He looked furious and extremely pissed off, the expression of horror changed into an annoyed one. He looked through the window and hopped down after unlocking his seatbelt as he realized that we reached his place. I followed him, knowing i did not know a thing about this foreign world. I took long steps to match with his pace and he finally stopped as he unlocked the brown polished doors.I took my time to have a look of his Villa. Completely opposite to his Kanpur's house, this place screamed modesty and richness. A large pool in the right side and a beautiful garden on the other. Well, Gill's were born rich. Their ancestors were highly wealthy and it just passed down to one generation to another. Dadi and her late husband did not loved these luxurious places so that's the reason why they built an average house for themselves. As i heard the door open, i entered behind Abhishek and to say i was spell bound would be an understatement. It was magnificent. Similar like the ones i saw i
I finally laid down on my new bed and Abhishek went to have a virtual meeting in his office. My stomach growled and i was beyond annoyed. My back literally broke ,sitting five to six hours straight. Now all i wanted was a cup of adrak wali chai (ginger added tea) by my dad. Dad....i miss you so much!! I'm getting the waves of your memories! The waves making me guilty. Its not even a week of your demise and here, i was being married and performed all the rituals! A tear finally left from my eye as i imagined my dad's face. He was so charming. So good. So understanding.I could not let myself dive into those blissful memories and cry for something which was so inevitable. It was painful but inevitable! I immediately got up and grabbed one of my bags. Opening its chain, i took out the photoframes that i kept in the middle of my clothes, so it won't be broken. I smiled at those memories and put it on the wall, just opposite of my bed and walk out of the room. It was then i noticed, how
A week of our marriage and i was still sitting in the dining chair, waiting for Abhishek to come back from his office. But 2 hours were still left. He usually arrives at 8 and right now, its just 5:53 p.m. .I never knew i would be so wrong about my decision, when i said, i will not let Abhishek affect me again.He affected me. Voluntary or not. He did. The feelings that i thought were left behind, never did. It was still a part of me, a deep one that i ignored for so long. Maybe i never forgot Abhishek in the first place. I just had buried his memories, never tried to forget them. Equations between us, has not been much changed. There were times when we won't know what to speak and what not. Things would be awkward without any reason. Mostly because both of us, do not want to initiate any conversation by ourselves. If one starts, the other plays along. The one being mostly me. Most of our conversations were about the family. How revti aunty would scold all the children, or how son
"Just how..irresponsible youuu can be??" I said between my laughs. "You will be so dead because you hung up on aunty.""Not really." He smirked. "I will say that her daughter like daughter in law cut the phone and started doing something which i cannot tell her." My laughter died and i blushed unwantedly."You know its impossible!""I know. They don't." He winked. This man!!I thought to give him some pies, but he does not deserves it! I pack all the pies and smacked his arm as he tried to take some. "Not for you.""Then for whom?""For my love.."I shrugged and he laughed. Is he mad? I, his wife, told him that i made the pies for my lover and he is laughing?"You hardly went anywhere outside here. Who will be your lover here?""Who said my lover is outside? There are many bachelors around my age, who work here. " i wiggle my eyebrows, liking to see the shocked expression on his face.
I took my phone out to call Abhishek and ask him to send the driver but, i did not had his number. Shit, Lavi! How can you forget to take his number?Even he didn't realised that we had not shared our numbers yet, when he asked me to ring his mobile. How stupid can we be?I instantly checked for 'Gills' villa' on g-maps, but guess what? The net was not working. Great. I thought to call Revti aunty but knew that was a very bad idea. She will scold us in return, and especially at Abhishek. She will be beyond angry if she gets to know that i was in the middle of the road, trying to find my way for home."Are you looking for an auto?" An auto driver asked me and i shook my head. He looked drunk. Moreover his eyes scanned my body, making me a little uncomfortable. "You look new. Come i will drop you, in free." Came his lusty voice.I shook my head again and started to walk back at the campus. The driver followed me still. "Sit inside. I will drop you."Can't he understand, i don't want hi
"You think one sorry will cover it all?" His voice was emotionless as he wore a random tee. It was the first time, i heard him like this. And trust me, it was not a warm feeling."I..I will... clean the house and make the dinner real quick." I said whatever came up my mind. My tone sounded apologetic and guilty. He finally looked at me with a distant look, and sighed. "You really think, i'm upset because you, dripped water on the furniture and did not cook the dinner? Seriously, Lavanya?" He asked in disbelief.Is he not?"You claim to read human psychology and you don't know what i'm upset about? Unbelievable." He exclaimed and passed past me.A psychologist is not a mind-reader! Nonetheless, I followed him quickly. "Then why are you upset?" He glared at me. "I mean, i'm not a mind reader. You need to tell me why are you so upset?" I clarify.He shook his head in disbeief and descended the stairs. Me following him like a pet. "Now you are exaggerating it. Stop acting chidish!" I sa
"I forgot to ask yesterday, but how was your interview yesterday?" Abhishek asked as we had our breakfast. We had shared our numbers now.Yesterday, after maggi he ordered a pizza and we'd called it a night after we filled our stomachs. Things were very awkward but he tried to overlook it and tried to crack some jokes, to which i replied in monosyllables. When i hit my bed, i found myself behaving like an immature kid. The things were not as complicated as i made it appear. He was definately right in his place, and i in mine. But we failed to coordinate."It was horrible." I replied to his question. "The principal was too rude. She looked like a female version of Hitler. You know which question she asked me first? She asked me if i can assure 99 percent result in psychology, then only the interview should proceed.""She must be a business woman. Seedhi baat, no bakwaas. " he shrugged as if it was not a big deal.(No beat around
"There were jammers in the college, so i was trying to call you from the middle stopper in the road. Later realised i could not, so i was busy thinking what next to do. Then a driver came and...." Before i could complete, Abhishek cut me. "He tried to pull any cheap trick?""No, i mean yes. He was insisting me to sit on his auto , even after i refused to him because he looked drunk and i was feeling uncomfortable from him. He continued to follow me and a policeman came, the driver drove away, and the policeman made me sit on a bus. That's it." I finally complete. And there was no ounce of pain in my voice, except the regret. "There is more to it."Ughhh...why can't be satisfied with what i am telling.I finally narrated him my regret of leaving that driver and all. Leaving the part where i was travelled to my old bad times. "What? For such a small thing, you were so lost? I mean, i understand you could not do anything about it
