....continued from previous part....
Neetu was numb for a moment.Her world became blank.The towering hills disappeared from in front of her eyes,for she only knew she had to save her mother.Her mother was in danger she had earlier sensed a probability of.Now what she feared that it might happen with her was actually happening with her mother.
The 'horrible' master was grabbing her mother,covering her face with his hand and pushing her against the wall of the house.Her mother was constantly struggling to free herself,but this man won't let go;as if she was something to play with. Neetu screamed,as much as she had never screamed before,"Leave her!"The master just turned back,smiled and removed his hand from over mother's face.She screamed to her children,"Run,dear!For this man is nothing better than a danger.Run if you want to save yourself!"Maybe Ansh wanted to listen to her out of fear(he had never before disobeyed his mother,and it had always profited him,but now the case was different),but he was as clever as her sister.So instead of running away,he went into the house,called up the police and screamed as much as he could to summon the attention of the neighbors.Meanwhile,Neetu had grabbed a stick that was lying nearby,and attacked the master.Knowing the danger,the master dived to the other side,and Neetu almost hit her mother.She managed herself in the last moment and got ready for the next attack.But the master was cleverer.He grabbed Neetu by her feet and pulled her down.Nearby was the cliff from where if you drop,you will never be found again,alive or dead.Both the fighters aimed at throwing the other one down into the dark cliff. But Neetu wanted to do something that the master couldn't have ever guessed-pull him towards the road.Maybe that increased the chances of the master to hurt her more,but the people plus tourists would always make a chance for Neetu too.
The master was now pulling Neetu's dress as if he wanted to tear it of.She knew that it was her only chance.She had almost reached the front when the master freed himself.Ansh was approaching with some people,pointing at the two fighters,but they were still far away.Neetu was practically fighting alone.As she almost freed her dress,a car came and stopped nearby.There were some tourists.They got off and tried to help Neetu.She was dumbstruck.The incident took place so suddenly that she stopped fighting for a moment.By then,the tourists had got the master down,but he was adament. He didn't want to leave.Nor did Neetu want to be caught.She started running blindly. She did not see the other car coming from the opposite direction.Before the car could stop,Neetu crashed against it.
No one realized that something was going to happen to Neetu after this incident.Something that would change her life completely.
