What! What did I hear?! They said Mohnish Oberoi. Mohnish Oberoi, father to Shashi Oberoi. My best friend's father.
What did he have to do with all this? What were these two people talking about? Did this mean something? Or am I hallucinating?
I got the answer to all these questions soon.

A man.. with some formals on, entered the room we were locked in. We were petrified seeing him. We didn't know what he wanted. Was he going to kill us? I didn't know.

He looked quite a well to do fellow. And neither of the men I just heard talking.
There was a sense of uncanny confidence in his eyes. Hands in the pockets of his pants. And a noble gait.
He walked towards us. Stopped at Shashi and lifted her head with his finger.

"Aaaahhh! Just like him.. you look!"
He said.

Then took a deep breath and continued.

"Oh! How I wish... He was here.
But don't you worry sweetie, he will be here. He will come to save you.. isn't he?!
Where shall he go? Huh?"
And let out a crooked laugh.

I noticed.. one of his teeth was golden. But that didn't matter that much then. Who was he talking about? And why was he so desperate to bring that person there..

Oh wait a minute. He might be talking about Mohan uncle.
The two people I overheard were also discussing about him. But why did he want Mohan uncle? And how did he even know him?

"And you!"
He turned towards me.

"You.. are the bait. Oh my god! If it wasn't for you..
I love you! So pretty.. so precious. I wish I could keep you with me.. forever!"
He spoke to me. His eyes glittering with sinister light!

I felt numb.

Then the man asked one of his hoodlums to hand him a phone.

He dialled a number and called it. The other person did not pick it up for like two times. And then picked up.

"Hello... So glad to talk to you after so long. It's been a while hasn't it?
Anyways.. I am here in the city for some work. Would you care to join?
Oh of course you would! What was I thinking?!.. ha ha..
Okay then.. you know where to come.. right! So see you in an hour. Babye!"

I could not figure out who the other person was. But seemed like a lady. I did not pay attention.
As for right now.. I was wrenched. I had been crying since I got here and was now feeling dehydrated.
I took a glance at shashi. She was sitting with the support of the cardboards. She looked depressed.
I was going to call her...
Suddenly, we heard a thud. As if someone had broken in.

I and Shashi looked at each other with out terror stricken eyes.

"Shashi.. Khushi.. how....
How.. are you guys! Are you okay..?"

"Rishubh?!"
I and Shashi cried in unison.
