In afternoon, Shehnaaz got discharged from hospital. Sidharth took her to his house. On their way, Shehnaaz was so scared. She was clinging onto him, scared if someone hurt her. Her condition was breaking him from inside, only he knew how he had stopped himself from breaking down. What fate had turn his girl into? how badly he wanted to see the old Shehnaaz, the one who used to smile, who used to laugh.
Sidharth wiped his tears away and entered his bedroom where she was sleeping. He stares at her sleeping form, even in her sleep the painful look didn't disappeared from her face.
Sidharth sat on the edge of the bed, just staring at the angel sleeping on his bed. His gaze fall over her belly, something stir in him. He moved close to her. With shivering hand he touched her belly. He closed his eyes and let his tears trickle down his cheeks. His baby was there, growing in her womb but before he could even about its existence, his baby died the painful death.
"I won't leave you, Vindu. You will pay for it." Sidharth thought to himself, he wiped his tears away and stood up. Taking out his cell phone from his pocket, he dialed number of his father's lawyer who is also a family friend of Shukla's.
"Hello, uncle. Actually i need your help.." Sidharth told the whole matter to lawyer, Mr. Anuj Kapoor who is very famous and respected lawyer in India.
"Alright, Sidharth. I'll collect her medical reports from hospital and filed a case against him. Case if very strong from our side, and If everything goes right then i don't think court will even ask for Shehnaaz to appear in court to give her statement." Anuj answered from the other side of call.
"Thank you so much, uncle." Sidharth was satisfied with his move, he will do everything in hand to get Vindu punish for his sins. After talking to Anuj, Sidharth cuts the call and was about to moved back into his room but the ring of his cell phone stopped him. He checked the caller id, it was Rashmi.
"Yes, Rashmi."
"Sidharth, Where the hell are you? Did you forgot, today you had to go to meet NYC academy dean with Aarti for affiliation? How could you forget about this?" Rashmi shouted from the other side of call. He closed his eyes, he wasn't really in state to handle anything else.
"Sorry, Rash. I can't come." He replied, for him his Shehnaaz was important than anything else. It was time when his Shehnaaz needs him the most.
"What? Are you serious, Sidharth? If we didn't got affiliation then we won't be able to open our acting academy." Rashmi reminded him, he could feel anger in her voice but at that time he didn't care.
"Sorry, Rashmi but I can't come." Sidharth apologized before he cut the call and entered the room. He rushed to her when he saw her mumbling something in her sleep, Shehnaaz she sweating, her breathing was ragged.
"Pl..plea..se..d.don't..k..kill..m.my..ba..baby.." Sidharth knew Shehnaaz has having nightmare, he grabbed her hand and rubbed her palms. Waking her up can scared her more. He caressed her head, tears brimmed in his eyes as she kept pleading to not to hit her in her sleep.
(Guys do uh remember when I made a comeback on Watty after demise of my one year old daughter Sana, I mentioned I slipped into depression after her. After numerous therapies and counselling the fear subsided. Depression and Nightmares are two worst things a mother faces after losing her baby. This is part of my real life experience so thought to use my nightmares as Shehnaaz's)
"Shehnaaz, Shehnaaz. Please, relax, love. I'm here with you, i won't let anyone you. You are safe." Sidharth whispered in ear, his tone soothing & sweet. Shehnaaz started breathing heavily, Sidharth couldn't see her like that. His heart bleed seeing her condition and anger toward Vindu for breaking his princess to this extent.
