*Anusha Pov*
“I don’t have any energy to travel, Satvik.” I said for the tenth time while he continued to sort out the files before we can leave.
“You can sleep in the car.” he mumbled, not giving much thought.
“No! I have to behave like a proper daughter-in-law, right? Otherwise, there would be something else that will hurt your Mom and you will get upset with me.” I mumbled back and he immediately straightened.
“I never got upset with you.” He pointed out.
“Yeah? You see everything I do with black shade whenever you feel upset about your Mom’s indifference.” I pointed back.
“Yes! I have made mistakes, but I don’t know what else to do. I have only you, Sha. I can’t go near our neighbors and inform them I am sad, right?” he asked frowning.
“I will be there with you through as many downs as there are. But

*Anusha Pov*It’s been twenty-four hours since I heard those words from him. It’s been twenty-four hours since the whole family is worried for Aunty.“Satvik! Twenty-four hours finished and I think the police will take the complaint now.” I mumbled when he slumped on the chair after calling everyone we know.“I already called them.” Uncle said, walking near Satvik with a normal face, but I can see the tension covering his features.“Where were you going to tell us about this man, Satvik?” he asked when Satvik stayed silent.“Uncle! We didn’t think he will…” he stopped showing me his hand and just stared at Satvik.“Do you even know what danger your Mom is in? And she has nothing to do with him or anything else.” He continued and before I can say anything to stop him he shook his head with a frown at me.

*Ansh Pov*“We will reach the hospital soon.” The nurse assured me, but I stared at my lifeless sister lying on the stretcher.But then she started moving her hand, making me grip it tightly and she finally opened her eyes before staring at me.“Bhai! I… I don’t want to see him again.” She whispered and gasped in pain when the first aid is still being given to her.“Yes! Just hold on to it, Anu.” I mumbled nodding at her.“He… he asked me to leave, Bhai. After all these months…” she trailed off closing her eyes.“I need one more help, Bhai.” She whispered opening her eyes.“What is it?” I asked brushing my tears away.“I don’t want any relationship with him anymore. I know him! And I know… he… he will come and apologize… and I may forgive him. But… but I don&rs

*Satvik Pov*“He is still busy in the meeting.” That’s the reply I got again after two hours of waiting.“Okay! I will wait.” I repeated my words and walked back near the chair before sitting down.I know he doesn’t want to meet me and is asking them to tell me these lines. But I don’t want to leave until I know Anusha is well and to know where she is.I need to see her and tell her that I am the worst person. Remembering each and everything during these two weeks along with searching for her made me realize how badly I let her down so many times.Now, no matter what her brother throws at me, I will be here until I see her. So, I sat like that for the next few hours again lost thinking about the incidents when I found the receptionist standing.“Tomorrow ensure to intimate my assistant the moment client reaches here.” I heard Ansh’s vo

*Anusha Pov*You can do this! I chanted in my head reaching the building and took a few minutes to step out of the cab.I know I am way too early, but I need this preparation time to finally face him. I still remember when he suddenly stood before me when I opened the door.It’s like I was acting as if nothing happened in my life from meeting him to leaving my parents to his home to the gunshot and mainly his accusations. But with his presence, everything burst right through into every thought in my head.Taking a deep breath, I entered the building and saw the receptionist arranging her things before looking at me.“Good morning, Maam! How was your holiday?” she asked smiling.“Good!” I replied, covering my shocked reaction with a cough, and continued to walk and reached the elevator.Finally, after reaching my cabin I took a deep but stilled when I saw the

*Anusha Pov*In the evening after fining the work, I got ready and took the elevator, but stilled when he entered it during the time it stopped near his floor.He kept on looking at the watch not saying a single word while I just stared at the doors. Finally, when they were about to open, he leaned over me whispering, “You are looking beautiful with the happiness in your eyes. I am happy for the events because of which you are feeling happy whatever they are.”“This is because of my new boyfriend.” I mumbled and took a step forward, but he held my hand slightly without forcing.“I know you are lying, Sha. But even that lie is hurting. I deserve that, right?” asking that he released my hand and walked off in a hurry while I frowned at his back.I shrugged off the moment and concentrated on why am I so happy. Yeah, I am finally back with my parents and Dad is also tal

*Anusha Pov*“That will be a problem for us.” Jay stated the moment I explained to them about the call I got this morning.“Why? It is a good opportunity for us to get a brand name directly from the top people.” I pointed out and he nodded smiling.“You are right! And I also know we have full capability to win it, but it will be a problem.” He repeated again before glancing at Satvik and then at me.“What will be the problem?” Yash asked with an irritated expression.“The competition is about making an advertisement in thoughts before presenting that to the judges and make them accept it. That can be done only by two people from the four of us. And those two people for sure can’t go together for this trip. Even if just one goes and takes either you or me, the chances of winning will reduce. And the people limit is just two people. So, tell me

*Anusha Pov*“Thank you!” I said smiling at the person standing before me or at least tried to smile while my eyes kept on moving over each one to see whether he is here yet.“Your partner is here.” The person announced and I twirled around to see him walking near to us.I know I am staring at him and people around us must be observing it too but I really want to know what happened before. What was so different with both of us that something like that happened?He smiled at me before answering the congratulations he is getting from the people and I wish I can remove that smile for making me this confused.“Hey! Come on, everyone! We all enjoyed this fest and now just dance away. The floor is looking too empty.” Someone commented and that made everyone move towards it some in pairs and some just individuals.We both just stood away while talking to whoever rea

*Anusha Pov*“No!” I whispered to myself sitting up on the bed realizing no matter what these thoughts will not leave my head.What happened to me yesterday? I asked myself for the millionth time but still don’t have an answer for it.I gave him my answer and he accepted it too, then why am I still thinking about it? I groaned picking out the phone from the bedside table.I need to talk to someone and I just have the right person for it who will not even judge me. However, when she didn’t even pick up, I placed the phone back in its place.What happened to Kirthi now? Is she already asleep this soon? I shook my head and leaned back to the bed hoping she will call me back.Somehow remembering I have work to do, I laid down and drifted off into sleep. But then the memories returned and I ended up ignoring them before letting sleep consume me even though partially.“Mom?”
