Raj's POVShe was kind of uncomfortable and I didn't know what to say to make her comfortable, but we would have to be comfortable if we have to share the room.I just cleared my throat and said, " I understand that you are not happy with this marriage, but now we are married and can't get out of it. We got married for our families and they would get hurt if we are unhappy. So try to behave normally for their sake. You can live your life the way you want it and I will do the same. I will not interfere in yours and I expect the same from you... It has been a very long and tiring day, you must be very tired so please be comfortable and take a rest."" Raj..." She said but I didn't want to talk to her right now." Myra, please not right now, it has been a very long, tiring, and stressful day. Can we please talk later, I have a migraine. " I said." Yeah, sure... Please take some medicine. " She said with concern.Concern??I must say she is a good actress. She looked shy earlier now c
Myra's POV" Can you please fasten these fasteners?? "I looked at him through the mirror and he was looking at my back as If I had asked him to defuse a live bomb. He kept staring at my back." Er... I don't know how to do it. Do it yourself. " He said." I have been trying to do it for the last 5 minutes. Please do it. "I said. He gulped." Why don't you call Roohi, mom, or Chachi to do it? " He asked still looking at my back." It is such a simple thing, it would look so odd if I call them. Please, it would get awkward. " I said." What is awkward about it, you could not do it yourself, so you are seeking help. " He said." Exactly !! That's why I am asking you. They would tease why didn't I ask you to help." I said." Fine!!" He said and came closer. He fastened them but it seemed to be a tough job as he was taking a lot of time. His hand touched my back and I felt sparks coming off at the point of contact. It seemed that he caressed my bare skin.I flinched a bit out of sur
Myra's POV" Are you sure that my name is even written in her Mehandi??" Raj asked with a hint of sarcasm." Of course, why are you asking that? " Sia aunty said." Have you all forgotten that she was supposed to get married to Manik, so his name must be on her hand, not mine?" He said. I just wanted to go away from there as I was feeling hurt." His name was never written in the Mehandi, I added your name when she got ready with the instant color mehndi tube. " Sia aunty said." But the Mehandi function was on the previous day and by then, he was... " Raj was saying." Well, when the Mehandi was being applied to her hand, she had refused the artist to add any name, it seemed very odd at that time but now I think that maybe she didn't feel that connection with him to get his name written on her hand. I don't know why she refused so firmly, maybe it was a sign of destiny, Maybe because your name was supposed to go on her hand as you were destined to be together. " Sia aunty said.Ra
Myra's POVAfter breakfast, Sia aunty told me to get ready as my brothers were coming to pick me up."But aunty, I am already ready, is it not good enough? " I asked." It is nice but what I meant is that you should wear some bangles, and jewelry, as you are going there for the first time after getting married. So you have to represent the Kapoor family as well, as now you are our family member too. Moreover, your family would like to see you dressed just the way a new bride should. If you want, Roohi or I can help you. " Sia aunty said." No, I understood, I will go and get ready. "I went to my room and saw that Raj was working on his laptop. I opened my bags and took out everything, that was needed like some nice and elegant jewelry, and matching bangles, and applied a little makeup.I looked at Raj through the mirror and was pleasantly surprised that he was looking at me.I started wearing bangles and wore earrings but the little clamp of my diamond necklace seemed to be complica
Myra's POVAfter taking a quick shower, I decided to wear a nice western evening dress but as per the suggestion of my mom, mami, and Sneha aunty, I wore a traditional dress and applied some light makeup.I went out and saw that Raj had not come till now. Where was he?? His meeting could not take so much time to wind up. Was he avoiding me??Everyone was waiting for him to come. Roohi and Ruhan tried to call him and just then the doorbell rang and he walked in." Hey, Raj!!! We have been waiting for so long and tried calling you so many times, but it was unreachable. See Myra has been looking at the door since evening. " Viren rushed to him and embraced him." Er... sorry Viren, actually I tried telling the client a few times that I needed to go but you see, some clients are a bit difficult to handle. I could not let the deal go off my hands as it was my first independent project. " Raj said." So did you crack the tough nut? " Viren asked." Yeah... Otherwise, I would not have wast
Myra"s POV" Ok, stop this conversation, Viren, let them enjoy the food. Raj, beta, you are not eating, Myra, serve more food on his plate. " Srusti mami said." No, please... " Raj was saying." No, serving on his plate would not work, make him eat with your hand," Mamu said." Yes, good idea, and Raj will you not feed her back? C'mon, I have assured Viraj that you will take care of her, you must feed her she is a fussy eater. " Sujoy uncle said." No, I am full. " Raj said getting uncomfortable all of a sudden." No, way... you can't deny if my sister is feeding you with her hand, C'mon Myra, make him eat every single dish again. " Viren said.Ron choked on his food and started coughing. Sujoy uncle rushed to him and patted his back and gave him water to drink but he kept coughing. He got up and rushed to a washroom." I think, I must go and see. " Raj got up abruptly and rushed after him before anyone could stop him." Hey wait, you have your food, I will see him. " Sujal said,
Raj's POVA few hours ago...The meeting was over soon as the client had agreed on the terms already so it was a matter of a few hours. So the deal was signed. But I also went out of the office with him, pretending that we still had some more discussion to do.I didn't want to go home, due to the sudden changes in my life. Everyone was hell-bent to push me in her direction while she was in love with Manik.Why doesn't my family understand that I was just a substitute husband for her? She was playing with my emotions earlier and chose him over me. Now that he has chosen someone else over her, she would understand my pain.But what was Ron doing?? Why was he so concerned about her?? Didn't he know that she was flirting both with me and Manik at the same time??Why is he taking her side and why the hell did he say that he could have married her??Maybe it is not a big deal for him as he is a playboy himself and does the same. So he is not so bothered by that fact.It may not be an issue
Raj's POVThe whole day these thoughts kept tormenting me. My family kept calling me on my phone but I put it on silent. As it is I was too far off from my place, I was not even sure if my phone was reachable or not.I knew that, I was supposed to go to her parents' house for dinner as per the ritual, but I didn't feel like going. Everyone would start teasing us there as well.Teasing gives pleasure when someone is happy but hurts like hell if they are pretending that everything is absolutely perfect between them.My phone rang again it was Viren this time, he must be expecting me there but I was in no mood to go there.Ron was calling me as well, but I ignored his call as well.Even after evaluating my feelings for her for about two hours, I was not very sure exactly what I felt for her.Of course, I was still very much attracted to her but I was upset with her for playing with my emotions.But she was my wife now.Wife... My wife.She was my life partner. Mine!!! Whether I liked it
