Author's POV
**************

Meanwhile on same night, In other room Mrs.Gill was thrashing around in bed as her face was contorted in mix of fear and anguish. Her eyes were tightly shut as if trying to block some horrific images.

She was drenched in sweat even though the AC was on in the room.

"You think it's over? You are wrong!"

"I will come back and I will take away the most precious thing of your life...it will be fun to see you begging me on your keens...haha!"

"I will be back! Mark my words, My dear ex- fiancee!"

Mrs.Gill shook her head as she start murmuring in her sleep, her words were not clear but laced with the sense of desperation.

"No...no...please...Don't...take him away...please...No!..."

"Ishu!!" Suddenly Mrs.Gill screamed and woke up with a jolt.

Mr. Gill also woke up after hearing her scream. He stare at his wife, who is breathing heavily, looking scared.

He placed his palm over her should, making her flinch a little. She looked at him for a second before hugging him tightly, who patted her back gently.

"Are you okay? Bad dream?!" Mr.Gill asked in a gentle voice.

"Hmm a very bad one..." Mrs.Gill's voice cracked a little.

"It's okay, it was just a dream, nothing to worry about...calm down.." Mr.Gill said while patting her back in a comforting manner.

"I also wish that this was just a dream and nothing else..." Mrs.Gill thought to herself.

She slowly break the hug and wiped her teary eyes.

"Are you feeling okay now?" Mr.Gill asked

"Yes, sorry for disturbing your sleep..." Mrs.Gill replied.

He immediately shook his head and make her lay on the bed before covering him with duvet. He then patted her head.

"Stop thinking about it and sleep.."

Mrs.Gill nodded and closed her eyes, thankfully she didn't had any nightmare this time and soon she fall asleep.

Mr.Gill stare at her sleeping face and his expressions changed, he knitted his eyebrows as if thinking something.

"Just what are you hiding from me?" He thought to himself.

Next Morning, Shubman woke up with a terrible headache. He grabbed his head with one hand and slowly get up.

He checked the time and stretched his other hand to grab his phone but suddenly his hand stilled in halfway as his eyes widened.

"Fuck! Fuck!!" He cursed loudly when he remember what happened last night.

He then frowned when he realised something. He have to talk with ishan. Younger need to explain things to him.

He threw away his duvet and hurriedly get up, although he felt his head exploding because of hangover but still he need to meet younger right now.

Shubman come out of his room and was about to about to open the door of the room next to his but stopped when he saw something.

Mrs.Gill, who seems deep lost in her thoughts, was going towards stairs. Her focus isn't on stairs at all.

Shubman frowned at this and called her.

"Mrs.Gill..."

No response from her side as she continue walking.
