Echoes of Anya Chapter : The Disappearance

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Wakes up with a start, the events of the previous night flooding back to her. She checks her phone, still no word from Maya.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Tries to shake off the lingering anxiety, focusing on the task at hand. She needs to get to work and continue gathering information on Veer.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Arrives at the office, the atmosphere noticeably tense. Whispers and rumors about Veer’s troubles fill the air.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Overhears her coworkers discussing the latest news reports, the allegations against Veer growing more serious with each passing hour.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Notices that Veer is absent from the office, his usual commanding presence replaced by an unsettling void.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Seizes the opportunity to access Veer’s private files, her heart pounding with a mixture of fear and determination.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Finds a hidden folder on Veer’s computer, protected by a complex password. She uses her hacking skills to bypass the security measures, her fingers flying across the keyboard.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Opens the folder, her eyes widening in shock as she scans the contents. It’s a treasure trove of incriminating evidence: financial records, emails, even surveillance footage.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Copies the files onto a USB drive, her mind reeling from the sheer scope of Veer’s corruption. He’s involved in everything from money laundering to human trafficking.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Hears a commotion outside the office. She quickly hides the USB drive and logs out of Veer’s computer, her heart pounding in her chest.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Sees Veer storming into the office, his face contorted with rage. He barks orders at his employees, his voice laced with menace.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Tries to avoid eye contact with Veer, her body trembling with fear. She knows he’s looking for someone to blame for the leaks.)

Riya

(Receives a call from Riya, her voice urgent.) Anika, have you seen the news?

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Confused.) No, what happened?

Riya

Maya’s gone missing.

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Her blood runs cold. Missing? What does that mean?)

Riya

Her apartment was ransacked. There was a struggle.

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Her mind races, connecting the dots. Veer. He must have found out about Maya’s involvement.)

Riya

We need to be careful, Anika. He’s coming after us.

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Her voice filled with fear and determination.) I know. But we won’t back down. We won’t let him win.

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Hangs up the phone, her resolve hardening. She knows she’s in danger, but she can’t give up now. She owes it to Anya, to Maya, and to herself.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Leaves the office, her steps quick and purposeful. She needs to find a safe place to hide, to regroup, and to plan her next move.)

𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙠𝙖/ 𝘼𝙣𝙮𝙖

(Inner monologue) Veer, you’ve crossed the line. You’re going to pay for this.
