"Ab batao who is he?" Umer asked gently

"The one who tried to rape me!" Minaheel answered with fat tears rolling down her cheeks

Umer's breath hitched, he remembered him, he never saw Shehroze but he has heard about him through Ibrahim the day he was in hospital and a 15-16 years girl came to hospital in brutal state, ibrahim informed him that it was Shehroze second attempt. Umer's mind reeled as he connected the dots - he had never thought that the first attempt could have been Minaheel.

"Wo hotel ke bahar thaira hai umer, mai last time bach gayi thi bhaiya ne bacha liya tha mujhe, iss baar bhaiya nahi hai yaha wo mujhe nahi chordega wo mujhe maardega!" She blabber, her eyes wild with fear.

"Aise kaise kuch karega, nazar utha kar bhi dikhaye tumari taraf khaal kheench lunga uski, hotel ke bahar thaira hai na chalo mere sath, tumare saamne uski jaan nahi li toh naam badal dena!" Umer stood up, his fists clenched, ready to punch the abuser

"Nahi nahi mujhe nahi jana kahi, tum bhi kuch nahi karoge!" Minaheel pulled him back.

Umer took a pause he was not sure whether to punch that guy on his guts, or to be with Minaheel and protect her from her fears

Slowly, he sat back down beside her, his phone already in hand. He typed out a quick text to Ahaan.

"Bhaiya security ko high alert par rakhein,  unse kahiye ki koi bhi suspicious activity dikhi toh aapko ya mujhe inform karein!" Umer texted Ahaan

"Kya hua? Is everything alright?" Ahaan texted him back, his concern was evident.

"Minaheel isn't safe, someone is following her and he is infront of gate, take care of it please!"

"Don't worry, be with her!"

As Minaheel sniffled beside him, Umer turned his attention to her

"Nahi jaraha kahi bhi, yahi hu, pareshan mat ho bhaiya dekh lenge security ko, koi ander nahi aayega, koi tumara kuch nahi bigaad sakta!"

"Tumhara kal ka kuch plan hai?" She asked sniffing.

"Kuch nahi hai tumhare sath hi hu don't worry!" Umer rubbed her palm.

"Tum puchte the na mai tumhe dost kehti hu par sab share kyu nahi karti!" Minaheel muttered

Umer nodded, his eyes encouraging her to open up.

"Meri ek best friend thi school time se, jaise zaruu aur fariha hai meri bhi waisi hi ek best friend thi, mai uske sath sab share karti thi, use shehroze pasand tha aur Shehroze ko mai, fir suddenly mai meri best friend ki dushman ban gayi, ek party me maine sneak out karliya tha uske kehne par mujhe laga hum just chill karenge, par uske kuch aur plans the, usne mujhe Shehroze ke sath trap kardiya, so that....!" Minaheel's voice choked off, and Umer's hands instinctively went to her back, rubbing gentle circles to calm her down.

"Shhhh calm down!"

"Uss raat bhaiya time par aagaye the unhone mujhe bacha liya, par fir bhi unke aane tak jo kuch hua mai wo kabhi bhool nahi paayi, baba ko jab pata chala unhe heart attack aagaya, iss Shehroze ne mera sab kuch khraab kardiya, kuch saal ki jail ke baad wo bhaag gaya aur ab fir meri life me wapis aagaya!" Minaheel's body shook with sobs

"Buss ro mat tabiyat waqayi khraab hojaegi, I promise tum jab tak hamare sath ho mai uska saaya bhi tum par padne nahi dunga, mujhpar trust nahi karti ho to bhaiya par karlo tum bhaiya ko bada bhai maanti ho na wo apne bhen bhai ki hifazat badi shidaat se karte hai!" Umer said calmly

"Kisne kehdiya ki mai tum par trust nahi karti? Trust nahi karti to yeh sab sunati kya" She asked wiping her tears.

"Poora ahle khana (family) kehta hai tumara ki tum mujh trust nahi karti!" Umer scoffed
