*Mridula Pov* I can really do it! I thought taking a deep breath and entered the room holding the carriage while he is just getting ready for the office. “Can I ask you something?” I asked slowly when he walked near me to take the lunch and breakfast. “Sure!” He replied, still with his hand forward with the box. “Ok! You said we will see when I suggested the plan yesterday right? Can you try to return home soon today? I mean ten o'clock is really late.” I said and waited for his denial or anything. “We will see. Now, I am getting late.” He said taking the lunch and walked outside the room. We will see? I groaned and just started walking outside following him to just start the work I stopped in the garden after talking to Dileep, who surprisingly didn’t come home yesterday night making Aunty worry. “What are you doing?” Aunty asked and I got startled, making my gaze moved away from the door. “I was waiting for him.” I replied, frowning and glanced at the door again while adjust
*Mridula Pov* The decision is so bad! I thought after two days when I miss the ease we once formed disappeared between us, and we are just being to ourselves not exchanging a single word appropriately. “Why are we not talking to each other properly?” I asked directly not being able to bear the silence anymore and also the awkwardness. “Let’s talk!” he said and glanced up from his plate. “I… thanks for coming home early.” I mumbled, trying to stare at his face without looking away. “I always follow a schedule. When I start doing something one day, I do it from that day onwards continuously unless there is a need to change it again.” he explained making me frown. “Why are you talking stiffly?” I asked, shaking my head not getting any reason behind it. “Why are you looking away whenever you say something?” he asked back and I wish I didn’t question him in the first place. “I don’t know! I feel the decision we took is a wrong one.” I replied honestly. “It is not wrong when you ar
\*Mridula Pov* I think it is fine to open my eyes and no need to lay on the bed with eyes closed for another half an hour. After a few minutes, I finally opened my eyes and turned towards him to only see him still sleeping at the end of the bed. When did he move there? I thought, frowning and slowly sat up. I don’t remember when I even drift off into sleep and don’t know when he moved away. I glanced at the clock to see that there is still a little time for him to get up and immediately moved away hoping he will not wake up before I freshen up. When I successfully moved inside the washroom and closed the door, I sighed in relief before staring at the mirror. I frowned, looking at the color on my neck and then remembered him biting there while saying something. I shook my head when everything is just keeping on repeating and started having my shower. The moment I stepped outside the washroom, I felt a tug near my wrist and turned to see him standing there with his clothes, and he
*Tajwar Pov* “Wake up!” I heard a faint sound, but I brushed the hand away before drifting off into sleep again. “You are getting late for work.” I heard the voice again, but feeling tired, I turned to the other side and again slept off. “Please wake up at least now.” And this time I finally did to scold her, but stopped when I saw that her face is very near to me, and she is just whispered in my ear. “Why are you disturbing my sleep?” I asked, startling her, but before she could move away, I encircled her waist with my hand and made her fall on me. “Do you even know what the time is? It is nine o'clock." She replied when I didn’t budge to release her no matter how much she tried. “What?” I asked, staring at her in shock. “Yes!” she replied, nodding and turned my head so that I can glance at the clock. “I have been waking you up, but you just didn’t wake up even a little.” She added, and I frowned at her. “This is all your fault.” I accused her before releasing her and sat up
*Tajwar Pov* “What?” I asked when she just stared at me and didn’t stop doing it from the moment I stepped inside the room, and now I even got freshen up. “Nothing! I will go downstairs.” she replied, frowning and moved to reach the door, but I stopped holding her hand. “What did I tell you about lying?” I asked raising my eyebrow. “Do you hate lying that much? You always use the same sentence.” she asked back, to which I nodded, accepting that I really hate the lying part. “We will talk later. Now, I have to go and arrange the dining table.” she mumbled smiling and tried to get her hand released from my grip. “Do you have to do all that? I am feeling hungry now.” I said, frowning to which she chuckled before staring at me with a serious look. “Why don’t you come downstairs and have the food with all of them?” I released her hand as usual hearing the same question, and I am giving her same reaction but she is not at all getting tired of this. After a half an hour she returned
*Mridula Pov* I gave a small smile to him when he came into the room, returning from work and turned to pick out his clothes he can wear to have dinner with his family. “I will go downstairs and arrange the table. I already placed the night wear for you and come downstairs when you wish to.” I said, smiling before walking near to the door, but he stopped me by holding my hand. “I didn’t lie this time.” I mumbled, turning to stare at him. “Will you not stay here to make sure that I actually come downstairs for breakfast?” he asked raising his eyebrow. “You promised me, Tajwar. And I trust you.” I replied, smiling at him more before walking away when he released my hand. “Dileep is also coming for dinner. Place his plate too.” Aunty mumbled before staring at the main door. “He is so late.” She added mumbled to herself, and I calmly placed the plates and an extra one at Tajwar’s old place. After a few minute's Uncle and Aahil arrived, and I glanced up near to the stairs waiting f
*Tajwar Pov* Before I could shake her coming out of my shock to make her stop saying all these stupid words, she drifted off into sleep. I moved her away from me and moved myself to the end of the bed before turning my back towards her with her confession ringing in my ears. I told her in the beginning itself regarding the null allowance of all these things with the life from me. Then how can she say this and to top of that drift off into sleep? After a few minutes when I didn’t get any sleep, I got down from the bed and walked near to the coffee table and sat down. If she is awake right now, then I would have shouted at her. Nevertheless, what would I have shouted? I thought immediately frowning. She didn’t do any crime and all I can do is ignore her confession and then, she will let go of it understanding me. I decided that it would be for the best and then frowned. What if she doesn’t understand my behavior and ask me directly? What should I say to her? Even after knowing ev
*Mridula Pov* For the past two days, I think we are fine. We are not sharing any words, but still we are fine. He is joining everyone for dinner and leaving for office not at five o'clock. So, we are really fine! I thought, nodding to myself and turned to see Dileep sitting on the bench in silence. I reached near to him after washing my hands finishing the work with watering the plants. “Did something happen?” I asked hearing, which he glanced up but again looked down. “No!” he replied, shaking his head. “You are staying here for the past two days and not saying a word to any of us.” I stated to which he sighed. “I am just angry.” He said making me frown because I don’t remember something happening, which would make him angry. “You can tell me.” I offered but he shook his head, and I slowly walked away not knowing what else to say. In the evening, I glanced at the door to see that Tajwar didn’t return home, and I started taking care of the dinner arrangements before calling ev
