Virat who was all strong and confident till now, felt a sharp pain shooting up his chest. He died a little inside listening to his baby boy. His head was throbbing.

His eyes turned glassy and a tear managed to escape his orbs. He held Ved close to his heart, closing his eyes.

---------------------------------------------------------

They were returning home in the car after the flight. There was utter silence throughout the journey. Virat did not expect himself to put the guard down infront of Ved.

Anushka was looking outside the window and sitting in solitude. Virat looked at her. He was doubting his own decision. He knew he had a point, but it was easier said than done. Ved's absence was affecting him.

After reaching the room, both started doing their own work. It was as if they had nothing to talk about. The glue that held them together was missing. Virat constantly looked at her to speak something, but he didn't know what to say.

He got up from there and started packing his own bags. Anushka, who was sitting on the bed saw this. She was wondering what he was doing.

"What are you doing?" she asked spontaneously.

"Packing" he replied.

"I know that. But why?" She was confused.

"You know I'm on tour right? The next match is in Hyderabad, so I have to go" he replied monotonously as he packed.

She kept looking at him. Her mind was wandering in different places. She was feeling extremely down and out. She laid down on the bed.

"Are you not packing?" He asked after he finished.

"I'm not coming. I'll stay here." she answered without turning to his side. He gently held her shoulder and turned her around.

"Won't you feel lonely?" He asked calmly as he faced her. She instantly sat up.

"Wow. Thanks for asking. But does that even matter to you. You literally kept packing till I asked you, otherwise you would've left without telling me.You took the decision of telling Ved about the school, without consulting me-" she smirked sarcastically. He cut her off.

"-Anu don't bring this up again. I already told you that he overheard my conversation with Bunty And he just asked what it is. He was excited for it, that's why I agreed to it" He clarified.

"Right .Ved...got what he wants, You got what you want, What about me Virat?

Mein tho akeli reh gayi na?" She put forth woefully.

" I ended my contract there and came here to spend time with you guys. and you are touring around without letting me know where you are going. He is in a boarding, now why the hell did I come here. " She continued to pour out.

"I'm... here no?" He stuttered while saying that.

"Are you? Are you sure you are here? You literally don't care what I feel anymore. If this was your plan, you could've told me before hand. I wouldn't have come here. Such a disrespec-" She was disturbed and it was showing. But he was also in a similar situation.

"STOP IT! I know you are hurt, Uska ye matlab nhi ki kuch bhi bologi. I asked you right? Are you coming or not? Then you are the one who said you are not coming. " he raged. He couldn't bear the allegations against him.
