Even though Nayra might've acted courageously she was still shaken by what had happened so her brother and Aneesh always tried to cheer her up, especially Aneesh, he used to do everything he can to make her happy. He'd make her eat forcefully because Nayra had lost appetite and got all gloomy and dull but Aneesh stopped it from happening, he tried his best so Nayra could be in a good health, he'd take her outside for a walk sometimes or they both along with her brother played games and sometimes Aneesh would stay at their house too. Aneesh was like the perfect dream guy any girl could ask for but Nayra didn't want to fall in love again , in fact now she despised such stuffs after the thing with Aditya.
Maybe she needed more time to trust anyone ever again.
She has known Aneesh since she was in first grade, her brother Rishi and Aneesh were in the same class since fourth grade. Back in those days the three of them used to play together in the park nearby their house.
She remembers everytime she used to get hurt, Aneesh would apply her medicine and bandaid.
Even though Aneesh was a nice guy she never thought much about him other than her big brother's friend and thought that he might think of her as his small sister too. When she first met Aditya she was in her college, they both had been together for about nine years Or so and Aneesh had never really liked to talk much about Aditya nor did her brother Rishi.
They did not like him much and never even pretended to like him, even though her mom would say that he's a good guy and not to worry about it, that might the only reason of why Rishi and Aneesh kept quiet all these years and went with the flow.
Now Nayra wonders that maybe they were right and she should've understood it but she was madly in love with him. He used to be a good guy but chose to be a bad one.
Or maybe he was never a good guy because Nayra trusted him more than herself that she wouldn't even bother to check up on what he's up to.
Her brother often says that he just used her as she was too good for him and wouldn't say anything to him and even says that he was a shitty guy.
Well now all she could do is erase that guy from her memories and everywhere.
She just thought that she's lucky to have such nice and supportive friend and family. Her brother and Aneesh did everything they can to not let her fall into depression.
