'Here table number 4 order' I give tray in Sunil's hands who nods and go to serve it on guest's table . Looking around the dining area I take a breath for relaxing myself as now I can go home after a long day .
I start preparing myself to leave as the guest on table 4 too had their food and now leaving , Sunil come back with tip and tray towards kitchen area  he offered me half sum from tip but I deny waiting for restaurant to close quickly so I can go home my toes hurting now .  Everyone start clearing things  I'm wiping plates and arranging them when manger say  'guys some guests are coming in'  god why can't people just have food in their houses ! Why they need to come here this late !  All of again back to work ready to serve our last guests(hopefully) I fill glasses with water to offer it to guests on there table the moment they set on chairs as a good server I am . Their laughing can be heard which indicates they are coming with good mood and the moment tainted glass door open and they come in all the energy I have in me left seeing him with the group laughing on something . What —-Why he is here !

Before his eyes tore from the people with him and lands in front I quickly turn going inside kitchen taking some nervous breaths , I have to hide if he find out I'm here he'll surely kill me without wasting a minute. My sudden outburst in kitchen confuse some staff members and chef as usually I didn't behave like this they look at me with questioning eyes Malini ask me 'what happen ?'

'I—-I feel like I'll throw up any minute feel dizzy too can you please serve on my behalf I—i just can't go out in front of guests' I say sliding my glasses upwards on my nose which I do when I'm nervous or scared . She nods in understanding but made a face reflecting her annoyance .

I go towards staff washroom to hide but my eyes betrayed me I peak through the small glass window at the wooden door of washroom and my eyes stuck on his face his spotless face which still have that smile I wished to see in past his eyes look little bit tried which won't let his smile reach to his eyes but still after four years too he look so handsome a handsome devil sitting there like he some king or sorts well technically if you have so much money in your bank account and family who support your every dumb decision than it's natural to feel like a king .  For a second he stop what he's talking about and suddenly look in my direction I quickly hide behind washroom wall praying he didn't see me and it's seems like luck is with me as 5 minutes passed but no one called me nor he roar my name with pure hatred I'm safe .

I take my bag putting on my hoodie opening the back door which is connected to the backwards alley I escape from restaurant taking a deep breath of relief that once again I'm free but my illusion broke when his voice comes from the dark alley

'Meera .. Ah we met again what lovely surprise you gave me wifey' his amused voice came and he reveal himself from the dark facing me with a smirk on his lips which I hate so much.
He come close to me looking at me like he knew this moment come . He held my hand in his iron grip and start dragging me with him probably to kill me just like I killed his happiness four years ago..
