Main toot chuka tha.
Par mere ek purane dost Arjun ne kaha —
"Bro tu jiske peeche pagal hai, uske baare me kuch jaanna chahta hai?"
Maine haan kaha.
Usne ek pen-drive pakdaayi —
"Bas dekh. Aur fir decide karna kya chahta hai."
Main ghar aaya. Plug kiya.
Folder ka naam tha:
"Case #N-07"
Videos, newspaper clippings, voice notes.
Sab ek naam gunguna rahe the — Nikita Sharma alias Nikki.
Ek video me uska ex dikh raha tha.
Vohi jiska photo usne mujhe dikhaya tha.
Video me vo banda chilla raha tha:
"Nikki! Tu pyaar ke naam pe mental game khelti hai!
Log tujhe chaahte hain aur tu unhe barbaad karti hai!"
Uske baad us video me sirf silence tha.
Fir ek police report —
"Subject found dead. Overdose suspected. Last known person: Nikita Sharma."
Ek aur voice note:
"Main usse chod nahi sakti thi, isliye usne khud ko hi khatam kar diya."
Aur ek chilling line Nikki ki awaaz me:
"Main logon ko nahi todti... main bas unka asli chehra unke samne laati hoon."
