Almost after an hour, he thought that he should go and check that she is fine and sleeping comfortably.
Siddharth get up from his bed, but before he could go out himself to check her.
He heard a faint knock on his bedroom's door.
Siddharth strides towards the door immediately and open it.
It's Avneet as expected.
Siddharth : what happened, Avneet? All good?
Avneet (her eyes were moist) : uhm.... I am sorry sir, but I am feeling scared alone in my room. (With these words, the tears rolled out from her eyes)
Siddharth : heyyy, don't cry. (He move ahead and literally wrapped her in his arms completely)
He caress her back to make her feel calm, she hugs him even more tightly sobbing.
Avneet : I am... strong... girl... but these ghosts and all.... (With constant sobbing)
Siddharth : shhh, relax. That was just a movie, they all were humans, dear, why are you feeling afraid of them then.
Avneet broke a hug and wipe her tears.
Siddharth : if you wanna sleep here, you can I will sleep on couch so you could feel comfortable. Only, if you wish.
Avneet : hmm.
Siddharth : come.
Avneet : I will bring my blanket and pillow.
Siddharth : I have extra pillows and blankets, relax. Come. (He had his hand on his shoulder to relax her)
Avneet sit on his bed.
Siddharth : rest now. You will be fine and sorry for choosing that movie.
Avneet : it's your birthday tomorrow sir and I am spoiling it like this.
Siddharth saw the time it's 11:48 PM.
Means, just 12 minutes to go for his birthday.
Siddharth : don't worry, I will celebrate it tomorrow. Let me switch off the lights
Avneet : uhm...
Siddharth : you can't sleep with these lights on, Avneet. Don't worry I am here only with you in room.
Stay tuned.
