ch-8 my saviour

That night I sat at one place and kept crying.

But I had decided that I will not stay here for long, and thinking of going to Reet's house and taking some money from there, I took a bath and changed and went out towards the bus stand.

After coming from that house, travelling by bus was quite common for me.

Reet's house was at a short distance from there and I had some money in my pocket that day, so I reached her house easily.

Reet was very happy to see me at her home and at the same time she was worried about me.

Reet came to know whatever happened in the hostel. She also came to the hostel to meet me that day but by then I had left from there.

Before I could say anything, Reet gave me money and said, "You will need this, keep it!"

I kept looking at her face.

She then said, "Don't misunderstand me! I know everything about you and also that you must not have eaten anything since yesterday. So I am giving you this money for that only".

As soon as she said this, I hugged Reet. Even today Reet understands everything without me saying anything.

Reet silenced me. There were tears in her eyes too.

She further said, "I feel like stopping you right here!" When Reet said this,

I looked at her and she said, "But I know you, you will take this as a favour. There is no place for favours in our friendship. You can come to me whenever you feel like".

After that, we hugged each other for a long time. Then I said bye to Reet and came out.

I was walking on the road in my own trance and collided with someone and fell down. My leg got hurt due to the fall.

That man did not even try to lift me up and went away from there without saying sorry. I somehow went to the side of the road and sat down taking support of the wall.

Meanwhile it started raining. I let all my sorrow and pain flow away with the rain and started crying.

After 5 minutes, the rain suddenly stopped. I looked up and saw that someone was holding an umbrella over me.

I slowly looked towards that person and saw someone standing in a black suit. His face was not clearly visible due to tears.

But finding someone like that near me, I don't know what happened that my tears did not stop and I started crying again.

That person stood there holding the umbrella. He did not complain. My heart was a little lighter now because of crying for a long time, so I looked towards that man but now because of crying more.

whatever little was visible also disappeared. So I rubbed my eyes and looked in that direction again.

Aditya Sir was standing in front of me and said

"Why do you always meet me in such a condition?"

I could not say anything and started crying again, Sir always comes to save me in such a condition.

I thought in my mind, after crying for a while, Sir handed me the umbrella and took me in his arms and took me towards the car and the car went straight towards his house.

I don't know whether it was because of crying too much or because of the tiredness of whatever had happened.

I fell asleep on the way. I don't know for how long I slept. When I woke up, we were outside his house.

The car was closed, looking at which it was clear that it had been a long time since we reached there. Still Sir did not wake me up. When my eyes met Sir's, Sir said

"Come inside"

"Hmmm"

After saying this I came inside the house. Inside, Sir's nanny gave me a towel and some clothes and asked me to change after taking a bath.

I went straight to the bathroom, took a bath, changed and came out.

In the meantime, she had prepared the food and gestured me to come to the table and fed me with great love.

Her nanny was very nice, she was taking care of me like her own daughter. Seeing her reminded me of my mother.

After having dinner, Sir said, "Now you can sleep, the room in which you stayed earlier is the same, you must remember"

"Yes" saying this I went straight to my room. After that we did not talk. I also went straight to sleep.

It was just 11 o'clock when suddenly lightning started flashing. Its light was so bright that I woke up.

Now I was having trouble sleeping again. So I picked up the pillow and blanket from my room and went towards the last room of that hall.

At midnight someone knocked on Aditya's room, Aditya opened the gate and Riya was standing there wrapped in a blanket, she went straight to Aditya's room without saying anything and started thinking about something.

Aditya could not understand anything, then there was a loud lightning outside and Riya shouted loudly and hugged Aditya.

After staying like this for some time, Riya separated from Aditya and said, "Sir I am scared to sleep alone, can I sleep in your room today, please sir!"

"Okay, you go and sleep on the bed." Seeing Riya in such a state, even Aditya could not refuse her.

And he agreed to make her sleep on his bed. Adi had thought that he would sleep on the sofa in front.

He would stay near Riya, so that she could sleep comfortably.

When Aditya Sir said this, I stared at him and he said, "I am not going to do anything like that, you sleep on the bed and I will sleep here on the sofa".

After saying this, a smile came on Sir's face. Hearing this, my cheeks turned red for a moment.

Riya, you are crazy! Sir was just telling you in the name of humanity and I don't know what you think. I took a sigh of relief.

"Hmm" I went straight to the bed and slept and Sir lay down on the sofa. At midnight, Aditya heard someone crying.

When he looked around, Riya was crying in her sleep.

He went to her and stroked Riya's head lovingly and said, "Everything is fine, you are not alone now, I am always with you and I will never leave you, my angel!"

The last line was softly spoken by Adi which Riya did not hear.

Riya only heard the rest of the line. Hearing this, Riya became silent and a very cute smile came on her face, and she slept like that.

Aditya also went to his place and slept.

Today, after a long time, Riya had a peaceful sleep. For the first time in so many years, Riya did not have any nightmare.

Today she was sleeping as if she had come to the safest place in this world.😊
