Manvi's POV

I hugged him tightly, finally, he was in front of my eyes. I heard his painful sound, I parted the hug. He was in pain, and I could feel his pain. I was seeing him after ages, I want this moment to stop here right now.

I cupped his face "you are alive. I knew it everyone said you are dead but my heart denied this"

He wiped my tears and said emotionally "you came to find me? in this condition, my Manvi who was clumsy girl became so brave?"

I nodded in yes and said "all because of you and my baby was with me"

He kept his hand on my belly and smiled with teary eyes. "our baby.." he spoke. I could see the happiness in his eyes.

I was confused, he was kidnapped before the wedding then how can he say it is our baby. Is he Amjad Khan?

"Aarav.. you were kidnapped before our wedding then it's not your baby," I said in a straight tone.

Before he could say something, the man came and said "Dost, here is local clothes were this we must look like Muslims"

Aarav took it and smiled. He kissed my forehead and said "I will be back." and went out of the van.

I watched him, he was talking to other prisoners. They folded there hands in front of him and some even touched his feet for the escape from the prison. I smiled seeing such respect he had gained.

I was in dilemma was he my Aarav or Amjad? I stepped out of the van saw them discussing the plan to escape.

Aarav spoke "We have to reach a line of control, the problem we will have with Pakistani army the gate must be opened once it is open, our army will let us in"

"But how is this possible?" the man asked.

"I know few agents who can contract Indian Army they will open the border for us.. that is not a problem," Aarav said assuringly.

He is my Aarav, not any Amjad. He said "we have to reach Kashmir line of control as soon as possible and before that, we need to find a place to hide"

I told him about Azad's house, but he denied as Azad is killed and they can easily track us there.

For the night, we stayed here.

Aarav was standing at the corner, I went to him and kept my hand on his shoulder. He turned and eyed me with teary eyes.

I asked, "what happened?"

"I thought I will never be able to see you again and live life with your memories," he said holding my hand and making me sit on the stairs.

I smiled and said "no I love you how can I let you suffer like other cases, the government will take 15 to 16 years to get back and I want my child father to be with her every single step she takes" I was in tears.

He wiped my tears and assured me "we will raise her together. Our little happiness Khushi"

I smiled and said, "what if it is a boy?"

He denied and said 'princess first then boy"

The smile vanished from my face hearing this. I wanted to reveal something to him but thought the situation is not right.

He kept his head on my belly and listened to the heartbeat of the child.

"Sorry, Papa was not here but now. He will take care of you and your Mumma.." he spoke

I was trying hard to control my emotions.

He then looked at me and cupped my face "I love you. More than my own life"

I smiled and replied "And you are my life. My love for you is selfless Aarav"

"I know. And you have proved it" he said pulling me into his embrace. I was craving for this moment for long. We remained in the hug and just slept in each other embrace.

The next morning, I woke up and could not find Aarav anywhere. I panicked, and shouted "Aarav.."

Just then a man came and told me "he has gone to find a place for us to hide don't worry sister"

I smiled, after an hour Aarav returned. We all boarded into the van and left the place.

"I don't understand.. why the hell RAW agents are not responding to me," he said angrily.

"because you are dead" I replied.

He gave me a look and smiled sarcastically. Within a few hours, we reached a new place of the hideout, Aarav showed the map and made the plan.

"if we all stay together it will be easy for them to find us, we all will form a group of 5 and meet on the border at night tomorrow" Aarav exclaimed.

They covered their faces with blankets and 10 of them left the place. Jay one of them said "I will get something to eat"

I sat down on the stairs and it was getting difficult for me to breath. Aarav gave me water to drink, I drank it and kept my head on his shoulder, he smeared my head. I just could not believe it, I found him.

My journey to take him back is about to end, but there were still many questions in my mind. It is not the right time to ask, but I will ask once we cross the border.

Jay came running and said "Aarav... I saw the news, they showed a pregnant lady escaped with 15 Indian prisoners"

I was shocked hearing this, Aarav glanced at me and then stood up. Other three came, and said "What we will do now?? they are searching for pregnant woman and we will be caught"

"relax.. nothing will happen we will cross the border soon" Aarav assured them.

One of them was scared and protested "they will kill us. Leave her here and go"

Aarav shouted "shut up, she came here to take me and I freed you all. if she was not here, you all would have been suffering inside the jail"

A smile appeared on my face hearing him. The man apologized, we heard a police siren. Everyone ran towards the van, I stood up and ran to the van. I tripped and was about to fell but Aarav grabbed me tightly. He made me sit in and the bullet hit his arm. He shouted in pain "move..."

Jay drove the van, he kept his head on the backrest and closed his eyes. Firoz another prisoner removed his bullet with the knife and he shouted aloud. I felt his pain and tears brimmed down my eyes.

Firoz assured me "he is fine.." I smiled.

We reached Kashmir, there was an abandoned house. We entered inside, Aarav was critical. Jay made him lay on the floor.

"Aarav.. open your eyes" Jay spoke.

Aarav was hardly responding. I panicked, Jay tied the cloth on his wound. Finally, after an hour Aarav opened his eyes and I had a sigh of relief.

Firoz informed "they have tightened the security on the border"

Aarav stood up and questioned "Manvi from where did you get those men?"

I told him about the place, he wanted to go there and get some guns. I denied "no.. you"

He cupped my face and assured me "I will return nothing will happen"

He said to Firoz "take care of her."

He nodded, Jay and Aarav left to get weapons. My eyes feel on Aarav's bag. I opened it and saw something.

Aarav's POV

I reached the place, collected all the guns and some hand grande. The police arrived and started firing at us. I hide and fired back at them, I was a sharpshooter and few of them were down.

After 10 minutes of firing, I saw all of them on the floor. I and Jay escaped the place as soon as possible. I reached back to the hideout and saw Manvi sitting at the corner.

She glanced at me and asked "you are Amjad, not my Aarav"

I was shocked by hearing her. I said "Manvi.." and touched her, but she stepped back.

"No. you are Amjad" she screamed aloud.

Then, I saw a letter in her hand. She read it "I am bad at cooking, I am pregnant, this is after marriage and my Aarav was kidnapped before the wedding" she shouted in tears.

I gave her a look, tears brimmed down my eyes. I tried to explain it. "Manvi listen. I am not Amjad I am Aarav"

She denied "no... Ahana told me everything you are lying you killed my Aarav I will kill you" she snatched the gun from Jay and pointed it towards me.

She fired it towards me and I closed my eyes.

🤣😝 Hope you are not shocked again...
