Seema's POV 

Why? Why is it always me..? Why am I being targetted by everyone? I never thought that Aaranya would also shout on me. The moment she yelled on me all those bitter memories which I try hard to forget once again flashed before my eyes killing my already bruised soul. Those words, memories, slaps, burns, everything everything came before my eyes. No matter how hard I try.. they never leave my trail. Wherever I go those invisible demons follow me!

Okay Seema even this will pass.. don't lose hope...concentrate on achieving your dreams. I heard my inner voice and wiped off my tears and once again put that 'smiling' facade to fool everyone else along with me.

 -At Night-

It was 8 in the night when Karan and Krish came back home. As they entered the mansion they saw Aryan and Aaranya watching TV in the living room, and Meera was no where to be found. They settled themselves in the couch next to the brother sister duo. Aryan greeted the brothers while Aaranya didn't acknowledge their presence at all. Krish and Karan understood she was being annoyed at them for the office incident and decided to cheer her up.

"Kutty.. I'm sorry.. sorry for being harsh in the office. Kutty understand one thing.. there we both are employers, whatever we do there will affect the company's reputation.. that's why I was being little strict and harsh towards you today.. ok..I accept the way I scolded you was wrong, but my intention wasn't" Karan said holding his ears facing her.

"Little strict?" she huffed and turned her face towards the other side.

"Okay.. I was very strict.. now I'm sorry.. sorry, sorry" he starts tickling her and she eventually gives in and accepts his apology.

"o-okay I forgive you" she says breathlessly. Karan stops tickling her, gives a million dollar smile and side hugs her.
Krish smiles warmly looking at their bond and heaves a sigh of relief.
"From tomorrow you can join as an intern in the accounts department" Krish breaks the good news to her and she smiles brightly hearing him. Aryan & Karan claps for her and congratulates her.
"Thank you so much Kangaroo!" She utters and clings on to him again. At the very moment Meera comes out of her room and sees this scene and smacks her head in dismay. She doesn't like the way Aaranya behaves around the brothers and is worried as no one sees her perspective of Aaranya.

"I'll be right back" Karan excuses himself and goes to the Kitchen. There he saw Seema preparing for dinner and sighs. He is worried for her.
Because from the day she has stepped in to this house she has always been in the kitchen or doing some other work and doesn't enjoy any fun time with them like Meera. He takes a glass of water from the water dispenser and notices that Seema was having deep thoughts and was mentally absent from there.

"Bhabhi?" He calls her. But there is no reply from her at all.

"Bhabhi..?" He calls her once again nudging her slightly. She stumbles back a little and bumps in to Karan accidentally and he drops the water tumbler on himself.

"Sorry.. sorry.. I didn't mean to.. sorry I- my mind was somewhere else.. Please.. don't shout.. I won't repeat this sorry.. sorry.. sorry for being clumsy.." she panics looking at his water spilled shirt and keeps on apologizing. She was having a acute panic attack.

"Bhabhi!! Bhabhi! It's fine.. look at me please.. it's fine.. breathe.. take a deep breath..calm down.. relax" Karan tries to stop her, thankfully she recovers from it quickly.

Once he was assured that she is fine, he slowly asks her
"Bhabhi..? You were having panick attacks? I'll call the doctor--"

"No Karan I'm absolutely fine" she tries to put on a fake smile.
