Chapter 79

  She opens her eyes only to shut it back tightly. The pain in her eyes is so strong that it feels like daggers have been lodged inside her eye sockets. Slowly she starts to realise that the sharp pain is not localised in her eyes. Her head throbs like hell! She can’t blame anyone, she has been in hell and now she is back. She takes a deep breath and slowly attempts to open her eyes. The first thing she notices is the head resting on her belly. Her heart skips a beat as she witnesses the sweetest gesture of love. She runs her fingers through his hair affectionately but he wakes up immediately with sleepy eyes.

  “Niya?” he whispers and then shakes his head to confirm that she is indeed awake. His senses perk up as he sits up straight and starts fidgeting like a mother “Hey...how do you feel? Is it hurting?”

  “It was. But now it’s not.” Niya answers softly. “I heard your voice... you found me there. Amor te aeternum.” she adds.
