•ANNIKA•
She woke up to find herself wrapped gently in his arms. His hands were around her waist while her head on his chest. She looked up to see him sleeping peacefully. The memories of last night flashed in front of her eyes, they crossed her mind making her blush. The way he touched her, kissed her, loved her purified her soul, made her feel blessed but suddenly a fear gripped her mind. Her heartbeat started beating faster.
"What if he forgot everything that happened?"
"What if he regretted what all happened?"
"What if he tried to ignore her?"
She slowly parted herself from him. Her eyes started pooling up. She went into the washroom & saw the bedsheet. It was a proof of their love. It was a proof of their union. She felt her eyes shedding tears. She gave herself to him but now she was scared. She was not regretting but she feared herself. She knew this night has changed everything, she knew she started loving him more now & that was what she was scared of. After giving her to him completely, she felt her soul, mind & body connected more strongly to him. She did all that to take away all his pain & to be honest she actually took his pain. Now she was in pain. She hugged her legs, burrying her head between them she cried. After sometime she knew he might wake up at any moment so she went to get some lemon juice for him.

•SHIVIKA•
He woke up to find himself in terrific hangover. He saw her standing near the bed taking out something from the cupboard. The table on the side of his bed had a glass full of lemon juice.
"Good morning" she said smiling at him.
"Morning" he said. She was looking at him curiously, she wanted to know what would be his reaction after last night.
"Annikaaa..I" he said pressing his head with his hands.
"Drink the lemon juice Shivay! You have got a hangover" she said giving him the glass.
He drank the juice, she was waiting for him to speak something. But he was quiet. Her heartbeat racing faster against her chest.
"Did I came drank last night? I m sorry Annika, I must have troubled you right?"
Annika felt the floor slipping off her feets. "He doesnt even remembers that he came drank? This means he doesn't remembers about anything that happened between us?"
She felt like killing herself. She knew there are high chances of him forgetting all that, but still some part of her wanted & believed that he will remember it. But alas! All her hopes got shattered again. She didnt said anything & went into the washroom.

•ANNIKA•
She cursed herself for hoping something that was not possible. She knew she can barely expect happiness for her. She knew she can never get what she wants. She tried to control her tears but damn they always rolled out in tonns when she wanted them to stop. She was really frustrated. She saw the white bedsheet stained with her blood. She quickly started cleaning it. She didnt hik to see it for she knew he will regret it.

•SHIVAY•
Shivay could feel something was different about this morning. The moment he woke up he felt different. He felt relaxed & light. It was a soothing feel, the feeling was very strange yet new. It was as if something has changed. His eyes went towards her. She looked more beautiful today, the glow on her face shining like the moonlight on snow. He was trying hard to think about how he came drank last night but his mind was blank. He could think of nothing and when he saw her going towards the washroom without saying anything to him, he got more confused.
He followed her & saw her cleaning the bedsheet. There were some red stains on the bedsheet.
"Annika!!! What is this?" he asked looking at her confusingly.
She didnt turned but got baffled & tried to hide the bedsheet.
"Noth..Nothing Shivay, actually I dropped some nailpaint on the bedsheet so thought of cleaning it" she lied.
He was not convinced, she was not looking fine. He was about to say something to her when Martha came.
"Sir, the doctor wants to meet you urgently"
"I m just coming Shivay said, while following her".
