chapter 4

It was wonderful that even in her dreams, he was present. Night had started to fall. Still immersed in her unending thoughts, she looked at the sky through the unlatched window.Dark and gray clouds overcast the sky making it pitch-black. The atmosphere was quite gloomy outside. The blowing of cold wind sent chills down the spine.A little bit of light was cast by the hidden moon through the clouds. It indicated the approach of a big storm. She blinked her eyes and wrapped her hands around her body. " Ahem .... Ahem ! " , Nishith cleared his throat ." Hellooo ! Where are you lost? " , Nishith waved his hand infront of her eyes when he realised that She was lost somewhere." Ohh ! You came ... " , Samaira jerked backwards by hearing the sudden voice of Nishith as her thoughts took a temporary halt." Yes... I am standing before you from last five minutes. " , He ended by drawing the curtains to stop the cold air coming in." Oops ! Sorry. Actually I couldn't realise. " , Samaira uttered by scratching her chin." It's fine. Serve the dinner soon. I am hungry. " , He said as he checked the time on the wall clock." Yeah ... Sure. Be seated. I am serving the dinner. " , She said while arranging the plates on the table.Nishith pulled out a chair and sat at the table. Samaira served two plates and she too occupied her seat facing opposite to him. Both of them had their eyes fixed on the plate but none of them was eating. There was complete silence at the dinning  table. Neither of them spoke. They were lost in some unknown thoughts.Nishith sat with a rigid posture that depicted his state of mind. Both of them were busy in resolving the conflict going on in their minds. The growing darkness of the sky reflected their internal struggles.A heavy gush of wind blew into the dinning hall causing goosebumps. Both of them looked up from their plates and their eyes met. They kept staring at each other for few moments.To be continued in next part.Stay tuned.
