His obsession, her divine love [#1 Ishq Kiya Series]

Chapter 16

"Anu?" Rishi shakes Anitha's shoulder who was sitting at the edge of the bed lost in her thoughts, Rishi went to wear something casual for going out for a walk, when he returned he saw Anitha sitting on the bed staring an one place, she looked lost, he called her name but she didn't respond so he shook her which made her come out of her world

"Huh?" she was taken back by the sudden touch, she stood up immediately pushing his hands from her shoulder scared, when see saw it was Rishi, she took a relief breath keeping her hands on her heart

Rishi stares at his hand and then at her, he could understand why she was taken back by his sudden touch, but his heart aches when he sees her in this state, he fisted his hands think what have Raghav done to her, that his mare touch made her scare

"Y-you scared me" she said sitting back on the bed, she felt weird by her own behaviour, but every time someone touched her without her knowing her body reacts the way it never did before

The way Raghav scared never left her mind, her whole body still shivered remembering it, she was held at a gun point for the first time, she accepted her death even before it came, if that day Rishi and Ishaan were one second late also, she couldn't imagine what would have happened to her

He sat near her on his knees holding her hands carefully this time not making her flinch again, she didn't lift her eyes and looked continuously at her lap

"Want to talk" he said stroking her cheeks slowly, she didn't look up or responded, the silence in the room was killing both of them, she shook her head continuously

"I- I am scared" she said finally a drop of tears fell on his hands, her hold body started shevering because of her sobbing, her head slightly went forward hitting his chest, he kept one hand on her head while her grip tightening on his hand, she held him in dead grip

"I-I am s-scared t-to go o-out, what if-, what if some-thing ha-ppens again" she said sobbing loudly, he rubbed her back listening to her calmly but only he knew the Strom inside him

"He s-slapped me, he scared me, he held a gun at me, I can't forget that even if I want to" she Shuttering, her voice was filled with different emotions, she felt like sinking in ocean

"Shhh Anu, stop crying he is gone, he will never come back, it will not happen again, you are safe baby" he said stroking her hair, she finally relaxed slowly

He held her face pulling the hairs behind her ears, he lifted his hands and wipped her face with his sweater sleeve

"No more crying, go wash your face, you have to go out eventually, you are brave right, I am with you come" he said tried to make her stand but she shook her head

"Nai! Aaj nai, we will go out tomorrow, I want to ask you something" she said pulling him down making him sit back, she had many unanswered questions, he sat back on his knees waiting for her to ask
