Veer and Aditi stood on the deserted road, the air heavy with silence.
She stared at him, her eyes wide with disbelief and confusion.
He felt her gaze, it was like a thousand questions tangled together, begging for answers.
Just hours ago, they had been laughing, sharing dreams of the future. But now, everything felt shattered.
He had killed a man. It was a fierce encounter, one that had changed everything.
The image of that moment played in Aditi's mind like a haunting nightmare.
Veer, the man she loved, had become a stranger suddenly.
She wished this was a dream, that she would wake up any moment and everything would be back to normal.
But it wasn’t. It was real, and the weight of that truth left her breathless.
Her heart raced as she tried to process the situation.
aditi : Why did you do it, Veer?
her voice trembled. The words felt sharp, painful. Each syllable was like a cut.
She wanted to scream, to cry, but all she could manage was a shaky breath.
He took a step towards her, his arms reaching out instinctively.
veer : Aditi, please, I—
But she raised her palm, stopping him.
aditi : Don’t! Just don’t touch me.
The rejection hit him like a slap. It wasn’t just the shout; it was the fear in her eyes that burned him deeper than any physical pain.
He felt like a monster, How could he have hurt her? In his mind, he replayed the events leading to the killing, all he could see was the horror he brought into their lives.
The street felt lonely, the empty road echoing their silence. It was as if the world had stopped for them. Neither could fathom what to say next.
Suddenly everything started to black out in front of her eyes, he immediately held her and she got unconscious in his arms.
veer : aditi..aditi..!!!!
he immediately took her in his arms and took her home.
*********************************
Doctor was checking her...everyone was around her.
dadi : veer yeh sab kaise hua..?
veer : woh...woh dadi exams aa rahi hai aur stress bohot ho raha tha usse, thik se khaya nahi hoga isiliye behosh ho gayi aur kuch nahi...
he didn't want to lie but he can't disclose the truth too.
Siddharth : doctor is everything fine?
doctor : she's fine, her pulse was low, I have gave sedatives, she'll be fine in some hours.
veer : thankyou doctor.
dadi : take care of her, main khane ki taiyari karwati hu.
he nodded.
****************************
Siddharth : dekha jiss baat ka darr tha wahi hua, isiliye hum pehle se keh rahe the bata de usse sach, bata diya hota toh aaj yeh nahi hota.
veer : mujhe nahi pata the yeh sach aise saamne aayega, I need to tell her whole truth.
akshat : iss baar sabkuch bata dena, zyada chacha choudhary banne ki zarurat nahi hai, aur sid tujhe bhi rai dete hai pehle hi bata de yeh sa ananya ko.
sid : aditi ki haalat dekh kar lagta hai bata dena chahiye.
dhruv : log sahi kehte hai thokar lagne se hi insaan sudharta hai.
They glared him.
akshat : kya hua veer?
veer : aaj pehli baar mujhe aditi se ke saamne jaane se bhi darr lag raha hai, pata nahi kaise react karegi, gussa hogi ya voilent hogi, kahi peechli baar ki tarah ghar chod kar na chali jaaye, ya phir yeh sab...
they giggled.
veer : why are you guys laughing.
dhruv : aaj tak sirf suna tha aaj example ke saath dekh liya, patni ke saamne kisi ki nahi chalti, minto mein sabki jaan lene wala apni patni ke saamne jaane se darr raha hai.
veer : ofcourse, I hope you guys don't find my ashes, jab woh emotional hoti hai ya naraz hoti hai toh sambhal sakta hu lekin jab madam devi maa ka roop dharan karti hai na tab toh bhagwan hi raksha kare.
akshat : haa patni ke saame bhagwan ki nahi chalti, hum toh phir bhi insaan hai.
they all chuckled.
dhruv : meet you tomoorow, agar zinda raha toh.
he glared at him.
dhruv : mujhe ghurna bandh kar biwi nahi hu main teri.
veer : ab pata chala ladkiyan atmahatya kyu kar kar leti hai teri girlfriend banne se pehle.
dhruv : no personal comments bye..!!!
they chuckled.
******************************
Veer was shivering outside their room, scared to go inside.
He took a deep breath and went inside, he saw her sitting on the bed with zero expressions.
He slowly sat beside her, first time he was thinking how to talk.
veer : ad..aditi...
she looked at him, he felt like his heart will come out.
veer : aditi please ek baar meri baat sunn lo bacccha, don't come on any conclusion, just give me one chance to explain.
she nodded, he sighed in relief.
He held her hand.
veer : baccha now listen to me very carefully, its truth that we are one of the biggest mafia group of India, but we never killed any innocent, we always fought for truth and innocence, the person I killed today he used to smuggle girls into different countries, involved in drug dealings and many more.
she looked at him.
veer : see baccha I know you must be thinking ki jaan lene ka haq sirf bhagwan ka hota hai aur saza dene ka haq sirf kanoon ka, par zindagi sirf ussi par nahi chalti, kuch logo ka insaaf waise ho karna padta hai jaise unhe samajh mein aata hai, aaj jisse maara uski wajah se bohot si ladkiyan azad ho kar apne ghar safely pohochi hai baccha, warna aaj woh kisi dusre desh mein kisi darinde ke kaid mein ho kar marne ki bheeg maang rahi hoti.
she gulped.
Veer : baccha tumhari kasam kha kar kehta hu maine kabhi kisi masoom ki jaan nahi li, I know yeh baat mujhe tumhe pehle hi bata deni chahiye aur chupane ka mera koi irada bhi nahi tha, bass main tumhe inn sab se durr rakhna chahta tha, I didn't wanted you to be in stress all the time, bass isiliye chupaya.
Aditi : answer one thing, did you kill papa..??
Her question made him off guard...!!!
