God was really testing him everyday in every way. He was fidgeting on the lift as it went up to his house.

'You better pay me back for all these tests' he grumbled to God in his mind.

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

He knocked on the door in a hurry. Anushka immediately opened it. Virat saw her face and realised how terrified and nervous she was. He didn't have time to ask , he immediately went near the bathroom.

He knocked on the door aggressively. He kept his ear near the door and he could hear the flowing water, which was probably the bathtub one. His knocks got harder.

"Kya hua Virat?" She asked as his actions became swift .

"Sounds like the bathtub is filling. VED! Open the door!" he said in a heavy voice.

Anushka was feeling extremely guilty for not handling the situation well. Tears ran down her cheeks, unwanted thoughts were hovering in her mind.

He pulled and twisted the door knob to open. But it wasn't opening. That was a strong door. In another pull, the knob came off altogether, but the door didn't open. Now they were left with nothing to open. He looked at Anushka who was sitting behind.

"Anu, don't cry bub. I'll open it. But why did he lock himself?" He asked as he tried to push the door.

"I...told him about..the baby" she stuttered in a low voice. Virat turned around in shock and anger . For a moment, she thought he would lash out at her. But he controlled himself.

"Anu...mana kiya tha na meine" he left a long painful sigh. His eyes expressed disappointment as he looked at her.

He went out and brought a metal rod. He hit the door multiple times, it looked like the joints were coming off. Then he gave a couple of kicks, the door was falling off, he immediately held it placed sideways.

Both of them hurried inside. Ved was sitting inside the filling bathtub with his arms hugging his legs and his head buried in between his knees. His body was shivering in cold and his light sobs were audible.

Virat ran in and carried him up from the water. Anushka brought a towel and gave it to him. He immediately wrapped Ved in the towel and hugged him tightly. His body was pale and cold.

His heartbreaking cries resumed as Virat hugged him. His pale arms snaked around Virat's neck and his innocent wailing felt as if he was complaining to Virat how his little world had fallen apart.

Virat took him to the bed and removed all his wet clothes and wrapped him in another warm towel . He dried his hair thoroughly and nursed him in his arms.

"Kya hua baba? Why did you do this. Don't do this again ok? Hum sabko dar diya" he made him understand.

"Baby..is gone, papa" he said with a little crack in his voice, his sobs got heavier. Virat felt a heaviness inside his chest.

He too wanted to cry like that. But he could not afford to do so, he tried his best to control his tears. Sometimes he felt how lucky they are. To be able to express freely is also a privilege.

"Baby is gone for now Vedy, the baby will come back..but it'll take time" Virat tried to console him.

Anushka proceeded to tell something, but Virat stopped her and shook his head , gesturing that he would handle this. She didn't want him to give another fake promise.
