Nupur's Naukar
He was like a wounded tiger, ready to tear people to shreds
He wasnt an angry bitter man by nature, pretty even keeled, Nupur would goad him to his limit, he would ultimately laugh it off with a mocking "Hamey gussa dilaana band karen aap"
She would do everything possible to get him mad and it wouldnt happen
Even with Nihar he wasnt punishing or rough
Something about their exchange in his office was getting his blood pressure to peak
This was a new him, he hadnt encountered before
When work meetings didnt go his way or flights got canceled in the very last minute, he looked for things he could fix so it didnt happen again
"Ek din aapka yeh mizaaj khoob gusse mein phatne waala hai"
"Aap Nupur se dor raha karen" he ordered his Mom
"Amma mere se to gussa hotey nahi... aap koshish kar lein beshaq"
HE MISSED HER LIKE HELL
He went back to his desk and shut his eyes, the purple saree clouded his vision, the smooth as butter cleavage and the long slender neck
Nupur for being 5'8" had a short neck
Suvechha was barely 5'4" and had a neck like a swan
"There is nothing spiritual. Its all lust" she dismissed
"They all want a wedding ring dude" Naved's words rang in his ears
He couldnt bring himself to believe Suvechha was lying
She had looked him straight in the eys and told him she didnt care for his overtures
Her ear lobe tasted like candy, he had sucked on it after nipping it, he could still hear her moan in his neck
He was late picking up Nihar, Nihar wasnt angry just sad!!
He kicked himself for doing that to the kid
Gurpreet had sent karhi for dinner, he was reminded of not returning Suvechha's containers
He asked aunty to make aloo baingan and phulkas, and ate a good meal
The karhi was close, not a 10/10 like Nupur's but a 8 or a 9
He wondered how divorced men "got by" without sex, celibacy was killing him... slowly
He drove a tough bargain, letting her be 3 or 4 nights a month, he was willing to cook clean, fold laundry (HE HATED THAT)
Change a million diapers, in exchange for getting laid
Ulhas Vikram and naved's wife mocked Nupur "Kitni lucky ho tum, your husband is a male naukar"
He would take on a sorry expression as he did housework when her friends visited
"U sneaky beep" she would curse, as he mounted her at night
"It works for me" he would say smugly, beginning to fondle her
He was sick of going to bed alone and doing stuff alone
Emotionally he was chained to Nupur, there was no doubt about it, he wasnt even willing to open up with his Amma
But physically, he hadnt fantasized making love to Nupur for weeks now
It was a muggy still night, Gurpreet's mali had helped him plant 100s of plants between the terrace and the front yard
A few vegetables in pots in the concerete backyard as well, the mali was watering when he and Nihar drove into the drive way
when he lay in bed at night and shut his eyes, the image of Suvechha's panicked expression as she searched for Aadhya in the crowded conf room that first day came to mind
OR
The way her lips felt when he grabbed them the first time
Since last Saturday night, tava pizza night... HER CURVES
"U always loved women with big boobs" Nupur chuckled
"Ya and I wanted to do a hostile takeover of Apple and Google" he scoffed
"U are a liar Neel" she said in his thoughts
That rustic Neel that slipped out of Suvecchha's lips echoed in his mind
"Neel" he said softly trying to mimic her, sat up and then got out of bed, walked over to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of beer, and walked over to the terrace and looked up at the sky in agony
