Why can't you just go and grab the damn bag and come off” Anjali asked for the third timeNot that she did not want to go but she hated the drama that would unfold there, especially since she had already witnessed the father-son fight and to avoid that she was trying to convince her husband who was by now used to the drama “Aye!

AUTHOR's POVThe next day seemed to rise faster than they even imagined, Anjali was the first one to rise but she did not move from the mattress, she rolled and looked at her husband sleeping peacefully.Since they slept on the terrace, the morning ray’s glow seemed more precious as it hit her husband’s face, making his pretty features highlighted.All of sudden Anjali liked the way it sounded, him as her husband just like yesterday how Arun felt. Though she had no idea Arun liked it too.Arun was someone who entered her life all of a sudden, Turning her life completely upside down.
