Manvi was sitting on the bed, she heard a familiar voice. She looked at the door and it was Aarav.
She smiled lightly seeing him. She stood up and ran to him hugging him tightly.. "Tum aa gaye.."
"Haa.. par main tumse bahut naraz hun" he said..
She looked towards him and asked "kyun??"

"Mana ki tumhare papa jhallad hai par ye log toh ache hai na.. Tum inki baat kyun nhi sunti ho?" he asked her.
"No.. wo bhi jhoothe hai.. Sab jhoothe hai" she said making a face.
"Manvi kya unlogo tumhe daanta hai? Kya tumhe dark room mein band kiya? Wo toh koshish kar rahe hai na tumhe pyar dene ki" he said..
She heard him silently.. "No.. phir baad mein papa ki tarah maarenge aur band karenge.." she said fearly.
"Aisa nhi hoga.. Mujhpe bharosa hai tumhe?" he asked.

She nodded in yes.. "Toh tum unse darogi nahi samjhi.. Baat manogi" he said, convincing her..
Manvi agreed, she talked to him about how the doctor gave her an injection which she didn't like.
"Acha tum jao ab.. Papa aayenge toh mujhe maarenge" she said..
He nodded and left the room..
Ruhana smiled "thank you"
"I just hope wo thik ho jaye.." he said and left after sometime.
Ruhana entered her room and said "chalo bahar khana khate hai.."
Manvi followed her and sat down on the dining table. Ruhana served her the food.
She eyed towards pickle. She wanted it, "chahiye?" Vineet asked.
She shook her head in yes and he kept it on her plate. She ate it with paratha. Ruhana smiled as her trick worked..
As day passed by, Manvi started to behave a bit normally. She was not scared of Ruhana, Vineet or Avni but darkness was still her biggest fear. It seemed she was getting better.
