All four of them were sitting at the airport lounge, waiting for their flight which was delayed a bit due to bad weather.

"So umm...... " Alan tried to brush aside the awkwardness developed in the air. The rest of the three didn't even look up to pay attention to what was he tried to say.
26Please respect copyright.PENANA4zsGPHDjEM
"So many years of hardwork, dedication and discipline.... just to get our names off the market. Only to bring us back right at its doorstep." Raj sighed
26Please respect copyright.PENANAPPCDELnXNS
They all continued drinking another round of wine. Few hours ago these were the men who claimed to know each other like the back of their hand now...sit purely in silence and agony.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAXJRrQqOiAN
"Come on guys its just one job. No blood, no cheating the public... just get in, take the car and drive out..?" Clive tried to start a conversation.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAewWy22ElW1
"Don't you realise, how tough it is TO FINALLY GET A CLEAN SLATE FOR YOURSELF!!!? NOT WORRYING ABOUT BEING ASSASSINATED OR BEING TORTURED OR... OR BEING BLACKMAILED??" Raj seemed infuriated
26Please respect copyright.PENANAmErThrr0Y4
"I GUESS YOU DON'T. YOU DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER WHO YOU WERE. Thus it seems so easy for you to say." Raj mocked
26Please respect copyright.PENANA84yjn8gKTA
"OH REALLY? IT IS MY FAULT WE ARE DOING THIS AGAIN?? " Clive said angrily
26Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6jLBbRqbD
"Hey, hey guys... calm down. We all have our own sets of mistakes. None of us wants to walk down that lane again. So let's get our minds running on how do we get him his car and our freedom?" Rafiq said
26Please respect copyright.PENANAMqV5Ul5mhU
"Yeah, whatever happens amongst us remains amongst us. Rather than fighting its better we all come up with a plan. " Alan said
26Please respect copyright.PENANAaCrrZgq9Rw
"Fine.... " Clive said backing out and drinking his final few sips of wine. He looked around the room. His eyes stopped on a woman, dressed in an all black formal suit staring right at him. He quickly looked away but his intuition felt odd. He once again looked towards her only to find her staring straight into his soul.
26Please respect copyright.PENANA9Po6UseRtB
"Hey umm... Alan" Clive whispered
26Please respect copyright.PENANAGQg83RtDZn
"Yeah?"
26Please respect copyright.PENANAS49Btstem8
"Look at my 9. Do you see a woman..."
26Please respect copyright.PENANAdIlXUmwXDY
Alan looked at his left
26Please respect copyright.PENANAECKYuH4PXs
"There are many woman. Be specific."
26Please respect copyright.PENANAAkZdliSMxr
"All black. Formals. She was staring right at me."
26Please respect copyright.PENANAzjmE0RTFS7
Alan continued scouting for a woman of that kind.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAXm8hGFdf8z
"Umm... you are sure Clive?? Cause I cant see any woman as such."
26Please respect copyright.PENANANtryTBwei6
Clive instantly turned towards his left, but the woman whom he was looking for wasnt there...
26Please respect copyright.PENANAu4f2z6pIuC
He sat there, pondering. How was it possible..? The image of her was too clear to be a thought...
26Please respect copyright.PENANArlEwZFs0V2
"So here we go... next stop tokyo." Raj got up as their boarding time approached. All four of them queued up in line to board the airplane.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAhgFFJJ7vma
Clive again being a bit bored of his group took interest in the hustle and bustle around him. He turned back looking at people strolling everywhere at the terminal. Few people even running to their respective gates.
26Please respect copyright.PENANABBKzD5aKgt
There was also a small crowd of people discussing on some matter. Clive felt a bit interested in knowing the issue left his queue and went near the crowd. As he tried to fit in the crowd, his head lifted up. Clive froze there. He saw a lady. The same lady in black staring back at her. He blinked his eyes to make sure he wasn't hallucinating her.... she was still there.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAHdt5JpcPiS
"Who are you... what do you want." He asked hesitantly
26Please respect copyright.PENANAhyQthUqNKB
All she did was, pointed towards him and the next second she vanished in thin air.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAYTANU0epYj
Clive couldn't believe what he saw. He tried finding her through the crowd who were witnessing two people arguing about a spiritual coffee.
26Please respect copyright.PENANALc3sbUW6ZU
He tried hard but couldn't find her.
26Please respect copyright.PENANADq4wI8pkQl
"CLIVE!! WHERE ARE YOU ! LET'S GO !" Alan shouted from their boarding gate.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAel2T4GgG5P
Clive returned quickly but couldn't keep this incident to himself.
26Please respect copyright.PENANAUeBmqiYsmc
" Alan....I saw her again man."
26Please respect copyright.PENANA9ylzNnBdaF
"Who, that lady in black you were talking about earlier?"
26Please respect copyright.PENANAjHCJr7bpUt
"Yes.... she said she wants me."
26Please respect copyright.PENANAaU7NSXjOvu
"Well, good thing you are a bachelor still. Would have been a bit complicated if you were married." Alan said jokingly
26Please respect copyright.PENANAatY7XrDJVq
"No, i mean she meant it in a serious note. Like I will kill you or something." Clive clarified
26Please respect copyright.PENANAYOZo7dvzoM
"Clive. Its gonna be a long flight. Get some sleep. We have a car to find." Alan patted his back as Clive sat on his seat.
26Please respect copyright.PENANA8JCrJ4eKeQ
Clive who had no reply just nodded.
26Please respect copyright.PENANATglxxRFxf8
And they were off to Tokyo, Japan.
