Dhruv
******
She was sleeping peacefully in my arms while I was staring at her for the past one hour, reminiscing how she used to look before. She was with me but I was not happy.
Although I have always dreamt of a life where she will be with me but not like this. That's not how it was supposed to happen. She was looking so peaceful as if she slept this peacefully after a very long time.
My heart clenched looking at her sleepy form. I was caressing her cheeks but she stirred in her sleep so I instantly removed my hand, not wanting to disturb my little angel's sleep. But the damage was done as she opened her eyes. Her gaze fell on me and I stilled at my place not knowing what's going to happen next.
I was in a dilemma, what should I do, should I greet her good morning or should I leave the bed, will she get panicked.
It was so difficult to predict her action. I decided to get out of the bed and with that thought as I was about to move she hel

Dhruv********FLASHBACK STARTS******Today is my parent's death anniversary. Every year I used to be alone on this day but this time it was different. Saavi's presence was more than enough to make me forget some of my pain. I know I shouldn't be affected this much but I don't have control over it. I won't be lying if I say that I am afraid, afraid of what will happen if she leaves me just like others. I just hope nothing like that ever happens again because I won't be able to deal with it, I am not ready for another loss. I do seem strong to others but the truth is I am not. I won't be able to survive if my Saavi leaves me.My Saavi, her name is enough to make me smile.I was singing in a room adjacent to my bedroom as that's what I do when my mind used to indulge in some thoughts. I love singing because it's the quality I have got from my mother and I will cherish it forever.I was singing the Payphone of Maroon 5.****

Dhruv******I am overjoyed today. Why? Because Muffin is sad.It sounds weird, right?Well, what I meant was my little muffin is throwing tantrums at me and I am liking it. No, actually, I am loving it.She is not ready to have her breakfast and besides she is angry at me as she is not responding to me.You guys must be wondering how did it happen?So, it all started with the mobile phone. I have bought a new phone for her and she is now addicted to it, which I don't want. It's good that she is getting normal but too much of anything is bad."Muffin, please eat breakfast." She didn't respond and put her head on the table.I don't want to force her but at the same time, I can't take risks regarding her health. She needs to eat."Muffin, I will not give your phone to you if you will not eat your breakfast." She frowned hearing me but didn't pull her head up from the table."Muffin, please.""Please."

Dhruv******"Arjun, what is jealousy?" Kiaan asked smirking at me."Jealousy is defined as a defensive reaction to a perceived threat to a valued relationship, arising from a situation in which the partner's involvement with an activity and/or another person is contrary to the jealous person's definition of their relationship." Arjun read the exact definition of it, of course, he read it from google.Can I kill my brother and my best friend?'You can but then think about your reputation.' and here is one more devil, my inner self.'Shut Up!' I whisper yelled and obviously to my inner self.Hredhaan shook his head and mumbled under his breath, "Possessed.""Guys why don't you all give me a tour of the new Russia," Namit said glaring at me. I looked at Dhriti for help but she was too busy with my muffin that she didn't even spare a glance at me.Shit! I forgot to tell you all what exactly happened? So, what happened was:-

Dhruv******"So what's the plan?" Hredhaan asked as we all were sitting in my study room to discuss what should we do to find the culprit while muffin was with Dhriti."I have asked Andrew for the reports regarding Saavi. Her details from 7 years ago till now.""Did he find anything?" enquired Arjun."There is still one week left for the ultimatum I gave.""So are we going to sit till then?" Hredhaan asked to which I replied,"Not at all. Saavi was rescued from Italy and since that's the root, we will start from there only."I started telling them what exactly we all have to do."Hredhaan, find the details of the mission we were on 3 months ago. Don't skip any info about it.""Kiaan and Arjun, you guys find the details of those 13 girls who were rescued along with Saavi.""Namit, you will have to research on the NGO she used to live in, back in India."Announcing everyone's share of work I said,

Namit******"It's....it's all my fault." Sama had been crying ever since she saw Saavi in that state. Even I got scared."Sama it isn't. You were unaware of her state." I was trying to calm her teary self but she seemed inconsolable."I got scared Nam..Namit...She was shi..shivering." I knew she will blame herself despite knowing that it isn't anyone's fault.Hugging her I tried to make her stop from crying as I said, "It's fine, love. Stop blaming yourself.""Namit is right, Dhri. It wasn't your fault." Kiaan too joined to calm her down."I have witnessed nightmares before but this was, I don't know what to say," Arjun said and I agreed at his point. Sama also used to had nightmares at one time but not Saavi."We need to find out asap what exactly has happened to her." Hredhaan's voice was laced with seriousness."You are right," I said as delaying this thing must not be in our option."Can I..he...help you all?

Dhruv******I don't want all my efforts to go into the drain, I thought as I lied her unconscious self on the bed. Saavi had fainted in the kitchen while crying. It wasn't easy to break some of the walls she had built around her and I didn't want to be back at the starting point. But right now, all I could do was hope for the best."Dhruv, Dr. Morrison is here," Kiaan said and leaving Saavi with Dhriti and Hredhaan I went out."Thanks for coming at the last moment doc.""It's fine. I was free anyways.""Where is she? Can I see her?""She is still unconscious," I said and looked at the other person he had brought with him. He looked like a doctor too as he had a stethoscope wrapped around his neck."Oh! I forgot to introduce him, He is doctor Zac."Both of us shook hands and then Dr. Morrison put forward the question,"By the way can you tell me what exactly happened?" I took him to the kitchen.Looking at

Dhruv******"Dhruv, I think you should consider it," Namit said and that's when the girls came back. Everyone stopped talking about it as Saavi was with them too. They stayed for an hour and then left after messing up with my mind.I would have considered the idea if Saavi would have been comfortable around strangers but also I don't have any other option left.What my friends suggested was to take Saavi with me to the office.
