameera was right, she can never let Prithvi know about this incident...she cannot go away from him...she can't even think of that...
two of them with all their force lifted the body and put him in the coffin... Sameera closed the coffin and dragged it...Nandini helped to carry it in the car... .
Both of them reached the lake...there was silence all around...Nandini was still sweating because of the crime she committed and on top of that she was hiding it badly... Sameera asked Nandini to get off the car to help her pull the coffin out...both of them pulled the coffin out so forcefully that the lock opened and Nandini saw Deepak's face with his eyes wide open... she screamed ' Sameera asked her to be silent and closed the lock again and quickly throw the coffin in the lake... Nandini was still scared... she tried to come back to her senses...
Sameera asked Nandini to sit in the car while she glanced around to check and then quickly sat in the car... she drove up a little distance then the car stopped...
Sameera "wait I will check" she got off the car and saw the leak in the cooling system... "we need water..." Nandini was lost...she was still thinking about what all happened...
Sameera "i will get some water from that lake..."
Nandini "no Sameera don't go...please I am scared..."
Sameera "i will just be back..." Nandini was desperately waiting for her...
After some time they reached home...
Sameera asked Nandini to help her clean the blood on the floor... both of them got hot water and brush to clean the entire floor...
Sameera "look Nandini you don't have to look nervous now...nobody has seen you...we have not left a single proof now...so just relax"
Nandini "Relax!!!!...what are you saying...i am still not getting out from the entire incident..." she started sobbing...
Sameera "you won't get anything by crying...Nandini go and change your clothes and just put these clothes to wash..."
Nandini looked at her clothes that had some blood on them...she immediately got up and went to change...deep in her mind she thought she would never have peace now...what had she done and now she's hiding such a big crime...what if everyone gets to know...she was almost frozen with fear...she sat under the shower collapsing herself...regretting of what she had done...she was horrified at the incident...

After some time...
the door bell rang... Sameera opened the door...it was the gateman... "sorry mam I had to go for a little while...is everything alright?"
Sameera "yes don't worry..."
Sameera thought its been long time since Nandini went to change...she climbed upstairs to check '..she was startled to see Nandini sitting under the shower with her door open...
Sameera "Nandini !!!! what are you doing..." she got a towel and turned off the shower...Sameera wrapped the towel around her while Nandini was shivering with cold...
Sameera "Nandini sit on the bed..." she wrapped the blanket around her... "what the hell were you doing?...you could have fallen sick..."
Nandini seemed paralyzed with fear...she didn't speak anything... she seemed fearful about the whole incident...
Sameera "you have to forget about what all happened Nandini...just come back to your normal life...please for God sake you have not done it deliberately...now please put on your clothes otherwise you will fall sick...i will get something to eat"
Sameera left the room...Nandini was loath to forget anything...she could not forget the dead man's face, his eyes looking at her...
Nandini felt as if she has jumped into the pool of blood...she could see herself as a murderer...but then she thought about Prithvi "no" she said... "i can't loose him at any cost" she wiped the sweat on her face "i have to look normal" she brushed her hair with her hand... "no Prithvi shouldn't come to know about this incident..." she walked up towards her wardrobe and changed her clothes...she got ready and looked herself in the mirror... she tried to look normal... she had never applied make up to cover her emotions but this time she had to look good and act nicely so that he shouldn't doubt her...she knew Prithvi would guess in a minute from her face that something is wrong... she applied little make up and wore nice dress...she heard Sameera calling for dinner...
"i am coming Sameera..." she said...
