Ragini woke up the next morning feeling disoriented. She noticed that her head was resting on something much firmer than her pillow, but it felt nice, familiar even. Then, the whole night came rushing back to her. The movie. Going to bed. The dream. And finally, asking Ronobir to stay. She felt her mouth forming into a smile involuntarily just at the thought of the man laying beside her. She would have laughed at anyone that told her Ronobir Chatterjee was capable of soothing someone after having a nightmare had they told her when she was in college. He wasn't the comforting type, or so he had appeared all those years ago. But, here he was, not only having calmed her down after her bad dream but also never leaving her side when she had asked him to stay. However, she had a feeling he would only do those things for her, and that only made her smile grow.

My words paint a world where memories resurface, both beautiful and haunting. It's up to you to decide if you want to reminisce or rewrite.
