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.
