Embarrassing

Tal hugged back Regan and tried hard not to cry, but still it was so hard, And noticing that she started crying Regan rubbed her back, but that just made things worse as she ended up crying hard. she don't know whether it was because of Regan trying to comfort her or her emotional burst out but it was so embarrassing for her...

'Ahh that was so embarrassing!! oh my god! but the most embarrassing thing is my snot, seriously what am I going to do now. I mean I can't use tissues when I am hugging Regan, I can probably blow it on his shirt.. neither can I break the hug to wipe my nose. That's why I hate crying.' Tal's internal battled finished as she finally sniffled hard trying to control her snot but that pain was so hard as if her head split into thousand pieces.

Regan finally broke the hug and handed her tissues, trying hard to control his laugh, while Tal pouted looking at him with her accusing eyes. That was so cute for Regan that he kissed Tal on her forehead and hugged her again. But Tal didn't hug him and tightly hold his shirt as she asked "Regan did my family know about this?"

"Yeah they're on their way but I am scared they would breakdown looking at your state" Reagan said pointing out the purple bruises on Tal's body with a broken voice. Tal smiled sadly at him, knowing that now everyone would be so careful that they would be even afraid to speak casually.

But to her suprise her family wasn't crying this time, they were sure sad but this time instead of crying and avoiding the topic as it was Taboo, they hugged Tal and said that it's fine and comforted her.

Tal cried again while hugging Ruchi and after relaxing her nerves, she slept in Anthea's lap while Anthea was combing her hair.

After Tal was sleeping peacefully everyone came outside.
