Aadhya falls asleep having found her solace in Sana's lap after feeding sumptuously on her milk.

Sana pulled and opened the door of her room and found Sidharth standing in front of her. He missed the knock on the door and instead knocked on her forehead.

"Ouch", Sana shrieked at a sudden knock by touching her forehead

"Ooops... Sana.. Sorry..", he said hurriedly rubbing her forehead himself with one hand by holding her hand with another.

"Tssshhh.. Aadhya is sleeping.", She shushed looking up at him.

They both raced inside to pat Aadhya when she whined a little with their noise and having found Sana missing. Sana patted on her chest while humming a tune and Aadhya gripped her forefinger and fell asleep peacefully again.

Sidharth shifted his focus on Sana as soon as Aadhya fell asleep. Sana sensed his gaze on her and blushed biting her lip. She kept her eyes down and caressed Aadhya's head delicately.

A shiver ran down her entire body and her hand froze when he placed his hand over hers. He then kept his head on her lap, closed his eyes shut and placed her hand on his head. She caressed and stroked his hair as delicately as she did for Aadhya.

"Even I couldn't sleep while you were away Sana.", He muttered in a low voice. Her heart sank as she had experienced the same pain of seperation herself. A warm teardrop from her eyes escaped and landed on his cheek making him open his eyes instantly.

"Sana..?", He uttered.

She wiped her teardrop from his face and he wiped hers.

"Don't cry Sana. It hurts a lot to see you cry. I know you've gone through a lot of pain. If I am given a chance, I would take all your pain and suffering to myself and fill your life with smiles.", He said looking up at her face still lying in her lap.

"Don't wish for my pain Sidharth. I won't wish this pain upon my enemies as well, let alone you who I..", she stopped from completing the sentence.

"Whom you?", He asked and she nodded her head to say nothing and looked away from him to avoid his eye contact.

"Say it Sana. I want to hear it.", Requested Sidharth but she stayed silent.

"Sana.. I love you..", Sidharth spoke while cuping her cheek to make her look into his eyes. When their eyes met, he saw a gush of tear flowing out from her eyes. He sat up straight and climbed down the bed to leave. She held his wrist to stop him from going away and he looked at her face.

"I shouldn't love you Sidharth.. It's a sin..", she sobbed.

"What?", He looked at her totally dumbfounded.

"I am a married woman.. and it's forbidden to love someone else..", she sulked putting down her head.

"Do you love him?", He asked

"No.. I hate him.. he is a murderer.. I hate him.", She said seething in anger.

"You don't love him neither are you married to him in the eyes of court. Moreover, he is legally married to someone else. Why do you want to believe that you are married Sana?", Asked Sidharth.

"Because I may have not registered my marriage but I still married him in front of God and the Holy Fire. How do I un-marry him?", Asked Sana.

"Marriage is between two people Sana. He doesn't even considers you as his wife. You married a lie. Moreover, when love in itself is pure, how can you call it a sin?", He asked.
