Here's the 10th chapter.

Enjoy reading.

Anokhi was making the bed after dinner when she noticed he was constantly sniffing.

"Aapki tabiyat theek haina...", she inquired, worried.

"Hmmm...", he simply hummed in response.

Anokhi, on the other hand, noticed that his eyes were pale, and she suspected that he had a fever.

"Aapko... aapko bukhaar hain ?...", she asked concerned.

Shaurya himself was feeling ill but he denied it.

"Maine kha na... main theek hoon..."

"Tum jaao... aur jaakar so jaao...", he rebuked.

"Theek hain..."

"Toh main jaa rhi hoon...", she was about to leave.

"Kaha jaa rhi ho tum ?...", he interrupted.

"Sone !..."

"Toh bed to iss taraf hain...", he pointed towards the bed and it was then he realized, it was a single bed.

Anokhi continued to stare at him.

"Achcha... vo... vo... maine pehle dekha nhi tha..."

"Lekin fir tum kaha sone jaa rhi ho ?..."

"Mumma ke room mein..."

Shaurya felt disappointed..

"Achcha..."

"Good-night...", Anokhi left saying it.

"Aaj bhi akele sona padega...", he grumbled.

With a dejected expression on his face, he walked over to the bed and sat down.

His fever had reached its peak up to this point.

"Mujhe bukhaar sa lag rha hain..."

He was also experiencing a headache.

"Koi baat nhi... kal tak theek ho jaayega..."

He was about to turn off the lights when he realized his "pillow companion" was missing.

"Arre mera takiya ?!..."

Then he realized he wasn't just going to get her pillow today, but her entire bed.

Suddenly, he felt relieved that though she wasn't there, but the presence of her belongings around him made him feel her presence.

He glanced at the dolls in the shelf once more and smiled to himself. He turned off the lights and snuggled into her bed for a peaceful night's sleep.
