Hi everyone!

I have written this with a hope that we get something sensible (communication) between Shiva and Raavi.

It did not turn out how I was planning in my head but still, I hope you like it 😊

Enjoy!!

WORDS

Raavi learnt two things today, first, Shiva is stupid and second she is possessive about him. Seeing him standing next to Disha made her realise that.

She was trying to get some sleep but the moment she was closing her eyes, the image of Shiva jumping into the well was coming in front of her. That image was shaking her mind. “I should go for a walk and get some fresh air” she thought to herself.

The moment she stepped out, she saw Shiva sleeping in the aangan with one of his arms under his head. “He is weird; how can he sleep like this? I would experience a cramp by keeping my arm in this position but he, nope…weirdo!” Raavi was lost in her thought and did not realise that Shiva was looking straight at her.

“What are you doing here at this time of the night? And why are you looking at me?”Shiva asked a very much surprised Raavi.

“I came here because…” Raavi was unable to find any coherent words; “where is Krish?” She asked trying to cover up.

Shiva smirked a little, knowing what she was trying to cover up and answered her “he is sleeping in mom’s room, she was pretty shaken up with what happened today.”

“I can understand, I am also having this restlessness since…” Raavi shared with Shiva and much to her surprise, he listened.

“Do you want water?” Shiva asked.

Raavi nodded and he got her a glass of water. Raavi sat down on the cot next to Shiva and was just waiting for him to start a conversation. Shiva, on the other hand was waiting for Raavi to do the needful. But both of them felt a sense of comfort in their silence. They stayed like this for an hour or so when Raavi started feeling a bit sleepy. She decided to go to her room but was stopped by Shiva.

“You can sleep here…” Shiva said pointing towards Krish’s cot but then started fumbling with words when he looked at Raavi, who was standing there with a smile. “What I mean is, you will feel better in open space, you should not sleep in a closed room.”

Raavi did not say much and laid down on the cot but did not take her eyes off Shiva. Shiva on the other hand, did the same thing and kept his eyes glued on Raavi.

“You should thank me for stopping the engagement. You would have gotten engaged if I were not so strong.” Raavi exclaimed. Shiva gave her a shy smile.

“Why are you smiling?” She asked him.

After a minute, Shiva started talking.

“What I did till now and what I was about to do today was wrong. It was wrong to you, to Disha and to myself. I should not have. I know one thing, I wouldn’t have married her irrespective of you stopping or not stopping the engagement.” Raavi was surprised seeing this honest and sensible side of Shiva. She just asked him why with a shake of her head.

Shiva knew that it is time to tell the truth to her. “Because…” Shiva was unable to express what he wanted to. But he did not want to lose this opportunity.

“Because I cannot give your place to someone else, not even if I try to. You are too important to me.” Shiva said everything looking at the ceiling above him. He then turned around to have a look at her, she was just looking at him but Shiva was unable to read her face.

“I guess we should get some sleep. It is too late. Good night, Raavi” Shiva said.

“Good night, Shiva” Raavi said with a smile plastered on her face. It was indeed a good night for her.

This was one of the most meaningful conversations they had in a long time. They felt content. One thing they both knew in their hearts was though they slept on separate cots but they will cover that distance very soon.
