SS in Progress : Mrs and Mr Khanna ... Update on pg 275 - Page 91

Ragini had her own share of nightmares. Nightmares, where Nachiket was with her one moment, and wasn't, the next. The nightmare that woke her up in the early hours of morning and didn't let her sleep again, was the one where they were taking a walk, just like last night at India Gate. They were happy, he was laughing his deep throated laugh, the one where he threw his head back and his chest rumbled. He was pointing her to look at something when a cold wave passed them and instinctively, she turned to hide her face in his chest. But his chest was not there anymore to provide the warmth that she was seeking. She looked up to his face, but she saw thin air. He wasn't there. She looked around, but she saw no one. She was alone. She called his name, but she couldn't hear her own voice. Fear ran through her body and she screamed his name now. Again, no sound came out of her mouth. She wanted to go and find him, but it seemed she was rooted to her place by some invisible force. She couldn't move. She couldn't speak. She was sobbing hard now. She felt helpless. And then she felt something hard hit her stomach. Her eyes flew open. In his sleep, Nachiket had placed his arm over her stomach. Ragini blinked a few times to adjust to the dim light and get the remnants of the nightmare out of her mind.

It was just a nightmare!

They were in the hotel room. He was sleeping. He was here, with her, in her arms. She adjusted his face so that she could look at him. She didn't know when the tears had started. She brushed the hair off his forehead, her mind afraid to think anything and her heart, on the edge of breaking again. He is here. He is here! Her mind tried to convince her heart. Ragini removed his arm from her and got up from the bed. She couldn't sleep anymore, afraid the nightmare might return.

She had spent a long time in the shower and had come out only when the images from her nightmare returned. She had to check if he was there. He was. Still asleep, the worry lines on his forehead, made Ragini concerned and she rushed to his side.

"Ragini.." she heard him say when placed the back of her hand on his head. There was no fever. But his eyes were red. His hand went to his head and he shut his eyes tightly because of the pain.

"I'll call for some coffee. Take something for the hangover," said Ragini.
