When neil rushed to the couch,he was literally shocked after looking at dadi who was unconscious.
Her head was bleeding badly.

Neil : D..Dadii...
He took her head and tried to wake her up.
Neil : Dadii jii..
Pls utiye aap..

There was response from her side.

Neil : Please...please aankhe kholiye..

He realised about Avni suddenly.
Looking at Dadi he got frightened that Avni might get the situation like dadi.
His eyes widened and he scared of losing her.

Neil : A..Avnii..
Dadi..
Dadii please utiye aap..
Avni ke liye pls..

He cried pleading unconscious woman infront of him.

With a tensed face and shivering hands he checked her pulse as she was not responding.

When his hands touched with her's his heart started thumping faster than ever.
He stumbled and fell back in his position when he felt no pulse from her.
She is dead.
He just realised that she is no more and indeed she was murdered mercilessly.

He cried vigorously sitting there.
Touching her face he pleaded the dead dadi to awake.

Neil : M...mein..Avni ko kya bolungi Dadiii..
I...I'm sorry..I am soo sorry dadi.
I failed to save you.
I..I failed..
He cried out of his heart.

His eyes turned widen when his mind striked for Avni.

Neil : K..kahi..Avni ko bhi...
N..nahi..
M..mein kuch nahi hone dunga Avni ko..

He harshly rubbed his tears and the face but his tears are unstoppable.

Later,with a heavy heart he handovered dadi's dead body for postpartum.
He looked like a life less person.

DD : S..sir..
He tapped Neil's shoulder.
Neil looked at him.
Neil : Avni ka.kuch pata chala?
DD : Hum abhi bhi investigation kar rahe hain..
Iss area mein koi bhi cc camera na hone.ki vajah se mushkil ho raha hain sab kuch.

Neil cleared his face.
Neil : Mein hee dund thi meri Avni.

In the evening he did all the rituals and crementation of dadi.
He don't know anyone of their relatives to inform.
As much as he remembered Avni said that they had no one in this world.

Now Avni lost her dadi too..
Now neil is hell worried for Avni.
Why would he tell her when he get her back.
What she would have taken?

****
He worked like a robot for her in the last 3days.
Neil searched each and every corner of the city for her.
But he failed.

In the midnight he reached his flat at 3AM with a sad and disappointed face.
He felt his body very weak.
With a thud he fell on the couch and leaned his head to the headboard.

Neil : Kaha ho tum Avni??
Ye kya ho raha hain hamare sath..
Kitna khush the hum..
After my mom and dad I felt happy with you.
I found myself when I met you,when I was with you.
Aisa lag rahi hain mera Jaan chala gaya Avu.
Please jaldi aao..
Nahi reh sakta tere bina.

He cried badly looking at his phone wallpaper which has her and his selfie.
His head is paining like hell.
He took the jig of water from the table and drank half of the water from that.
Again he has to start the hunt of searching her.
For that he has to be strong enough.

Walking weakly he moved to the dining table and sat turning the plate.
He filled the plate as much as he want and started eating though he felt like not eating.

He didn't stopped talking to himself in between the dinner.

Neil : Ye khana bhi tumhare liye hee kha raha hoon mein..
Mann nahi kar raha hain phir bhi kha raha hoon..
Itna kuch kar rahi hoon mein tumhare liye..
A..aur tum ko meri fikar bhi nahi nahi..
