*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
*Mridula Pov* “Can you do something for me, Mridula?” Aunty asked making me glance up from the food, I am arranging before her in her room. “What is it, Aunty?” I asked her frowning. “There will be a party at one house tomorrow and the hosts are really important ones who make decisions for the family is having with government. I have to go, but I am still not feeling well right.” she replied and I nodded, waiting for her to ask what she wants to. “Can you attend this along with Tajwar?” I sat still for a few seconds hearing her request and immediately shook my head. “He doesn’t like the parties, and the outside ones are not at all acceptable. And I have not learnt anything regarding what to do while going to someone’s party.” I said, and she sighed. “I know it is hard, and I would have asked Dileep but he is out of station regarding business. And Aahil can’t go because he is in the political field which will cause scandal. Also Nipuna is already showing a little. Try to ask him.
*Tajwar Pov* “I will choose the attire for you.” Mridula said while handing over the lunch making me frown at her. “I didn’t say that I would attend the party.” I pointed out to which she gave me a small smile shaking her head. “I know that you will attend this party.” she mumbled confidently, and I shook my head at her thoughts. “Ok! Select a little normal color, but not a vibrant one.” I said and she nodded, smiling more before we both walked outside the room. “Seems like a good party.” I mumbled to which she grinned, and I walked away nodding at her. I don’t know why she said those words to the women, but hearing the words which I am already feeling from that woman made me sadder and angry. I am feeling continuously that Lavanya must be sad that I got married and all those thoughts. Nevertheless, hearing the same views from strangers made it more possible, and I took the anger on Mridula. I just hope nothing like that happens in this party as I don’t want another drama to h
*Premila Pov* I glanced up from the plates I am arranging for breakfast and saw Tajwar pacing in the living room holding his head. For every second, he is glancing at the kitchen before looking away. I cleared my throat, making him realize that I am standing here, and he slowly turned around before walking near to the table. “Do you need anything?” I asked, staring at him with a blank face. “Where is Mridula?” he asked before glancing at the kitchen door. “She is taking rest.” I replied and he immediately frowned hearing my reply. “I just left my room and walked downstairs. She is not in the room.” He said, and I frowned a little before understanding where she is. “She must be in her old room. And don’t disturb her.” I said before walking away to bring the breakfast. When I returned I saw him leaving the house and sighed, thinking how can I even correct his wrong doing. I shook my head before walking into my room to call Abhivanth. “Why did you not talk and didn’t ask them an
