Heyy guys. Finally updated. I want to establish before posting this part that the Sakshi that I am portraying is of almost equal caliber to Arjun. So if she gives it right back don't find it too unbelievable. Im all for women power in any case ;) Thanks for all your comments and love. Its really overwhelming and please continue this love. As always, like, comment, and add me as a buddy for PMs.
PS: Its currently 2:30am here in America so PMs for this part will be sent tomorrow. Sorry for an inconvenience.
Part 4
Sakshi was shocked seeing Arjun's photo on the table in front of her. She wondered if Arjun had kidnapped her and if he did, why. "Shut up Sakshi. Arjun would never do that," thought Sakshi. She just assumed that it was some gang who was also after Arjun. She sat down on the couch to massage her throbbing temples.
---------------------------------------------------------
"Sir! Sakshi's phone is still coming unreachable!" cried Shree as he tried to track her down. Rathod and the team hadn't heard from Sakshi since the day before and to put it lightly, they were worried out of their wits. Aisha was sitting in the praying for the one person she currently considered a sister. Chotu kept eating food non-stop in his nervousness and Shree was so busy trying to locate Sakshi's location every five minutes that he didn't even notice that Chotu was taking the food from his tiffin.
"Arjun Sir ko bhi aaj hi nahin aana tha," sighed Aisha who felt only Arjun could figure out where Sakshi is. "I am not worried about him right now dammit," said Rathod who, surprisingly, seemed the most worried out of everyone. Aisha felt a small pang of jealousy seeing Rathod's worry for Sakshi and she wondered why. She pushed that aside and walked up to him. She squeezed his shoulder and when his eyes met hers, they both smiled smally at each other.
---------------------------------------------------------
"Are you awake Miss Princess Sharma?" said the voice, bringing Sakshi out of her thoughts. Rolling her eyes, she just ignored him. "Ready to answer my questions?" continued the voice. Sakshi thought of something and replied, "Only if you feed me first. I can't talk on an empty stomach." "Fine," said the voice, irritated by Sakshi's antics.
Sakshi stood by the door, waiting. The door opened slightly and a hand holding a plate was put through. Sakshi quickly pulled the arm and the man in and hurried to aim a punch at the kidnapper's face. It made contact and soon Sakshi watched a bleeding Arjun falling to the floor.
Sakshi looked him, wide-eyed and baffled. "Arjun you actually kidnapped me? Why?!" she asked him. Arjun stood up angrily, grabbed her by her shoulders and screamed, "Because I overheard you saying that you worked for Sikander! How dare you manipulate the ETF team and ME, Miss Sakshi Anand Sharma?1" Sakshi's expressions turned from in pain to shocked. She stopped struggling against Arjun's hold and looked at him with slight guilt.
She snapped out of it and pushed his hands off her. Arjun got angrier and tried to grab her arm again. She moved her arm in a circle to twist his hand off and then shoved him away. She knew she wasn't stronger than him so she ran towards the door. Arjun caught her by the doorway and grabbed her waist. He threw her against the wall and inched closer to her. She closed her eyes at the proximity. As she waited for Arjun's attack, she realized nothing was happening and opened her eyes.
Rathod stood there holding Arjun back and he finally pushed Arjun to the side. Sakshi ran and hugged Rathod who stroked her hair and consoled her. Aisha seemed slightly miffed but she went unto Sakshi and hugged her too.
Arjun looked like he was going to run towards Sakshi again when Rathod held up his hand and said, "Don't even think about it Raute! Don't you dare to come near her again." "She's betraying us Rathod! Don't comfort her! She's working for Sikander!" screamed Arjun who lunged forward only to be pulled back by Chotu.
"Please Raute. Let Sikander be for right now and let's leave," said Rathod in a last attempt to stay calm-headed. Arjun just struggled against Chotu and finally broke away. As he got closer to Sakshi, Rathod stepped in front of her, anger evident on his face now.
"How can you still support her Rathod?! She's helping the one who killed our Roshni!" yelled Arjun as he grabbed Rathod's collar. "That's enough! You have no right to question me or Sakshi! As far as anyone in this room can see, Sakshi has been the victim of a kidnapping. I might have to arrest you Raute," said Rathod in his rage. The two men stared at each other with hatred pulsing in each's eyes.
"No," said Sakshi quietly from behind Rathod.
