That night as they lay in bed Pooja wrapped him in her arms, close to her heart, she didn't know what to do with this boy. She wasn't sure about her feelings but she was sure about his feelings, she couldn't go beyond her limits but she felt bad for him, she wanted to give him everything for being this innocent, this pure.
He kept crying as he hid himself in her chest he kept saying sorry for what he did. It made her feel worse because she knew he loved her and only her.
A:: I'm sorry Pooja, please forgive me I will never do something like this ever again, I'll never cross my limits, I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, I'm sorry I did something which I shouldn't have.
P:: ssshhhh!! Enough now... go to sleep...
A:: please don't go away from me, please don't ignore me. Don't stop talking to me. I'll do anything you say.
P:: okay okay... now go to sleep sshhh!!! Common... I'm here right here with you...He tightened his arms around her as he cried out loud, Pooja just didn't know she was feeling bad for him or for herself, tears rolled down her eyes. She has been craving for this love all this time and now that she has it, but she can't have it as she is burdened with so much baggage. She still couldn't figure out why is she even here with him, she told herself he is only her friend, a very special friend then why does she want to be with him, why is she not angry with him for kissing her, touching her the way he shouldn't have. Why is she not feeling bad laying in the same bed holding him close to her heart. Why is she feeling guilty for hurting him? She felt she was wrong, she was married, he is younger than her, he was never married before, he can find someone who can be perfect for him as she felt she is not right for him, he deserves better.
He cried himself to sleep but soon he started shivering, he was already warm when she first came in but it seems his temperature was rising, she moved his arms and got some medicine.
P:: Ayaan.. Ayaan common have this medicine
A:: you won't leave me right? (Almost in unconscious state)
P:: no I won't, common sweetie have the medicine
He takes the medicine but he is still cold, she went back to the bed held him close to her.
A:: I'm so cold..
P:: I know sweetie ... I'm here right with you
A:: you won't leave me right?
P:: no I won't (she kissed his head out of concern)
Ayaan fell asleep and in his sleep he was blabbering a lot of things, he still said sorry even in his sleep, weeping in his sleep. One thing that pricked her heart when he said "please don't leave me, I'll never say I love you, just don't leave me I'll stay with you the way you want me to"
She always wanted someone to love her tell her he loves her and here this boy who loves her so much she is forcing him to not love her.
In the morning when she woke up he was still sleeping, he still had little temperature. She let him sleep and she thought of making breakfast, when he woke up he remembered Pooja came last night she was holding him but he can't remember how long she was here, he thought she must've left when he fell asleep, his body is still aching he is still cold, even though he was hungry he didn't want to get out of bed. He wondered he is so cold why is he not wearing his T-shirt.
P:: good morning
Ayaan was startled he tried to hide his bare body with the blanket.
A:: when did you come?
P:: last night
A:: last night?
P:: oh I didn't go home, and don't worry I didn't take advantage of you when you were unconscious (she chuckled) after I gave you medicine you started sweating so I took off your T-shirt.
A:: you were here whole night?
P:: yea
A:: so I wasn't dreaming
P:: I'm not too sure what dream you had but yes I was here. Now go get freshened up. I made you breakfast and you also need to take medicine before your temperature rises again.
Ayaan feeling lil embarrassed as he knows she saw him at his vulnerable state, he wondered what he did or said?
P:: don't worry you still have your pants, don't feel shy I haven't seen you naked, now common get dressedAyaan just turned pink now he seriously didn't know whether to cover himself with the blanket or just jump out and run to the bathroom.
P:: okay fine I'm going out, you can get up
She went out and he ran to the bathroom, he took a quick warm shower and came out in his towel as he didn't take his clothes with him ofcourse he wasn't expecting Pooja to be there, he thought she went out of his bedroom but he didn't know that she came back to fix his room.
A:: oh shoot!!! I'm sorry I didn't know you are here.
P:: don't be sorry it's your room, sorry I came in I thought I'll fix your room before you come out.
A:: thank you
P:: I realized you didn't take your clothes so I took it out for you.
