PENTHOUSE-2

A very happy Holi to everyone... I know it's been quite some time since I disappeared without a trace or explanation, but I just needed this time to focus and work on myself. I was busy with my classes, and then life happened. Oh boy, I can't even put it out in words the amount of twists and turns I went through all these years, and it has changed me completely as a person. 

Lately, I have been dealing with anxiety and trying to deal with many things, so please excuse me for my absence, and I am relieved to still receive messages from a few of you asking if I will ever update or not.

So this is an update for all my readers who waited impatiently for this part, and I apologize once again for my absence.

HAPPY HOLI EVERYONE.

Sanskaar's Bedroom:

Sanskaar made Ragini lie over the recliner as soon as he reached the room. His room was still a mess, with his broken phone, empty bottles, and pillows scattered all around. He was still under the effect of alcohol but somehow he managed to balance his steps and carry her all the way to his room. After placing her over the recliner, he started cleaning the bed to shift his princess from the uncomfortable space to a more comfortable one. While doing so he stumbled over a bottle rolling around the foot space of his bed and as a result, he fell over his butt knocking off a few things kept on the side table, leading to a sound that finally woke up the sleeping beauty from her deep slumber. 

As soon as Ragini heard the sound of something falling, she immediately woke up and tried to grasp where she was and what time of day it was. She was all confused and still not fully awake when she saw the shadow of someone lying on the ground, just a few steps away from her. The room was not fully lit, so she wasn't able to see clearly yet when she saw herself lying in a room with someone else in it her sleepiness flew out the window and she stood up in a hurry to check her surroundings. But fate had some other plans for these two love-sick people. As soon as she stood and took a step ahead, her foot got entangled with the displaced carpet, and there she went, falling over the carpet over her stomach. Hearing her fall, Sanskaar raised his head and looked in her direction to see what happened, when he saw her falling and joining him over the floor. His eyes went wide and he immediately crawled in her direction to see if she got hurt. He was mentally blaming himself already for making her wait over the entrance, and now she is hurt all because of him. By the time Ragini composed herself after falling and was trying to get up, she heard his voice and froze with her eyes wide finally realizing who the other person was.

S: Giniiiii...... fuckk.... ginni wait there don't move I am coming.

By the time sanskaar reached near her, ragini was all nervous and scared of his reaction. She was expecting him to blast his anger over her and shout and accuse her for everything she has done, when she felt his soothing touch over her shoulders, trying to help her get up.

Sanskaar helped Ragini and himself to finally stand up from the ground. Suddenly, he remembered about the lights and swiftly turned around to turn the lights on to avoid further mishaps. On his way to the switch, he kicked few items and even stumbled over the recliner edge, groaning and getting hurt by the sharp end. Ragini jumped in to help his pathetic condition, as by now she had realized that he was not his senses, and she must do something immediately to stop him from causing any further harm. She swiftly held his hand when his foot knocked off the recliner edge to prevent him from falling yet again. Both of them balanced each other, and somehow reached the switch board to turn the lights on. As soon as the room lit up with blazing lights, Sanskaar groaned again and immediately hugged Ragini to hide his face from the sudden lights, blinding his vision and increasing his headache. Ragini stilled and stood frozen at her spot, feeling him this close with his face pressed into her neck and his hands holding hers tightly over her elbows, thus restricting her movement. While Sanskaar was trying to dodge the bright light, he didn't realize what he had done until her scent filled up his nostrils bringing a sweet smile and calmness to his face. He felt relaxed after ages and pulled her closer to cherish this homely feeling he had been missing.
