Dev woke up early in the morning to the knock in the door. He opened the door to looked up to see two men standing there, both of them were looking at him sternly. "Dev Dixit?" The man who came from behind asked him. "Yeah! How can I help you?" He replied, raising his eyebrows he showed his attitude, he wasn't interested in talking to them. Dev was worried whether the loud talks will wake up Sonakshi.

"Mr. Dev Dixit, I'm  arresting you on suspicion of komolika death. You do not have to say anything, but anything you do say may be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you, Now walk with us.” he stated, as he took hold of Dev's arm to handcuff.

"What the hell?" Came out sonakshi's voice too loud, she was shocked to see Dev keeping his mouth shut. "That asshole is pressing charges?" Was something sonakshi felt like her negative thoughts coming true.

Dev put his hand on sonakshi's shoulder, "Don't move, doll" he was so concerned about her, he didn't want her to be stressed. "You are being arrested and you still worry for me." She hugged him tightly looking at the two men approach closer to Dev. "I live for you, why would being arrested bother me?" He hugged her back and tried to console her but she asked him to free her.

"This is fucking stupid! You can’t arrest him, it wasn’t his fault!,She destroyed her life and just because she's dead you can't favour her." She cried desperately, looking at the two men who were watching them. Dev was quick enough to wear his shoes and leave, as the police man caught his hand. Sonakshi quickly held his another hand looked at him with pity eyes. "Why the hell are you being so calm about this? Did you expect something like this to happen? How can you leave us?" Her questioned made even the police men melt, they knew it wasn't their fault but higher officials order was also supposed to be followed by them.

"There’s been a serious complaint , Ma’am. We need to investigate,” the police man stated, not even able to look at the emotion in sonakshi's face.

"Everything’s fine. Don’t worry,” Dev assured her. "Fine? How is this fine?" She screamed,  He turned to look at the guy holding his arm. “I need to kiss my wife, can you wait outside. She’s just had a surgery,” he was literally ordering the police men. The guy’s face softened slightly and he let go of Dev's hands. They left from the room leaving Dev with sonakshi for few minutes.  Dev bent over and kissed her softly on the lips. “I love you, Doll. Don’t start to stress about me. You need to rest, atleast for our baby Doll.” he instructed, stroking her face gently. As he went to pull back , she panicked. She couldn’t let him go, she needed him and threw her arms around his neck and refused to let go. “Please don’t go, please? This isn't your fault, this was my fault, I should be arrested and not you." She kissed around his face as his hands gripped her hip tightly, sobbing on his shoulder, she pleaded him to stay with her.

"Ma'am, you need to let go now" the police man came and tried to take Dev along with him. She hugged him so tight, he could feel some pain in her hold but he didn't complain. "Ma'am" he screamed, Dev tried to move back but she was still hugging him so tight, making it hard for him to even take a step back.

Dev rubbed his hands up her arms gently, unclasping her hands from his hair. When he was free of her arms, he pulled back to look at her. He was stressed and worried, she could tell that from his eyes. “I love you,” he vowed, kissing her gently on her lips again. “I love you too, Dev. Should I say we love you?” she whispered, taking his hands and placing it on her stomach. Dev stood up and the police immediately pulled his hands behind his back, putting on handcuffs. Dev’s eyes didn’t leave her's as she felt her heart breaking all over again.

Sonakshi was clueless what to do?, she found it really hard to breathe too. She put her hands over her face,  trying to think of something. Sonakshi decided to expose the truth about komolika, she was clueless from where to start and looked at herself in the TV screen helpless.

The only thing sonakshi could think of was getting komolika's father to drop the charges. She grabbed her phone and called Jatin. He answered on the third ring. “Jatin, Dev’s been arrested, for komlika's death.” she said simply, not knowing how to even convey her pain to jatin. “What the hell?” he shouted, making her wince away from the phone slightly. “Jatin, look I’m will be discharged in the morning, so can you bring me some clothes to hospital and the house key is with Riya. Can you do this for me?” she asked, trying to stay calm. “Yeah , I’ll be there in like twenty minutes" Jatin replied and she ended the call.

Sonakshi decided to call komlika's dad, it wasn't that hard for her to find his number as he was the minister and calling his office wasn't hard but personally speaking to him, would be really tough. She called his office number and waited.

"Hello?” the minister somehow managed to sound terrifying with one word. “It’s Sonakshi Dev Dixit,” she said, swallowing the lump in my throat and was shock enough to know he picked her call. He laughed . “And what can I do for you, Sonakshi Dev Dixit?”

"I want you to drop the charges against my husband,” she answered, trying to sound confident. He laughed again. “I’m not dropping the charges, that fucker killed my daughter! You should see what he did to my one and only child,” he shouted, making her flinch. Sonakshi didn't like anyone bad mouthing about her husband, she found it horrible when he was blaming Dev unnessaraily. “Please, please don’t do this, please?, I will do whatever you want. Just drop the charges against my husband.” She  begged, trying not to cry. He sighed. “You want me to drop the charges?” “Yes ,” she answered, wiping the tears from her face. “Come to my house and we’ll talk about it,” he stated, sounding amused. Sonakshi was scared to go to his house, she thought it would be dangerous to her and mainly didn't want to risk her baby's life.

"Please drop the charges. You know your daughter hit me first, please?” She begged, feeling the bile rise in my throat, she didn't want to meet him. “Come to my house and we’ll talk about it,” he repeated. "Okay! I will come with my brother" sonakshi stated, she was feeling nervous to go alone and she also felt some changes in her. She changed after looking at the growing life in her stomach, she decided to not take rest and lost her boldness too. This time she decided to not to complicate anything.

"Just come alone." He said and hang the call.

Oh God, can I do this? Can I really go there and talk to him?

Meanwhile jatin entered and sonakshi tried to control her fear. "How? What happened?" Jatin questioned. "Jatin, I need you to go to the police station and see if there’s anything you can do for Dev. I'll go back home safely." She said grabbing her clothes from his hand. "You sure, you don't want me to stay with you?" Jatin asked and Sonakshi opened her hands for a hug. "I need you but I feel Dev needs you more." He kissed her forehead and she felt confident as the brother's magic worked.

"I  just need Dev to be OK. So if you could do that for me, Jatin,” she requested, nodding towards the door. He hugged her again. “OK. I’ll call you if I hear anything, take care." Jatin replied and left sonakshi alone.

After taking a warm bath her physical pain got reduced, she consumed a glass of milk and called Vicky. "Dev's arrested, I'm going to meet komlika's father and ask him to discharge the case." Sonakshi said as soon as Vicky picked the call.

"You are going to meet him, sona?" Vicky questioned thinking about the consequences. "Yeah, can you accompany me?" She asked like he will tell a NO! "I will come to hospital right away." Vicky replied.

"Listen, her dad shouldn't know you are with me, he insisted me to come alone. I'm sacred to go alone, I don't want to take risk and hurt Dev. So hide somewhere and come to rescue me when I'm in trouble." Sonakshi was comfortable with Vicky and he accepted her request.

Vicky discharged sonakshi and tried to understand her words, he was too happy looking at her call him for help.

Within few minutes Vicky took her to the place where the minister had asked her to come, it was his house and Sonakshi was getting really nervous as they got close to his place.

Sonakshi instructed Vicky to wait outside for her,she knocked on the door and held her breath, waiting for the minister to answer. The door opened almost immediately. There he stood, the man who sent her husband to jail.

"What is it that you want so that you’ll you drop the charges against Dev?” sonakshi asked not even stepping inside his house, she called Vicky and he attended as per the plan she wanted to Vicky to listen their talks. So that hs could help him when she can't manage.

"He should not poke his nose in my business, your husband is reason behind my losses. He stopped our high steriod medicines then now, he's fighting for the drugs which doesn't have a proper expiry date." Sonakshi understood why komolika was worst, that man wasn't worried about his daughter's death but was so concerned about his business. "What's your problem if we prepare low quality polio drops for children? I felt it better if he stays in jail." He said and walked inside.

"We will not come between your business, take the complaint back. I also don't want this health minister post, we'll leave this country itself. Just free him." She almost fell on his legs and begged him. "Okay, a week time. If you both still come between our business then I need to expose your husband's illegal murdering job. I have strong proofs on him killing my daughter to destroy your future." He threatened her. "We won't come against you, I promise." Sonakshi assured.

"Prove it. I mean tell the world how good my business is and bring back the trust people lost on us." His demands made her disagree. He came forward and touched her shoulders, she got scared. "This the script you Need to speak." He handed over a paper to her, she was taken to the garden where the press and reporters stood excited for the breaking news.

She read what was written on the paper.

I'm Sonakshi Dev Dixit.
I'm here to speak about the drugs our  minister deal with,
They are the best medicines for any diseases. They don't contain high steroids like how it has been told earlier on the news by the unknown protagonist who killed Lucifer. He did for money and blackmailed our minister to bribe him. Being a doctor he played a cheap trick with patients life.

I don't want to take the post of health minister because I feel I'm not worth this post, the only person who is fit for the post his our dear Komolika ma'am. She deserved it and after death I don't deserve this position.

Consume drugs and polio drops the health ministry suggests as they give the right to people.

Sonakshi tore the paper and threw it on the minister's face. "Screw it, you expect me to speak against my husband. Do you think I will do it? Praise your bloody daughter, wow." She yelled making everyone present there get scared.

Sonakshi hiccups, that was the sign for Vicky to enter inside. The minister caught her neck, she found it hard to breathe. Vicky was on time to rescue sonakshi from his hold. "Don't make me send you to your daughter." He screamed, carefully taking sonakshi In a side hug. "I will destroy you." The minister yelled, "I know how to free my husband, I will not cheat the world. If there's a situation like he should stay in jail to save million of people I'm okay with it." She said and walked out from the place, the reporters didn't favour her. She felt annoyed looking at how selfish most of the people we're.

Sonakshi felt like even if one person recorded what happened and telecasts it in the news millions of people could have been saved, she didn't like the selfishness.

Getting inside the car, she decided to make dev come out of all his illegal good job. She didn't like him suffering for few ungrateful people. She felt annoyed to stay there looking at the sympathy vanish. Sonakshi was a kind of person who was ready to lose anything for others happiness but today's incident turned her selfish, if everyone around her is selfish why can't she?

"Vicky, I sent him a vedio of komolika trying to kill a baby. Will that be accepted in court to prove dev's innocence?" She questioned him as he was driving. "Court may not accept it. Like they will say we should have complained rather than killing her for it." Vicky's reply made her more scared.

Within a second she received a call from komlika's Dad. "You bitch." He hissed. "Call them now, drop the charges, If not this vedio will bring your true colours. I still have more vedios with me of your dear daughter taken in the lab. I don't feel ashamed to tell this but I hope you won't mind if I upload your daughter making with Lucifer on the website. Shall I, with your concern." She didn't have any other vedios other than komolika injected mishti's daughter with steroids but decided to add up more to make her work done quick. "I will free your husband, but you need to pay back to all this." He replied going back to perform the last rights of his daughter.

"Everything’s fine, vicky, just calm down. I’ve sorted everything,” she  stated, throwing her phone above the dashboard.

"I know, my didi will sort everything soon." He replied with a smile.

"Yeah, I feel tired. Drop me in home soon." She Said forcing Vicky to drive soon.

Sonakshi decided to wait for Dev at home as she knew Jatin will bring him safe to home. She did not want to go to jail with the cute little child growing inside her.

After reaching home, Vicky helped sonakshi climb the steps. He made her rest on the bed.  "I’m really sorry you lost your baby, you know that, right?” he asked quietly. She smiled hearing his words. "No, he's fine. You get ready to be an kickass uncle." She teased and he really felt so happy to know about her child being healthy. Vicky was almost blaming himself assuming sonakshi lost her child because he didn't control her from stepping inside and fight with komolika.

"Wow, I'm ready to spoil the kid, may In this way if I could split Dev and You." He said making her smile. "No, you can't split us." She challenged him.

He bent down and hugged her, kissing her cheek. “You were really brave, and I’m proud of you," he said fiercely. Sonakshi nodded and closed her eyes, needing to go to sleep; she was physically and emotionally exhausted, Vicky understood that. He left from her room allowing her to rest.

Sonakshi woke up as she felt someone get on the bed. She opened her eyes eagerly and looked over to see Dev getting in the bed with her. She burst into tears and threw her arms around him. She had never been so happy to see anyone in her life. He hugged her back tightly, stroking her hair, rocking her gently as he pressed his lips to her neck, the same as he always does when she's sick.  She tangled her hands in his back and didn’t ever want to let go. She never wanted him away from her again. They both didn't talk anything as they just needed a tight hug.
