Aliya ki zindagi ab pehle jaisi nahi rahi thi 🥺
Har cheez badal chuki thi—uska yaqeen, uski neend, aur uska sukoon sab kuch kisi ne cheen liya tha 💔
K ki baat ab uske zehan mein ghoom rahi thi:
"Ya sach ke saath chalna… ya zindagi se haath dho lena." 🌙
Aliya ne faisla kar liya tha ke woh peeche nahi hatay gi.
Agli subah 🌤️
Istanbul ki galiyan usual lag rahi thi… lekin Aliya ke liye sab kuch suspicious tha 👣
Woh apne hotel se nikal kar seedha purani university library ki taraf ja rahi thi 📚
Uske haath mein woh purani photo thi… jismein K aur uske baba ek saath thay 📷
Woh baar baar usay dekh rahi thi 💭
"Yeh sach hai ya ek aur jhoot?" 🥺
Library ke paas pohanch kar usne dekha ke darwaza thoda sa khula hua tha 🚪
Aaj yahan pehle jaisi khamoshi nahi thi… kuch ajeeb si hawa chal rahi thi 🌬️
Aliya dheere se andar gayi 👣
"Hello…?" usne awaz di.
Kahin se koi jawab nahi aaya.
Woh aage badhi… shelves ke darmiyan se guzarti hui 📚
Aur achanak… darwaza peeche se band ho gaya! 🔒
Aliya foran palti 😨
"Kaun hai?!" usne gusse aur darr mein kaha.
Lekin jawab mein sirf ek echo aayi… 🤫
Aur phir… lights off ho gayi 💡🌑
Complete darkness.
Aliya ka dil zor se dhadak raha tha 💓
Usay sirf apni saans sunai de rahi thi…
"Yeh koi game nahi hai…" usne dheere se kaha 🥺
Aur tabhi…
ek torch light on hui 🔦
Samne K khara tha 🖤
"Tum yahan kyun aayi ho?" usne serious voice mein poocha.
Aliya ne gusse se kaha:
"Sach sun'ne!"
K ne usay dekha… phir dheere se bola:
"Tum ab us stage par ho jahan sach tumhein tod bhi sakta hai." 💔
Aliya ne photo uski taraf phenk di 📷
"Yeh kya hai?! Tum mere baba ke saath kyun ho?"
K ne photo uthayi… aur kuch seconds chup raha 😶
Phir bola:
"Yeh purani team thi… hum log 'Shadow Line' project par kaam karte thay." ⚠️
Aliya confuse ho gayi 😵
"Shadow Line?"
K ne explain kiya:
"Ek aisa project jo powerful logon ke illegal networks expose karta tha… tumhare baba is project ke leader thay." 🌙
Aliya ka dil tez dhadak raha tha 💓
"Phir unki maut…?"
K ne uski aankhon mein dekha:
"Accident nahi tha… unhein khatam kiya gaya tha." 💔
Aliya ki aankhon mein aansu aa gaye 🥺
"Kaun…?"
K ne dheere se kaha:
"Woh log jo ab bhi zinda hain… aur jo ab tumhein bhi dhoond rahe hain." ⚠️
Achaanak library ke bahar se ek zor ka crash sunai diya 💥
Glass tootne ki awaz!
K foran alert ho gaya 😨
"Woh aa gaye…"
Aliya ne ghabra kar poocha:
"Kaun?!"
K ne uska haath pakra 🤝
"Ab sawal band… bhagna shuru."
Aur dono library ke back exit ki taraf bhaagne lage 👣💨
Bahar raat ka andhera tha 🌙
Aur door kuch black cars khari thi 🚗🖤
Aliya ka dil toot raha tha darr se 💓
"Yeh log kaun hain?!"
K ne jawab diya:
"Woh jo sach ko kabhi zinda nahi rehne dete…" 💔
Achaanak ek gunshot ki awaz aayi 🔫
K ne Aliya ko neeche gira diya 😨
Bullet unke paas se guzar gayi!
Aliya ki saans ruk gayi 🥶
"Hum mar jayenge!"
K ne uski aankhon mein dekha:
"Jab tak main hoon… tumhein kuch nahi hoga." 🖤
Aur woh dono andheron mein bhaag gaye 🌙💨
Peeche se sirf awazein aur footsteps aa rahe thay…
Aur phir Aliya ne peeche dekha…
ek masked shakhs unka peecha kar raha tha 😨🖤
