It was two in afternoon.. The sun was high in the sky.. Like it had covered the whole place with a golden quilt.
Shiha held the taxi and decides to go to Heaven Hills. She want alone and peaceful atmosphere around her.
She reached at the bottom of the hill.
Just as she took a step, she saw a vendor was selling some unique things..
She turn and ware the mask.. She was careful not to let anyone notice it. Then She walk over there..
There were many people buying things from that vendor.
Shiha stop towards it and took a look at those things. Shiha saw so many different things. Just then her sight fell on the small round thing.. It look like a thick coin. Slight bigger then the coin size. When the vendor saw shiha and followed her gaze.. He immediately came to know that shiha was interested in it. The vendor welcome shiha and said..
"Miss, you are interested in it.. Actually it would be surprise to know that this is actually a knife."
Indeed, shiha was surprised when the vendor said that this is knife.
The vendor took the knife opened it and show it to shiha.. "Miss, this is the folded knife. It is flexible and can be folded in a round shape."
Shiha took it and analyse it. She thought.. 'interesting.. It can be easily carried and can be hide. I must show this to Lin chu. With his technology mind he can add something to it.. And i can carry it anywhere.'
As if the Vendor reads her mind.. He said. "Miss, you can carry it anywhere without any fear and you can use it as a weapon too for your safety. Nowadays every girl should carry something for her safety."
Shiha agrees to him. Then she finally decides to buy it. She buy total five knife. She thought she can give to her friends too. The vendor was happy that he gets to earn more.
She climbed up and sat on her usual place, near the edge of the hill.
Many people were their,enjoying there own time with their family.
Shiha took a long deep breath. She looked around herself.. All she can see were people either with their family or with their partners..
She lay down flat on the ground.
She was little bit far from everyone. She closed her eyes. And feel the surrounding peace.
She opened her eyes.. She roll her eyes.. At that time she saw that a child was crying in her mother's arm.
Shiha sit straight and turn her head towards them..
The lady was trying to calm her child. She sat on the ground and breast feed the child. The child stopped crying..
Shiha gave a bitter smile.. 'i wish my mother would have feed me. But she choose to abandoned me.'
Shiha again lay back to the ground. She looked up towards the sky and said..
'ohh.. God, i seriously don't understand your plans sometimes.
I agree, you don't give everything to everyone.. You gave me power, richness, fame and name, intelligent mind, sharp brain and of course a beautiful face. But you didn't gave me the love. Love of my parents. People fight for money, for power.. And don't care about family. You know why, because people usually don't care about things which they get easily. And moreover, now everywhere I see around me is.. Mother taking care of her child. Just because i didn't get that care. And the more i don't want to see this scene, the more you make my surrounding like this.'
There were tears in her eyes.. She continued..
'Seriously, i am tried of this.. Please give me the love of my life. I also want to be loved by someone. I am tried of faking this ruthless and arrogant front. In front of everyone, i am The Queen. The heartless Queen, who never cares about anything. But You know God, how much i care for others. My friends always tell me, 'shiha you have so much time to help and save others.' But God only you know, why i always run forward to help others. I just don't want them to be like me..i don't want others to bare or endure the pain i bared. I help others because, when i was in need of help, that time no one came to help me.
And because of that, i had paid the huge price for it. Till now i can't forget that.. Its a nightmare, which i can't forget..'
The tears were flowing from her eyes like the water drip from the leaking pot.
She cried after a long time. She always cries alone.. So no had seen her crying. Except the walls and the place were her tears fall.
Shiha continued, talking to God and herself.
..
Outside the Sheng corporation..
Ruihan walks out from the company.
His bodyguards were on high alert now. After getting the information that someone is behind him. His team was already busy in finding the perron behind it.
Ruihan sat in his car. Assistant An started the car. And the bodyguards sat in two different cars. On car moves ahead of Ruihan's car and the other followed behind.
Ruihan was going for the inspection on the project site..
He reached there.. The heads of the project site were already present there.
They guide Ruihan and Assistant An inside. After seeing everything inside. They walk out. Ruihan was busy in looking the surroundings. But from here he can't get the proper view of the site.
So one of the manager said.. "President Sheng, if you want to see the whole view.. Then you can see it from the top of the hill. There is the hill not far away."
Then Ruihan and Assistant An went towards the near hill. And it was none other than Heaven Hills.
Ruihan and Assistant An walk towards the hill. He ordered the bodyguards, not to follow him upwards. He would be back soon. So there is no need of bodyguards on the top.
Ruihan and Assistant An climb up the hill. As they reached at top, Ruihan walked around.. Then he walk towards the projet site direction. He viewed it from there. It was already around five in the evening.
Ruihan went towards the edge.. He love the surrounding and the peaceful atmosphere. The view was great. The Heavens Hill was surrounded by huge mountains at one side and the other was open end. Where the river flows at the bottom. When he walk towards the other edge. He saw the girl lying down on the ground almost near the edge..
Assistant An too saw the girl..
"such a brave girl, did she know she almost near the the brink of the cliff."
When they both walk towards the girl, they both were shocked and surprised.. By seeing the familiar face.
Assistant An with the wide eyes saw the girl. Took a step forward then said..
"isn't she.. Ahh.. What's her name.. Yes Miss shiha."
After remembering her Assistant An said.. "is she here to end her life or what."
Ruihan stopped there. He was in deep thought.. Did she really came her to end her life.
Shiha felt someone's presence around her. She opened her eyes. And looked over. She saw two man were standing not too far away from her. Just few steps away. When shiha opened her eyes she saw everything upside down. She stood up and wiped her face.
And from the sudden movements she almost stumbled.. Ruihan caught her arm from the elbow immediately before she tripped over..
Now Shiha saw clearly their face.
"oh..Thanks. After a long time. How are you both."
"Miss what are you doing here." asked Assistant An.
"ohh. Just for the fresh air. I come here often." replied shiha.
Shiha looked around she don't want others to see her puffy eyes which happened because she cried. She said.. "you guys come here often too.."
"aahh.. No, we come here for our work."
When shiha turned her face, not to show her cried eyes to them, suddenly she saw some movements far on the mountain. She squint her eyes and focused over their. Then she turned her face towards Ruihan.. She was shocked, when she saw the red dot on Ruihan's chest.
Ohh.. Its..
With out further thinking.. Shiha pushed Ruihan to the side..
"Hey.. Be careful.." shouted shiha.
When shiha pushed Ruihan, unknowingly, she came on the target place and the shot was hit on her right shoulder.
"aah hhaa..."she immediately kept her left hand over there.
When she moved her hand, her palm was full of her own blood.
Ruihan and Assistant An were shocked.." Ahh.. Miss." said Assistant An.
Ruihan immediately supported shiha and looked at the direction from where the shot was made. He too saw the movements. The air around him, turns cold.. His sharp eagle like eyes saw the assassins..
Assistant An took out his phone to made a call. And at the same time run towards the direction from were the assassin had shot the bullet.
Ruihan looked at shiha who was in his embrace. With a concerned voice he asked.. "Are you ok.. Let's go to hospital immediately."
They were already near the edge and when Shiha pushed Ruihan, and she too took a step near the edge when she bend slightly in the pain.
They both were only the step away from the brink.
Ruihan took a step with shiha in his embrace.
when the assassins show that they missed the target, then one of the assassin took a sharp stone from his bag with a small bow and throw it at Ruihan. This time he targets Ruihan's head.
Suddenly the stone was thrown in Ruihan's direction and hit his head.. Because of that he lost the balance. And shiha too lost her balance as she was in his embrace. They both took a step back and the second step back made them to lost whole control of themselves.. And both fell down from the hill.
Shiha and Ruihan screamed.. But was no use..
Like the time have stopped itself.. The cold freezing wind blows heavily.. The atmosphere turns cold and there was silence in the air.. Every one who saw it where shocked.. They got the goosebumps.. They had never seen something like this..
They fell down from so high.. Not much but few people saw it. They too came forward but far from the edge. They were now more afraid, when they saw that the girl was shot and then both fell down from so high.
"There is no chance that they may alive."said someone among the crowd.
The others agreed to him.
"yes..and moreover they are injured.. The girl might definitely die."
"We should call the police.." said someone.
Assistant An came running near the edge.. He shouted.. "BOSS..."
But too late..
