*Jiya Pov*
I woke up feeling a hand on my stomach, but the touch is also so light that I can move away easily and that’s what I did.
He is still sleeping so I chose to get ready and make some breakfast for us. I called Mom and Dad to ask how they are doing there.
After I got ready and also prepared breakfast, I walked inside the room and saw him still sleeping.
I stood beside him and cleared my throat for a few times, but he didn’t wake up. I slowly slapped on his shoulder, and he immediately sat upright but hissed within seconds.
Then I glanced at the wound and saw the bandaging or shall I say trial of bandaging with loads of cotton and no proper covering at all.
And now he is in pain thanks to the abrupt getting up. What should I do? I reckoned frowning and finally decided.
“Come with me.” I said, and he followed me calmly.
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“Finally!” I mumbled, walking outside the hospital.Now I am completely fine and the doctor said I am good, but just need to continue taking few tablets.I am happy now, but I don’t have anything to blackmail her. I know it is wrong, but at least she is having complete food at all times during this past week.I walked back to our flat and made a decision to rest a little before she returns from the office. From tomorrow onwards, I have to go back to the office and for the first time in my life, I don’t want to.I woke up hearing the front door opening. I sat up and yawned, looking at the time, and heard her speaking to someone.“Raj! I was busy, and that is why I didn’t pick your call.” She said, and I frowned.Why am I frowning? That is what it is going to be right. She is going to meet an amazing guy an
*Jiya Pov*“Five months two weeks.” I continued to chant staring at his back.“Why are you saying that repeatedly?" He asked turning around.“Look at what you are doing.” I replied scolding him, and he turned chuckling.“This is not driving a car, Jiya. This is just cooking.” He said.“And in cooking the whole kitchen can be burned.” I said, rolling my eyes and continued to chant the time left for him to leave.He is really making me mad every second being the thoughtful guy which I never saw even while dating him or even after marrying him.He always used to say ‘Don’t cry at the silliest things.’ But now all he has to say is ‘Cry Jiya’. I shook my head, frowning and scolded the day.Why it should be Saturday and not some other day? He suddenly decided to cook for us
*Jiya Pov*I slowly opened my eyes and continued to blink until I got adjusted to the light coming from the window.I immediately closed my eyes, feeling a severe headache on its way. I tried to get up, but felt locked and couldn’t even move.Then I moved my face to see his sleeping face, and he is snoring too. I am still sleeping on him? I thought and attempted to remove his hand, which is holding me to him tightly.“Ajay!” I whispered, shaking him.“Hmm...” He mumbled but didn’t wake up.“Ajay!” I said again and this time he opened his eyes frowning.“Did you call me by my name?” he asked after a few minutes.“Yes! You said to do it in the house right.” I replied, and he nodded.“Look into my eyes.” He suddenly said.“What?” I a
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“Ajay! Wake up.” I felt someone shaking me, and I smiled hearing my name in her voice.“What is it, Jiya?” I asked, turning to the other side holding her hand and started drifting off into sleep.“We are getting late for office.” She replied.“We will go late.” I mumbled and started pulling her on the bed still closing my eyes.“No! You already took so many leaves. Now get up.” She said scolding and even hit on my shoulder.“Poor me.” I said getting up and yawned.“You are looking beautiful.” I said after few minutes staring only at her.“What? A normal dress which I wore many times already?” She asked putting her ear rings.“I am not talking about the dress. I am just talking about the way you are getting ready. The way
*Jiya Pov*“Wake up!” I said, shaking him again today.“Today is Saturday, Jiya.” He mumbled turning away.“Oh!” I mumbled back realizing that he is right.“Yeah, oh! Now come and sleep.” He said, pulling the hand, I placed on his shoulder to wake him up.In two seconds, I am lying before him, and he is hugging me from behind. I gulped and was trying to remove his hands, which he did immediately.“At least have some breakfast and sleep.” I said turning around.He opened his eyes and looked at me. He placed his hand on my palm and kissed it before getting up.“What is special for breakfast?” he asked yawning.“How can I know? You are the one who is preparing it.” I replied shrugging.“What?” he asked, completely shocked.
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“Are you ready?” She asked for the tenth time.“Coming, madam!” I replied, walking outside the room.“What is this Ajay? This is a very bad habit of yours. You never went this late when we are in Palghar.” She said frowning.“You don’t have any problem in talking about the past?” I asked her surprised.“What should I do? Shall I teleport myself back into the past and change it?” She asked, raising her eyebrow locking the house door.“Well...” I trailed off.“That’s right! I can’t do that, and I think if I talk it out like not giving much importance to it, then it will not matter anything to me.” She said.“So the past doesn’t matter to you at all.” I said driving us.“No!” she said, and I ti
*Jiya Pov*“Jiya! Sit beside me.” Someone said.“No! Sit beside me.” Someone else said.“Actually, I will sit here.” I said, sitting beside Ajay, who is sitting at the end seat.They all nodded and settled themselves while Lily sat beside me. I gave her a slight smile and leaned on Ajay.“Why didn’t you sit with them? I really thought you would.” Ajay mumbled in my ear.“Well, just because I am talking to them nicely doesn’t mean I want to form the perfect bond with them. I am just being nice to them and want to stay as colleagues only.” I mumbled back.“But you used to generally make friends with everyone you meet.” He said and held my hand.“I know and it will take some more time.” I mumbled, and he nodded but hasn’t left my hand.&ldq
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“Happy second anniversary.” I whispered in her ear and kissed her cheek.She immediately opened her eyes and asked, “What?”“Today is our second-year anniversary.” I replied.“Oh!” She mumbled and added, “I don’t remember at all but how can you remember it. You forgot the first time right?”“I didn’t! I just acted as I forgot, but I didn’t forget it at all.” I replied and turned around to face me within a second.“You are really a great actor.” She said, and I flinched turning away.“Happy second anniversary.” She whispered, placing her hand around me, and I smiled patting it.“Now go to sleep. We have so much to do tomorrow.” I said, looking at the clock that it is past five minutes to twelve.&l
*Ajay Mehra Pov*I walked inside the house slowly to give her a surprise visit after returning from Ahmadabad earlier than what I told her.I held the best sweet in Kolkata safely in my hand and walked inside with faint steps not making any sound. This became her favorite from the time we have been living here taking care of the branch in this city.“Jiya!” I called her not finding her anywhere.I placed the sweets on the table properly not to let the sweet juice in them come outside and started searching for her.I opened the door of our bedroom and saw it empty. I searched everywhere and rubbed my forehead.Where did she go? She took one-week leave from office already right because of the bug when I was in Ahmadabad.“Jiya.” I shouted again and then, I heard the faint sobs.I rushed inside our room and then heard from the wa
*Ajay Mehra Pov*I waited for her to say something else but she didn’t. I took a deep breath and started turning the knob, but stopped hearing her call me again “Ajay!”“What is it Jiya?” I asked her closing my eyes.“Don’t leave me!” she replied in a whisper, and I can’t believe I even heard her.“What?” I asked her in shock losing the grip on my bag but didn’t turn back.“Don’t leave me, Ajay.” she said, and I turned back rushing towards her.She is still sitting on the couch and stared at me when I stood completely near her. My hands shook, but I made them hold her face properly.“Why?” I asked her bending to be on her eye level taking a deep breath.“I love you.” she replied, and I saw tears forming in her eyes.“Yo
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“I need to tell you something.” Jiya said when I lay on our bed.“What is it?” I asked her frowning.“I am dating someone.” She replied, and I looked at her wide eyed.I took a deep breath and asked, “From when?”“From two weeks.” She replied.“But you are still my wife right? Why are you dating already and whom are you dating?” I asked her not at all believing it, but it was hurting.“We are just talking to each other for now, but will go on a real date soon. I know I am still your wife, but you said you will give me whatever I want right?” She asked staring at me in blank expression.“Right! But there are still two more weeks for the time to end. So please don’t do this.” I said pulling her in my arms.“Why?&rdqu
*Jiya Pov*“Oh my god! I can’t laugh anymore.” I said, clutching my stomach hearing the fight between Aunty and Uncle from past half an hour.“I am bored.” Ajay said, rolling his eyes.“Do you know Uncle lied to me saying he is the most helpful husband. I really thought he was.” I said, and Aunty shook her head.“Yeah! He is most helpful in not helping at all.” she said, and I chuckled.“I had so much fun these two days. You both are amazing.” I said, getting up and hugged them both.“You are also amazing Dau... person.” Aunty said, and I nodded frowning.We left the house and reached ours. When we entered, I saw that I have a duty to clean the house today as it is Sunday.I started cleaning while he helped me a little. When everything is over, we had dinner, and I sat on t
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“Ajay!” She called when I am reading some file regarding the meeting we will have tomorrow.“Hmm.” I said not looking at her.“Ajay!” She called again.“What is it, Jiya?” I asked her staring at the file and leaned back to get comfortable on the couch.“Look at me.” She replied.“Tell me what is it?” I asked her looking at an important point.“Fine! You will sleep today on that couch.” She replied and then I heard the door locking.I looked to see her nowhere, and then I saw the door of our room is locked. I sighed and continued to study the file.“You are so busy.” I heard her voice very near after a few minutes, and I got startled.I glanced up to see her sitting beside me. I patted my back and said, “This
*Jiya Pov*“God! Save me.” I shouted, holding my head.“Don’t shout, Jiya.” He said, groaning beside me.“This is all because of you.” I said hitting his shoulder.“How is it my fault?” he asked, holding his head.“Who asked you to buy me ice cream at lunch and then at a movie theatre and then at the park and then at the dinner? And to top off that we stayed under the fake rain.” I replied sniffing.“Well, you made me eat that while you are doing the same, so the blame doesn’t go only on me. We just got flu, so deal with it.” He said, and I closed my eyes with a feel to knock his head with mine.“Let’s drink some milk and take some tablet.” I said getting down.“I am feeling dizzy.” I said, holding the bed.“Let’s
*Ajay Mehra Pov*“Happy second anniversary.” I whispered in her ear and kissed her cheek.She immediately opened her eyes and asked, “What?”“Today is our second-year anniversary.” I replied.“Oh!” She mumbled and added, “I don’t remember at all but how can you remember it.
