Viraj injects Manvi sadative, he hears a jeep stopping sound. He thinks "oh no bhai wapas kaise aa gaye" he moves out in hurry locks the door.

Vineet rings the bell, Viraj opens the door and smiles "bhai aap wapas kaise aa gaye?"

Vineet smiled "wo socha tumhare saath thoda time aur spend kar lun" he moved in pushing him a side.

Ruhana also entered inside, Ruhana asked "tum akele rehte ho yahan?"

Viraj nodded in yes "haan aur kaun rahega mere saath"

Manvi heard Ruhana's voice, she wanted to shout out loud but could not. She drags herself to the table and shakes it the glass drops down on the floor.

Ruhana and Vineet heard the sound, Vineet asked "andar aawaz kaisi?"

Viraj panics and says "kuch nhi bhai"

Manvi tried again, she dropped the flower vase by shaking the table. Vineet was sure now something or someone is inside the room "Andar kuch hai"

He tried to move to see but Viraj stops him.. and shouts "nhi bhai kuch nhi andar.. aap nhi jaoge"

Ruhana doubts were making a clear way now and said "Vineet I am sure kuch to hai please check karo ho sakta hai.. wo"

Vineet moves to the room but it was lock, he goes to viraj and says "give me the key!"

Viraj says no... "nahi.."

Vineet looks at him with anger and shouted "chabi do.."

Viraj did not gave the key "nahi bhai maine kaha na kuch nhi hai andar"

Vineet slaps him and shouted "chabi"

Viraj hands him the key as he could not deny him further. Vineet opens the door and gets shocked seeing the scenario, he could not believe his eyes. He turned back to Viraj and looked at him with much anger. He moved into the room, Ruhana stood at the door and was shocked seeing her sister lying on the floor "Mannu" she could only utter.

Vineet opened up Manvi's ropes and removed the cloth from her mouth. He looked at her condition was feeling so sympathetic. He held her wrist and checks her pulse which were not so stable. He immediately calls the ambulance.

Ruhana then rushes to Manvi and takes her head on her lap, tears brimmed down her eyes as she was seeing her after months and that too in this worst condition "mannu" she called.

She looked at Vineet and shouted "Vineet ab bolo tumhara khud ka bhai zimedar hai ye sab ke liye saza doge use?"

Manvi who was in half conscious, she shuts her eyes completely hearing the last words Ruhana said.

Ruhana shouted "pehle tum aur ab tumhara bhai mere behen ko itne din mujhse door rakha isne"

Vineet looks at her, then moved to Viraj. Viraj looks at him and was about to say something, Vineet slapped him hard on his face. Viraj looked on shockingly, Vineet shouted "kya hai yeh?"

Viraj smiles and says "bhaiya.. I love her.. yeh yaha se kahi nhi jayegi"

Vineet was just speechless then shouts at him "tum paagal ho.. samjhe mujhe tumhe wapas laana hi nhi chahiye tha.."

"nahi bhai main paagal nhi hoon I love her.. she is mine mere saath rahegi wo yahan aap jayie yahan se" Viraj held his hand and tried to push him out. Vineet jerked his hand away.

"bas Viraj chup karke khade raho yahan" Vineet shouted.

Vineet hears ambulance's voice. Some of his team members also arrive. Vineet ordered "jab tak main wapas na aau Viraj ko kahi jaane mat dena leke jao isey police station"

Viraj denies and requested "nhi bhai aap mujhe jail nhi bejh sakte bhai hoon main aapka"

Vineet looked at him and then turns to other side. Yes, he was his brother but for now he was a kidnapper and shouted "shinde take him away"

Shinde puts handcuffs on his hand, Viraj tries to free himself other officers grabs him. Viraj shouted "nahi bhai please aap mere saath aisa mat karo usko mat bejho mujhse door"

Shinde and other took him from there, Vineet closed his eyes. He heard Ruhana's voice, he moved back into the room.

Ruhana said "mannu ankhein khol na.. dekh aa gayi hoon main"

Vineet spoke up "Ruhana Ambulance aa gayi hai humhe ise hospital leke jaana hoga"

The ward boys carried Manvi into the ambulance. Ruhana sat inside along with her holding her hand tightly. Vineet sat on jeep and followed the ambulance.

Ruhana kept her hand on her forehead which was covered in blood. Tears were in her eyes "mannu.. sab thik hoga haan"

Within 20 minutes they reached city hospital. Vineet got down from jeep and and shouted "get the stretcher"

The wardens comes with stretcher and Manvi was carried on it into the hospital. She was taken to operation theatre. Ruhana did not let go her hand, the nurse said "mam aap andar nhi aa sakti hai"

Ruhana glanced at Manvi and then left her hand. She was taken to operation theatre.

Ruhana leans back against the wall, she was so much worried for her. Vineet kept his hand on her shoulder, Ruhana places her head on his chest and cries "mannu..."

"kuch nhi hoga usko doctor hai na" Vineet consoled her.

The operation was taken longer time, after wait of 3 hours the door of operation theatre opens and the doctor comes out.

She was Dr. Naina friend of Ruhana. Ruhana asked hurriedly "naina mannu kaisi hai?"

Naina looks at her with anger "no Ruhana she is not fine sabse pehle mujhe police ko phone karna hai"

Vineet spoke up "uski zaroorat nhi hai main ASP Vineet Singhania hoon"

Naina looked at him and then to Ruhana "come with me" she said.

They follow her into the cabin, she tells them to take a seat. The nurse comes with some reports and hands to Naina.

Naina carefully looks at them, Ruhana was getting impatient now. She asked "baat kya hai bolo na?"

Naina looked at her and said "sach sunogi?"

"haan batao Naina kya hai? Mannu thik hai na?" she asked in concern.

Naina looks at her and says seriously "Ruhana your sister is being molested and raped"

They were shocked, Ruhana fell back with a thud. Naina continues "Ek baar nahi kayi baar.. itna hi nhi bahut torture kiya gaya hai use.."

Naina spoke up "she need special care Ruhana teen mahine tak wo iss haal mein thi"

Ruhana starts crying, Vineet keeps his hand on her shoulder. Ruhana just gets up and rushes to the ICU where her sister was.

She moved inside, Manvi was sitll unconscious. A few drips were attached on her hands and oxygen mask was also attached. She took baby steps towards her and recalled what Naina told her..

She sat on the stool which was next to her, tears drops escaped her eyes seeing her little sister like that.

A few voices echoed in her ears "Di.. jab tak aap mere saath ho mannu ko kuch nhi ho sakta"

"main aur aap milke sambhal lenge Anvi ko"

"Di main aapko kahi nhi chodke jaane wali hoon samjhe aap"

"I am sorry.. bahut der kardi na maine.. aane mein.. itna sab ho gaya.." caressing her head which was covered with the white bandage now. She held her hand and placed a kiss on her palm.

She then hide her face on the bed beside her hand and cries.  

Ruhana's home

Shinde was with Anvi, she asked "kaha hai mumma? aur police wale uncle kaha hai?"

Shinde replied "beta wo aapki maasi mil gayi hai na to unke saath hai wo"

Anvi smiled broadly "yaay maasi mil gayi chalyie mujhe waha leke chalyie Anvi ko jaana hai maasi ko dekhna hai" 

Shinde spoke up "beta wo aa jayenge" 

Anvi gets angry and says stubbornly "nhi Anvi ko jaana hai.." she starts to run and Shinde run behind her. 

"are ruko beta.." Shinde said. 

Anvi stopped and giggled seeing his panting and asked "aap leke chal rahe ho na? ya main aapko aur bhagau" 

Shinde looked at her and said "haan chal raha hoon tumhe nhi sambhal sakta main.. meri parade kara di tumne" 

Anvi smiled, Shinde took her to hospital.
