"Bloody__" Omkara gritted holding his arm as one of the goons managed to make a sharp cut on his arm. "I am going to kill you."

"Omkara__" Gauri came running towards Omkara as he kicked the goon in his stomach making him wince and fall on the ground. Soon, the police arrived and arrested the goons.

"Omkara__ you are having a cut." Gauri cried holding Omkara's hand.

"It's a small cut, I am fine." Omkara managed to smile through his pain as he wiped Gauri's tears.

"No, it's not a small cut, see, it's bleeding." Gauri said as more tears began to fill her eyes seeing Omkara in pain.

"Let's go home and I will call doctor to check my wound." Omkara said cupping Gauri's face, who was crying looking at Omkara's wound.

"What happened?" Shivaay and Anika asked as soon as they reached Omkara's apartment after getting a call from a crying Gauri.

"Gauri, what happened? Why we're you crying? Are you hurt?" Anika bombarded Gauri with questions as soon as she opened the door of Omkara's apartment.

"I am fine." Gauri hiccuped.

"Then why are you crying, kid?" Shivaay asked softly.

"Omkara__" Gauri said tears brimming in her eyes.

"What happened to Omkara?" Shivaay panicked.

"Omkara is hurt." Gauri cried hugging Anika as Shivaay ran inside to check upon his brother.

"Don't cry." Anika said wiping Gauri's tears, "let's go and see, Omkara." She said walking in the direction Shivaay left.

"___worry Shivaay, it's just a cut, nothing serious." Omkara said to a furious looking Shivaay.

"I am not gonna let those bloody moth___" Shivaay stopped as he saw Gauri and Anika enter inside the room, "morons, I will make sure they get punished." Shivaay said taking out his phone and walking towards the balcony to make a call, nodding at Anika.

"How are you, Omkara?" Anika asked as she walked near Omkara.

"I am fine, Anika."

"No, he got a cut and it's bleeding." Gauri sniffed pulling on Omkara's shirt to reveal his cut.

"Gauri, baby, I am fine, don't cry." Omkara said pulling Gauri into a hug with his good hand.

"Seems like it needs stitches, Omkara." Anika said examining the cut, "But thank god, it's not serious."

"Stitch it up, Anika." Omkara nodded.

"Give me a minute, I will go and grab my medicine kit." Anika said walking out of the room.

"Ahhh, please." Gauri cried as Anika began to stitch Omkara's cut.

"It's okay, Gauri. It's not that painful." Omkara said trying hard not to show his pain.

"It's done." Anika said band-aiding Omkara's cut.

"See, it's done." Omkara said showing his hand to Gauri, who was crying wrapping her hands around his other arm hugging it.

"Take these medicines and you will be all good in a week." Anika said packing up her kit.

"Thank you, Anika." Omkara thanked.

Anika nodded smiling.

"I spoke with the higher authorities, they are gonna make sure, those goons get punished." Shivaay said walking inside the room pushing his mobile in his coat pocket.

"Omkara__" Rudra came running inside his room huffing, gasping for air.

"Rudra."

"What happened? I heard the news about you getting attacked?"

"Yes, Rudra. You heard it right." Omkara said showing his band aided arm.

"I am not gonna leave those imbeciles." Rudra said fisting his hands.

"Relax Rudra, everything is taken care of." Shivaay said placing a hand on Rudra's shoulder.

"What happened, Omkara? Who are those guys? Why did they attacked you?" Rudra questioned.

"Oh God, how can someone force a lady like that." Anika gasped.

"They must be punished for their crimes." Rudra agreed.

"But what happened to that girl?" Shivaay asked his brows furrowed.

"We brought her home with us, since she don't have anyone of her own and we can't leave her alone at this hour if night." Omkara said calmly.

"You brought some random girl to your apartment!" Rudra shouted, "you know how dangerous it is, to bring strangers home?"

"Rudra, calm down." Omkara said, "She might be a stranger but she's a girl, How can we leave her alone when she's the one in danger, besides she seemed to be harmless." Omkara explained.

"But, where is she now?" Anika asked looking around.

"She's in the guest room." Omkara said and turned towards Gauri, "Gauri, can you go and ask the girl to come here."

Gauri looked up at Omkara, not willing to leave his side.

"I will be fine, don't worry. Go. " Omkara said pushing Gauri's hair behind her ear.

"Okay." Gauri nodded and walked out of the room.

"Anika, the girl, she seems to be scared of all the sequences that took place." Omkara spoke once Gauri was out of the room, "She was molested and I heard the goon saying that her father sold her."

"Human trafficking!" Rudra shouted, "How horrible her father was."

"Rudra, lower your voice, I don't want Gauri to hear." Omkara said in a low voice.

"Sorry." Rudra mumbled.

"Anika, please speak with her and arrange for a counselling with a good psychiatrist."

"I will take care of her, Omkara. No need to worry, I have a good friend, who deals with this type of cases." Anika assured.

"Don't be scared." Gauri said opening the door for the girl, "Everyone here are good people."

Gauri walked inside the room holding the hand of the girl, who looked a bit taller than Gauri, her black hair was braided, her lean hand gripped Gauri's arm as her body shivered in fear and nervousness by being in a room full of strangers.

Sensing her discomfort Anika stepped ahead walking towards the girl and Gauri.

"Hello, I am Anika Mishra." Anika gave a warm smile trying to ease the girl's tension.

"Hello, I am Bhavya Rathore." The girl said in a barely audible voice looking down at the ground.

"Bhavya, don't be scared, you are in safe hands now. The people who were with you, were taken care of by the police and they will never trouble you again." Anika said placing a hand on Bhavya's shoulder.

"Thank you." Bhavya mumbled with her head still low.

"Feel free around here, Bhavya." Gauri said squeezing Bhavya's hand, "We are friends now."

Bhavya gave a small smile and nodded her head.

"Now, come let me introduce everyone to you." Gauri said pulling Bhavya with her.

"You know Omkara and Anika di already, now meet Shivaay bhaiyya." Gauri said pointing at Shivaay.

"Hello." Bhavya mumbled.

"Hello Bhavya." Shivaay said in a soft tone.

"Meet my best and favourite buddy, Rudra." Gauri said introducing Rudra to Bhavya.

"Hello, I am Rudra." Rudra said.

"Hello, I am Bhavya." Bhavya said looking up at Rudra, her forest green eyes shone like emeralds making Rudra let out an inaudible gasp looking at the beautiful girl in front of him.
