Madhu looks into Rishabh's eyes to see his expression but he was looking at her very calmly & signed her to continue she took a deep breath & proceed to tell further.. 

Flash back 

"Who else other than that spineless creature who only knows to attack from behind.. "Madhu says furiously & Trishna understood she was hinting about Abhay kapoor.. Can he stoop this low for a good for nothing reason..?? She wonders.. 

"I will teach him a lesson.."Madhu says fisted her palm & looks away that's when she noticed a familiar figure standing outside the casualty ward.. The figure turned his face & his eyes fell on her.. Madhu frowns seeing Mukund standing there with blood covered shirt.. Somehow she knew this time he wasn't stalking her.. She had not seen him at least for once in the whole week .. Involuntarily her feet moved towards the casualty where he was standing.. 

"Pls don't think I came after you here too.. "he says seeing her opening her mouth to say something.. She shakes her head & ask him "What happened..??".. Hearing her question he sighed "I was going back to my apartment after my work when I saw that girl on road unconscious.. Some car hit her & sped away without stopping.. She was bleeding & ppl were just standing there simply doing nothing fearing about case & all.."he explains.. "She needs 1 unit of blood immediately.. When I inquired blood bank they said O-ve blood is out of stock & it will take time to arrange it.. ".. "Mins is O-ve .. I will give.. "Madhu says frantically.. Mukund looks at her surprised but didn't say anything & led her to the nurse to say donor is available .. 

An hour later

Madhu & Trishna were about to go when Mukund calls them from behind.. They turned back & sees him coming towards them..

"Thanks, Madhu.. Bcoz of u she is breathing now.."he says with gratitude.. "Hey, it's u who did so much for a stranger.. Mine is just a small help .."Madhu brushes it off with a smile.. 

"I.. Ugh.."He started to scratch his neck nervously.. 

"You what..??"Madhu raised a brow .. 

"hmm.. You may leave now.. "he shrugged with an embarrassed smile before going back inside the hospital .. Madhu looked on his retreating form confused .. Seeing Madhu standing there rooted to ground Trishna snaps her fingers before her.. 

"Hello Madam.. Where are you lost ..??"she asks her.. 

"Ha.. Nothing, Trish.. Come let's go.. "Madhu says holding her hand dragging her out.. 

-----     -----     -----     -----     -----

"So, what are you going to say home.. ??"Madhu asks her keeping her eyes on the road ahead.. 

"Will tell them I fell down & got hurt.."Trishna says softly caressing her hand over the bandage.. 

"Does it hurt ..??"Madhu asks concerned.. It got her upset that in a way she was the reason behind that Trishna got hurt ..

"No.. It feel really nice.. "She reply sarcastically.. Madhu just rolled her eyes at her sarcastic reply.. 

"You are not doing fair to him.."Trishna says  after a minute of pause ..

"To whom..??"Madhu asks frowning though she got about whom Trishna is hinting at.. 

"Don't act as if you don't know about whom I'm talking about.. "Trishna tells.. Madhu sighs hearing her seems like her friend is eager to play cupid in her life.. 

"What do you want me to do, Trish..??"Madhu asks tiredly.. 

"Why can't you give him a chance.. See how madly that poor guy loves you.. It feels so sad when the person whom we love doesn't pay two hoots to us .."Trishna tells sadly remembering her love.. 

"Inspired from your own life.. Hun..??"Madhu chuckles & earned a death glare from her best friend..

After dropping Trishna off to her home Madhu quickly drives to her home as it was really late.. Her papa would be really worried by now.. When he called her last time she lied him saying that she & Trish went to meet their common friend .. She didn't want to worry him.. 

-----      -----     -----     -----     -----

Madhu falls on the bed tiredly as thought about the last one hour.. She had came back 10.30 at night & her Papa was waiting for her as expected.. She very cleverly tried to ignore him but Malik being her father didn't budge & demanded answers from her after few futile attempts of lying she had to admit that she was in hospital with Trishna.. But she twisted the truth saying that someone tried to abduct Trishna but she managed to save her at right time completely hiding the part that she was their real target .. Malik seemed to believe it as he asked her whether Trishna was fine & Madhu felt bad for lying to her Papa.. She never hides things from him but she has to now or else she is damn sure he would freak out or worse would ground her to her room till he makes sure everything is well.. She didn't want either case to happen.. She knew who was behind it & she knew how to deal with it.. Her thoughts broke when she heard the beeping of her phone .. She opens the inbox & sees Goodnight msg from ID 'Stalker'.. She chuckles seeing it & replied back with a Goodnight & few seconds later when she was about to put the phone back she gets a msg again ..

"Whaatt..??!!". She frowns at the reply & asked back .. 

"What what..??"

"You replied me..!!"

"So..??"

"You actually replied to my msg .. Yippee..".. Madhu laughs seeing the msg.. When she didn't get any new message Madhu decides to sleep & then again her phone vibrated this time indicating a call.. For a moment she hesitated to pick the call.. 

"It's late.. "She said even before he could ask her anything.. 

"But you are still awake.. "he tells her.. 

"There is no use of arguing with you.. Is there..??"She asks tiredly..

"No.. "he grins..

"How is that girl..??"Madhu asks him.. 

"She is fine.. I called her parents & informed them.. Just reached back now from hospital.. "he said excitedly knowing he is actually talking with her..

Madhu takes a deep breath & asks hesitantly "Even after knowing being with me is not safe you, you still love me..??"

"You love me, Madhu.. "he asks her which sounded more like a statement & Madhu's eyes widened in shock ..

-----     -----    -----      -----     -----

"& that one question rather statement took my peace away from me.. Until then I just thought I like him but then it made me confused between like & love.. I didn't know what to do I was just confused.. I couldn't think straightly.. It all felt messed up.."Madhu tells Rk who was giving her his undivided attention.. "There was something in him that I loved & I knew for the first time I failed in a challenge.. "

-----     -----     -----     -----     -----

"Hey, Mukku.. what happened to you..?? Why are you are sitting like voltageless bulb.. ??"Madhu asks, as he sat on the beach looking towards the sea lost in thoughts.. 

"I was thinking about us.. "he said in an off tone ..

"What happened to us.. ??"She asks as she sipped on her ice-cream.. 

"It's been 4 months since we are dating & I felt it's the time to tell my parents' about us.. "hearing him Madhu turns to look at him paying proper attention to his words.. 

"I said them & they said no.. "he said as he turns his head away.. Madhu frowns "So are you planning to beak up with me..??".. Mukund looks at her shocked.. "How can you talk like that..?? You know na how much I love you.. "his voice cracked & eyes started to fill up .. "Hey..!! Why you always start to cry like K-soap heroines when I crack some jokes..??"Madhu asks bewildered.. "This might be a joke for you but not for me.. "he says by wiping his tears off.. "Ok baba.. I'm sorry.."She says by giving him a light hug.. 

"You know you shouldn't cry like this.. I feel like I'm gonna marry a girl .."She says by smiling & he smiles back.. "So what now ..?? Convince your parents..??"Madhu asks him.. "As if they hear me out.. If I go back to my village then they won't let me come back as they already know about our relationship now.."..

"Then what we will do now..??"Madhu asks him.. He holds her hands as he says "There is only one way .. Let's go far away from these mess where no one can reach us only you & me.. ".. Madhu's eyes widened in shock.. 

"What are you saying, Mukund.. ??!!"She asks shocked out of her wits.. 

"Let's elope & get married.."He tells her ..

"What..?? Have you gone mad..??"Madhu asks scandalized ..

"No, Madhu .. I'm very much serious.. & you also know na your life is not safe here.. For how long you will hide it from your father..? ?It's for our betterment.. Trust me .."he tells her softly.. 

"But, Mukund .. Papa is cool about us.. Then why we need to take such haste steps..??"Madhu asks him panicking.. 

"Your papa knows..??"he asks shocked.. Madhu nods her head slightly "I don't keep anything secret from him.. I said him I like a guy & he had no problem with it.. He said I will always make right choices only.."Madhu tells him.. He shakes his head as he tells her "Madhu, I know this is such a big step but believe me it's for us.. Do you think leaving my parents is easy for me..?? No.. But still I'm doing it for you, Madhu.. If you are not with me then why I need a life I will end my life.. "he tells her in finality.. Madhu looks at him wondering what to do.. Seeing her hesitation he cups her face & asks her "Do you trust me..??". Madhu nods her head.. "Then trust me in this too.. "He tells her & after contemplating for a while she nods her head.. "I will come to pick you up tonight.. Be ready.. "

Night 

"Madhu, are you done with packing..?? "Mukund asks from the other end .. 

"No.. Doing it.."Madhu says in a low tone sensing the sadness in her voice he says softly "I know it's hard for you even for me but it's all for our good future.. ".. She just hummed as a reply.. "Ok.. Pack soon.. I will be there at time.. "Saying this he cuts the call.. Madhu kept the phone back on bed & continued packing while wiping the tears that were flowing in between.. He was right everything is for everyone's good.. This is the right thing to do now.. She thought as she looked at the suitcase.. She takes her notepad & quickly jotted down a letter to her father saying she is has to go with the person she love coz of the adverse situation in his family & promising him she would come back to him very soon & don't be disappointed with his daughter & pls understand her situation.. As soon as she completed the letter she frowned to herself.. She felt it wrong.. She almost felt tempted to tear that letter into pieces but didn't do it.. She looked at the packed luggage & sighs as more tears fell from her eyes.. Why something felt wrong..?? Or everything.. She thinks as her father's face came in front of her eyes & automatically she dragged her feet to his room.. She opens the door & walked towards the bed.. Her father was sleeping without knowing his daughter is going to go far away from him.. Madhu kneeled down near bed as she looked at him as he thought about her all moments with her father.. Then a memory from her childhood came in front of her eyes..

"Malikji.. You are still young.. Look Madhu is only 8 don't you think she needs the love & care of a mother.. Move on in your life.. You know get married.. "A man in his late 30s adviced Malik.. 

"No Shaan .. What if my the new woman doesn't take care of my Madhu..?? What if she feels like an outsider in my life..?? I can never afford a drop of tear in her eyes.. My whole life is for my daughter only.. I will not let her feel the absence of her mother.. I will be her father & mother.. "Malik vowed.. 

Madhu breaks out of her trance.. Now she understood why everything felt wrong coz what she was going to do was wrong.. Her father lived his whole life for her & her happiness & here she simply was ready to leave him for what..?? For her own selfish reasons.. Never for once did she think about how would be her father if she leaves him.. Can he be able to bear it..?? No.. & she realized she can never leave her father's for her sake.. Determined Madhu stood up & mumbled a sorry to her father's sleeping form for even thinking of leaving him.. She walks back to her room when her phone starts to ring again & she sees Mukund's name flashing ..

"Hello, Madhu.. Come.. I'm here.. "he tells her.. She looks out through the window & saw a car parked outside her house & Mukund on driving seat.. 

"I'm not coming Mukund.. "Madhu tells him in a determined tone.. 

"What..??"came his shocked reply.. 

"I can't be selfish like that Mukund.. Trust me nothing will happen to me & us.. I can't leave my papa.. He wil talk with your parents & he will make everything alright.. "Madhu tells him ..

"But, Madhu.. "he was cut off by Madhu "My decision is final Mukund .. I'm not coming.. "she tells.. 

"Madhu come outside.. "He tells her.. "Mukund, I said na.. "he cuts her off.. "Madhu, just come outside.. I want to talk with you in person..".. "Nothing will change my decision.. "She tells him.. "Plz.. Just come.. "He almost pleaded.. "OK.."She tells as she cuts the call .. She kept the phone on her bed & started to walk outside wondering what he wanted to tell her.. Once she reach near the car she asks him "What's it..??".. He looks at her furiously then in second he cupped her mouth & dragged her to the backdoor of the car forcefully while Madhu was too shocked to react.. He pushed her inside the back seat & locked door.. Then coming to the driver seat he got into it & starts the car.. Madhu was was too shocked to react as it took a minute  for her to contemplate what was happening.. Then seeing the car moving from the place & she sits up on the seat & furiously asks him.. "What the hell is this Mukund..?? Stop the car.. "

"Not a word from you.. Not a word.. "he shouts at her .. Madhu looks at him shocked then composing herself she asks him.. "What happened to you..??why are you behaving like this..??".. "Oh Just shut up ok.. You always ruin my plan.. First played hard to get now when I'm on the verge of my success you bring your fu**ing sentiments to ruin it.. "He tells her furiously.. "Plan..?? What plan ..??"Madhu asks shocked as her eyes started to well up with tears.. He grins evilly as he said "All in good time sweetheart .."Madhu feels him speeding the car that's when she realized they had came a long away from her house.. She felt negative vibes as her heart started to beat against her chest ..

"Where are you taking me..?? Stop the car.. "She yells furiously as she grabs his neck to make him stop the car.. "You bi**h.. "he shouts angrily as he pushed her back forcefully.. Madhu's head hit the glass window & she felt her consciousness slipping away.. 

-----     -----     -----     ------     ------

Rk looked at her shocked as tears streamed down her cheeks.. 

"I was just a fool who believed him blindly & jumped into his trap.. I thought I will be safe with him while he was the one behind me since the start.. I trusted him like a fool while he was just playing with my heart & feelings just to sell me off to his boss.. "Madhu yells out in agony while Rk stood there rooted to ground.. Madhu collapses on floor crying.. 

Seeing her crying her heart out Rk came into his senses as he kneeled before her as he takes her in arms .. Tears fell from his eyes too as he thought about the pain she had to go through.. 

"Then how did you escape from him, Madhu.. ??"Rk asks her softly.. 

"I.. I shot him.. I put the bullet right on his skull.. I killed him.. "Madhu tells him choking her tears giving him another shock .. She killed Mukund..??!!
