Nisha, when do we get next one ?

Hello people

I have one more hour of calls tonight. I am just not getting a break this week. I will be able to write tomorrow night. If any one has patience to read it, they can check it out

Seems sitting in US South East Asia is what you manage 😬.

No worries Nisha.

You teach me patience 😂.

Agla kaab milega yeh jaan ke thoda Santosh hotta hai.

“Tushaar, aur kaun?” “I mean not Gaurav”

“Do you want to go back to Delhi with me?”

Boom!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One nice thing

“Is this because I told you I don’t get along with Mom?”

He threw his blanket to the side and hopped off the bed, lithe and fit

“What do you think?”

“Mujhe lagta hai tum mujhe pity kar rahe ho” she said firmly her lower lip quivering

He glared at her and left, when he returned from the bathroom, she was bending down to put a bowl in front of Harold, who of course no longer wanted to eat, bolted and ran up to Pradyut.

He was showered and ready to go to work

“Does my brother know I am here?” she started to tidy the bed and pick up Harold’s toys so she could leave

:”He does, you are pregnant, you cannot disappear unannounced” he growled

She turned toward him

“Do you even know what it is like?”

“I don’t…. you should”

“Taana de rahe ho mujhe?”

“I said you I don’t know. I cant…”

“Taras mat khao”

“LLAST thing I feel for you is pity” he charged toward her

She swallowed as they glared at each other

“If you don’t feel pity then do you want my new shop?”

“You are SO wrapped up in your warrior quest, you don’t even see beyond it”

“KYA hai iske beyond?” she shouted

“Are you expecting a elocution? Go back to Delhi with me”

“After the baby kya karoongi main?”

“You think I am inviting you for the delivery?” he was furious

“Galat kya socha maine?”

“It was not MY idea. You walked away from what we had”

“WHAT DID WE HAVE?”

“I don’t know… I am not a therapist… I am insanely attracted to you. It hasn’t evaporated… it only seems to grow when I am around you” he stepped back and went to the kitchenette to start making breakfast

“Thanks”

“I am not saying this to flatter you. I am being honest”

“Hmm”

“You haven’t SAID ONE thing” he accused, opening the fridge “I don’t know why you married me, I don’t know why you lived with me, I don’t know why you dumped me”

He looked hurt

“Our relationship was nothing about all that. I signed on the dotted line and went with you”

“You are lying to yourself if that’s where we are at even today” he cornered her on the fridge

“I am not going to be emotionally naked in front of you” she gasped, her voice quivering

“OH? OH? Oh I see how it is” his face was flushed with emotion

“Tumhe who store chahiye thi, tumhe mil gayi, now you want me to go with you, chit bhi tumhari pat bhi” she let tears flow

“You are always thinking about who is winning”

“Why NOT? You knew I am competitive. I am not going to lie to you, so you can feel good about yourself.”

“That’s not what I meant”

“This WHOLE relationship has been hoisted on who wins the store… and YOU did”

“Did you want me to just throw it out the window? You KNOW how obsessed I am with my work”

She looked away

“Have you really bothered to understand who I am?”

“You seem to be talking about US as if we are a THING.” She nervously pushed her thick locks behind her ear.

“We ARE a thing. Have we spent one night without making love?” he demanded. I have hated going home, I am tired of fixing my own dinners”

Her heart just stopped

“When you decided to run away, could you have at least packed up all your goddamn stuff?” he growled viciously, inching toward her, his breath fanning her cheek

She turned bright red

“Last night” she whispered “We did not make love”

“Oh believe me… you have no idea about the self control it took” his voice was husky

“I want you to tell me what about living with me you liked. I am not going to answer any more of your questions”

This is not a match” she pointed

“This HAS been a match, the second we set eyes on each other”

“Isnt it exhausting for u?”

“Nope” he exhaled slowly

“I am attracted to you as well Pradyut. U probably see it on my FACE” she closed her eyes with her hand

He pried it away gently, and looked at her eyes

“That’s the only intimate thing youve ever said to me" he was astonished

“”If I find the conveyance deed can I still get my store back?” she held her breath

He stared interminably

“I am fine with that” he said smugly

Loved it, Absolutely loved it. They were true to their character 😂.

The guy came out with it and compelled her too 🤩.

Woow

U always make ot look so simple and beautiful 🥰
