Ahaan's POV

I was fuming with so much anger that I forgot my phone was on silent. I pulled my phone from the pocket of my jeans and was shocked to see so many notifications from Ishaani.

I opened her messages and my heart started wrenching with pain at the thought of Ishaani. I can't even imagine how much agony and suffering she would be going through.

I sighed and thought to call her on her number instead of leaving a text because I felt the need to talk to her and provide her the reassurance that she is not alone, and I am here for her.

I was about to call her when I heard painful sobs coming from a nearby alley. I became alert and cautious of my surroundings and tried to check if anyone is around me or not.

I couldn't find anyone around me but those loud cries kept on increasing, my heart was pounding loudly and I could sense something was wrong but my mind was being extremely cautious and thoughts like what if this is some prank or danger was surrounding my brain.

Keeping all thoughts aside I went towards that alley without making any disturbance and my mouth was left hanging when I saw what was the reason of those sobs.

Inside the dark alley there was a person who was curled like a ball and was crying her heart out. The lady who was crying had hugged herself tightly and was whispering something while shaking her head.

I didn't know what to do, should I go and console her or should I just mind my own business, I thought.

I still had to call Ish and explain her my point of view that I am not disappointed in her but somehow I didn't felt like leaving this person here alone. What if she is hurt or in some problem?

I ambled towards her and maintained a proper distance between her and myself so that she doesn't get afraid.

"Hey!" I whispered.

I could see her body froze at my sound and she started fidgeting. She was facing the floor and because of that I couldn't see her face.

"I won't hurt you, I promise." I whispered again and I noticed that her sobs were now reduced to sniffles. She slowly raised her head and I was astonished to see that this person who was crying her heart out was none other than Ishaani.

"Hurt? Everyone says that they won't hurt me but look at me----at the end I am the only one who is hurting. He promised that he wouldn't leave me but all his chessy and mushy talks were fake, his promises were fake, everything was a lie." She spoke while staring at the sky which probably seemed more fascinating to her.

"It's too dark right? Just like my life? Way too dark! There is no source of light and the moment I felt that probably my life is going to change, then everything went downhill. I had never felt so free, independent, proud, and ecstatic in my life before, because it was only him who made me feel like this.  He made me love myself, he showed me a world where the only thing that should matter to me is only my comfort, my consent, and my dreams." Ishaani spoke while tears welled up in her eyes.

Was she talking about Shivam? I wondered and felt a sudden spark of jealousy and anguish in my heart.

"When I started loving myself he left me alone. When I thought that I would be finally happy and probably be in love---- he left me. When I thought that probably he would be my true love--he left me." Ishaani whispered and started sobbing again.

I opened my mouth to speak something but was caught off-guard when I heard her next words.

"Why Aan why? Why did you left me."

Ishaani sobbed and suddenly fainted making me worried. I was to shocked to comprehend anything further. This means she was crying because of me and for me. All what she said was for me.

My gaze fell on her, and I could see dried tear stains on her cheeks, her nose was red because of excessive crying, although this was not how I wanted her to meet for the first time but I couldn't Ignore the butterflies which I felt going wild inside me.

She was unconscious and was lying in my arms. I carried her up in bridal style and took an oth to fulfill my promises and to heal her wounds.

"Don't worry Ishaani, I won't leave you, never ever. I can't leave you not when we are fated together."
