Radha and KP got worried at the expression of Mrunalini while talking to her son. KP looked at Radha with some anguish but Radha looked so disinterested. KP was able to understand that she wants to get rid of the woman and her problems and leave from the place.
Radha did not like to stay there anymore but KP would not allow her to leave the place. Rahini told her to take care of her until she returns. What kind of a woman she is! Why is she bothering herself for some random family? Radha was so proud when Rahini earned good name for her helping nature. But now it has become a headache and torture for her family. She wished Rahini to return soon so that they can leave the place. Nowadays Rahini is busy to run behind Trisha that she forgot that she has son too. Who will take care of him if Rahini is not available and she is making her to
support Mrunalini?
Mrunalini finished her conversation and looked even more terrified.
“Mrunalini ji, is everything OK? What happened?” asked KP
“Everything has happened. They went to some place and had a heavy tussle with the goons there. Some of them were arrested.”
“That is great. Trisha is safe, is it not?” asked KP
“They did not find the child. They don’t know any clue of where the child will be. I am so scared. After the tussle, sure the goons would have got angry and they will do any harm to the child.”
“Mrunalini ji, please don’t think like that. Perhaps police can get any clue from the goons whom they have arrested. They will find the child soon.”
“I don’t know if I will be alive to see my child back.”
KP was about to say something but Radha gestured him to keep quiet. KP understood that no consolation is going to calm her. He watched helplessly. He dialed Rahini’s number but disconnected immediately
As to not to disturb her.

Rahini attended the call from the unknown number guessing it to be from the one of the gang member.
“Congratulations lady, you proved that you are more intelligent than us, is it not?” asked the goon in anger filled mocking tone “Now it is my turn to prove that you are not as intelligent as you think. Which organ can I cut-off from her body. I am leaving it to your choice.”
Rahini got bewildered.
“Please listen to me. You have two things misunderstood. One is, I am not the reason behind the tussle happened here. Another main thing is, the girl whom you have kidnapped is not my child. You have kidnapped some other child. Her family members are the ones who brought the cops. I beg you, please relive the girl. ”
“Don’t act too smart.” yelled the guy “You took advantage of our politeness and tried to trap us. You will surely pay for that.”
“Why the hell you are not understanding?” screamed Rahini “She is not my child.”
“Shut up” screamed the guy
Rahini’s face got horrific. Pratik watched her with some worry.
“Listen please. I still have the stuff you want. I will bring it to your place as soon as possible. Please give the child back.” begged Rahini
“That is not that easy. You got my men trapped to police. It is your duty to relieve them. I need both the document stuffs and our men soon to have the child back. I will call again in half-an-hour to tell you the location. Be ready by then.”
“But it is not possible. Time is too short I cannot....”
“That is not my headache. This is your last chance. If you try to outsmart us this time, I am sorry to sorry to say, be ready to see the child as meat pieces.” Said the goon in cruel tone and disconnected the call.
Rahini looked at the phone with extreme fear of her life. Pratik came to her and his face too showed the tension.

POLICE STATION
The place was unusually busy than it used to be. Press reporters from various channels and newspaper gathered outside waiting for updates which can create a sensation and increase their TRP today.Many reporters were standing in front the camera holding a mic in hands and broadcasting the latest update of the sensational story.
“Child kidnap has become one of the burning crime in the city with many innocent children vanished in recent past. Saddest part is, even the children of celebrities who are under tight security are not spared. The latest victim to join the unfortunate list is being the daughter of actor Rohit Kumar who has been kidnapped by some of the goons of child kidnapping racket few hours ago. A massive rescue operation was organized by the police force a while ago near Victoria Terminus which turned unsuccessful as the goons hid the child in some other place which it yet to be identified. However police managed to grab few of them while many escaped after a gun shots have fired at them. Investigations are going on the whereabouts of the child and who are all the anti-social elements behind.”
Another lady broadcasted,
“Police are in the process of intense investigation about the goons and who are backing them. It has been rumored that the racket is backed by many political elements in and around Mumbai and they are kidnapping children especially girl children for several gains which includes trading them to overseas, begging etc. The current investigation is expected to bring out many shocking information about many politicians and VIPs as well.”
Similar kind of noises heard here and there while security police were in process of preventing the press people entering inside the police station and struggle of press reporters to break their chain and go inside so as to get glimpse of the star and his interview. It has been half-an-hour since the thugs were brought into custody and police inspector has started enquiry in his own way.
Rohit and Arun were seated and Arun’s face turned annoyed on seeing the reporters outside.
“I don’t understand how this news got leaked to the press. Our house has totally got under siege after Ma went out of the house.” yelled Arun.
Rohit kept quiet.
“I am not sparing that woman at any cost. Where the hell she came from? All of the sudden, our life turned upside down because of one woman. I can’t just imagine what I am suppose to do now and what I am doing now. On one side, I am struggling to avoid police coming after us on the other side I am going after police to get back our child. Today we are supposed to have shooting in our studio. Bank people told that they will come to watch the shoot. Everything got cancelled. Amidst all these chaos we have to complete the balance ten days shoot to get it to editing desk. I don’t know how the hell we are going to do this. But Bhaiyya, I have to thank God for one thing sure”
Rohit looked at him like ‘What?’
“Somehow this news helped us to suppress the news of your arrest.” said Arun in as low voice as possible. “Now press reporters are more concerned about how you react on your daughter’s vanish. You have to somehow act like that you are the most concerned and caring father in the world. You have to perform so well that everyone should believe that you love your daughter like anything. If that happens, then I will show that woman who we are. Bhaiyya! Your acting should be in such a way that her own media people should turn against her and sue her for trying to sue you. I can use this opportunity to clear you out of this case completely. No need of sending any goons to threaten her.”
Rohit did not say anything. Arun’s phone rang and he frowned on seeing the caller.
He angrily pressed the answer button and said “What now?”
…….
“What!” exclaimed Arun “Do we look like mad to your eyes?”
…….
“Look, stop your non-senses. We know how to get her back. Don’t act like you are only one in this world to save her. We don’t need your help. With the same goons we will trace her and find her.”
…….
“We are neither interested to help you. We had enough of our life because of you. And I am warning you. From now on, stay away from our child as much as possible. You are the real threat to her than
my brother. Don’t call me again.”
Arun disconnected the phone angrily. Rohit looked at him and Arun said “This woman is always after us. Who is she thinking she is talking to? I have to hire some goons to get rid of her.”
Police Inspector came there after the initial enquiry. Arun and Rohit looked at him eagerly to know the whereabouts of Trisha.
“Mr.Arte, I am sorry to say but we have no luck right now.”
“What?” exclaimed Arun in shock “You are kidding, Inspector.”
“No Mr.Arte. We have tried all our means of enquiry but no luck. The people are kind of daily wages labors hired by them. They really have no direct contact with the main racket. They are assigned to complete a job. They told that they were instructed to collect some stuffs from the woman and kill her once she handed over to them. Due to our intervention, everything changed.”
Arun looked at Rohit who showed really worry and concern about the inspector’s statement.
“That woman owes a lot to us then” said Arun in irritation. “In that case, how are we suppose the trace the kid.”
“Only if we go in their path, we can get them. They are looking for some stuffs in exchange for the child. Do you have that?”
Arun and Rohit looked at each other.
“Which stuff you are talking about?” asked Arun
“The one that has. May be some kind of documents or anything. We will need that.”
Arun got stunned for a while.
“Chota! What happened? Let us get that woman and grab the stuffs. We don’t have time.” Said Rohit
Arun did not say anything.
“Chota! Why are you like this?” screamed Rohit
Arun looked at them terrified.
“Bhaiyya! It is not that easy. That woman told me another thing.”
“What?”
“Along with the stuffs, the goons need to be released from police and no FIR should be lodged against them. She told they will call again in half-an-hour which means” he looked at his watch “only 18 minutes left before we hand-over the goons and stuff. If we fail so, they will cut-off her into pieces.” Said Arun in horrific voice.
Everyone got shocked.
“What non-sense is this, Chota? That woman called you to tell this. Why you did not respond to it?” screamed Rohit.
“Bhaiyya, I was so sure that police will somehow find the whereabouts of them. I did not expect it to be this much complicated.”
Rohit held his head with his hands and sat as if he lost all his strength.
“It is ok. Still we have time left. We can try our luck this time” said inspector.
“No Sir. The guy who spoke to her was so sure that no police. Else our child will be …” Arun was not able to complete.
“I know. It is not something new to us. You please don’t worry. We will take all actions only we are sure that your child is safe in your hands. We cannot afford to lose this opportunity. Please co-operate with us.”
