Kunj woke up hearing the bell of sarna mansion ringing.His eyes looked for the clcok on mantel piece. It was one in the morning.he wondered who it was and hurried to open the door praying it wasn't her.
If she was here this late it only meant one thing and he hated her tears.
There she was, standing outside shivering and looking lost.
"Can I...? " she asked.
"Of course." he answered on reflex.he led her in.coming into the living room he saw her gazing at a candle that was still lit.
He shut the door and joined her. Seeing her forlorn gaze he wrapped his arm around her tightly.
"You had the nightmare again?" he asked.
She nodded, not sure if her voice would come out clear.
He tightened his arms around her more and she relaxed into him, basking in the comfort of his body around hers like always.
He held her as both relaxed in eachothers embrace.
Sometime later he held her up.supporting her."Come on."he led her to his bedroom amd tucked her in.
Turning off the lights he layed beside her.
She snuggled into his chest and he wrapped his arms around her."Sleep twinkle.ill be here like always." Hearing this she relaxed as he covered them with a blanket. Somehow she always slept the best with him near by.she knew he would never leave her. And he never did.
They were best of friends since college.
Her nightmares had diminished after all time did heal evrrything but some dark nights like this one brought back the horrors yuvi had put her through by kidnapping her.kunj would never forget the night he had rescued her after searching for her like a mad man for 48 hours. No one except kunj knew what exactly had happened in those 48 hours.not even leela taneja twinkles mom.who thought yuvi was perfect husband material for twinkle.
Yuvi had been exposed to be a obsessive control freak who got kick out of seeing twinkle helpless begging to be let go. He had wanted to marry her forcefully after seeing how.close she and kunj were.
Kunj always blamed himself for that too.to an outsider they did come off as a couple. It was his fault he should have recognise yuvis behaviour earlier. He had been acting all moody and angry thr day before twinkle was kidnapped.
It wasn't odd for them to be mistaken as a couple,they always brushed off those rumors bevahse they truly belived they were just best friends but yuvi could not. He sensed the connection between them that they had yet to realize.those 48 hours were hell for twinkle not because yuvi had betrayed her trust. That was part of the reason. Her personal hell had been when she was made to believe that kunj had died. Yuvi had some pretty solid proofs indicating kunjs demise amd that had broken her completely knowing their friendship was the cause if his death had a profound impact on her strength. She had been saved from a nervous breakdown as kunj rescued her. He still knew she hadn't belive he was Alive for an hour after the rescue. She thought he was her haullicination.
Kunj too had nightmares of his own. But he had learned to battle them for her sake.
Her limo body falling on the rock had him paralysed in fear but he always remembered the warm of her body to forget the horrors of his own personal hell.
With kunjs help twinkle had closed the chapter of her past named yuvi and he helped her heal from the trauma.
Realizing his own feelings on the way for her. He had vowed he wouldn't push her until she was completely ready. She had yet to completely heal and as long as she took he would wait for her. Till then he would be her support,her strength,her courage and her best friend.
Twinklw sighed in contenment. She didn't have nightmares frequently. but when she did she couldn't sleep with out him by her side.
So at times like this twinkle didn't want to be strong instead she took comfort in Kunj's strength.
Kunj held her close,kissing her forehead as she slept peacefully.his warm embrace kept her nightmares far far away.
