Author’s POV

“ please…tell me….he will be fine……he needs to be fine……please….tell me….he’s okay” cried jenny burying her face deep into the chest of Ryan who was trying to control her. He held her securely in his arms because she was too weak to even stand on her feet.

Tears flowing through her cheeks non stop, wetting his shirt while she started snivel fighting with her fear of losing the only man she has as a family.

She was standing outside the ICU where her dad had been admitted. Nurse and doctors were rushing inside discussing in the medical language that she couldn’t understand even a bit but seeing their sincerity and efforts all she can think about is how critical her dad must be right now that the group of doctors scurried inside.

Mr. Oberoi was found unconscious this morning when the caretaker tried to wake him for the morning meditation and medicine like always. After trying for a few times the poor nurse had no choice but to call for an ambulance and inform Jen

    Jenny’s POV I wish there was nothing like the feeling of losing someone. There is no word that can do justice to the definition of that hollow feeling inside me. There is no language in which I can explain the grief I'm going through. The grief, It just snatched everything away. Everything came crashing down in front of my eyes. No hopes. No beliefs. No courage to even pick up a fallen pen. Everything reminds me of him and those times when he was alive. It’s been a month since my dad lived his last day on the earth before leaving. I was so broken and crying weakly that those memories of saying goodbye to him have become easy for me. I wasn’t in my senses, and couldn’t remember much about that day because all that I know is, my father is no more. I lost him, and I still can’t believe this. How can God be so cruel that he snatched the only person I had ? If he wanted to make me suffer then he could have taken my life instead of my father’s. Why him ? The doctors said it wa

    Jenny's POV Days become weeks and weeks become months, the frequent random crying did stop and now I'm at a point where even if I want to cry, tears just won’t come, because there isn’t any left. But i realised that grief of losing someone i loved can be intense like physical pain. I literally felt my throat hurting, aching and heart tearing into two. Those moments were the ones where I cried because I didn't know what else to do. Every day felt the same, the routine of recalling about dad and then crying because I couldn't stop thinking about him knowing that he doesn’t exist in this world anymore. I also realised my pride of not wanting to cry so much in front of others and the notion that I needed to be strong for my dad made me suppress a lot of the feelings which made it worse. Then there was guilt and a lot of what if I did this or that, would we have a different and he would have lived? I miss him, so much that if there’s any way to get him back i would. If there’s e

    Three months back, Ryan’s POV She is in her worst situation ever, and I'm not able to see her like this. I know losing her father is a big deal for her but the way she keeps neglecting herself these past months is scaring me. She isn’t sleeping properly, she skips her meals, and constantly cries. Her health is getting worse and she doesn’t seem to care for any of these now. I tried distracting her with something else but nothing works when she herself doesn’t want to get out of the grief she is right now. Day by day she is turning weak, and lean. That puts me into worry. I don’t know if i can ever see her the way she used to be. Because nowadays, she doesn’t even utter a word. If anyone asks something to her, she will either nod or shake or maintain her silence. Mostly she would stare at empty walls or would spend her time looking out of the window in her room. Making her step down for dinner or lunch would be one hell of a job, she was falling into the loneliness that star

    (Three months ago) Ryan’s POV I am obsessed with the sunset. I keep observing the colours , shades and patterns of sky and clouds and how everyday it is different. The clouds make the sunset look more pretty. I believe every sunset and sunrise needs a sky to show up and few fluffy clouds to peep out. Setting of the sun shows how the end of the journey can be so beautiful . Sunset makes me feel beautiful and fills me up with positivity . When I watch sunset it feels like everything paused for a moment and colours are flying in the sky just to paint the world. Every day the sun rises, crosses the sky and sets. And it does it again and again and again like the perpetually repeating cycle of events in a day that people follow and tend to complete as if they have got a task to finish before the deadline. Sunsets are one of the few things in life that is guaranteed and subconsciously the certainty and guarantee is extremely soothing to the soul, just like her. No matter how bad a

    Author’s POV “ C’mon, accept your loss “ exclaimed Maya as she glared at Sam who wasn’t ready to accept the fact that Maya won the bet. “ you cheated , otherwise “ he dragged the last word looking around finding a way to distract her from the over prodigiousness of her talent of predicting people's next moves. “ Did you realise how cheap and lame you have been from the past ten minutes ?” shooting daggers at him Maya smacked him on the back of his head, for which he just smiled and nodded off.

Disappointment covered her face as her eyes didn’t find the sight she always wants to look at. Taking off her heels she sighed as his shoes weren't on the rack which means he is not back yet.

For the last few days she hasn't been getting enough sleep and rest because of the rush between the office and Jenny’s home.

    Author’s POV “ You planned all these ? “ asked Jenny, being surprised by the lighting and decoration around, which made the place seem more beautiful than it was already. “ mmm…..yep “ he smiled looking at her sparkling eyes that travelled all around the room.

    Author’s POV Asher and Maya sat together talking, enjoying each other's company much more than the mostly-forgotten movie they'd picked playing on her laptop for the weekend, the streaming-site flick downgraded to background noise for the flirtatious pair's constant conversations; they'd both downed a few beers each, the alcohol loosening their lips and helping put them at ease. Kissing occasionally interrupted their words, but it was a welcome interruption, both of them enjoying every moment of each other's company. No place else either of them would rather be. "Take, take off your shirt," she panted, "I need to see that amazing body of yours!" Eager to comply, enjoying this take-control side of her, Asher slipped his arms to the bottom of his shirt, detaching himself from her chest. As swiftly as he could he pulled it from his torso and tossed it across the room, spreading his arms and flexing slightly for his girlfriend's pleasure; if there was one thing Asher was confident about

    Author’s POV "Ohhhh..." Jenny moaned as she felt her vagina stretch open for him. After sorting out their small misunderstanding Ryan and Jenny spend some hours in bed, cuddling and talking about random stuff. They didn’t realise the passing time while being with each other and when they did it was already afternoon, and none of them had a bath yet since they woke up late and hungry that their focus went on food later on their sudden conflits which was sorted out lately. Feeling lazy to do anything they decided to spend the day in a room and order something from outside to eat and just chill watching any random movies. As Jenny got up and dragged herself to shower, Ryan uncontrollably followed her and offered her his idea of showering together. Though he promised her that it’s going to be only to shower together, nothing else but that yet Jenny knew where it would lead them hence she agreed. Within a few minutes of standing naked under the shower they were already doing what the

    Ryan’s POV “ Jenny, I'm not going to do that….please stop pestering me. “ I had enough and couldn’t bear it anymore when Jenny kept pestering me for something I don't want to do or, much likely, I'm not capable of doing. It’s been more than six months now since we sorted out our conflicts and began to live together. I had been doing good since then, and I figured out why. Because from the moment I shared my traumatic experiences with her I did feel the lightness in my chest as the burden of keeping everything inside me faded away. She grasped the depth of hurt and mental anguish I felt. And soon, she and I took slow but steady steps towards healing. I can;t deny that she stood strong in every path i chose to walk on. She was just beside me, guiding me, listening to me and making me feel valued and worthy. Talking to her almost felt like talking to myself because she never showed any discomfort or judging look which I was afraid to get from people. She felt like me, more of me

After finishing their quick morning session Ryan took a bath while Jenny was still recollecting her energy by sleeping for a little long. By the time Ryan was done changing he came out and woke her up before going downstairs to prepare coffee for both of them. Jenny took a long-soul-soothing warm bath as she was sore and thanks to her husband though. As she came downstairs wearing his t-shirt that hopefully reached till her mid thighs. One thing they love about spending their time in his penthouse is - they can literally roam around in minimal c

    Author’s POV When Jenny woke up, it was not by any choice of her own. While the sunshine on her face was warm and pleasant, the clock showed that it was not even 7:00, and she'd had a late night. She took a deep breath and wriggled herself out from under Ryan's arm, leaning off the bed just enough to reach the blinds and block out the sunlight. As Jenny moved herself to this position, the sheet fell away from her body ever so slightly, and she realised she hadn't put anything on after she and Ryan had finished off last night. They'd simply fallen asleep in each other's arms afterwards, with no energy left in their bodies.The fact that Jenny was naked was of no real significance to her, except that it reminded her that Ryan was naked under the sheet as well. As much as Jenny wished that she could go back to sleep, she knew she was up for good now, thanks to the sun in her eyes and the knowledge that Ryan's body was all hers if she just pulled away the thin sheet lying on top of hi

    Auhor's POV Ryan blinked and hugged her to his naked chest, taking hold of the back of her shirt and tugging it out of her jeans. "We're not equal yet, are we?" he said. "I want to see my favourites in you ." He meant her soft, spongy and perfectly round mounds that he never gets enough of doing things. She nodded against his shoulder and pulled back, still sitting in his lap, she ran her fingers down the hem, losing buttons as she went, until she at last shrugged her shirt off to the floor behind. "Let me," he said, laying his hands on her hips, he traced all the way up her thin body, fingers dipping beneath the band of her bra, momentarily holding her two warm, soft mounds before bringing the elastic fabric further up and over her head, helped as she raised her arms to slip it off. Not massive, no, but even though she fidgeted as he looked, he felt he had to burn this sight into his memory. Smooth, pale skin, goosebumps spreading in the cool air, topped with taut, pink nipple
