"Going to revenge me..?? In ur dream.. "he said with an attitude..

"Let's see.. I will make u run behind me.. "she said confidently crossing her arms against her chest with a sly smile playing on her lips..

"Give me my phone now.. "she said as stretched her right hand seeing him still holding her phone ... He extended his had which has her phone & she takes it from him, in the brief moment their hands brushed against each other & they felt an electric jolt passing through that part.. Rk was the first one to withdrew his hand back & madhu smiles at him shyly which extremely pissed him off..

**Ring - Ring**

Her phone starts crying as soon as it has reached in her hand... She smiled seeing the number flashing on the screen & happily picks up the call..

"Hey sweetheart.. What's up..??"she asked excitedly to the person on the line almost giving Rk a heart attack... Sweetheart..?? Who can it be..?? Her boy friend..?? Nooo.. His mind started to scream at him.. He didn't get why.. Is he jealous..?? Or possessive.. No, Never..!! He shakes his head & continued to hear the conversation..

"Seems like your tongue got tied, papa.. Y r u not saying anything..??"she sighs dramatically making Rk sigh in relief.. So it's her papa.. But calling her father sweetheart, that's quite crazy..!!

"Madhu... U r.. U r ok na..??"Malik asked from the other end, his voice filled with joy hearing his daughter talking him to like that after so many yrs..

"Malik.. Do you think ur daughter have gone mad...??"madhu asked faking serious ..

"I do.. "Rk mutters...

"No, I mean.. U r so happy today.. What happened... ??"Malik asked her..

"U got me married to such a darling person na.. Then how come I be not happy..??"madhu asked while grinning at Rk which made him roll his eyes.. Seriously this girl has gone mad..!!

"How r u, madhu, & how is Rishab..??"Malik asked her standing on the ninth cloud..

"I'm super good & Rish is also good.. "she said turning to other side, So his shocked expression went unnoticed by her...

"V will come there to see u soon.. Han.. Don't dare to touch the alcohol bottle in my absence.. "she warns him which made him chuckle softy..

"Ok bye.. I'm in office now..call u later, dear.."he cuts the call happy & confused at the same time thinking about the sudden change in her behavior..

"What.. ??"she asked him seeing him gawking at her as if she is some alien..

"Stop irritating me.."he said her flatly.. He doesn't get has she really gone mad or just acting..

"how did I irritate u, Rish..??"she asked innocently...

"This.. Stop calling me this.. "he said to her angrily..

"U don't like me calling U rish..??Can I call U rishu..??"she asked meekly ..

"What..??Hell.. No..!!"that would be the last name he wish to be called...

"Then it is Rish for me.. "she tells him..

"Stop ur acting.. What u r getting from doing this.. ??"he asked her sternly.. She is getting into his nerves..

"It's just I like to name ppl in my style.. Trish for Trishna, Sullu for sultan sir & mu.. "she stopped in mid way as the strong waves of her past hits her, making her look back into her dreadful days.. Not again.. She mentally sighs..

"Who r they.. ??"Rk asked her out of curiosity.. She looked him surprised for a moment before opening her mouth to answer him, wanting to divert her mind..

"Trishna is my friend & sultan was my professor... U know, trish only has time for ogling sullu sir & finally they both ended up together... It still wonders me.. "She said giggling with so much mirth in her eyes & he couldn't help but stare at her baby brown orbs which is hiding an ample amount of pain behind it..

"But I lost touch with them years ago.. "suddenly she sounded sad which brought him out of his trance..

"Y..??"he asked her completely forgetting that he is asking her questions that too about her personal life about which he never had any interest to know..

"After v shifted to delhi, V lost touch with each other... "madhu said, something went unnoticed by Rk that by passing each second her voice was coming down..

"Y u left this place... ??"he asked her but she remained silent without answering him & then he noticed that her face is going pale..

"Something bad happened which made me hate here.. "she said closing her eyes taking a long breath.. "but not anymore.. "she says as she opened her eyes, smiling at him... She stood up from the bed & walked to the door when he asked her "U r revenging me, aren't u...??"she turned back to look him frowning at her.. She smiled & says.. "My husband is not that dumb as if I thought.. Sometimes being sweetest to the most kadoos person is the best punishment one could ever give to him.. "she says winking at him...

"U r so annoying..!!"he says maintaining the frown on his forehead..

"I'm a so pleased to hear that ..."she said before leaving the room...

Time started to pass taking away the day time & bringing the night...

"Hubby dinner is ready... "madhu said as she poked her head inside their bedroom through the ajar of the door & saw her husband busy in his lappy giving no attention to the other things around him..

"Dinner is ready... "she yelled in top of her lungs so he could take his eyes off that damned thing at least few minutes...

"I will eat later.. "he says not taking his eyes off the screen..

"I'm hungry... "she said..

"U didn't eat..??"he asks her turning his head, looking at her..

"I was waiting for u.. "she said as if stating an obvious...

"Did I say u to wait for me...?? If u r hungry u have to eat... I have some works to complete.. "he said giving his attention back to the screen..

"U r taking like u r the only business man exists in this world even I'm the daughter of a business man but my papa always used to find time for me.. "she said opening the door widely, entering inside..

"I'm not ur papa & for ur kind information I'm not interested in spending time with u.."he tells her crudely..

"But I'm interested... V r newly married & u didn't even take me out at least for once.. "she complained..

"Madhu...pls.. "he curled his fingers into a fist to prevent himself from bursting out...

"Ok.. U will continue with ur work.. I will wait for u.. "she said to him..

"No need.. I said u go & eat.. "he tells her..

"I won't till u come.. "she said him..

"Stop being stubborn..."he said her furiously..

"I made special dishes for u & here u r eating ur laptop.."she tells him piqued..

"God...!! U r already adding oil to this burning fire.. U r enjoying my situation very well na.. Stuck between u & my parents.. Now pls.. Leave me alone if u have a thing called heart.. "he almost yelled at her..

"I do have a thing called heart & it doesn't allow me to leave u alone.. "she said as she walked out of the room, not wanting to irk him more..

Madhu walked out of the washroom after her shower & saw him settled on his side of the bed reading some business magazine...

Madhu went to the other side of the bed & lied down & few moments later the lights got turned off as rk too lied down to sleep leaving his magazine.. Madhu rolled to his side as soon as his head hits the pillow keeping her head on his chest & hugging him.. Rk got startled by the sudden action of hers & the moment he comprehend with the situation he pushed her off him but her death grip on him results in making him fall over her in that process.. Madhu now has her both hands on either side of his shoulders as he has his hands on either side of her head.. He gulped audibly at their proximity.. He has never been this close to a girl ever in his life.. Hell..!! he didn't even see deepali this close.. Madhu looked at him nervously as he breathed close to her face, as soon as his breath touched her face she closed her eyes, seeing her closing her eyes he got triggered even more & he doesn't know what influenced him that moment as he leaned & placed his lips on her soft ones, kissing her slowly & sensually, sucking on her lower lip demanding for entrance but her stubborn lips stayed still not ready to give in so easily.. A groan of frustration escaped from his mouth as he again tried to win over her, nipping on her lower lip making her moan & taking this as a chance he invade inside her mouth, kissing her deeply, caressing her soft spots with his tongue... Madhu started to respond to him slowly matching to his lips, kissing him back.. They kissed each other passionately forgetting everything, only concentrating on the present leaving the past & hurdles behind, living in the moment...As seconds passed they felt the lack of breath & parted away from each other breathing heavily.. The moment he left the contact with her lips everything came back hitting on him.. What he had just done...??!! How could he.. ?? He knows that he doesn't love her.. Then what happened..?? He just let his passion take over his senses.. He rolled off her & got off the bed to leave the room, madhu didn't stop him either...

Next morning Rk left from his home to office even before madhu wakes up, after what all happened previous night he was too awkward to face her... Last night was a sleepless night for him.. He felt it wrong,bad but miraculously his heart didn't feel so... Why..?? He doesn't get.. He didn't want to embarrass himself more before her so he thought to leave for work a little more early & also he has an important meeting that day...

Rk was going through some files when his eyes falls on his wrist watch ... It shows 8.55 AM.. There is still an hour more for the meaning to start so he thought to go through the presentation once again even though he had checked & confirmed everything last night.. He pulls down the zip of his laptop bag & to his sheer luck it found empty.. He started to flounder when he realized that he had left it in his home itself.. Damn..!! It would take half an hour to reach there itself & the traffic in the city would not help him either... He was about to get up his office phone started to ring & took the receiver in a hurry & held it close to his ear..

"Hello.. "

"Good morning Sir, Mam is here to see u.. "the receptionist said politely..

"Mam..?? Which mam ..??"he asked confused not getting who this mam is..

"Sir, ur wife.."

"Madhu..?? Y she is here...?? Is she alright..??"he thought..

"Tell her to wait there I'm coming down.. "he said as he hung up the call...

"Y r u here..??"he asked her as soon as he reached the reception, of course avoiding an eye contact with her..

"I came to give u ur laptop.. "she said by giving him his lappy which contains the important presentation...

"I don't know what made u run from there but at least try to concentrate on things around u.."he looks her amazed for a while.. How can she behave so cooly like nothing had happened..

"Thanks..."he said taking his lappy from her hand again making their hands brush against each other..

"How did u come ...??"he asked her...

"by cab.."she replied..

"Y didn't u take the car..??"he asked her confused... There r two cars in the porch one is for his personal use & other is just lying in the porch like a show piece.. Sometimes he will have a small drive on it for keeping it work.. That's it.. He wonders what's the need of her hiring a cab when they have their own vehicle.. ??!!

"I.. I don't know driving.. "she said, but by just looking at her face anyone can clearly say that she is lying but he didn't want to dig more onto it so he just nodded ..

"R u coming to my cabin..?? Err.. Today I will leave office after the meeting get over.. "he said hesitantly.. She smiled hearing him.. He just could have asked her they can go together after the meeting.. Y this dragging..?? ..

"What happened to u today.. ??"she asked him soon as they entered into his cabin..

"What..??"

"U didn't burst out at me yet.."she said to him as if reminding him...

"This is office.. "he tells her calmly..

"oh... Ur employees don't know u r a kadoos..??"she asked him.. God..!! She started again when she will learn to control her big mouth... Seems like she has one big mouth for only purpose.. For irking him...

"This is my office & I don't like bringing my personal things into this.. "he said her & every single time he brilliantly escaped from looking at her eyes..

"May I come in sir... ??"they heard the voice of a young lady from the door side..

"Come in.. "rk said & the moment she stepped inside madhu's eyes widen in shock & surprise so the lady's..

"Madhu..??"she calls surprised..
