**Abir's Villa...**
Abir entered his villa and went straight to his room. Once inside, his gaze fell on Aaina, who was currently sitting on the floor against the bed, looking out towards the balcony.
After observing Aaina for a few moments, Abir approached her and sat down on his toes beside her. Feeling Abir's presence, Aaina looked at him.
Without any emotion, Abir said, "Go make me a coffee."
Aaina got up without saying a word and left the room. Abir also got up from his place and went to the balcony while doing something on his phone.
When Aaina reached the kitchen, all the servants stood to the side, bowing their heads. Aaina glanced at all the servants and started making coffee. After a while, she returned to the room with the coffee. Upon entering, she saw Abir on a call. Aaina stood in front of Abir with the coffee mug, but he only glanced at her before returning to his conversation.
After a while, he ended his call and took the coffee mug from Aaina's hand. He took a sip of the coffee and shouted at Aaina, "Did you bring me cold coffee?"
Aaina, startled by Abir's yelling, replied nervously, "I brought hot coffee, but since you were on the phone... it's still hot."
Hearing Aaina's words, Abir raised an eyebrow and said, "Really? So, I must be lying. Let's test whether the coffee is hot or cold." Aaina looked at him in surprise.
Without wasting a moment, Abir grabbed Aaina's hand and spilled all the coffee on it, causing her to scream loudly. The coffee wasn't too hot, but Aaina's hand turned completely red, and tears filled her eyes as she looked at her hand.
Seeing Aaina like this, Abir said, without any emotion, "Oh, the coffee was indeed hot... and I could tell just by looking at your hand. But what can be done now?"
Aaina alternated her tear-filled gaze between her hand and Abir. Noticing her condition, an evil smile spread across Abir's face.
He suddenly grabbed Aaina by the shoulders and slammed her against the wall, saying, "You know what? Seeing you in pain brings me peace. The more you suffer, the more peace I find in my heart. It's only fair to give you pain for what you took from me."
Aaina, sobbing, replied, "I didn't do anything, please let me go."
Abir tightened his grip and said, "You did do something. I saw it with my own eyes. But look at your courage—you're lying right in front of me. Wow, great job! But I won't listen to a word from you. How can you deny what I saw that day?" After saying this, Abir released Aaina and walked out of the room, heading to the bar area of the villa.
Aaina sat against the balcony wall, her face red from crying, holding the hand where Abir had spilled coffee and staring blankly ahead.
Meanwhile, Abir was in the bar of his villa, drinking. Memories from a year ago flashed in his mind.
In those memories, a girl was running after Abir with a pillow, while Abir teased her, saying, "You'll never catch me, Tashu! No matter how hard you try." The girl pouted and replied, "You're so bad!"
Abir responded, "I'm not that bad, just a little." Saying this, he ran away again, teasing her. The girl shook her head at Abir's antics, smiled slightly, and chased after him. After a while of running around, both of them were tired. But Tashu knew Abir would not let himself be caught, so she paused to think and then attempted to catch him. Suddenly, Tashu's foot hit a table, causing her to fall and sit on the floor. Seeing her hurt, Abir shouted, "Tashu...!"
With that, Abir came back to his senses, and his anger intensified. He punched the table hard and drank even more.
That's it, guys...
What did Aaina do that Abir is inflicting so much pain on her?
What happened a year ago that caused Aaina to be imprisoned by Abir?
And who is this Tashu, who seemed to make Abir so happy?
Who is Tashu, that Abir was so shocked and worried upon seeing her hurt?
