The Night I Lost My Innocence

“It’s okay,” I said, “Nothing will happen. Can you not even support me?” She blushed. We started eating and drinking.

As we ate and drank, Sonali became intoxicated. She was giggling and said, “Raj, you are so good! I’m lucky to have a boyfriend like you. You’ll take me on a journey to paradise, promise me.”

I lifted her in my arms and took her to the rooftop. The night air was cool. We stood there for about 30 minutes, holding each other close and walking around. I was eager, but she wasn’t in a hurry. “Enjoy this night fully,” she said, “Don’t rush into anything.”

So, I followed her lead. Then we went back downstairs.

The Night We Met

She left me in the bedroom and went to another room, saying she’d be back soon. When she returned, I was stunned. She had let her hair down, wearing a red night suit that tied only at the shoulders, revealing one breast tantalizingly. Her skin glowed with a healthy pallor, her arms were slender, her cheeks flushed, and an intoxicating fragrance clung to her. I was lost in her beauty.
