Author's pov:

Currently everyone are in the train ,leaving back to their homes..

Oddly everyone were silent in their own thoughts..
Aranya having enough of this silence, excused herself and came out for some air..

As she was in her deep thoughts looking out holding the rods near the door, letting her hair fly in all the directions possible, having a small smile.. closing her eyes feeling all the unsaid things from the mother nature ..
Have you ever felt this.. as if the nature talking with you... Letting her all frustration and happiness to you.. this is what aranya do whenever she is bored, or having a big day...

Her small moment got cut when
"Kya hua beta? Why u are here? (What's wrong?)" Nirmala asked slowly, trying not to scare her
"Arey aunty aap, kuch nahi just wanted to have some air.. aap batayiye aap kyu aye bahar (nothing much just wanted to have some air.. you tell me why did u come out)" she asked facing nirmala fully
"Hmm.. beta I know I couldn't able to understand Arun much.. being a mother I shouldn't tell this but.. kya karu Kam ke chakkar me mene apana beta kodiya (what should I do, cuz of work I lost my son)" nirmala said while looking down

Aranya held her hands and made her look forward..
"I know aunty aap ke pass aap ka reasons hoga.. and I totally understand.. uss din mene jadha overreact kardiya.. I should've talk with you slowly.. par aunty the point is evident now, that in ur absence something really happened which triggers him till date.. I'll find that cause and never let him feel that back again (you have ur own reasons.... That day I over reacted)" aranya said with a determined voice
"Uthna pyar karti ho?(You love him that much?)"
"Aap soch bhe nahi sakte hai aunty itha kartihu (u can't even imagine aunty, that much I love him)" she said with loving eyes

Nirmala pulled aranya little down and kissed her crown..
"Jiti raho beta... I'm lucky to have u as my bahu (stay blessed..)"
Aranya blushed at the name of bahu

"Par aunty.. why did u got soo shocked when I called him nihan?" Confusion written on her face
"Beta can u tell me from when you are  calling him that.." nirmala asked ignoring her question
"Maybe around a month or so.. I don't remember but why does it consent u aunty.. what's wrong?" Asked still confused
"Can u tell me the first time u called him what was his reaction"
"Hmm.. the day we booked tickets for us, I found out his name is Arun nihan.. I casually asked him if I could call that.. at first he was kinda shocked and sad??.. I don't know.. but eventually he said ok and I started calling him nhi from that day.. now can u plz tell me why are u asking all these" little pissed as her's questions is being ignored
Nirmala answered shortly after taking a break
"He doesn't allow anyone call him by that name anymore"
"What do u mean aunty, sida sida bataiye na (tell me straight forwardly)" *totally confused*
"He has bad memories with that name bacha.. he used to have a frd who used to call him by that name.." she paused taking deep breath
"Used to matlab, what happened to them?"
"His childhood frd.. they were inseparable, it's like Arun was lively with only him.. but God took the only happiness from his life too.. he was soo divested beta .. he started to close himself and we just ignored him" tears flowing from her eyes
Aranya was tongue tied.. she didn't knew what to say

Aranya's pov:

Why God... What did he even do to u... I swear I'll not let you win now.. he was alone then but not anymore.. I'm here for him now and that's enough to turn world upside down..

"I'm sorry aunty excuse me" I said and went I don't know where.. but right now I don't want anyone see me.. after what felt like infinity, I ended up near the last bogi, which was empty..
I sat near a window and sighed
"Why do I feel this.. something like someone squishing my heart.. I can't bare to see him like this, like all happy and normal from outside but broken from inside... When did u become soo important to me nihan .. I always ask this question to myself, but in return I never got any answer... But I won't mind if I don't get this answer... All I know is YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING NOW.. and I'm ready to fight against the whole world for you" as I was in deep thoughts, my eyes were full with tears ... I don't know when but they fell from my eyes wetting my own cheeks..
