He opened his eyes and saw her distressed face, he clenched his jaw and asked in irritation.

" now what have I done?" thinking unknowingly he had hurt her once again. She shook her head in negation then lowered it quietly, he lifted her chin up with his index finger so that she could face him then stared into her eyes which had turned moist. She met his questioning glare then spoke softly trying to push back her tears," Arnav ji, had the bullet hit you a little lower .." her throat went dry and she couldn't complete herself but he understood all that she wanted to say, her tears told him how deeply moved she was after seeing him like this.

He placed his left hand on her cheek and brushed off the tear with his thumb," as long as I have daadi's blessings and your prayers with me nothing will happen to me." She held his hand holding her and whispered," but what if." He kept his finger on her lips to silence her," khushi, not the bullet but your tears definitely pierce through my heart."

She blinked her eyes as fresh tears escaped from them, he brought her face close to himself and kissed her forehead softly. She rested her head on his chest a little away from the wounded area, he held her close with his left hand and wondered what was happening between them, why did his pain reflect in her eyes and why did her tears made him feel miserable? His mind had no answer. She curled up in his warm embrace and felt alive. Her several attempts to not lose herself to him were failing, she couldn't refrain herself from getting drawn toward him even though she was aware what the future held for them. She didn't want to think how her life would change in the coming months, nor did she bother, all she desired was to cherish this moment.
