Kayra did not know what she will say to Kush or how he might react after what happened last night. She will probably ask to meet him, but won't that be too much of a torture for both of them?
Her head was a total mess! What if he got the wrong idea, meeting won't be a good idea. Maybe ask me to have lunch together with other colleagues. That probably will solve the issue.
Anyway, the main task now is to call him. Just when Kayra took her phone out of her purse, it started ringing.
It was an unknown number. Her initial hunch was to ignore the call and hence she did.
It did not stop with only one call! Another call with the same number followed. This time Kayra answered the call.
'Now, you won't even answer our calls?' came the voice over phone.
Kayra knew all too well as to whom that call belonged. It was Garry.
'What do you want from me? Are you not done after messing with my drink?' Kayra was angry and her tone was depicting her mood very well.
Garry is a professional when it comes to his prey, 'Messing? Darling, you used up 75K worth of stuff that day! Whose gonna pay for that?' he said.
'I used it?' Kayra was stunned. 'You used ME to sell your stuff. I don't think I'm supposed to pay for that. What did you expect? Was I supposed to die after consuming that soiled drink?'
'You know, there is no way out of it. At the end you'll have to pay the amount. So, why don't you cooperate and give it to us while we're still being nice?' Garry said. This time his voice was calm as if he was sure of Kayra's next move. As if he's watching her actions.
'Why do you think that?' asked Kayra. 'Anyway, I've had enough of your blabbering. I've a flight to catch.'
'Don't you dare hang up on me!' Garry threatened her.
'Not unless you want to see your friend Kush in trouble!' added Raavie by taking the phone in his hands. 'You think you're smart? Think again! Why were we not following you yesterday when Kush offered you a ride? Why were we at his place?'
'What did you do to him?' Kayra panicked by the mere hint of Kush's name. 'Im gonna have to call the police now! You wait and watch.' She tried to threaten him.
Kayra has this strong face when she is faced with trouble. She gets into this mode and try using wit for her way out. Although it's rare for this side of hers to come out but once it is out, she's a different person altogether.
'Go ahead! Call whoever you want. You think that will help you?' Raavie continued. 'Now, listen to me very carefully.
We did not do anything to your friend. He's safe but only until you comply! Bring 75k to Kush's place, we will meet there in an hour.
If you don't wanna come or don't have the money to spare, I won't mind calling police over his place for the Drugs we hid in his flat yesterday night!
You can try and find them if you like but I'm sure police will be able to do it better. So, now that we're clear I hope to remind you that calling anybody for help will only add to your stupidity.
See you in an hour!'
With this the call disconnected.
One simple phone call can change the entire world. A few seconds can make a huge difference.
Kayra can't ignore this, she can't risk Kush's life and career over her stupidity. She has to do something. But, she can't call the Police nor does she have any friends beside Kush.
She called Kush but he did not answer. He probably is mad at her. But this has nothing to do with it.
She went to the bank and withdrew the amount. 75K was the entire balance of her account. She's almost bankrupt.
This 75,000 was saved through doing various part time jobs, freelancing and the payment from the internship. She gets allowance money from her parents and never spent money from her earnings. She was saving in order to buy something for her parents.
Now, this entire sum of money will be gone. Just because of her recklessness!
She took a cab to Kush's place and reached there within half an hour. She had a very bad feeling about all this but she was left with no option since there is no way out. Kush is not even replying to her calls, she doesn't remember what happened yesterday when she was leaving with Kush for her place. She has no idea what went between the duo and Kush on the two days when she was unconscious.
Now, she enters the building in which Kush stays but little did she know what awaits her there.
