I am going to be really very pissed!!

A part of Charan was scared that if guilt kept building up like this, one day Shreya would really run away from them in order to keep them safe. And that was something he cannot afford to happen. After all, he had seen what guilt does to Shreya when it came to her parents…

"I'm so sorry, Charan… I don't know how we really missed it. It was I who sent you guys there… and it happened in one place I was sure you would all be safe… if something had happened to your family… I really don't know…"

Shreya kept mumbling like a broken record all over again as if she never heard Charan consoling her… she really did not hear him. All her head was filled with all the worst-case scenarios all over again… just like the day they had separated.

That fear was paralyzing to Shreya to the point she cannot think of anything past them… or even hear anything.
