Do hafte!

Do hafte ho gaye, and he's still not talking to me

Hume toh yeh samj nahi aa raha ki inka gussa kahase bich Mai aaya

Gussa toh hum the na?

My train of thoughts was broke by a creaking sound of my door.

Lo aagaye ignore kumar!

Without sparing with a single glance he moved towards the wardrobe to grab a towel and headed straight to the bathroom

Hadh hai! Bure kaam karne ka soche ye aur gussa bhi ho yahi!! Aur manaye hum?!!

Bilkul nahi

I grabbed the comb from nearby dressing table and sat in front of the mirror combing my hair

He came back after about 5-10 minutes while I was still there getting ready for the day.

He stopped in front of the mirror to grab his watch from a distance as if I am some kind of plaque

Having enough of his childishness
"Zyada mat kariye aap Rudra!!" I snapped at his behaviour

He stopped wearing his watch midway and looked at me down as I was sitting on the chair

"Hume maaf kar dijiye Rajkumari, aapko kahi lagi toh nahi??" His mocking tone just added fuel to my anger and I stood up in a hurry to which I lost my balance but a pair of hands were fast enough to steady me

I'm staring into his brown orbs after so long. I could feel my inner turmoil settling down as I continued to be lost in his stare

I know what my father did was wrong . I accept his mistake which is why I have to accept Rudra's mistake as well. I can never choose between my married life and my parents. That's one of the thing my mother told me before vidai.

I clearly remember her words "bacche, abhi yahi apka Ghar hai. Yahase kabhi naraz hoke humare pass mat anaa. Humesha khush raho uske saath. Shaadi bohot keemti rishta hai. Aur duniya kitne bhi aage kyu na badh jaae uski dor ek aurat ko zyada thami rakhni padti hai." She said while lovingly patting my head

He left me with a jerk and stood at a distance from me
"Maaf kijiyega Rajkumari, humne aapko chua, kisi ne dekha toh nahi?! Pata nahi aur kitne log hire kiye hai apke baba ne humpe Nazar rakhne ke liye!!" He said again mocking me.

At this point my eyes had swelled up. This was not a joke to me. It never was.

"Bas kijiye Rudra, agar aap vaha jaate hi nahi toh ye sab hota hi nahi!!" I shouted. It was impossible for me maintain a low decibel while talking to him about this matter

"Hum sau baar bata chuke hai aapko, Usne hume call karke natak kiya ki vo khatre mai hai, hum ek dost ki madat karne ke iraade se gaye se sirf. Humari bich Jo bhi tha vo iss shaadi se pehele tha. Humne aape aise rok thok lagayi hoti toh aap toh hume maar hi daalti. Humne apko dhoka nahi diya. Dhoka aapne Diya hai, humare piche humare hi log lagwaye" he vented out all his anger bottled up in his mind for past two weeks

"Hum maafi nahi mangenge aapse Rudra, kyuki galti aapki bhi thi!" I said while looking at his eyes

He scoffed and rolled his eyes and was about to leave

"But" my voice stopped him in mid track

"Galti aapki bhi thi aur humari bhi. Aapka vaha jana bhi galat tha. You could've fought with me, cleared your doubts but you choosed your friend over me. Galti humare baba ki bhi thi. I'm not trying to defend him. But I can make sure he stops feeling bad about this relationship by giving it a chance." I said

I could feel his gaze a little softening at my words

I gathered my courage and took a step towards his and took both of his hand in mine

"Hum jaante hai apko bura laga hai, magar he's a father, aap jab baba banenge na Rudraksh tab shyd aap unko samj jaae" I said

I started at him and suddenly he started walking towards me.

My feets betrayed me by staying glued to the floor.

My eyes widened when I felt him closing the distance between our faces to which I held his arms instinctively

"Ye aap kya kar rahe hai?" My voice hushed and my breathe panicked

"Abhi toh aapne kaha, ki hum papa banenge tab samjhenge"

My cheeks turned red and I felt a sudden rush of blood throughout my body listening to his words

"Humara vo matlab nahi tha"

"Humne toh vahi matlab liya"

He gently pushed me on the bed and laid on the top of me gently managing his weight to not crush me under his demonic physique

His one hand gently clasped mine on the sheets and held it firmly.

Feeling dizzy at the closeness, my eyes gave up and shut themselves tight. My breathe so fast as if I was running a marathon. My hormones all over the place.

Messed up. My mind was messed up for him

I felt a tingling sensation of his fingers on my face.

Gulping hard in an attempt to provide some kind of wetness to my dried up throat, I felt his finger travel down my face and stop at my lips

Caressing my lips softly, I heard his manly voice

"I'm really sorry, Samaira"

Should I really forgive him? It's like my body was under his control right now

I felt him nearing my lips and my soul panicked and turned my head to the other side

"Are you uncomfortable?" I heard him ask immediately to which I instantly turned my head to look at him

"Nahi Nahi, vo hum--hum"

He caressed my face gently "calm down"

"Humne kabhi kuch aisa-- aisa nhi kiya. Kuch galat kardiya toh?" I said while looking at him

He looked at me with some kind of intense emotion in his eyes.

My eyes were then blessed with his smile. In that moment I realised

Hume pasand toh hai ye thode thode

He leaned down and I closed my eyes to welcome the feeling and I felt his soft lips pressed around my forehead

Involuntarily a smile adorned my face.

Opening my eyes to stare up at his, I felt extremely happy at his next words

"Let's give us a chance, little dove. Please. No fights. No misunderstandings. Just us"
