Its a humble request to all the ones reading this
Author's P.O.V
The darkness was not fading from their relation and how it can when the only source of light which was trying to find its way in the dark gloomy night was mercilessly crushed by Him ,she who struggled till her body was used ,her mind struggling on it's own ,her heart showing no emotions while on the other hand the one responsible had his own reasons
Have you ever noticed whenever we do something against our conscience we are always the one to regret no matter how much you justify the wrong it will never turn into right
Ridhima was sitting in the garden hardly four days have passed since that traumatic incident but still it felt as if years were passing on,she was sitting in the crowd of flowers ,trees,and birds who shared her loneliness the beautiful mother earth was providing comfort to her
She was playing with a small rabbit who had find its way to this mansion and was now making its habitat here
She was so emersed that she didn't felt the need to look here and there but when she turned around her smile dropped she was met with those pair of cruel and painful eyes which will always haunt her
Karan was standing at the door of his mansion and looking at her ,he truly lost a good person but seeing her so peaceful it did some good to his heart although she had detached herself and only wrote in her diary
When their eyes met for the first time he felt at peace as Ridhima was looking with some emotion which he couldn't understand ,her strands were flowing with the blowing winds
But as if she was reminded of the cruel night she stood up with a jolt but Karan was quick to hold her wrists softly
"Please just listen me out ,I...I...don't want you to be sad...as...If you are being cheated please Lets talk I...i...will maintain my distance but for once listen me out I...i..feel as if i will not be able to survive without talking to you"
Ridhima looked up ,those flashes roaming around her mind ,she felt as if he will do the same he did that night
She tried to stop her mind from wavering but his warmth was providing a comfort which was at once comfortable and also scary
She always knew that she was strong ,her parents always told her no matter how much you go through at the end of the day always take a deep breath and say It will pass ,I am,will and always be strong
And she did the same this time
She took out her notepad and wrote "I am not sure I can right now but after I will put those broken pieces of my heart together ..m..maybe we can talk"
His heart was crushed when she referred her heart as those broken pieces
He nodded nevertheless and said softly "I ....L..Take care "
The words which were trying to make way through his heart stopped when he knew her heart was still trying to cope up with him
Ridhima went to mansion and sat beside Amy who was trying to sew some scrunchies ,Ridhima asked her in a sign that can she also Amy immediately nodded and they both started making sewing and Amy being a talkative person whole time was blabbering how her mother would throw them into water tub if they came home dirty
Ridhima kept laughing ,she wrote "Amy can we go to shopping mall ,where we can shop for laces and stones ,I want to sew some dresses and style them "
Amy was quick to nod and asked Ridhima to eat something and then they can go to shop
After filling her tummy with Sandwiches and Protein Salad Ridhima got ready ,she looked ta herself in the mirror her face looked worn out ,her smooth skin had few marks and her neck had bandages ,her wrist had marks
How much she tries to Forget that painful moment ,she can't erase it from her life
She tried to smile and went with Amy who as usual was chirping in the hall
They both took a taxy as Ridhima was not comfortable with Karan's car taking her anywhere.
They both went into an Indian Market which was full of clothe materials abd laces ,stones ,etc
She bought two three fabrics and many laces and gota
While Amy was laughing and smiling ,Ridhima was feeling uncomfortable when she felt the gaze of men who looked at her with nothing but lust
It never bothered her but now her mind was playing those images what if it happened again with her ,what if someones ..
She looked here and there she was hallucinating Amy was no where to be found
She was having a panick attack,she ran out of the market in a hurry as if someone was chasing her
She sat in a corner of the street whew people moved as cars,she felt someone holding her back and speaking encouraging words to her
Her breath started slowing she looked at the side to find a curious man with warm eyes comforting her
She started cowering back in fear but he started speaking "hey No no ..I am not going to Hurt you dear Umm I am Doctor Kinean Willsford I am a therapist so I thought to help you are you alright now feeling better ?''
She still was a little afraid but nodded
She was going to go her way when he spoke " Whatever Pain you are going through remember dear that you should be proud of yourself that your emersed as a strong soldier not the one who was afraid and couldn't fight"
She glanced at him and smile
She was walking on the street to Amy running hysterically when she saw her she took a sigh of relief
Amh hugged her tight and took her to the mansion
When she entered she was embraced in a tight and comforting hug ,she pushed him back and
"Stay ....A...way from me "
The words spilled out from her mouth
