in candle light they all sit shocked in the evenin as they hear on the radio of dead bodies floatin in the water....and that the level of water had risen upto 12 feet high at some places.... finally at 8 in the night...shaina calls from a pco to tell aryan that she's fine and that she will try to reach the office....
what she did not tell aryan was of the turmoil she was goin thru...the number of dead bodies she had seen....the tiredness and weakness she was feelin....and how miserably she wanted to be home and fall into his arms......
(here i would like to mention that on the day of 26th...a number of ppl did suffer mentally and emotionally at what they had seen....i consider myself lucky as i was saved as i came home early....but i had heard of all my frnz sufferings....how they lived without food and just biscuits as they waded thru the filthy water and gutters....one of my seniors lost his life that day....i remember cryin for him thoi dint know him...that day was nature at its worst! even then... some love stories and frndships were born....but i am happy i was spared the adventure as u never know which way fate would have turned...)
anyway...shaina's cellphone had long switched itself off....and she waded thru the water for hours.... in the office...aryan looks at sunny sleepin on the couch and feels increasinly terible as he is helpless to do anything....goin out to look for her would have been madness.....
at 2 o clock in the night .... shaina sees the dark ss office building before her...to anyone else...it would have looked like its haunted...but to shaina it only meant home...it meant aryan....
aryan is at the reception tryin to make a call when shaina arrives at the door....she's a complete mess!!! her white shirt all brown with the water and she is drenched from head to toe...thru every bone...yet when she sees him ...she smiles...when he looks up and sees her...he is stunned....she walks upto him and b4 he can say a word she colapses into his arms...there b4 the whole office....aryan is also overwhelmed with emotion and holds her tight....he was almost sure he had lost her forever....he kisses her forehead and then neha comes forward to ask her if she's ok.... shaina says yes and asks for sunny...aryan had told her that he would collect him... neha assures her he's fine ...and takes her away so she can change into something dry...
shaina meets sunny sleepin on the couch and hugs and kisses him lightly...so as not to awaken him....
the entire ss crew(or family...should i say now...) spends the night at the office...
but thrs lots more to happen....! 😉
