Apple of your eye- part 23

She was surprised at how her sister was being treated. Did uncle know about this? She had to find uncle soon. She was about to get up and stop this nonsense. But he stopped her and whispered, " Don't go! They might see you."

She blinked at him with disbelief. " My sister is in danger. How can I stand and watch and do nothing? Let me go!", she said , resisting his hold . His grip became tighter with every second. She felt the pain but she couldn't do anything and simply watch her sister being tortured.

Then few minutes of relief came in form of her uncle. At last she was convinced that her sister was no longer in danger. But that was only for few minutes. She saw him grab her sister by her hair and point the revolver on her head.



Her sister saw the last ray of light when she was put to rest forever by her uncle. Her uncle wasn't even moved by her sister death. She wanted to scream which she couldn't do. She was helpless for the first time. The emotions were bursting out and Abhinav knew she would break down any moment.

He rushed her to the army base. They stayed in the jeep for sometime.  " I am sorry! I shouldn't have taken you out. I.. It's okay to cry and I am there for you.", he tried best to consoled her. He was bad at consoling people.. sympathising was something he hadn't learnt to do in life.

She started crying slowly though she didn't want to. She was angry and furious at her uncle but crying only made her feel vulnerable. All that love and respect for her Uncle felt nothing and she wished that she hadn't seen this side of her uncle. "How could he kill his own niece? I hate him!", she cried out her feelings. He held her in his arms and was guilty for showing the real face of her uncle to her.
