"He.. Hello.. " Though it was just a few seconds for his reply, I felt like it was longest time I had to wait!

"Hey.. How you doing? "

If someone asks me which is the most amazing thing in the world that calms you down, I did say that it's his voice. How do I explain it?! A calm, soothing, bold and sometimes husky. He can mesmerize anyone with that voice. I am not an exception.

" June.. You there? Are you okay.. Say something.. Helloooo ..???!!! " I can sense the tension and concern in his voice. How is it even possible for me to judge from his voice when I barely know him. I cleared my throat to answer and end his misery.

"I.. Uh.. Ummm.. Ya am good. Thanks ." Another long wait. Every second waiting for his reply is like being in heaven and hell at the same time. I never thought of this combination and mentally slapped myself for even thinking about something impossible. This is what he's doing to me now. Making me go crazy but deep down I know that it feels good.

"You gave me heart attack in a sec sunshine. Don't do that again. How re you feeling really? I know am asking it for n-th time. It's just that... I wanted know if you are OK. You will be better off after the sleep. I don't wanted to disturb you. Have a good sleep.I will call you tomorrow. Good night. By... e"

"No wait...! " why did I do that? I'm not sure why but last thing I want for the day is to feel bored or more like alone. May be he's..

" You don't want me to hang up? "

" No, I mean yes... Urgh.. It's complicated " I sound like a pathetic lost kid in woods.

" It's okay June. Don't stress out. Just go to bed. I will be on the call. " I was surprised by the fact that he knows that am no where near my bed. Even though I couldn't walk I literally crawled to the window side.

I took more than five minutes to settle down and I am still surprised that he's holding on. After mentally preparing what to ask I just went along with the flow and asked him, "how do you know me?" I thought he will disconnect or will say that he will explain later. His heavy breathe is making me more nervous than the truth.

"I lived in the same place as yours, down street and went to the same school ".

" Huh?!!! " I am surprised and shocked by his answer and the revelation. He continued to talk.

" I know you don't remember much from that place. Don't worry I will never make you remember the past. I promise "

For some reason I know what he's saying is truth and I simply nod. June! he can't see you, you gotta say something in phone. My subconscious mind gave the instructions.

" Thanks. For everything! I never thought that I will get these things back ever in my life again. It means a lot to me. "

" You don't have to thank all the time sunshine "

What's wrong with me. Every time when he mentions me as sunshine or whenever he calls me with some other name I feel the peace.

" Can I ask you something? "

" Anything June"

"Why do you care for me? " Without any doubt I do know that it's more than care. But why he has to care for me. It's a million dollar question,if not for him atleast for me.

"Coz, you saved me when I was drowning"

"Whaaaaaat!! I.. You drowned... But how... Me? I don't know swimming... How's it possible?. You might have mistaken me for someone else. Not even in dream I had saved someone from drowning" when I complete I had to catch my breathe.

He started laughing at my answer, or more like questions.

"Still you are the same June, so naive and innocent. Drowning doesn't mean that people should drown in water. Some drown in pain and misery too. And you never know what you did to save me"

"Okayyyy.. Is that a compliment or how should I take it? "

" It's more than a compliment June. " I smiled at his reply.

Never truly loved a compliment in my life and he's something different.

I fell asleep while talking to him without knowing what I am getting myself into!!!
