Sia was stunned when she felt the familiar tingling sensation. What was R doing here?
She grabbed his hand and dragged him away from the prying eyes of the onlookers. She started running, forcing him to run alongside.
R swept her off her feet while on the go, and they were at her cottage in a matter of seconds.
*What do you think you were doing, R? Have you forgotten that you are supposed to keep your identity a secret?*Sia reprimanded him the moment they reached her bedroom.
Sia paced up and down in her bedroom. She had bolted out of Myra’s house. She was sure that R could never kidnap Tina but could she be sure about the other Viridians?She had to find out the truth. She turned her wardrobe inside out in search of her jacket. She heaved a sigh of relief when she found the bottle of little pills. She had sneaked the bottle out of R’s jacket while he was carrying him. Popping half a pill into her mouth, she kept the bottle back into the pocket. She rushed out of her house wearing the jacket on the way. If Tina was abd
Sia was sitting on the couch with a forlorn expression. It was as if her soul had been sucked out from her. Her hands lay limp on her lap, her face expressionless, and her eyes had lost all their shine. She narrated everything from the beginning in a mechanical voice. At this point, she didn’t care if all the people in the world were annihilated. “Sia! How could you do this? We have always been there for you, and you hid such an essential piece of information from me. If you had told me about the Viridians beforehand, Tina would have been kidnapped.” Wrick said with a frustrated expression.
All through the night, Sia was engrossed in her Uncle’s Diary. A storm of emotions brewed in her as she read about her parents, their dreams, their sacrifices.She never spent much time with her parents, but this diary gave her an insight into what her parents desired. Tears streamed down her cheeks freely as she read about them. Her heart was filled with an intense longing for them. The memories of the little time she spent with them filled her mind. She sobbed, sniffled, and cried her heart out as if trying to wash away the years of despair, the years
Sia heaved a sigh of relief when R moved ahead without even throwing a glance at the rock. The pill had worked. But, she felt like her heart was being crushed between massive boulders. Today, she was going to kill him with her own hands. With that, her soul would be sucked out of her too. She was going to choose the path of thorny nettles, blazing cinders, an eternity of suffering. When she saw the next group of Viridains, she got out from behind the rocks and bumped into them. She didn’t want to delay it any longer. It would weaken her resolve.
Sia felt someone push her, and before she knew it, she was falling down the cliff. She felt a ringing sensation in her ears as the bomb detonated. R’s terrified expression and his eyes full of concern were engraved on her mind forever. “Ahhh!!!” A scream erupted from her throat as she felt her head hit the ground. “Sia…Sia….Are you all right? Please wake up, Sia.&rdqu
TWO WEEKS LATERON THE MAINLANDSia stood outside what she assumed to be a door. However, it was so well camouflaged that she found it difficult to tell it apart from the wall.Her heart beat as if it would just pop out of her chest. She could feel sweat trickling down her forehead.The irregular beating of her heart resonated in her ears. She hadn’t felt like this even when her life was at stake, but this time t
“You can take off the chip now. So, it’s true then. You have no memories after you hid in the boat.” Yorick said, looking at Sia earnestly.Sia had to struggle to maintain a somber expression. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard. The pill had actually worked. She felt like jumping up and down.Yorick heard only those thoughts that Sia had projected towards him. She knew it worked on Viridians but still…she had never tried it on human beings.
Sia stood there, staring at the empty room. Her mind went blank. Even the interrogation room was lavishly furnished in comparison.Out of nowhere, a voice boomed, “You have a visitor, Miss Sia. Do you want to allow her in?”“Who is it ?” I asked reflexively.The wall lit up with an image. she saw a cute girl dressed vibrantly. Then she heard a melodious voice, “I am Zora, madam. Mr. Yorick has sent me. He forgot to
Ron managed to convince the Council that the best place to set up a secret inventory and development wing was the Sentinel island. Sia handed over the Zen Enterprises to Jay and moved back to the island with Ron. They lived together with Wrick and Myra. During the day they would work like the normal residents but at night they visited the underground tunnel created by the Viridian which was now their research station. Viperous cliff remained Sia’s favorite spot from where she watched the sunsets with Ron.
“Do we really need to do this, Sia…” Ron said in a disgruntled tone. “Umm…hmmm… we owe this to our friends. Don’t forget they played an important role in bringing us together.” Sia lectured adjusting Ron’s tie. “Okay… fine… let us get over with this stupid reception. But, after that, I am going to keep you trapped in my arms forever. Sia blushed at the implied meaning. She turned to look into the mirror to avoid his gaze. Today she was
When Ron’s eyes fluttered open he was delighted to see Sia sitting beside him. She was staring at the space in front of her, lost in thoughts. A smile crept his lips as he recalled the time she was pointing the gun at him. She looked hot as hell and he had a hard time focusing. He was glad that she hadn’t arrived before he trapped the Viridian, else he would have found it difficult to capture him.Sensing Ron’s glare on her, Sia turned to him. She felt a jolt of electricity flow between them wh
Sia, Mr. Ben, and Jay were seated in the display room of the healthcare center. Their faces lit up when they saw Dr. Burming walking towards him. The gloating expression on his face indicated that he had been successful. “Mr. Ben, Sia, Jay…” He greeted them before taking a seat facing the three of them. Then he sat there staring into the space in front of him. When he didn’t speak anything for a long time, Mr. Ben prompted, “Did you figure out who the real Ron is doctor?” &l
“Don’t listen to him, Sia. The man that is standing in front of you is the Viridian. Think about this carefully. Would I have appreciated that you came to this lonely place alone?”Sia felt stunned by his statement. He had a point too. When Brown-eyes started walking towards Sia, she whipped out the laser gun from her pocket. “Don’t move or I will turn you to nothing in a moment,” Sia warned pointing the gun at him. Brown eyes raised his hands and said, “I don’t kn
Sia and Jay emerged in a large and deserted street. The sides of the street were piled with debris similar to what she had seen near the warehouse. It looked long abandoned; debris and ruins of old structures stretched on either sides as far as the eyes could see.Sia tapped on the PCID to track Ron's GPS. The red signal indicated that they were close to Ron’s CID. Sia walked in the direction of the signal cautiously. Jay followed behind keeping a watch on the surroundings.After searching for some time she found a CID on the ground. She looked around before picking it up warily.
Zen Digiola was decorated with ornate flowers. The Probots were busy moving around and touching up the decorations. After a lot of debate Ron and Sia had agreed to keep a grand wedding, just like it was shown in movies. The debate wasn’t whether they should have a physical wedding or a digital one. The controversy was regarding the setting of the wedding. Sia wanted to take her vows in an artificial garden setting while Ron wanted a castle setting. In the end, Ron decided to give in. He wanted to make the
Sia ran and grabbed Ron by the hand, forcing him to face her. She cupped his face in her hand and said, “These are tears of joy, Ron. I… have never felt so happy before…”“You are just trying to console me, aren’t you?” He asked, eyeing her suspiciously. “No, Ron… what you tried to do was outstanding… My heart is so full of joy that there is no place to hold it, so they are flowing down my cheeks as tears…” Sia said, giving him one of her dazzling smiles.
Two days later…Sia squealed in protest as Ron grabbed her from behind. The next moment darkness greeted her as something was placed on her eyes. “I have a surprise for you…” Ron whispered into her ears as he blindfolded her. “But… why are you covering my eyes? How will I see?” Sia whined.“Don’t worry… I will take off your blin
