Note: This is story is an extension of Shiprat's story Indian Social Worker and The Bully. Shiprat left his story open ended. The part which disturbed me most was plight of Shikha. I think Shikha indeed behaved like a wayward person but she was manipulated to do so and I firmly believe she deserves a second chance for redemption.
I request everybody initially to go through Shiprat's story for better understanding. Finally I would like to thank Shiprat, without his contribution this story would have never been written. I tried to contact Shiprat about same but as no reply came from him so I decided to move forward with my idea. So here is my small contribution.

Sunaina the receptionist ushered the last patient of the day into the office. Dr. Kiran was pleasantly surprised to see his patient; she looked something around 30 years of age, dressed in loose white shirt and long green skirt and was very attractive indeed. But along with the charm and attractiveness there was a shadow of apprehension and melancholy on her face.
"Hello Shikha!" Kiran said, with a warm smile. "I prefer to use first names, it makes people more relaxed, so please call me Kiran. It's nice to meet you, please take a seat."
"Oh thank you doctor, I mean Kiran." Shikha said nervously.
"I have been appointed to examine and follow up of your case from our mutual friend Dr. Nita." Kiran paused for a moment to check Shikha's reaction. But none came from her.
He continued, " She had to attend a conference about mental health at London and will stay there atleast for two months. So she has transferred your case to me. I think she has already corresponded about it to you too."
Shikha nodded silently in affirmation.
Kiran smiled and continued, "Good. First of all don't worry at all. See I am a qualified GP and also a qualified psychologist. My field of expertise is helping people of both sexes with sexual problems, whether they be physical or emotional or both."
"Nita has informed me everything about your unfortunate incident with Lallan and his rogues and the subsequent separation from your husband."
Shikha's eyes started flowing involuntary and her body flinched as she heard her tormentor's name. For a moment the room filled will heavy and uneasy silence.
"I am extremely sorry about the trials and tribulations you had to go through. But you are in an absolute safe place now." He said softly holding her hand.
"Trust me what happened between you and Lallan was not your fault at all. You always hated that sick bastard. He just simply took advantage of your loneliness and your vulnerability. He manipulated you and got you into an extremely unhealthy abusive episode of perverted sex and violence just to satisfy his own sick needs. You have done absolutely correct and courageous act by sending him to jail."
Shikha gave a half hearted smile after hearing this.
"After studying your case thoroughly, I can definitely say that you are neither a sex addict nor an abuse addict. You are perfect normal girl who deserves love, happiness and a perfect normal relationship. And believe me there is absolutely nothing in the world which can't be fixed." Kiran asserted by softly squeezing her hand.
Shikha was now on verge of emotional breakdown. She had almost forgotten that how it is felt to be loved. Lallan had really messed up with her body and mind which needed heavy repair but with soft, kind and careful touch and approach.
