*Janice Pov* 

I am again waiting for him at the dining table. I guess I should have my food already. This is too much. 

It’s been one month, and he is just avoiding me. I was like okay with it because he needs space to get closure on Parul topic. 

And at present I really want to sleep rather than waiting for a husband who is out there busy with his friends. 

I want to talk with his parents actually I tried in the first week but all they have to say is he is my husband, and I should take care that he fulfills his responsibilities in the company to which he is not going from the time we got married. 

One after the other I am seeing nothing but a hole in the ground. I am trying to cover up them, but he is trying his best to uncover them. 

I glanced at the clock and saw that it is past twelve. That’s it! I can’t sit calmly like everyday. 

I have my own problems with my job and all. This is all new to me as well to take care of the house and then job. 

I finished having my dinner and walked inside our room. I paced in the room waiting for him, and he finally came after another hour. 

“Did you have dinner?” I asked him when he entered the room. 

“Yeah! I had with my friends.” He replied nodding. 

“David! With this pace we are going, I don’t think this is good for our lives at all.” I said directly. 

“What do you mean?” he asked frowning. 

“I mean you are escaping by the time I get ready and coming home late. On top of that you are not going to the office. I don’t even know what to think about all this.” I replied. 

“Are you complaining?” he asked frowning. 

“No! I am telling you what I am feeling.” I replied and he nodded, sitting on the bed. 

“It’s just my friends are asking for party one after the other, so I am busy with that. But don’t worry I decided to go to the office from tomorrow onwards again. I just thought if I go to the office by the next day itself people may talk so.” He explained, and I sighed in relief. 

“I really didn’t think about it. But thank you for listening.” I said holding his hand. 

“So now as I am going to the office, we will postpone our honeymoon.” He said smiling. 

“Oh, ok!” I mumbled, not knowing what to say about it. 

“I will go and freshen up.” He said walking inside the washroom while I walked outside the room to switch off all the lights and then bolted the door other than the lock. 

We both lay on the different sides of the bed and drifted off into sleep with our backs facing each other. 

I wish he moves on and starts our new life soon. 

*Adithya Pov* 

I walked in our room completely tired and saw her standing near the window looking outside like every day for the past one month. 

“I will freshen up and then we both will have dinner with my parents.” I said taking out my clothes. 

I took a long bath feeling my muscles relaxed in the hot water. The work has really increased these days, and the retirements are also more. 

But it is a good thing as there is a chance for the promotion which I want at any cost. I want to give a good life and increased salary is really helpful. 

I can’t and will not ask Dad for money and staying in the house is the big thing I am doing just for my parents and Parul. 

“Let’s go!” I said walking outside. 

“I don’t want to have dinner.” She mumbled, not turning around. 

“Why? Are you fine?” I asked her frowning. 

“Do we have to stay at your parent’s house?” She asked turning around. 

“What happened?” I asked her back. 

“Just tell me. Can’t we stay at some other place?” She asked frowning. 

“Parul! I don’t know what happens in my work every day. I may get late sometimes so it is safe for you to stay here with them and not alone.” I replied. 

“But they are questioning everything I am doing.” She said sighing. 

“I went to a party today and returned little late, but earlier than everyone in that party. But still I get your parents disappointed looks.” She added. 

“They worry about you and that’s all. Don’t think too much.” I said, holding her hand, and she nodded. 

“And also, if we go separately, then we have to live in a small house and reduce much spending." I added, and she nodded frowning. 

We both walked downstairs and started having our dinner. They asked about Parul what she is doing and all, and she replied honestly, when I nodded at her. 

“What is this? I thought you would leave that job and join the business after marriage. But now the problem is our daughter-in-law wants to be a model. That is not good for the family name.” Dad said shaking his head. 

“Dad! I will never leave my job, and about Parul let her do what she wants.” I said, and Parul smiled at me. 

“If anything wrong attaches to the family name, I will not ignore that.” He finally said when we both had a few words regarding her passion. 

“Thank you so much Adithya. I never thought your parents had any problem with any of it. I mean, if I know about this earlier then I would have never listened to my dad.” She said shaking her head. 

“What do you mean?” I asked her frowning. 

“I... mean this is arranged marriage right. I would have never accepted if I know the family will have a problem with my choice of career.” She replied and lay on the bed. 

“They will be fine, but you really need to start your career soon.” I said, because she did small assignments, but she needs to do more to reach the heights she wants. 

“I am trying.” She mumbled. 

“I may not get leave for a few months, so I am thinking of postponing the honeymoon. Is that ok with you?” I asked her. 

“Of course! I will be busy too, so that is a really good thing.” She said, turning away when I lay on the bed. 

“Can you never leave the job and take over the business? It will give you more money, right?” She calmly asked. 

“But it will never give me the satisfaction and sleep I get every night.” I replied, and we both drifted off into sleep. 

I wish she moves on, and we will start our new life soon.

  • New Beginning...   Epilogue

    #Two years after the day they both got married# *Janice Pov* “I am fine!” I mumbled holding his hand. "Fine?! If I was even a second late, you would have fallen down already.” He said, shaking his head, and we continued to climb down the stairs. “I am just a little tired, that’s all.” I said when we reached the dining table. “That’s why I asked you all not to celebrate the anniversary yesterday, and now you are tired because of that.” He said scolding his parents. “We all forgot your first anniversary last year, so we want to make it up to you both for the second one. That’s why we celebrated it yesterday.” Aunty said looking back at him. “By the way you didn’t complain to any of us during the celebration.” I pointed out smiling at him. “That’s because my wife is so smart here.” He said, narrowing his eyes at me. “What did I do?” I asked him innocently. “You know I will complain or even scold them so that’s why you asked them to even arrange a baby shower for you right? Do y

  • New Beginning...   Chapter 46

    *Janice Pov* “No!” I groaned hearing the last days plan. Nevertheless, no one heard it as all the guys said the same word along with me. Adi is the only one who heard it and raised his eyebrow looking at me. “Come on! All the girls accepted your wishes and didn’t go for shopping not a single time. Now let them enjoy it.” Kamal said trying to make everyone accept. “We will not come with you guys for shopping.” One guy said, and every guy accepted. “Ok! We don’t have a problem with that at all. We all girls will go and do it.” Few girls said getting up. “Why would any of you care if we go alone or not right?” I asked getting up with them. “Yeah! She is right. No one of you cares for us at all and doesn't mind for our safety too.” Pooja pushed my line. “What are you doing?” Adi asked in a whisper. “You proved that emotional blackmail will work right? So I am helping them and look at the guys faces. It is so fun.” I replied smiling at him. “Fine!” All the guys shouted hearing th

    *Janice Pov* “Wake up!” I groaned hearing that and turned away not wanting to open my eyes at all. Then I felt a little cold, so I patted beside me for him, but it is empty. I opened my eyes a little and asked, “Where are you?” “I just woke up and going to get ready.” He replied. “I will wake up too, but just stay here for a few minutes.” I said closing my eyes again. “No! We will get late.” He said sighing. “Ok! I will sleep in this cold by myself.” I said hearing him and sighed myself. I turned on my side with my back towards him and started to drift off into sleep with this cold feeling itself. In a few seconds, I felt him lay down beside me, and he pulled me towards him with a strong hold on my waist. I smiled into his hold, and he turned me around before I could actually sleep. “You just blackmailed me. Do you know that?” he asked accusingly. “It worked right?” I asked him back opening my eyes. “You are dangerous.” He replied, smiling at me. “And I love you.” I said,

    *Janice Pov* “I don’t want to wear it, Adi.” I said, pushing away the big sweater. “But you will get cold, Jaan. Listen to me please.” He said and at last I indeed wore that. We both walked outside and saw that everyone is reaching the busses. I glanced at all the girls, and I started removing the sweater as they all are looking great while I am covered in this stupid sweater. “What are you thinking? Don’t remove it.” Adi stopped me again. I glared at him before walking towards the bus where our pair is seated. Pooja and Kamal even went to an end and divided all the couples in two groups to not have any confusion. “Nice sweater, Janice.” Giri said, laughing and I wish I can pour water on his head again like yesterday. “Hey! Don’t say anything to her.” Adi said while I turned to glare at him for making me wear this. After getting on the bus, I looked outside the window and didn’t even say a single word. Finally, we reached a place where they selected for all of us to explore.

  • New Beginning...   Chapter 43

    *Janice Pov* I rubbed my palms, feeling sting which is nothing but the side effect of the slaps I just delivered. I am not wanting to slap anyone again. I decided and started rubbing it more hoping the feeling goes away. Then I felt arms circling me from behind. I leaned into his hold and asked, “Did your work finished?” “Yeah!” He replied, whispering in my ear, making me feel ticklish. After a few seconds, I placed my hands over his and heard a small hiss from behind. I looked down to see his knuckles becoming little red, and I can totally say that a bruise is going to appear. “Did you really?” I asked him shortly. “Yeah! Are you mad?” He asked, and I frowned. “I too slapped Parul. Are you mad at me?” I asked him back turning around in his hold. “First love is special, Jaan, but the love which we want to be last forever cannot be measured using even all the words in this world.” He explained, and I placed my palm over his cheek. “Then why will I be mad, Adi. Because I know

  • New Beginning...   Chapter 42

    *Adithya Pov* “What?” we both mumbled getting up from the bench and saw all of our friends standing before us. “I never thought you would do this, Adithya. I mean we all thought you are the best guy in our whole college.” Kamal said shaking his head. “Don’t you have shame?” Another guy asked with the same disgust. “Hey! Don’t you dare to say anything bad about him. I will not spare any one of you.” Jaan shouted at them and for one second, I got stun with none of them in my mind as Jaan never shouts at all with anger. “Don’t make us start with you Janice. Do you even know what you are doing? You are like a bad example for all the women.” Pooja said, and I glared at her. How dare she says a word about my wife? I fumed and heard everyone saying one worst thing towards us and mainly at Jaan. “Shut up!” I shouted with all the power I can and silence occupied around us. “It will not be good for anyone to say anything to her.” I threatened looking at each of them. “You are defending
