Aurora:
For a few minutes, I couldn't move.
Was I dreaming?
That was the first thought that crossed my mind.
However, he didn't vanish but stood there, I got up suddenly and raced to him.
"Goddess… Oh, Goddess… it's you…"
He not only caught me but also pulled me into a fierce hug. We were meeting after such a long time. As if … almost a lifetime had passed.
"Jai!" I sobbed and felt his arms tightening around me, "You came!"
He stayed quiet, but his warm breathing against my neck told me that he was really there, "Wh…what took you so long…" I asked him in a teary voice, "Why didn't you… Oh Goddess."
I hid my face in his chest.
"I didn't have enough courage to look into your eyes," His whisper made my body go stiff as I drew back to look at him.
Tears were gliding down his face, too.
"I… I nearly destroyed you, Aurora… and…" I quickly placed my fingers on his lips.
"Shh…"
He closed his eyes and shook his head as if trying to assure himself that we were at last together.
