The burning sky

chapter 9 (passion has no words)

"So! My boy speaks very little, but I know everything. Great ride today, very nice, thank you Rex."

Rai says sitting on a bench by the lake.

Their hair is flying in the wind. There is a wonderful light in the sky.

The time is twilight, this light is probably called the light seen by the bride. Everyone feels very wonderful at this time. Just as Rex feels now. Unearthly light is spreading on his face, it is impossible to look away. There's no smile on his face, nothing is vissible on his expressionless face, but for some unknown reason Rai can sense everything, even his unspoken words. Rex likes to spend time with her. Although he spoke less himself, he never stopped her chatter all the time Rather encouraged. He is quietly enjoying Rai's presence. His two eyes are repeatedly touching the girl, there is a strange magic in those lifeless eyes. As if trying to tie it.

"Who do you have at home?"

Rex suddenly asked. He is surprised by this strange change in himself in one day. It is not in his nature to ask questions, he never wanted to know anything about anyone. But he wants to know this girl completely. Last night he went through the complete bio data of this girl. He was surprised that the owner of a very successful tech company at work had come this far just for her bestfriend. The area is not less popular, the police are afraid to enter here. How did this fearless girl leave everything and ran here! Is she not afraid!

"I have no one but Surpankha. Parents died in a car accident when I was sixteen, then it was just me and her. Surpankha is not only my bestfriend but also my only family. "

Rai says looking at the lake. A black shadow appeared on Rex's face. How easily the girl told the truth of her life. How happy she is after all this. So why can't he! Why can't he smile! Why he do not want to live forget everything! Maybe his work will never let him forget everything.

"No one else?"

After a long time Rex asked again. Rai looks at his face with relief.

"I don't have a relationship with my relatives, I can't stand the false drama of love. No boyfriend, never had. "

She shakes her head. Rex looks at her,

"Why?"

He asked in a low voice.

"Because I don't like that. I like to fly in the open air. I don't have time for anyone. It's a crime to waste my energy on relationships and obsessions."

Rai said getting up from the bench and walking towards the lake. She doesn't notice that suddenly Rex has settled down. The light on his face has disappeared, the coldness of his eyes has returned. His hands clenched, veins bulging.

"Well, give it up. Tell me what shampoo you use! You have such beautiful soft hair."

Rai asked with no difficulty. Rex stood up and walked towards his bike without answering, Rai ran behind him.

"Hey, where are you going all of a sudden! What happened!"

She says surprised.

"It's getting late."

Rex sat on the bike saying in a hard voice. Seeing his coldness, Rai got up and sat behind him. The bike flies towards Suparna's house, this time Rex doesn't let Rai catch him, jerks her away. He is acting strangely cold. His body is strong. Rai is surprised at the sudden change in his behavior. What a boy!

When the bike stops in front of Suparna's house, Rai jumps out. Rex drove out without giving her a chance to speak. A shocked Rai shrugs her shoulders and heads home. It is not in her power to give too much oil to anyone.

But when Rex didn’t show up for the next forty-eight hours, Rai's head shakes. For these two days she went around with Suparna, bought various things related to her wedding. Suparna has restricted her freedom of movement. There is a restriction on her that she should not go out unaccompanied. Everyone is very worried about her.

In these two days Rai also talked with Neil's friend Joseph. A very cheerful cute boy, thirty-two years of age. He knows how to shoot a gun very well. He promises to teach Rai. But Rai noticed one thing, how they change little by little in the evening. Neel does not leave Suparna for anything, he has taken fifteen days off for marriage. Joseph has a sort of bond with Rai, tirelessly teaching her various magic, industrial information, the boy's knowledge of the stock market is enviable. In short, they have kept Rai's head so busy that she didn't have time to think about Rex.

But when Rishabh's shadow is not found even after two days, Rai goes to Barduek pub and searches. But no one can tell her anything. Rai notices one thing better that the bar's staff, from the barmaids to the server girls, cower in fear at the mere mention of Rex's name. What is the reason for so much fear does not enter Rai's head. Finally when no one can give any clue Rai asks Neel directly,

"Where is Rex's house?"

It is now almost seven in the evening, if tonight passes, three days will pass without seeing Rex. Rai can't delay any longer, she needs the news now.

Hearing her question while drinking tea, Neel growled loudly. Suparna's face turns white as paper.

"Why are you looking for him?"

Neel questioned himself Seeing Rai's very serious face, Suparna does not dare to say anything. She knows exactly when to leave her friend alone. Arguing with a hotheaded Rai about something is like digging your own grave. She has learned this much from being with her friend for so long.

"I don't like back-and-forth questions, Neil. Answer what I asked."

Rai said coldly. Neel looks at Suparna with a worried face.

"You don't understand how dangerous this is, Rai! You're looking for someone we wouldn't even dare to look for as a friend."

Out of the blue Rai leaned straight over his face. Maybe her infamous business personality is back.

"But I didn't want to know anything from you, I just asked for the address. Give it!"

She spit on Neel's face. Neil swallowed and raised his finger to point to the multi-story building almost opposite Suparna's house.

"The only apartment on the twenty-eighth floor, go when you go, don't talk later that I didn't warn you."

Neil says in a low voice, Rai storms out of the room without saying a word.

"Why didn't you stop her? Your bestfriend is about to jump into danger!"

Looking at Suparna, Neil says in a complaining tone Suparna gasps and looks away.

"When Rai sets her mind on something, it's not hard, it's practically impossible to turn her away. After a while, she doesn't take any dissuasion from anyone. I'll talk to her later."

She said slowly. The two look out of the window. Rai's frame is walking fast and goes into the basement of this building.
