He was standing there stunned while watching her running inside. Her words were piercing his heart. No matter how much he behaved like a cold person but the truth is he still had a soft side which he was suppressing for a long time. Today she again made a stir in that secret part of his heart and he was definitely not liking it.

As she left he too came back to his room.

"Why?" He shouted with frustration and sat down on his couch while gripping his head. His anger knew no bounds. He was getting furious over himself. It had been five years since he had became so cold that no one could affect him but this girl....

"Who the hell is she to call me devil and heartless. She doesn't know anything about me. It's my life.I will decide what to do. I didn't do anything wrong. She made me angry. It was her mistake. She was interfering in my life. She crossed her boundaries by tricking me.She is at fault then why am I feeling bad? Why I was not able to see her tears? Why I felt like that to see her in pain?Why her words bothering me, Why? What is happening to me?.... How could she affect me this much? How??" He was questioning himself but he had no answers.

These questions were swirling in his mind that it became impossible for him to stay at home anymore. He was getting suffocated. He needed to be out.So without wasting time he got up and immediately left from there.

Avni was in her room. Her arms were still paining. She applied a cold compress to relieve the pain. She still couldn't believe how he treated her. She was continuously thinking about him.

"Ouch..."she whined as she felt the coldness on her swollen arm and started munching her favorite chocolate to cool her anger. It was the only thing that could  lift her mood.

"I don't know how can someone be this stone hearted."She said while licking the chocolate from her lips.

"Ok...I know I tricked him today, but I didn't hurt anyone. I did this just for Sam. That Poor child got so happy when he saw him in the school but Mr. Devil.... He was not able to see his son's happiness . What if he attended the function? what's big deal in this? Can't he spend just few hours for his child's happiness? Is his work is his only priority?Is family nothing for him?.... Oh god..... Please give him some sense. He is a beast... Look how badly he pressed my arms!!... Aahhh.... It's still hurting...." She said with pain.

"Please God...,..send Ayush back here quickly.Once he comes back I won't have to see this devil again but till than I have to tolerate him because of Dadi and Sam......" She said and sighed but after a moment some mischievous thought striked her mind.

"Ok then......you know Mr. Devil... It's enough now. You have messed up with the wrong person. I will not forgive you for this. Be ready.... Now you have to pay back for your doing......" She said and threw the wrapper in the bin after having the last bite of her chocolate.

It was dinner time. Vikrant had still not came back. Dadi was waiting for him.

"Avni.... Do you know when he did he leave?" She asked her hoping she might know something.

"No dadi... I have no idea.... She replied.

"Anyway, It's good if he stays outside.." She mumbled.

"Huhh? Did you say something..." Dadi asked.
"Nothing dadi......." She said and slapped herself for her stupidity.

"What is this?" Dadi asked as she saw the mark on her arms.

"It's nothing dadi..... I think I did excessive stretching....." She lied. She didn't want dadi to feel bad for his doing.

"Avni.... You should take care of yourself..." Dadi said and she nodded.

It was almost 11'o clock but Vikrant had still not came back. Sam had already went to sleep. Dadi and Avni were sitting in the living room when he came back.
