MIRANGE OF SECOND CHANCES. #Regular Updates

chapter 84

Ishita and Shagun out of fear pushed her out of the door and ran across the hallway to a bedroom that was at the corner of the floor. Shagun was terrified and so was Ishita and they knew that if he came in he would do anything he wanted. The music had begun to play and it was really loud so chances were high if they screamed, no one would hear them. Ishita began to think of ways that they could get out of this mess but Shagun was in panic overdrive and she had stopped thinking
'Ishita listen... I know he is going to kill us so please I have a few things I need to tell you. Please...'' she began to talk but Ishita wouldn't let her
'Shut up... I do not want to hear it. I need to think and get a way out of this place...'' Ishita said
As Ishita looked around for something they could use in case he came in,Shagun began to call Raman's number but every time she did he just hand up and made his phone busy.
''Please Raman Pick up...'' She said as she tried again and again
After a minute of two the key in the door knob turned and in he came and Ishita with all the worries of the world knew that this was it. He walked in with that locked the door before he turned to look at her and said
'Come on... Did you really think I didn't come prepared? I have been planning this for a month. Please give me some credit...'' He said with a smug look on his face
'Leave her alone... I will take you to Shlok... I got to find out where they are keeping him...'' Said Shagun as she came forward and stood in front of Ishita but Mr. Khanna just pushed her aside walking to Ishita as he said
'You know... You and I meeting again was destiny. You can imagine my elation when I found out you had some gaps in your memory... I knew when your father and husband didn't come picking me up that you didn't quite remember what happened that day in that building...'' Said Mr. Khanna as he removed the gun from his pocket that had a silencer and sat down across from where Ishita was standing
'You need to leave before Raman gets here. I called him already and he will be here any minute...'' Said Ishita stammering
'You see... You're a bad liar... Horrible in fact... Your husband thinks you're with Ishana and well Ishana is... so let's just say... she won't be hampering my plans...'' Said Mr. Khanna
'What the hell did you do?'' screamed Ishita
'Arrrhhh...'' he screamed with her before he laughed saying
'You see this house is too big and that music is too loud and you are at the other end of the house... Remember...'' she said
'Please leave me alone... What do you want from me... Please...'' Said Ishita as she began to tear up
'Ohh... Are we sad now...? Come on the fun has just begun. Listen I promise to tell you a secret before I blow your brains out. You see your husband took something away from me, I am taking something from him...'' Said Mr. Khanna
'Mr. Khanna Please...'' Shagun said almost as if she was asking him to just shut it
'Bitch shut it or I will spill your brains on the floor...'' he said pointing a gun at Shagun
'This is not...'' Shagun tried to speak again
'Ptwe... Ptwe ...'' Off went the gun and he shoot Shagun in the arm which scared her too much that out of shock and fear she fainted
'Bitch steals from me, I forgive her, bail her out and she steals again in a bid to help you. Hahahaha she somehow thinks this is her redemption. Daman idiot... That ought to teach her to never double cross me again.'' He said before he turned to Ishita and said
'By the way, she still has the hots for your husband. You really shouldn't be so friendly, nave and gullible...'' he said but Ishita was too terrified to speak because this was a scene that was all too familiar.
'Now where was I? Oh yes...You see your husband and I have had problems for a very long time. You see my idiot of a son, Shlok was in charge of my businesses here and I was handling my abroad upcoming ones. I wanted to venture out and be a big business man and it had always been my dream. But you see, Shlok goes and falls in love with this demon...'' he said pointing at Shagun who was still unconscious
'Now I actually had no problem with her after all, my son was happy. But what no one told me was how her crazy husband would get when he found out. To cut this very long story short... He screwed me over... Brought my businesses to the ground and f**ked me over. You see in one of the deals that he used to buy my company... He blackmailed by junkie of a son Suraj and ended up having it for 3 times less the price it was worth, then dismantled it such that no one remembered Shlok, well in this instance it is technically me...'' he said as he came forward grabbing Ishita by the head as he pulled her up to the bed
'I Akash Khanna become a common middle class man... Me... With all the power I had I had to watch from a far while it got taken away from me little by little and he had to pay. So cue Shagun and all her hatred and jealousy which weren't that hard to manipulate except he fought tooth and nail. We had to put a stop to it so... We threatened to take his kids away and he sort of simmered down. So me, I did the same and let sleeping dogs lay. But then he goes and takes my son Suraj to jail and the whole thing begins again. You see my children with all their flaws and faults are still my kids...'' He said
'Wow...Now I know where they get their manners from...'' Said Ishita as she put her hands behind and hit redials calling Raman's number again
Mr. Khanna walked over to where she was and put a gun on her head
'Don't insult me... I don't like it very much when people insult me...And my kids... I protect them with everything in me'' He said
There are not kids... They are grown men with ill manners and dark hearts and I can see all thanks to you...'' She ended up saying and he in anger slapped her
'Shut it... You're in no position to throw senile comments right now. Plus you see I lost a lot of money when Suraj went to jail, it is only fair that I collect...'' he said
'Wait this was all about money all along...'' she said
'Of course... Always has been... He screwed over my business when Suraj went to jail... I didn't appreciate it...'' he said
Ishita tried to back track and remember how all this was connected and it didn't take long to put two and two together. It was made sense now, Mr. Khanna, Suraj, Tarish, Shlok it made perfect sense now.
'Wait... It was you all along that Suraj traded drugs for... It was you all along...'' She said after hitting that realization
'Good... You catch on easy...'' He replied
She sat back and remembered the nightmares Ruhi used to have even after Suraj was caught
'Ishima please tell Aditya to come back. He did something wrong and I apologize on his behalf just please bring him back. He will take him away like he did the others. Please Ishima''
It absolutely made perfect, in fact it was a more probable reason as to how Tarish came to get in touch with Mr. Khanna. He was trafficking drugs and he was using kids as mules. It actually made for perfect business because no one would suspect that they even knew each other. I mean it was brilliant
'Oh My God you were working with Tarish all along...'' Said a surprised Ishita
'Well yeah... I was actually surprised it took you long to figure that one out. Shlok the poor boy had absolutely no idea what I and Suraj actually were doing. I don't know how he thought we got all that money from that stupid as company. It was just a front for money laundering...'' he said smiling
'How could you leave with yourself? That son of a bitch uses kids as mules? What if that was your child that they would stuff with drugs...'' she screamed
'Well I protect my children and I am not as careless as most parents. Blame them not me and as for using kids, they are very cheap labor because they are innocent and free of charge as well...'' he added before walked to Shagun who was slowly getting up and smacked her across the face again just so she could go to sleep
'You can imagine my surprised when he talked about this girl he knew back in Lucknow. He used tell me about his hate for you and how he would one day take his revenge. Then Shagun walks in with this plan that she had with Shlok and they were looking for someone to use as bait for Simmi. She wanted to teach you a lesson and she was levied with you over some bullshit I can barely remember... Then in came Parmeet.  Barger would do anything for money and we paid him extra to make sure Shagun never really found out a thing. Anyway Shagun had to come with a picture of Simmi such that he knew who he was to work with. The day she brought that picture, it had all of you in it and when he set his eyes on you they almost popped out and our plan was born that day. Their plan was to break you and Raman up, ours was to sell you off and see Raman cry while we do it... You see you're famous in the underground world... The girl who took down Ms. Tee... You were a legend...'' He added
She knew as he told her about what transpired she would use this opportunity to try and call Raman with the Phone that she still had in her hands. All she had to do was bait him a little more and he would gladly talk because he was a narcissistic human being who loved nothing but himself more than anything.
'You just let your son rot in jail... You could have helped. Did it occur to you that this would bite you in the ass...'' Said Ishita but Mr. Khanna just laughed and turned to look at her and that is when he saw it
He walked over to where she was grabbing the phone that was in her arms and smashing it across her room before he smacked her across the face
'Just don't annoy me and everything will be fine you see...'' He said before he grabbed his phone calling some one
'What the hell is taking so long...'' he said through his phone
'Well make it snappy your taking way too much time...'' he added before he turned to her and said
'Anyway... Enough jibber jabbers... I want your husband to tell me where the hell he has kept my son Shlok or better yet... You are going to tell me. Do not give me the whole I doesn't know speech and he didn't tell me speech like you gave Shagun, I won't buy it...And I will blow your  brains out'' He said staring at her
'He won't tell you... I know he won't... I won't let him... You all need to be locked up or better yet put in an asylum because you are all crazy...'' She said as she tried to pull away
He grabbed her and pushed her to the bed again causing her to hit her head on the headboard and she arched back pushing him back with everything she had

'You are feisty... I like that... Tarish was right, you are a fighter. You know we were supposed to sell you off but that damn idiot stabbed me in the back...The fool wanted to save his cancerous mother. Then that Abhimanyu spoilt everything. You ...'' Said Mr. Khanna as he grabbed her hand and dragged her to the floor as she repeatedly fought back
Ishita listened to him talk and she began to have flash backs one by one of what happened that night and in a slit second or two, it was like she never even forget in the first place... Everything was clear as day and it gave her more reason to fight him.
'I am going to blow your brains out but before that... I will make sure that he watches me do it and I will also find my son, I always do... So my sweet darling...'' he said as he leaned putting the gun on her head again.
What did you say...'' Asked Ishita as she came out of her stance
'Oh I am going to blow your brains out. It is what I meant to say...'' he said as he smiled at her with this smug expression
Ishita had a lot of things going on in her mind and in that moment all she could think about is what she would lose if she didn't fight back. She wasn't going to let him instill fear in her and take advantage of her. She looked at him and arched her head forward head butting him before she grabbed the jug that was by the bed and hit him with it making him unconscious.
She ran to the door and tried to open it but she realized that the lock had somehow jammed and it wouldn't open. Shagun who was just coming back to consciousness heard her scream and came to help and together they began to bang on the door as they screamed for help
