Ragini was visibly hurt by the family's reaction of her fear, she couldn't believe it that they don't trust her. What hurts her more was that, even Swara didn't trusted her.

Laksh at the other side too was hell angry on the stand of his family.

"Ragini come, they won't change. We will have our food at our room, after that I will come to the office, there is no need to wait for me. I have my own car."

Laksh hold Ragini's hand, he left the hall with her, back in their room, "Ragini are you okay?"

Ragini lowers her head,"Laksh, why they don't trust me? Have I committed a crime telling them my inner feelings? I really don't wanted to hurt anyone, but why do I have to suffer?"

Laksh shook his head,"Ragini are you mad? I told you I trust you no matter what they say, you are right!" Laksh hold her hand consoling her with careand love, "I will kiss your hand now, okay?"

Ragini smiles, "Do I have an option to say no?"

Laskh stopped, he stroke the hand with his finger, "of course you have the right to say no, to anyone and everyone." The little touch of his finger gave her goosebumps and the words filled her heart with heat.

"Thank you Laksh for trusting me and standing by my side. I know it's not easy to go against the family, but I don't know what to do. You have seen me the couple of days, I can't take it anymore."

Laksh cups her face, "I know," he kissed her forehead and left after having the breakfast with her.

"Eat something don't wait for me, I might work longer," he said at last to her.

Ragini was avoiding the family, she doesn't wanted to get hurt by them neither wanted she go on a controversy with them. I have fruits here, I will eat them and then I will read a book. I'm so happy he got the little library for me.

Ragini ate of the fruits she had, she was very happy and liked the sunny day, she could feel the sun rays on her face and went inside the study room.

Laksh had shown her, how to close the door from inside, it was easy to learn, but she made it difficult for him to explain.

Ragini was smiling remembering it.

"Haaw Laksh I can close the door, How?" She asked him confused, "you know I can't see anything."

Laksh knew about it, "very funny Ragini, don't act like this and come over here to me."

Ragini smiled, "what will I get? Don't tell me a lecture in closing the door."

Laksh was shocked, "you have changed Mrs. Ragini Lakshya Maheshwari."

Ragini was grinning all the time, "okay show me."

Laksh hold her hand and moved them slowly to the knob, "here is an easy mechanism, she push the button in turn the knob to your left, you will hear a sound." The way he hold her and talked her gave her another moment of closeness.

Yes, Laksh there was the sound. Now I feel save.

Ragini was searching on Laksh desk for his files, he is so lazy and nowadays she has the fear of being unable to handle it, she sat on his chair and felt everything.

Ragini widen her eyes, she was holding a book in her hand, she slowly moves it to her and opens it, there she noticed a loose paper, she took it in her hands.

"What? Has he wrote that for me?" She was touched by his gesture, she went though the paper and felt the blind language on it, the dots were clear for her.

📝 Dear Ragini

I know I have made many mistakes in the past, but trust me I have changed for you. I'm not sure if I'm using the blind language in correct way, but I want to show you I'm there and ready to make everything possible for you...

.... ... ....

"It's incomplete?"

Yes, it's incomplete, Laksh is still learning and needs his time to write a letter to his wife, but has come this far and won't let anyone ruin his work. He wants to make it perfect.

"That's the reason why you are so busy, you are learning the blind language for me." She was happy, her eyes were filled with tears of happiness. Laksh you had said it, you want to heal my broken heart, nowadays I don't feel it, that it's broken. I feel it's healing, thank you.

It was late in the evening and Laksh had returned home, he found Ragini waiting for him holding the letter in her hands, he felt bad.

"Oh no, you found it, but it's not completed." Laksh was unhappy, but Ragini couldn't see it only sense it.

"Please Laksh, don't be upset. I don't wanted to keep it from you that I found it, but I want to request you something."

Laksh frowns, "what?"

Ragini smiles, she stood up and touched him on his shoulder, "could you please write me daily?"

Laksh was looking into her eyes, those empty eyes were slowly feeling with life, "yes, Ragini I will write you daily. But I'm still learning I might only use three letters... you know I can write three letters perfectly."

Ragini nodded and could imagine which letters he meant, "they would be enough." She comes closer on her tiptoes, moving her head to his cheek, she placed a kiss on his cheek and made him surprised.

Laksh was smiling, "thank you," he said with a squeaky voice.

"Now, go and take a shower, then we will eat something."

Laksh nodded, "whatever you say madam. Wait what, You didn't had your food yet? I told you not wait for me."

Ragini shrugged, "listen mister, I wouldn't have waited for you, you would never have got the kiss."

Laksh agreed and left to take a shower.

There was a knock, Ragini shook her head, "at this time only the family can be here." She took a deep breath and opened the door.

"Ragini can we come in?" The voice of Swara was to hear, Ragini nodded and moved aside.

AP took the hand of Ragini, "I will close the door, you don't worry."

Ragini frowns, she had no idea that it was AP with Swara, but it wasn't only them.

"Ragini, we are here to talk to you." Pari said.

"We know it's a difficult time for you," Adarsh spoke to her, "but in front of Uttara it's not easy for us either."

"Haan Ragini, trust us. We do trust you!" Sanskaar said, the moment Laksh comes out of the washroom in just a towel.

Ragini got feared, she heard the opening door and hugged Laksh tightly, "Ragini what's wrong?" Laksh gaze fall on his family, "What are you all doing here?"

"Laksh, we are here to support Ragini." DP said to his son, what shocked him.

"But in the morning you were against us."

AP shook her head, "at that moment we were against you cause of Uttara, she is young and influenceable, we can't take the risk to let her go out of our control."

Sujata comes near, very slowly and with care, "Ragini this family has done many crimes on you, how can we think you would go against us? Your fear is right, we have noticed a change in you and weren't sure why and how, I know Uttara is my daughter, but your no less to me."

"Ragini we want to apologise to you for our reactions and want to ask you to trust us. We can't go against him without evidences or proves. I'm sure Uttara has talked to him and warned him." RP said to her and Ragini looked at Laksh, she was listening to his heartbeat, it raced in anger and slowed down in understanding.

"Right, if you all had given us right and stood by us, he would play the game against Ragini. Now he will think you are with him and against us. He will do a mistake, but my wife would be his prey." His anger raised again, a fist was made.

DP shook his head, "never would we make her as a prey. She is your wife and our daughter-in-law. Ragini will be under watch by everyone of us, you both have to trust us."

Laksh hold Ragini, "it makes sense, to open the eyes of Uttara we need evidences. Without them our accusations are baseless."

Ragini nodded, "I want to be the prey."

"What?!" They all reacted the same way, "no Ragini, you want be the prey!" Swa_Lak said in union.

Ragini cups his face, "but if I won't, then, how will we catch him red handed?"

"By trapping him?" Laksh said.

Ragini shook her head, "that can be too late. Uttara is in love with him, he might be fooling her and you don't know what she will do for him to make him believe she is loyal toward him."

Laksh frowns, "I don't want to risk you for her foolishness behaviour, whatever she does, she does on her own, it's not your problem."

"It is, you are my Husband and she is your cousin sister, everything to you matters to me. I'm your family like she is, I can't risk anything." She was determined and all looked at Swara.

"I thought you would react like this, the whole day you avoided us and we too wanted to give you time to cool down, but we don't want you to be a prey. Trust me he will do a mistake and about Uttara, we will keep an eye on her too, she has to follow up the rules we will put on her."

Ragini shook her head, "what rules? She will meet him at college, there is everything possible. We will do it as I say, you all will keep ignoring me and be against me. Laksh you will be on work as if nothing had happened, Rajat is a permanent guest here, he will come and then we will caught I know we will."

Laksh shook his head, "no, you didn't realised that the whole family is here, how will you find out that he is here?"

Ragini smiles, "fragrance, Papa ji and Uncle use the same brand, Sanskaar has a new one and Adarsh bhaiya I haven't smell. But I will learn them all and you know what, the only one I have, no, not have. But the only one who has a right to be close to me is you. Your fragrance will never change, cause I don't just smell your perfume I inhale you." Ragini was looking at him, he knows what she means, he agreed, "fine. We will do as you say."

"Laksh?" Swara was protesting but Laksh shook his head, they all left and Laksh was changing.

"Wear something light, no shirt."

Laksh took a deep breath, "you will kill me someday." He came wearing a loose trouser and sat next to her.

"Laksh can I feel your face again?"

Laksh took her hands, "of course, I beg you to do that."

Ragini smiles, she sat on his lap making again surprise and touched his face, each part of it with care...
