The morning came after what seemed to be minutes for her after the last night. She was still dreaming a life with him when he clearly didn't wanted one. How to say and what to say was not at all her thing now. Things have changed and she has to accept that the RK she is seeing now is not the same at least for her.
She anyway got off the bed and started to the kitchen for some warm water. She was still searching for the house keepers not because she wanted them but because they know what is at the right place here. She moved her head left and right finding someone to talk to when she bumped herself into a hard rock. "What now? she heard RK speaking in his usual hard tone. "I was here just for some warm water she answered.
"Oh you are such a baby till now he mocked. "I am not a baby... she said in a stern voice. "Oh but you look like one his eyes travelled through her attire as he smirked.
"Why do you always insult me? she had her teeth gritted and her hands. What was wrong in the things she was wearing. What is baby like in her attire. "You are the harshest person I have ever met she commented.
And obviously enjoying her annoyance he chuckled "so I am the harshest person and still you married me? How absurd... Or... he stopped grinning "do you want to end it? he stared at her eyes, searching for a clue.
Madhubala anyway was not a saint. It was obvious to get irritated when a man is just there to poke in everything she does. Not knowing what to do she just started walking back to her room, because warm water could wait but she can not.
"Madhu she heard him calling her name... Actually her name, Miracle!
"What? she asked still irritated.
"Are you ready to call this off? his forehead slightly furrowed.
"Never, I will never call anything off that is with you she answered as she ran into her room trying to stop the tears in the middle.
She pushed the door close and slipped down with her knees touching her chest. He wanted her out of this, he really wanted her out.
Seconds later she heard a knock on the door and knowing that it could only be him she opened it. "Let's make a deal he said.
"What deal she was perplexed. Reason that he never came to her room after the day his parents left. And RK perusing her was not at all expected.
He leaned to the door with his arms and legs crossed. "Let's just end this and I promise that I will leave you alone and never say anything. I promise that I will be civil to you he said in a serious tone. Anyone who listens to him could tell that he meant every word of what he said.
Her mouth opened in shock. "But... But you said that you won't leave this because of Maa and dad she asked. "Yes I did but since they are out we can tell them that the things apparently didn't worked he shrugged as if it was not a big matter.
"And if I don't want this to end then he back away from the door and stood in the middle. "Are you kidding me? he placed his hands in his pockets. "You want this foolishness to continue? he appeared to be surprised by her statement.
"This is not foolishness. This is marriage, a relationship vowed in front of the almighty she answered firmly.
"Ughhh!!! he groaned in frustration as he slammed the was making her jump in fear. "You will regret this Madhu he said as he walked off. "I am ready she sighed.
She entered the college for the first day as she breathed the air fully. It was though not the first time she entered into a college but entering into your favourite was something that she was excited about. Never had she thought that she would be able to study into this college while she had her studies. Students, teachers, classroom, library, playground, club hall, and just everything that makes a student excited was presented here to use and just enjoy the student life to the fullest.
The first day in the lectures went into just introduction of students and teachers with a little bit of the subject analysis. And Madhu was totally excited about each day that she would spend here and also about how will she be interacting with the other students.
She was in the cafeteria grabbing her lunch when she heard someone introducing herself. "Hii, I am Priya and you are? Priya held her right hand forward. "Madhubala Ku... Mallik she answered clasping her hand.
"I can't believe that it is the first day of the class Priya murmured. "Hey I don't think you have any friends here coz I didn't dee you with anyone. Can we be friends? she asked softly.
Truth to be told that though she was excited but still she was hesitant to make friends here. Since it was a new place it was difficult for her to blend in. The students, their style, their sense of fashion was just so different than hers.
"Yaa.. Yaa sure she smiled in response. "Okay great Priya hugged her.
Priya Aggarwal was one of the sweetest person she et in the university till now. Her style, her clothes may be different but she still was different from others. Madhu believed that both of them clicked the first time they met in the college. She spent her whole day talking, laughing and chatting with her.
"Who is that Priya asked to Madhu looking at the guy leaning to the car Madhu had to go home in. "My fianc she answered. "Like seriously you are engaged her eyebrows short up.
She wanted to tell that she was married but then stopped "seriously Priya, I am engaged she stated.
"Okay bye she said before Priya could ask further and ran to RK.
"Look who is here. You are whole fifteen minutes late he said stretching fifteen. "I know but you said the driver would... he cuts her "anyway let's go and from tomorrow only the driver will be picking you he announced as both drove off.
