Natasha was sitting in the garden with a cup of coffee in her hand. She felt like stuck. She was continuously thinking about the things Abir had told her. Fortunately, her parents were out of town for some property deals. Otherwise she had to face their questions.
A maid informed Natasha that dinner was ready but she refused to eat. Then got a call from Sarah. "Yes Sarah." She calmly answered.
"How are you feeling now, Nat? Did he talk to you?"
Natasha spoke calmly, "He did."
"What did he tell?" Sarah asked in an anxious tone.
"Sarah I don't wanna repeat all these. Please."
"But you have to tell me Nat. Don't think much, just tell me."
Natasha unwillingly told in brief what Abir had told her. And Sarah's reaction was like, "Oh my God. This is too much Nat!! Way too much than I can handle. "
"I know Sarah. I don't want to face these but I have to. Where am I, what am I doing Sarah?"
"Don't be so sad Nat. Jay probably doesn't know all these. "
"Oh, one more thing. Please don't tell Jay about this. After all Rhea is his sister"
"You don't worry about that. I won't tell him." Sarah assured Natasha.
"Thanks Sarah."
"You don't need to thank me Nat. But did you forgive him?"
"I don't know Sarah, I really don't know. I know he has been through a lot and I also accept that it was not easy for him to tell me about his past. But I just can't make my heart understand. "
"I can imagine. Didn't he ask you for forgiveness? What did you say to him?"
"I didn't say anything, Sarah. I couldn't say anything. After hearing all those things I just walked off."
"I understand. It is your first relationship and you don't deserve to face all these. Listen to me, take your time. Go on with your heart."
"Yes, I really need time to decide what I am gonna do."
Next morning Natasha got up little late as she had a night shift to do. Her hand reached to her phone and she found that there were some missed calls and messages from Abir.
Natasha got up and got freshened up. She tried some yoga to shift her concentration. She ate her breakfast and started reading a book sitting at the garden swing.

After sometimes, her parents arrived. She got busy in talking to them. This helped her to stay distracted from the thoughts.
In the evening, when she reached the hospital, Abir was already gone. Natasha breathed in relief. She didn't want to face Abir right then.
But Natasha's wish doesn't come true. She bumped into Abir the next morning.
"Natasha? I was trying to talk to you."
"Yes, I.. I was just little busy you know, so I just forgot to text you back." Natasha nervously answered.
Abir held her hand, "Natasha please! Just say what do you think about me? About us? Don't avoid me like this."
Natasha realised that they were standing right at the corridor. So Natasha went to Abir's cabin and Abir followed her.
"Listen Abir, you may call me old fashioned or whatever. But truth be told, I had never been a relationship before. So all the things you told me that night is just too much for me to handle. I am not blaming you for what happened but I'm just feeling very uncomfortable in this. I need some time to think. "
Abir sighed, "Fine. Take your time. I will wait and I hope your heart is large enough to choose me at the end."
"I hope I choose what is right for me."
Natasha left from there. Abir stayed silent.
On the other hand, Yash was struggling with his feelings. In the office, he felt Suhana's eye on him, all the time. He was feeling suffocated.
He decided that he must free himself from at least one thing. He can not bear the burden.
Yash decided to take the step. He must tell Suhana that they were not getting along with each other anymore. It was not just working out. It would be much better to stop it before it got more toxic. It was time to set her free, so that she could also find someone like her.
