Lost

Writers P.O.V:

It is difficult for Aahana to say her feelings in front of her entire family. At the same time, she does not want to leave Abhay alone in this fight. She wants to take stand with him.  Making her mind he looked at her brother.

"Let us talk inside Nana," Ayush said understanding the looking on her face.

He does not even like the idea of  Abhay standing next to her. But he doesn't want to make her feel like she has no freedom in making life decisions. If he feels Abhay is not good for he will express that, explain things all the pros and cons when she is clear with the situation then she will make her choice.

I will not take advantage of her inability to voice her thoughts 'her innocence' and take away her freedom of choice. 'Not Anymore'   

"What is there to talk inside? Knock some sense into him and throw him out." Aanadh said irritated to look at Abhay. who is standing has an example showing how his impulse decision made His daughter's life.

"Nanna Please," Aahana said quickly in a surprisingly loud voice.

Aanadh got the message loud and clear but he could not digest it. he stood there staring at her but actually not looking at her.

"I want to talk with my daughter first. You leave for now." Aanadh said his voice dull.

"What are you planning when you say you want to talk to her. Are you going to blackmail her emotionally." Abhay asked his voice showed his anger he is trying to hide. which didn't go unnoticed by Aahana.

"There will be no such thing happening. Leave for now as my father said. let us 'as a family' talk things out."Aayush said.

Abhay walked towards Aahana no one stopped already guessing what they are having. 

He stood before Aahana taking her hand with both his hands and looking at her deep in her eyes.

"What do you want me to do? if you just ask I will stay with you in this. or if you want me to give you lone time with your family I will do that too. but if I have to leave I want you to promise that you will be coming with me tomorrow no matter what this idio... these people say. " 

"I will call you Once this is done." She said smilingly. She feeling guilty that if she talked to her family before and then called him, he wouldn't have gotten hit.

"I love you," Abhay said with a warm smile not caring who all are listening to them. Aahana's cousin awed then covered her mouth with hands when another cousin shot her a look.

Abhay turned to leave but stopped in midway to his car.

"If this is going to be a family talk. I want him to leave first. Considering he is a least related person than I am."Abhay said glaring at Karthik.
