While taking a shower, memories from last night swam through her mind. Suddenly, one thought struck her mind.Why was he angry at her? When he isn’t Anna? Anger stays on his nose. She thought about twisting her lips as she washed her hair. I don’t know how I fell in love with him. Perhaps I did not see his anger at that time. Yes, it is. She shrugged her shoulders, talking to herself. She finished her bath and walked out.Her nipples were sore and looked bruised; she didn’t know why that was. Even she felt a few bites here and there on her body. Ignoring the little ache in her body, she walked up to the cupboard.She ruffled through her clothes to get the clothes when her eyes landed on her sari collection. How did I manage in sari yesterday, I only know, and how did he behave? So stubborn and egoistic... She couldn’t stop cursing him as she pulled out a set of clothes to wear to college. God!! She still feels her head dizzy. as she holds her head, what the hell did I drink yesterday
"What’s my fault? I said the truth. What's yours is mine, and what’s mine is also yours." She gave him back so innocently.‘It is...!'’ He was in a rage after hearing her claims.His gaze lingered on her shivering lips, and he looked into her eyes, giving her clear hints about his claims.She blushed and closed her eyes in complete submission. He was about to cover her mouth with his when suddenly the intercom buzzed, breaking their moment.He made a disgusting face, jerking her away so rudely that she landed straight on the floor with a painful cry.He gave her a look as if saying; you deserve it, before attending to the receiver. "How dare you!" She got up, rubbing her hip. “How could you push me like that? You monster..."His anger was only raised by hearing her words, "Mind your tongue...or else...""Or else what will you do, monster?"He angrily marched to her, jerking her closer, saying, "First of all, you lured me with those cheap acts of yours, and then you called me names.'"
Neil was lost in the words of his father...LOVE...?Is that really what existed between both? He questioned himself. Although she claims to love him always but how much truth lies in her words, he never knew. He sighed, pushing all thoughts away as he walked up to her.Anna looked on curiously as he pulled out the lunch box she had brought for the three of them. She twisted her lips, realising it was his entire fault. ‘He always misunderstood me, argued, and put all the blame on me.’ She was talking to herself, and Neil was listening to her. ‘Done!!?’ He called out, taking her attention. Now let’s have lunch. I have to attend a meeting after this.“Then go and do your meetings; why are you even bothering to feed me?" She snapped in anger.That’s it. He got up abruptly in rage, making her startled, and was ready to walk out.‘Neil, she gasped, as she had not expected him to react to her comment like that.‘Please stop! I am sorry!’ She blurted it out immediately, stopping him in his t
As he stepped into his mansion, his feet halted, facing the deadly silence in an otherwise buzzing mansion.His heart skipped a beat while he thought about all sorts of bad things. He immediately rushed inside to spot John walking out of the kitchen.‘Where is everyone, John?"" "Neil dear, you come back!? Everyone has gone to the hospital." He informed."Hospital!? why?" He was shocked to get such information."It’s Anna...her..."He felt out of breath hearing her name: "What happened to Anna?" He was already rushing away. "Which hospital!?" “#### Hospital...”But Neil, dear listen, it’s not Anna...."But Neil was already running out of the room without listening to him.The thought of something bad happening to his crazy wife left him breathless. He felt his life was going away from him.….Few days ago...Anna couldn’t simply come to any conclusion after their heated argument. What is wrong with her or with him? How could he always misunderstand her? She was blank after thinking s
Neil rushed into the hospital frantically. He asked the receptionist for the name Oberoi.‘But sir, there are no such patients with this name.’‘Check again; it is Mrs. Anna Neil Oberoi.’‘Sorry, sir, but there are none...’ She spoke after checking. ‘Uh, yes, sir, I think you are talking about your mother-in-law then. The room number is 459, on the second floor, first corridor.’My mother-in-law?"‘Yes, sir, Mrs. Malhotra had just gone through some operations two days ago and has been admitted here.’ She informed him, knowing well about Oberois, who has been one of the trustees of the hospital.Confused Neil made his way to Room No. 459 He halted at the door, hearing some voices. As the door was ajar, he could see his wife and her mother inside, and he ended up hearing their half-talks.He became stupefied after hearing his wife’s positive talk about him and Love.Suddenly, Anna walked out and bumped into him. She was taken aback to find him there. She had not expected him to be there
‘I never lied to you about anything, whether you want to believe it or not. I can’t force you with this... It’s your decision.’ Anna said softly.Again, he didn’t like her words, but he continued to listen to her patiently.‘My friends always knew about my relationship, and they were behind me to help with good intentions.’ ‘However, I denied getting any help of that sort. I completely dislike the fact of getting someone's love by any means.’He jerked his head up, hearing her use that word, which he had used to blame her for. He felt ashamed and instantly bent his head down.‘If love has to happen to someone, it just happens. We don’t need to do anything to make any person fall in love.’‘God has even made the couples in heaven only. Whoever is destined to meet, they will surely.’ ‘And if my love is true and destined, it will surely come to me. I believe in these things, so I don’t need to do anything for them.’ ‘I could just do one thing to let you know about my feelings and showe
‘Stupid Anna, why wouldn’t he be there when it is his room?’ She cursed herself and wanted to hide away in the bathroom again. She knew he wouldn’t approve of her walking out like this without clothes. He would again think of her doing any stunt to attract his attention.But watching him like this, she couldn’t turn around and go. Drops of sweat were still clinging to his hair, his forehead, his neck, and his whole He looks too alluring. She was hopelessly in love with him, and seeing him like this bred her desire for him.He could make her wet just by looking at his chiselled features and muscular body. Her eyes wandered relentlessly over his body.He suddenly felt her piercing gaze over him and turned briskly, only to notice her standing at the washroom door, clad in just a tinny towel.However she tried, she couldn’t move her gaze away from him, as if hypnotized by him. He couldn’t remove his gaze either from alluring her. Her wet hair, her scent, her cleavage, which was popping up
It took a moment for him to realize her words. As soon as it sank into him, he pulled her apart in a jerk. ‘What? What did you just say?’‘You did this with me... Now I will be pregnant, won’t I? Why are you asking?’ She blasted him with her innocence.And I was thinking she felt bad for me touching her. He thought while his frustration was building inAfter a moment of calming himself, he turned to her and held her gently, saying, Anna, look at me."She looked at him with her wet, innocent eyes, still hiccupping.‘You won’t get pregnant. Trust me… I didn’t fall in love with you to make me pregnant.’"Then what was that all about?" she asked in a low whisper, wiping away her eyes...somewhere, relieved to hear him. ‘Yes, we shared moments out of love, but it was not proper... When a couple does it whole, taking it to the final destination, then it’s called proper lovemaking, and then you will get pregnant.’ He found no other way to explain her."I don't want to be pregnant." She insta
Anna reached upstairs to their room. She took out her clothes and made her way inside the bathroom. As soon as she opened the door, an intoxicating smell reached her nostrils making her go dizzy for a moment with the essence. As she went further in, the alluring site welcomed her. The whole room was decorated beautifully with candles and roses, her essentials were kept at side properly with some massage oils and ubtan… She was floored by the arrangements and instantly blushed realising it could be none other than her romantic husband’s planning. She closed the door without locking it as per her habit…some habits never change … she left a sigh of breath piling away the last piece of cloth from her body before stepping in the bathtub. She closed her eyes and relaxed her body, thinking about him…How she wished he would be here with her at the moment…she craved his touch so badly today. From the last few days he has been busy heavily looking after his wife. The thought itself pinched he
“won’t you say anything.” “What shall I say…? I was angry for a moment but now it was me and my deeds who caused you guys to take that step…” he said looking down at her. She nodded in no, feeling for him.“It was not entirely your fault Neil, you were lost in your nightmares grief that you threw out your frustration on me, and I am yours only that’s why you showed your right to me…”Her words made him skip a beat, “yes you are all mine. God’s gift for me, I am asking for sorry for last time from you, he hovers over cupping her face, because henceforth I promise to cherish you forever and ever, won’t give you a chance to complain…” He sealed her mouth with his promise.She felt blessed to have his love today as she reciprocated his kiss with more passion and love overflowing her being. She wanted to be his in all senses. As her mother made her understand a few things for taking their relationship to a new level, she was scared, shy, nervous and what not… overwhelmed with all feelings
Neil couldn’t contain the happiness of having his wife safe in his arms, after knowing the truth. For that moment he forgot everything and pulled her apart before crushing her lips with his. Anna was startled, so was Grandma, she turned her back to them.While Anna tried to struggle against his hard grip but he kissed her like crazy before pulling apart and next moment as if realising something he just rushed out of there.‘Grandma, Neil…’ Anna called out painfully only to have Grandma turned around hearing her sad voice.‘What happened?’ ‘Grandma, Neil just went away…’ Anna cried, as both ladies watched his car moving away from the place like wild wind. “What happened to him suddenly, let’s go dear, Don't know where he went suddenly, even after all this happened, I don’t know what happened now!?” Grandma was talking while Anna couldn’t register her words all the while only thinking about Neil.They followed his car which they had brought with the driver and found out soon that his
‘You can’t leave me.’ He was shaking her body vigorously to make her wake and come back to him. He still couldn’t believe that he lost her.Suddenly, Anna got up from her sleep and saw him all over her, shaking her body in his sleep. She was frightened, “Neil...Neil...come back to senses.” she patted his cheek, calling out to him. He got up at the start and soon realised that he was having a nightmare, next moment he hugged her tight, mumbling only this, “Anna, don’t leave me alone, don’t leave me alone.” “Neil relax, it’s only a dream…” she rubbed his back, cocooning him in her arms as he buried his face in the crook of her neck. Few tears rolled down his eyes, making her skin wet.‘Neil…’ she couldn’t bear to see him so broken, thereby she tried to pull apart but he wasn’t ready to let her go, ‘I won’t let you go Anna.’ ‘Nothing will happen to me when you are with me …relax, it’s only a dream.’ ‘I am with you, nothing will happen …’ she said soothed words in his ear as he held her
“It's been two years now I have been having those nightmares. Every night I have the same dream, I can't sleep properly because of them. Do you know who used to come in my dreams every night…”‘Who...!?’ She was so curious. Neel saw her cute face and couldn't stop admiring her, "That was you, Anna!" He cupped her face...‘I...how could I...that time we hadn't even met!’ She asked innocently.“Yeah, I know we didn't meet and that was only the thing Anna, which was troubling me. The girl has face of you, she used to come in my dreams and torture me always like I am some weak person and was getting beaten up by you.. Same dream every night, you and me...and our clothes were like royal people from the historical era.” He took the napkin to wipe her wet hair.“It is? then maybe it's like our previous birth.” She told me to get excited with the idea. “Even Grandma said the same thing but I don't believe in these things Anna...I don't think something like this could happen…” he said, thro
Next Day, He walked out of the bathroom getting ready for the bed and the sight before him made his heart twist in pain. Anna was sitting lost staring at the bonfire...and he saw her suddenly closing her eyes...she fell on the bed. ‘Anna…’ he shouted and rushed towards her. She half opened her eyes and saw his concern. ‘Are you fine love?’ He helped her get up and cupped her face.‘Hmm..just a little dizziness,’ she didn't know how suddenly her head felt heavy.Neel became more worried,"nothing to worry love, it's only because of the high doses of medicine. I will talk with Amy. Hmm .!?’Anna nodded and rested her head on his chest. He hugged her dearly, combing her hair. She parted after a while to look at his face. ‘Where are you lost!? What happened!?’‘I wish time would stop here forever…’ He mumbled looking into her brown eyes and pecked her forehead. She sighed and buried her face in the crook of his neck, feeling truly loved and cared for by him.....‘What nice weather, i
Next day, he met with Amy and other doctor’s team again, discussing the whole matter. ‘Do anything I want my Anna to get cured early.’‘I will do everything in my power Neel, I have discussed her case with other doctors as well. They have sent her medical reports abroad…doctors from there as well ready to help us.’Neel sighed, holding his head…he closed his eyes in pain.‘Relax buddy! We are trying everything…now just believe in God…’Neel nodded and asked him, ‘will you do one more favour for me!?’ ‘What??’ asked a confused Amy.‘Tell Grandma about this…just don’t disclose it to mom (Anna’s mother) don’t know how she will react.’ He knew his grandma could handle the truth as she had always been strong and brave.‘Alright, I will call after a while. You take care of Anna.’ He nodded and walked out with heavy feet.….At night, when he reached Oberon Mansion. He saw his Grandma ma waiting for him. Seeing her face he knew she got to know about Anna and Amy must have talked to her as
Both reached the temple in a few hours and prayed for other’s well being. ‘God, just keep my Neel and family happy and healthy, that’s all I want.’ Neel looked at her serene face while she was praying and smiled softly, I know what she might be asking for. He turned to the goddess statue and prayed, “keep her happy and healthy always. Just make her wishes come true. Also give me strength to say the truth to her. Keep us together always.”The priest came there and saw the couple, “take it son, god mother’s kumkum, put it in your wife’s vermilion. He handed it in Neel’s hand, and always applied it, God will keep you safe always and will keep you both together.’Neel took a pinch of saffron and looked at the Anna.She was looking at him with wet eyes, still unsure about his feelings. But he looked determined as he smeared the saffron in her partition, making her close her eyes. She felt a few drops fall on her nose and smiled remembering her mother’s words.Neel smiled affectionately a
At Night, He walked out of the shower & saw her sleeping at the study table itself. She was tired after a hectic day and studies that slept on the table itself.He moved near her, lost in her innocent beauty he bent down to her. He moved his face close to her & His wet hair touched her breaking her sleep.‘Neel you,’ she gave him a tired smile.‘let’s sleep’‘But Neel…’‘I said let’s go...do your studies tomorrow.’‘But, it has just one page remaining…’ she tried to argue as he caught her wrist pulling her up.‘Don’t make me culprit more, I have committed many crimes unknowingly.’ He said guilty.‘what are you saying…?’ Anna was confused when he heard him.“you have my promise…” He gave her an ultimatum and she has to agree.‘You have got my habit…’ she chuckled, lying down on the bed."Then, we are partners in marriage…” He gave her a wink while lying beside her.She cradle close to him, “now how are you feeling..” She checked his forehead and neck. ‘Never before better than this.”
