The burning sky

Chapter 15 (when devil flirts with his muse)

Rex is sleeping.

This time he seems much calmer. A strange simplicity surrounds him. Rai can't look away. Who will say, this boy has done an incredible thing a little while ago! Her soul still trembles when she thinks about it. No pain! How can a healthy strong man cut his throat like that!

A little earlier today Rai removed the bandage and checked the wound, her hands and feet were cold from fear. The skin is expertly cut, showing no signs of struggle. That means Rex's hand did not shake even once while cutting, which is practically impossible due to the extreme pain. How could it be! Once while cutting onions, Rai had a small cut on her index finger, she carries her hand for seven days as if someone had plucked a finger! Suparna made fun of her on the phone. What will Suparna say when she sees this! What is going on in the head of Rex! Not anyone can do that!

She thinks lying on the sofa, her eyelids do not meet even for a moment even she is endlessly drowsy. Rai does not know the reason for her attraction to Rex! The boy can really make her dance to his own moves, there is no lie in that. No matter how many obstacles she faces at the end of the day, the CEO of one of India's best tech companies feels extremely vulnerable in front of him.

Not that Rex is overly handsome, of course not. He is very ordinary, yet Rai finds new surprises in him every day. She knows Rex's looks won't appeal to girls, he doesn't have the drooling beauty of a model's or an actor's. But there is an immense mystery that draws Rai like a magnet. No matter how deep she goes, she can't find the surface, she runs out of breath again and again.

Now as Rai is looking at the sleeping Rex, nothing seems to fill her mind. How can someone feel so soft, so transparent in sleep! Why does the fog crowd around him when he wakes up, nothing can be seen through it! She runs her finger on Rex's forehead, nose, cheek, and gazes with fascination, how the time seems to pass.

Suddenly Rex moved on top of Rai, then looked directly at her with freshly awakened eyes. Rai wanted to kiss his eyelids, restraining herself with great difficulty.

"What beauty, woke up finally ?"

Rai asked in a light voice. Rex stares at her for a long moment without answering, as if he can't believe it's a dream or reality.

"There you are!"

He asks in a whisper. Rai looked at him in surprise.

"You mean what ! Where will I go? You're sleeping on top of me, if I were an amoeba I'd melt away, unfortunately there are bones. "

"I thought it's a hallucinations."

Rex says in a low voice. Rai's eyes widened.

"You hallucinate too! What else?"

She asked worriedly. Rex shows no signs of rising above her. It is as if he is getting peace by sleeping like this.

"A lot."

Rishabh said with a light yawn. He buried his head in Rai's chest and closed his eyes again. Rai's panic level increases,

"A lot to say! What exactly do you want to say!"

"Nothing."

Rishabh says in a sleepy voice. Rai doesn't answer. She didn't understand what was going to be said to him. There are usually two reasons why people hallucinate, either they are using a very hard drug or their mental illness is deeply affecting them. What exactly is happening in the case of Rex! How to know about him! She have to ask suparna about it.

"Sit up if you are done sleeping, my back hurts. Would you like something to eat?"

Rai asked changing the subject. After lying in the same way for a while, Rex finally sat up. He rubs his eyes with both hands and says,

"It won't take anything."

Rai gasped as he climbed off her. After lying in one position for so long, her arms, legs and back ached, and she began to walk to stretch her mussels.

"Are you okay?"

Rai asked while walking. Rex watched her movements with a glance,

"Absolutely."

He answered in one word. Rai gets angry, but doesn't express it.

"I saw your throat, medicine should be applied. Bandages will also have to be new."

Rai says slowly. Rex doesn't answer for a while, what is he thinking! he then say,

"I will."

"When will you stop this kind of s**t?"

Rai asked directly. Rishabh looks at her a little surprised. The girl is angry with him, or afraid!

"Why?"

He asks in one word. Rai felt the walls around him thicken. The boy is extremely unintelligible.

"Because my heart beats so high beautiful! I get heartbroken for your actions two times."

Rai said gasping and sitting next to him. Resting his head on her shoulder, Rex sighed. He had thought far ahead. The girl is worried about him.

"Then listen to me."

He said biting Rai's earlobe. Rai's whole body is paralyzed. She is dizzy with a lot of trouble in her head,

"Give me a list of what I haven't listen until today! I don't remember that I was that much obedient to my late parents. But you say that very little."

She said with a frown. Rex touches her jaw and lips with his finger, as if to measure her by touch,

"Get it."

He whispers. This is also a strange habit of his, sees Rai.

"I'm thinking I'll start studying astrology. Let's see if i can understand you with the degree there!"

Rai says trying hard to stop herself from jumping on Rex. Rex can understand her attempt at self-control. He likes it. The girl loves to touch him, but not against his will.

"Go, Suparna is waiting. Come at night."

He says the same. Also touches Rai's cheek lightly with his lips.

"Your mercy Lord! Why should i come at night?"

Rai somehow manages to keep herself from falling off the sofa. Rex fell on the opposite side of the sofa with a frown.

"Maybe you can get something."

He said looking at the ceiling. Rai got up and stood up.

" Not only me, my whole existence will come at night. Now go eat and bandage up. Do not forget to apply medicine to the burn marks on the chest. "

Saying the words, she stormed out.

Rai knows that if she waits for a few more moments, she will not be able to get out from Rex's front, she will be stuck again.

Rex, who has just woken up from sleep, and a forest fire are the same thing, they do not leave without destroying everything. There is no worldly definition of this tension, if anyone hears it the first thing is to ask her to see a doctor, but Rai herself knows exactly how powerful this tension is. Just by looking at her, the boy could knot her internal organs together, such is his power, how many heads on Rai's neck to ignore his calls! Tonight she will return here again, not for the greed of getting anything, but for her own love, before that let's handle Suparna's anger.
