Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.
No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful the experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster'

"Its great he is not in room" she thought after finishing her shower. There is nothing to wear for her so she went in his walk in closet to cover herself.There were brief, boxers, shots but she didn't picked any. It will be very intimate to wear his undergarment. She moved ahead and there is shirts, tshirt, pants, jeans and suits. She picked his favourite white linen shirt which has intrinsic print on the back side. It perfectly fit to his masculine body. He loved it like anything and perfect for her to annoy him.She wore it and pick her stained muddy clothes from floor. She went to washing area of the house which is in the basement of house. She keenly took each step near the stairs to prevent herself from falling. It took her two hours to finish the laundry.

Its past mid night and there is no sign of him, coming in room. She didn't know why she became worried for him. Its uncalled for her. There is light striking in the sky and lights of mansion shut down. There is complete dark. She gulped her saliva to wet her dried throat. Her senses heightened to sense any danger coming her way. She closed her eyes to relax herself. She moved towards the flattering window which is producing terrifying sound. She hold the window and light came. Her eyes stopped on the open cottage which is round shaped. There is large wooden sticks around it to support it. The follr is smooth and flashy probably made by granite. There is square shaped bamboo table and chairs placed at one side making it perfect place to relax. She notices some movement there so focused her eyes. Her eyes widened by watching the happenings below. Akshay gulped half bottle of liquor in one go and threw it on floor. He moved wobbly. She wants to give him support. He lost his balance while trying to pick something from floor and fell on the floor.
"Should I go and help him? "
The thought is amazing but..she isn't there with for a long time. She just stared him from a far. His lips were mumbling something. His hairs were messy. Clothes were creased. He noticed something and turned his face towards the window. She immediately hide herself. Her heart is beating like someone caught her stealing the cake.
She stays as such and slowly peek through the window. The spot he occupied few minutes ago is empty now. Her eyes searched for him.

"I am here." his voice came from behind.
She turned around and find him moving towards the bed.She stay rooted to her place. She doesn't know what is the outcome of her words and action. Effect of alcohol is clearly visible to her. His eyes were blood shot red and puffy. His clothes partially drenched in rain. He falls on the bed with a jerk leaving many questions in her mind.

She wakes up in the morning and a yawn automatically came out from her mouth. She stretched her arms and forward her hand to get her phone from the side table. She doesn't get it. There is something square like, her eyes opened fully. She is in his room, wearing only his shirt.

"What's wrong with me. I should have worn undergarments."
She thank heaven as he is not in the room. She listened his faint voice coming from the balcony.

"She will not come from now on." she heard him. He is talking about whom? Who is not going where? Curiosity arise in her mind. She took cautious baby steps towards his direction. His back was facing her. He is holding cellphone having barbi doll back design." when did.... Its not his.. Its....

"What are you doing with my phone." snatched her phone. She feed her password and 'wrong pin' flashes on the screen.

"What the hell.How dare you change password of my phone?" she accused him.

He snatched the phone again and typed something "Just like this." he waved the phone in front of her face. "If you are stupid to the extent that set a very easy password. What is my fault?"
