Mihir's POV "Bring her to my cabin." Gautam uncle said with a smile. "Who? Me??" I asked. "Who else? You want me to call another man to carry your wife?" He glared at me. Shit!! "No! Of course not, sir... uncle... I mean, Dad. I meant to say that you can carry her there." I said getting "What?? Don't tell me you think she is too heavy for you to carry. Do some exercise, weight training... increase your stamina. She is... " " No, not at all, she is as light as a feather. I said so as you are here, and it feels awkward to carry her like this in your presence." I said, my face, especially my ears, getting hot. "What kind of a man are you? I would have given my tooth or nail for such a chance to carry Maurvi 28 years ago... Here, I am asking you to do it, and you want me to do it?? I can carry her easily, but I have been carrying her since she was born; it's your chance now. Follow me." He said and winked at me.Strange man!! Thank god, he didn't punch me. I went after him as he
Mihir's POV I woke up to the soft light of dawn filtering through the curtains. For a moment, I was disoriented, unsure of where I was. Then I felt her, Tami, still pressed against me, her warmth enveloping me. Her arm was draped over my torso, our legs intertwined. I glanced down at her, her face so serene in sleep. She looked so delicate, almost ethereal, with her dark hair splayed across the pillow and her long, thick eyelashes resting softly on her cheeks.My heart skipped a beat as I took in the sight of her so close to me. There was a strange sensation in my chest, a mixture of comfort and an electric thrill that I couldn't quite place. It was a feeling I had never experienced, not even with Gauravi. It was disconcerting yet somehow soothing, a paradox of emotions that left me both at ease and on edge.As if sensing my gaze, Tami stirred, her eyelashes fluttering as she slowly woke up. She blinked a few times, her eyes adjusting to the light, and then she looked up at me. For a
Mihir's POV Her words hung in the air between us, heavy with meaning. I felt a lump in my throat, unsure of how to respond. She was offering me her heart, and I didn't know if I was ready to accept it. Not when I was still grappling with my own feelings."I... I appreciate that, Tami," I said finally, my voice thick with emotion. " I like you. It's just... it's complicated."She smiled a small, sad smile that tugged at my heart. "I know. It's ok... maybe we can figure it out together? Or we can be just friends, " she said. I looked at her, really looked at her, and saw the hope in her eyes. She was offering me a chance, a chance to move forward, to find something real between us. And despite my confusion, despite the remnants of my feelings for Gauravi, I found myself wanting to take that chance."Yeah," I said, taking a step closer to her. "Maybe we can," I said Tami smiled, a small, shy smile that made my heart skip a beat. She smiled again, brighter this time, and it felt like t
Mihir's POV Tami took a deep breath, trying to stay calm. "Mihir, you're letting your anger control you. Gaurvi and Shlok's actions hurt you, I understand that. But taking it out on me isn't fair.""Fair? Do you think this is about being fair? But why would it bother you? Whatever they did was good for you, at least. I’m stuck in a marriage I never wanted because of their selfishness! In fact, both you and your sister are selfish. "Her eyes filled with tears, but she held her ground. "I never wanted to be a replacement, Mihir. But I've tried to make this work. For us. For your father. I thought we were making progress."Shit!! I didn't want to hurt her, I hated to see tears in her big beautiful eyes. I sighed, running a hand through my hair. " Well, Maybe I was wrong. Maybe this was a mistake." I wanted to apologize to her but could not frame the sentence with the right words. I should not have expected her not to talk to her sister and that Shlok were her family.The hurt in her
Mihir's POV" Bhai, don't expect Tami to break her relationship with her sister or I will choose her and Ron over you. He is right, Manik bhai did the same thing and we supported him. Don't expect Tami to do what we didn't. She thinks her sister is better off with Shlok as she loves him and is pregnant with his child. How can you still want Gaurvi?? You have hurt Tami. Let me go and find her. " " I don't want Gaurvi, I don't want anything to do with her, I just want to avoid her. Is that a big issue? " " Yes it is, she is not just your ex, she is your sister-in-law as well, Mihir. How can you expect Gautam uncle to choose one of his daughters or avoid Gaurvi, just because you are not comfortable around her? How can you expect Tami to forget the relationship she had shared with her elder sister? Well, the bottom line is that I support Shlok and Gaurvi, now break your relationship with me if you can but mind it, your sister will also break her relationship with you. " Ron said to me
Mihir's POV " Have it, you must be hungry. " Tami said and Mahi nodded. " Wow!! I love Khakhras as well as Mohan Thal. " Mahi said eating them Ron tried to take a bite but she refused to share. Ron smiled at her lovingly. I was astonished to see how he was looking at her with so much love. I envied my sister, no one had ever looked at me like that, not even Gaurvi when we were in a relationship. And Tami... I averted my eyes from them and looked at the girl whom I claimed to love. She was also looking at them with a faint smile. But the smile didn't reach her eyes. Well, I don't know if she had ever looked at me like that or not but ever since I raised this issue of divorce, I haven't seen her even looking at me. And when she did today, I could see only tears. Shit!! " Tami, I want that too. " I said because I wanted to talk to her. Tami averted her eyes too and served some for Ron and me as well. " I am sorry, I didn't mean to... " I said. But she just nodded and turned bac
Mihir's POV We stepped aside and went to a secluded place, I took a deep breath. "I'm sorry, Tami. I let my emotions get the better of me. Seeing Gaurvi and Shlok brought back a lot of pain, but that doesn’t excuse how I treated you. But you got me wrong, I realized my mistake immediately and when I said, it was a mistake, I meant to say that it was a mistake, that I expected you to break ties with them. "She looked at me, her eyes filled with hurt. "Mihir, I’ve tried to be patient and understanding. But I can't keep living in the shadow of your past. I know you love her, but she doesn't, she will not come back to you.""I know," "You have to let go of the past. If you still want the divorce, I’ll sign the papers and convince your Dad, he will not say anything to you." She said."" No, I will try," I said,She looked at me and nodded, I felt as if a weight lifted off my shoulders. The phone started ringing and I came out of my thoughts. I looked at the phone and took the call and
Tami's POV Dad was surprised to see them in their cabin, he asked them, " It is pleasant to see both of you, but is everything alright? I mean, you came to me, all of a sudden? " Dad asked. " Are you here for the ultrasound? " Mom asked. " Oh, no, Aunty. We were about to go and consult the gynecologist before the first scan but we thought of meeting you first to make a good diet chart for her as her food cravings are very weird and I want to know what she can eat and what is to be avoided in the first trimester of pregnancy. We went to your cabin but we got to know that you were here so we came here. " Ron Jiju said to Mom. " Oh, sure beta, I will give you a detailed diet chart, and it is natural to have food cravings, but we need to watch the calories and nutrients. The food should be nutritious. Well, you have Tami now, she is good at making street food healthy and tasty, as it is I am making such food for Mehul Bhai." Mom said. " Of course, Mahi, please do not hesitate to tell
