CRASH
The loud noise filled the house as a bowl filled with gravy slipped from her hands. She looked around to see the gravy splattered all around the countertop and the glass pieces scattered on the floor. She held her hands on her chest to calm her racing heart as a similar memory from years back flashed before her eyes.
"What the...."
Baa came rushing into the kitchen to see the mess she had made. She was 3 months along with Toshu and had felt faint, the bowl of gravy had slipped from her hands.
"Sorry sorry Baa... I am sorry..."
"Can't you be atleast a bit careful? You spoiled the peace of the house so early in the morning... How useless you are...can't even drink my tea in peace."
Vanraj came running inside to see the scene.
"You broke glass so early in the morning? I have an important meeting today you idiot. I will not leave you if something wrong happens in the meeting."
He left in a huff. Baa turned to her trembling self.
"Stop shivering like a kid. Look you have spoilt his mood today. My poor son. Now don't simply stand. Clean it up. Quick. I want my kitchen spotless in 10 mins."
"ANU..."
She shook out from her reverie to see him coming inside the kitchen.
"Anu... are you alright? What happened?"
She shivered a little.
"Woh... actually I am sorry... I was in a hurry... I..."
He carefully went close to her and placed his hands on her shoulder. Gently he lifted her hands and examined it. Seeing it intact his gaze traveled to her feet where he identified a scratch from a shred of glass. She looked confused as he suddenly bent down to get a closer look at her feet.
"Anuj... what?"
"Shhh..."
Confirming that it was just a scratch and not a cut, he nodded satisfied. He gently blew on her wound and placed his lips on it. She closed her eyes in reflex feeling knots in her stomach.
"Better, now?"
She opened her eyes to see him glancing at her. She nodded silently. He picked up a tissue from the cupboard and slowly wiped away the gravy that had spilled on her waist. He deliberately took longer than necessary making sure that every time he stroked a bit of gravy off her waist his fingers grazed there too. She felt wave after wave of pleasure and warmth wash over her at his ministrations. Unable to stand on her own anymore, she felt her hands automatically clutching his bent shoulders for support. He looked at her all flushed and was thoroughly satisfied at the effect he had on her. Wanting to pleasure her further he placed his lips were his hands were previously gently sucking her. She moaned in pleasure. He grinned as a mischievous thought entered his mind. He pulled back suddenly and said
"You know I could do this all day but we only have half an hour before we need to leave for office. Let's clean up together. We can order gravy for lunch from your favorite 5 star dhabba. Ok?"
She snapped out of the trance he had put her in and looked away trying hard to not look flustered.
Together as they cleaned up the kitchen, she knew that he had successfully cleaned up the memory that had always given her pain.
