A short story
The consequences of losing a wonderful wife.
8am virks residence.
He looked down on his plate sadly . A dish prepared by jasmin sandhu, his would be wife.
Three burnt aloo ka parotha.
Khalo bhai! abto aisa hi milega! Mahi interrupted smiling as she walked towards the kitchen.
He had no choice. He took few bites of the unburn parts of the dish served to him.
It's been two days since the divorce took place and he was starving for tasty mouth watering meals. His fierce dad had instructed that his would be wife will prepare his food. Beloved mum was told to stay away from pampered son.
12 pm at academy , cabin
His eyes searched through the files. Stomach growling and taunting him fiercely. Oi nalaik! Kuch khiladey bhai! Bhook legi hain!
Few minutes later, he heard tejo's sweet voice at the front door. She came. I am sure she must have brought lunch for me as well. Jasmin was out with sweety. They had a meeting with a few investors that day as angad had informed him. Tejo will be present as well.
He was excited to see her after two days. Dressed in white purple floral punjabi salwar kameez, she looked stunning. His dark eyes were set on her as she took a seat rite opposite, putting away her bag and lunch box and shuffling through some documents.
Does she miss me?? He was desperate to know.
Irrk tejo, he asked softly. She looked up at him instantly. Tum kaisi ho! He asked a little nervous.
Bahut kush hun! She answered politely still going through the sheets of papers on the desk.
ouch!!! That hurts!
She's happy. She doesn't miss me at all. ! He was not happy and decided to find out details of how she felt after the divorce.
Irrk , tum kush kyun ho! He enquired , feeling nervous and restless. She was confused but smirked.
Tere sey picha chut geya!
He was shocked. Ouch!!! That hurts .
Aur apney maa baap key ghar mey jo sukoon haina woh kehin bi nehin hain! Pichley do din sey pet bhar key kah rehin hun. Mummy key hath ka khana! She continued excitedly to which he was feeling annoyed and thought to himself.
Tu kamini nikli yaar! Kudh pet bharkey kah rehi thi. Aek baar mere bare nehin socha! Teri behen key jeley hui parothey, adhey keche chawal or soup wali dal sey guzara kar raha hun!
Just then she opened her lunch box,
Aha! Kya kushboo hain. Thoda mangley! His stomach taunted him.
Irrk tejo, kitney parothe layi ho! He asked impatiently.
Sat parothe! She replied calmly taking the first bite.
Itne sare akele khaogi! He was trying to get his hands on that delicious meal rite in front of his eyes.
Tejo , here i come! Angad interrupted rushing into the cabin sitting next to her. Yeh lo! She handed some of the dish towards him. He watched them eating with his tummy annoyed cursing him. Sale ,tu bas dekhta reh!
As she was finishing her last bite, she looked up at him asking
Fateh, tumney khana khaya ! to which he was irritated, thinking
Lo, kar loh baat. Ab puch rehi hain , kambakt. Pehle nehin puch sekti thi!
He pretended smiling
Haan subah jasmin ney mast breakfast khilaya. !
Main kya betau ! Bhook legi nehin.
He touched his stomach.
Chalo acha hain! Angad interrupted.
4 pm.
Meeting over. He rushed towards a nearby cafeteria and grabbed some sandwiches with coffee. Another meeting was fixed at 6 pm. He had to eat something.
9 pm at virks kitchen
He prepared himself a bowl of instant noodles as jasmin went to bed early due to full day outing with her friend. No dinner prepared for him.
Ringg! He picked up at the fourth ring swallowing his not so well cooked noodles.
Fateh, tmrow we have another meeting at 10am. Pls be on time ! Angad spoke calmly while having his dinner. Aap ko aek aur chapati dun! Tejo's voice heard .
Angad was at sandhus having dinner. Fateh was upset. Oh! He gets to eat all that delicious meals now!
Irrk, tejo ney kya benaya! He enquired impatiently to which angad replied smiling. Are yaar, bahut tasty hain. Paneer tikka, sarson ka saag, dal makhni, aloi mutter, gajar ka halwa and ice cream.
Ouch!!! That hurts. His favourite dishes and he could only have noodles. He sighed as he looked down at the bowl of noodles resting on the dining table.
Fateh ! Tum ney khana khaliya! Angad asked excitedly. Yes! This was it. Make use of him to get there!. Fateh was restless.
Irrk, nehin. ! Hoping he will be offered. Arey soch kya raha hain. Feta fet aja! . Angad replied excitedly again.
Line disconnected. Fateh singh virk rushed to his car to reach his dream food destination.
Hello! Hello! Angad was confused as fateh didn't respond on the other side of the line.
Little did he realise that the poor guy was facing the consequences of losing a wonderful wife.
He was about to reach sandhus when his phone rang again. It was tejo. He picked up immediately. Tejo !
Tum mat ana! Raat bahut ho geyi. Kal miltey hain. ! She spoke before him and then disconnected the line there and then.
Ouch!! That hurts!
With a heavy heart, he took a u turn home.
He could sense there were more u turns to come in future. He has to get used to them now .
10 am Sports academy
The meeting went on well. Tejo offered tea and snacks to all but did not serve him. Fateh was upset. Irrk tejo!
She knew what he wanted to say.
Jasmin ka message aya tha. She said she prepared something special for u . Just wait a while, the driver is sending it over. His heart sank. Arey kya surprise. Acha khasa tejo key hath key pakode kha leta! Sara meza kherab kardiya.!
It was a small pastry cake with i love u letters written on it . All smiled. Everyone had a bite of the cake excluding tejo who was busy clearing the left overs.
As the investors left towards the front exit accompanied by angad and tejo, he rushed to the meeting room to check if there were any pakodas left in the tiffan brought by his ex wife who is a marvelous cook. Naah! It was empty.
6 pm.
He dropped angad at the hotel and later continued his journey home.
He immediately pressed the emergency brake when he saw her walikng at the roadside to her home. Two guys approached and were teasing her. She avoided them and continued her journey.
Hey ! Tumhari himmat kaisey hui meri biwi ko chedney ki! He rushed forward towards the guys, furiously. They ran as they saw him approaching.
Tejo walked towards him.
He smiled thinking she will be touched with his defense mechanism and compliment him
Fateh! Main tumhari biwi nehin hun! . She walked away again.
Ouch!!! That hurts.
9pm virks residence.
Second day in a row with a bowl of noodles. Jasmin exclaimed she was tired and went to her room to surf the net on his lap top.
Ring!! He picked up at the fourth ring
Fateh ! Tmrow party at a dine in. Details will whats up to u. One of the investor's birthday. Angad's cheerful voice over the phone.
8 pm the next day at a dine in.
His dark eyes were set on her as she entered the restaurant. That beautiful black sari wrapped around her slim figure looked delightful. She greeted everyone politely.
Jasmin was annoyed seeing her and walked away as tejo approached one of the guests in conversation with her ex husband.
Minutes later, angad pulled everyone to the dance floor. She swayed with the moves as she held a guests hand trying to dance along. He couldn't take away his eyes from that bare waist and hot figure wrapped in the black sari. Sudden pressures were building and suddenly he felt the erection and rushed to the gents.
Half hour later
Jasmin looked for him everywhere. He was not in sight. A waiter informed seeing him going to the washroom but didn't return.
Fateh! Tum thik ho! She was shocked to see him perspiring head to toe . Standing near the wash basin washing his face and hands. His eyes red . His looks were lustful.
She was confused
It was merely the consequences of losing a wonderful wife.
