"Innaya."
I heard him, again. This time from very close. So close that I thought he was actually whispering in my ears. I could feel the warm breath caressing skin of my face. I could feel the warm cocoon of safety around me that I had started to feel only in his company. Slowly, I realized the presence behind me or rather just next to me. It was strong.
The pillow I was resting against didn't feel soft, rather it felt firm and strong. Just then my eyes fell upon arms around me, one around my shoulders and one draped across my midsection. The arms were too familiar to ignore and same was the case with their owner. Slowly, I inched my hand closer to grasp the right hand across my stomach.
I wanted but hold it to confirm. But then, what if it wasn't what I was thinking? I looked ahead to see Arjun's and Amma's worried face. However, I noticed how their eyes kept flickering between me and space behind me. I turned my head to my right.
