Chapter 2
10 minutes later Abhi came down in some shorts and a white V neck T shirt. Pragya was nowhere to be found. "Pragya? Pragya?" He called out.
"I'm in the kitchen!" She called back.
"Okay. Don't bother me. I'm going out to work on some music." She didn't reply back, so he left with a paper, pen, and a case of alcohol. Meanwhile in the kitchen, Pragya was busy eating a banana in stress, because of her wardrobe she had to deal with for a week. But it wasn't even that. She didn't have an clothes to change in at night. The only thing that was put in their was a couple of lingerie's for the night. She was not, ever, going to wear that. She and Abhi were barely able to talk to each other, and what they had in mind, seemed like the impossible.
Pragya pushed her thoughts aside and took a book, and began to read on the couch. In the distance she could slightly hear Abhi's voice singing and trying out new melodies, that she wasn't really interested in. She continued to read for another hour when decided it was a good time to make dinner. She walked into the kitchen and was ready to cook, when she realised she didn't know what Abhi wanted to eat. She walked to the back of the house and walked over barefoot in the sand to Abhi. He sat alone on the sand where the waves can gently touch his feet, looking out into the distance, with two empty bottles beside him.
"Abhi.." she said silently, "What would you like to eat?" He didn't respond, he didn't even move. She put her hand on shoulder and tried again. "Abhi?"
"Leave. NOW." Abhi growled, but she decided not to move.
"Is everything okay?" she tried to calm him down, squeezing his shoulder just a bit. His anger rose and he grabbed her hand pulled her to the ground. In shock and unable to move, she laid on her back, as her body slowly got wet by the waves gently crashing on to her. He was on top of her hold her arms down, ready to yell at her face.
"Why do you even care?" He growled. "I know who you are! You're just another gold digger. YOU TRIED TO GET PURAB, BUT FAILED, SO YOU CAME TO ME. Disgusting." Her eyes shot open.
"Excuse me? Me and Purab?"
"Stop acting like your surprised! I know everything. "
"No. YOU DON'T. I don't love Purab. How could you even say something like that?"
"Stop trying to lie Pragya!"
"Abhi! You think you know everything but you don't. I don't like Purab, nor does he love me. He loves Bulbul, my sister. And she loves him. I only talked to him, to get to know him, as an older sister to bulbul. Thats all."
"What? That makes no sense."
"It does. They work together Abhi. They fell in love there. Purab and Bulbul love each other and that's it." She got really angry from his accusations and pushed herself out of his grip and got up. She was pretty wet from the waves, and her dress was stuck to her skin. She didn't even care to look back and walked towards the entrance of the home.
"Wait Pragya." Abhi got up and paced towards Pragya, who stopped in front of the door, but still didn't turn around. "Why did you decide to marry me then?" She turned around slowly and looked right into his eyes. Abhi began to notice how wet she actually was, and how she was slightly shivering because of the evenings breeze.
"The same reason I do everything. For my family." He took in a deep cold breath in. The reality hit hard in his chest. "Abhi, I don't know what you think of me, but I want to tell you that you don't know everything, especially about me. And the same goes for me. I barely know anything about you. I think that if we are going to be together, then we should take some time to get to know one another before we start pointing fingers. We've made an oath to stay together for the rest of our life, let's not waste it." Abhi was at a loss of words. For the first time, he had to admit that he was wrong. Totally wrong. Failed to get a response, Pragya turned around and enterd the house. Abhi watched as she walked up the stairs to their bedroom.
***The Next Morning***
Abhi woke up around 9 am surprised to see Pragya still asleep on the other side of the bed. She laid on her side, without a blanket on her, sleeping with Goosebumps all over her, well at least the parts of her he could actually see and notice through the blurriness of his vision. He slowly got up and pushed the blanket aside and went to take a shower.
35 minutes after, Abhi got out of the bathroom to see that she still hadn't moved. "Pragya! Get up, its almost 10 am." She didn't move. He hestantly went to go shake her shoulder, when her arm moved, off the edge of the bed. She still didn't wake up. "Pragya?" He put his hand on her forehead. It was burning. He then felt her arm, it was freezing. "Shit." Pragya has a high fever, he thought.
