14. SAVIOUR
YOU NEVER EXPECT
-"You're Zoya ma'am right?"
-"Yes. But who are you?"
-"I'm Robert. Faisal sir told me to pick you today."
-"Oh."
I was just going to sit in car when something popped in my mind. Faisal never sends anyone else except Zack and when he was on leave he himself dropped me so why today he sent this man. First I'll call Faisal or Zack. I closed the door of car and move aside.
-"Robert actually I had forgot my book in college I just go and take it back." I lied.
I turned to leave but he held my hand.
-"Acting smart haa."
-"What do you mean? Leave my hand."
-"Why so that you can ran away. Come sit inside."
He opened the door again and pulled me to sit inside. I'm sure he is not sent by Faisal. I pushed him with all my might, he felled down and I ran away. He started running after me and four more men came running behind him.
-"It's her. Catch her." One of them shouted.
I kept running. I turned to look at those men and saw guns in their hands. Oh God! What should I do now? I noticed that I have came running in an unknown place there is not even a single person here. There were drums all around having black oil. And where the hell is Zack? Everytime I go out he keeps following me like my shadow and today when he should be with me there's not even a single trace of him. I should call him or Faisal. My legs are giving up. I take out my phone from my top pocket and I had just dialled Faisal's number when someone hold my hand from behind and turned me forcibly. I fell down. He's the same man who told himself as Robert. He was holding my phone and looking into it. Just then all other four men came and stand behind him. They all are breathing heavily some are also clutching their knees trying to catch their breath. One of them said
-"This girl runs very fast."
Oh I know Mr. I am a fast runner. Just then that Robert throw my phone and it broked into pieces. He came and pushed me to stand up tightly holding my hairs. I shouted in pain trying to remove his hands from my hairs.
-"Trying to call your husband to come and save you?"
-"Who are you? What you want?"
-"You." He smirked
-"Please leave me."
He started laughing I took advantage of it I twisted his hand and take gun from his hands pointing it to his head. Other four men point their gun towards me.
-"Don't. If anyone come forward then I'll shoot him." They give me as-if-you-can-do-this look. So they don't believe me. I fired the bullet near their feet. It took so much effort to fire it as I have never touched a gun in my entire life. They flinched and move back putting down their gun. Now it's my time to smirk. I have taken self defence classes I was not lying to Faisal about it.
-"Wow! Very well done. I'm impressed."
A man came from behind these four creeps followed by four men. He is wearing a black tuxedo just like Faisal with coolers but he's looking older. He is definitely very good looking.
-"Five men behind a single girl. It's not fair."
-"Yo.... Yo.u are Lu.... Lucifer?" Robert stammered and his expressions changed into a terrific one.
-"Boys!" Just as this man in black spoke other four men who came with him pointed their gun on these four creeps and that men in Black came and hold Robert. He punched him so hard that he fell down. Robert started begging
-"Lucifer please..... please let me go. Please."
-"You should have thought about it before trying to hurt her."
-"Please let me go. Someone paid me for it. Please leave me."
-"Take care of these rascals."
-"As you wish master."
His men take away Robert and his fellows then Lucifer turned to me.
-"Are you alright?"
-"Yes. But who are you and why you helped me?"
-"I'm Lucifer Montano." He forwarded his hand but I hesitated to shake hand with him. I don't know him and then he came with well built men that too with guns. What's happening today? Why I'm just meeting with dangerous and gun carrying people.
-"I'm Lucifer Montano, Faisal's friend."
-"And why should I believe you?"
-"And why you should not believe me?"
-"Zoya ma'am! Ma'am!" Zack shouted and came running to me. His head is bandaged
"Ma'am are you fine?"
-"Yeah I'm fine. But what happened to you?"
-"That men hitted me. But thanks to Lucifer sir, his men saved me and you also."
-"You know him?"
-"Yes ma'am he's Faisal sir's friend." Then I look at men in Black aka Lucifer Montano
-"So now you believe me?"
I nodded. "Now let's go before Faisal himself comes to find you."
-"How you......." Men in Black didn't let me complete
-"Zoya. First come and sit in car then you can ask me anything it's not safe here, okay?"
-"Fine." Then he opened the back door of his car it's a black BMW. Wow! these friends are obsessed with black. Faisal also have 6 black cars in his garage can you believe it? Moreover all the cars of his guards are also black.
I sit on back seat he also sit beside me, Zack sit on passenger seat and another man is driving the car. He is wearing half sleeve black t-shirt his left hand is fully covered with tattoos, he is looking like he spent all his life in gym working out.
But, Faisal looks more handsome and strong than these people.
Zoya don't forget Rehan Bhai is also a bodybuilder.
I know but my Faisal is the best.
Ohh your Faisal!
No it's not like that.
Oh really?
Yeah.
My self argument was interrupted by Zack.
-"Ma'am are you hurt?"
-"No Zack don't worry I'm fine."
-"Zack you should have saw that scene when Zoya was holding gun pointing it to that man's head."
-"Really sir?"
-"Yes."
-"Don't regret I've taken a picture of that." The tattoo man shows a picture in his mobile of me pointing gun on Roberts head.
-"Wow ma'am you know how much excited will Rehan Sir get after looking this."
-"Zack please don't tell about this attack to Bhai and specially not to Faisal."
-"Fine ma'am."
-"And Mr. Lucifer and......"
-"Diego." Tattoo man told his name.
-"You both please don't tell this to Faisal."
-"Zoya it's not a small thing some people tried to attack on you Faisal should know this." Mr. Lucifer said.
-"And then he will say 'Zoya you can't go to college or out of this penthouse and will be homeschooled like a child.' Will this be fine?"
-"Okay I'll not tell him but if he get to know about it somehow then he'll be very angry. But I'll manage him. Fine then."
-"Thank you. And Zack what if he'll ask about your injury?"
-"I'll say that I got slipped and my head hitted on stone."
-"And what if he ask me why I had came home with Mr. Lucifer then?"
-"Zoya! Don't worry I'll take care you're overthinking. Just chill. And don't call me Mr. Lucifer."
-"So what should I call you?"
-"What you calls Rehan?"
-"Bhai."
-"And he allowed you?"
-"Yes. What do you mean by allowed me?"
-"Because no one except her.......
-"Lucifer Sir how about Fero? Faisal sir and Rehan sir calls you that right?" Zack said not letting Mr. Lucifer speak.
-"Oh.... Yeah. You can call me Fero." He said looking at Zack. And Zack is signing him something through his eyes. I think there's something they are hiding.
-"Can I........." I was going to say something but interrupted by ringtone of Zack's phone he answered it looking at me.
-"Hello Faisal sir." ................ "Yes sir ma'am is with us.".........."We're coming." He ended the call.
-"What was he saying?"
-"Ma'am sir was asking about you. That it's almost time for you to be back in house as your classes had finished at 3:30 but you haven't reached yet."
-"Worried for wife. I see. Zoya he's very controlling right?"
-"It's not even a question. He is not only controlling he is arrogant, mannerless and wierd being also."
-"I know. I'm tolerating it since 12 years."
-"12 years? You know him for so long?"
-"Yeah. And Rehan is with him even before he was born."
-"But I remember Bhai said that he is the one and only best friend of Faisal."
-"It's a long story save it for next time."
-"Okay."
-"Sir we've reached."
Then we reached Faisal's penthouse Zack and Diego left as they have to take care of those men. Me and Savio get into elevator. Yeah I'll call him Savio it's short form of savior as he saved me from those men. I hope he will not mind me giving him a nickname. But Lucifer is also very good name. I'll call him both .
Just as the door of penthouse opened I met with a pair of furious blue eyes who are glaring at me. Just as I saw him my whole courage vanished, all the excuses I was thinking to tell him ran away from my mind.
Oh God! save me from this furious lion.
