At The Beach ⛱️ 🌊 :

Vihaan was sitting silently on the beach. Mrityunjay and Tej were too sitting there silently, lost in their thoughts. Just like the trio, Manav too was lost in his deep ocean of thoughts. The heat of the sun was providing the slightest of its warmth it could and the dancing waves of the sea were trying to cool down their temper.

Since the time they have reached here, none said a single word. Even the ride was silent. No one knew what to say? They were just calculating the depth of the situation to know how to handle everything as the cool yet warm breeze caresses their hair and skin soothingly. The quiet yet warm environment of mother nature helped them to some extent in calming their racing hearts, but, it still could not stop their racing thoughts. They were trying to gulp down the bitter truth somehow that things are not in control, they never were.

Somewhere they didn't like her due to thinking that she left because she wanted luxury over her family but the truth shook them and it did shatter them somewhere that their bonding with the youngest was at stake because of those whom they could never doubt in the worst scenarios, their parents, all of the elders.

Manav can feel her pain. Living without family? He knew the feeling well. 'But atleast your father, your friends were with you, their families were also there with you at every step of your life. Who was with her?' His mind's single question constricts his heart thinking about the worst scenarios which must have caused her these nightmares and panick attacks. 'And her matureness?' His mind asks. His breathing gets heavier making him fist his hands while angrily gritting his teeth. The kid in him could understand her pain well now. . . . .may be not completely but a bit. . .he could.

Mrityunjay clears his throat and decides to break the silence after thinking a lot, "जो हो गया, we can't change that. But जो होने वाला है, we can change it. I have decided something. Let's talk to Rohan and team. They will help us with the unknown threat. Because none of our elders will open their mouths. And on the other hand, we can dig in more in her past life to help her."

[ Translation : "Whatever has happened, we can't change that. But what is going to happen, we can change it." ]

"Do we have a choice?" Vihaan asks sulkily.

Mrityunjay could tell that his voice is not of The Vihaan Khurrana but of a defeated brother's who had everything to protect his sister but just not her, who hated her because of a misunderstanding that she didn't want to be with her family. But now that he knows the truth, the brother couldn't do anything but fall into the well of guilt. Vihaan had no idea who is this kid, so funny, naughty, young and childish yet so mature and understanding that it scares him. None could understand her even a bit. She is so simple to be with but too deep that no one could understand how deep that well is which lies in her words and eyes . . . .eyes which anyone of them can hardly guess what are they trying to say. It was not so simple to read her simplest of words and reactions sometimes. She was so simple yet too critical to understand, let alone to answer this toughest riddle of his life.
