She opened her eyes and found his face just few inches away from hers. She placed her hand infront of her face when she realised that he was about to kiss her.

"Nooo!!!", She panicked as she pushed him away and got down swiftly from the bed.

"Ouuucchhhhh!!", He shrieked.

She turned and looked at him holding his chest. She had pushed him by his chest unknowingly.

Sana, you hurt him. It isn't his fault. For him you are his wife.

"Sidharth? Oh God! I am sorry. Let me see.", She says feeling guilty.

"No Sana, please go away!", He shovelled her away with his one hand while with other he held his chest.

"I am very very sorry Sidharth. Please please please!! Please let me see.", She pleaded with tears.

"No, I am fine. And I am sorry for whatever I was doing. Please go away.", He yelled loudly without looking at her.

"No, I won't. I am guilty and I have to look at it now.", She yelled back at him more loudly.

He put down his weapons and allowed her to come closer. He didn't wanted to look into her eyes so he looked down but then he realised that she was just wearing a huge shirt which was exposing her thighs. He shifted his vision from her to the wall on the side. She realised her state and quickly wrapped the additional duvet lying on the bed around her waist.

She then unbuttoned his sweater and shirt. There was some blood spotting on the bandage. She quickly pulled out the bag in which she had kept the fresh bandages. She applied medicine and quickly did the dressing of the wound. All this time, she held her tears back.

Once done, she helped him lie down on the bed and closed the balcony door.

"If you need anything, please call me.", She said with her head down as she picked up her phone lying on the bed and went back upstairs to her room. She quickly got dressed and glanced at Manvi sleeping in her cradle. She went down and asked Manju to look after Manvi and went out of the mansion.

She walked a few distance into wood forest and sat on the log of the fallen tree. She then unlocked and looked at her phone screen. The same heart emoticon was beating. Tears starts forming in her eyes and she looked up at the sky amidst those tall trees.

"Agastyaaaa.... Agastyaaaa.... Agastyaaaa....", She stood up and screamed his name on top of her voice right from her lungs which went unheard by anyone in that jungle. The only witness to her breakdown were the mute trees and the blue sky. She cried her heart aloud without fearing anyone who would hear, interfere or stop her from doing so.

It was her piled up emotions from a whole month which erupted like a suppressed volcano from years.

"I am sorry Agastya, my love for you isn't letting you go. We needed you with us now and forever but you left us. When your heart was transplanted into Sidharth, I would have let you go but his memory loss filled me with greed. I thought probably I can keep your heart which you always said belonged to me. The greed turned into stubbornness when I saw Manvi also find her solace in his arms listening to your heart beat.

I gave him our memories by replacing your name with his to instill a thought that he is married to me. But I failed to foresee the consequences of it. I played with his mind to keep your heart with me forever and now when he came closer to me, I am scared of losing myself in the fight to keep you alive.
