Anupama stood up and started feeling dizzy again just when Anuj playfully came from behind and lifted her in his arms when similar visuals from her bitter past memories resurfaced and she reacted violently screaming for help...

LEAVVVEE...JUST LEAVEE MEEEE....CHHHODDOOO...

SHE started crying out for help and was struggling to get out of his hold..she wasn't in her sane mind

Anuj was shocked witnessing this he immediately tried to calm her down...

An...anuuu...anu...ek..ek second utar rha hu ...Anu...it's me... anujj...look at me... anuu..

She couldn't see him ..it seemed like she was lost in another world in some other memory...a bitter past memory.

Anuj started panicking. and tried to calm her down as it was impossible to stand like this with her putting in so much force

He sat on the sofa and held her tightly..hugging her

-anupama ..dekho mujhe,iam Anuj kapadiya..iam ur friend naa...anupamaaa...listen plz..vo log nhi hai yha ... it's just u and me...no one else...u are safe here

Anupama calmed down a bit sweating profusely and sobbing inconsolably

-they won't come again na? She asked sobbing

No anupama they won't come ..i am there to protect u ... don't worry

He caressed her patting her slowly to sleep

She mumbled

Haat...haath mat lagaana mujhe...no
.. don't...just don't...no...nooooo....

She screamed and turned restless again

Leave me pleassee...leave mee...I beg of u ..plzz.

He shook her hard ,himself on the verge of crying seeing her state

ANUPAMAAA KAPADIYA..STOP IT...U ARE ALRIGHT.U ARE SAFE.THERE'S NO ONE AROUND JUST LOOK AROUND FOR GOD'S SAKE..!!

anupama came to her senses and looked around..she ingested all the mess she created a while ago..and looked at him with guilty eyes..
S .sor...sorryy.. iam soryyy ...

Anu ..come to mee ...he moved towards her..

She backed off immediately
No...
-
..
She ran towards her room in a shocked state

SORRY ANUPAMAA...I COULDN'T BE ON TIME THAT DAY... IT'S MY FAULT ...ALL THIS PAIN OF URS..I CAN'T SEE U LIKE THIS MY LOVE...SORRYYY....I FAILED U...
Anuj sobbed bitterly putting his head on sofa while sitting on the floor

THE DAY:

ANUPAMA HAD COME TO A CELEBRATION CEREMONY OF HER COLLEGE WHICH WAS MANDATORY FOR ALL THE STUDENTS TO ATTEND AND IN PROPER DRESS CODE WHICH INCLUDED SHIRT AND PANT

Anupama wasn't really comfortable abt the idea of wearing it as she hadn't ever worn anything apart from ghagra and salwar ..
But strict orders couldn't be defied so she reached the venue in the code where unknown to her ..couple of boys spiked her drink ..

SHE STARTED FEELING DIZZY WHEN ONE OF THE BOY PICKED HER UP AND TOOK HER ASIDE INSIDE A BOOKED ROOM

The memory of the day sets the core of Anuj in fire that he failed her that day .. that being late could cost him so much..this lifetime trauma of his wife...he learnt a lesson good enough..NOT TO BE LATE AGAIN ANYMORE ANYHOW..

May be this was why she got triggered now..sorryy anuu...sorry for resurfacing it ...

THE vile man inside took advantage of her unconsciousness nd touched her inappropriately .. anupama could feel everything she could feel her skin burn with every line the man crossed. Her skin pricked with every touch of his and bleeded out her dignity little by little which was her most priced possession..she had never felt this helpless in life... neither when her father left her in that very young age nor when her mother fixed her marriage against her will...but today..she lost her strength to face herself again..she couldn't save her dignity
..shame on you anupama ...shame on u..her conscience cried out loud as the man set a camera positioning it towards her

He approached towards her and all anupama could do was just lie there and struggle her best to fight...but she couldn't move ...her mind was clouded in the effect of the intoxication..she just called out her kanhajii..

Anupama pov:

U don't know what it feels like ..to wait for losing ur dignity..ur pride.. lying completely helpless..I swear i would have happily layed infront of a carnivore to be eaten alive rather than waiting for my wrath here like this on this bed..kanhaji..was i this bad? I don't remember having hurt an insect too..then why ??why ?..why did u give me these hands when u had to make me face this situation where i cannot lift a finger to save myself..why these legs..when I can't kick the life out of this man..why kanhaji.. just take my body away..just put me on fire or bury me alive but plz kahnaji....but not here kanhaji.. I can't tolerate a moment here kanhaji..plz take me away..

The man proceeded towards her and started unbuttoning her shirt when anupama passed out due to extreme intolerance...she just couldn't...she lost there..she just lost there..
