After giving her medicine, arhaan helped her to lay down.hoor clutched his shirt, silently asking him to lay down beside her .it was first time, she didnt have to feel loneliness.there was someone beside her, taking care of her .

Arhaan understood it and pulled her into his arms , he kept massaging her head , her shoulders.soon hoor fell asleep, arhaan placed a kiss on her forehead, he was stressed about the marks he had felt on her back.

By evening , hoor was feeling fine .they decided to stay inside and watch a movie .hoor could feel the tension rolling off arhaan .

Once the movie finished, hoor looked at arhaan " is everything okay? " she asked, looking at him with her big innocent eyes .

" will u lift your shirt for me ? " arhaan said shocking hoor." I..i felt the marks " he said , but hoor still didnt move, he arms wrapped around her waist .it was difficult for her, the topic so painful, that she never let anyone else know, not that anyone cared .

" please....." arhaan said with painfilled eyes , hoor couldnt avoid it anymore .she closed her eyes, lifting her shirt to her ribs .

She bit her lips, waiting for his reaction.she wasnt ready to face his dislike for her body, it would shatter her.she was thinking the worse, when she felt soft lips on her tummy , kissing along a scar .

Arhaan was talking about her back scars , but when she lifted her shirt , he found scars on her tummy also.it looked like someone had cut her.

Hoor opened her eyes, feeling his lips.she saw tears in his eyes, hoor felt her heart shattering.she cupped his face ." Please dont....." she said , her shirt already covering her tummy as she moved her hands to his cheeks .

" sorry ! You had to see me like this " she said as if it was her fault, as if she was ashamed of it.

" hoor! They are a part of you , i can never find a thing in you, anything less than lovely.i am in pain, because , i wasnt there to protect you when this happened ." He said, the truth in his voice relaxing hoor .

" it wont happen again " hoor said, from the marks he felt on her back, he could tell that it wasnt her own doings ." Who did it ? " the hatred in his voice was clear .he wanted to rip that person apart who hurt her .

Hoor still didnt say anything , she didnt know how to confess it .

" was it your stepmother? " he asked barely containing his emotions .

Hoor quickly shooked her head , arhaan cupped her face " please say it " he said almost begging .

Saying the truth was really hard for her, she looked in his eyes, seeking his support " it..it was my mother " she said. Arhaan stopped breathing, he felt like he heard wrong .

" sorry ?" He asked .

" my mother" she said again .
