A promise: That changed my life

Daniel

"And when the right time arrived with the help of Julia, I ran from there with Esha, I took the flight of Us to collect all the documents of me being an Indian so I can come here. I was in my Us home and was about to leave from there as well when I received a voice message from Marcello on my landline no. He threatened me that he will kill Esha and Me both as he has already, " She paused, inhaling a breath, and then continued, " He has already killed Julia for helping me escape, knowing this I can't go back to my home city Mumbai, I would be alone and he can easily find me there so I tried to find Karan's contact no. "

"But instead you found mine and asked me to inform this, Karan, because he lives in Jodhpur and can help you and Esha get through this, " I finished for her.

She nodded, adding, "I was wrong he will never help me, I am sure, he will never even wanna see my face, and Marcello will kill us, he is the main reason behind these scars, " She points at her neck and shoulder, allowing me to see red dry wounds on them.

I shook my head, sitting beside her, "If I know my best friend well, then don't worry, he won't help you but surely he will help his daughter and come on, we are in fucking India that too in Jodhpur, Karan is the prince of this city, most people hear his orders and rules so does the government itself. Doesn't matter how big gangsta that bastard Marcello is, he can't touch you while you are here," I stated, confidently, giving her some strong hopes.

"But for that, we need to talk to Karan, and he's not here with you is enough to confirm that he ain't gonna help any time soon, " She said, gulping the lump in her throat, trying not to burst out in tears.

I put my hand on her shoulder, " Because he is not aware that he has been blessed with a little angel, and I know Karan can do anything to save what's his." 

She looks up at me with hopes, "Then do something, Danny, I don't want Esha to have the same faith as mine, I want to give her the best life possible, " 

"Right. I am going to Karan's house right now to visit his mother, I will try to talk to him there once again, " Even knowing, after this second talk he is either gonna break our fucking 11 years of friendship or he will do anything to protect them.

"Thanks, Danny, I don't know how to thank you enough, " she says, hugging me as I wrapped my hands around her.

"A brother can at least do this for his sister, "
