Rudra looked at his phone and smiled. Maya is typing. Love does crazy things to you. Here he was sitting in his business meeting and stealing glances at his phone and waiting for his wife's reply. What was she typing for this long? The typing had stopped, there was no message, but there was a GPS notification from her phone. Wait, was she coming to meet him? Here? Sanki girl!
The perks of being the boss, Rudra gave everyone a 10 minute break and rushed to call Maya. "The number you have dialed cannot receive your call at this moment. Please try again after some time." This happened five times in a row and Rudra was worried. He decided to call Rajeev, because he might be with her for work.

The dot on the map had left Roy House and rapidly moved northwards. Did Maya have some new plan for their mission? She didn't share anything. Rajeev should probably call and check. Right then, Rajiv's phone buzzed with Wow ki Dukaan calling.
"Hello Rajeev."
"Hello Rudra, good that you called. Can I speak to Maya?"
"Maya? No, I mean I am in Pune for a meeting. I thought she might be with you, she isn't taking her calls."
Oh f**k!
"Rudra, by any chance, did you get her GPS notification?"
"Yes.. You got them too?" Rudra's breath became shallow.
"Yeah. Okay see do not panic, but we have to follow her to her location immediately. She might be in danger."
"But she was at home, how can she fall in danger?"
"I can't explain all that now, but we have go immediately."

When the hunter is out for hunting, pretend dead. That's the golden advice used for centuries in the forest. With a 'jackal' on prowl, Maya was following the same advice for the last one and a half hours. Wrong, for the last ten years. Okay technically she wasn't dead, she was acting to be unconscious in the backseat of the car, and in the past she acted to be gone from this world.
MJ was too smart to fall for Maya's pretending this time. He had tied her hands and feet, and he was himself driving the car. This time he couldn't afford to make any mistakes. Amir had arranged everything at the venue, they would reach there as soon as the highway ends.
Maya kabhi kisi ke haath nahi aati, kyunki Maya ko pakadne se pehle sacchai se ulajhna padta hai, aur sacchai kabhi kabhi jaan le leti hai. Maya was a trained escape artist. To prepare for her revenge, to prepare to face MJ, to prepare to execute her reality, she had trained herself as an escape artist, fencing, martial arts and shooting for the last ten years. Now that the real fight had started, she had to use her skills. With her pretending intact, she slowly slipped out of her captivity and noted the car very well for ways to escape. MJ's gun was kept on dashboard of the car.

Rajeev was waiting for Rudra to arrive at a turn to the highway from Pune. When Rudra finally did, he was boiling with anger, actually anger, anxiety, restlessness everything.
"Get inside the my car, I'm going to drive." Rudra said.
Wooh! he looked hot in anger. No wonder Maya has fallen for real.
Rajeev got inside the passenger seat of the car without any word. Rudra drove the car near at the speed of light. He looked very pissed.
"Are you going to give me any explanation for this? Does Maya have any enemies I don't know of? Is that why she never came in front of the media? I am her husband, she should have confided in me. How did her danger walk into my house?"
"Rudra, actually her danger lives in your house. It's not my place to tell what happened in her life. And before you jump into conclusions, let's find Maya first. Or her phone might go out of coverage area."
Rudra gave a side glance to Rajeev before turning his eyes to the road. He would break all the bones of that someone who had tried to harm his Maya, in past, present or future. She had taken away his pain, he would wash away her injuries. She was his home.
