ROHIT'S POV

I watched her sleep, even in her sleep she looked afraid restless.

Anger surges through my blood, how can that bastard break such an innocent sole.

I felt like dragging that bastard beating the shit out of him and make him apologize for everything he did to Neha.

After telling me everything she was reluctant to leave, but I had refused and forced her to live here, because it was safer, and for some odd reason I didn't want her to leave.

My fingers itch to touch her cheek, but I draw my hand back, giving her a last look, I walked out of her room

I have to help her, because something in me desperately want her to fight back all her fear.

But how that was the question.. She is mentally and physically fragile.. mentally I know Karan helping her, but that was not enough.

I smirk when I finally found a solution.

It was six in the morning, I got ready and knocked on NEHA'S door, before entering she was still in sleep.

"Come on wake up!!" I said shaking her, startled she sat up straight and started to search her surroundings.

I instantly regret waking her like that "Hey hey..!! It just me Neha relax.. Look everything is fine" I said she stare at me for few seconds, before dropping her eyes.

Get it!" I said dropping a bag on her lap, she frown.

" No question, just get ready and meet me in 10 minutes " I said walking out.

10 minutes later she walked out
" Rohit why am I wearing workout clothes?!" She asked.

" Because I going to train you" I said making her step back, she looked at me wide eyes.. She raised her hands shielding her body.

"Hey... Neha.. Relax" I said when I saw her breathing harshly.

I wonder if something about the word Training stuck her.

"What I mean is I am going to teach you some defense, so you could feel confident" I said slowly she listened to me carefully. I stepped forward and her body went stiff.

I glance at her shoes "May I?!" I asked, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, I bend down making her step back again, I took her shoe lace and tied it.

"Bu... But.. Why..!?" She asked me.
"Because I want you to be strong again, because I hate seeing you afraid, because no woman should live in fear" I told her.

She whimper, my eyes soften "Don't you want to feel strong again, when you face that man?" I asked her.

She looked away from me "I don't want to face him" She said softly.

"I am not forcing you, but think of it as a new hobby of yours" I told her. After few seconds she nodded.

I grin "Lets get started then" I said moving to my gym room.

"Ok.. Have you taken any lessons before?!" I asked raising my eyebrows at her, her stand was perfect the gap between her feet her hands , fists perfectly angled.

"Yes! I.. I took little training in army school but it was 12 years ago" She told me.

"Ok so that's a plus point, now I want you to start by.......
And this is how I started to teach her basic.

........

" Does she still have nightmares!?" Ruhi asked, currently We were in her house, as Today was Neha's concealing session with Karan.

She had refused to go at hospital, so we decided to keep her sessions at home, Ruhi told me that hospital reminds her of her baby so she usually avoided them.

"Yes, but unlike earlier she calms down quickly" I told her. When Ruhi came to know that she was leaving with she suggested to her to move in her house.

But I didn't wanted, beside Neha said she didn't wanted to disturb them.

Ruhi sigh beside me "She as change I can see it, not all but a little" Ruhi told me, I smiled. It's been 2 weeks I am training her.

"Don't worry she will be all good in no time" I assure her.

"What about the ultimatum, Dad gave you?!" She asked making me groan in irritation.

"You know dad can be pretty serious about it" She told me.
I know daam right, when dad you that tone.

"You are running out of time" She told me. Why she had to bring that topic, I glared at her.
Making her giggle.

.....

After Neha's sessions we went home, in morning as always she got ready and came out. But today I was not going to train her instead I had another plans.

"We are going to the park!" I told her, she frown "Why??!!" She asked.

"It's fresh outside, beside you need to step out" I told her, she shook her head vigorously.

"N... No.. No.. He will see.. And.. No" She. Shutter.

"Neha!... Neha!!" I called loudly making her flinch.

"He won't be able to do anything, I am there ok.. And if you want we can cover your face" I told her.

Stepping forward I put my black cap on her head and pulled the hoodie over the cap., small Cat eyes hidding under it
"This is your disguise.. Now shall we go!?" I asked her, she nodded again.

I took her to nearby park, we both ran for half n hour, I had to slow down my pace to match her, Neha was  currently sitting on one the bench, while I did push up.

My eyes watch Neha she was looking at the kids, there was longing in her eyes, a lump form in my throat.

"want to hear some music?!" I asked her, sitting beside Her I plugged earpods in her ears. I played 'beliver'.

She had actually removed her cap, "Can we go home?!" she asked me after a while".

"Sure" I said.

....

"Yes, book my ticket for tomorrow.." I told my secretary, she noted it down before leaving.

I rubbed my forehead... I had to leave for London tomorrow for a conference but leaving Neha alone was bothering me.

What if she get afraid?! Or leave and go.. Numerous questions troubled me.

I went home very late, there was so much work pending in office and since dad was on tour, I had to handle everything, Abhi uncle  Mia maa and Myra di were busy on new projects.

I had no idea how to tell Neha about it.. She is surely going to freak out.
