Darshan woke up with a startled mind , drenched with cold sweat, heavily breathing . The alarm was ringing loudly in his ear , he stopped it with shaky hand and then gulped down a glass of water ; he again had a dream in the earlier hour of the morning .
"What was that about ?!" Darshan whispered in between his breath .
He was wandering about the most awkward dream in these months . In all those six months the dreams kept appearing in sudden timing when he tried to sleep at night . He always stayed exhausted for all the daytimes but couldn't get sleep as the dreams continued appearing sometimes even at daytime . He dreamed about strange places , strange things sometimes spirits or souls but never about a single person ."I never dreamed about a single person let alone dreaming about four ! What were they ?! Dressed in long robes , had powerful auras....and.... and what they were talking about ?! Urghhhh...! Why on Jag-Ath it was all blurry today ?! I couldn't clearly see their face , hearing their conversation is far more impossible! "
Darshan didn't know for how long he was lost until the alarm rang again at five minutes past six , he kept aside the thought and woke up with a heavy head . He got ready and took his bag which he had packed last night as he planned for going home . Darshan locked the room and went out of the campus . He went to his restaurant for breakfast .
It was almost 7 and since the restaurant provided home delivery in the morning so it was almost empty except some regular morning customers . When his gaze fell on his regular table , he noticed it was already occupied . Yash , siting on Darshan's last night's seat was indicating him to go over there .
Seeing Yash's gentle , sweet , breath taking smile Darshan whose mood was all reckless got an inner peace and to his astonishment a smile appeared on his lips too . He went to the table and sat down , in front of him were his breakfast already ordered with a cup of strong coffee . He felt relieved to have the hot coffee and took few sips before looking at Yash again who was questioningly watching him ."Sorry , I have a heavy head today . By the way good morning , Yash ."
"Good morning . Why do you have a headache ? You didn't sleep well last night? " Yash's voice was genuinely worried .
"Sleep ? That's the thing I can't have . I'm having all these dreams about......"
Darshan still couldn't stop spilling ."That's ok , relax and have your breakfast first , then we can talk ."
Yash's expression was sad but he avoided it and they both joined in eating .After finishing their food , when they were out of the restaurant , Yash noticed that Darshan had a bagpack behind his back .
He asked "You're going somewhere today ?"
"Yes , I'm going home for new year holidays ."
"Oh ! I nearly forgot that you have a home . So you're going to the depot right ? I can give you a ride ."
Darshan was about to say something but stopped as Yash suddenly started dragging him , holding his hand . He unexpectedly felt the warmth , the affection within the unexplainable familiarity with the touch of the man in front of him . A red tint rose all over his face down to his neck , he was blushing . When they reached Yash's jeep , Yash stopped and saw darshan's face . As if he didn't hold Darshan's hand knowingly , he suddenly let go .
"Sorry , if you don't want to go with me then I'll not force ."
Yash's expression created a wrench in Darshan's heart , he answered "No no it's very kind of you , I'll take the ride ."
They hopped in the jeep , after driving silently for some minutes , Yash asked about the previous matter
"So you have dreams too about those things ?""I used to see them with opened eyes , not in my dreams until I came here . Here I'm having these whenever I try to sleep !"
Darshan's voice had a bitterness ."You're having dreams all these months ?! That means you couldn't sleep peacefully at all !"
Yash's expression was astonished and pained .Darshan , who was watching Yash carefully , noticed that he had a yellowish tint in his complexion , he didn't see it that night , but in the fresh morning sun the colour was glowing , almost golden . His coal-black hair wasn't messy but not neatly combed either , Darshan was mesmerised .
Yash didn't have any answer from him but kept talking "Your life is such a haunting mess ! No problem , I can handle it ."
That brought Darshan's attention back , "what ?! What do you have to do with my haunting life ?!"
"Hey ! I told you that last night . Yes I didn't bring up it again but that doesn't mean I was just simply flirting !"
Yash's voice had urge.Darshan was lost for answer, he countered with another question , "you didn't give me a reasonable cause for believing me , how can....."
Yash didn't let him finish "how can you know I'm not playing around ? Look , I just know you don't have a normal happy life and you never got a support to balance your heart within these , not even from your mom . I don't know if I can ever make you feel normal but I can ensure the happiness you need, to do justice to your heart ."
stopping the jeep Yash looked into Darshan's eyes , they had reached the depot .
Yash's golden brown eyes were glistening with affection which Darshan knew was a permanent truth . He couldn't afford so much care all of a sudden , more than that he was afraid for Yash's life . He had an ominous feeling that his life was going to be more tangled with his power and he didn't want his heart to come in its way . So he decided to act on , feigning anger and irritation he answered
"don't you understand it ? I don't have any interest in you , not even an inch !"Then he got down from the jeep and stormed out of Yash's sight while his heart really felt an opened injustice .
