"You go. I'll be at the Bhopal airport before you even reach there."
Shrithik said to Sameera, keeping her luggage above her seat.

Sameera sat down on the seat as she was blocking the way, and then looked at Shrithik and spoke

"But why can't you come with me? This seat is big enough for us to share. Or tell me I'll book another one for you."

He smiled at her and kissed her forehead.
"Don't worry sweetheart. I'll be there. Really. I've got some things to do. Bye."

Sameera couldn't say anything as suddenly he was not there. She really couldn't believe that he can just teleport.

She sighed and leaned back in her seat. She closed her eyes, hoping that the next two hours pass peacefully.

When she was coming to the airport Shrithik suddenly said that he'll come afterwards. She was confused as to why? But she was still thinking that he might not turn up.

She didn't know when she slept. But she woke up when the person beside her shook her.

"Sweetheart! Wake up sweetheart."

She jerked up and looked beside her, ready to scold that stranger. But that stranger took her breath away.

"Old man? When did you get here?"

He grinned.

"The moment you fell asleep. You know I forgot to pack my clothes."

He said rubbing his neck and she grinned.

"Okay. Let's go."
She said and stood up and started making her way to the exit.

"Your bags?"

"You are bringing them right?"
She asked turning her head to the side.

"Oh yeah. I'm your coolie right?"
She grinned and continued walking. Shrithik followed behind her.

She booked a cab and asked the driver to drive to the railway station.

When they were at railway station, waiting for the train, he asked

"Why here?"

"Because there is not an airport in Hoshangabad and it's a three hour bus ride from here to there. Train is just an hour."

She said and immediately the speaker announced the arrival of the train.

They sat in their seat and Sameera sighed.

"Finally. I'm going back."

Shrithik smiled and looked out of the window. Soon he felt her in his arms and he hugged her. And soon they both were asleep.

"दीदी! आपका स्टेशन आ गया।"
(Transliteration: Didi! Aapka station aa gaya.
Translation: Sister! Your station has come.")

A boy said loudly and they both got startled. It was for Shrithik's grip that she was not on the floor.

"Uh.....Thanks bro."

The guy smiled and walked away.
Sameera stood up and stretched. And then quickly got off the train.

"It stops here for just 5 minutes. Thanks for that guy who woke me up early."

She said and Shrithik yawned holding her bags.

Sameera then took an auto rickshaw and they both went to her home.
After paying the driver Sameera turned to Shrithik.

"And....we're here."
Shrithik was already looking at her house and his surroundings.

There was a big truck parked in front of the two story house. It was two seperate house on the top of each other.

And he also saw a lady come out quickly along with a girl and a guy in their mid twenties probably.

"Mummy!"
Sameera exclaimed and hugged her mother tight. Her mother also kissed her on the cheek and she turned towards her brother.

"Yo bhaiya! Missed me?"
She asked and he snorted.

"Don't dream."

"Aww man. You're a bad liar."
Sameera grinned and he tsked.

"And by the way you still haven't gifted me my printed bedsheets. I'll guess they'll be my gift this Diwali right? Right!"
She answered herself and her brother gaped at her laughing.

Shrithik smiled. It was clear that she annoyed her brother a lot.

Then Sameera turned to her sister and made a innocent face. Pouting she said

"I'm hungry. You know I didn't even eat anything this morning."

"Aww my baby. Still in fifth standard right?"
Her sister asked and Sameera grinned.

"Fifth? A fifth class student has more brain than her. She's in kindergarten."

"Oh come on! I'm a big girl!"
Sameera whined and his brother mimicked her.

"Amma! I'm hungry."
Sameera again whined and her mother led her in.
But she didn't forget that someone was still standing on the main door.

Shrithik watched as her pigtail flicked to the other side as she turned around and gestured him to follow her. And he also didn't miss that how his feet took him to her room involuntary.

Her room was heaven. The walls were dark blue and the whole floor was covered with a fluffy fur rug.

The fairy lights provided a dim soothing light and Shrithik couldn't help but throw himself on her double spring multi purpose matress' big bed.

"Oh sweetheart. I'll not leave this room ever. It's so comfy here. Oh man!!!!! I love this."

He squealed and Sameera laughed. Laughing she took off her hoodie. It was cold in the train. Afterall it was the starting of November.

Then she started unbuttoning her shirt and Shrithik gaped.
Was she crazy? She was stripping in front of him. And gosh! She was beautiful. But........she still was giving him a show.

"S-sweetheart?"
He asked and Sameera chuckled. Then letting her shirt fall she turned and stood directly in front of him.

Shrithik then groaned and released a relieved sigh. She was wearing a thin tshirt inside that shirt.

"Don't worry my dear old man. I'm not gonna strip in front of you. Now I'm going to bath. Immediately after me you also go. I'll let the geyser be switched on."
She smiled and entered the bathroom.

Leaving Shrithik alone and very comfortable in her bed. He sighed and let himself fall on her bed and immediately felt like heaven. He then turned his head to the side to find a really, really soft looking furry baby blue blanket.

That blanket literally seduced him. And he quickly unfolded it and covered himself with it and let out a satisfied sigh.

"Man! How does she have such good things. It's so comfy......."

He trailed off sleepily.

When Sameera got out of the bathroom, freshly bathed, she saw already in a deep slumber.

He was sleeping with his hands tucked beneath his head and his legs folded. His body was in 'z' shape and she couldn't help but smile when she heard his soft snores.

And she couldn't find her heart to wake him up so she switched off the geyser and kissed his forehead.

He smiled softly in his sleep and she exited the room. Switching off the fairy lights.

As her house was a building of two seperate houses on each other, her room was on the house on the first floor. Her sister had her coaching class buisness in the rest of the house.

Sameera ran down the stairs extremely hungry.

"Mumma! I am hungry!"
She entered the kitchen speaking loudly and her brother tsked.

"Don't shout. We'll become deaf."

"Oh really?"
Sameera asked and her father's voice came from out of the house.

"Has my tiger arrived?"

Sameera grinned and turned around and then ran and hugged her father's big frame.

"Papa! I'm back."

Her father laughed and hugged her tighter.

"What has she done that she's getting a special treatment?"

Her brother retorted and Sameera smiled smugly.

"Birth. I'm born, no? That itself is a big thing."

Her brother rolled his eyes and his father laughed.

"You've started."

She grinned and her mother announced that the food was ready.

Everyone sat on the dining table and ate the delicious food while Sameera told her funny stories.

It was when they were all done and Sameera went to her room to find Shrithik still sleeping.

Sameera smiled at him and he licked his lips in his sleep.
Gosh! He was cute.

Sameera turned away with the tip of her ears, pink.
She herself was feeling sleepy so she also slipped inside the big blanket and to her surprise Shrithik slipped his arm under her head and hugged her from back.

"I was waiting for you. I'm soooooooo sleepy."
He spoke sleepily and Sameera smiled.

"Go to sleep you dork."
But instead of any reply she heard his soft snores.

She pressed her hot and red face in the blanket. She was having that really and really weird feeling in her stomach. Is she felt zoo before, now was a whole sanctuary.

She turned around to get a look at his face. Shrithik frowned in his sleep when he felt her moving. But that frown disappeared once Sameera started patting his head rythemically.

Slowly her hand slipped down to his face. Using her index finger she grazed his face. From his forehead to his nose, to his cheeks to his ears, from his nose to his lips.

For some reason her heart felt heavy. Looking at his peaceful, innocent face her mind filled with how unfair life was to him. She felt crying for him. Her heart, soul and her whole self was feeling crying. For him.

She then felt his leg wrap around her like a baby and she couldn't help but smile.

Life was unfair to him so what? That unfair life only made him meet her. Made him love her. Made her love him. That unfair life only made him meet someone who loved him and only him.

How it happened, she doesn't know. But now Shrithik was hugging her chest, Sameera was half propped up with her head supported by the pillow and her hand was slowly patting his head.

"You aal sho comfoltable."

He whispered and Sameera kissed his head, knowing well that he was still asleep.

_______________________________

She woke up two hours later, to find him still clinging to her.

She furrowed his eyebrows. He was sleeping unusually more today.

"Old man?"

She asked softly but he didn't reply.

"Old man? It's time to eat, old man."
She said and pushed him away. He groaned and sat with his eyes close. His face was tired. Unusually tired.

"Is something wrong baby? You are looking tired."

He nodded slowly and grinned.
"I really start feeling like a baby when you call me one."

"Okay my baby boi. But tell me, why are you looking so tired."

He sighed and ran his hand on his face.

"Yeah. I told you that I feel like my brain bursting when I use......er some big powers. And today I used it two times. My whole nerves are feeling like they'll burst any moment. Oh man! Admitting it making me feel it more."

He said and feel on the bed. His toes were curled and his fingers were in a tight fist.

"You told me that you don't feel anything so extreme when you are with me."

"Yeah I did. Bu-"
He couldn't complete his sentence as she was now on top of him. Kissing him sweetly.

As shocking it was to him, it was the truth that his pain disappeared the moment she touched him.
That was why he was clinging to her.

"One day, you'll be giving a speech in front of a big crowd and I am going to kiss you the same. Interrupting you. Taking my sweet revenge for this day."

Shrithik said when she left him and she laughed lightly.

"Your sweet revenge is in my bucket list. Do you know that?"
