CAUGHT A LIFE BEHIND THE VEIL

Part 20 - I will protect you Swara

Happy reading 💖

Morning rays peeped into the glass windows disturbing swasan's sleep. As the sun rays directly hit Sanskar's face he tried to move away but the weight in his left arm made him immovable.

He opened his eyes in frustration to release his arms but his eyes softened seeing the sleeping beauty in front of him...

Swara's eyes were swollen due to constant cries and puffed red nose. Her heart-shaped lips had slightly parted and she was snoring...

He chuckled and pulled her more into his embrace. she twisted. He stayed calm to see her reaction but she was sound asleep. He reduced the gap between them and engraved her features in his brain. She looked peaceful while sleeping. His palms grazed her cheeks and he left a small kiss on them. They were so soft.

Suddenly he withdrew his hands and placed back carefully on the bed. He refreshed and went downstairs to meet Adi.

He joined them. The trio was having morning talks, drinking coffee.

Swara woke up from her sleep and her eyes ached to see the person she wished to but he went missing. Sighingly Swara refreshed and hurried downstairs. Her mind was occupied with various thoughts. Sanskar was distancing himself but she doesn't know the reason.

She missed his morning smile, His warmth his encouragement. Unknowingly she placed her feet on the edge of the stair and tripped.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh" Swara screamed in fear.

Everyone was in shock. Sanskar ran towards her in a blink of an eye and saved her from falling further.

Swara closed her eyes in fear. Her breaths were uneven. Feeling no pain in her body she opened her beautiful orbs and saw Sanskar holding her like a doll. They shared cute eyelock.

"Ahem... ahem.. ahemm.... " The throat clearing voices brought swasan back to earth. They parted and stood in embarrassment...

Swara's face flushed red but Sanskar wasn't encouraging their jokes.

San: Don't you watch before you walk? Where was your mind? He scowled.

Swara, Adi and Ashi were in deep shock. They never expected him to burst out and that too at Swara. It was beyond their expectation.

San: What? Have I grown horns? He shouted again at them.

Adi: champ!!! What happened? Why are you behaving weirdly?

Ashi stayed calm.

Swara's eyes welled up with tears. Sorry, it was my mistake. She stammered.

Sanskar ignored them and went to have breakfast. Everyone ate in silence stealing glances. None knew the reason behind Sanskar's sudden outburst.

San: Eat fast Swara. We are leaving in 5 minutes.

Swara startled at his tone and confusion clouded her brain. "Where is he taking her? Please not back to them. She cried internally."

Adi: Easy champ. So where are you taking Swara?

San: University. She needs to study further. He stated sternly.

Swara hummed.

Ashi: But bhai what about her safety? What will happen if someone tries to kidnap her again?
