It was the next day. The new hope for Dev, but Sonakshi was even happier.
The last night's deal makes her smile. Her eyes were composed of glittery happiness.
After preparing two cups of coffee, she proceeds to his room. Her husband's room!
He was sitting in the duvet, with his deep thoughts. She stands even more close to him. And sits beside him.
"Dev....."
"........."
"It's time to go to work Mr. Dixit"
"I know...." He frowns.
"What happened? Are you upset?"
"Why do you care?" He shouts.
"Did you forget about the deal?"
"Ya whatever.... Just don't rule over me"
"Have this coffee"
"Are you ruling over me?"
"Not at all"
"It's alright then"
"But Dev-"
"You should wait-"
"Are you again trying to rule over me?"
"No... But you should listen-"
"Shut up" he takes a sip and moans, "Ah.... it's so hot.... Shouldn't you have informed me?"
"You've asked me to be quiet!" She claims controlling her laugh.

"Dev... Today you'll drop me and pick me as well." Sonakshi orders chuckling.
"Get lost" he fumes finishing his breakfast. The vibe was positive.
"One month promise" she taunts.
"Fine" he fumes.
The week passed well for few days.
*
"Are you ready for today?" She asks entering in his room while he just has woken up.
"Why? For what?" He asks when he sits up on his bed.
"For your counseling. For your treatment."
"I don't want that"
"But you need it."
"Sonakshi... Just a big no." He declares.
"I'm not asking for your opinion for sure" she fumes.
"I said I don't want to" he shouts.
"Do you even remember what you did last night?" She asks folding her hands.
"What?"
"You had a nightmare. You were screaming in your sleep"
"I'm getting late... I need to rush." He avoids her and gets in the washroom.
She sighs.
*
In the evening, when he was on his way to pick her up, his phone rings.
"Hello"
"Hello" the voice comes.
He stops his car as fast as he could. He remembers the voice, it's the devil.
"Darling"
"......." Dev was numb to say anything.
