15 - She wanted love, not lessons

Both Shashi and Aakash were fast asleep when a knock against the bedroom door broke through the silence. Aakash's eyes opened immediately, his sleep disappearing almost instantly as he tried to understand what had woken him. He glanced toward the woman sleeping beside him. Shashi hadn't moved much during the night. One hand rested protectively over her stomach while the other remained between her thighs, her face still carrying the exhaustion of everything she had endured. Aakash carefully pulled the quilt higher over her, making sure she was properly covered before getting out of bed. His expression was already annoyed at whoever had decided that knocking at this hour was a good idea.
