They were woken up early morning by her maa asking them to get ready... on asking about breakfast she said that they can have it one they return n it wasn't too far..
She silently sat next to him while he drove them to the temple... it was early hours of the morning and the soil was still wet from the rain last night!
The slight smell of soil and the moisture in the air added to the pleasant feeling of the morning...
Geet...
Hmm..
Wo I saw this Radhakrishna idol near the bed it's really nice...
Thanks. .. I brought it from iskon temple!
Oh great. .. but I thought u worshipped babaji more...
It's not like that maan I believe in every god but Radhakrishna has a complete different meaning to me... looking at them I feel love n it's divinely feeling still exists...
Oh like that!
Hmm I always kept it with me... it not so extraordinary or something but I somehow felt connected!
Like being blessed By love!
Interesting! Come we've reached the temple!
It was crowded than usual. .. on asking they said it was some auspicious day so... most of the ladies were decked up like they were attending some fashion parade... n their husbands carrying the pooja items dutifully...
The crowd increased as the time passed n then she felt his arm on her shoulder pulling her towards him protecting her from the crowd n leading her ahead!
For the first time she felt safe in his hold like she belonged to him... like it wasn't always a man's intention to get intimate with his wife if he gets closer. .. it can be to assure her of his presence... like the night he patted her to sleep after her attempt to kill herself or the hug which he gave her after his trip which said his feelings that he missed her!
It was her who wasn't in right frame of mind.. n took it otherwise!
Babaji what did he say I was tempting him.. she thought chuckling!
Now looking at things from his perspective was so easy for her thanks to the distance which made it easy for her... offering prayers they walked out of the temple... when he got a call..
How can u be so demanding Aanchal??
I know u have ur birthday coming u have reminded me like a 100 times now ...u will get ur gift!
God girl take a break how much will u speak!
Okay ...
Hmm... I'll remember. .. ok done. .. bye Tc..
Grinning to himself he turned towards her still lost in the convo he just had
Geet I want to buy a Radhakrishna idol too can u please help me select!
Umm sure... she wanted to ask but y anyhow she would be bringing the one at home with her then y a new one. ..
Shrugging her thoughts she walked to a vendor nearby n selected one ... when she turned back to show it to him if that was ok .. but found him busy on a call laughing at something. ..
She had hardly seen him laugh forgot laughing she has hardly noticed him otherwise. .. he was quite a handsome man.. well built how strongly he holds her... she thought lost in her thoughts n when he lifted her in his arms... Babaji what am I thinking!
Jo bhi ho she had a handsome hubby hai na babaji!
When she was trying few bangles till he finishes his call she felt him slip his hands on her waist through the saree n help her with the bangles ever so slowly sliding one by one to her wrist. ..she pulled away feeling shy of his PDA turning other side to hide her embarrassed face from him only to see him still on the call n she was imaging silly things with him!
Geet get a grip!
Walking back to her while still on the call he gave a appreciative nod on her selection of the idol n moved towards the jeep paying for the same... leaving her pouting with the bangles in her hand!
Thank god that she had a little money that she paid with or else it would have been so embarrassing!
Making herself comfortable next to him she was lost in her thoughts creasing her new bangles. .. she loved them actually she loved all kinds n colours of bangles. .. back home she had a huge collection of them...
She didn't carry every thing to her in laws place in a fear of breaking them!
After reaching home they had their breakfast n she did her packing along with her idol this time she somehow felt it she was leaving her home forever!
This was more painful than the previous time her eyes were shedding silent tears n her father wasn't leaving her hand... her mom rushed in on a pretext of leaving something on the stove...
She was crying all the way till back home n he was now getting annoyed with her sobbing. .
As they reached the house she wiped her tears with her pallu n made herself presentable...
Greeting the elders she made her way to her room to settle the stuff she brought from her home...
Maan what is all this... she heard her MIL ask to which he answered promptly as they were her books n clothes which she wanted to bring with herself!
Removing the flower vase from the corner stand she placed her idol which she brought from home... n walked to the dressing table she placed the small pot of vermillion which her mother gave her as a blessing picking up a pinch she filled her partition smiling at her silly self..
She turned around to find him on the door with one of her bags rooted at his place. ..
There was some different kind of emotion on his face... something strange which she couldn't put a finger on...
He rushed to her leaving the bags at the door step n pulled her close hugging her tightly lifting her off the floor!
He kept murmuring something which was not too clear...
Maan???
To Be Continued. ...
Hay yaar pep!
I know I messed up this part... curse this stupid power cuts!😡
Still if u feel it is atleast near to being ok... do let me know! I'm really nervous here!!😕
