Chapter 102 - An Invisible War

Kash drove quietly. He just asked Chi Chi not to cry in front of the kids. She immediately wiped her tears and masked her face with cheerful smile.

The kids chatted happily with both the elders and with each other.

In half an hour he pulled in front of Mr. Sharma's house. Dragons bodyguards followed in a separate car.

Ding dong

" That's Kash and Chi Chi", said Rash to her father. She hurriedly opened the door.

" Greetings Rashmi", Dillu touched her feet. " Oh yeah Sammy's mom cried".

He dropped the bomb and left thought Kash.

" Chi Chi", said Rash.

Chanchal hugged her.

" Sam go with Dillu", said Kash.

The boy rushed off.

" I think you need to eat something first", said Rash.

" S something light", said Chanchal.

" Sure Angel. Tuna Sushi and Avocado salad".

Chanchal nodded.

After dinner Rash cleaned the plates.

" The boys had chicken pasta and are now exploring the space room", said Rash. " Papa is with them".

" Chi Chi spill the beans", said Kash.

" I.I.slept with Shaun", she said weakly then hid her head in her hands

" I am so pathetic", she said

Then the crying started all over again.

Meanwhile

" You are to accompany my girls to the hospital tomorrow ", said Jeet to Shaun.

" Sure Dragon ", he replied with a hard face.

" Raziya", Zeeshan showed him the photograph

" Looks like a low grade w*nch", said Jeet.

" Also her", he showed another photograph. A bespectacled girl stared back.

" This girl worked errands on a film set", he said. " Rash wants to have a closer look. Here are the details she submitted with Jumman and film agency. Both vastly different. No overlaps".

" She did her homework", said Dragon.

" So she still remains invisible ", said Guru.

" As in our war is an invisible one too", said Jeet.

" Reena Kulkarni visits paradise with boy toys", said Zeeshan.

" Ohh look we have another bedroom spy", said Jeet.

" I have more", smirked Zeeshan.

" And I don't f*cking have the whole day Qureshi", said Jeet.

" Look here", he said. He showed them a video.

" That's Mrs Kulkarni", said Shaun.

" Look again", smirked Zeeshan.

" Halt this frame", suddenly Dragon said.

A man's face was clearly visible.

" Kale", he said to Zeeshan.

" Bang on. Coincidence. Then look at this. Another day another assailant. And different club", he said.

" She played smart", said Shaun. She talked to them through proxy is it"?

" We have no proof but her presence near each one of them at different time. Also chief this never showed up in her mobile location ", he said.

" She clearly has a phone here. She is talking on it", noted Guru.

" A burner", he said. " She threw the sim as she went out", he said.

" You got them", asked Jeet.

" None. Garbage cleared out. Sorry", he said.

" Hmm good one Qureshi. Top priority in Viru's party", he said.

" Sure", said Guru.

A knock came on the study.

" Get in", spoke Dragon.

" Dragon Banwari told he hooked up with the w*tch a couple of times at his place. He doesn't know where she lives", said Manya.

" Convenient", said Dragon.

" Let me in there at his place with Banwari. You come too", said Shaun.

" Josef", asked Dragon.

" Long shot but if we get something of her then we can go for a dna sample".

Dragon thought for a second.

" Long shot indeed but a clever one. Signal green", he said to Manya.

The soldier saluted and left.

" I also have another request", said Shaun.

" Shoot".

" You will ask them both to keep a feet's distance from her. Anything she speaks I will be a privy party to it", he said.

" Any reason for this precaution", asked Sumeet.

" Grace is a manipulative b*tch. I don't want her to send them on a life threatening errand out of spite", said Shaun.

" I second that", said Zeeshan. " She was clearly the murderer but she tried to make it look like Malti's fault; the one whom she killed."

" Could Raziya be another pawn or the mastermind", asked Guru.

" For now she just is a clue Walia. In the invisible war we are fighting", he said.

" Off to Banwari's place now Josef and for God's sake don't let Rash find out", he ordered.

Shaun saluted and left.

" Qureshi I have an idea. Let's have a camera footage of the day before and after of the attack too on me and Chanchal. Get it and send it to Rash. See if she finds out anything ", he said.

" On that", he said and left.

" Walia back to CM office. We both are meeting Reena Kulkarni today. I asked her to meet. Note her manners. And then we can coordinate ".

" Sure chief", he said.

Jeet and Guru left.

Meanwhile

" Look babes it's nothing wrong. He didn't force you . Did he", asked Rash.

" No Rash. I literally..you know ", she said. " He is Sumeet's friend ".

" But your husband was the one who invited him", said Rash

" No Rash you don't get it. He will hurt Shaun. I know he will", she said crying.

" Shaun is tough. Chill", said Rash.

" I am in this continuous state of an invisible war with myself Rash. I don't know what to do", she said.

" You draw", said Kash. " Do this draw something for Dr. Josef".

" But", she said.

" Good idea", said Rash.

" Here are the CD's you asked.

" Ohhh b*tches I have a breaking news", he said. " I forgot amidst all this drama".

" Tell us", said Rash.

" This b*tch Anita or Raziya whatever made a replica of a famous runway dress", he said.

" That's peacock feathers of Mayuri and Shona", said Chanchal immediately recognising the designer and the work.

" This is the original one", he said. " Now look at this she wore", he said.

The girl walked with a bald man in a party wearing the same dress.

" On first instance you go in shock but then you take a closer look", he said.

" The signature logo is made wrong", said Rash.

" Colour is a bit different too", said Chi Chi

" And b*tches guess what Papa got ; the copycat dress", he said.

He immediately took it out of a bag.

" I love you", said Rash." Is there anything more"?

Chi Chi was keenly looking at the dress. They let her. She was very observant they knew.

" I don't have proof but word of mouth dhe did it as minor business and sold replicas of these high end dresses at low cost", said Kash.

" Let us try to find a list of customers who bought it", said Rash.

" HEY LOOK AT THIS", EXCLAIMED Chanchal.

" What's it", asked Rash.

" Something is there in the pocket ", she said.

" What", asked Kash.

" A photograph..Heavens"!

" Chi Chi", said Rash.

She showed him.

It was Kunal's photograph crossed with a red marker..

" This..", said Rash looking at it..

" So someone put a hit on Kunal too", said Rash. " And that someone..."

She clicked a few buttons on her laptop.

" Is the same someone who put a hit on you Chi Chi", she showed the photograph she got from the abandoned shop.

" Who is this Anita or Raziya ", asked Kash.

" Not some small fish who is eluding the biggest predator in the ocean ", said Rash

" Rash sometimes an ant brings down and elephant. You just should know where to strike..", said Chi Chi. " For days she fought a war..an invisible war where she was the one invisible ".

" She", asked Kash.

Chi Chi raised Kunal's photograph.

" Look at it", she said. " This is no marker. It's a nailpaint. The handstiched purse to hide diamonds, replicas of designer dresses to slip in, nailpaint to mark her victims..A woman guys".

" A poisonous ivy. Time to bring her out. Proud of you Diva proud of you Chi Chi. We did it guys", said Rash . " PREETI RAJVANSH the only invisible one I can think of..".
