Hi friends how are you all ❤

Chapter 4

Next day Yash thought to take Aarti to doctor clinic. A lady doctor did full checkup of Aarti. Yash met doctor alone who is actually his Mami Priya, Radha's younger brother Vyom wife. She is the reason why Radha choose Italy for Yash graduation. She trust her brother and bhabhi a lot so Yash stayed with them. Vyom even helped Yash in business seeing that he is a bright boy who is serious about his career.

"I can suggest you any good psychiatrist but Yash I want to tell you something, Its not always necessary that doctor will cure you. Aarti don't need treatment but a lots of love. Her scar are inside deep into soul and she need someone who reach out to her and show her the beauty of life, in my eyes here nobody better than you" Doctor Priya explain to Yash, she saw them both sometime back in garden where she notice how Yash understand Aarti silence which somewhere make Aarti little comfortable around him. Yash nods thinking that yes Aarti too want to come out of her trauma but living one year inside 4 walls actually closed her mind to real things and also the abuses and harassment she faced by so many men terrified her. Its not easy for her but he will try his best to do whatever is good for her. Yash moved out side where he find Aarti waiting for him.

"Come" Yash hold her hand protectively. Aarti glance at his soft hold as he walked ahead.

Later in evening Yash saw Aarti from his room balcony. She is sitting in garden looking a yellow rose with a soft look, she touched flower carefully as if she don't intended to hurt it. Soon their eyes met Aarti instantly move her fingers away from the rose and left from there. Yash raise hand he want to stop her but no words come out his mouth.

In night Aarti lay in her bed staring roof just thinking about Yash, how he is so different from all men she met in her life, before meeting him she has only one image of men who loves to control women.

Next morning Aarti wakeup and left to washroom as she step out her gaze fall on dressing table where a yellow rose lying. She picked it up and looked around if someone is here but she find nobody. She caressed the rose with a smile on corner of her lips knowing well who keep it here.

Later Aarti was serving tea.

"Thanks" Yash smile as Aarti offer him cup. Suddenly he yell in pain as tea fell on him. Aarti panicked.

"I'm sorry" she almost cried try to wipe his shirt. Yash looked her scared face, he was surprised too because she is speaking.

"I'm so sorry" she move backward scared thinking he gonna scold her or even worst.

"Aarti its okay, see I'm fine" he try to assure her.

"You're not gonna punish me ?" She ask as a lone tear roll down her cheek.

"No why would I punish you, its just an accident" he come forward and clean her face, she stare him amazed.

"Didi what happen ?" Nimki come out of kitchen hearing Aarti voice. Yash step back, Aarti cleaned her face with dupatta.

"Bhai" she saw Yash wet shirt.

"I'll change" he left to his room. Nimki get that tea spill on Yash.

"I'll make another tea, you don't worry didi" Nimki said. Aarti left to her room feeling guilty. Later Yash come downstairs changing fresh clothes.

"Where is Aarti ?" Yash didn't find Aarti.

"I think she left to her room" Nimki hand him a tea cup.

"I'll give her" Yash saw that she is carrying cup. She nods giving him tray.

"Aarti" Yash find Aarti in front of her room window. He forward her cup. She took without even meeting his eyes.

"Why you thought I'll punish you?" Yash ask, she raise head intended to speak but then turn away. Yash come near her.

"Because I never meet real men" Aarti speak looking out of window.

Evening Yash had a huge fight with Arpita as she again try her luck on him, in anger Yash yelled on her which hurt Arpita ego so she back off from the project, she just want to teach him a lessen.

"Yash what wrong with you" Aman barged in Yash cabin.

"Now who will handle Arpita post" Aman was worried.

"You don't have to worry, I'm the boss here" Yash get angry as Aman was shouting on him, he is already in bad mood. Aman was hurt because Yash showed him his real place, they are friends from almost from 6 years but today Yash remind him that he is just Yash secretary.

"Shit, what I'm doing" As Aman leave Yash feel bad at his own behavior. Yash thought to leave before he create more blunder in his anger so he informed his manager before leaving.

Yash reach home only to find Aarti in kitchen, she is filling her water jug. For Yash surprise she give him a small smile, his anger slowly faded off.

"You had your dinner?" Yash ask. She nods no.

"I'll join you in five minutes" telling he left to his room to fresh up. Aarti served food which Nimki already made just some minutes back.

"This taste really different" Yash tasted his fav chhole. Aarti serve him more. He glance at her.

"You made this ?" He ask amazed, she nods yes.

"Wow so delicious" he praised her cooking skills. Aarti blush in happiness. After dinner Yash took Aarti to show his small library.

"You like to read" He ask remembered how some days back he saw her reading an old book in her room. She silently run fingers on books in shelf with a soft smile on her lips. Yash was glad that his guess was right about her liking.

Next day Yash come to Aarti room early in morning.

"Aarti I'm going for jogging to near park would you like to join me" he ask. Aarti was folding her spread, she nods glance at him, he is wearing a track pant with black vest he looks hot. They went to park jogging Yash was talking in between and she was just smiling softly which Yash loves the most. In park some kids meet Aarti. Yash was amazed as she was so sweet with them smiling and talking.

"You loves kids ?" Yash ask as after some time they again jog to home. She didn't said anything her face actually lost colors, Yash regret questioning her.

"I'm sorry if I hurt you" Yash apologized. Aarti left to her room with a blank face.

"Yash you are so stupid" he scold himself for spoiling her mood.

Evening Yash come in his room balcony seeing rainfall and he find Aarti in garden.

"What she is doing alone in rain ?" he went down. Aarti feel someone behind and turn only to find Yash.

"I was pregnant" she speak her eyes are dead. Yash get shock.

"Akash killed my child" she recalled the night when he bring his friend who raped her and later when she beg him crying to not hurt her telling that she was pregnant he kicked her stomach. Tears flow down her cheeks. Yash somehow come out of shock and hold her shoulder, like a broken doll she fall on his chest crying bitterly. Yash grab her back of neck, his own eyes become wet.

"I promise you today, I'll punish each and every person who had hurt you" he protectively hold her close.

"They all will pay for their deeds" he promised to himself.

Next day Aarti was sitting on breakfast table Yash notice she is not having her breakfast.

"Aarti" he filled spoon with poha and bring close to her lips. She open mouth unknown to herself. Yash smile as she eat. Later Yash left to office telling his maid Nimki to not left Aarti alone till he return.

Evening Yash took Aarti out. She notice they're on an ice cream shop. Yash get down car then open her side of door. Aarti step out looking around the place, it actually very peaceful with people enjoying with their families and friends. Yash get an orange ice cream and a chocolate.

"Which one you like ?" He forward to Aarti who is sitting on a branch. She took orange one. Yash also sat with her. While eating a little ice cream fell from Yash.

"Oops" He made a cute face which actually make Aarti smile. To their way back to home Yash switch on his car radio. The song playing is banjaara.

"Jaise koi kinara deta ho sahara,

mujhe woh mila kisi mod par.

Koi raat ka tara karta ho ujala,

waise hi roshan kare woh seher"

Aarti gaze shifted to Yash who is driving car.

"Yes he is really that star of my life who is spreading his light." She thought.

"Dard mere woh bhula hi gaya,

kuch aisa asar hua,

Jeena mujhe firse woh sikha raha"

She keep looking him with so much admiration, its almost a month and each day she seen a new Yash sometimes he is caring, sensitive, loving, protective, mature, emotional, understanding, and most important he is a real man, not like those cold males with huge ego she deal with her all life. Yash caught her looking him and raised his eyebrows. She nods no smiling and turn toward window there start rainfall.

"Jaise barish karde tar,

ya marham dard par,

koi mujhko yoon mila hai,

Jaise banjare ko ghar"

Aarti move hand out of window only to catch some drops. Yash smiled to see her like this actually happy. They reached villa, a watchman holding umbrella open entrance gate. Aarti get down car then Yash, rain is still falling with same peace. They both get fully wet till they reach door but Yash stop Aarti by gripping her wrist. She turn to look him in confusion.

"A rain dance" He forward his hand. She find herself taking a step near. As she give her hand he twirl her around, she smiled just living in this moment, a rain after like age.
