It's You & Me

Chapter 37

Rathi P.O.V

I came home in 3 days. Akash and lakshmi are together and happy. After that incident happened in hospital my point of view on A.K have changed. On that day he came in and locked the room inside. "A.K what are you doing?" I asked. He came near me and sat on my bed. He slightly touched my wound. " Ah.. its paining." I said. "Sorry." His eyes filled with tears. " A.K are you crying?" I asked. "No who said?" He said​. " No A.K you are crying." I said. " Ammu you can't understand me. I have tried a lot to express my love to you, but i failed. You know what ammu? When i got that case i don't know that it is your father. But the day when i first met you in the hospital i got some different feeling inside me. I followed you where ever you went. When you gave complaint against that child kidnapper i was happy but i feared it may cause problem to you. So i didn't file your statement." He said. I have no words to tell. " Rathi i want to tell you something." He said. Oh no is he going to?? I was thinking. He stood up and went near the window. " I was handling an important case. It was against a great business man. He was selling drugs to college students. Many of them are addicted to that drugs. Most are women. My sister was also studying in that college." He said. " What??" I asked. " Yes rathi. I handled this case only for her. She helped me with all information i needed. I followed her instructions. After 5 months perfect planning i finished that case successfully with the help of my sister and my best friend aditya." He said. " Aditya? " I asked. " Yes rathi. He is my best friend. That college was under that businessman​ control, his name is Prathab. One day i got call from college that my sister is serious and admitted in hospital. I ran to hospital and i came to know that she is drugged and also she has many wounds in her body. I can't see my sister in this stage. I lost my patience and i went straight to that prathab to kill him. But adhitya stopped me. After that drug effect reduced in my sister's body doctor started their operation. The operation was successful but my sister didn't wake up. Doctors gave one week time. If she didn't wake up in one week then we will permanently lose her. I felt soulless. I took my bike and was driving like a mad man. Suddenly my bike stopped at one place. I was walking randomly. I didn't eat so i can't walk and i fell on the road. After sometime i woke up. It was dark around me. My hunger increased. I searched for food. At that time i saw that." He said. " What you saw?" He breathed deeply " Maragadha lingam." He said. " It was shining like anything. I was there for one month. I felt peaceful in there. I returned home after one month​. My sister got cured but i lost my friend." He said. " What?" I asked. " Yes rathi that prathab killed my adhi to take revenge on me. First time some one kidnapped you right? It was done by your father. But the second time it was him. Instead of my sister they kidnapped you. I thought they found that i loved you. But not. I got relieved." He said. I didn't reply to him. " Now he found you. You arranged fake men to threaten lakshmi but one of then is his men. He thought lakshmi​ is you." He said. " What are you telling? How do you know all this?" I asked. " I know everything about you rathi. You are everything to me. I can't lose you. You have to be happy​. Within​ three days i am going to get back my work. If really believe me cone with me rathi. I will never leave you. I will protect you with all my love. At last i need to tell you one thing." He said. I was blinking  at him. " I LOVE YOU" he said and went. I was speechless. My eye filled with tears. He left the room and i started to cry. " I love​ you too A.K, i love you too. " I said and cried a lot.
