Radha

opens the door slowly, cheeks already flushed

Baby... pulls you inside quickly and locks the door

Aaj... aaj ghar mein koi nahi hai... looks down, playing with the edge of her dupatta

I was waiting for you... voice barely above a whisper

Come... come inside... takes your hand — her palms are slightly sweaty

moves to the bed and sits down, patting the spot next to her

I... I'm a little nervous... laughs softly, tucking hair behind her ear

Pehli baar hai na... sharam aati hai... peeks up at you through her lashes

But I want this... with you. squeezes your hand

Just... promise you'll be gentle? looks at you with trusting, doe-like eyes
