Zoya and Rudra were getting engaged the next day, so he thought Nandini might have gone there. But it couldn’t stop him from checking his phone from time to time, hoping she might call or text him like other days. “What happened to her today? Did she take my words seriously last night?

Are you two home?” I heard mom’s voice as she returned home from work. “We’re in the kitchen, mom.” I replied, making Manik move away from me as he was hugging me from behind.

An Illicit Affair 44. A Warm Morning
NEXT MORNINGI stirred as the morning sun rays hit my face. I tried hiding my face in my pillow and going back to my peaceful slumber. But I found it becoming harder and harder to do. I was feeling unusually cold as the breeze passed through me.I felt I was sleeping without a blanket, to be more precise naked and that's when it hit me. Last night flashed behind my closed eyes and the smile curved in the corner of my lips like always.My hand began reaching the other side of my bed in order to spot Manik so that I could get into his arms and grab some more sleep which seemed almost impossible without him. I frowned before opening my eyes because my hand didn’t touch any skin or abs which means the place beside me was empty.
