Death : Mystery Unsolved - Chapter 115

So, saving him is in her priority list too. That’s the first time he is knowing that. That, he is her priority too. So, what if it’s the third one. Hell, he was all happy after finding out that he is her responsibility, her priority.

“ Then what about others?” He couldn’t help but ask back. Although, he definitely didn’t want to discuss upon death. But, he knows he isn’t the talkative type. So, whatever.

“ Riya is Zunaid’s priority. Shiva is Nazma’s . But as a team, we are no less than a family. So, it’s better to bid a proper farewell, when I have time. Rather than regretting later.” Saheeda explained.

“ Then what about your agents ?” Kai asked.

“ Either they will live and contribute to this mission or they will die. Simple. Just like me. Our target is to save people, catch the leader.

So, if practically speaking then, R,M and me will be running a marathon, in which one side it will be us and the other side will be death, whoever will reach the finish line first, will win.

As both death and our target is the same; which is TTO and millions of innocent lives. If death wins this race; then thousands of people will lose their lives, but if we win, then the Leader of TTO will lose his life.

And if things got complicated, then both death and us will start fighting with each other. And then, it will be either death defeating us , while taking our lives .Or us defeating it, while sneaking away from it’s grasp.” Saheeda explained in detail, with that non-serious face of hers.

And Kai couldn’t help but stare at Saheeda, a little longer than usual. So, saving his agents and his life, is her and her agent’s priority. But in return, neither she nor her agents expect anything . Not even their own protection.

Isn’t she just great, yet stupid at the same time!!!! But, he knows that her mind works completely against the normal expectation of the people.

~~

No doubt ,she had become Country I’s top agent while being just 18 herself. And now very soon , if there is any future, then she will be joining The UN, too.

He felt like saluting her, for her stupidity, for her bravery, for her stubbornness, for her naiveness, for her childishness, for being her, completely extraordinary of her.

“ Not bad.” Kai just replied, after gaining back his control over his senses again.

“ We are getting late.” And Saheeda complains just like a spoiled wife, while pouting as sweetly and cutely as possible.

As for Kai, he just felt like taking each and every word back, all the feelings which he felt toward her or her attitude, just vanished away completely, the moment she opened her mouth.

“Let’s go.” Kai said finally after holding back his laughter. In utmost seriousness. And thus they left.

~~

While two people were busy reaching their destination. The other 4 people were busy with their own work. Since, Zunaid was busy fixing the newly made gadgets on Shiva , while Riya was staring at both of them without even blinking.

It was just like someone was showing her a magic show, she didn’t want to skip even a single glance. Nazma just stared at this overly excited child and just sighed in return. Then she started her job of preparing food and juice for each and every person.

After all, she was supposed to give food to each and every fellow at the right time. Since, this process drains a great amount of energy from them.

So, it’s better be prepared then be sorry. It’s not like Nazma wasn’t nervous or something like that. But ,she was an experienced fellow in masking her emotions.

~~

Finally after 20 minutes of drop dead silence, Zunaid gave a green signal to Shiva, who then opened his eyes. And he ,too, felt like he might faint away at any possible moment.

But luckily Nazma brought the food in time. And then, they just stare at each other. Their gazes interlocked. But then Nazma averted her gaze away from Shiva. After all, her mind was still coiling around in a turmoil.

From what happened yesternight. So, she decided to maintain her distance, until and unless there’s no option left. And she really wanted to curse, Saheeda for apointing her as Shiva’s partner.

Once, Shiva’s process was done, then Zunaid instructed Nazma to sit, to which she complied. Then Zunaid followed the whole process. And once again, the silence enveloped completely in this haunted house.

~~

Very soon , Nazma was done too. And since Riya was completely fixated on the show. Zunaid couldn’t help but sigh and then , he had to walk in the kitchen himself. Then he himself fed Nazma and didn’t leave her until and unless, she was fully revitalized to the very extent.

Only then Riya realised that she was the next in line. And she couldn’t help but smile, sheepishly.

~~

She smiled sheepishly, only to hide her nervousness. After all, Riya was nervous. It was just like watching a live Jeanie who can create miracles.

Zunaid saw her hesitation. Then in order to remove her nervousness and hesitation, he said : “ My lady, Shall we?”

And the cute yet naive Riya just struck completely at ‘ My Lady’. Zunaid being Zunaid, he took the advantage of her dazed state, and as gentlemanly and as descently as possible, he brought her to the sofa area.

He placed her on the sofa , then before she could understand anything. He simply asked: “May I ?”

She just nodded, without even processing his words. He ended up helping her by fixing her gadgets, on her eyes, ears and mouth.

She was about to open her eyes, but then Zunaid stopped her, by placing his palms. “ Don’t . Not yet.” he replied.

To which she complied and nodded her head, as if showing him that she understood and that he could remove his hand from her eyes.

But, he just stayed like that, while counting the minutes passing by, and taking each and every single detail, from minute to extent, in great concern.

As for Riya, she felt like she has been standing in the universe somewhere. As if there were stars below her, while many lightning ,beautiful, colourful dots were surrounding her.

But the chaos just started, as when Riya was busy in appreciating the mesmerized ,enticing scene , soon the flood of tones of sounds came from nowhere and surrounded her…
