Nature’s Ble(ki)ssings!!!! ..A mini OS.. Ra4gKor
Working in a corporate, dealing with CSR, travelled and worked overseas but still was surprised at few…. Is it till a taboo??? A point to ponder….
***************************************
Its been a while after the preview as life is not always same every minute… That evening RagKor were in agony when Aditi, the naughty one swallowed something and the whole Mansion was in stress, Raaghav and the boys were in complete sweat. The Lion and the cubs were like a cat and the kittens calling everyone in Shimla…. Chakor took Aditi on her shoulder and patted her back a bit harsh when the small toy part came out. The little one started to smile leaving all sweating and puffing. Mummaa, Hmmm you are just amazing..hugged the boys. More than handling Aditi it was tough handling the three musketeers.. Then on the boys were extremely careful in checking with the play things of the roses…
Many such instances happen in life…. But still they sailed it through without forgetting their cuddle and warmth… Sometimes the girls were cranky that they end up sleeping on their daddy’s chest throughout the night while the birdie was on his side pouting and still holding his hand….
***********************
Raaghav was very busy with the next set of international orders. He was overseeing the processing and packaging. Gauri a sweet bubbly girl who spearheaded the process was always handy and was the best employee too who rallies the other girls in the plucking and packing. But………..
Govind bhai…. Savitri, the middle aged lady said, I shall do Gauri’s work too today as she is not keeping so well. Arey kya hogaya yeh ladki ko, mahina mey kuch dhin aisi karthi hai. Hmmm chalo. He said.. Gauri was going slow and Raaghav was watching from his work place in the packaging as he worked with the workers. She was pale and was holding something in her dupatta hiding and walking…. Hey Gauri what’s it asked Mukund the newly inducted employee from the Laals. She jittered holding it behind… nothing she said… Are you taking any tea packets? He asked? Wanting to show his loyalty in front of Raaghav.
Nai nai bhaiya… Mukund!!! shouted Raaghav… what are you talking, Is this the way you talk to Gauri… You are new. None of my old ones knows to do any pilferage. Govind he shouted….I don’t want to see him.. Sorry saab… Mukund shivered… She kept quiet lowering her head and went away…
When he was about to leave for Mansion, he heard Savitri just cajoling Gauri… donot worry Raaghav bhai will not mistake you, what to do certain of our women’s perils men donot know….
*********************
He came to the Mansion it was late and the boys had done their homework and played with the roses… He kissed them all goodnight and asked where is Mumma…
Daddy mumma just went up, she asked you to have dinner and come… Did she have? No daddy….He was surprised as Chakor always waited for him and they both used to have dinner but sometimes she would carry the dinner up for both…
He went into the room and saw her just circling herself on the bed… He changed and went cuddling her kissing… Is my queen not feeling well… she turned to him smiling, just a bit of tiredness….
Why are you pale he asked??? Shall I call the Dr? No I am fine..Did you eat?? No when have I had without you he said… have asked them to bring the dinner here. He ate while she nibbled for him.
He nuzzled her and said Chakor its been long…. Please….atleast a kiss please…. He snaked his hands through her belly when he found her belly was somewhat oily and warm… she got up saying just a minute.. Went to the cupboard, took a small packet wrapping in her dupatta and went to washroom.
He found a bottle of castor oil and a hot water bag beside her spread. He jumped running to her and caught her hand, she hid. What’s that he asked? What are you hiding? She lowered her eyes… no..no.thing… No there is something. He was bit agitated.. show me he grabbed her hand and saw the small wrapped packet. What’s this he asked?… Are you having some medicine? No… this is a sanitary pad…. She said… What’s that? Why you hide your trouble from me , he thumped his feet. Are you not well? Why is that there is oil bottle and hot water bag… He was literally angry but in tears too. Why don’t you tell me??
No Raagahav, calm down… give me a minute I will be back… Don’t latch the door he said waiting near the door… Chakor are you ok…. He was worried. She came out… sat on the bed, while he sat down kneeling looking up.. Whats happening??… she kissed him, he moved away.. tell me whats that… She cupped his face… Raaghav this is the Nature’s blessing for woman… Meaning!!! She explained the process of mensturation, the attached discomfort of cramps to which the oil and hot water soothes a bit, the paleness and tiredness the orientation of the uterus, about the menstruating, sanitary pads and the taboo attached to it… He teared….But why? Raaghav, God has chosen us to bear the children and this is the ordeal we go through right from the young age she said. But why only woman has to go through this….. God is cruel… she closed his mouth… God is kind as he knows that woman can handle pain, go through the agony and God loves woman… it’s only just sad that the society considers this beautiful process as a taboo…
Chakor …he held her hands, I am sorry if I had ever troubled you with my urge…when…. She closed his mouth… No Raaghav you have never, I am blessed with such an understanding husband who never wanted anything when I said no… Does it pain you now he asked caressing her belly…. A bit of cramps yes…smiling. Why don’t you tell, why do you hide… Its ok…she said. we can still … … Nooo he rose… He hugged her… kissed her on the forehead.. Will our roses too have to go through this… he cried…. I can’t see any of you in pain… Yes but that’s the blessing… Why can’t men have something…. All you need to do is love the woman, respect and understand her unspoken pain. She hugged him back… Maybe if I had been born with a sibling I would have known …..but…. No Raaghav not all understand or even try to understand this.. Even carrying a pad is so sensitive…
He made her lie down… moved her tops up… took the oil applied it on the naval and the area around it massaging, giving her the hot water bag fermentation. She drifted into sleep while he was thinking, replaying the morning scene. Kissing her he cuddled her while she went into his warmth.
*********************
It was a couple of weeks that Raaghav had to go to a small town near Shimla which had special tea breed which he wanted to check out for the oncoming orders. He asked Chakor to visit the plantation as Kaaka was managing and the major packing was being done that day.
She visited the plantation when Gauri ran to her… didi…. How are you my bubbly girl… acha didi…all smiles she was and also the other girls. She was running around checking the packing. Chakor was astonished when she saw something new. The women restrooms had sanitary pad dispensing machines and also mobile restrooms were placed at plantations which had plucking inside deep down. Savitri came running to her… Bitiya… Raaghav babu ka laakh laakh sukriya aur aapka parivar juk juk jio. I don’t know how to thank him as this machine has helped many girls and also look there she showed a small room which had two beds along with facility of few medicines, oils and hot water bags with a mini kitchenette. Kaaki….. Savitri told, Raaghav called Shyaam kaaka and asked him to set up these and also requested Savitri kaaki to take care of those girls who wanted to relax and rest during their times. They had a special tie-up with those companies to stock supplies and the plantation paid them. I love you Budda she smiled with tears in her eyes. Kaaka just blessed her head…. You have indeed made the diamond into a beautiful pendant and it shines being worn by you…
**********************************
He got a call when he was driving back from Chakor. Yes the plant breed is good, we can ask the experts and then sign the deal. … Yes yes I know its late, don’t worry I am on way… ok we shall have dinner in our room he said… raging the Rover.
He went to the cubs room who were wriggling for him on bed… daddy good night hugging him. Sorry dears got bit late… kissing them. Kissed his roses who were sleeping but Aditi was restless, took her patted her kissed her and put her back in her mini bed when she slept smiling in peace… Dadda muuaahh..
The room was candle lighted with a dinner for two and she was in the balcony dressed in a black saree with a low cut single knotted sleeveless blouse with her hair to one side revealing her seductive back…… He saw her smiled and quickly changed and came back hugging her kissing her back and playing with the knot… Hmmm am I in for some surprise from my queen…. You look like a black pearl… Hmmm she turned around garlanding him…. she was looking stunning with a simple single black pearl stud, matching black pearl neck piece and with a subtle red lipstick..
You are intoxicating like the whisky he said, bringing her closer to him… Any special occasion??? She said Hmmm yes I thought it has been quite long so .. So…. He asked….so thought to serve you dinner…. His eyes were bright… they were swaying together for a mild music which was playing… Dinner??? Yes dinner which is on the table… Uggh…. Chakooorrr he was pouting….. she took him and served him dinner…they ate together…they were sitting in the diwan, she resting on him, while he was just nuzzling her giving soft kisses…. playing with her knot and caressing her toned arms, kissing her fingers…snaking her belly and smoothing down… she knew her man was getting restless.
She turned towards him… while he held her waist thumbing her …Not only dinner but…. her eyes was getting dark… kissing him… Smiling at him, He lifted her and placed on the bed… she was down while she arched herself up making his eyes go wide at his bold birdie…..Kissing her valley he unknotted the blouse removed and threw it… You look soooo…..beautiful he said…looking at the beauty in front of him. ….. thank you my Rowdy for understanding the women’s perils…. Caressing his cheeks, thumbing his lips…holding his neck and kissing hard….he was going eclectic when she removed his shirt…and went down to his pyjamas… She brought him down making him yelp in surprise…hey... Sexy bir… before he could complete she served him with her best dessert.. he sucked one while he held the other kneading it…. Rowdddyyy…… I love you…thought to serve you dessert along with a demo… He was in reverie….Hmmm.. just subliming in the exotic dessert… kissing, looking up into her dreamy eyes … so what demo is this…he was blending in her as she was taking the stride kissing him all over. She went near his ears… going over him…biting his ear lobes she said… Nature’s Kissings…. They were mingling…with passion taking over…. Lust taking over. She pressed the curtains down and reached the packet giving it to him….. I love you…. my Sexy birdie…me too my Rustic Rowdy....
It’s not necessary that dinner and dessert need to be served together it can be relished separately too !!!!

I went for a quick gathering which spoke about woman empowerment and as a part of the return gift was given a purse like pouch. When asked what’s it for I got shocked and surprised to hear to carry the sanitary pad …. Are we still in this taboo???? Something clicked in me so thought to pen it down!!!
