Just when Devin got up to leave for the citadel hotel, a hand stretched out gripping the edge of his shirt tightly.
"Don't leave me." Leena pleaded in a whisper. She rapidly unfastened her eyes and reached for his hand when she realized she lost the affection and warmth of her comforter. The word clinginess was not in her dictionary but the longing to have him by her side has intensified today.

"I do face yoga every day, idiot. How could I get frown lines?" Leena yelled snatching his mobile to check the lines on her face. Liar! I don't even see one.
