' Just what on the earth are you doing?' Since, she couldn't decipher his actions anymore. So, she couldn't help but ask him out loudly.
Loud enough for all the members of the house to listen them out.
' If you can hack The Un System, then how come you can't defeat those opponents?' He asked back in curiosity.
[A gentle reminder: Since they are in the penthouse. So, they aren't practically speaking. They are speaking in the way of thinking.]
' Well… that case was different.. This one is different..' She replied, getting a little confused by her own statement.
And as expected, even he raised his eyebrow, in confusion.
' What.. I mean it… The thing that I am trying to say is…. That.. Person needs to practice on a daily basis, to hone one's skills. But, I haven't even seen any technology or piece of it, for a long time. So,I am a little out of the flow.' She replied in the way of justification.
' Then ,how much time do you need to get back in the flow?' He asked next.
' 24 hours complete, without any disturbance. Complete silence.' Kia replied seriously. While emphasizing on each and every word fully, to let them understand the gravity of the situation.
' But, what if we got attacked by our opponent, by then?' Zunaid asked back.
After all, giving 24 hours of seclusion to her, under these circumstances is no less than the definition of impossible itself.
If it had been any other day or time, or situation , Saheed might have handled it. But, what if they got attacked technically, then won't they be digging their own grave.
' Any other option?' Shiva asked back, for the first time in all seriousness.
' There's none.' Kia replied, while hanging her head low to the chair. As if it wanted to touch the ground. After all, she knows how important it is and how gravely dangerous it could turn into.
But , they were helpless against it.
' Just suppose, if we gave you 24 hours,then.' Saheed asked.
If she needs it, then they have to give it to her, at every cost. After all, she is the main pillar of this case. And they definitely want her to give her best, just like them , too.
' Then, you all will be dead, by then.' Kia replied in a serious tone. After all, she might not be many things, but understanding the Gravity of each and every thing and situation was one of her specialties.
And all the homies gulped at her stating the most cruel fact.
'That's not what, I asked.' Saheed persisted.
' Putting your lives in danger, has never been an option either.' She replied back.
She could bear any other cost, but not this.
' But..' Nazma tried, even though she knows that she is trying to put their lives as bait.
' Please…. M…. please don't… I beg you.' Kia replied. Although her voice was stern, but still it was wavering a lot.
Even though everyone heard it, only Nazma understood what just happened.
Unknowingly Nazma just touched Kia's weak nerve.
' Fine, as you say, My Lady. Just be more careful then.'Nazma replied back.
She knows Kia can't move on from that incident which happened one year ago. So, rather than breaking Kia completely down into pieces., by treading on her weakness. It's better to not to excite her more, than she already was.
And there, it was … that look… that broken look of her… which Saheed had watched that night, when she was talking with the person, on the other side of the phone.
And even though he knew that it could lead them to their very death, he still was ready to give it up for her, for her 24 hours. But then, after knowing her. He knows she lives to save other's lives. Then, how can she allow them to put themselves in danger for her. That definitely isn't her character at all.
' Then, we have to be aware of the tech part.' He concluded.
' There's another way.' Shiva finally butted his nose in this discussion.
He has always been a sensitive, emotional type of person. So, when he heard her vulnerable voice. He decided to give it his all, too. After all, he will be betraying them in the near future. So, he already has a guilt. Because, he would be putting his county above the whole World and all the innocent lives, sooner.
' And what's it?' Nazma asked back, with anger visible in her voice, in utmost frustration. Everyone is serious here. And here comes the definition of funniness.
" I can do tech work,too." He replied. Firstly, he was planning to just act like a viewer in this mission. But, he knows, this girl, Agent K, definitely is one hell type of a personality. And when he heard that vulnerable voice. He just couldn't keep himself from butting in.
' Can you?' All the five members asked in unison. Wow, within these crucial moments, they actually forgot this fact. To say nothing about Country I , even Country P's agents were shocked to their very breaths.
[ Fine guys, another confusion, right! Well, again the editing takes it's toll. Before editing it was the time, when homies know about Shiva's hacking and tech thing. So, they were shocked.
But after editing, they long knows this guy can do that.]
Yep!!! They almost forget to breathe!!!! That represents the effect of this bomb on them. They only thought he knows about hacking, but can he really deal with tech work, completely like them, too?
'Will you stop acting like…. Like.. clowns.' He said sarcastically. Well, he definitely wanted to say ( Stop acting like a piece of shits…) but after seeing Nazma, who was one among them ,too.
He just controlled himself on time. After all, calling your love at first sight.. Like that… definitely isn't what a gentleman like him should do, right!!!!! [Ahem, a new angle in the story]
' You want us to believe you.' Kia asked back.
Fine, even if they were a team, he was the last person, she wants to believe in. One of the reasons, she stays as far away from him as possible.
