" Bhaiya(brother), who is she? I don't know her," Orni asked clutching Shivansh's shirt tightly where she pointed her finger at a middle-aged woman.

Orni is now a little bit fine but her mental condition is still the same. She doesn't act according to her age and most importantly she doesn't remember anything. She wasn't even understanding that Shivansh is not related to her.

Shivansh thought to take her to the police station but thinking about the risks he didn't go to the police. Until she gets back to her normal sense he can't take any risks. Moreover, his emotional situation is already vulnerable so he isn't ready to endure the authority's continuous questions and lengthy procedure to find out the culprit.

Well, The middle-aged woman's name is Faiza. She was Shivansh's nanny. When he was little she used to take care of him. After leaving the babysitter job she established an orphanage. Shivansh brought Orni here so that she can take care of her. He has already told her about Orni.

" She is Faiza buaa(aunt). She will take care of you from this onwards," Shivansh answered patting Orni's head gently.

Faiza buaa smiled at Orni and asked softly," What is your name, little Doll?"

" Orchi Raichand," Orni replied cutely.

Shivansh has changed her name. He can sense the danger lurking around her and he doesn't want her to get hurt.

" You are very cute. I have a beautiful garden here. Do you want to see it?" Faiza buaa asked Orni and she looked at Shivansh for permission.

Shivansh nodded his head in the positive and she agreed after seeing his assurance. She was still clutching Shivansh's shirt like a little 5-year-old kid.

Faiza buaa called her daughter Nadia and told her to take Orni to the garden. After that, Nadia took Orni to the garden leaving Shivansh with Faiza buaa.

" The girl is very pitiful. I feel bad for her," Faiza buaa said looking at Orni's retreating figure.

Shivansh replied sighing," Me too."

" I have understood whatever you have told me about her. But, what about her child? Who is her baby's father?" She asked Shivansh curiously.

He informed her sadly," I don't know anything about her baby's father. She was raped. Trust me buaa, if I get that bastard in my hand ever then I will slit his throat with my own hands."

He said the last part angrily remembering the doctor's words and clenched his jaw. He can't believe how can someone step so low to rape such an innocent teenager!! He just melted seeing Orni's innocent eyes. He wondered how that bastard hurt a girl like her.

" Don't your parents know about Orchi? You could have taken her to your house. The family atmosphere of there might be helpful for this poor girl," She suggested with her extra sympathetic voice.

Shivansh would have taken Orni to his house if the situation of his life was like before. But, it's messed up and he can't take her to his home at this moment.

" No, I didn't say anything to Ma and Dad because of Orchi's safety. I want you to take care of her always. I will send you money every month for Orchi's treatment and expenses. I hope you will take care of her like your own daughter," Shivansh said holding her hands.

She replied caressing Shivansh's cheek," I will do, son. Don't worry. I will inform you about Orchi's improvement."

" Hmm. And, another thing, never reveals anything about Orchi to anyone. Not even to my family members. Her life is in danger. Until she gets back her memory we have to be careful. She is my responsibility until I return her to her parents," Shivansh told her and she nodded her head in the positive.

She replied smiling," Don't worry. Your buaa will take proper care of Orchi."

Shivansh nodded his head in the positive and started going towards the door to leave the orphanage. He was feeling a little bit bad for leaving Orni but he didn't have any choice. He was suffocating in this city.

He is now ready to leave the door when Faiza buaa asked him suddenly," But, where are you going? Won't you come here to meet Orchi?"

" I am leaving. I don't know when I will return," Shivansh replied without turning his head towards her.

***************************************

Indrajit's death changed a lot of things in the state's political sector. It's not hidden anymore that he was murdered but who murdered him? Nobody knows. VR took care of this matter cleverly so that no one can doubt Srilekha. The blame was put on Indrajit's enemies but he had so many enemies so nobody knows who killed him.

After his death, a lot of his political party members were arrested by the police. The authority was pissed off by Indrajit's monopolistic and autocratic outlook. They were just waiting for a moment to strip him of his power. A lot of his illegal properties were taken back by the authority and their next target is his son. Vijendra Randhawa.

The police were completely silent regarding the Viper gang and their gang leader VR because Indrajit was sheltering them. In front of Indrajit's political power and money, no one could put a finger on VR. As a result, he was committing crimes after crimes without anyone's interruption. Since Indrajit is no more so there is no one to protect VR from the authority. And, now the authority's next target is VR. They are searching for him to throw him behind the bar.

VR was going crazy without Orni. He didn't leave a single place in the whole city without searching for Orni. In every single hospital, clinic and all possible places, he didn't leave a single place without searching for Orni.

But, how can he find her out because she was already gone? Shivansh has taken her to another city for Orni's safety. VR was preparing to search for her in other cities when he came to know about the authority's planning to arrest him. Having no other choices he had to hide. He has a farmhouse in the middle of the forest where he used to torture his victims. No one knows about this place except VR & Akash and that's why VR is hiding here. But, he ordered Akash to continue searching for Orni. He is determined to find her out at any cost and he is also sticking to his opinion that Orni is alive. According to him, she can't leave him ever.

Standing in front of the window he was looking at the vast greenery outside and thinking about Orni. He was wondering how is she, what's she doing, is she fine, is their baby fine and lots of questions. Apart from all these, he was guilty and feeling embarrassed for whatever he did to Srilekha & Orni.

Remembering the times when Orni used to be so happy with him, he felt his heart twisting inside his chest. She loved him truly but what he gave her in return. Except for pain, he gave nothing to her. He snatched a lot of things from her, even her sanity but in return, he just gave her pain & tears. After losing time to rectify everything and losing her, he was realising what he has done!!!

VR was still lost in Orni's thoughts when someone rang the doorbell. VR got alerted and checked carefully through the looking glass. A confused expression appeared on his face seeing Ranvijay here. He was wondering how Ranvijay got to know about his location.

Opening the door VR didn't bother to greet Ranvijay, he asked rudely," What are you doing here? How did you get my address?

" Akash gave me this address. Come on, Vijendra. I am your brother. Seeing you on every tv channel as a criminal I couldn't resist myself. I was wondering how are you? That's why I am here," Ranvijay answered entering the room.

VR said rudely," I am fine as you can see. So, leave right now. I am not in the mood to hear your nonsense."

" I am not here to talk nonsense. I am here to give you a good suggestion. Since the police are searching for you so I will suggest you come abroad with me. There you can start a new life," Ranvijay suggested and immediately VR's face clouded with sadness.

VR answered with a trembling voice," I can't. I have to find out Orni."

" What? What do you mean by that?" Ranvijay inquired frowning his brows.

This time VR couldn't control himself anymore and hugged Ranvijay tightly. It's the first time he hugged Ranvijay and that was absolutely shocking for Ranvijay. He became bewildered seeing VR's weird behaviour.

" I just fucked up everything. Orni is missing and everything is my fault," VR confessed truly where Ranvijay wasn't understanding anything.

Ranvijay asked suspiciously breaking the hug," What did you do to Orni this time?"

VR opened his mouth to say something but stopped instantly. He hushed Ranvijay and whispered in his ear to keep quiet. Ranvijay looked at VR questioningly while VR pointed his finger at the window.

Taking calculative steps VR walked towards the window and parted the curtains slightly. He looked out carefully and felt some movement near his house. Ranvijay followed VR and found out that a few cops were surrounding the whole house.

" Fuck!! The police are here," Ranvijay whispered and VR got worried.

Someone started ringing the doorbell continuously and VR knew if he opens the door he will be arrested by the police.

" Vijendra Randhawa, you have 5 minutes to surrender yourself otherwise there will be consequences," A police officer announced when VR gulped down his saliva nervously.

Then, the police officer said," The whole house is surrounded by us. Think before trying to escape."

" What are you going to do now?" Ranvijay asked VR who was worried shitless.

He answered nervously," I will try to escape through the basement."

" You will get caught. The whole house is surrounded by the police. There is no way you can escape. Even if you escape then they will chase and catch you," Ranvijay said and for the first time, VR is scared of the police.

VR started pacing here and there while mumbling," I don't want to get arrested. I don't. I have to find out Orni. I have to find out where is she, how is she? I have to..............."

Seeing VR's anxious face Ranvijay caught his shoulder tightly. He tried to calm VR down but he continued chanting Orni's name continuously.

" Listen.....listen to me....you dickhead!!!" Ranvijay shouted shaking VR.

VR looked at Ranvijay with perplexed eyes when Ranvijay suggested," Listen carefully, you cunt!! I will go outside through the basement and try to escape with your car. The police will chase after me thinking that it's you. When the whole compound will be emptied you will leave it and hide anywhere you will feel safe. I will mislead the police."

" No, I can't let you do that. I can't let you put your life in danger!! No.....never!!" VR refused nodding his head.

Ranvijay answered," That's the only way. And, don't think about me. I will handle the police. Even if they catch me they won't be able to keep me inside the jail for a long time. I have no criminal record and even people don't know about me. I will handle everything. Don't worry."

Hearing him VR pulled him into a tight hug and Ranvijay hugged him back. VR was overwhelmed seeing Ranvijay's brotherly love for him.

" Thanks, bro," VR thanked while Ranvijay chuckled.

Ranvijay replied patting his back," I don't have time to say welcome. Bye."

After that everything happened according to Ranvijay's planning but God had another plan.

While the police were chasing Ranvijay, he lost control of the car because a police officer shot one of the car wheels. Losing control the car fell from a bridge and then there was no trace of the car. After this incident, the police were sure that VR is dead by now. There is no way a human can survive such kind of server accident.
