At Pragya's House,

Pragya was feeling restless thinking of Abhi and where he is now. It's been a couple of days since he is missing.

Just then her mum called her to come out of the room.

She went out and saw Aaliya talking to her parents.

Is everything alright Aaliya?

Aaliya in response passed a letter she was holding to Pragya.

After reading it Pragya exclaimed, No! He won't write like this to me. I won't believe this letter!

Aaliya, "But Pragya, this is his handwriting!"

Even if it his handwriting, I won't believe this!

Aaliya, "Pragya, try to understand..... If Bhai doesn't want to meet you means there must be a reason!"

He could have called and tell me this!

Aaliya, "He did called. He talked to us but he said he can't talk to you!"

No! I can't accept it! Where did he call from?

Aaliya, "Pragya, please.... I can't disobey Bhai's words. He asked me not to reveal anything about him to you."

This is unfair Aaliya! It's fine if you don't want to tell but I will find it out myself!

Pragya tells firmly and leaves to her room.

Aaliya tells Pragya's parents to make Pragya understand that there should be a reason for Bhai's actions.

Sarla ma, "Aaliya.... We don't know what made Abhi to tell like this. As far as we know there was nothing bad happening between them."

Mohan, "Yes.... It's shocking that Abhi doesn't want Pragya to talk to her."

Aaliya,"Once Bhai returns we can try to figure out. Until then, please ensure that Pragya don't do anything to contact Bhai."

Mohan, "I will talk to Pragya. You don't worry about her. I also hope Abhi returns back safely."

Aaliya smiled lightly and was about to leave when she received a call from King.

Aaliya,"What? What are you saying?"

Pragya's parents looked confused and Aaliya, "I will be there soon King. Please make sure Bhai is fine."

Sarla ma, "Abhi is back?"

Aaliya, "Haan but..... I think it will be better if Pragya come along with me...."

Sarla ma, "Sure! Please bring her along."

Aaliya rushes to Pragya's room and calls her to come along with her as Abhi had returned.

Pragya who was all this while yearning to see him didn't had to think to go along with Aaliya.

Pragya asked Aaliya when did Abhi returned but Aaliya told she also don't know anything except that King asked her to come to his house immediately.

Pragya was hoping all was well with Abhi.

Aaliya drove into a house that was not familiar to Pragya.

This is not King's House.....

Aaliya, "This is also his house. He asked me to come here."

Aaliya and Pragya then rushed inside the house to see Abhi. But King who came on their way said, "He is resting. Both of you can go to the room he rests later."

So what! It doesn't mean we can't see him right?

Aaliya, "Haan she is right. King please move aside so that we can see him."

King let out a deep sigh and replied, "Both of you can see him but before that I need to explain something very important about his plight."

Plight? What do you mean by that?

King, "He is fine now. I mean doctor had checked on him and had given some medication to rest. But...."

Medication? What happen to him?

She then tries to go in front but King blocks her way again.

Aaliya, "King! Why are you blocking our way? We are really worried now! Just let us to see him!"

King had no choice other than pulling both the girls out of the place and said, "Listen! He is mentally disturbed. In fact, he is not responding to Dadi or Ma."

Aaliya, "They are here?"

King, "Abhi was in his house just now. I brought him there first after finding him in a garage. He was in a bad state and once he was at his house, he was not talking to anyone. So I called the doctor to check on him and he said, it seems it will take sometime for Abhi to be back to be normal."

So you brought him here so that Dadi and his Ma won't get worried seeing his plight?

King,"Yes it was hard to convince them but...."

I want to see him!

King, "He is sleeping Pragya.... Try to understand...."

I just want to see him and you also try to understand that with this idea of yours, I don't think it will work out as he is supposed to be with his family to get back to normal!

Aaliya, "I agree with her. But let's not argue about this now. We will see Bhai first then we will discuss about this later.

King nods his head as yes and allows the girls to go and see Abhi.

They both entered the room and saw Abhi sleeping soundly.

He really looks very weak. What happened to him? What made him to be mentally disturbed?

She thought looking at Abhi while crying silently.

The same emotions prevailed with Aaliya and hoped her Bhai will be fine soon.

Aaliya left the room first leaving Pragya alone. Aaliya hugged King for comfort and cried.

Meanwhile, Pragya caressed Abhi's forehead affectionately and kissed him before leaving the room.

Sneek peek to next part,

He is acting. But why?

Purab, "Pragya Di, What makes you feel he is acting? I don't think he is acting as he is not the kind of a person who will act and make his loved ones worried."

I also know that Purab but after noticing the things happening closely then it is very evident that he is acting.

Purab looks confused and Pragya tells, I would have seek help from King or Aaliya.... But no.... I feel either one of them is supporting Abhi in his acting.

Purab, "Pragya di.... I really don't understand.... All I can say is.... Tell me what I have to do as I have faith in you that you will not do anything to hurt anyone."

Pragya smiles lightly in response and tells what he have to do.

Hearing it he widens his eyes in shock.

Thank you for reading! I was busy with some work and that's why couldn't update. I am still busy but will try to update whenever possible. I am extremely sorry for the late update.
