He was having his second glass of whisky when he heard her scream. He rushed to her room..She was crying "Ritwik what did I do to deserve this?I am feeling so dirty.It is as if I have become impure.Somebody has polluted me."
"Shh Myra there is nothing wrong with you.He is a sick man .Just don,t think about the incident and go to sleep."
"I can't sleep.Whenever I close my eyes I can see his face.I see him eyeing me greedily,the lusty look of his face . Ritwik can you sleep with me in this room today? I can't bear to be alone."
Ritwik slipped in the covers beside her. After some time she fell asleep holding his hand.He looked at her .She looked so innocent in her sleep.That bastard had tried to violate her.He felt so helpless .He felt very protective towards her. He would not send her home till she recovered from this shock.Tomorrow mornig he would give a final warning to Jatin and also get a court order restraining him to come near her.
For the first time in his life he slept with a woman platonically but it was a deep and restful sleep.
