Author's POV:

She was in a trance...shaking her head as her brain was blurred and rubbing her eyes continuously unable to clear down what exactly her brain and eyes were capturing from those mere papers

All that happened in a moment was first surprise then a brief gaze on those papers and at last, she smiled wide like a bright sun in the early morning

The papers stated she got admission to a reputed college for Bsc Mathematics

She was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a moment...

She was so happy that she would fly to the sky that scream her happiness to the cruel world who mocked her poverty

Her happiness had no bounds...

She felt a kind of unexplainable and indescribable joy in her heart...

Her heart turned warm and eyes pricked hot...

Tears rolled down her cheeks silently and effortlessly...

On the other side getting no reaction from her Arjun opened his tired eyes and found her holding the papers to her chest and head hung down...

He was confused...

Is she not happy??

He slowly walked to her...

"Kay zal??" (What happened)

His voice was as soft and delicate as a newborn baby's first innocent smile

She looked up...

With misty eyes, she saw a tall figure standing in front of her...

His deep oceanic orbs speaking the depths of his concern and care urged her heart to ooze more...

He arched his brow for which she just shook her head a little left and right and his innocent wife who was found weeping quietly when looked into his caring eyes tears suddenly flowed like rain...

She did not know what she was doing as if her mind had lost the ability to think and she just followed her heart and set the paper fall on the floor and let herself lean until she found solace in his embrace...

And the moment her head touched his chest his whole body went all numb...

Not only a blank mind but also his heart seems to be empty...

The scars of his past were not visible on his body as they were more for his soul...that didn't let him follow the voice of the small part of his heart...

While she innocently kept weeping on his chest he stood still maintaining the aura of the Beast...

There was no reaction for a long time...

Her fisted hands landed on his chest on either side of her face as a painful sob escaped her lips...

He felt a burst of pain in his heart which made him unable to see a cry baby on his chest that his fists went on opening and closing nervously still not brave enough to let himself comfort her...

Embrace her to your heart

A voice from the bottom of his heart echoed in his ears...

He slowly lifted his right hand and let it land on the back of her head ever so softly that feeling his warm and gentle touch she burst into loud tears and curled up her face more into his chest while her hands hugged him tight...

He felt his heart was going to stop...

Only he knows how much courage it took for him to let his hand rest on her head and here she was making it difficult for him...

With her hands hooked back at his waist, she was embraced in his arms with her head tucked under his chin and cheek pressed against his chest letting her tears wet his shirt...

Although she didn't want to cry tears were oozing out of her heart helplessly

Her hot tears on his chest piercing deep into his heart made him shut his eyes tight and gulp a thick lump of unknown emotion...

His fingers made their way to her hair and began stroking gently asking her not to cry whereas his own heart was shedding invisible tears of the feeling that his heart had experienced for the first time ever...

His left hand that was still hung down was clenching into tight fists as if he was resisting something very hard...

Probably the new feeling rooting in his heart...

Another baby cry from her mouth and a fresh hot tear on his heart and that's it...

The hand that was stopping himself was now unknowingly wrapped around her shoulder holding her a little closer to him...

Two hearts felt warm...

The cold late night seemed to bring a spring blooming season to their broken souls...

They embraced that moment until the painful sobs turned to peaceful breaths on his chest...

Subconsciously she raised her head from his chest and looked into his eyes that were immersed with the same pain as hers and the moment seems to be static and eternal as their broken hearts were willing to find their solace...

At this moment their hearts are warm and moist like the calm waves of the sea that even if a stone is put in it, it will not set off a big wave...
