Letter Y
"Love please relax, you are exhausting yourself. This way you might fell ill." Again I shout at her, my wife for 100th time today but dare she give any heed to my words.
Oh one must be thinking why am I shouting at her again like always. Now what can a man do, except shouting at his wife who herself was down with high fever but isn't taking much needed rest instead she is right now jumping in our house from one room to other in the name of preparation. One second she was arranging guest room and next second she flies to kitchen like a bee to check the ingredients for tomorrow. Then she was running to our room before rushing back to the washroom attached to the guest room.
Even after waking up from 101F temperature in this morning, she is running here and there to arrange everything for the guests.
Oh! Didn't I mention what is the occasion and who is coming? Let me tell you. Few days ago, actually one week precisely we all were chatting and conversing about previous case which we solved recently. Suddenly we heard a shrill sound of cellphone and guess what? It was Rathod's cellphone. You must have understood by now what does it mean. Right?
Flashback
As soon as the shrill sound of mobile resonated in the conference room, everyone get silent and turn towards Rathod as he said "Jai Hind, Sir! Yes sir..."
We all understood that it's commissioner sir on the other side which means CASE. Oh no! I thought atleast tonight I could spend some quality time with my wife alone. But looks like there is no chance I am gonna get any such day to spend with my love.
Oh please don't think that me, Arjun Suryakant Rawte is irritated with so many cases to solve. Or that after being married to my love my passion towards my work has changed. No, it's not at all like that. It has been three months since we are back to Mumbai after spending one week together on our honeymoon. Though I had thought it will help me to control my urge and wants towards my wife and I will be able to concentrate on work without any thought of getting some alone time with my wife atleast till few months. BUT instead of decrease after our honeymoon my passion towards my wife has increase ten fold as i remember our lovely time and our passionate love making, I couldn't stop myself from wanting desperately to be with her alone, even during case.
So that is what I want just like any other human being, I too wanted a day for me and my wife in a week but she wouldn't let me touch her in office and didn't even allow to take one day leave. Looks like my workaholic ghost has transferred into her and in all this I am the poor victim boy who is not allowed to have his toy for himself.
Anyways back to present, Sam has done the debriefing of the case which seem like an undercover mission and sounds alot dangerous.
"Okay, guys. Then we all are going to meet tomorrow outside the airport at sharp 6 in morning. Don't be late and be careful about your appearance. Thats all for tonight."
As Sam concluded the discussion, we all got up and left the office after taking our fake Id from Shree.
"Wow! We are going to Anantapur. I will definitely visit Gooty Fort and Penukonda Fort." My love exclaimed excitedly.
"Woah! Love, had you visit Andhra Pradesh before too?" I asked curious to know about her experience there.
"No, Arjun. Andhra Pradesh is my mother's childhood home, she had spend her 15 years in Vijayawada because of Nanu's placement. Mumma talks alot about Andhra Pradesh, its different cities and it's beauty. It was my childhood dream to visit Andhra Pradesh." She replied with enthusiasm.
Understanding her excitement, I nodded my head. "Sweetheart, we are going there for a case not for some adventurous trip but if you say we can take few days leave and explore your childhood dream." I exclaimed happily.
"No, not needed. We will think about it after solving this case." She replied in serious tone which means no argument and just like that she again cancel my request to spend some alone time.
Soon after reaching home we did our packing and had our dinner. After dinner I slept while waiting for my wife on bed as she was busy clearing kitchen, instructing Kaka about our absence and rechecking our stuff before snuggling into my arms under the blanket, in my sleep I too cuddled her more.
Soon morning came and we all board our flight to Vishakhapatnam. On reaching there, we had our breakfast in restaurant near airport and then we went to nearby Bus stand and after buying our tickets we all sat in the bus which took us to Anantapur.
It took more than 15 hours to reach Anantapur. We all took different taxi as per the plan to reach the Fort Villa (created name), a famous hotel with atleast 50 big spacious rooms. Me and my wife had to pretend so-much-in-love couple which is not at all a problem and Chotu is my little brother. Shree, Liza, Sakshi are college going friends who came to explore city. While Sam and Ayesha became boyfriend girlfriend which intrigued me on seeing there chemistry during case investigation.
And as I mentioned this case was dangerous. No, we didn't faced anything, nothing happened to Chotu also. But Liza and Sakshi faced lots of criticism and humiliation in the name of keeping friendship with boy. Whereas Sam and Ayesha had almost lost their life which leads to ...umm... A big confession.
As we came here to found out the reason behind murders and suicide attempt of girls and boys just after their visit to this hotel which can not be any coincidence. Therefore we came here to investigate about the reason behind it. During investigation we all were invited in an event organised by hotel to celebrate some kind of tradition of this hotel which unbelievably happens after every 3 months. So we attended the event and got to know that this hotel or precisely this society is very conservative and orthodox they believe in tradition more than humanity, for them there couldn't be any relation between a boy and a girl who are not blood related and aren't husband wife. In the event we saw , few old people were making abusive taunts and humiliate Liza, Sakshi for same and totally ignored Sam and Ayesha whereas they behave very nicely with me and my wife.
But next morning, we found Sam and Ayesha were neither in the hotel nor they were recieving their phone calls. Soon Shree trace down their GPS location of his device which he had fitted in everyone's shoes and footwears. On reaching the location which is deep in the dry forest at the back of the hotel, we saw unconscious Sam tied on a tree where as Ayesha's sandals and scarf were lying near his feet. After bringing him back to consciousness we asked him about Ayesha which made him panic as he started running towards the west of the jungle and we followed him. After few minute distance we found Ayesha's broken watch lying beside that we saw marks of dragging someone on the ground and started following it. Soon I saw someone's silhouette and rushed towards it and found Ayesha was lying unconscious on floor while two men were trying to pack her inside a large sack and co founder of the hotel Mr. Nagpal was instructing to be quick. Kicking both the men I took Nagpal on my gunpoint and shout for others. Soon everyone came. We found Nagpal was smuggling orphan and alone girls hiding behind the name of their 'No girl and boy can have relationship without blood relation or marriage' belief, this way no one objected or ask about that particular boy and girl who were either in relationship or friends but were alone in the world.
I pushed Nagpal towards Chotu who along with Local Police took him and his men away.
While Sam still in his dizzy state rushed to Ayesha, hugged her and started confessing things making all of us stunned and shocked to the core.
"Aayu!! Thank God, you are alright. We found you otherwise I would have died. Ayesha I really love you.. I love you so much. Please always be safe, please. I can't even breathe without you. Please Aayu." Sam cried hugging now-awake-but-dizzy Ayesha who was staring at him with moist eyes and weak smile. Whereas we all were rooted to our place in shock and bewilderment.
Soon my wife along with Liza and Sakshi started their aww session which brought us out of our trance and we, I means Shree, Chotu and me stare at Sam with weird look. Whereas Ayesha chuckled on their aww and Sam flushed remembering about others presence.
And soon after Sam's impompous confession, my always-ready-to-make-match wife jumped in and said "Now that Rathod Sir has finally confessed his feelings and we already knew about Ayesha, so let's celebrate this special moment. Sir you have to gave us treat."
"And what is that you all want?" Sam asked her pushing his embarrassment away.
"Uh! You have to take us to the Gooty fort and Penukonda fort. I heard there are very famous and interesting." She put forth her demand which made me shocked on understanding how she twist the current matter and made her childhood dream true.
Sam accepted saying "Okay. Already we had two days leave granted after completion of this case."
I step in and said "Whatever it is, it will be done tomorrow. Sam and Ayesha need to be treated and some rest."
Flashback end..
And after visiting those forts we travelled back to Mumbai and my Young and to-much-in-adventure wife had stress herself so much in enjoyment that she fell ill with high fever on our way back. After that I had to finally took leave of both me and her not for our alone time but for her health.
Now that her fever had reduced somewhat and she got to know that I asked Ayesha to bring her parents here at our house to meet Sam whose parents are coming tonight, my wife had jumped out of her bed and started cleaning the house, arranging the room along with Kaka for Sameer's parents as Sam's flat isn't arranged and big enough for his parents stay. So I suggest him to let uncle aunty stay at my house.
And from that time she is jumping , running here and there to make her already-arranged house (after all my wife is hygiene freak) more presentable. Again neglecting her health.
Uff.. Don't even think that I didn't try to intervene or help to reduce her workload. I did and I am seriously damn tired but my love is as usual Youthfully doing the extra arrangement for Sam and Ayesha's parents discussion related to fixing the date of engagement and marriage. What would have she done if I planned to do Sam engagement from our home? God! In no way, I am going to suggest any such plans.

"WIFEY!! Get inside right now." I shouted angrily from the bed, after waiting half an hour for my wife to grace our bed with her presence.
And this time she came knowing that I am seriously angry now as well as Sam's mom must have chidded her for staying up till late. Ah! Yes the much awaited event of discussion had finished three hours ago and it's already half past one in the night but my love is still Youthful full-of-energy and blooming bright Yellow like a sunflower which made me hell irritated as well as amazed.
As she came out of the washroom after changing in her night dress with a pout and you-are-so-mean look. I pulled her on bed and said "Now shine bright Yellow and show your Youthfulness to me too my love but here in bed." ; )
