Author's POV

"ahhh.. mamma it hurts" cried Durga

"it's over baby don't cry," said Jaya

"Look angel now it's over. And don't cry these are just small scratches you are a strong girl, strong girls don't cry for these small things. We, women, are made for way much more pain than this unlike these weak men's. So don't cry and be proud to be a girl." said the nurse who was applying medicine to Durga's scratches smiling at her.

"Yes aunty my sissy is so strong," said Druv kissing Durga

Durga just smiled at them she was still in the shock by what she witnessed in her home. Her grandma (Kamala) never raised a hand at her, in fact, no one ever did that to her not even harsh words towards her. She was everyone's, sweetheart.

"Baby are you ok?" asked Jaya

Durga just nodded her head

"Mam I can clearly say that these scratches are not from falling and those fingerprints in her cheeks really say another story," said the doctor

"Sorry doctor it was just a misunderstanding and will not happen again," said Divya

" Not happen again!! what happened is a child abuse mam. This child is so fragile for these things, please keep her safe from whatever it is. If this happens again then I'm warning you guys that no one can stop me from complaining this to the police." said Dr.

"it will not happen again Dr. I promise. thank you Dr" said Jaya

"ok take care angel," said Dr caressing Durga's hair. Durga nodded and went to her mother.

Kumar took Durga in his hands and went to the ice-cream parlor with the others "Baby which one do you want?" he asked Durga

"Choco bar," said Durga "me too," said Nithya "me three," said Nithin "me four," said Druv

Kumar smiled at the children and got Choco bars for each of them.

Durga tried to put the Choco bar in her mouth. " ahh mamma hurts" she said cupping her cheeks

Jaya looked at her helplessly. " baby this bar is big for your smallmouth if you opened your mouth further it will only hurt you"

"But mamma I want this," she said with teary eyes

"Mamma will buy you this when your cheeks are good. ok, now we can have some cup ice-creams what flavor do you want?" Jaya asked Durga

"Vanilla mamma," said Durga looking at others eating their Choco bar.

"Hey Dudu I too don't want Choco bars it doesn't taste good yuuckk I too want cup ice-cream," said Druv watching his sister's sad face

"Really Druv it's not good?" asked Durga

"Yes, Durga, it's too bad. its good that you didn't eat it" said Nithin throwing his bar away.

"yes Durga I too didn't like it, dad I too want cup ice-cream," said Nithya

The parents looked at their baby's in love. They know that these children are supporting Durga

"ok baby you got that" said Adi

they brought cup ice creams for the children and Jaya feed Durga her ice-cream carefully not letting her open her mouth too much.

"ok guys we can go home," said Kumar and Durga clenched Jaya's hand in fear

"Hey hey, its ok baby. Nothing will happen from now on mamma is here" said Jaya consoling Durga

"Kumar let her come with us. I don't trust your mother man" said Adi
