Chapter 13: Babu (Act 3)
The tent was cramped, its walls barely holding against the relentless storm outside. The air was thick with the scent of damp earth and the faint, musty odor of Babu’s makeshift shelter. A single, flickering lantern cast dim light over the space, illuminating the worn-out blankets and scattered belongings. The sound of rain hammering against the tent’s fabric filled the silence, a steady rhythm that seemed to echo Lina’s racing thoughts.
She sat cross-legged on the edge of the blanket, her torn clothes clinging to her body, damp and cold. Her hands trembled as she held them tightly together, trying to steady herself. Babu knelt beside her, his rough hands carefully tending to the scratches and bruises on her arms. His touch was surprisingly gentle, his gruff exterior softened by the kindness in his eyes.
“You don’t have to tell me anything if you’re not ready,” Babu said, his voice low and soothing. “But if it helps to talk, I’m here.”
Lina hesitated, her breath catching as she glanced at him. She wanted to trust him, but the weight of what she’d endured tonight pressed heavily on her chest.
Finally, she whispered, “I just... I wanted to help my husband. His shop...it’s struggling. I thought I could do something, but...” She trailed off, her voice breaking.
Babu nodded slowly, his eyes never leaving hers. “Sometimes, the world doesn’t give us what we deserve. But that doesn’t mean we stop fighting.”
Lina’s tears spilled over, streaking down her cheeks. “It wasn’t just about the money,” she choked out. “They... they treated me like I was nothing. Like my body was theirs to take....” She cut herself off, unable to say more.
Babu’s expression darkened, his jaw tightening. “Men like that...they don’t deserve your pain. You’re worth more than they could ever understand.”
Lina wiped her tears with the back of her hand, her voice trembling. “Sometimes, I feel like that’s all anyone sees in me is my body. My husband... he’s no different. He doesn’t understand what I want, what I need.”
Babu’s hand paused on her wrist, his thumb brushing over her skin. “What do you want, Lina?” She looked at him, her eyes searching his. “I want to be seen. I want to matter. And... I want to be a mother. To have a child of my own. But my husband... he couldn’t... He doesn’t care.” Babu’s gaze softened, a flicker of understanding passing between them.
“Sometimes,” he said gently, “you have to take charge of your own life. You can’t wait for someone else to give you what you need.”
Lina let out a shaky breath, his words sinking in. She had always put her husband’s needs before her own, always sacrificed her own desires for the sake of their family. But now, sitting here with Babu, she felt something shift a spark of realization, of courage.
The storm outside showed no sign of letting up, the wind howling through the trees. Babu glanced at the tent walls, then back at Lina. “You’re freezing,” he said quietly. “If this keeps up, you’ll catch a cold.”
Lina wrapped her arms around herself, shivering. “I don’t have a choice. I can’t leave yet.”
Babu hesitated, his brow furrowing. “There’s... one way we can stay warmer. But you might not like it.”
Lina looked at him, curiosity flickering in her eyes. “What do you mean?”
He took a deep breath, his voice measured. “If we remove our clothes, we can use them as an extra layer over the blanket. And... skin-to-skin contact would help us stay warm.”
Lina’s eyes widened, her cheeks flushing. “Babu, I...I can’t...”
“It’s not about anything else,” he said quickly, his tone sincere. “I just don’t want you to get sick. I swear, I won’t do anything you’re not comfortable with. We’ll just... share body heat.”
Lina stared at him, her heart pounding. She was married, faithful to her husband but the cold was biting, and she couldn’t deny the logic in Babu’s suggestion. Slowly, she nodded. “Okay. But..just warmth. Nothing else.”
Babu gave her a reassuring smile. “Just warmth.” With trembling hands, Lina unbuttoned her blouse, slipping it off her shoulders. She hesitated before unzipping her pants, sliding them down her legs. Beneath, she wore only her bra as her panties had been discarded at the massage parlor, soiled and ruined by the night’s events. She crossed her arms over her chest, feeling exposed.
Babu turned away, stripping off his own clothes until he was completely bare. His body was lean and weathered, his skin marked by years of hardship. He settled onto the blanket, holding it open for her. “Come here,” he said softly.
Lina hesitated, then lay down beside him, her back pressed against his chest. His warmth enveloped her instantly, his arms wrapping around her stomach. She could feel his limp cock resting against her ass cheeks, a reminder of the intimacy of their situation. Babu’s breath was warm against her neck, his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm.
They lay in silence for a moment, the storm raging outside. Lina’s heart raced, her body hyper-aware of Babu’s closeness. She tried to focus on the warmth, on the way his arms held her gently, protectively. But there was something else...a flicker of arousal that she couldn’t ignore.
“Babu,” she whispered, her voice barely audible.
“Hmm?” His response was soft, almost a hum against her skin.
“Thank you,” she said, her heart swelling with gratitude. “For... for everything.”
Babu tightened his hold on her, his voice low. “You deserve kindness, Lina. Always remember that.”
She closed her eyes, letting his words sink in. For the first time in a long time, she felt seen not as an object, not as a body, but as a person. And in that moment, she allowed herself to believe that maybe, just maybe, she could take control of her own destiny.
