The moment the gun fell from Idhita's hand, a suffocating silence engulfed the entire warehouse. It was as if time itself had frozen. Nobody moved. Nobody spoke. Every single person present stared at the scene in utter shock, trying to process what had just happened. One second Idhita had been pointing the gun confidently at Arohi, and the next second the weapon had slipped from her grasp after a bullet pierced through her hand. The metallic clang of the gun hitting the floor echoed throughout the warehouse and seemed unnaturally loud in the silence that followed.
