Ranveer's Point Of View:

i slowly stood up, my leg still hurt but i did not have a choice. i looked down Devika who looked calm and in deep thought.

"are you okay?", i asked as she immediately looked up as if pulled out from a dream.

"ye-yes.", she stammered and turned to notice the scientist.

"praise the lord! both of you are fine!", he said in happiness.

Devika smiled at him with a softness.

there is one thing we usually fail to notice, those in pain smile the brightest. i somehow knew that her heart ached due to a pain i was oblivious to.

she slowly her, flashing a grateful smile to the scientist.

"what is wrong with you? you look sad.", i asked as i finally sat back on the bed. i had no idea about the time because my watch was dead and so was my phone. all i knew was that the sun was going to set soon.

"does it matter?", Devika said in a numb voice.

"i think it does.", i said as i slowly stood up as she stood in front of the window which looked upon the trees all across the place.

"and why would it? i am merely your toy for enjoyment. that is it.", she said softly, her voice chocked.

it suddenly struck me.

exactly! why on earth was i bothering about what she thought?! why did i bother about her at all?

i soon received the answer to my questions as always,

'that is because you are not as cruel a person as your father.'

and that voice was of my heart which i pretended to not have.

i knew i was not a bad person, but there is no better way in this cruel world.

"you want to go out for a walk?", i asked softly. i was grateful to her saving me and i wanted to do something for her.

i did not know why.

Devika looked up at me startled.

"are you serious?", she blurted out in astonishment.

"i surely am. i think we need a break.", i said lending a hand to her. she slowly placed her hand on mine as i led her out.

our host, Mr.scientist, was asleep on his armchair with a book. we slowly walked out in the arriving dusk.

"Ranveer, why are you doing this?", she asked as we sat in front of the house, on the stairs.

"just like that. you don't like the wind?", i asked sounding a little less harsh, hopefully.

"i do.", she said softly looking up at the orange sky through the trees.

"this is the kind place i always wanted to be in. isolation.", Devika whispered as suddenly a question arouse within me

"tell me your story.", i said looking straight into her eyes.

she immediately looked away from mine.

"why do you need to know? i am pretty ordinary.", she said, now looking down.

"i doubt. everyone has a story some tragic, some comic and some epics. your maybe a little less interesting but it is one. tell me about yourself.", i said as i kept on looking at her.

for the first time i was looking not at her pretty face or irresistible personality. i was looking at the beautiful person inside her.

i tortured her but she did not stop before helping me to get out of problems. she tended me when i had gave her scars which had not yet healed. she was not what she showed, she was much more.

she said Randhir was her boyfriend but she refused to return to him when she could easily have. she was hiding secrets i needed to know.

now, it was turn for her secrets to be revealed.
