Size 10
Sunaina drove me to Hotel Orchid. I entered to room no 202. It was like new. Everything was decorated. I wanted to recreate the mess so I tried to mess the master bedroom as it was when I was attacked. I put talcum powder on the floor and then sat on the floor, was trying to remember every detail. Sunaina called Tamble sir and asked him to check hotel security footage. Tamble Sir informed her that Mr Arvind was already going through all details and footage. I was sitting there for nearly 30 minutes and It was his worlds which he whispered into my ears, was keep coming back again and again. He changed his voice forcefully when he whispered. But why? If I know him already? Sunaina found presence of bleach all over. The whole room was washed to destroy any fingerprint or blood spot. In the meantime Tamble Sir came. He told me that the security footage couldn’t help much. Nothing suspicious was there. He told me that Mr Arvind would be in charge of this case now. I was about to leave suddenly saw Tamble Sir’s shoe print on the talcum powder. It was a match.
I jumped and hugged Tamble sir. Sunaina and Sir both looked at me curiously. I told them that when I came to find Ramona 2nd time, the room was messy and there was a size 10 shoe print. The print was exact same type of shoe print of Tamble Sir’s uniform shoe. But sir was Size 7 and the murderer’s shoe size was NO 10. What if our murderer was from Police? Tamble sir firstly objected the idea but then it was also fact that every time the murderer was ahead of police since they found shadow dealers. What if the drug organization had an informer in police? Well Tamble Sir told us that if we put allegation on Police department then that must be with proper proof. Tamble sir assured us to have a look on our new perspective till then we both should take rest and search of Regina was on.
Sunaina came back to my home with me. In the meantime Vicky called him but she cut the phone instead of receiving with a bit of irritation in her face. I picked two papers and gave one to Sunaina.
Let’s make a note on what we knew till now and who were related.
We both finished the list and we looked at each other. Sunaina already started to move head sideways as she couldn’t believe the name just appeared on her suspect list as the common person in all incidents and I had the same person. It’s Mr Arvind D’Souza. I remembered Regina’s description of the person who according to her might followed me when I visited Hotel orchid on the second time, she told me that someone tall well build followed me. Arvind also matched with her description.
I called Mr Basu, he worked under Tamble sir and very informative person. I asked him about Mr Arvind’s home address. He told me that Arvind had two homes, one in Goa and another here in Malad. I noted down the address and we drove there. There was no one at home that time. I was practicing to break a lock for few days from YouTube. That came handy and we broke into his home. I asked Sunaina that no to come but she insisted to come along. I have started to search every corner, found his shoes , Size number 10. Sunaina called my name, when I followed her voice; I saw she was coming out from a hidden door which was inside a closet. I saw her face. It was scared, pale. I asked her what happened. I wanted to go inside the closet to see what was there. But Sunaina hugged me tight. She tried to stop me to go there. I went inside. I finally found her. Regina. She was still beautiful, innocent. I touched her face. I could not control. I shouted loud. I hugged her lifeless body. She was crudely strangled to death. I kept shouting till Sunaina came and hugged me. I asked her to call police. There was no mobile network inside the house so Sunaina went outside to call. I came out to the bedroom. I felt terrible. I fell into my knees. It was my fault. I killed her. I saw Regina’s bracelet there which he took as souvenir. I heard the door opened. I told Sunaina with a soft voice – It was me, I killed her Sunaina.
“YES YOU KILLED HER AND NOW YOU WILL KILL HER TOO”
I looked back. Arvind was grabbing Sunaina’s hair and put a gun on her head. I slowly walk towards dining room where he was holding Sunaina. I looked at Sunaina. She was scared but composed and silent. I told her not to scare. I won’t let anything bad ever happened with her. I looked at Arvind. Told Sunaina – “He can’t shoot you from his service revolver”
Arvind – Yes you are right. Oh you are fucking clever Mr Director. I can’t shoot her. I don’t need to. I will bury her alive, but oh h oho. Not you ass hole. You will die today.
Arvind hit hard on the back of Sunaina’s head and she fell on the floor senselessly. I moved as faster as possible to hit him but he ducked my punch and kicked me. He was a giant and a well-trained police. Before I did anything he punched me twice and smashed me on the glass table. I could not move. I was bleeding from all over my body. He came close slowly. Dragged a chair & sat on it in front of me.
Arvind – Tell me Mr Indra. How did you find about me.
I was bleeding from all over and my left leg was feeling numb as a big glass piece was stuck inside my left leg. I couldn’t even move. I looked at him, wiped the blood from my nose, smiled and pointed at his shoes. He followed my direction and looked at his leg. He started to laugh loud.
“HOLY SHIT – Are you serious? My legs? “ – Arvind
I replied – Not your leg, you Idiot. It was your shoe. Police uniform shoe – SIZE 10. It was also on the floor of 202.
Arvind lighted up a cigarette and offered me. “ Come on Mr Detective, smoke with me, I know Smoking kills but who cares because you are dead already” .
I took a cigarette. Then he threw the lighter.
Arvind – Only Shoe ? What’s more?
I replied showing the cigarette. You smoked Camel brand Blue label cigarette, Which is costly and rare when you came close to whisper into my ear, I had that smell.
Arvind – “OH MY GOD – You, Mr Director. You are fucking intelligent. I heard that you had quite a good carrier. You won awards too. Then why suddenly you have started to poke your nose into these things. Last time when you luckily get away from death because of this bitch [ looked at Sunaina], you should thank god and move on to your film direction but no you are a stubborn ass hole, you again poked me. Now I will kill you with my own hands like I killed you girlfriend Regina. Poor girl, she couldn’t even put a fight for much long. But yes thanks to you, I found the last piece of the puzzle Ramona. Well now “GET READY TO DIE “
Arvind had a rope inside his pocket; he might use this same rope to strangle Regina to death. He moved aggressively towards me with rope in his hand. He was about to wrap that rope around my neck. His hands already reached at my neck, When he smashed me on the table, there was a bottle of body spray. It was behind my back.I lighted up the lighter and sprayed the body spray on his face through the fire and I whispered –
“SMOKING KILLS “
His whole face got on fire. He fell down on the ground. His face was on fire. He was shouting like hell. Somehow he grabbed the curtains and started to rub his face.
I stood up slowly; I couldn’t feel my left leg. I picked up the rope. I saw him trying rub off the fire. His face was badly burned. He couldn’t see. I was waiting behind him silently. He was abusing me, searching me. I pounced on his back, wrapped the rope tight around his neck and pulled with all my power. He was big, Powerful. He wanted to throw me from his back but I was determined, focused. I kept using all my power to pull the rope hard and strangle him. He fought over 6 to 8 minutes and slowly started to numb. But I didn’t lose the rope for a single second; I kept pulling with all my strength. Slowly hee stopped abusing me. He could not speak, could not breath. He was chocking. I kept pulling. I went close to his ears while pulling the rope. Whispered into his ears “He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious” again and again and again and again …..
My Secret
Zhujiajiao Town is a beautiful water town in Shanghai. I finally came to Shanghai. It was almost a month. I was also hospitalized for weeks. But when I was released, I have decided to meet Regina’s mother. She welcomed me with a pleasant smile. I sat in front of her. I told her that It was me the cause of her daughter’s death and for that I could never forgive myself. I was emotional; my eyes were full with tears. She came close, she touched my hand, She asked me softly “What happened to the person who did that to Regina? I told her what happened –
“ …. I pulled the rope with all my force till killed that animal then Tamble sir came in time. Tamble Sir checked the partial print which was discovered from the shoe against all police records and found match with Mr Arvind. Then he tracked Arvind’s mobile activities for past few days and found him near Hotel Orchid during Ramona’s murder time. He wanted to call me but my phone was out of reach so he asked Mr Basu to get info about Arvind. Mr Basu told him that I already called him to get Arvinds address. So Tamble sir rushed and saved Arvind from me. But his eyes and vocal cord are completely destroyed now he can never see or talk in future. Police already found souvenirs from each murder victims from his Goa home, 50 kg of cocaine and a diary of all dealers. He became the Drug lord of Goa. His good name in Police and his contacts in higher authority always helped him to transport and smuggle drugs and worked as a perfect cover for himself. He was clever & crude. He killed more than 60 people and finally he is caught”
Regina’s mother touched my face and told me “Do not blame yourself, Son. It was her destiny. I was always proud of my daughter and I always will be. She chose a wonderful person. She had you and that’s why I am more proud of her”
When I came out from her home I was feeling light hearted, free. I slowly moved towards the car.
Sunaina was waiting for me. She looked at me. Smiled and told me – “ I knew you will feel good”.
I looked at her. Admitted – “ yes. You are right as usual” and smiled back.
Sunaina – so, what’s next Mr Indra? Leave all this for a moment? You must be tired.
I – [After a little pause] Not at all. Let’s roll
Sunaina – Indra what’s your secret? Even Tamble Sir asked me same. I think you never give up. That’s your secret. That’s what keeps you moving. Isn’t it?
I started the car and replied with a smile – Nope, It’s you.
