Karan went to his room nd found no one...He then realised that she is in washroom...He took a deep breath nd took a pillow nd blanket nd put them on couch..He himself laid down on the bed ..
She came out after sometime wearing Kritika's clothes ... He saw her immediately closed his eyes...She found him sleeping on the bed she looked down nd silently moved towards couch
Kritika's words came in his mind
"Wo biwi hai tumhari uska khayal rakhna tmhara farz hai"
He opened his eyes and called her "Hey listen" ...She looked at him
Karan:Tum kaho to mai couch pe so skta hu...I mean agr tmen uncomfortable feel hota hai wha so...
She looked at him surprised ... 1st time she felt someone's care for her .
Preeta(while looking down):Nahi I'm okay...!
Karan(with questionable look):Sure..?
She just hummed while looking down...He kept on staring her without her notice...She silently laid on couch nd covered herself with blanket without even looking at him
Karan(in mind):What a beauty...!
He smiled while looking at her but soon realized what he said...He hit his head nd turned his face to another side nd soon drifted to sleep
While she was still awaken remebering today's incidence...She got tears in her eyes
Preeta(in mind):Meri zindagi bhi ek dardnaak kahani se kam nhi hai...Bachpan me papa chor ke chale gaye jb hosh smbhala to maa chal bhasi...Lekn ek heera chor dia mere liye Sarla maa ko...lekn aj tak mene kia dia unko...Kia thi mai unke liye...Ek bhoj...Ek majboori....Ek zimmedari....Jiske liye unhone aansu ki nadian bahaye...R badle me mene kya dia unhen apne aansu bs...
She closed her eyes letting the tears to flow....She put hand on her mouth to control herself
....
