Part 3

Astha woke up with heavy, swollen eyes. For a moment she felt disoriented and then everything came back. Her wedding, the previous night, her argument with her husband. Heaving a huge sigh of depression, she got up to shower and change.

She saw that Shlok was still asleep when she went down. It was barely 6:30 yet she had to get up and start the preparations for the day. Her mother in law had made it amply clear that Astha was expected to get up early and get the daily chores done. Her status as a bride of one day did not matter to her mother in law. What can she expect? Her mother in law was after all Shlok's mother. Huh! Like mother like son.

She went about quietly finishing the kitchen duties. Preparation for the morning puja was next on the agenda. When she was turning off the gas, her MIL came in. "I hope the breakfast is done. Sahib will come down for the puja in half an hour. Get the mandir ready by then."

"Ji Sasubai." Astha knew it was futile to try and change the mindset of her in laws. If there was one common thread that was running between the three, it was their stubborn streak bordering on insanity.

The mandir was also set. Astha went back to the kitchen when Anjali stopped her. "Give this to Shlok." She handed over a steaming cup of tea.

Oh! the Lord and the Master has to be woken up with tea. How I wish I could throw this hot liquid over his head. Never know, it may even clear some clouds in that pea sized brain. Astha was fuming over the most unromantic thoughts over her husband when Anjali asked her to go up quickly. "Shlok does not like to wait. And don't take forever. You need to set the breakfast table."

Astha went up with the tray. She got in to see Shlok had come back from his morning jog. He was still in his tracks and t shirt. As ever his charming face remained khadoos. Astha went to him and gave the cup of tea. While he took the cup from her hand, his hand brushed hers. She jerked her hand away, in the process spilling some tea on her wrist.

"Aah!" She gave him the cup and caught her wrist with the other hand.

Shlok quickly placed the tea and started to take her burnt hand. "Don't touch me. I can take care of myself." Her voice came out in a strained whisper, full of pain.

"Suit yourself. If you need medicines, check the cabinet in the washroom." He drank the tea quickly and proceeded to the shower. Before he shut the door he only told this. "Make sure my breakfast is ready by the time I come down. I don't like to wait."

That swine! Arrogant, male swine! He is not even bothered about me and all he wants is his breakfast. I wish I could add some sweet poison to it.

Astha almost flounced down in her fury. How am I going to spend the rest of my life with this male chauvinistic pig? Bappa! Mujhe bachaa lena!
