"Aww, so sweet of you. But, don't say those big words. I don't have parents so I can feel how a parent feels for their kids," a lonely tear escaped from my eyes.
"I know that loss is unbearable but it's okay don't cry now please," he wiped my tears. We were about to go From there when we heard someone calling us from behind. We turned back and saw the father's of those girls came running towards us. As they are elders they are panting for air.
"Mr. Grover, please spare us this time we won't let this happen again," they said after they breathed a mouthful of air.
"Uncle's, this time I will spare them because of you both. If this happens again then I am not gonna give another chance," he said.
"Avantika, thanks for forgiving them," they said and I nodded my head. He dragged me from there and went to his car. I sat in the passenger seat and he came to the driver seat and started the car.
"Abhi, please stop the car," I almost screamed. He applied a sudden brake to stop the car and we were jerked.
"What happened?" He questioned me and I pointed my finger. He followed the direction and was seen there.
"You screamed like that for an ice cream?" He questioned me and I nodded my head saying,
"It's been more than 8 months since I ate it." He looked at me and then got out of the car and went to get it.
Third Person POV:
After talking with Abhi and Avi those persons went back to their families and took them from there.
First girl house and Second girls houses(imagine the same scenes happening in their both homes as the both father's spoke about it already in the mall itself):
"I don't know what you are learning? We are giving you everything you ask for. What's the need to do this today?" Their fathers questioned them. The girl's stood there rooting to the ground without uttering a single word by lowering their heads.
"I need an answer," they slapped their daughters hard.
"What are you doing? Why are you slapping her? For an unknown girl who is not equal to us," their mothers stopped them and the next minute they slapped their wives.
"Shut up!!!! Shut the f**k up. We are sending them to Universities to learn not to degrade others or to insult others. Are these the words you are saying to her daily? Is this a mother who should make her daughter learn? A mother should make them realise good and bad, right and wrong but not make them stand in the wrong path. Real love is not supporting them in everything it means making them walk in the right path even by punishing them. You failed in raising her as a perfect human so stop supporting her," they scolded their wives.
"And you, I gave you everything. From now I am not giving you any allowance. If you want something, work hard and earn it," they passed the ultimatum.
"Dadddd," they screamed.
"Don't scream, learn the meaning of hard work," they said. Their mom's want to say something but they stopped them saying,
"It's good he stopped himself or else do you even know what could have happened. By tomorrow morning our companies will go bankrupt and our names will be erased from this world."

Avantika POV:
He bought me an ice cream for me and after I completed it he dropped me back home. I went to my room and freshened up. I was thinking about what happened to my bag and where I left it. I came back to the living room and sat there waiting for my aunt and uncle to come. After a while they came home and aunt was supporting uncle. I made sure they were fine and I prepared some coffee for them.
"Thank you, Avantika," uncle thanked me and then aunt asked me to sleep.
I went back to my room and locked my door from inside. I fell back on the bed and closed my eyes.
"Dad, mom, please wake up," I woke up from my sleep and then looked around. I realised I have the same dream again and I went and sat on the balcony.
I started at the stars and said,
"Mom, dad, I heard that the persons who died will be turned into stars and watch us from there. Is that true? Are you guys there? Are you watching me? Why do you both go away from me? Didn't you think what happened to your daughter once you were gone? The people who pampered me when you were alive are scolding me and beating me. I became a maid in this house. Their son is behaving weirdly with me. You said he is my brother but why is he looking for my body and to climb into my bed? I said all these to my aunt but she is not believing my words. She is behaving differently from the last 2 days. I don't know what's wrong with her and if she really changes for good it will be good. I don't know what's happening with them," I spoke to the stars and sat there calmly by closing my eyes.
After a while I heard a voice.qq
"Darling," I hear someone calling me. I shot open my eyes and looked here and there. I couldn't find anyone but again I heard the same voice again. It was my mom's voice. She is the only one who used to call me by that name. I got tears in my eyes.
"Mo..mom," I stumbled in my words.
"Yes darling," I heard her reply.
"Are you really here?" I questioned her.
"Yes, you asked me to come. So I came here," she said.
"Mom, I want to talk with you a lot. Can you please stay with me for sometime?" I questioned her and she said ok.
