It was worthwhile each second of those two minutes to watch colors changing on Ahem's face. The changed ambience put him into disbelief and realizing the truth of his dream, he found it hard to gather himself. He was pleasantly romancing with her in his dream and finding himself on the couch yet again, he was left clueless and blank for a moment. For him dream seemed to be reality and reality a forgettable truth.
To her regular question of attending to his needs "Aapko kuchh chaahiye?" or "Do you want something?" he could just not meet her eyes. What could he have possibly said? I want you or I need you. His face reflected the same but he failed to convert what he had in heart to words.
Getting back to his usual stiff mode, he told her to switch off the lights. She slept off after having few moments of worry for him but unable to get an answer kept quiet yet again.
He looked at her radiant face as she dozed off and his lips moved into a faint smile with the realization that she is his and one day he would be able to tell her all that he feels for her.
He didn't at all look disturbed or tensed, though a bit restless as she slept off but looking at her erased all the lines on his face. He was surely amazed at her wife having the capability to bring him into an imaginative world with her as he breathed one final glance at her before dozing off into her dreams once more!
