" Ahana? " Mom says

OK now I'm totally confused.

" Mom I'll take Avni in now" Neil tells Mom

" H-haan take her" Mom says stunned

Mom, Neela maa and Bebe hug me and then Neil takes me inside.

Neil closes the door and helps me sit down on the bed. I sit down and look up at him, and I know he knows I don't have to say anything before he starts explaining.

" A-Ahana was my fiancee" He breaths out.

Well OK...

I look at him waiting for him to continue, he continues...

" We were supposed to get married a year ago, months before I met you. But on the wedding day she went missing, no one knew whether she eloped or anything but we kept searching for her until we came to a conclusion that she eloped due to all the clues we found" he says

Neil should get to the point cause I still don't get why she's here...

" Well with what she told me today, it shows that she didn't elope" he adds

" So..what did she tell you? " I ask him

" She said that on the day of the wedding, she was kidnapped. She couldn't say much because of her bad condition, I'll ask her everything once she gets better" He tells me

" So.." I begin to say

" So what? " he asks me

" Um..Now Ahana is back, she gets better and then you get married?" I ask him nervously

" No! "

" B-But you love her right?, why wouldn't you?" I ask surprised

" I don't love her" he says amused and sits down beside me on the bed

" OK but you loved her?" I ask, my voice like a squeak

" what? No! Avni... I never loved her, our marriage was fixed, it. was. an .alliance" he explains to me slowly.

Oh

"Oh" I say

" Leave all this, it's time for you to take your medicines" he tells me

I scrunch my nose and he chuckles as he gets my medicine and a glass of water.

He gives me my drugs and all the tiredness seeps in, he carries me to the bed and puts me down and my eyes start closing. He starts moving to the couch but I hold his hand not wanting to let go and him thinking that I was asleep silently moves to the other side of the bed not wanting to wake me up and I pull him closer to me, his arms cage me by my waist and I move in closer to him, and sink my face into his neck feeling the warmth. After a few minutes the darkness falls over me...

***********

The sun rays wake me and I look to my side to look at Neil but he's not here. I sit on the bed and then I feel a sharp pain in my leg, then I remember I have a bullet wound on my leg, the second bullet wound on my body.

I take my crutches beside the bed and enter into the bathroom and I notice a chair has been put there, and I know it was Neil who put it there to help me when I'm bathing.

I come out of the bathroom wearing a dress because of my gun wound and then I wear my bracelet that I dropped during the fight with Aman.
