Part 39 - 101 ways
Astha got up early the next day and quickly finished the household chores. She did not even wait to eat the breakfast. She set the table and informed Anjali that she wanted to meet her friend Ria. She said it was urgent. Anjali did not say anything sensing something was cooking. Sojal asked her if something was up. But Astha said she will come back and tell Sojal everything.
"Ria. I want to meet you immediately." Astha's voice sounded frantic over the phone.
"I am at home only. Why are you calling up so early? And what about Shlok? Is everything alright?" Ria sounded concerned.
"I will tell you everything in person." Astha cut the call abruptly and started to Ria's place.
"What are you saying Astha? All this happened? That too on the third day of your married life? Hmm. Okay. Hey I know what you need. Just a minute." She got up and rummaged through her cupboard. At the back of a heaped shelf she dug out a book.
"Here have this. It may be useful to you."
Astha took the books and read the title. Her face turned a deep shade of red. "101 ways to pleasure a man. What? How? I mean...Huh!" Astha was dumbfounded and she just stared at the book.
Ria started laughing at her best friend's expression. "Cmon! I got this as a stupid joke from Rahul. Thank god I threw it inside my bookshelf and didn't bother about it. See how useful it is today."
"Ria be serious. I want a solution for my problem."
"All you have to do is read this book cover to cover and act on some of them." Ria finished with a sly grin.
Astha shook her head in exasperation and joined in her laughter. Even if she didn't get a solution at least she was happy. Her best friend had returned her smile. They chatted for a while after which Astha wanted to leave home.
She came back home and went to her room. She closed the door behind her and opened the book. Out of curiosity she flipped through a couple of pages. Her eyes and mouth opened wide in shock. She never knew many of the things described in the book. Some of the pages even had illustrations.
Oh my God. How can I do these things with Shlok? When she reached hand cuffs and bondage, Astha decided enough is enough and quickly shut the book. Anjali called her down for lunch. In her hurry to go down, she opened Shlok's shelf and placed the book on the top rack. Astha skipped down for lunch with a racing pulse and high color.
Shlok came earlier than usual that day. He had forgotten an important file and he came into his room to take it. Astha was sitting by the window and writing something. He ignored her and went to open his shelf. They both had not spoken since morning. Though Astha looked like a ripe berry in her red sari, he had ignored his instincts and kept his hands to himself.
He opened the shelf and was searching for his file when his hands encountered the book. He took it out of the top rack and looked at it. He had never placed any book here. What was it? 101 ways to...WHAT??? His eyes almost popped out in shock. His Astha had kept this? She read this?? His sweet, innocent Astha? He was almost sweating with need and was instantly turned on seeing some of the content.
Astha finished filling the form and got up to go out. She noticed Shlok having the book while she was going out. "Shlok!! Give that to me." She tried snatching it from his hands but he held it high up. Astha was jumping up and down but he was too tall for her. She immediately got up on the bed to reach his hands.
His eyes were on level with her heaving chest. Both of them were suddenly aware of their stance and of each other. Astha blushed seeing the book in his hands. She got down slowly and decided to make use of the chance. Astha pulled Shlok towards him and kissed him on his lips. She parted his lips and brushed inside his mouth with her tongue.
Shlok groaned and the book fell from his hands. His hands automatically went around her. "Make a note Shlok. I am initiating our love making and I want you." Her voice turned breezed in to his ears.
"Hmm. By the way I like 13."
"What?"
"Of the 101 I liked number 13."
Astha placed her hand on her mouth in shock. Her eyes widened comically and she felt as if her whole body was on fire.
Shlok's let out a husky moan and pulled her tightly to himself. Astha could feel he was completely turned on. "Shlok.." her voice was pleading with need.
Shlok kissed her softly on the lips and spoke "I will have to unfortunately attend a meeting now. I will count every second till I get back to you. And we will explore more than 101 ways tonight. Be ready for me."
Astha's face flooded with shy color. She was completely tongue tied. She managed to nod before moving aside to leave him way. Finally it was Ria's book that had managed to solve her problem. She gave a wry chuckle at that thought and hid her face in her hands.
