Blood ties rebound

Chapter: 17( Road to redemption)

Days turned into weeks, Ruhi adhering to Viren's rules with a mix of frustration and determination. No phone, no friends, just studies and recovery filled her days.

Nalini, Maa, watched over her with a hawk's eye, concern etched on her gentle face.

"Ruhi, beta, are you okay? You seem lost in thought," Nalini asked, her voice soft.

Ruhi sighed, her shoulders sagging.

"Maa, I'm trying. But Bhaiya's anger... it's hard to bear. I feel like I've let everyone down."

Nalini's expression softened, her eyes filled with empathy.

"Viren loves you, Ruhi. He's worried, that's all. He wants to protect you from harm."

Ruhi nodded, understanding.

"I know, Maa. But it's hard to see him like this. He's always been my rock."

Nalini's hands enveloped Ruhi's.

"Give him time, beta. He'll come around. You're taking steps towards redemption. That's all that matters."

Akshara visited, bringing warmth to Ruhi's isolated world.

"Ruhi, Manyu jiju wants you to focus on recovery. No stress, okay? Your health comes first," Akshara said, her voice firm.

Ruhi smiled weakly.

"Didi, I'm trying. But it's hard. I feel so alone."

Akshara's expression softened.

"You're not alone, Ruhi. We're all here for you. Manyu jiju, Viren, Maa... we all love you."

Viren's stern demeanor began to soften, seeing Ruhi's efforts. He noticed her dedication to studies, her determination to recover.

One evening, as Ruhi studied, Viren entered her room, his expression less stern.

"Ruhi, how's your leg?" Viren asked, his voice gentler.

Ruhi looked up, her eyes sparkling.

"Bhaiya, it's healing. Manyu jiju says I'll be fine in no time."

Viren nodded, his eyes crinkling.

"Good. I've arranged a tutor for your studies. You'll catch up."

Ruhi's eyes widened.

"Bhaiya, thank you! I won't disappoint you again."

Viren's expression hinted at a smile.

"Let's focus on your future, Ruhi. No more mistakes. We'll get through this together."

Ruhi's determination grew.

Would she prove herself to Viren?

Or would old habits resurface?

Meanwhile, Aditya's arrest sparked controversy. His influential family fought for his release, but Pradyuman stood firm.

"Justice won't be compromised," Pradyuman declared.

As Ruhi walked the path of redemption, would she confront her past?

Or would Aditya's fate remain a distant warning?

The road to redemption was long and arduous, but Ruhi was ready to face it head-on.
