"Not again Sweety," I said and walked into the kitchen. Even though I was a bit far away from them, I could hear the murmur from the living room as Draco and Claire are trying to convince her. Oh, God! They really spoiled her a lot.

At last, we enjoyed our dinner and bid our goodbyes. "I'm going to miss you." Claire wiped her tears and hugged me once again.


"Are you not going to miss me?" Sweety asked pouting her lips.

"Of Couse I do." She kissed her cheeks.

"Ewww!! Don't do this." She shoved her face and wiped her cheeks. We all smiled looking at her and they left my apartment sharp at 11 pm.


As usual, I read Sweety her bedtime story and she fell asleep within a fine minute. I laid her on the bed and sat beside her as very hard to catch sleep. 'What is he doing now?' the question was still playing onto my mind like an FM radio giving me an endless headache.

Maybe tomorrow morning --- shit. Tomorrow we have a client holiday. So that means I can't see him tomorrow too. I slumped my shoulders in defeat and forced my eyes shut to get sleep.

"Bye." We both waved our hands when the school bus was slowly moving out of my sight. After that, I went back to my apartment and did some random things to get time pass, yet, I have plenty of time.

So, I grabbed one of the books from the self and started to read. I busied myself almost two hours on the book and I didn't get enough of it. I want to know when the male protagonist is going to propose to her girl.

Suddenly, the doorbell in my apartment rang aggressively as someone is doing this deliberately.

Yeah! It happens during weekends as this is one of the lists of children's games who consider this as an entertainment and hid behind the nearby places once I open the door.

But the thing is different, cause, today is Thursday and all the kids have gone to school. Then who is doing this? For a second, I was hesitant to open the door but again the doorbell rang aggressively making my ear goes deaf.

I walked towards the front door and looked outside through the peephole. "Shhhuu!" I sighed in relief when I saw Kayish is standing outside.

My heart jolt with happiness knowing he is fine. Without wasting any second, I opened the door widely for him to enter but he takes me off guard by hugging me tightly like there is no tomorrow.

"I love you Riya." He whispered, his voice was barely audible. He wrapped his hands around my waist possessively as someone came here to snatch me away from him, and buried his face on the crook of my neck.

"Kayish, you are crushing me." I wiggled from his grip. What happened to him. Why is he behaving like this out of blue?

"I love you so much, Riya. Forgive me for my sin. I'm not worth it for you." He sobbed making me furrow my eyebrows. What does he really mean?

"Find a right M-man a-and live a happy life." He released me from his firm grip. His eyes held so much pain, but the pain seems different.

I looked at him in disbelief like he has grown with two heads. What nonsense he is talking? Here, I'm thinking about giving him a chance, but he seems already gave up. Am I not worth a fight?

I bit my lips to hide the sob that threatening to come out. Feeling ashamed of him, I averted my gaze from him and gulped down the lump which formed in my throat.

'Find another man?' How easily he said those words. If that's what I want, I would have found the right one a year ago. But that's not what I wanted. I can't give my heart to another person, it's better to live single for my entire life.

If he decides to give up that early then why the hell did he steal my heart after I healed from my misery? Once again he proved to me how cheap he is.

"Tell our daughter that I love h-her." His breath became uneven and his next movements made me froze on my spot as he started to cough a huge amount of blood that left me utter shock.

"I love you." Once again he whispered before falling down the floor.

"K-Kayish." My body trembled when my eyes spotted the pool of blood on his back, it looked like someone stabbed him on his back or---

"Oh, God!! Kayish." I came out of my spell and placed his head on my lap.

"Look at me." I shook his shoulder.

"I miss you." He gave me a weak smile.

"No, No. Please don't leave me, Kayish. I love you-- I love you so much!!" I cried.

"I'm sorry my love." was the last word I heard before he closes his eyes.

"Nooooo!!!" I shook his body but no response. I pressed my hands together on his chest trying to bring his breath back but there is no heartbeat, his body went pale like a ghost.

"You can't leave me like thisss!!!" I cried out of agony and hit him harder on his chest but it all went vain, he died.

"Kayishhhhh!!!" I screamed out of my lungs.

I jerked from the couch where I fell asleep without my knowledge and the book, I was holding in my hand landed on the floor three feet away from me. For a second everything went blank.

The heartbeat in my rib cage raised heavily as it had attended a 10 km marathon. Oh god!! It was a horrible dream that I never ever had in my entire life neither I wished.

How awful that was!!!

I stared at the floor where he had laid in the pool of his own blood in my dream with so much emotion flooding through my heart.
