Tough lessons
She worked most of the Wed morning, after her shower, wearing a lovely pink kurta and cream chudidar. Her hair braided sensibly
She sang a kriti lit the lamp wore the holy ash and turned up like the "Iyer girl next door"
he did too she didnt see him until Noonish, she was way behind in work... she was focused and meticulous like she always was
She never let anything interfere with her work ethic, well nothing except Rakshasan ofcourse
She was on calls, IM and email all at the same time, while trying to fix a buggy solution the newly married dude had proposed for some Punjab tariffs
Mahavir brought her yummy croisandwich, with cheese roasted bell pepper and onions, some had avacado in it with the onions... she had three with mint chutney
Toasty, warm... with chai
She took her 4th and peeked into his room
He was not on a call, just reading a spiral bound file with screen shots of a SW tool?
He saw her and smiled
"Not on a call?" she reassured herself
He shook his head
HE NEVER SPOKE. PERIOD.
I mean when he could use his hands or face he didnt
"did u try this?" she asked hesitating
He pulled her in
Her heart skipped a beat at that open acceptance
He played with her choora not letting go of her wrist
"Did u eat this?" "THIS IS SO YUMMY" she smiled
"I had these with turkey" he admitted running his hands through his thick glossy curls
She looked at him enviously
I AM LOSING MY HAIR AFTER EVERY WASH, YOURS ONLY SEEMS TO GET THICKER
DABUR AMLA USE KARTE HO KYA?
YA PARACHUTE HAIR OIL
She bend down and inhaled
NEITHER
He dragged her down
"U have good hair" she declared
"Sorry?" he was confused
"Tumhare baal achhe hain" she mumbled, blushing self consciously at having to compliment him suddenly
He turned and looked at her deeply, taking her left hand, since she had to eat her snack
And leaving it on his curls
"I know how it feels" she scoffed
"u do?" he whispered
He bend down and kissed "Lunch?"
"Umm"
FEAST ON ME?
I AM OK...
GO RIGHT AHEAD DUDE
UMM... APPA WILL MISS ME
BUT THATS OK
"Did u get some work done?"
"Is it ever done" she sighed and yawned
she ate quietly, hiccuping, he gave her his water, he drank 20 bottles a day or more?
He leaned and inhaled her vibhuti... felt it with his thumb..
"Ummm" she mumbled unsure what she shud say
"I am going to see the baby at 3 chalogey?
I am meeting someone in NOIDA at 4, maybe later?
HE PROBABLY WANTS TO AVOID APPA
AFTER BALDIE GOES TO MUNIRKA I BET HE WILL GO MORE
SHE SUDDENLY FELT BAD FOR APPA
"i dont think Appa will be home" she blurted
AYYYOOO
WONT YOU EVER... I MEAN EVERRR SHUT UP??
DO U HAVE TO SAY EVERY f**kING THING THAT CROSSES YOUR MIND?
I MEAN EVERY GODDAMN THING?
HE?
HE DOESNT TALK WHEN HE IS SUPPOSED TO
AND U NEVER SHUT UP
"I have a meeting" he bristled
"Hmmm" she leaned back, not believing him
"I hope to write to her tonight asking for time off..." she quickly changed the topic
He was not happy, typed a note furiously on his laptop
"Na varen" she said "I better go"
He quit typing... "I can get there by 6 if I am able to take DND" he offered
she nodded...
YA LIKE DND IS GOING TO BE EMPTY AT 6??
SO U LIE TOO, EXCEPT U DO IT IN YOUR WORDLESS RESERVED WAY
ATLEAST ONE THING IS CLEAR U DONT LIKE APPA
I DONT LIKE MANYA
THERE!!
WE ARE EVEN
PORUMA? (GOOD ENOUGH?)
"I better go" she smiled, picking up the half of her croissandwich... he held her wrist and ate off it...
"U already owe me something for putting the ring on you, now I have fed you" she mumbled
"We can add to it" he offered
"Epdi?" (How?) she asked startled
"U cud give me a shower, clothe me?" he offered
"Umm... ya... umm.. uh..." she felt soft creamy color rush all over her face
RIIGHT LIKE I AM GOING TO STAND THERE AND SCRUB YOUR BACK
OR FRONT
OR WAIST
OR LEGS
OR ARMS
OR THAT SMUG FACE
OR UMM... U KNOW THAT SEXY UMM
GET LOST
I WOULD... RAKSHASANEY... I SO WOULD
FOR FREE
"Tonight then?" he extracted a promise
"sure... and every night after? Why not" she smiled mockingly... at the lack of a better repartee
He caught her off guard like that frequently
"And if Akka asks me why I got a present?" she stopped at the door way and turned to look
He half smiled
RAKSHASANNN!!!
I NEED TO SHUT UP
WITH HIM SILENCE IS THE WINNER
LEARN FROM THE BEST II

She went home after 8, she had texted Ranjan... he wasnt home yet
R&B and Bala drank beer in the balcony
"Nobody told me u are here" she looked at her husband, talking about Athim
"Taana tujhe de rahi hai mujhe?" Bala chuckled without looking back
R&B didnt respond, ofcourse it was for him
He bristled with possessiveness
"He texted me on his way from work" he explained to his nosy wife
"U never came to see the baby?" she whined
He walked towards her wrapped an arm around her waist... "I just got in"
"and didnt even check on me" she was unreasonably upset
He though, loved it
she changed into jeans and a tee
"HEY ATHIM" she came running
"Bhavna teriyum ille?" "On my team her family owns banquet halls" "I spoke to her and she said we could have the one in Panchsheel
And watched Bala's facial expression constrict...
"U never learn ur lesson do you?" R&B stared at his wife in shock...
