"So How's your heroine doing?" He asked with a smile as she placed her pup on to his table. She shot him one of her most dazzling smile "She's the usual. It usually takes a lot of work to tryna save such strays." "She'll be healthy as a horse soon , After all you love her so much." He said with another smile. She noticed that the Vet was more talkative than usual today. She scanned his clinic , no one except the Vet and herself and off-course her Little pup Lola. She started getting nervous. 'He's a great doctor. He won't kill you. Get a grip of yourself.' She told herself. "Umm..Samriddhi? Hold her , I'll get the injection." His voice, brought her back. She moved behind the curtain . The normal process started , cleaning Lola's nails , her teeth. She, happily, chatted with the Vet. Told him about her future plans. "Get over to this side." He said and lightly touched her waist to shift her. She felt uneasy but brushed it off. "I'll get the lotion." he moved away. Suddenly, something grabbed her waist from behind and at the same moment she felt lips kissing her neck. She froze. Stood there all frozen. She turned and tried to move away but he held her hand. "No Please ! Look don't go." he said with pleading eyes. "let me Go!" She muttered. His hands hard on her tiny hands. "Wait!" "Just let me go!" This time she yelled. Picked Lola and started towards door. "No I Won't" He yanked her back by her hair. She screamed in pain. "Just listen to me!" His nails dug into her upper arm. Tears were already running down her cheeks. "You're hurting me" She whimpered in pain. "What do you think you were doing by smiling at me...Talking to me so much. You asked for it and now you only start crying." He was livid with anger. Blood was already gushing out from her arm , With full force he pushed her aside. She staggered, trying to get her balance but fell over. She looked at him. He had his back at her . She picked herself up and her pup and ran...Ran all the way home ,crying ! She hugged her pet as she ran. Ran straight to bathroom and lay there for who knows how many hours. She cried...Cried cuz her hand hurt...cried cuz her heart ached but she cried for she knew to survive in this world , she'll have to face it all not just once but many times ....
