Ishitha's pov:

It's seven in the morning and i didn't get a wink since what I have realised behind his unexpected leave.

I am looking outside the window but nothing in particular, mirror beside the window is showing my pale tear streaked face. Tears didn't stop flowing from my eyes at that moment and now they are burning and are looking life less.

  The weather is windy today, it's seems like it's going to pour any moment.

A harsh breeze hit the window making it swing for a while, now that cool air is slowly occupying all my surroundings but i could care less about the window and my health right now.

My phone has been pinging with notifications from different apps since six o clock but I don't wanna get disappointed by looking at the device of no information and intimation from him.

I think we lost it  permanently this time
he left me again
The little relationship we built is now no more I think.

I heard door opening maybe he is finally here after abandoning me whole night successfully.

I don't wanna look at him
I can't take that remorseful look on his face. I wanna escape but where ?

I have no energy left in my body to even move my finger
My legs are weak and numb
And I am emotionally exhausted too
God have some pity on me.

Our bedroom door slowly opened revealing his face
It's not the same like last night it's all filled with dark circles and exhaustion. Did he cried or what? his eyes are blood shoot. The thought made me want to kill my self
I don't wanna trouble him.

He entered Stealthyly inside
Dropped keys on a nearby table
Then he looked up unlike what I had expected it didn't showed any regret or sadness ,he is making me more confused.

"Why did you wake up?" He asked removing his jacket "And why did you opened window ishitha, this cold air will effect your health" He walked to the windows and closed them after that turned to me. "I got a call from hospital at midnight asking for my presence, it's a kid with a chronic disease, his pulse decreased out of blue now he is stable though" He is now sitting on bed beside me looking beautiful even with those red eyes
"How are you feeling, you are looking so pale? " His fingers pushed my baby hairs behind my ears "I am taking a day off today" He said yawning then  made himself comfortable on bed and draped a comforter till his stomach "come on I am waiting , cuddle with me" He said beckoning me to fall into his embrace by opening one side comforter for me to enter , without wasting a second I laid beside him, he pulled my upper half body onto his chest
"now it's better" He sighed ruffling my hair "sleep" He whispered and pulled the comforter till my neck he kissed my forehead before drifting into his dreamland.

I am crying out of happiness
On his chest, slowly drenching his shirt with my salty tears. The thought of making him awake with my cries stopped me from crying anymore.
with a big grin on my face and in the warmth radiating from this man I slept like a baby for the next few hours.
