"How long is it going to take?"An impatient growl, travelled into the room from outside.
Radhika sighed. Dear, lord, help me in getting rid of this impossible man.
"I can't reach the zipper of the dress."She yelled finally, giving up, all her hair f...
Their bodies swung out of the car in a catapult and rolled, and rolled, rough and hard, on the concrete road. Radhika's teeth rattled with the impact, but her body was held tight by his arms. He took every brunt, crunch, and hit. He shielded her completely, his hands under her head and his face convulsing in pain on every turn of the roll.
Shocked, and her breath knocked out hard from her lungs, Radhika's mind blackened more. Their bodies stopped hitting on the small rocks and finally collided with a dead dried-out trunk of a tree.
Radhika felt a searing pain scratch piercingly on the side of her stomach. The pain travelled through all her limbs and body. Her eyes watered and she gasped, but her mind panicked looking at a red spot that appear and spread on the t-shirt on the side of his left shoulder.
Radhika could hardly breathe, adrenaline rushing in a flood into her veins. She felt his body shake vigorously on top of hers. God, he wasn't only shaking. He was groaning out loud in pain. Sweat soaked both of their bodies, but nothing could beat the extreme fear spreading all over her skin when she heard him grunt out loud and his muscles involuntarily shook harder, rattling her body with his.
"Oh, god! Are you all right?" She gasped out breathless and tugged firmly on his t-shirt.
His body got off of her immediately and he slid beside her, breathing hard, the strains of the stuttering and the hacking of his breath reached her ears and pierced into her very being. She tried hard to move up but her muscles seemed to be paralysed dead on the moist soil. Something wet trickled on her skin over the side of her stomach. Radhika closed her eyes to shake off the pain and tried hard to get up. Before her try of a struggle could motion her frozen muscles to work, he shockingly got up and stood on his two feet with easy fluidity of limbs. Radhika looked up startled but he turned his back to her face. His shoulders heaved up and down, and his breath stilted more than before. His straining hard pants still rang in her ears.
Radhika winced, flinched and got up somehow. Her head reeled, and her mind circled fast in a zoom of giddiness. A thick film of shadowed blackness appeared in her vision blurring his image into her eyes.
But, she saw him take a step forward, and her hand, as if a reflex, caught hold of his wrist. His body instantly locked up and straightened more. A complete silence befell them. The night and the woods remained unmoved. He turned around slowly. His eyes didn't catch hers as they always do first, but travelled towards the hold of her hand on his wrist.

He kept staring down. His face was streaked in sweat and dust. The drawn tightness of his face and the paled thinned lips of his half-opened mouth panted hard. Radhika waited for his eyes to capture hers.
But he flinched away looking at her hand in a pained grunt. A complete look of something horrible came into his features breaking the hard angles and planes of his face into a twisted convulse. The shock of seeing it stung her eyes and a rush of heated mist reddened the white around her hazel pupils. A complete iciness hurt her body with its thousand needles. The other tremulous whitened hand of his caught hers in a hard painful grasp.
