No, if they tried to take away from him . he'd rip the world apart with his bare hands and for some reason that didn't terrify him . ...........source unknown .
His fingers traveled up to her cheeks now , pushing her soft tendrils away . He pressed his lips a little harder as those lips haunted him for months now . Those soft petals intoxicated him like candles melt at the fireplace , like soft ice melts under the sunlight , like moths sacrificing itself in the flame . Pulling her lower lip softly between his lips , tasting away her juices . He never thought lips could taste like honey . But her's were sweet ..more than sweet , more than addictive like a drug infusing in his brain and blood .
His hand went behind her neck softly pushing his fingertips in her hair , pushing her face more forward and his head bent a little more so he could kiss her more deeply than he could even think of . Sucking her upper lip , tasting her lips...making himself believe that it was not a dream ..not a vision he was seeing for months .
And his eyes flew open realizing ....She was not moving anymore .
Then reality crashed down on him, and he pulled back abruptly, his heart pounding with guilt. Dread courses through him.
She was soundly drifting in the world of dreams leaving him in the real nightmare , her breathing evening out as exhaustion claimed her. Anirudh sat up, his hands trembling as he ran them through his hair. He felt a wave of self-loathing wash over him. The enormity of his mistake hit him like a physical blow knocking the air out of his lungs . He had failed her in the worst possible way. Instead of protecting her, he had crossed a line, betraying the trust she had placed in him.
He just did what he saved her from....... a sin .
Another man forcefully tried to kiss her ....and he kissed her without even her acknowledgement . The guilt was like a physical weight on his chest, making it hard to breathe. He prided himself on his integrity, on always doing what was right, and tonight he had fallen short. There was a monster in him too...just like him .
He looked at her again and saw a solitaire tear making it's way down her cheek .
Anirudh stood up, feeling a sickening knot in his stomach..... He felt sick .
He vowed to protect her from the world , from himself . And he failed .
He stumbled as he stood up with a jerk from the bed going far as he can from her . He couldn't even trust himself with her now . The guilt gnawed him like a beast , pulling him under the same ocean of fear which he swam across just for her . it was all over again . The things from her dressing table fell away as Anirudh crashed against it , his steps heavy from the remorse ..the anger he felt . He fell down on his knees with a thud . He buried his face in his hands, the memory of Bondita's vulnerable state haunting him. She had been so fragile, so lost, seeking comfort from him. And instead of protecting her, he had let his own emotions take over.
What have he done ...oh ! what have he done .
A shrill sound made him scream lightly as his heart fought with the rib cage to come out like a wiggling bird . He realized it was his telephone sound coming from his room . With another terrified glance at her , he found her sleeping as if nothing ever happened , like it was another one of her normal nights . She looked hauntingly enchanting .
With wobbly knees he made up to his room closing the door of her room and picked up the phone with shivering hands .
" h-hello "
" Anirudh ..main Salim maine kaha tha na train hai . bas tum chal rahe ho ya nahi yeh puchne ke liye phone k-"
" m-main chal raha hun ...train kitne baje ki hai " It was way past midnight , he glanced at the clock .
