MY HEART CHOSE YOU ✅ (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 72

VIREN POV

The indistinct mumbling is disturbing me.

Lazily I flutter my eyes open to discern the mumbling coming from Paakhi.

She's covered in sweat and I listen to her mumbling something among the lines, "Don't...I can't...please.."

Not able to understand her words, I gently shake her.

She doesn't respond, "Paakhi! Love!" Now I'm really tense.

She doesn't wake up until a few minutes later.

"Huh?" She sits up all confused and disheveled.

"Are you okay?" I ask wiping the sweat from her forehead.

She keeps staring at me.

"Viren?" She whispers my name. Her voice sounds so gentle, so vulnerable.

I pull her in my arms and she lay her head on my chest.

"What is it?" I ask her.

"I had a bad dream," She sobs.

"Do you want to share?" I ask, gently stroking her hair.

"I remembered Rags accident and..." She wail.

I hold her tight and she sobs.

I don't know what happened today, but I have never seen Paakhi so vulnerable.

"Love?" I gently raise a question.

"Hmm..." She answers.

"Come, let's go to the balcony." I pull her up and to the balcony.

"This will make you happy!" I try to cheer her up.

She looks at the sky and closes her eyes.

The luminous moonlight shimmers her face. Illuminating her sharp features.

I take a step behind her and loop my arms around her waist.

She instinctively leans on me and I smile.

We stand there in the same position for a while.

I gently lay my head on her shoulder, press a tentative kiss on her neck and wait uncertainly for her reaction.

She tilts her head and I press another open-mouth kiss, while gently licking the spot.

She curls her fingers with mine and I smile.

I lay kisses starting from her shoulder to her earlobe.

"Viren..." She whimpers due to my teasing.

"Yes?" I ask twirling her around to face me.
