Chapter 8:

On the way to the last house:

In the car:

Abhijeet was driving the car with a small pout on his face. (someone's getting jealous.)

Daya was sitting beside him smiling at his jealousy.

Sachin, Kajal and Vivek were sitting behind them and Muskaan, Tarika, Tasha, and Drake squished in at the back.

Drake had mixed in with everyone quickly and everyone felt as if they had known him for years because he was very similar to Tarika.

Everyone was laughing and talking with each other. Abhijeet on the other hand concentrated on driving.

Daya looked at him and whispered to him so only he could hear.

"Jealous lag reh ho." Daya said smirking.

"Abbey chup kar!" replied Abhi angrily.

"Waise Abhijeet, Drake bohot accha larka hai na?"

Abhi angrily replied "Haan bohot accha hai main tou bas assai hoon."

Daya surprised "arrey Abhi tumhare aur Drake ke beech compare kaun kar rah hai? Main tou bas mazak kar rah tha."

Abhi smiled. "Main be tou mazak kar rah tha. Har waqt meri taang keechta rehta hai."

Daya smiled. "aha very smart."

They got to the house and parked outside and everyone gets out.

They go inside and ask the couple who lived there and get the same result as all of them.

They come back and sit in the car again.

This time Daya was driving and Muskaan was sitting beside him. Behind them Abhijeet, Tarika, and Drake were sitting and the rest crowed in the back.

Kajal suddenly broke the silence "Sir ab hum kya kare. I was sure ki we would find something here."

Abhi replied back "Don't worry Kajal I'm sure we'll find another way."

Daya suddenly spoke "Sure we will."

They went back to the temporary lab that Salunkhe was working at and where ACP, Rajat, and Freddy were now waiting.

Everyone got out and went inside.

ACP sir saw them and spoke "Abhijeet, Daya kuch pata chala?"

Abhijeet answered "Nahi sir kuch nahi pata chala."

ACP looked at them "ok koi baat nahi we'll find another way."

Suddenly Drake spoke for the first time "I'm sure we will sir."

ACP smiled when he saw Drake. "Drake, how are you?"

"I'm good sir, How are you?" He replied.

"I'm good, I'm once again sorry for your loss."

"It's ok sir." He looked down and Abhijeet put a consoling hand on Drake's shoulder.

Everyone looked at him surprised because they thought he wouldn't like him.

Drake looked at him and Abhijeet gave him a reassuring smile and Drake smiled back.

"Anyways Salunkhe tum ke rahe the ki Australia mein b yeh plants milte hai?" ACP said.

"Haan aisa kehtai hai" he replied.

"Tou Sachin Australia mein phone lago aur jiss area mein yeh plant milta hai wah poocho ki kissne yeh plant buy kiya hai yah nahi."

Sachin "Yes sir." He walked into a corner with Kajal and searched up contacts on his phone.

20 Minutes later everyone was calling people in Australia that had the plants.

"Ok Thanks so you have sold 2 plants? Alright bye." Tasha hung up and went back to the group.

Everyone finished calling whoever they had on their list.

"Sir total mein 8 nurseries thi jis ke pas yeh plant tha aur un mein se 4 of them sold their plants to someone else." Abhijeet said to ACP sir.

"Tou un sab ke numbers mil gay?" He asked.

"Haan sir un sab ke numbers mil gay hai but I'm suspecting that one of them is fake." Said Tarika.

"Aisa kyun lagta hai tumhe Tarika?" Asked Daya.

"Daya mujhe aisa lagta hai ki first of all this guy isn't a researcher or scientist like all these other people and second of all yeh number mujhe galat lagta hai. Yeh number yahan ka lagta hai aur yeh naam bhi Indian hai." She replied back.

"Haan Tarika you're right, but koi itna stupid tou nahi hoga ki yahan ka number who dai." Said Sachin.

"Sachin sahi kahan tum ne yeh kissiki chaal hai humhe wahan bulaana ki." Said ACP sir.

"Tou ab kya kare sir?" Asked Vivek.

"Get your English set and get ready to go to Australia." He said and walked away.

Everyone looked after him and then smiled at each other.

The Next Day 4:00 am:

Everyone was at the airport ready to take off.

Only a couple of people were going to Australia because of the international issue and Visa and Passports. They could only get a couple and that too for the main people. Tarika and Drake had no problem getting their Visa's in one day's time since they were already born abroad. ACP sir, Abhijeet, Daya got theirs pretty easily too since they were well known. Muskaan had also gotten hers pretty quick.

So now all these people were going and Sachin, Kajal, Tasha, Vivek, Rajat, and Freddy were going to stay in Shimla (Shimla Team) and the rest of the team was back in Mumbai trying to find clues there (Mumbai Team). (Sorry I didn't make Rajat and all the other people go because there would be too many people then and it wouldn't have worked out properly.)

The Shimla team dropped off the rest and then left from there.

"Ok sir hum chalet hai, Wahan jaake hume phone karna." Said Rajat.

"Theek hai Rajat wahan ponchte hum phone karengai." Said ACP sir.

"Ok Sir, bye." Rajat said.

Tarika and Muskaan hugged Kajal and Tasha and said bye.

Everyone bid each other goodbye. Rajat came over to Tarika and hugged her.

"Bye Tarika apna kyal rak na." He said.

"Bye Rajat. You take care of yourself too." She said. He smiled and they went inside to the security check-ins.

Tarika, Muskaan, Daya, Abhijeet, Drake, and ACP sir all went through the check-ins and then went to the boarding area.

They sat as they still had 3 hours because of the check in time.

Half an hour later of talking and joking around, Muskaan complained that she was thirsty.

Abhijeet got up and said he would get something.

"Tarika mere saath chalogi?" He asked.

Tarika nodded and got up. They both walked away.

The rest of them continued talking and laughing.

Abhirika:

"Tarika mein ek baat pooch sakta hoon tumse?" Abhijeet asked.

"Haan Abhijeet, permission kyun mang raho?" She replied raising an eyebrow.

He stopped and she also stopped.

She turned back and saw Abhijeet standing there. She moved back to him.

"Kya hua Abhijeet ruk kyun gai?" She asked him.

He looked in her eyes and spoke. "Tarika kya tum mujse aur iss rishtai se kush ho?"

Tarika looked at him shocked. "Abhijeet tum aisa kyun pooch rai ho?"

"First answer me Tarika. Kya tum mujse aur iss rishtai se kush ho yah nahi?"

Tarika stopped and thought for a while.

Tarika thinking "Kya mein isse sach baata doon yah nahi. It's a good chance for me to be able to stay away from him now. But wait I can't hurt him. Woh toot jayga. Per kya karoo. Maybe if I say no then he… No then he won't be able to concentrate on his work." She finally thought and decided to tell the truth.

"Abhijeet mein iss rishtai se…" Abhijeet looked at her with an eager and surprised expression.

"Kya Tarika?" He asked quickly.

She looked into his eyes and saw love and devotion.

"Mein iss rishtai se kush na…" She paused again.
