FALLING IN LOVE

part-5(last rituals 😔)

A few minutes later, Omi knocked on the door of KK's cabin.

KK opened it.

The moment Omi saw him, he pulled him into a hug.

He knew exactly what Abhi meant to KK.

He knew the bond they shared.

KK completely broke down.

KK: Omi... he went... Omi...

His voice cracked.

For the next hour, KK cried without stopping.

Omi stayed by his side silently.

After some time, Omi gently spoke.

Omi: Bhai... now you have to be strong.

KK looked at him with tear-filled eyes.

Omi: His family is suffering. They're scared for Teja too.

He paused.

Omi: And Abhi gave you a responsibility.

Omi: You have to handle it, Bhai. Please.

KK lowered his head.

KK: Omi... why this is happening?

Omi had no answer.

He simply hugged him again.

Omi: Bhai...

After a while, Omi brought KK outside.

He pointed towards TD and TM.

Omi: Bhai, look at them.

KK followed his gaze.

Omi: They lost their only son.

His voice became heavy.

Omi: And they don't even know whether their daughter will survive or not.

KK closed his eyes.

Omi: Yet they've kept their trust in you.

Omi: They need us, Bhai.

Omi: Please.

KK slowly nodded.

KK: Hmm...

He walked towards TD and TM.

Without saying anything, he hugged both of them.

TM was crying uncontrollably.

But what scared KK the most was TD.

He wasn't crying.

He wasn't speaking.

He was simply staring into space.

KK knelt beside him.

KK: Uncle...

He gently placed a hand on his shoulder.

There was no response.

KK: Uncle... please say something.

Still nothing.

KK: Uncle, look at me.

His voice trembled.

KK: Your wife needs you.

KK: Your daughter needs you.

KK: Please, Uncle...

KK lightly shook him.

The words finally reached him.

And suddenly TD broke down.

Years of strength shattered within seconds.
