*Jhanvi Pov*I smiled looking at the door in anticipation. When will he return? He should be here by now.Oh god! I wish I can share this news with someone else after him. But… I trailed off my thinking, shaking my head. He is enough for me.My prince! I thought and grinned, seeing the way knob being turned.“Jay! Thank god you are here. Any more minutes, I would have gone mad.” I babbled rushing near to him only to stop in my tracks.“Is something wrong?” I asked, feeling my grin slipping away.“Let us sit first.” He replied in a blank tone.I nodded, walking towards the couch and sat down with him sitting before me instead of beside me.“I need to go back.” He simply started.“To the office?” I asked him, frowning feeling confused.“No! To my home.” He replied.“Ok!” I mumbled, not knowing what to say.Whenever, I brought the topic of his family and ask anything regarding them, he always went distant which made me leave the curiosity all together.“When are we going?” I asked him gi

*Jay Pov*“You should always stay with her if I am not in the house.” I said to the maid looking at Jhanvi.“Always?” she asked and I nodded without looking at her.“Do not worry about the pay. I can hire a nurse, but I do not want another person in this house right now.” I replied narrowing my eyes at the eyes of Jhanvi staring blankly.“Should I also just keep on staring at her all the time, Sir?” I suddenly heard the curious question making me frown and I turned to see the maid frowning at me already.“Of course not! She is not going to disappear in thin air.” I replied shaking my head.“I just thought that as you didn’t look away from her as if searching for something.” She mumbled.“If she starts talking or anything immediately call me and… and do not talk to her about anything.” I said and she nodded.“And do not worry about missing the works of other houses. Before leaving the city I will recommend you to as many as I can.” I added remembering her other work.“Thank you, Sir.”

*Jay Pov*“She… she is moving, Sir.” I glanced up from the newspaper to see the face of the maid with shock covering it.“Really? Is she talking?” I asked her.“No! She is like before only but moving her face and hands by her own.” She replied and I frowned.“Okay! You gave her breakfast?” I asked, standing up.“Yes!” she replied and I nodded, walking away to reach her room.Now what is this new thing? I thought sighing and walked inside to see her turning to lay on her side.“So, you are back to normal?” I asked, feeling relief, but she kept quiet, staring at the wall.“You are doing it on purpose or is it something else?” I asked, sitting on the chair beside her.She flicked her eyes to me and just stayed like that while I waited for her to say something. When she didn’t, I cleared my throat feeling awkward.“You there?” I asked, waving my hand feeling weird this time.“Jhanvi?” I called and placed my hand on her cheek, for which she didn’t do anything.“Well, now as my hand is not

*Jhanvi Pov*I just stood there staring at her sleeping form with all the toys she likes surrounding her. Why did I rush into all this? Where was thinking and the past mistakes?Wasn’t once enough with my jumping into everything and returning with nothing? Now, again, I rushed into more complicated things.But… but standing here, I know it is not a complete bad thing. She was… she was too alone and I have seen her looking lost when one day the people came to adopt but didn’t glance at her.Wasn’t I there? Wasn’t I having the same feel of lost when people used to come to the hospital and choose the kids? Didn’t I try to settle myself with just the life I got, feeling great full for it.Isn’t the reason for my rush behind that person craving for such belongingness? Isn’t it the reason for being pushed to the edge of a cliff in the life and thrown over by the betrayal?How can I let someone else get the same fate? I may can’t do it for everyone else but this little girl will not have

*Jhanvi Pov*“Jay!” I called him when he was about to walk out of the door.He immediately turned around with shock covering his face making me realize that it is the first time I am calling him by his name.“What is it?” he asked clearing his throat.“I need to go one hour early today.” I replied and he nodded.“I will come early.” He stated and we both stood there in silence.“Lakshmi must be wondering about me.” I said, gesturing my hand to her room.“I must go too.” He said and at once we both turned around before walking away in our directions.This is so awkward! I thought moving my hand to slap my forehead but stopped myself. It’s been just two days since I cried my heart out about my fears and insecurities and my another stupidity.Who asked me to kiss his cheek? Did he or is there any need? No! But still overwhelmed with everything, I went and did that.Now, I am feeling so awkward to even talk to him. It’s not like I talked to him before but that was because of anger and all
