Noor stood two steps away from Arsh, "I…" She gulped her saliva, to wet her throat, and then she spoke, pointing behind her, at the door, "I didn't mean to listen…" She paused, recalling that Arsh wouldn't blame her for it, "I came to say bye." Her feeble voice sounded like she was going to cry at a small trigger.
Arsh didn't want to send her home in this state so he needed to rest her thoughts that were scaring her. Again starting from zero would be harder.
He turned behind and went to the nightstand. Grabbing his water bottle, he unscrewed the cap as he reached her, "Drink some water."
Instead of giving her the bottle, he went closer and helped her drink. Noor didn't back away, instead, she continued to stare at him, holding the corner of the bottle while drinking. She tore her gaze away for a second or two before she stared back at him after drinking water.
