Raat ho chuki thi…
Sheher ki lights chamak rahi thi… lekin Arjun ke liye sab blur tha.
👉 Uska focus sirf ek cheez par tha — Riya.
"Sir, location mil gayi," phone par awaaz aayi.
Arjun turant alert ho gaya—
👉 "Send it."
Message aaya…
👉 Old City Area.
Arjun ne bina time waste kiye car start ki…
👉 "Riya… main aa raha hoon."
🚖 Riya's Side
Riya ek chhote se rented room me baithi thi…
Room simple tha… ek bed, ek table, aur ek choti si window.
👉 Malhotra Mansion ke luxury ka bilkul opposite.
Usne apne haath me ek photo pakdi hui thi…
👉 Wo photo… jisme wo aur Arjun party me saath khade the.
Uski aankhon me aansu aa gaye…
"Sab fake tha…" usne dheere se kaha.
💥 The Arrival
👉 Knock! Knock!
Door par achanak knock hua.
Riya freeze ho gayi.
"Kaun…?" usne halki awaaz me pucha.
Koi jawab nahi.
Phir—
👉 Knock! Knock!
Is baar zyada zor se.
Riya ka heart fast beat karne laga…
Wo dheere dheere door ki taraf badhi…
Aur handle pakda…
👉 Door khola.
❤️ Face to Face Again
Door ke saamne—
👉 Arjun khada tha.
Heavy breathing… intense eyes…
Jaise wo pura sheher cross karke yahan aaya ho.
"Tum…" Riya shock me reh gayi.
Arjun bina kuch bole andar aa gaya…
👉 Aur door band kar diya.
💢 Emotional Clash
"Tum bina bataye chali gayi?" Arjun ne gusse me pucha.
Riya ka gussa bhi ab bahar aa gaya—
👉 "Aur tumne bina bataye mujhe use kiya!"
Room me silence explode ho gaya.
💔 Truth vs Pain
"Main tumhe protect kar raha tha!" Arjun ne zor se bola.
"Pehle tumne mujhe danger me dala!" Riya ne equally strong reply diya.
👉 "Main koi shield nahi hoon!"
Arjun ruk gaya…
Uske paas jawab nahi tha.
😔 Breaking Point
Riya ki aankhon me aansu aa gaye…
👉 "Main tumse pyaar karne lagi thi…"
Room me silence chha gaya.
Arjun freeze ho gaya.
"Par tumhare liye… yeh sirf ek deal thi…" Riya ne dheere se kaha.
❤️ Arjun's Realization
Arjun dheere dheere uske paas aaya…
👉 "Ab nahi."
Riya ne confused ho kar uski taraf dekha—
👉 "Kya?"
Arjun ne seedha uski aankhon me dekha…
👉 "Ab yeh deal nahi hai."
💫 The Confession
"Main jhoot nahi bolunga…" Arjun ne deep breath li…
👉 "Haan, shuru me tum sirf ek shield thi."
Riya ka dil phir se tootne laga…
Lekin Arjun ne continue kiya—
👉 "Lekin ab… tum meri weakness ho."
Room me silence.
👉 "Aur main apni weakness ko khone nahi dunga."
Riya ki saanse ruk gayi…
❤️ Close Moment
Arjun uske bilkul paas aaya…
👉 "I love you, Riya."
Yeh words clear… slow… aur real the.
Riya ki aankhon me aansu aa gaye…
👉 "Late ho gaya…"
💔 Final Push
Riya peeche hat gayi…
👉 "Tumne mujhe trust nahi kiya…"
"Ab main tumhe kaise trust karu?"
Arjun chup ho gaya…
👉 Kyunki yeh sach tha.
😈 Danger Still Exists
Tabhi—
👉 Phone rings.
Arjun ne call uthaya…
Face instantly serious ho gaya.
👉 "What?"
Pause…
👉 "Natasha missing?"
Riya ka heart phir fast beat karne laga.
🔥 Final Scene
Arjun ne Riya ki taraf dekha—
👉 "Yeh khatam nahi hua hai…"
"Tum safe nahi ho yahan."
Riya ne dheere se kaha—
👉 "Main tumhare saath bhi safe nahi hoon…"
Silence.
🔥 Cliffhanger:
👉 Kya Riya Arjun ke paas wapas aayegi?
👉 Natasha ab kya karegi?
