Ranvijay's point of view

As ishqi stood up and started to leave my heart sank. I still don't know why. I almost got up from my chair to follow ishqi but raksha went behind ishqi. One of ruchi's friend excused himself for the washroom. And ruchi started to cling to me. I was just hating it. I was just bodily sitting there. But my mind was just all around that mystery girl ishqi. I don't even know a thing about her. But still my heart wants to follow her till the doom.

Constantly my mind was dragging me towards that ishqi. I just gave up. I decided to see her one last time. I will just see that ishqi for the one last time and that's it. I convinced myself. And without any explanation I left that table. On my way out I saw rakshu. She was going in to fetch her purse. She stopped me. And asked me to keep her friend company. I obliged too willingly to give ishqi company till raksha brings the car. I smiled to myself. I loved the fact that I got a chance to meet ishqi. I just scratched my ears to hide my blush.

Why that ishqi was breaking all the walls I created around my heart and making me go crazy behind her. I didn't know. Well I didn't want to know. This is the last time I will ever face her. I tried to bargain with my stubborn brain.

But a shriek got my attention. I turned towards the source of the shriek. There I saw ruchi's friend in a dark alley dragging someone with him.

They were quite at a distance and there was darkness. And dim light from parking reached there. I could only get he was dragging some girl with him.

This infuriated me. I started running towards them. As I reached a bit closer, I could see that girl was none other than ishqi. Now I was beyond infuriated. I was raging. How dared he? My running speed increased.

And ishqi hit that basturd with a stick. He fell down holding his head in his hands. I reached to that boy. I picked up that excuse of a man. And punched him hard.

But my anger just increased. I again punched him hard. He stared to bleed. But i cared less.

Raksha came in that alley searching for me. Rakshu was so shocked to see my anger. But she tried to pull me away from that boy before I really kill him with my bare hands.

Meanwhile Ruchi and her friends also came there. Ruchi was shit scared. She had never seen the beast in me. She had always seen a polite and gentle prince. I always had been righteous.

But today I lost my control. This bastard boy dared to force himself on a girl without her wish.

I was still punching and kicking that boy. Raksha now yelled at my ears, " dada stop this before you really kill him. And please find ishqi. She is more important than punishing this shit boy."

All of a sudden my punch freezed mid way. I just threw away that boy back. And started looking for ishqi. Raksha also started to find her. We stared calling her name aloud. But I heard a small, timid girl voice from behind a car. I reached out behind that car to find ishqi sitting on the ground talking to herself. She had her ears covered with her palm. She was shaking tremendously and then I noticed her dress was torn at her back.

My blood boiled in rage. I thought of again going back to that boy and actually killing him for torturing such a tender soul.

I closed my eyes to collect myself. I gently shifted close to ishqi and slowly placed my hand on her shoulder to calm her down.

As I reached closer to ishqi, I saw a scar on her back. It looked as if she had been hurt with a big weapon like a sharp sword or something.

That scar looked just like that scar which rudra got while saving me.
