Writer's pov

It was a day of Paranoia, for Bela... It was as if something real unexpectated was going to happen and probably there was no one out there to help the situation!

She tried to keep her mind calm and alert but at the same time she was feeling her stomach churning....the worst part was that it was giving her nervous cramps...and no way it was a good sign.

A feeling of eerie within her suggested an uneasy or fearful consciousness, that mysterious and malign powers are at work around her.

She could hope and pray that everything goes well today as it was such an important day for Drishti and Trehan Family.

That's what she did, she took out some time to pray for her family.

And this was one of those rare times, when she really needed that someone special to tell her that they were there with her but alas she had nobody and thus for reasons unknown to her, she missed Nakul, her blackmailer, her husband but the irony was that the later was also not present beside her to speak sweet nothings to her.

It was not like Bela had nothing to do, She kept herself as busy as she could. Sometimes, with Suhani and sometimes in pampering Drishti and sometimes with the staffs for the evening events. But now she was literally out of work and it was this time, within the walls of her bedroom that her heart was not at peace.

She was anxious and scared.!

Sighing, she decided to get ready for the evening. Wearing a silk saree with light traditional jewels, she was ready to face the world, or atleast she knew how to fake it till you make it!

Walking through the hall, she asked the staff if everything was under control. She was speaking to the event manager, when, she saw a group who were dressed in a particular way, their faces were almost covered due to the safety hats and also the surgical masks made it impossible to recognise them. She frowned at the troop and asked the manager -
Who are these people Mr. Gupta?
I have not seen this group before!

Mr. Gupta gulped and said - Er...Mrs.Trehan, sorry for the inconvenience but they are the members of the light and sound team.
The previous group had some of their members down with covid, so I had to hire this new group.
I.. I am sorry ma'am but it was not my fault, also I was out of option during these last minutes.
B... But you can trust these guys!
They are good in their work.
