CHAPTER 13 : Running

Rudransh

It was the first time there was someone present in this room of mine. Usually, I don't allow people to enter because I love my privacy. Seeing her almost falling from the bed while dozing off, it made me realize that now I have to share this room with someone for the rest of my life.

I still don't have those die-hard love feelings and will never have them, but it doesn't change the fact that she came here just for me, with me and for me. She is my responsibility, a duty, and from now onwards I will make sure to fulfill it.

I sighed, running a hand through my hair, feeling exhaustion settle in my bones. But as my gaze fell on her, my exhaustion turned into something else.

She was half-asleep, swaying slightly, her body tilting dangerously close to the edge of the bed. Her heavy bridal lehenga pooled around her like molten gold, her jewelry catching the dim light, making her look ethereal.
