Narendra was shouting on warden, not founding Geet in room. Warden panicked. She went to all rooms to ask others but all were already sleeping. No one knew where Geet gone. Narendra left threatening warden and warden was furious. She wanted to beat hard to all girls but controlled. Geet was not in building means she was out somewhere. And what if she brings police. So she controlled her anger and called her friend who was in police..

Maan opened car door when he got call from office. He attended. Then he saw Narendra was going toward his car. He waved Maan and left. Maan too ended his call and started engine. He drove toward his house Khurana Mansion as meeting was cancelled. He called Narendra and informed. Maan was driving fast as soon as he wanted to reach km and crash his bed. He was hell tired. In few hours he reached and went out. He reached to km door when found his phone was not with him. He came back. Opened car door and bend inside to pick when his eyes caught a strange thing on back seat .
He went to back seat and found a sack type thing. He could not see in dark so switched on light. He saw a figure, cuddled badly in a cloth with was dirty and torn. Its head was under cloth and leg was pushing to stomach. Maan could not figure out was it boy or girl.
“Listen he called.. ” listen!! Hello! ” he called again. But figure did not move. ” Damn !! ” he got irritated. He called out loud again. The figure moved with sound and sat up, quivering. Maan saw , this was a girl.. a young girl… He could not see her face clearly due to dim light.. Geet feared.. his eyes remembered her that man eyes. She started sweating, shaking again, crying. She moved back to far corner of seat.. clutching her Dupatta (Scarf). Crossing both arms around her, wanted to hide herself from his eyes.. her whole body was shaking in terror.
“who are you ??” he asked. She moved back more hearing his cold voice. Her cry was not silent now.. it was making sound, with hiccups. ” come out !! ” he ordered. Looking no move from her he raised his hand to bring her out. She startled back, glued her body to car window. She held her cloth more, to hide herself, like she would be invisible from all ills ..
” No don’t!! Don’t come near me ” she begged. Her voice was meek. Maan could not understand what she saying but guessed she was highly terrified. He pulled his hand back.
Maan was very tired and all these were going on his nerves now. He wanted to get rid of all and this girl , making everything more difficult. Damn !! he shouted irritated. She started crying loud. He could not understand what to do. He calmed thinking he would have to handle her with patience. ” Okay..don’t cry girl!! listen me!! I will not do anything. You don’t need to scare of me. Now come out ” he said tolerantly. She looked him with her big brown eyes, which had oceans.. she stopped crying hearing his calm voice but was not fully convinced. Maan tried again to win her little trust that he would not do her anything.. she can come out.
“But, You won’t touch me na!! Please don’t come near ” she asked scared. Maan felt like some thorn , hearing her plead . He shook his head assuring , she will be safe. She came out slowly. Hesitatingly she stood in her torn dress . Her suit was so tight as barely she could breath inside. it was so dirty and old, like she had wore any 12 year child’s suit.. Maan looked her. She was naturally beautiful . Even in those torn dress she was looking like heavenly fairy. Her marble skin was visible from torn holes. Her head was down. Her arms were crossing her chest. Her legs were touching each other, shaking little like it had no strength to stand. Her hair was mess. Her face was red and muggy. In one word, she was completely worn out.
“who are you..” Maan asked. She dint speak.
” How did you came in my car?’’ he again asked. She again dint speak
“what’s your name? ” he asked she dint speak. Now its gone worst for Maan. ” Are you mute .. Can’t speak!! ” he shout in frustration..
Geet dint look him. She again started cry loud. She was not understanding what was happening all these.. why everyone shouts her.. why she was not in good state.. why all these happening to her n her only..
looking her cry Maan melt a little. “Hay, now be quite, don’t cry okay! ” he said. She looked him shocked.. ” Come inside ” word echoed in her mind.. .. she saw him leaving toward his big mansion. She dint move. He looked back and found her still stood at same place
“Didn’t you hear what I said? ” he said
” W-Where are you taking me, inside? ” she asked gathering her last bit of strength..
” I said come inside! I am not supposed to stand here whole night for you. Now come!!” he answered ..
looking on way she followed him and went inside Mansion. Maan closed door. She scared remembering warden also had closed door.. ” why did you locked door? What will you do with me?” her fear spoke with lots of tears..
Maan looked her. He guessed something bad had happened with her, but he was not in condition to think more. He called his servant without answering her back.
“Sit ” he pointed sofa to sit but she dint. she was looking whole house with wide eyes. It was big like some palace. Though she dint know how palace looks like but she had seen many pictures of palaces. She was looking and scaring more to think if something happen to her here, who would come for her rescue. She was busy in her thought when some sound caught her attention. She looked back to Maan and found a other man there. He was Nakul , Maan head servant. He was mid age man with short height.
Geet faltered looking Nakul. She hides behind Maan. Though she dint knew Maan , yet he did not try to touch her so she felt little secure near him. Maan said Nakul a little about her and ordered him to took care her as he was hell tired and wanted to rest. Maan left from there to his room leaving Nakul and Geet in hall. Geet was again alone .. she was shivering under gaze of Nakul . Nakul understood her state. He was good hearted man . He assured Geet somehow talking her politely. Geet calmed. Nakul said her to sit and he left to bring some food. Geet sat there looking unknowingly. After 15 minutes Nakul came back and found Geet laying on sofa. lost in deep sleep.
