Sid was still hugging Abhi. Abhi was feeling so overwhelmed. He slightly pulled back Sid but he clutched his shirt more tight.

Abhi looked at vaishu. She came to them and took sid gently away from abhi.

Vai: Shiva....it's ok...Abhi is not angry on u...so calm down ok...

Sid: ok di...he said looking down.

Abhi: Shiva...why are u so nervous....

Sid: no bhaiya...it's just...i...it's...i am sorry....

Abhi: there is nothing wrong u did to ask sorry Shiva...then why are u asking sorry....

Vai: leave it na Abhi....in these last 5 days the only word he used most of the times is sorry....

Abhi: that's not good vaishu...Shiva get one thing clear...if u are not in fault then u don't have to ask sorry or feel sorry...ok...

Sid: ok bhaiya...he said looking at him

Abhi was about say something when his mobile rang. He answered it and he got a huge smile on his face hearing the other side.

Abhi: thank u so much mumma...love u...he said ending the call.

Vaishu looked at him curiously and Abhi nodded in assurance. Vaishu understood whats that about...

Abhi: shiva...come here...i want to tell u something he said making him sit on the couch and both vaishu and abhi stood before him.

For a second sid got scared as they stood before him reminded him the times Maya and shekar stood before him like this just to beat him as punishment. Sids mind involuntarily remembered that he leaned back when Abhi tried to put his hand on his shoulder.

Abhi saw the uncomfort of sid and stepped back. Vaishu saw that and took the chair and gave to Abhi and she sat beside Sid.

Vai: dont be scared of us Shiva...u know right....me or Abhi will never hurt u...infact we will try our best to save u from getting hurt ok....

Abhi: she is right...i know u can't trust us suddenly but u should give us a chance....

Sid just nodded in ok looking at them.

Abhi: ok now....i want to tell u something....

Sid: what is it bhaiya...

Abhi: vaishu told me u want to study....

Sid looked at vaishu not knowing what to answer.

Vai: why are u looking at me...u want to study na...

Sid: yeah di but...

Abhi: but....

Sid: i haven't completed school and i don't have money....

Abhi gently took Sid's hand in his. Abhi could still see some scars which was getting fade on his hands. There was a burnt scar which made Abhi's blood to boil. He really wanted to kill those monsters who made that kid to suffer like that....he gently caressed him hands....

Abhi: for money u don't have to worry Shiva....mom is running an NGO and she will sponser u to study that too fully...and about not completing the school u can select vocational courses which will help u to learn from basics...so don't worry...

Sid: but di...i..i am scared...i don't want to come in big area where lots of strangers will be there....

Vai: u don't have to Shiva....u are not going to be alone...we both will also he there....
