Part 24

"Never, ever, feel that you cannot confide in me just because I am Vivaan's brother, Vrinda. You can tell me anything and if you want, I can even rough him up for you," offered Daksh, holding her hesitant hands and letting the sincerity swirling in his eyes convince her that he had her best interests in mind.

I came after my father's respect to him, after my father in my mother's eyes or else, why would she abandon me and commit suicide? Vivaan chose Sucheta Aunty over me that fateful day, and Vijay tells me that he chose his family over me, and that's the reason he did not check up on me. Yet, I am led to believe that they loved me, loved me the most. Strange, isn't it?" she questioned, chuckling mirthlessly as tears streamed down her eyes.
