CHAPTER 26
Pia's trance was broken by Ajay who said, "After that last rejection we all started to lose our Neel.๐ญ He started to drink. He became addicted to drugs. He was trying to forget you but in that process he was forgetting himself. There had been nights when my mom and Jai and I used to roam in streets to find Neel curling in some side walk and bring him home without anyone's notice.๐ญ Mom had to save our reputation so we started telling people that Neel is missing from home. But we always hoped that Neel will get over you and move on in his life. Sometimes your filthy dad would show up pretending to be sorry for Neel and we used to lock up Neel in some room afraid that seeing your dad he might become hopeless again. But one such nasty day when we locked him trying to stop him from getting drugs, he ended up cutting his throat.๐ฒ๐คข DO YOU KNOW HOW IT FELT? I FELT LIKE KILLING EVERYONE OF YOUR STINKING DOBRIYALS THEN AND THERE", ๐กhe screamed at the top of his voice clutching her throat. Pia had her eyes streaming not in pain but in remorse.๐ญ She had been the reason for someone to die so miserably and pathetically.๐ญ
He slapped her hard again, "Don't show crocodile tears to me. I am not that stupid Jai to believe you. After Neel died we didn't have the time to mourn. We buried him secretly in our garden. My mom had a stroke and died soon grieving the loss of Neel.๐คข๐ญ Jai always tried to convince me that you were not to be blamed but he was wrong. He was terribly wrong. I knew it but Jai was too stubborn to punish you. That is when I came and took matters into my control. I started cheating upon Jai. It was easy. And then one day I plotted the master plan of taking revenge. ๐กInitially I wanted to kill you all together and then changed my mind. I wanted you to dread every second of your life. I wanted you to fall on my knees and beg to give you death itself rather than the torture of awaiting it. So I killed your parents and your loving sister. You know I gave them sleeping pills so that they know what happens but remain helpless.๐ฒ๐ก I pierced your dad and mom thrice. One for giving false hope to Neel; ๐ฒanother for cheating my mom ๐ฒand the last one for not being able to convince you. ๐ฒPanchi was innocent; she neither cheated anyone nor gave false hopes to Neel but I had to kill her to save myself. She always said Abhay was suitable for you. ๐Anyways she deserved it for thinking Abhay was better than Neel.๐ก" He saw the horrified expression on Pia's tear stained face. He asked sardonically, "Abhay didn't say you about their death details. Did he? How romantic! He thought you were too delicate to live through this. And then I tried to kill you. That is when that mutt Abhay Raichand intruded in my plans protecting you each time of my ambush.๐ก" This was too much for Pia to handle. ๐ฒThe shock of Neel's death and the details of her parents' death were beyond Pia's ability to handle.๐ญ
Before 24 hours if Pia's life was in danger now it was in hell or worse purgatory. ๐ญShe was totally broken she couldn't stand it anymore. She was badly in need of a shoulder to cry. She was no more afraid of death. As Ajay said she was ready to embrace it but she wanted to see Abhay once. ๐ญAbhay had been the only truth of her existence. She wanted to make sure that Ajay will not harm Abhay after she is taken. She was too drained even to cry. So she told solemnly, "Do whatever you want to me. But you will stop with me. I will pay for whatever my papa did to you and your family but leave Abhay and Jai out of this. Let them free. They will not pay for my sins. Deal?" Ajay guffawed, ๐ก"You are in no state to propose a deal to me Dobriyal. Well I cannot harm Jai. I fervently wish to, trust me, but that will be my end too so I will generously grant you that wish. But Abhay no. He will die as he took away what should have been my brother's.๐ก So his death will be the penalty." He ignored Pia's continuous pleadings to leave Abhay out of this. He went to another room and took out his pistol.๐ฒ He came back to Pia's room who was crying at him pathetically.๐ญ She was calm when she got ready to get killed, but now she was crying to save Abhay he thought with anger. This love should have been towards his brother but as it was not, it meant the death of Abhay and Pia he thought furiously.๐ก He came to her with his guns raised. "Do you know how I am going to kill? I am going to shoot you anywhere but at your heart. I want you to scream. I will record your agony and send it to Abhay and then at last I will immolate you,"๐ฒ he laughed maniacally.๐ก Pia was terrorised but kept silent. She would not scream if that would reduce any amount of Abhay's agony. ๐ญShe prayed for Abhay's safety and kept her eyes open so as not to show her terror. But at the gunshot her eyes closed automatically as a reflex.
Abhay and Sid reached the address of the guest house. It was totally seclude from the city. So this had to be the place. They both went to the door which was locked. Not a big deal, Abhay opened it with his pin. ๐They tiptoed silently with their pistols ready at hand. They searched every room but no one was there they started to fear if this was not the hideout when they heard a gunshot bellow their feet. ๐ฒThey searched for trap doors removing the carpets and found one with a ladder leading to the basement. They scurried down to find 2 rooms. They peeped in to find Jai standing there showing his back to them. Pia sat there tied up to a chair with her eyes closed. Abhay's heart skipped a beat in fear, 'Had that gunshot taken her life?' ๐ฒBut Sid went in swiftly.
Pia opened her eyes to see Ajay falling on the wall for support as Sid pinned him to the wall. ๐Only then she noticed Abhay at the door. ๐Ajay had shot on the floor near her feet to threaten her. Joy fled through her like elixir, "Abhay",โญ๏ธ she called put sounding relieved. Abhay came to her at once and kissed her passionately.๐๐ He removed the ropes and freed her. She hugged him with the little life left in her. Sid then said, "Abhay take her from here. The more you both stay here the more dangerous Jai will be." Pia said to them in a confused voice, "He is not Jai but Ajay". Abhay explained to her quickly, "Ajay is the name of Jai's split personality.๐ฒ Jai has been suffering from split personality ever since Neel started to live in seclusion. Jai found this out and went to the doctor to fight his problem. But still when he loses his temper his hidden personality rises.๐ฒ I just got all these info from his doctor." Pia looked dumbstruck while Sid warned them again, "Abhay take her out now." But Sid had momentarily shifted his attention to them while Jai/Ajay grabbed this opportunity.๐ฒ He jumped on Pia pulling her to the wall along with him with his gum pointing to her temple. Jai/Ajay laughed hysterically, "If I can't torture her then at least I will kill her in front of you.๐ก That will torment you both as either of you know that neither of you will survive the other ones loss."๐ก Abhay tried to step forward while both Sid and Pia warned him with looks. Sid didn't know what to do.๐
