Part 3. Shreya at Rudra's house

Shreya had run away from Rudra's mansion. She ran straight to her hostel, she was very scared that Rudra might catch her. Shreya quickly comes inside her hostel room.

Shreya's roommate Jyoti sees her and asks her - "Shreya, what are you wearing?"

Saying this she starts laughing.

Shreya was wearing a bridal dress. She ignores his words and quickly starts packing her clothes.

Jyoti gets worried after seeing this and says, "What happened Shreya, what are you doing and what is all this, where are you coming from, you have vermilion in your parting, mangalsutra around your neck and this wedding dress, have you got married?"

While closing her suitcase, Shreya says, "Look Jyoti, I don't have much time to tell you anything. If you want to know something, then watch today's news channel. I am going back home."

Jyoti, surprised to hear this, says, "Do you mean you are going back to your home, to Kolkata?"

Shreya-"Yes I am going to Kolkata." Saying this she goes out of the room. Jyoti keeps calling her.

On the other hand, Rudra returns to his mansion and goes straight inside his room but he does not find Shreya in the room. Rudra then checks inside the bathroom.

He goes to check but Shreya was not even in the bathroom. Rudra then checks in the balcony, Shreya was not even in the balcony. Seeing this, Rudra clenches his fist and comes out of the room and calls the servants. On hearing his voice, the servants quickly stand in a line with their heads bowed.

Seeing them all, Rudra grits his teeth and says, "Where is Shreya and who opened the door? I had locked the door from outside before leaving, so who had the audacity to open the door without my permission?"

Hearing Rudra's question, all the servants start looking at each other.

Rudra grabs a servant by his collar and says angrily, "Why are you looking at each other, answer what I asked, where is Shreya, my wife?"

Seeing Rudra's anger, a maid comes forward in a panic and says fearfully - "Sir, Bahurani was thirsty, she asked me for water, that's why I had to open the door, I went to get water."

Hearing this, Rudra angrily says, "How dare you open the door? Get out of the mansion right now. You will not work in this mansion from now onwards. Get ready to face your punishment."

On hearing this the maid cries holding Rudra's feet and says- "Please forgive me sir, I made a mistake."

Rudra calls the guards. The guards come and take the maid away from there.

Rudra was not affected by her crying. He angrily calls the watchman. Hearing Rudra's voice, both the watchmen come running inside.

Rudra angrily says to them, "Were you both standing at the gate or not?"

Watchman-"Sir, we were at the gate only."

Rudra, after listening to him, grits his teeth and says, "If you both were at the gate, then how did my wife run away from here?"

Both the watchmen bow their heads after hearing Rudra's question. Rudra calls the guards again. The guards quickly arrive there.

Rudra tells them- "Take these two and whip them a hundred times and tell the rest of the guards to spread out in all directions, I want my wife in front of my eyes."

Hearing this, the guards let the watchman go from there. The watchman is left pleading.

Rudra sits on the sofa in anger and says, "Once you meet me, then see how I keep you captive. You have made a big mistake Shreya by running away from here."

Shreya had reached the bus stand. She covered her face with a dupatta. She had also changed her clothes and removed the mangalsutra from her neck and wiped off her sindoor. Shreya buys a bus ticket and sits on the last seat. She was very scared. The bus starts moving after a while. Shreya feels a little relieved seeing this.

Rudra's guards were searching for Shreya everywhere. Railway station, airport, everywhere.

10 minutes later

It had been 10 minutes since the bus had left. Shreya was looking outside and thinking what had happened to her life in a day. She had gone to save her best friend from a forced marriage and got trapped in it. All this was going on in her mind when suddenly the bus stops. The people sitting in the bus start creating a ruckus due to the sudden stoppage of the bus.

A man shouts and says, "Hey, why did you stop the bus?"

Second man- "Have you not filled petrol?"

Shreya also starts looking ahead to see why the bus stopped suddenly. The conductor goes ahead to talk to the driver, just then the sound of some footsteps is heard. They come inside the bus and start looking at all the people, they were all Rudra's guards and everyone had a gun in their hand.

All the people sitting in the bus get very scared after seeing Rudra's guard and become very quiet. The bus which was in a commotion a while ago, has now become so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling can be heard. Shreya also gets very scared after seeing Rudra's guard, then Rudra enters the bus. He was wearing a Shree Peace suit and looked very dangerous, his anger was clearly visible in his eyes. He starts staring angrily at Shreya who is sitting on the last seat of the bus.
