Everyone was tensely pacing around the hospital waiting area for an hour.

Arvind looked at the OT and prayed to God along with others. Soon anirudh came out of the OT with other doctors.

"Anirudh how is my daughter?" Arvind asked worriedly

"Is she alright? Please tell us anirudh, we're getting worried sick, please." Neha asked looking at him with teary eyes

"Anirudh I am telling you, if anything happens to my sister I am not going to let you live peacefully." Rudra threatened him

"Rudra, anirudh is not responsible for her condition. Please stop blaming him unnecessarily." Batuk told rudra who ignored him

"Please say something anirudh" Arvind begged him

That's when bondita came out of the OT, her right arm was injured and she was looking a little pale and weak.

"Bondita... My child. Are you alright? What are you doing here? You got shot right? Then why are you here instead of resting?"

Arvind asked confusingly

"That's because she is absolutely fine." Saurabh told them after coming out of the OT room.

"What do you mean?" Neha asked confusingly

"She was lucky that the bullet just passed touching her right arm. When we took her inside the OT, we thought she was seriously hurt because of the heavy bleeding but after we cleaned the blood, we noticed that there was no serious injury to her and she is absolutely fine."

Saurabh informed them while everyone took a breath in relief

"I have already dressed up her wounds and all her reports are normal, so we can take her back home."

Anirudh told them without looking at bondita for once. Bondita looked at him and sighed sadly.

"He is angry" She thought

....

When Shubhra shooted on bondita, everyone was shocked to react but when they got into their senses, bondita was already laying on floor while her arm was bleeding.

Shubhra was about to shoot her again when rudra and batuk stopped her and handed her over to the police along with the rest of Roy Chowdhury family.

Anirudh who was quite disappointed by the fact that bondita hid so many things from him. As soon as he saw her getting shot, he immediately held her and tried to stop her bleeding.

For the second time in his life, he felt extremely helpless. He saw the exact scene of mini covered in blood infront of him as he saw bondita bleeding.

He felt numb when saurabh told him to operate her along with him. He was scared, what if he hurts her? What if something happens to her in the process of operating her? For the first time in his life, he was doubting on his skills as a doctor.

He was fearfully standing beside her while saurabh was cleaning the blood. That's when he heard saurabh saying that bullet didn't went inside her arm. That's when he came back to his senses and checked her wounds before dressing her wounds up with saurabh.

But one thing was sure that he is not going to forgive her so easily for playing these games and hiding things from him.

.....

Arvind and rudra were tensed about bondita and wanted her to stay in Das mansion along with anirudh. But she politely denied as she was well aware about anirudh's disappointment with her and she wanted to pacify his anger.

Anirudh and bondita entered inside their house. He held bondita's arm carefully and went towards their room. He carefully made her sit on the bed and went to get water for her.

All this while, bondita was looking at him continuously but he didn't spare a glance towards her. She wanted to apologise to him for hiding things but she knew that it's better to stay quiet tonight, she will talk to him tomorrow morning.

After half an hour, anirudh came inside the room with a plate filled with food. It was already midnight and because of all the chores happened in the party, they didn't had their dinner. He knows she can't control her hunger and she also needs to take medicine, so he cooked noodles for her.

He quietly sat beside her and started to feed her while she tried to find any emotions on his face but his face was completely blank. She slowly ate, looking at him longingly. Soon she finished the food and he was about to leave when she stopped him.

"Won't you eat anything?" She asked him softly

"I lost my appetite" He replied without looking at her

She was about to say something but he walked out of the room, while she sighed. She too followed him towards the kitchen. Anirudh was washing the dishes when he noticed bondita and looked at her confusingly.

Bondita took out a plate and served some noodles on it. Anirudh understood what she was trying to do and ignored her before going back to washing dishes.

"Here, let me feed you" She said as she stood beside him

"You don't need to give me any special treatment after all I am not that important for you tight? So don't waste your energy on me." He replied mocking her

She looked at him with teary eyes but didn't let the tears fall and told him

"I know I did a mistake but please don't say you are not important for me. You know what you are for me..."

"No I don't know! After what happened in the party... I really don't know if I am anything for you other than your husband whom you married unwillingly!"

He didn't let her finish and replied her

"I... I know you... You are hurt and don't want to talk to me but please at least have your dinner."

She requested while the tears ran down from her eyes which she was trying to hold

"No I am not hurt... I can never get hurt after all I am a man. I don't have any right to get hurt or feel pain right? I don't have any right to express my emotions nor I have any right to know about my wife! Do I?"

He asked her furiously as she sobbed

He took a deep breath to control his anger and told her calmly

"You're injured so it's better we don't talk about this matter. Go back to your room and take your medicine before going to sleep. You already did many big things for me, I don't want to burden you anymore."

She wanted argue with him and tell him how wrong he is but she knew that it's better to listen to him for now.
