AJ"s flat was very lively. He lives in a studio apartment. AJ was preparing dinner and was glaring at Zaw, Aseem, Angela and Mian who are sitting and playing FIFA in PS4"Guys, how come n.o.body is helping me whenever it"s my turn !! For rest all other"s shift, everyone will voluntarily rush to help...Why? why this partiality ?"
"Because only you have PS4 at home", Angela replied without batting her eye from the screen.
AJ"s face turned sour and sighed helplessly. Only if Icey was here...how good it will be !! My angel..She would have helped me definitely...
He looked at the clock and noticed that its 8:15 PM. Icey might be coming at 9PM. May be it would be better if I call her now and ask to come early. He picked his phone and called Ziyi
*******************
Icey tried hard to notice the tattoo on his hand, but the guy swiftly walked away. After a couple of minutes, her mobile started ringing continuously. She missed the first two rings and during the third ring, regained her consciousness a little, and pressed the blue-tooth b.u.t.ton to answer.
"Icey darling !! Do you want to finish the entire textbook today itself or what ?", AJ spoke excitedly. He knows Ziyi"s ability to study well. Once she sits in library, it"s hard to make her deviate..She is a super crazy bookworm. So, occasionally he teases her a lot.
"AJ", a feeble voice was heard from the other end.
AJ"s heart panicked for a second and he instantly shouted, "Icey are you alright ??". His voice was so loud that everyone playing the game stopped instantly and turned in his direction.
There was no response from the other end.
"Icey..."
"Icey...!!"
From AJ"s voice, Zaw could easily figure out that Icey wasn"t responding and without any delay, he turned on his mobile tracker.Core ACE members could track others easily and their GPS will be always on,unless during some operations. Luckily the GPS showed that She was close by and near the downward alley of AJ"s house route. Instantly, he grabbed Aseem"s car keys and pulled AJ by holding his collar.
"We both will pick Icey and be back soon"
"What happened to Icey ? We will also come", Angela said with tears in her eyes.
"Nothing happened Angie..Turn off the tap first. Aseem, You stay here with them" He looked at Aseem and signaled him with his eyes.
Aseem understood the matter and quickly responded "I will.. Be careful!!". Zaw and AJ rushed out towards the parking and Zaw started the engine.
"Do you know where she is, Zaw ?"
"I checked in tracker. Near the downward valley"
"Any response from her AJ ??"
"No, but the call is still on. She didn"t disconnect !!"
In less than 5 minutes, both of them reached downward valley. Zaw parked the car towards the corner and rushed in a small alley...After walking for 400 metres, he could see Ziyi, lying semiconsciously..
"F*ck !!", AJ freaked out.
Zaw looked at her state and noticed that it"s not serious.
"Icey.. Icey... Can you see me ?"
Ziyi tried to answer but unfortunately sound didn"t come out. Seeing her state, Zaw said, "Okay..Okay..Relax !! Just nod your head if you can hear me"
Ziyi nodded her head slowly.
"Is it your relapse again ?", Zaw questioned carefully.
"Nod"
Zaw"s heart stopped for a second. With panic in his eyes, he worriedly asked, "Did you take medicine?"
"Nod"
"How long has it been ?"
Ziyi looked at him blankly. Even Zaw was staring at her for the reply. AJ hit his head with the palm and said, "Bro !! She couldn"t talk...You gave her fill in the blank in this state... Give her multiple choice"
Zaw realized his mistake and immediately corrected, "Sorry..Sorry !!"
"Is it an hour ?"
Ziyi nodded horizontally..
"2 hours ?"
Ziyi nodded horizontally..
"30 minutes ??"
Ziyi finally nodded her head...
Since it"s only 30 minutes, it would take at least another 3 hours for her to regain to her original state. Zaw lifted Ziyi in his arms and carried her back to their car park.He gently placed her in the back seat and leaned Ziyi"s head on his shoulder. AJ took the driving seat and started the engine. He was about to go towards his flat, but Zaw stopped him.
In her current state, they can"t take her back to AJ"s flat. Angela and Mian are already there in the flat.If they see Ziyi like this, it"s hard to control both the cry babies and Angela would definitely call Icey"s parents, which is very risky..
"Let"s take her to my flat !!", Zaw said after a careful thought. AJ nodded his head and the car drove towards Zaw"s home.
After the car drove off, the man who rescued Ziyi earlier came out of the bushes and called to some number in country M.
"Director Lin, Miss Ziyi was picked up by her friends. She seems to be in semi-conscious state. Nothing to worry !!"
"Alright..Keep following the lady !! Make sure you guys monitor her well ", a voice commanded from the other end.
"Yes Director Lin!! Please Don"t worry", the man replied in a humble tone and the call was disconnected.
In Country M, on the top floor of a 99 storeyed building, a handsome man was sitting on a comfortable office chair and typing something on the keypad. He was in late twenties and the glow radiating from his body can make any girl fall for him. Being about 187 cm tall and dressed in a simple white shirt and black pant, his body emitted a cold and aloof aura. His coat was wrapped at the back of his chair and his sharp eyes were glued onto the monitor.
knock !! knock!!
"Yes, Come in ", the man responded in a lazy tone.
A young man in his early thirties walked inside and said, "Boss..!! Miss Ziyi was safely picked up by her friends."
The aloof man suddenly stopped typing and looked at his PA. Slowly he asked, "How"s she ?"
"She is still unconscious.This time, her relapse looks severe it seems !!", PA Lin said worriedly.
The man nodded his head and waved his hand, signalling the PA to leave. PA Lin left silently.
The man pressed his temples lightly with the two fingers and minimized all the screens, he is currently operating.
Looking at the wallpaper, his eyes became soft and tender. The wallpaper in his laptop showed a picture of a young woman about 17-18 years age in a simple pink gown with her long hair left freely open. She had a very little makeup and her seblue eyes looked alluring, as if they hold the happiness of this entire world...!!
His hand subconsciously touched the screen and his fingers started trembling..!!. He felt extreme melancholy and his lips shivered calling her name..!!
" ZIYI.....!!"
Tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes ...
