*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*“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*“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
*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 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
I continued to stare at the woman sitting in front of me hoping she will glance at me at least once and not at our wedding photo which she is holding after taking it from my table.I cleared my throat and calmly asked, "She tried to take her life just because she got betrayed by her love. But you didn't let one single tear fall from your eyes and didn't ask me any questions, even after knowing that I betrayed you. Why?"I patiently waited for her answer which I wanted to find out for a few days very eagerly."Her love is pure. But..." She just trailed off."But?" I stressed leaning forward, placing my elbows on the table."But mine is.... just an act." she said the last words looking
*Jiya Pov*"Ms.Sarin! " I heard someone calling and looked up to see the finance department manager."Yes, sir? " I asked politely."Err... Boss is asking for you." He replied."Ok! " I said, nodding and he left actually rushed away.I shook my head and then glanced at the phone through which he could have called me and not by some superior to me.I locked the computer and got up holding the notepad and pen. Walking towards his cabin, I knocked on his door and entered when asked me to 'come in'."Mr.Mehra!" I said when he continued to work on his system.
*Jiya Pov*I woke up hearing the shouts rather than my alarm. Anyway, it's just ten-minute difference, and I can use the extra minutes.I went inside the washroom and looked at my reflection. Those cold eyes staring back at me, which stare everyone throughout the day for the past few months."You are nothing but a fool, Jiya." I said to myself and then glanced at the blade when I heard more shouting's."No! You are strong." I said, turning away and started getting ready for the day.When I walked outside my tiny room, I saw my Mom shouting at my Dad in the living room cum dining regarding of course my brother.I sat
#### PAST WILL BE IN ITALIC FONT AND THE PRESENT WILL BE IN NORMAL FONT####--------------------------------------------------------------------*Jiya Pov*'Don't do this' feeling the conscious telling me I stopped the blade from cutting the nerve and placed the hand under water."You left me B. So don't come into my mind like this every time." I said angrily."You too thought to do the same right? Then why are stopping me?" I shouted, closing my eyes."He had hurt me B, and you were not there to protect me." I said, kneeling down on the floor and took the f

*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. 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
*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*“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
