《If only I knew you (UNEDITED)》Chapter 53: Selfless

"Aliya, Aliya please open the door" Preeti pleaded as she continuously knocked on the bedroom door. "Preeti, leave her alone, she needs some time to herself" Farhan wrapped his arm around her shoulder, walking her towards us.
"It's 11am" Vicky stated while looking at his watch. My stomach fluttered at the thought of seeing her again. "We need to leave, maybe....just maybe she can help us with this as well" Farhan spoke. I got my car keys and was about to start my car until a hand stopped me. I turned around and frowned at Preeti. "What's wrong?" I asked her. She gave me a blank face as she pulled me back inside. "You are not going anywhere". I froze as she dropped the bomb on me.
I fisted my palms and removed her hand of my arm. "What do you mean I'm not going anywhere?, how could you even say this Preeti?, no one can stop me from seeing her" I gritted my teeth. I moved aside to walk away until she stopped me again. She turned her head and looked at Farhan. "Farhan, you go with Vicky and Sona, he-" she looked back at me with empty eyes. "is staying here".
I shook with anger, glaring at Preeti's face. "No, Farhan you stay here, let me go, you know why I want to go, don't do this Preeti" I stated in anger. "You listen to me Ezhil, I'm your elder sister, you are staying home with me, Farhan get the car ready" she looked back at Farhan.
Farhan gave me a glance and sighed before walking away with his car keys, Vicky and Sona following right behind him. I snatched my arm away from Preeti with harshness, her eyes flashing with hurt before vanishing. "Why Preeti?...WHY?" I yelled making her flinch. I tugged on my hair and fell onto the couch.

She sat beside me and placed her hand on my shoulder only for me to shrug my shoulder roughly. She sighed and stood up, walking away from me. I lifted my head, watching her form walk away before pushing myself onto my feet and storming out of the house.
No one can stop me from seeing her, not even God
Feeling nervous, I rubbed my palms on my knees, my leg bouncing up and down as we waited for her arrival. "Good Morning" a beautiful voice spoke making me snap my head up. She was here, standing there like a beautiful angel, looking so different from 10 years ago.
Confusion swirled in her eyes when she glanced at me before looking away with coldness making me look down in shame. We followed her into her office and sat opposite to her. I raised my head and gazed at her. Her long silky brown locks falling below her shoulders, her long eyelashes touching her cheeks, her skin so flawless and milky. I quickly looked down when her eyes locked with mine.
What the hell is wrong with me?
"I have contacted the police and they have agreed to help us out but I need you to describe how those men looked like. I have sent the officers to the place where the incident happened, so I have booked you an appointment with an artist who will draw out the men the way you describe them" she spoke with a cold yet professional tone. I looked at her with proudness. She had really changed a lot.
"W-will...will you be g-going with us?" Sona's voice cracked as she asked quietly. "Yes, I will be going with you" she stated. "Thank you so much Eyshana" Vicky smiled at her but Eyshana only gave him a small nod. They were about to stand up until I spoke.

"E-eysh-", "Miss Roy to you" she cut me off rudely making me fake a cough feeling embarrassed. "Ah yes, Miss Roy, I.... we need to talk to you about something" I gulped with nervousness. "If this is about our personal lives then I have no time" she spoke while packing her files. "No, No it's...it's not about that, actually...." I glanced at Vicky and Sona who were looking down with sadness.
"It's about Aliya" I mumbled. A frown was placed on her face as she looked at me with confusion. She stayed silent, not speaking a word, staring at me with those empty eyes. I continued while she stayed silent. "A...a few years ago Aliya applied for a job....." I narrated the whole story to her while she sat there with an emotionless face listening to my words.
"Yesterday night, her photos somehow were used on an advert. I don't know how because I made sure they were deleted but looks like someone had them saved them" I clenched my jaw in anger, thinking of ways how to kill that man.
I then looked at Eyshana and I swear I saw a flash of pain in her eyes before they were replaced by a cold and empty stare. I took in a deep breath and exhaled, taking the courage to ask her what I wanted to ask her from the start.
"I know I don't have the right to ask you this but...but will you please help her?" I closed my eyes shut with pain as I listened to the silence.
The room was silent for about 10 seconds until my eyes snapped open in shock, my eyes now red with tears as I looked at her with disbelief.
