That's how Sahesh managed to turn my entire life upside down. I was helpless because of what he had knowingly or unknowingly done to me. Shanalka stayed by my side like I did nothing and did everything from feeding me to bathing me, making me feel guilty even more.

Meanwhile, Yeheni kept avoiding me. She used to bring me a cup of tea every morning, but she was not as friendly with me as before. It was clear to me that she was angry about something but I couldn't clearly understand if it was because of my spending the night with Sahesh.

On the third day after Sahesh's incident, Yeheni did not bring me a cup of morning tea. Instead, Shanalka came to the room and said that Yeheni had left somewhere. Wherever she went, my mind kept nagging at me that she had gone to something dangerous. As I had not spoken a word for four days, I did not go to give him an answer. As usual, I went to bed and prepared to spend the day, but around noon, I heard the door of the house opening quickly and someone running into the house.

Next, the door to the room I was in opened. Yeheni's hair was a mess as she was waving and she ran into the room and jumped into Shanalka's lap sitting across from me and hugged him. Yeheni started crying like never before as Shanalka tried to calm her down while I watched the two of them.

'Ayya...' Yeheni sneered and hid her head on Shanalka's shoulder.

'Sh... sh... sh... it's okay now. It's okay... now stop crying like a good girl.'

Yeheni was even wearing the same pair of shoes she had worn for the trip. I couldn't imagine what shocked her so much.

Yeheni took a quick breath and her face turned pale. It was one of the things I hated the most in my life.

I didn't need to ask again about what I was seeing Mehansa through Yeheni when Shanalka put Yeheni on the bed and ran to her room and fetched a ventilator. I couldn't wait as he connected it to Nangi's face and made her breathe. I got off the bed with all my strength and took off Yeheni's shoes and placed her feet on a pillow so that she could breathe e

Shanalka nervously took off the hoodie she was wearing. As Yeheni's hands fell onto the bed, I saw nturnedcut marks that indicated they had been freshlygratitudess of the wounds still remained, suggesting that they were no more than two or three days old.

As Yeheni's breathing slowly returned to normal, Shanalka calmly looked at me with a grateful look.

He switched off the ventilator and started rubbing Yeheni's head. Yeheni looked at Shanalka with short heavy sighs.

'He... raped Mehansa...'

Hearing Mehansa's name, I stared at her from where I was.

When Yeheni started crying again, Shanalka started patting her head to comfort her.

'He tried to do that to me.' I couldn't figure out who she was talking about.

'He...' Yeheni repeats as Shanalka tries to calm her down.

'He raped your Miru by drugging him with sleeping pills.'

My legs limped me to the floor next to the bed. I naturally remembered the glass that Sahesh had given me. I couldn't believe he drugged me. My head turned again and I remembered what Yeheni had said.

' He... raped Mehansa... '

Did he rape Mehansa?

I knew that Sahesh was fond of Mehabut I did not know that he raped her. But I remembered that in the last few days, Mehansa hated Sahesh very much.

I had behaved like a real fool. Even when my own best friend was raping my own sister, I foolishly invited him to my house more and more.

Even though I tried to let the tears fall from my eyes, my head would not give me the energy to cry.

'Babe...' I looked up at him as I felt Shanalka grab my chin.

'Let me go.' I got the word out four days later.

Shanalka sighed and stood up next to me and walked back to the nangi.

Yeheni was still talking half-consciously, so I listened to  she was saying.

'I love my Mei Mei so much... She kissed me before she left me. My Mehansa...'

Mehansa!

Mehansa with Yeheni?

I wondered how much more there was that I didn't know about my own nangi. Although I knew that Mehansa had a deep friendship with Yeheni, I didn't know that they had some relationship beyond that.

My headache is getting worse and worse. Even though I think I know more than I should have today, Yeheni still says things unconsciously.

'Mehansa told me about how Sahesh hurt her.' Yeheni cried. 'If I killed him that time, he wouldn't have done the same to your Miru... it was my fault. It was all my fault.'

'Nango... Now stop crying like a good girl' Shanalka tries to calm her down but Yeheni is too out of control.

'I can't... I can't watch him living with pain like that. Tell him to smile. Mei Mei told me... to take care of her brother.'

I started crying suddenly. I couldn't bear how Mehansa had thought of me till the last moment. I did not know that Sahesh had molested her. But the way she instigated me to be with Sahesh without saying a word.

'Oh, Yeheni, go to sleep... That's enough,'

Yeheni took a heavy sigh. 'What will happen to him now.'

I started crying loudly and Shanalka helplessly got up from Yeheni's side from time to time to comfort me.

I started hating Sahesh like I never did before.

Most of all, I hated myself.

Liking the person who molested my nangi.

Sleeping with the person who tried to rape the sister of the person who loved me the most.

I could not forgive myself.

As Yeheni fell asleep slowly. I let my tears go away without holding them back.
