Veer : But I saw her fighting all alone with men , Even With me she wasn’t afraid at all .
Amma : This is what I want to explain . Listen . Every single she has to take some drugs which releases some chemicals in her body . These provides not only the power to face world but also stamina , Anger .
Veer : What !!! Since how long she’s taking medicines , Isn’t it harmful for health .
Amma : It is , I advised her many times, but if she doesn’t have them she would scream , Shout , Or sometimes cry a lot or even faint of fear .
Veer ( His eyes were red ) : How can we stop all this , How can I help her ?
Amma : It’s only you who can help , Only drugs aren’t a solution , If her fear , That is a man , tries to make comfortable, Makes her understand that she is safe . Then may be , Slowly her fear can be reduced .

Afternoon ….
Veer was in his office thinking that Pari hadn’t called him.
Veer : I think I didn’t behaved well today . I should call her once .
He calls her 4 times .
Veer : Why’s she not answering .
He leaves all work and comes to Pari’s house . She wasn’t there . He asked Aunt but she wasn’t there too , Confirmed NGO , But neither there .
He goes to his house and Saws his letter box opened . He goes and picks the letter in there .
It letter was from Pari . He opens it slowly and reads it .
” I know that you love me and today I want to confess that I love you too . I can’t tell you about my past right in front of you . So I’m writing this letter . It all happened when I was 18 . My family was very traditional , I was married to a man in his 20s . For some time he loved me a lot , cared for me , But one day I found that all that was a trick . He was trying to trap me in his net . When I asked him and argued with him , I was raped . That day was 12 October . My whole life was destroyed . As he did with other girls , He wanted to burn me alive . But before that I ran away . And he used to keep all his information , when he kidnapped , Molested , Abducted , Married girls , Everything in a laptop . I stole that and ran from there ”
His eyes were completely moist . Filled with tears.
He reads further .
” I came here , In this city , My whole childhood passed in my NGO. I came here , He got to know that I’ve stolen his laptop and to get it back he killed my parents . Hearing this incident I was broken , I developed fear of men . But Dr.Amma helped me and prepared me for fighting my own battles . She made me the owner of this NGO . And Now you would wish to know who was that man . He was non other than NIKHIL .”
” And if you are curious why didn’t I told you , Then I was afraid that I will lose a friend . But now its your choice to continue or break up .
Bye waiting for you in the seat of nature ”
” Pari ” .
