Everything happened for a reason. You face worst , so that you could cherish the best. In which moment life would take which turn ; you never aware about it. Sometimes some turn gave you immense pain while some gave you immense pleasure. All you have to do ,accept what you face. Sometimes even Moon had its dark side which nobody ever got to see. But after overcoming that dark phase it scattered more cool brighten light.

' Look carefully, the sign that a crescent moon ,colored black enclosed within a star , looking like a cage forcefully captured moon was not sign from any fictional movies. It's a sign used by old mafia gang who involved many illegal activities, more specifically women-trafficking in past era. People thought they were broken after the huge encounter led by government; but some of them still left to continue it as some vengeance.

But fortunately the gang had been caught by a bold girl for her quick wit and importantly for strong heart. Hence saved life of many girls. So Here we are presenting the brave citizen award to Mrs Brinda Sharma. It was not any big award at any government function, it was just community people arranged small function in between them.

Brinda moved toward the dais with her slow steps , looking here and there. She didn't know, from the moment she came someone staring her constantly without blinking even. At the end of dais steps she looked back; only to get shock seeing the person staring her constantly with mischievous expression. Her mouth automatically parted open to whisper ' Sameer' ; but the next moment her nose went up as some unknown emotions rushed inside her. She turned back and went away denying looking at him even. Sameer was out of town for work, so he told he could not attain the small function presented in honor of his wife. But seeing her irritated now, he tried to relax her mood. He went to mic and started his speech.

Brinda was a sweet, polite navie girl who was more like a butterfly. She loved to spread happiness and help other. Her lovely nature drawn many attraction toward her ; but she simply refused all those.

One fine day she was returning from her college while she saw a guy was lying in pool of blood. Her heart pained seeing such cruelty and she took the man to hospital. After talking to his family member; she left the place. After few days she forgot the incident.

It was her last day at post graduation. Whole batch was enjoying the farewell party given by junior. Brinda was discussing with her friends when one of their professors approached, " Brinda, someone wants to meet you, come soon."

" What? Who?" She only uttered as it was highly astonishing for her that how a professor particularly know her as she was neither topper nor highlighted. Second nobody till date want to meet her.

" stop dreaming. You will know once you will see him." Professor walked followed by Brinda.

" Him?" well that's more shocking for Brinda as she never had any friendship with guys other than her brother and father.

" Here, Mr. Varma, She is Brinda Sharma whom you wanted." Professor walked away leaving her more confused and a bit fear too arise in her.

" Sorry! I don't know you. You may be mistaken me as someone else." She said immediately and excused to exit.

" Don't be afraid miss Sharma. I am here to convey my regards directly. Thank you for saving my life that day." Mr. Varma told heartily. Brinda still stood rooted thinking of his words deeply. She couldn't remember where exactly she saw him. Seeing her confusion Mr. Varma told her everything, which she remembered.

"Oh! That's nothing. It's just humanity." Brinda exclaimed with pleasant smile. " but how do you know it was me; you are unconscious then?"

"That is not impossible for a cop like me." Mr. Varma replied while Brinda again choked as her eyes widen at the thought who could beat cop like this. After few formal talks they left.

Sameer Varma was a cop in profession and had a good reputation in his department for his work. His only weakness was he could never deny his family, especially his father whom he considered as god and sister for whom he could do anything. He knew he was being adopted but never felt like that. Apart from those two Brinda was third person who caught his attention.

After that encounter both become good friends. Sameer tried to find ways to meet Brinda and talk with her. He loved spending time with her. Realizing his heart he decided to propose Brinda as he knew if he would like to settle with any girl in future that would be her. Brinda was definitely surprised but agreed after getting consent from her family. Though Sameer's Dad was little hesitant at first but their marriage happened.

Initial days of new life were blissful in each other's embrace. Whenever Sameer got time , took Brinda out. They had fun and lovely time together. Brinda felt apart from Sameer no one was happy with her and felt some creepiness in air as she heard faint noises in silenceif you careful to listen them in night. But she ignored as Sameer was with her and she was happy. In all those happiness they didn't noticed the jealousy in others eyes. Sameer's dad felt as if Sameer was becoming a normal human and didn't respect him like before. More over Brinda doubted about his illegal works as she asked about the noises. Sameer and his profession was a great help to them to cover up on their illegal deeds as nobody ever think to suspect him. On top the situation got worse when Brinda's brother rejected proposal for Sameer's sister. All the tantrums had to bear by Brinda ; but she never cared as Sameer was with her.

Brinda went to her home few days. Upon Sameer's whining she decided to return home before the two days. She didn't know; but In those days Sameer seemed little off and distant from her. ' might be missing her!' she thought and ignored. Behind her the well planned scheme always played which she doubted but never cared. Once she reached home, she found their main entrance was wide opened which was quite strange. She went inside and heard those same strange noises, like faint crying, begging; but this time little louder with clarity. She followed the sound but found a dead-end.

Her heart filled with strange sensation of fear and curiosity, when she moved one corner room which was unused from ages. To her surprise that door too was opened. She went inside and shocked to see staircase went underground. The more she moved forward the more clear she heard the noises. At the end her breathe hitched seeing the view in front of her.

' seven teen girls and two elderly lady were tied with rope near a pillar. They were crying and extremely horrified. Brinda recognized she saw two of the girl before as Sameer's sister brought them to home as they were friends. But the question why they were here and tied? She went near them; seeing her all got more horrified and started begging her, " please , spare us. We want to back home." She was confused as why they were afraid of her and requesting her.

" okay. Calm down, please." She tried to open all of their knots. They all were thanking her and about to fled when they heard heavy footsteps and started trembling.

" Not so soon, my butterflies." Sameer's father entered with two other men. Brinda sighed in relief while others shivered with frighten.

" see, papa. They were tied by mistakenly. I told you before , that I heard noises. See the source is from here. At last they will be freed." She said with a beam of happiness and satisfaction unknown to the rage created in father's figure.

" Shut up you witch. Because of you I am losing my son and now you dare to mess up my work. I won't leave you today." He spitted those words disgusted as if Brinda did any wrong.

" your work?" She asked being confused as when she did disturbances in their work. She did mind and language which he used for her; which was not appropriate.

" The girls you freed are ...." Before he could say further one of the girls put some courage and said, " he was a monster. He kept us tied for trafficking."

" what?" Shock was an understatement for what she heard. Still she was trying to figure out ways. " but aren't they friends of your daughter."

" no, they aren't . They are only a medium to my luxurious life. In exchange of them I can get ample amount of money, that's all I care about." Replied the daughter while entering. Brinda felt disgusted with such low people. What of Sameer too was one of them and covered up for them? No. That could not be. Her mind created only puzzles.

" Don't feel ashamed as a girl you are doing this to other. Please let them go." Brinda said authoritatively.

" of course bhabhiji, as you say." She mocked while laughed, so as other three joined. " we decided we let them enjoy few more days of freedom while you are being our first item. You know, you are highly appreciated which can give me enormous amount."Brinda felt fear gripped but more than that she felt choked. Before they could proceed they heard sameer was calling, Brinda's name. Before she could shout the two men caught her mouth and next her vision got blurred as surrounding become pitch black.

When Brinda's sense came back, she felt like moving. She opened her eyes , felt a tug of pain on her back side of head due to that hit. She become conscious of her position as she too was tied with others and they all were moving through a vehicle , which was like an enclosed vessel. She looked others were silently shedding tears. She remembered her mother always said 'patient and wit mostly needed in time of danger. And women should be virtue of those things. She is stronger than she knew.' Her aura was up on that and she knew what she should do. She sat up straight while looking at others and counted as they were 11 now against one driver and one guard. But they needed to open their tie first and second vehicle should be stopped.

She looked all were devastated except one who seemed little hopeful. Might be she had some idea. Brinda signed the one near her to reach near her shoe as she could not. She was looking at her questioningly but did as brinda said, as they all knew she tried to help them before. She told to plung out the knife which was fitted under her shoe.

"How?" the girl was shocked.

" my husband is in police. He told me to keep it for your emergency safety purpose." Brinda replied and mentally thanked Sameer as it was really helpful. With much difficulty they all untied and when brinda told them they could be free if they believe themselves, they all become enthusiastic and agreed they would do anything even their life was at stake. It's better to life at stake than dignity.

Suddenly one lady started to scream by holding her stomach while rolling on the metal floor causing a little shake. Immediately four other followed the same path and it created a big havoc definitely. Brinda shuttled at the guard through the little partition gap , " Stop the vehicle, they were in pain, may be something serious."

" stop your drama, I knew what you want." Rude harsh reply came.

" But, they need treatment, seriously." Brinda again asked when another lady fell down.

" if you won't stop bickering, then I will shoot you down." He threatened.

" Then go ahead. When you reach at spot and find everyone died because of poisoning or some other reason, you will get your reward there. You know what that reward will be?" Brinda shut up and smirked. She clearly saw her this trick worked. She suddenly heard he ordered driver to stop the vehicle. She signed the ladies to do as planned.

When the guard opened the back door , before he could show them gun point his wrist was cut and the immediate action made him numb seeing blood while few girls started kicked him there where sun doesn't shine. They were all venting out all of their anger. Hearing his scream when driver approached, he was being held on gun point immediately. The rest girls held him and tied while not leaving him. They all were not satisfied of kicking and scratching them. Brinda noticed a dark moon sign inside star on guard's wrist just like she once marked on his father in laws wrist. What it could be? She took out driver's phone decided to call Sameer but immediately dropped idea that may alert her in laws. Rather she called the nearest police control room.

Sameer was happy when he entered house and found Brinda's luggage. But his happiness destroyed when his father came and told him that Brinda came to return all what he gifted as she want a free life from him as he was too busy with his own life and to live with her boyfriend. He could not believe such but when he got exact text message from Brinda's, He was broken. Due to his duty he could not give a proper time to his wife , but he never thought she would leave her for such reason. He didn't know that Brinda's phone was with his father now which she dropped when hit by rod.

" its good in one way son. She was not good for you from start, but I was silence because you love her. I knew she will betray you." The father replied being proud that he would get his obedient son com dog back who only nodded on what he said.

" No , papa. There must be some other reason, Brinda can't do this." Sameer tried to justified but still his heart ache remembering the message. That was time when he crosschecked his father's talk after Brinda came which irked him.

" keep that girl out of your mind brother. She is a bitch." Sister's talk stopped when they heard, " we will soon know who is a bitch and witch."

Both father daughter were shocked seeing the scenarios, brinda stood there with cops and other girls. Without giving any prior talk she rushed up to her father in law and pulled up his sleeve, who was still in shock for the matter. Inspector clearly saw the same dark moon enclosed by star mark on his hand.

Before they could try to justify police arrested them. Sameer was too shocked at sudden changing situation, " wait, how dare you to put handcuffs on my father and sister."

" You stay away from this matter Mr Sameer. Because of you we never doubt those people. You too were a suspect until you wife proved your innocence." Inspector replied.

" But for what?"

" You are still unaware about the women trafficking gang. See the sign of members." Inspector showed Sameer what Brinda showed him. " they were cleverly stay behind our focus because of you and those people whom you were seeing were cleverly manipulated by your sister or father. They were being kept hostage here, even when your wife knew it they try to same for her ." That was a blow to Sameer. He never thought that his own family was betraying him.

" why papa?" he asked.

" because after she came you were not my loyal dog but becoming a human." The oldman spitted without ounce of regret. Sameer sat up as Brinda consoled her.

" you are never my son. I took you in as I thought you would be helpful to me. But no, you being good cop do your duty. Even that was good in one way , as nobody doubts us for you. Then this bitch came and destroyed everything."

" enough..not another inappropriate word to my wife or I will forget you even adopted me." Sameer roared while asked inspector to take them away. It must be a hardest blow for Sameer to realize such harass truth, but life would be better without ambiguity. It may be hard for Brinda to saw that much hatred at first and went through such harassment. but finally sun shined.

Brinda came out of her thought while community people applaud for her on his husband's speech. It was no less award ceremony for her. Life had many up and downs which could be covered by true inner strength and brave. No matter how a situation would be but being at your best always keep you spirited. Women's are no less than men, just the thing they need to realize it.
