Vasant Vihar
Sunday
She is snuggling, he is cheating, checking texts and emails... she is half asleep... listening to the rythm of his heart... her pendant and a section of the black beads hanging off hs ribs, as she lay on his chest...
K:You are checking msgs?
S:Ofcourse not!!
K:Why hasnt your phone rang even once?
S: I have 43 missed calls & texts (grins)
K:ITNE saare?
S: Hmmm
K: How many from single desirable women?
S: Almost all... (smug)
K:Hmmm (snuggling) Are you taking them all out today?
S: No just one...
Frees one hand and lets it slide under her tee...
She smiles and shakes her head...
S: Trishna and Dhruv are in India, did you know?
K:Ritu was telling me...
S:Mom is trying to get them to come home for lunch next Saturday...
K:Hmmm
S:Holy crap! I had the vacation booked I think
She feels frantic texting
K:Hmmm
S:I have to... (stops, reads)
K:KISKA vacation (still laying on him)
S: OURS.
K:Main bhi? (slowly getting out of her drugged state)
S:Aaap BHI! (irritated)
She sits up...
Her hair is all around her, over her... pushes him to find her scuncie... he lets out a frustrated moan
S:What are you doing?
K: My scuncie...
S:Its in my pocket...
She starts feeling his pockets... he grins...
She smacks him on his belly...
K:Where are we going? (still looking)
S:Silhouette Island, Seychelles...
She stops...
K:I cant take off... (moans)
S:I wrote to Sabina, she is OK, AND to Ram!
Her heart skips a beat, she hasnt yet told him about commuting to Delhi once or twice a month,
She gets off the bed and looks in the bed side drawer and finds one, braids her hair
K:How long?
S:I am guessing around 3 feet, (pulls her hair)
K: NOT my hair, the TRIP
S:A week?
K:Nahiii, to long...
He smirks and shakes his head while he texts...
S: I cant, its all booked...
K: You are not getting ur Bday prsent... (smug)
S:I think I got it! (smiles not even looking up from the phone)
K: Shantanooo
S:Khanak, you are allowed to take time off...
K:Thanks (sarcy)
S: Its only a week, thing will still be standing... or be dug up as will be in ur case at Sohna Rd.
K: Hmmm... I just afraid...
He looks up from the phone, finally
S:Of me?
K: Of us... (softly)
She has her arms wrapped around the bed post for comfort
He gets up, walks to her... she looks like a lonely child standing clutching the post...
S:I promise not to date other women... (smiles)
K: Thats not good enough (smiles weakly)
He bends down, he is behind her...
She feels his arms...
S: Hmmm... I promise to keep my texting out of the bed...
K: Sometimes it feels like we both hate each other...
S:What about other times?
K: We cant have enough of each other? (husky, carressing his hands on her belly)
S:Good! Looks like we agree...
Pause...
K:I am going to go take a shower...
S: Can I give you one?
She gently untangles her fingers, turns around to face him...
K:You dont know my ancient soaping ritual...
S:I took a History class in Grad school...
K: It cant be witnessed by men... (smiles)
S:I want to be a player (not a spectator)
K:There are penalty points if you lose...
S:I am willing to gamble... (gently undoing her hair again)
K: I just did my hair...π³ (groans)
S:I saw...π³
Just as he lifts her, his phone rings...
