"Home sometimes turns out to be a person, your haven, your source of peace, but that doesn't mean they don't provide you with headaches."

Harshad stared at the employee, looking at him with determination. "As we had discussed our goal. I have accumulated you all here, to discuss the first step towards our mission."

The employees were staring at him with hope and admiration. They could feel new energy radiating from Harshad. "We need to find information regarding Swara Ahuja's case." Harshad pointed at the file on his desk.

The conference room had a number of employees that shared a look with one another. "Years had passed since the incident. An employee working in our office was related to this girl. He had brought the news which was later claimed as fake but the girl had ended her life within the week the news was telecasted. Her parent had filed a complaint against our firm which was rejected. Our job is to find accurate information about the case and held back our reputation."

The girl among them raised a hand in question, and Harshad prompted her to continue. "I have a question, sir. How are we going to come up with information? Every proof would be erased by now. The case had taken place twelve years back."

"Our job is to wake the government, make them aware that there is something that needs justice." Harshad commanded, "we are going to read the details about the case and try to bring as much information as possible by next week. Am I clear?"

Everyone nodded in agreement, "we are going to see this case as providing justice to a girl whose life was taken from her at a small age." Harshad paused for a second keeping his emotion in check. "You all might leave." And soon he dismissed them all.

Rajeev was walking out of his office when the guard standing in the parking lot, rushed to him. "Sir, you have a parcel."

Rajeev stared at the package with suspiciousness. "Who gave it?" He searched for any information about the sender.

"He mentioned that he was your well-wisher." Rajeev frowned at the introduction, he dismissed the guard with a nod as he made his way toward his car.

As soon as he got into the car, he opened the package. And it contained a box filled with files, his frown deepened as he rushed to open the file. On the front page, it was highlighted with bold words.

"Swara Ahuja wasn't provided with justice."

He read the below words, the detail of the case was written down and at the end of the file a note was placed.

"I hope you will desire justice to be provided to your daughter."

-Your Well-Wisher.

"What the hell!" Rajeev growled in annoyance. He crumbled the paper and threw it out of the car. "Who is bringing the past out, again? Why someone is after my reputation?" He massaged his forehead in frustration. "Why can't someone allow me peace." His orbs landed on the picture of Swara.

Her eyes were smiling in happiness, and the flashes of her face return to his mind. The last time he had seen her was before she decided to take her life. The way he had shouted at her. Didn't provide her with an opportunity to justify her acts. He had announced that he won't ever stare at her face again. How she could behave so inappropriately? He was so proud of his kids. It was a crime to have sex before marriage.
