Author's POV:-

Since that day Agastya started coming from office late at night.He would come after she slept not wanting to have any conversation with her and goes to office in early morning.

It's another day and today Naina got up early. She wants to  apologise to him but didn't getting any perfect time for it. Today she promised herself that she will have a proper conversation with him.

She gets up and her smile falls out seeing him sleeping in his usual place. He has never touched her from that day not even accidentally.

He always has the habbit of sleeping cuddling her in sleep. Every night he would back hugged her pulling her close.

She is the one who asked him that she gets irritated with his touch ..or in her words It's SUFFOCATING ...and now when he started behaving like the way she wants, she is unknowingly missing his touch ..his pampering...

And now when he stop cuddling her ..she is missing him..missing his warmth.. missing his cuddle..missing how he surprised her with bouquet..missing his talks...

Everything..

How her words is now contradicting how she is feeling right now.She could feel a emptyiness in her chest...

Not able to control herself ,she goes near his body cuddling herself as she led her head on his chest and wrapped his arms around her waist.

'Please mujhse baat kar na Agastya...I am not able to bear your silence not anymore..i regret hurting you..' with that she slept in his arms for some more time.

Naina's POV:-

'Aj toh Sunday hai na ...toh aj kaha ja raha hain tu??' she says as he saw him getting ready in his shirt.. I asked bringing the breakfast into our room only.

Today I decided to surprise him with his favourite breakfast and also I will apologize to him for my actions.

'Kuch emergency aa gaya office mein ..isliye jana par raha hai' he says folding his shirt into half.

I know there is no such emergency he is talking about..he is just going out to ignore me.

I move towards him as I called him.

'Hmm bol' he says without looking at me..

'I am sorry' my lips wobbled.

'Hey why are you crying?? Aur tu sorry kyu bol Rahi hain..tune jo kaha sach ho toh kaha...' he says while leaving from there.

But this time I didn't let him go..again ignoring me..

'Agastya please...why are you ignoring me??' I cries hugging him.

His words is hurting me badly.But I know my words has hurt him double that time.

I could feel his body got stiff as I hugged him tightly.

Only if he could know how much his behaviour is affecting me..

'Mujhe khud nahi pata,mujhe kya ho gayi uss raat...kya mere dimaag mein Chad gayi ...but now I have regretting each and every word I said to you that night'. I said looking at him with tear filled eyes.

'Only when you started ignoring me ...I realised how badly I am missing you..I can't bear your silence Agastya...trust me..I am missing how you used to call numerous times in a day...I am missing how you used to hug me ..held my hand...back hug while sleeping..' I said as tears split through my eyes.

I continue, 'please forgive me Agastya...tu bas mujhse baat kar..rest I will make it up for you..please i promise' I cries helding his hand ..

His eyes too filled with tears. He  nods his head saying that he forgives her afterall he loved her too much.

He hand is itching him too hug her back ..wipe her teary eyes but hesitates to do it after all she doesn't like his touch...if she again....

'Please hug me na.. Please... I am missing your warmth..' she whispers hugging him tightly.

He hesitantingly touch his back..

'Abhi yahi kaafi hai...this time I will make it up for you...' she whispers putting her head right where his heart placed.

He didn't said anything in reply.

In one evening ,

Hours passed, and Agastya remained glued to his laptop, working diligently. I watched him from across the room, longing for his attention, missing the times we would just talk and laugh without a care.

“Such a workaholic,” I muttered, a small smile tugging at my lips as I prepared two mugs of coffee.

Walking over to him, I placed the coffee on the table and pouted. “Agastya, aur kitna baaki hain?” I whined playfully.

“Bas ek minute, Naina…” he mumbled, his fingers dancing over the keyboard.

Without waiting, I took his hand and dragged him to the balcony.

“Are kaha leke ja rahi ho?” he asked, a hint of surprise in his voice.

“Nowhere special. I just want to spend some time with you,” I said with a grin, guiding him to sit on the sofa outside.

I handed him his coffee and leaned in, watching his face as he took a sip.

“How is it? Tell me honestly,” I said, my voice full of excitement.

He smiled, taking another sip. “It’s perfect.”

I began talking about my day, laughing and giggling as I shared every little detail, hoping to bring us closer again. He was silently listening to me.

Slowly, I noticed Agastya’s gaze softening. His laughter matched mine, and I could feel the invisible walls between us crumbling as we connected over simple joys.

After a peaceful evening together, we finally went to bed.

I surprised him by scooting closer, slipping one arm around his waist, and resting my head on his shoulder.

“Ab sahi hai,” I whispered, my eyes drifting shut. I felt his gaze on me, and I opened my eyes, raising an eyebrow.

“What are you looking at?”

He shook his head with a soft smile. “Nothing.”

Leaning in, I  placed a soft kiss near his lips cupping his jaw like a kid, feeling his surprise. It was the first time I initiated.

Because by now I realised my feelings towards Agastya is not only as a best friend but it something more than it..

I am slowly started to fall for him...
