In Diaan's car,
  Diaan was driving as fast as he could. He wanted to reach his destination at the earliest possible. "Diaan, everything will be alright. Don't worry,"Fayza kept her right hand over his left one. Trying to comfort the worried soul a little bit. "Hope that only happens. Otherwise nobody knows what Azel is going to do. And I don't even want to think about Rehan bro. He will tear apart the world if someone tries to separate them,"I really prayed and hoped whatever Fayza said would be true.
   If not…then destruction is certain. I still can never forget the massive fight he had with his father years ago…because Re bro's father was against this relationship. If I were not an eyewitness of that scenario, I would have never believed that Re bro could also get this angry,"Diaan sighed…remembering the events of that day.
—----Flashback of 7 years ago,
   **(Apparently Riley Tyler, father of Rehan, was not happy when he got to know the relationship of his son and Azel. His son was sick…he used to forget things, places, important information..and sometimes people as well. Rehan's condition was not normal. And being a father, Mr. Tyler didn't want to drag Azel in such a mess. He had lost his daughter…even before she came into this world. If she were here, then she must have been the same age as Azel. When Mr. Tyler first saw Azel at Tune and Hrew's wedding, he didn't know why but he felt so connected with the bubbly girl. Maybe it was because of her age or nature. But he adored the sweet girl just like he would have adored if his daughter would have been with him.
   But after learning about their relationship, Mr. Tyler wanted to save both the kids from the future damage. He was scared of Rehan's worsening condition…what if one day, Rehan forgot Azel..then? He was well aware of the fact that Azel was a very sensitive girl…and in no way, she would be able to handle such a huge blow. After all, she loved his son very much. The love she had for Rehan was evident in her eyes. She was too young to handle so many complications in her life. And Rehan…he loved Azel way too much. But Riley knew if one day Andrew got to know about the mental health of Rehan…he would never agree to their relationship. Andrew would never let Rehan even go near Azel's shadow. And if Andrew behaved like that, still Riley would not be able to blame Andrew. Which father would want their daughter to get involved with such a person whose future is uncertain…who would remember her in the future or not was not even sure. Nobody would want that. And if really such a thing happened, then Riley didn't even have the courage to think what will happen to Rehan. Hence Riley took that decision even when he knew he, himself, was trying to snatch the only happiness his son had found after so many years…in the form of Azel.)**
   Diaan's POV:
Since the very first Re bro loved Azel very much…always caring for her happiness and comfort. And Azel would always get happy even with small gestures from him. One day, Re bro took me to his house, to get to know about Azel…like what she liked or disliked. What made her happy and what not?
In return for the information, he promised me that he would teach me how to ride a bike. And I, being a bike lover…got bribed by him easily.
  We were in his room, I was telling him things he needed to know regarding her. While he was noting down everything in his diary not wanting to forget anything. At that moment, Riley uncle barged in his room.
   Maybe uncle didn't notice me or something…both Re bro and I were startled at the sudden intrusion. "Hey, Dad. What brings you here? You could have called me. I would have come to you,"Re bro stood up from his place. I did the same. "And I wanted you to meet someone,"Re bro smiled widely, referring to me. He gestured to me to come in front of uncle as he always loved kids. With a big smile I took a step forward to greet uncle as well, when he threw a passport and a plane ticket on the bed where bro was standing.
   Both of us became confused at his cold and distanced behavior. I didn't get to meet with uncle much…but the few times we had an interaction, he seemed so sweet and gentle to me. But that day he seemed totally strange from his usual self. "What are these for, Dad?"Bro asked him looking towards the passport with confused eyes.
    "These are your passport and flight ticket. The flight is tomorrow at 3:30 am. You will be flying to Canada,"Uncle said, least bothered about the fact that he was informing bro about the flight he was supposed to board within some hours.
   "Canada? Why so suddenly?"Re bro asked…not understanding a thing going on with him. "Because I said so. Do you have any problems?"Uncle's voice was now agitated as if he was keeping his anger at bay. Re bro was surprised hearing him,"Dad, is..is everything alright? Why are you behaving so differently? Is it…something I did? I mean did I make any mistake? I…I don't remember exactly what I did…but I really very sorry if you got hurt by any of my actions,"he apologized genuinely…not even knowing that he was not at fault.
   Uncle's eyes softened…for a minute or two…before it hardened once again,"Yes, it's something you did…which I didn't like. And to mend your mistake you will be going to Canada." Rehan bro looked at uncle with helplessness,"Dad, I'm really very sorry for whatever I did that hurt you. I would never repeat that mistake,"poor bro didn't even know what he actually did to get such a kind of punishment.
   "That's why, I'm sending you overseas, so that you don't repeat your mistake ever,"but uncle kept on repeating the same thing…again and again. "Dad, I cannot go there now. My exams are round the corner…and if I go to Canada and could not do well in the exams, then my whole year would be a loss. Okay, once my exams are finished I will go there and have a quick visit of whatever you want me to,"Bro tried to reason with his father who raised his one eyebrow,"Didn't you hear me, Re? I said you are going tomorrow…means tomorrow. No more discussions about this. And I have made arrangements for you to complete your studies from the University of Toronto…one of the best universities there. Don't worry, you would not have to suffer from a year loss…as they are in the middle of their third year, so you would easily be able to catch up with them. I have even talked with V.C of….."
   "What? What are you saying, Dad? How…how can you take such a big decision in my life…without even telling me?"Re bro almost yelled…in shock. "The same way, you can take decisions regarding your life,"Uncle shrugged as if it was not even a matter for him to bother. Re bro opened his mouth…but closed it immediately. Taking a few deep breaths, he once again opened his mouth,"I'm not going to Canada or anywhere else in the world…not now…not ever. I'm going to complete my studies staying here at London from my current university,"his voice firm.
   "Re, don't forget that I'm your father. You cannot defy me like this,"uncle grumbled in anger…glaring at bro. Re bro also looked at uncle with determined eyes,"And I'm also your son. You can't take the decisions of my life without even letting me know. I'm not a kid now. I can make my own decisions…I have every right to do so." Uncle let out a humorless chuckle,"Yeah, just like you have chosen a life partner for yourself. That too who? A kid…like Azel? Seriously Rehan, I had better expectations from you. That girl is still so immature…and clumsy."
   "Dad, stop,"Re bro tried to interrupt uncle from all the negative things he was talking about Azel. But maybe uncle was not in a mood to listen to anyone, as he continued,"How can you expect her to handle you, when she cannot even take care of herself? She still lives in her dreamy world…thinking everything in life is sunshines and rainbows. She is nothing but an overdramatic brat who thinks…."
   "I SAID STOP,"Re bro yelled, pushing the table lamp kept on the side table. His eyes turned red…fingers were curled into fists…he was literally shaking in anger,"NOT ANOTHER WORD, DAD,"he gritted his teeth. Both uncle and I were astonished beyond imagination…who would have thought behind the fun loving Rehan, such an angry man was hidden.
   "How much do you even know her for you to say such kind of words regarding her? Yeah, I love her…and I'm proud to say that I love someone who is no less than an angel in my life. She is not immature..she is innocent. And I love her innocence…at least in this world which is filled with fake people…there are only a few good hearted people. And I got the chance to be with a pure soul like her. It's my fortune. She might be a kid…but by heart and mind, she is much more grown up than some judgemental people around us,"Re bro taunted his father indirectly. Mr. Tyler gasped hearing him.
  "And for your kind information, she takes the utmost care of me. And she doesn't need to care for herself…I'm there for that. If needed I will take care of both of us. She is not over dramatic…she just cannot be insensitive or stone hearted like others. Because she has a heart of gold. And if she is the reason you want to send me away…then I'm really sorry, Dad I'm not going anywhere,"Re bro took the passport and the ticket before tearing both of those.
   "What the hell did you do, Rehan?"Uncle strode towards him…and placed a hard slap on his face. I was totally frozen on my spot…not having any clue of what I should do. But there Re bro, didn't even flinch. Instead he started laughing…laughing like a mad man,"Even if you slap a hundred times more…my statement would still not change…neither my actions. I love her…and I will love her till my last breath. No-one, Dad…I quote no-one can ever separate her from me." There was a fire in his eyes…which seemed so destructive…so dangerous.
   "I would never accept that girl as my family,"Uncle announced, making Re bro look at him in disbelief. But soon he covered it up,"Okay, fine…then suit yourself. But I would not have a family which would not include her in it." "Re, I'm warning you for the last time…stay away from her. If you want her safe and happy. Don't underestimate my power or capability."
    "Try laying a finger on her, Dad. And I promise I will burn down this entire empire of yours. If she gets even a single scratch or a single tear drops down her eyes because of you, I would also not back down from showing you what I, Rehan, can do. Hope you do know what I'm capable of doing even without your surname?
   Dad, I'm sorry for behaving like this with you. I never wanted to do so. You are my father and I love you very much. But…she is my everything, Dad…and no one would get away if they ever think of hurting my Life,"saying Re bro kicked the glass table set in the middle of his room…it fell down before shattering into pieces,"You see, Dad? I'm just like these glass shards…without her. Broken, scattered and in so many pieces that it's impossible to repair it back once again. It's she…who gives me the reason to live. It's she…for whom your son is breathing everyday. And you want to take her away from me?
   It will be better if you just point your gun at me and shoot me right at my head rather than wanting to kill me every single second by keeping me away from her. I swear, Dad…I will die if…if I ever lose her. My life will be meaningless…so will I. I need her in my life to keep functioning everyday, Dad. I love her insanely…yet only her love keeps me sane. And I will do anything and everything in my power to always protect her. Always remember, thinking of hurting her in any way means hurting me, your own son,"with that saying, Re bro stormed out of his room.
   ….Flashback ends…..
  That day, I saw another version of Rehan Tyler…who is crazily in love with his Wild cat. And if anyone ever really tried to separate them, a disastrous war would take place for sure.
    "Diaan, I know Rehan, he is a calm person. He will handle things his way…I'm sure. Moreover, once Mr. Andrew Edward will understand that through treatment and medications Rehan's treatment could be kept at bay. And it would not be a problem in the future as long as…his past doesn't get triggered anyhow,"Fayza again added, encouraging me for the positive things. I nodded my head at her. At that time, a question hit my mind. She said, she knew Re bro? "Wait, how did you know him? How did you know so much about him?"I could not help but raise my brow at her…looking at her suspiciously.
   It was such a confidential matter. Except for a few of us…nobody had a clue about the health condition of Re bro. In fact, Arne also didn't know the whole problem…he only knew that Re bro often forgets things. But why? He never asked us…nor we told him. Then how did she get to know this?
   "I…I…umm…I knew…."she started stuttering as if I asked her the most difficult question. "Moreover, I never told you about my family. Then how did you know who my uncle is? You just got to know about Azel awhile ago…so how did you get to know so much about us?" I could not help but bombard her with my doubts. How and why did she know so much about us? The much she had told me about herself, I vividly remember her saying that it was her first time visiting the UK. It all just didn't make sense…not anyhow.
   "Fayza, I asked you something?"Seeing how she was sitting like a statue with her mouth closed, I once again asked her…in my serious voice. "Diaan, I…you had mentioned to me…one day while…we…we were talking,"she fumbled nervously…just confirming my doubts. "Stop lying to my face. I never told you anything about my family…neither did you tell me about yours. All the talks we had were regarding ourselves only. Moreover, why would I discuss my sister's personal life with a stranger?"I hissed at her…I was now getting angry with her for keeping these many secrets with me. She was here…for some purpose. And I was sure about it till now. But I, being a pawn in some of her sick games, was what made me feel enraged. Is this why she threw me out of her life that day…just like a used tissue paper? Because I was no longer needed or maybe I was of no use to her?
   "St…stranger? Am I a stranger to you?"She shot back at me…hurt and anger both were clearly heard in her voice. "Is there a reason for you not to? How much do I even know you?"I countered…rendering her speechless for a minute. She was about to say something when my phone started ringing again. It was Arne, calling.
   Sparing her a last glance I received the call,"Hello, Diaan. Uncle has just reversed his car. I don't know exactly what happened suddenly. But I think he is going back to Edward mansion. And I'm exactly behind him. So, I'm sharing my location with you. Come fast,"he said in one go.
   "Okay, bud. And did you get in contact with any of them?"I asked him, hoping at least he would have been able to know where they were or informed them about the upcoming danger. "No, man. Both of their phones are switched off. I just hope nothing would go wrong…not anymore,"he sighed, making me sigh too. Things were really out of control…and not knowing what more the future holds, was not helping either.

Precap:
   Rehan placed Azel's weak body softly on the bed. "Take rest, my love. I will come here again later at night. Till then grab some sleep and…no walking around, okay? You already hurt your foot?"He instructed her while tucking her under the duvet.
   Azel looked at him with her half open eyes…she was feeling so drowsy after taking the medicine for her allergy. She gave him her breathtaking smile and nodded. "I love you,"she said so softly…just in a mere whisper. Rehan's already crazy heart went crazier at her confession,"I love you too, my Life,"without a second's delay, he replied to her. This time…it was her heart which went insane hearing him. Her smile only widened more.
   She spread her arms for him to give him a goodbye hug. He leaned towards her, pressing her soft body against his. But he was careful enough to not put any kind of pressure on the fragile girl in his arms. Both of them closed their eyes…losing themselves on the land of paradise…their own paradise.
    They were busy in their Loveland…when suddenly with a harsh pull, Rehan was pulled away from Azel. "How dare you touch her, you Bastard?"Andrew growled at Rehan…and before anyone could comprehend or understand anything, a harsh punch was landed followed by many more. Yells, cries, beggings and shattering of things were only heard. But the sound that was not heard were of the innocent hearts that were broken in the process…without any fault. Because the hearts had committed a crime…a crime of falling in love.
