After crying for a while longer Nishith regained his composure a little. He sniffled and said "I.."
Nilambori understood that he was trying to apologise so she raised her and and stopped him. "It's raining heavily outside and the forecast says a thunderstorm is approaching. You'll have to stay here tonight."
Nishith got up and stared out of the window. "Then I'll have to trouble you to lend me your sofa."
Nilambori nodded and went to her room.
Nishith gazed out of the window. His eyes followed the drops rolling down the window. He frowned and flinched when there was a sudden flash of lightning or loud roaring of the clouds.
Feeling parched he got up to drink some water when he suddenly felt dizzy. In a hurry to steady himself, he knocked off a cup.
'clank! Trrr'
The cup spun a few times before coming to a stop.
"Argh" Nishith scowled at the cup for making such a loud noise and looked at the door to Nilambori's room to see if it woke her up. Seeing nobody he sighed in relief and bent to pick the cup up.
"Tsss" he felt his head spin again. This time he also felt his body becoming hot. He loosened the collar of the bathrobe. He still felt hot rather even hotter.
'What's happening? It's raining so heavily outside yet I'm sweating like crazy. And... this uncomfortable feeling. Ugh.' He went towards the sofa on shaky legs and slumped down. The warm feeling still did not subside. He leaned back and loosened his bathrobe a little more. Even facing the fan with his chest exposed did not cool him down. He also felt dizzier. And that uncomfortable feeling rose again this time with more intensity. He slipped his hand underneath his bathrobe and rubbed his nape and shoulders.
'What is happening to me?' Nishith suddenly felt like hugging someone even kissing them. 'Argh. No. No no what am I thinking? Why am I...' he could not complete his thoughts when he felt his mind clouding with such thoughts again. His breathing increased. All he wished was for someone to caress him. Hig him. He felt desperate to be closer to someone.
Nishith shook his head. "What's going on? Why... am I feeling like this? Ah.." he loosened his bathrobe again. Now one of his shoulders was exposed. He bit his lips and threw his head back against the sofa breathing heavily.
Suddenly his eyes widened. Still panting he looked down to see that he had an erection. Nishith gasped. His face flushed as he covered his mouth with the back of his. "Wha.. " his vision became hazy as his eyes teared up. He clutched the edge of the sofa with his other and kept panting.
Inside the room.
Nilambori changed out of her suit and wore a top and full pants. She laid on her bed resting her back against the headrest with the book in her hand. Her long stick was now retracted into a short stump about the size of her palm and tucked in the belt of her pants.
Her long beautiful fingers slid over the pages reading the Braille. Her eyes although staring at the book did not move along with her fingers and was fixated at one place. Sometimes her brows furrowed, sometimes her lips curled upwards at other times she raised her eyebrows amused at the surprising turns in the novel.
As she read she suddenly thought of something and closed the book placing a book mark. She took out her folded stick, pressed a button on it which made her purple friend regain her original size and went out of the room.
Even though she held the stick in hand she did not fumble it around feeling for objects and just walked steadily holding it aside.
In the living room.
Nishith's mind was in a mess when he heard a low yet firm voice.
"Mr Dey, are you alright?"
Nishith opened his eyes and saw Nilambori standing before him with her brows slightly creased. He was about to reply when he felt like a light shock passing through his body.
"Ah," he arched his back and gasped.
Nilambori felt that something was not right with Nishith. She stood there for a few seconds then retracted her stick and tucked it back in her belt. She then walked a little closer and picked Nishith up in her arms.
Nishith was startled by her sudden action and requested her to put him down but Nilambori said "You need to lie down somewhere comfortable. You don't look well."
Nishith stared at her handsome face in a daze. 'Her cheek looks so inviting. Shall I give it a kiss?' He inches closer to her face but catches himself midway. He shook his head vigorously to shake off those thoughts.
Nilambori carried him to her room and laid him down. Nishith felt his body grow hotter by the second especially when he was so close to Nilambori. When she was about to put him on the bed, for a second he did not want to let go of her and wanted to keep clinging to her like that. After she laid him down he kept hugging her neck for a few seconds and then abruptly let go realising his actions.
He averted his eyes feeling shy when he blushed harder seeing something. He hurriedly covered his crotch and looked away.
Nishith heard Nilambori speaking to someone over the phone.
When she came back she was holding a wet towel in hand.
"You have to wipe your body with this to cool it off. It's not possible to go to the hospital or call a doctor in this weather. But a doctor will be called once the weather becomes a little better. Till then please bear with it." Nilambori put the towel forward.
Nishith wiped his body a few times and felt somewhat better. Nilambori sat on a chair by the bed and continued reading.
After a while, Nishith started sweating and panting again. Hearing him breathe so heavily Nilambori came near him and bent forward to check his temperature. Nishith held her palm and pressed it against his cheek. He leaned forward and put his hand on her shoulder. Tilting his head up he looked at her with teary eyes and a flushed face.
"Miss Saha... please... help me." He gulped and looked at her with pleading eyes.
Nilambori stayed silent for a while and then said " You have been drugged."
Nishith wrapped his arms around her neck and said "It itches. So uncomfortable. Please help me"
"Do you know what you're doing?" Nilambori placed her hand on the hook of his arms and tried to bring him to his senses.
Nishith shook his head "I don't know. I don't want to know. I just want to get rid of this feeling. I can't bear it anymore." He stared at her face intently and said "Please, help me."
Nilambori was about to say something when Nishith all of a sudden pulled her closer and pressed his lips on hers. Nilambori was shocked. She knew he was not in a state to differentiate between what he wanted and what he was doing because of the effects of the drugs. She had texted someone about the situation and a message rang in her earpiece.
"The drug is too strong. There are only two options to alleviate the situation either take him to a hospital or let him fulfill his physical desire. Keeping him untreated will lead to health problems."
Nilambori was conflicted. She had had one-night stands with several people but they all consented to it in a conscious state of mind. But Nishith's case was different. Doing something to him in a drugged state will be taking advantage of his helplessness even if he is the one who asks for it.
