Those 5 minutes

Meanwhile jai's phone rang. It was an unknown number. 'Hello jai. Zia here. I need to talk to you urgently..' 'Arey from where are you calling? Why dint you call from your mobile??' 'There's a big problem jai..' zia started crying. 'Arey Kya hua. Don't cry yaar please. Tell me what happened no..' But Zia couldn't hold back her tears. Jai waited till she calmed down. 'Jai can you help me with this jar..'annie yelled from the kitchen. Jai went to the kitchen and unlocked the jar. Zia heard her voice 'Are you at Anie's place?' She asked trying to stop sobbing. 'Yea came just now.. she wanted to talk to me urgently. But jaan kya hua bolna y r u crying?' 'Jai i told my parents about us.. ' 'KYA...' jai screamed. He knew, today or later whenever her parents knew about their affair, it would be a nightmare. Annie came running from inside hearing him scream. He signalled her to stay quiet. 'Dad had almost fixed my marriage with one of his friends son settled in londan etc etc.. he was to come next week for meeting me and then engagement soon. I had to tell him re.. And dad's pissed off with me like anything. He's not talking to me. Mom too is upset.. they have taken my mobile from me. i've come downstairs on the pretex of getting some groceries. Don't have much time.. do something jai.. i am very scared.. i don't want to loose you jaan.. ' zia's eyes started watering again. Jai had absolutely no idea what to do. Here he was sitting home jobless as his project was seized due to bad sea conditions, and there time had already come to take a decision for his life.
