Anantha Age 11, 

It’d been a week seen I'm home. it’s new home. I don’t know why dad didn’t take me to the same home. He said it’s safe here. But I am in danger. I didn’t do anything. 

It’s middle of night when I heard some voices. I still can’t walk so I stayed in bed. when someone came barging in my room from the window. I got scared. Who is this uncle? What is he going to do?

Then he said “Calm down Bacha. I'm your father’s friend "I don’t know, but I felt like I should trust him. so I nodded my head. my eyes filled with tears.

“Don’t cry dear. I'm taking you somewhere okay” he said in a soft voice. I nodded my head again. He took me in his arms. carefully.

Outside the window there were some womens. Who helped me to get down. They were so careful about me. They took me in the car. I was waiting for that uncle to come with my dad.

Then the next thing happened my eyes widened in shock. fire. The whole house was on fire. That uncle came running towards the car. He nodded to the womens. he came inside the car. and started to drive.

“Uncle, where is my dad? He didn't come?” I said my voice was trembling. I saw uncle’s eyes were watery. “Let me take you somewhere safe first, okay” he said. again i nodded my head.

I just wish my dad will come soon. He won’t leave me alone like mom did. Dad, please be safe. 

I can’t pray to God. Last time I prayed he didn’t help me. I can’t live my dad in God's hands now. I can only wish. and I am wishing him to be safe.

We reached the house. I saw so many women there. Uncle picked me up and kept me. Another uncle came to me. He brought a wheel chair. They made me sit on it.

Womens came to me. They all took me inside. then put me to bed in a room. They were so caring.

“We won't be here so much. These women will help you okay” Uncle said. I don't want him to go. and leave me alone. Dad is not here either.

“Where is dad?” I asked. I was worried. uncle looked at another uncle. they nodded to each other.

“He is not coming beta. He is in the stars now” another uncle said. First mom and now dad also left me. Why is this happening to me? What was my fault. I started crying.

She was crying. and they let her cry. she needs to cry, they all know. A woman came and sat beside her. she holds her. and started to cry loudly.

She was breathless. They all stood there watching her. letting out her pain. She was just 11 years old. She was just a kid. they broke her. Then they all stole her hope of living.

The woman was caressing her hair. making her feel safe. after some time when she stopped crying a little. they gave her water she refused.

She again started crying. She tried to stop herself crying. She didn’t even know when she went to sleep. The woman took a wet towel and cleaned her face. She put a blanket on her. and went out of the room. 

“What has happened to her? Dev” she asked. 

“It's a long story. Rishi will tell you. I have to go for now.” dev said.

Rishi nod at dev and started leave. they also lost their friend. they have mourn to. but they were mafias they can’t cry. they try help their friends. he was in mess. 

They can’t leave Anantha alone. so they brought her here.

“Her dad, me and Dev were friends in school…” Rishi started telling her the story.

When suddenly they heard the screaming of Anantha. They walked in her room. saw her crying and screaming for help. She had a nightmare again. She couldn’t sleep.

The woman comes to her. She gave her water and medicine. and made Anantha to have. she was refusing. But Rishi said to her.

“Your dad would like that. You are refusing to eat or drink. please” Rishi said in a calm tone.

She took medicine. After some time she was asleep. The woman was there with her. all night. Rishi was there too. telling her all the story. while Anantha was sleeping.

Such a fragile soul was hurt by monsters. Those help her devils too. The Devils is going to make their life hell. They lost their friend and they will destroy everyone who is involved.
