Death : Mystery Unsolved - Chapter 92
Even Shiva, who just finished his training and was coming back inside, couldn’t help but stare at this duo and laughed heartedly.
‘She definitely isn’t the early riser type.’ Shiva muttered under his breath, earning a sharp and death glare from Nazma, who ought to have heard him.
But, he just bowed his head a little, as the form of greeting. And left this duo, on their own.
Zunaid, who still was sleeping in his own bed, couldn’t help but jolted awake in his sleep, after hearing Saheeda’s cries for help.
But, after hearing the name of Nazma, he halted a little in his steps while contemplating whether to go and die or not, but still decided to help his fellow member. He was about to leave,
but only then his line of sight fell at a certain sleeping figure, who seriously was sleeping without any concern about the world.
And, he couldn’t help but sigh. He heard the two people’s discussion, which disturbed his sleep. So, he carried her to his room, placed her on one side of bed, covered her properly with a quilt,
then fell asleep on the other side, just like a gentleman, while placing a pillow in the middle as if declaring it the boundary between them.And drifted back to dreamland.
Back to present ****
He opened the drawer, brought the headphone, and placed it on her ears; which act as a soundproofing from the cries of certain child outside.
Then he covered her quilt properly and left to help his fellow soldier in war.
He so desperately wanted to kiss her, either in her forehead or her lips. But,he decided to better act like a gentleman. After all, she is an enemy at the end of the day.
And they could be friends, at the most but nothing else.So, why dream about something, that’s impossible to achieve?
Right now, they can work together, on their targets, this already is the best outcome for him.
So, why mess it up, right!!! And after thinking for a minute or longer, he finally put all those irrelevant thoughts at the back of his head.

Riya , who was left alone in the room, opened her eyes.She had already woken up, the moment he carried her in his arms and then brought her to his room.
But, she just wanted to know. To know him, to know his intention. And to find anything useful in his room.She expected many things, from bad to worst. But, the thing that she didn’t expect was this gentlemanly side of his.
This fellow might not be decent, or act like one. But he definitely was a true gentleman. He neither touched her pervertedly , nor gave her the perverted gaze. All that he did was place her on the bed, cover her up and draw a boundary between them.
Giving her a safe,secured and protected place on the earth. Even when he woke up, he firstly made sure that she would fulfill her part of sleep, by placing those headphones on her ears.
Then, he might have stared at her face for a moment; about which she wasn’t sure of. But then, he didn’t even cross his line and left.
She ,for the first time, realised that this barbarian actually has the descent, gentleman side. And she couldn’t help but feel a little warm from the inside out. Only if they weren’t enemies, a sworn one on top of that. Sigh!!!

Saheeda was wailing as loud as she could, as if asking for help. But all the people in the house were her enemies to begin with except for Zunaid, who definitely is as useless as her.
The agents from other country, will definitely not interfere with them or their practice. Zunaid can’t talk to Nazma, all thanks to his position,too.
So, there really was no one who could help her. But still, she was wailing on the top of her lungs. As if wanting to deaf Nazma by her wailing.
“ You know, I am wearing cotton buds on my ears, right!!!” Nazma ended up saying it as the way of asking. And as expected the certain cry baby stopped her rambling for a minute, as if to check it for herself.
And there they were, two cotton buds covering Nazma’s ears completely. Saheeda felt like she had been cheated on by Nazma.
She gave a death glare to her, then she blew her side bangs, as if trying to remove her anger by blowing it on her hairs and sky. All thanks to which, even Nazma ended up smiling. And that was when Mr. Zunaid Rashid Khan entered the ground.
“Good morning, ladies.”He said with a smile, which earned a sweet smile from Saheeda, while a death glare from Nazma in return.
“I- I mean, good morning ,Senior. Good morning,Leadernim.”He joined his both palms in the formal namaste , while bowing his head a little.
Now, things are getting intense. Even the so-called ,Good morning greeting is getting complicated, and hard to handle in the presence of Nazma. God knows what else will happen next.
“It’s already 6:30 AM. Why are you so late? Don’t you know, the practise time starts from 4am. 100 laps of the ground.” Nazma said as a way of greeting.
And both Saheeda and Zunaid stare at each other; hun-hundred rounds.
Won’t he die, just by running then , like that!!!
“What are you staring at?50 rounds for you. Happy!!!” Nazma said to Saheeda.
And Saheeda felt like today her soul will definitely leave her body while completing those fif-ty laps. For god sake, a person, who can’t even complete a single lap of this ground; which is no less than 1km.
50 or 100 are just like seeking death. And both the fellows, gulp their saliva. Zunaid didn’t even get time to demand justice,
when Nazma’s stare landed on him;as if asking, ‘You’re still here!!!’ and he ended up scraming out of her line of sight.Saheeda gulped her saliva, and for the first time in the entire week,
she started muttering all the prayers or shalokas or mantras or chalisas or anything that could connect her with The Supreme Lord .
Once she was done, she too started running , very very very slowly, while her enchantment of holy scriptures didn’t stop.
~~
3 and half hours later;
At the end of the practise session; Zunaid completed 3 rounds, while Saheeda completed 1 and half rounds, after running for almost 3 hours..In the end, Zunaid had to carry back Saheeda, on his back in a piggyback style.
