*Nisha Pov* As usual like every day I woke up from his bed and finished all the work and then decided to wake Ayesha up ruffling her hair. Nevertheless, when I touched her forehead, I felt her burning up. I walked inside his room and searched for the thermometer and got it in the last cupboard. I walked back and checked the temperature, and it was nearly 100. I slowly woke her up and asked, “Are you feeling any throat pain?” “Little!” She replied. “I will just be back.” I said making her lay again and went inside his room. I got ready and then started waking him up. He opened his eyes, groaning and asked, “What happened?” “Ayesha has a fever and I think it is better to take her to the hospital.” I replied. “What?” he asked immediately getting up. “I will get her ready, and in the meantime you get ready.” I said walking outside his room and just made her change her clothes. “Are you ready?” I asked, knocking on his door holding her. “Yeah! Let’s go.” He replied, opening the
*Nisha Pov* I groaned a little hearing the alarm and opened my eyes slowly because of which I came face to face with his. His eyes are still closed, and I guess he was sleeping as his breathing is in normal space. I continued to stare at his face and then looked where he still has a hold of my hand. I smiled, but frowned, thinking how should I feel right now? I am completely confused. I never was in a relationship before, and now I am married for more than one year. Why can’t he say something so that I can understand and not behave differently every single time? I slowly released my hand feeling headache coming my way of thinking about all this. I guess i should just keep quiet and wait for him to tell me what the deal is. For now, I will stay in this room as he asked. That’s what he asked me right, so that’s what I will do. I got ready and even got her ready hearing the dream she is explaining. We both walked downstairs and started having our breakfast. By the time, we finish
*Nisha Pov* “Nice top.” Ayesha said when I walked inside her room. “It is, right? My Bhabhi bought it for me last before the summer, but I never wore it.” I said and helped her to pack the bag properly. “You will be fine right?” I asked her walking downstairs. “Yes! And I will read a little, then sleep at the time I generally sleep.” She replied. “When did you become such a good girl?” I asked her teasingly. “I am always a good girl.” She replied, shrugging and I kissed her cheek. “Let’s go!” I said, standing near Sudhir, who is just staring at us. “Er... nice dress.” He said, and I nodded thanking him. He drove us to Sanju’s house, and we went inside to meet her parents. I looked at Ayesha and said, “If you want to talk to us, then just call me.” “I will be fine.” She said smiling. “Thanks for doing this.” Sudhir said looking at the elder couple. “No need to say that.” Aunty said, and we nodded leaving the house. “You will be fine right?” he asked when he stopped in fron
*Sudhir Pov* “When will you get to know, Kamal?” I asked calling him. “It’s just been one week and have some patience.” He replied scoffing. “Ok! If you want I can send the picture of that Charan.” I said hoping that will help him. “And you are saying that you have the picture of him now? Just send it right now.” He barked hanging up. “Now, I understand how you could put up with me.” I said, looking at Sanju, who is sitting in front of me. “He is soft guy ok, but his profession made him to be hard for outsiders.” She replied chuckling. “Did the tickets are booked?” I asked her. “Yes! And looks like my book worked.” She replied smirking. “No! This is my own plan, and this is for Ayesha.” I said getting up. “Where are you going?” She asked, looking at me. “I need to make a few more arrangements.” I replied and walked outside the cabin. When I walked into our home, I saw both sitting at the dining table. Nisha gestured at me towards our room, and I nodded, sitting down beside
*Sudhir Pov* “This is a pleasant surprise Sudhir.” Uncle said, smiling and I nodded smiling back. “Is Ayesha not with you both in Pune?” he asked. “No! She is in Mumbai.” I replied. “I met Indu’s mother after returning. She is really distraught regarding her daughter.” Uncle said, and I nodded at him. “Does Ayesha miss her?” He asked with pity. “She used to but now she is completely fine and Nisha is really good with her.” I replied, and he nodded frowning. “I hope she is not hurting Ayesha.” He mumbled. “She can never hurt her, but why are you saying that?” I asked him frowning. “I heard from many relatives of them that she is selfish and doesn’t respect our values.” He replied. “She is the most selfless person.” I said confidently. “So how is business going on?” He asked leaning back. “When will Charan return?” I asked him back. “He went to his friend's house and will return in one hour like that.” He replied. By that time, Nisha can return and can operate the camera t
*Sudhir Pov* “Wake up!” I heard someone whispering in my ear. “Just sleep.” I mumbled tightening my grip on her. “We need to go to that Man’s house.” She said and immediately opened my eyes to stare at her. “You are right.” I said, staring at her. “You will be fine.” She whispered, kissing on my forehead and moved away from my hold. “We need to ask him about this Charan thing too.” I said, and she nodded. We both got ready and reached his house. Aunty opened the door and frowned at us. “Your Uncle said you are leaving for Mumbai as you got some sudden crisis.” She said confused. “We didn’t leave.” Nisha replied, and we both sat on the couch like yesterday. Nisha placed her bag and started adjusting it-like yesterday making me frown. I looked at my watch to see how much time it will take for Kamal. “Why are you here again?” He asked entering the living room. “We wanted to show you a wonderful family video.” Nisha replied and took out her mobile. He took it and when the vid
*Nisha Pov* “Hey, are you fine?” Pavani asked when I reached the college. I nodded at her smiling and walked inside the classroom. I sat in my place and took a deep breath. I zoned out for all the classes thinking why I always hope, something which I am sure is not in my plate anymore. I actually thought perhaps we were improving, and possibly we will have a normal relation, but looks like I am just a fool. “So is he treating you well?” Aunty asked when we walked inside the kitchen. “He is!” I replied smiling. “Do you know he was smitten by Indu? He never left her alone and was always around her even when they are engaged.” She said smiling, and I can see the honesty in those eyes. And for the first time, I felt something twisted inside. It was never a problem for me that he was hers but right now after yesterday I don’t think I can hear it. “I am sure he must be still missing her. And wishing that he never lost her.” She said, and I can see tears forming in her eyes. “I wil
*Sudhir Pov* “What is it?” I asked Sanju impatiently when she just continued to stare at me. “Looks like you are still put into that zone.” She replied. “You are really annoying me.” I said and continued to do my work. “Just think me as your friend even though I already am.” She said sitting in front of me. “I am not going to discuss anything with you.” I said shaking my head. “I am not going to ask you to.” She said back. “Leave!” I said, sighing. “Come on, Sudhir. She is an amazing girl, and it will not take time for her to find someone who will take care of her in which you are failing.” She said sighing back. “I wish!” she whispered before sleeping. “Why do you think that I am failing?” I asked her frowning. “Then who got friend zoned by their wife.” She replied shaking her head. “Look, I can handle everything, and you need not to say anything.” I said and continued my work. “She is not just two years younger than you Sudhir. She can’t understand what is in your head
