The Second Chance Given To Life

As I woke, my body was aching and my head throbbing. I let out a low grunt while trying to get up but I noticed someone's hand holding mine, I looked to my side only to find Advik half lying on the bed. 

as I get up I try putting a pillow under his head by slowly lifting his head, just as I do that he opens his eyes slowly rubbing them looking cute and doing that.

he looked at me as I was still holding his head and a pillow in the other hand, he looked at me with amusing eyes as if he was surprised. I removed my hand from behind his head, lowered my other hand with the pillow, and turned my face to the other side. 

I was embarrassed as I was not close to any other guy than my ex-husband.

my life before having Kriti my ex did not treat me right he used to beat me black and blue for the smallest of mistakes or negligence and threatened me that he would harm my family. however, my parents treated me like a burden they never misbehaved with me. 

I came out of my thoughts as Advik asked me "How are you feeling now ?" "fine"  I said shifting a little that's when he noticed our position and shifted backwards. I was playing with my fingers when he said "You should sleep and rest as it is still late afternoon  and I took a leave today and tomorrow so you can rest and I will take care of the kids." I was astounded as I did not expect him to do that for me because my ex-husband or should I say late husband made me work around the house even when I was sick. 

I lay back down as I was still a bit too tired to sleep but was not able to do that that's when i felt the bed dip from the other side and a hand wrapped around my waist and pulled me to his chest I lay quietly when he asked, " are you comfortable." I just look down as I never felt uncomfortable with him unlike other guys or my late husband. 

 he started to pull his hand back when I looked at him and said "I am comfortable." but as we got comfortable with each other my stomach started to grumble out of my huger and I heard a low chuckle as my face turned red due to embarrassment.

"lets first feed your tummy," he said and started to laugh while I just passed an awkward smile. saying this he left the room not before telling me to freshen up and wait for him.
