Chapter five- The beginning of change It pained Shivaay to see Anika this way. He inched closer to her, making sure he made no noise. Even though he knew she was unconscious, he didn’t dare make a noise. He pulled the blinds and allowed the fresh morning air to wipe his face. The sun entered the room and the birds chirped. It was a chilly day. It was still early in morning. Shivaay dragged the chair from the window side and it made a little scraping noise. He settled himself beside Anika and almost instantly the tears came. There…

CHAPTER FOUR MEMORIES OF THE PAST Shivaay blinked his eyes a few times. Whatever he was expecting, was definitely not this. No, he had not even imagined it in his dreams. Not the nightmares. Seeing his wife all bruised. He took small baby steps towards her. She had cuts all over her hands, some fresh while some were drying . Blood covered her skin. Her skin was pale except the the blood stains. And her shirt, it was soaked in blood. It broke everything in him. He stumbled and then sat down on the stool beside her. She…

CHAPTER THREE THE MISERY OF LOSING YOU Shivaay’s phone buzzed. He opened his eyes and picked up his phone. Squinting his eyes, he saw the caller ID ‘Om’. He sighed, Om must be worried about him. Even though he didn’t see a reason to be worried but he knew his brother was. He picked up the call and held it to his ear. “How are you feeling?” he heard Om’s calm voice from the other end yet he could hear the slight note of panic in his voice. “I’m fine, don’t worry” Shivaay replied. He rubbed his temple. The…

CHAPTER TWO HOSPITAL VISITS The door of his room creaked open. His vision was blurred. He didn’t knew if it were from the dizziness he felt or the the tears that were threatening to spill out of his eyes. Even through his blurry vision he could still see the panicky figure of his brother. Rudra. He smiled and soon black dots started clouding his vision. And then everything went black. Shivaay felt water droplets on his face. He batted his eyelashes and stirred. Slowly, he opened his eyes with difficulty and saw a vaguely familiar white ceiling. Yesterday’s event…

CHAPTER ONE NIGHTMARES Thud. Shivaay snapped his eyes open and sat up straight, panting. Another nightmare. It was almost a daily routine. Everyday he would wake up after a nightmare but this time it was more terrifying. It left an uncertain feeling in his heart. They both were in a dark room, she was there. He saw her right in front of his eyes. He ran and ran but he couldn’t reach her. She was drifting away and slowly he saw her collapse on the floor. He leapt to his feet and poured himself water. Gulping it down, he stared…

She looked nothing but miserable. Her skin was pale except the blood stains on her skin. Cuts, bruises, scars and blood. Her shirt soaked in blood. But that didn’t scare him the most, the look on her face was terrifying. That moment he felt his heart stop. It had all been his fault. His…

“It’s going to be alright” he patted her cheek. “I’m with you” he entwined his hands with hers. “Just hope so.. ” she said as she looked at their entwined hands. A feeling of satisfaction in her. For whenever he was with her, she felt secure. “Did I tell you that you look beautiful?” he kissed her hand. His lips lingered there for a brief moment before he pulled away. “Your lips didn’t but your eyes did and you know, eyes speak louder than words. ” she looked in his bluish gray orbs as she wrapped her arms around his…

“Finally I’m home” Swara said pouring the water in the jug and sat near her sister. “Swara what do you think about love?” Anika asked thinking about Naina’s words. Swara spit out the water from her mouth and Anika came out of her thoughts. “Are you OK?” Anika asked concerned. “Di am I dreaming?” Swara asked with wide eyes. “No but what happened baby?” Anika asked, confused. “The great Anika Kapoor is talking about love?! Weird isn’t it? ” Swara said dramatically. “Why are you being so dramatic? I just asked because my friend wanted to know” Anika replied. “Which…

Anika’s POV I leaned back in my chair and shut my eyes. I had taken notes of all the important stuff from these three big binders. “Having a good time, Miss. Shekawat?” Samar chuckled as soon as I opened my eyes. I gave him a sarcastic smile, “Of course! Who wouldn’t enjoying having so many presentation lined up. I just say I’m having the time of my life” sarcasm dripped from my mouth. “Sarcastic much? ” “Idiotic much? ” I cross questioned. “I know it’s a lot of work but your work certainly does increase after a promotion but I…
