' Noooo papaaaaa noooooo don't leave me please ' Mishka shouted and opened her eyes .Her eyes are puffy . 

Aarav got up from the cough with jerk and came near . Mishka was breathing unevenly . Her forehead is covered with sweats . She again had the same nightmare . Aarav rubbed her back ' What happened Mishka ?'

Mishka immediately hugged him . She was hugging him like her life depends on him. Aarav also hugged her back . 

' Mishka calm down .' he caressed her hair . 

' Aarav Papa is fine na ? He is fine .' Mishka's voice was cracking . 

' Yes yes he is fine . Uncle is fine .' Aarav said rubbing her back . 

He didn't broke the hug until she calmed down . He was caressing her hair . 

Aarav said ' Listen Mishka it just a bad dream . I promised you na that Uncle will be fine soon . You don't believe me ? ' 

Mishka ' No Aarav I believe you . And he will be fine ' . She sounded like a baby .

This made a small smile on Aarav's face . 

Aarav ' Keep faith on me . Now sleep you have college also .'

She drank the water . He tucked her in the bed . Then he caressed her hairs . When he felt that she was slept he was about to move . 

Mishka  ' Don't go please .' She stopped him by catching his hand . 

Aarav became shocked ' Mishka I am here . I am sleeping on the cough only . '

Mishka said slowly ' Ummm can you please sleep beside me ? I am .... '

Aarav nodded his head in yes . He went to the cough took his pillow and settled beside her . 

For the first time they are sleeping together after 6 months of their marriage . 

Aarav came  near her . He again started caressing her hair .  

After sometimes she dozed off . Aarav kissed her forehead and said ' Everything will be fine my little wife .' He also slept .

In the morning 

They were sleeping in each other's arms . For the first time they are sleeping like this . Aarav was the one who got up first .He slowly climbed down the bed slowly not to disturb her. He got ready in his casuals as he is going to cook breakfast for his wife . 

He went to kitchen and saw that chief and other workers are here . 

He said ' Mita kaaki I will make breakfast today . You can make lunch and we will have dinner outside .'

' Thik hai  Aarav baba . Mishu beti will love your food . '  Mita kaaki said cheerfully . 

He also smiled and said ' Hope so .'

After completing cooking he made the table ready . 

He went inside her room . He woke her up and said ' Mishka go and get ready . I am waiting for you in the table .'

Mishka got ready in her cloths for her college .
