The recorders were set up around the house. Just because Jake was suspicious that the culprit may make a next move so they all agreed to the idea. Even though they relaxed their conversation with Miss Gill for the time being, it doesn't mean she is free.
The next day Jake was finally discharged by the hospital. He is not fully recovered but he can work a little from now on. To celebrate his recovery Dayal throws a feast inviting almost everyone from the agency. Jake was not at all into it but then he was forced to be part of it.
"Why did you all have to do this? "He asked the other four.
"Mr.Dayal asked us to join so we did" Sid says.
"Aah,it's not a big thing to celebrate"Jake now takes a seat on the couch.
Beep….beep….
" I think it's fine"Sam says.
"Whatever"
Beep…beep… beep….
"Your phone is going off, Jake" Sam says.
"Oh"
"Hello! "
"Yes, this is Jake speaking"
"We got something to show you"
"Who are you? "
"That's not important, don't you wanna know about Disha Gill? "
"Umm, just the second"Jake excuses himself from the balcony.
" Yes, what were you talking about? "Jake asks.
" We got to tell you something about her. So come to the place I messaged you, alone. "The anonymous voice says.
" Okay "
Jake goes back to tell the other members but stops midway. He can inform them later if there is anything important. Moreover, the person said not to bring anyone else. What if it's a trap? He'll only know once he gets there.
Jake came out through the back door so that nobody notices him. He checked the message once again before starting the car. It's not important if gets any information or not but the fact that someone personally called him is more surprising. Maybe there is something that they don't know yet.
Driving through the dark Streets his eyes were constantly stuck to the rear view mirror. A few cars were suspicious but then he realized that they were just usual vehicles once they crossed him.
Finally he pulled over beside the sidewalk. He went to an alley as per the location. The alley ended shortly after a few walks to a huge wall, but no one was there. So he dialed in the phone number again to confirm.
"Hello, I'm here "
"Just go back"
"What the hell,you asked me to come here"
"But you didn't do what I said"
"What do you mean? "
"I asked you to come alone"
"I did"
"No."
The call ended and Jake was a little annoyed by that sudden flip. He tried to connect again but this time it was switched off.
"Who is he? " Jake said to himself.
"Jake! "
Now that someone called out his name,he knew that he was followed. Staggered by the sudden call, he turned around to see who it was.
"Samantha,what are you doing here?"
"That should be my question to you "
"I was here to meet someone"
"Who was on the call? "
"Huh,nothing much"
"Jake.. "
"Okay, okay. I don't know who he was but I guess we missed a clue just now"
"Clue? What on earth are you talking about? And why do none among us know about this? "
"He asked me to come here. Alone! "
"But, at least you should have told us"
"I know but it was so sudden. What if…if it was a trap and we got into some danger"
"So you thought of doing it alone?" She says curling her fingers at the last word,to make it prominent.
"I know this… "
"We are a team, Jake" She interrupts.
"Okay. I got it. Sorry." As he gently massaged her shoulders to comfort her.
She gave him a quick hug in return " Don't do this again and remember we are in this together "
"Sure"
