Heyy! Here's the latest update!
She lay on her bed in the darkness, the light from the screen of her phone illuminating her face. She scrolled through the pictures in her gallery and stopped when she reached one which caught her eye. She had completely forgotten about it. It was a selfie that he had clicked in jaipur. Her head was burried under his chin as they both smiled and looked into the camera. She smiled at it, looking at his beautiful face. She liked how they looked, tucked into each other like that. The next picture had her kissing his cheek as he looked into the camera. She had surprised him with the kiss. Her smile didnt falter as she thought about what happened today.
He told her he loved her. And she said it back. She thought after all they had shared, it wasnt necessary to for either of them to say it out loud because both knew what the other felt. But when he did utter those words. And with such ease, it warmed her heart, boy it sure did feel nice to hear it in his voice. To be loved was someyhing she always wanted and she knew he loved. Today, he only made it even mkre obvious that he was her solace and her light.
He sat on the couch in his room, feet resting resting on the coffee table in front of him. His mind wandered through the events. He told her. There was an unsettled relief in him. He had become so accustomed to loving her without any thing in return that his heart hadn't realized how good it would feel if she reciprocated. And Sumo felt like his very own sun. She felt like his centre of universe for some reason. Maybe because she said she loved him too. Or maybe it is the way he feels when she is hugging him and he melts in her. Or how his heart fills up with affection when he feels her comfort him. He had been deprived of affection for so long that he had forgotten what it was like to be loved. His phone pungs and he lookes at it. Message from sumo. He opens her chat and sees that she's sent him a couple of images.
The pictures load and he smiles when he looks at them. It's the pictures they clicked in jaipur, in her hotel room. He liked how perfectly she fit under his chin. And the other picture was of her kissing him on the cheek as he clicked the selfie. He zoomed in on her face and chuckled. His beautiful sumo. His phone rings and it is her. He smiles and answers it.
Sumo: hello?
Shravan: farmaiye madam...kis liye phone kiya aap ne?
Sumo: aise kyun keh rahe ho? Mai tumhe aise hi phone nahi karsakti kya?
Shravan: raat ke 2 baje hain sumo...is waqt log sote hain.
Sumo: neend aagayi thi tumhe?
Shravan: tumhe lagta hai mujhe aaj neend aayegi? He says softly
She stays silent for a second and replies.
Sumo: mujhe bhi nahi aarahi...
Shravan: aajaun tumhare paas?
Sumo: aajao! She snickered at his childish words.
Shravan: okay abhi aaya. 10 minutes!
Sumo: shravan? Are you serious?
Shravan: haan!
Sumo: pagal hogaye ho tum? Kisi ne dekhliya toh bawal khadha hojayega!
Shravan: such a tease sumo...
Sumo: mai ne ye bolne phone kiya tha ki kal naanu ki 75th birthday hai. Toh humne chhota surprise plan kiya hai! Aaoge?
Shravan: sure! Isme poochne ki kya baat hai..definately aaunga!
Sumo: cool! Bye!
Shravan: hey- ruko!
But she's already hung up. Typical sumo he says, a bit annoyed. Poori baat sunni hi nahi hai.
The day arrives. Nanu goes out for his evening walk and the entire tiwari killa is in a hullabaloo as everyone gets the decorations up and shifts the furniture around to make space for the centre table and cake. Sumo rushed around hanging streamers and the "happy birthday" hanging. She was standing on a wooden stool and yet couldn't manage to reach the required height so she tip toed, trying to wrap the string around the nail.
Shravan enterred the house and the first thing he sees is his lady tiptoe-ing on a wobbly wooden stool and rushed to her.
Shravan: Sumo! Ye kya kar rahi ho?
Sumo: oh tum aagaye! Woh banner laga rahi hoon. Dikhta nahi kya?
Shravan: girjaogi tum seedhe thairo. Ya utro mai karta hoon!
Sumo: arre nahi nahi! Hogaya bas thoda sa aur!
She says as she leans to the left and her foot slips! She comes crashing down on shravan who falls to the ground, holding her protectively over him. She lands on him while he lands flat on his back. "Owww" they both yell.
"Tum theek ho?" He asks her, arms still around her.
Sumo opens her eyes to see his face right in front of her. His eyes were still closed and he was vincing. "Haan par tum theek ho?" She worriedly asks as he raises on of his hands to the back of his head. She supports herself on her knees, one on on either side of him and looms over him, placing ahamd on the back of his head and feeling around for any bumps.
"Shravan tumhe lagi sar pe?" She asks softly and worried. He opens his eyes, "obviously sumo pagal ho kya--" but he doesnt finish his sentence as he opens his eyes to her looming over his face, worry etched in her eyebrows and stradling him with her legs and one of her hands one his isde and another in his hair. She is a vision to him. So beautiful. It was like time slowed down.
Sumo is perplexed as to why shravan stopped midsentence and looks at him, oy to see him staring back at her. His innocent face lay right beneath hers. Blood rushed to her face as she felt his gaze like daggers on her skin. What a sight it was. Him so close to her. And no one else. What wouldnt she give to see this every day for the rest of her life?
"Suman di kya hua aap theek to ho?" Preeti walks in after hearing a tremendous noise but stops at the sight in front of her. Sumo and shravan on the ground, sumo straddling him and his hamds on her waist as they stared at each other. She feels embarassed to be there but it would be a ruckus if any one of the elders found them like that so she claps loudly twice and stops. Sumo and shravan turn at the sound of the clap and break out of their reverie. They quickly look back at the position they're in and at a very amused looking preeti and fumble to get up. "Woh mai girgayi thi shravan par...hum... dono...girgaye the" sumo explains hurriedly. She qui kly walks i to the house and preeti follows her behind and shravan follows them later.
Naanu comes back from the walk and the moment he walks in, everyone yells surprise and wishes him. Everybody hugs him and guves him gifts. He looks overjoyed and happy. He blows out all the candles and bcuts the cake and feeds it to everyone while everyone else feeds him. Everyone enjoys the small tea time oarty with snacks and tea made by sumo. Nanaji asks for one gift for everyone and that is a teerth yatra to a temple in a near by city. Everyone agrees except sumo who cites work pressure. Shravan gives her a look and turns away. The party is over and everyone retreats to rheir rooms and shravsn buds bye to everyone and leaves. They were surrounded by family and preeti kept eyeing them so they just formally bid each other bye from afar.
She finally goes to her room and locks the door to change and get freshened. "Finally!" She hears a voice and almost yells. Shravsn is in her room!
Sumo: tumhara dimagh kharab hai shravan?! Kya kar rahe ho yahan? Tum toh chalgey the na!
Shravan: aise kaise chalajata! Tumhe barabar bye bhi nahi kaha
Sumo: why are you acting like a typical hindi serial housewife? 'Jate waqt bye toh bolte' she imitates.
Shravan: i dont think typical hindi serial housewives sneak into their girl friend's room.just to get a kiss!
Sumo: but typical hero does!
Shravan: toh nahi hoon kya mai tumhara hero?
Sumo: hmmm...ho! Par mai typical heroine nahi hoon!
Shravan: kyun?
Sumo: because im not shy and i'll give you exactly what you want!
She grabs him by the collar and pulls him into a kiss. He wraps his arms around her a second later as it hits him and deepens the kiss. She grabs his neck and pulls her more into him and he pushes her against the cupboard as he trails his lips down her throat as she moans. She claws at his abs, aching to touch them but his shirt was buttoned and she dint have that much patience. Her hands roam around his back as she bites his neck snd the hands go lower and lower. "Whoah..." he says against her neck at her actions.
"Ugh i want you so bad" she cries in a moan. It makes him stiffen even more to see her yearning for him. "I would love to oblige to all your wants ms. Tiwari but hum tumhare room mei hain aur sab ghar par hi hain...you realize how difficult it is for us to do anything now?
Sumo grabs his face and stares straight in to his hooded eyes with her dazed ones "why do you think i said i cant go for the teerth yatra?"
Realization dawns on shravan. She excused herself to be with him.
"Are you serious?" He asks her, a bit in disbelief.
"Ofcourse!" She replies wrapping her arms lazily around his neck. His touch still tingled her but she loved it.
"You're a naughty girl sumo!"
"Not as naughty as you mr. Grey" she replies looking at his lips and wiping her lipstick off them.
"What?" He asks in confusion. Then he realizes.
"Did you just call me mr. Grey? As in 50 shades of grey?"
Sumo realizes her mistake. It had just flown out of her mouth and she hadnt even realized it. "Woh mai..."
"Damnn...you're going red...you've read the 50 shades books haven't you sumo?" he asks amused.
Sumo huffs and gives up. "Yeah i did. So what? Dont be a judgy bitch!"
"Im not judging! I just like the fact that you read and you think im your mr. Grey." He says huskily, making her skin tingle.
It was true. She had read the books and many a times she had thought shravan suited the physicalities of the character. She never meant to say it out loud though!
"I cant wait for the weekend..." he says.
"Me neither" she replies planting a peck on him.
"Go out with me. On a date. A proper real date!" He quips.
"Seriously?" She questions.
" haan! I want to take you out! Ek achhi si date par! As a couple! Hamari first date!"
Sumo's eyes light up. "Wow. Done! I guess we're not flirting with boundaries anymore!"
"Ofcourse not! I f**king love you! It's legit!" He replies casually. His words make her heart warm up.
"I legit love love you too!" She chuckles.
"Chalo bye!" He says and backs up.
"By the way, im not a bitch. And i'm not sadistic." He says with a smirk.
She gets his reference and smiles.
She waves bye at him and he climbs out the window.
