Vikram sighed a breath of relief when he saw his wife swallow the pill.He didn't want her to be pregnant,not yet.He picked his wife bridal style, kissing her mouth as he made her lay down.Keerthi was upset. She wanted to talk to her husband."Wait", Keerthi said when her husband deepened the kiss."What is it?"Keerthi took a deep breath, pulling away.At times,she genuinely didn't understand her husband. Did he really not know that she was upset or he just didn't care?She would succumb to his affection if he continued to kiss her. She didn't like the idea of having sex with him when she was upset with him.It seemed wrong."What's wrong with you?",Vikram frowned."I want to talk.""Can't it wait until after we made love?",Vikram kissed his wife's neck."We already did,a few hours ago", Keerthi reminded him, clenching her thighs, suppressing a moan. She hated her body.How dare it become wet for him when he upset her."What is it?",he placed an arm around his wife's waist.Keerthi
Keerthi swung her legs in boredom as she rotated her head.It had been sometime her husband had left for his meeting.She lied down on the bed,staring at the ceiling. She was tempted to go to the beach.It was long since they had reached Mumbai and Vikram left for work.Though she wanted to go to the beach ,her husband left for work after a ,"Don't go out alone. It's not safe", speech.She wanted to beat him up.He shushed her when she asked him to book separate flights for them,his to Mumbai and her's to Delhi.He had only said a "Shut up. I know what I am doing."She had only rolled her eyes then.She made a call to her mother, updating her of her whereabouts and briefing about the places they visited.Amritha Verma smiled as she spoke to get daughter. She seemed happy."I am so bored", Keerthi stared at the wall in front of her,"I feel like I'm just in hotel rooms the last few days."Amritha laughed,shaking her head."When are you returning?"Keerthi shrugged,though her mother could
Keerthi hesitantly placed a hand on her husband's shoulder.He just stared into space,frowning."Any problem?"Vikram sighed, pulling his wife into his lap,nuzzling her neck. He took a deep breath."What to do you think of shifting to Mumbai?"Keerthi frowned,her hand in her husband's mane,"What?""Yeah. I think it's better to have a closer observation on the operations.""Oh."Keerthi didn't like the idea."Yeah. How about next month?"Keerthi was getting irritated,she had a stable job in Delhi. Her husband was talking about shifting,not just a few days."You could just go there once in a month?", Keerthi offered. The idea of shifting didn't sit well with her.She wanted to be closer to her parents.And her husband had been travelling to Mumbai once in a month for the last couple of months."It's not working. There are loopholes. It needs closer monitoring.""I.. I don't know",she muttered."Have an opinion",Vikram gave his wife a sharp look.Keerthi pressed her lips thin,"My opinion
Keerthi winced as she tried to sit in a comfortable position,as she typed an e-mail to apply for her transfer.Her back hurt a lot.She rubbed a hand on her back,trying to get some relief,as she shut her laptop,ready to go home, wincing when she moved her elbows while driving.Vikram came home to see his wife doing their laundry. He gave her a quick kiss, before he went to freshen up.Keerthi smiled, continuing her work.Vikram wrapped his hands around his wife's waist,kissing the base of her neck,freshly showered."I am working Vikram", Keerthi said quietly,angling herself so her back didn't hurt,when her husband's hand disappeared inside her top.Vikram turned his wife around,so they were facing each other. He placed a kiss on her jaw,"This one's more important.""You just came home.""So?",Vikram slipped his wife's bra down,pinching her nipple lightly.Keerthi moaned,her hands going around her husband's neck.She winced when her husband held her waist."Let's go have dinner",she co
"Does it hurt too much?"Rhetorical question. Keerthi would get scolded either way,she knew it."Um.""Go to sleep. Maybe it'll be better in the morning.""Yeah.Ouch", Keerthi cried when she put some pressure on her hips.Vikram swallowed,"I think we should go to the hospital."Keerthi's side throbbed in pain,tears welling her eyes. Did she really break something?"It's fine", Keerthi said hesitantly. She wasn't sure anymore. A simple bruise didn't hurt that much,surely."Come on",Vikram picked his wife in his arms.Keerthi smiled when her husband took her hand in his, kissing the back of it and released it,as he shifted the gear."There was really no need",Keerthi rolled her eyes when they were in the hospital premises."Nothing wrong in confirming",Vikram shrugged,parking the car."Sure", Keerthi mumbled under her breath."Why are you flinching repeatedly then?",Vikram quirked a brow,when his wife joined him.Keerthi gave her husband a flat look,"I have fun. That's why.""You can ha
"No. Go away", Keerthi grumbled when someone shook her."Ouch",she glared at her husband when he bit her lip."I want to sleep Vikram",she turned to the other side.Keerthi screeched in frustration when he kept poking her,"What?""Take your medicines. You can sleep after that.""I literally just closed me eyes", Keerthi grumbled, sitting up, blinking her eyes as she came face to face with her husband in their bedroom.Vikram laughed,"It's after two in the noon.""What?", Keerthi shrieked,"Half of my birthday is gone."Vikram laughed,"Get up. You can eat something."Keerthi sat up,relieved that her pain came down a bit,though it still throbbed a bit.She felt sad when she glanced at her mobile,her mother's missed call staring at her.She missed her parents."Yeah",she cleared her throat.Vikram glanced at his wife,giving her a kiss on her mouth,"Happy birthday, Love."Keerthi was surprised at the endearment,her insides warming,"Thank you",she placed a kiss on her husband's lips,wincing
Amritha Verma was pleasantly surprised when she saw her daughter and son in law at her doorstep. She expected her daughter to be busy, since she hadn't attended to her calls.She smiled when her daughter threw her arms around her."Happy birthday",she kissed her daughter's head.Keerthi's eyes watered unexpectedly. She swallowed the lump in her throat, smiling through tears,"Thanks Ma."Keerthi pulled her husband inside with her,"Hi dad.""Keerthi",Arvind Verma returned his daughter's hug,"What a pleasant surprise",he kissed her head,"Happy birthday.""Thanks dad",she smiled.Arvind Verma shook hands with his son in law, inviting him into their house.Vikram smiled politely,taking a seat.Keerthi squeezed her husband's hand, leaving him with her father as she accompanied her mother into the kitchen.Keerthi winced when she jumped on to the kitchen counter."What happened?"Amritha frowned.Keerthi played innocent,"What happened?"Amritha walked to her daughter,"Do you have to tell me a
Vikram frowned when he saw his wife in her formals when he came back home."Are you going somewhere?"Keerthi was startled,"Hi",she gave her husband a kiss."Hi.""Yeah. Going to Mom's.""Oh.Want me to drop?""Nah. I'll drive myself.""But-""I'm fine Vikram. My injuries are completely healed.""Alright",Vikram pulled his wife to him,kissing her neck."Return quickly? I've missed you",Vikram cupped his wife's breast.Keerthi pressed her lips thin,"I plan to stay there for a week or so.""Oh. Any particular reason?""We are shifting next week. So want to spend some time", Keerthi shrugged,hoping her husband understood."Cool", Vikram shrugged,"I'll drop you in that case."Keerthi stared at her husband. He agreed so easily? Wow."Why are you looking at me like that?""Just", Keerthi shrugged,"You are so different",she hugged her husband."Okay? Is something wrong?"Keerthi shook her head,"Didn't expect you to agree so easily.""Why should I agree even? You are going to your parents' pla
