Enveloped in the darkness, Kiara flinches back with his every advancing threatening steps.

something catches her darting gazes: An open door inviting her into its safety. She rises in a shot and sprints to the room, locking it behind, she feels her heart thumping rapidly and her lips part to inhale air.

Taking off the hathphools she thrashes them to the floor, her lips curl in disgust as every jewellery piece plunges down. She falls to her knees weeping, the realisation hits her hard that she has stepped into the real hell where no escape lies.

Lights embellished the house which is lit up lustrously in the storm's darkness failing to conceal the gloominess residing within the hearts. A sudden knock on the door grabs every single individual's attention. In a bridal lehenga, Nikita stands at the threshold giving her family a shock. Sakshi rushes to her and embraces her but on pulling back, her sight lands upon the smudged sindoor filling her maang and the mangalsutra.

" what is all this? did you marry?" The questions tear away the silence, enveloped in a fear which shadows over everyone, that they might lose her. Nikita nods in agreement looking at her mother, getting a gasp in response.

" Who? ABHAY??" Sakshi asks.

"No maa" she responds, stealing her eyes away.
