His hand strokes her wild hair where it lays along his chest. Ramji watches the play of her curls around his fingers. If she were awake... No, he would let her sleep. His eyes are soft, filled with the wonder of her. She had laid his fears to rest, giving him as good as she got.

Her sleepy eyes open, blinking as she looks around. He leans close, "Shhhh, You are in my room Laila. Go back to sleep..."

She rolls, cradling her bandaged hand as she cuddles back against his side. Ramji rolls, tucking her closer to his body as he curls around her. Morning will come soon enough, he thinks, and she needs to sleep. he closes his eyes, listening to the quiet room as he slips into a light doze.
