Author's POV

" Where's my blue shirt ? "

" i can't find my watch "

" Why is my pen isn't ironed yet ? "

" Is breakfast ready ? "

" I'm getting late kou " Before Sanjiv can spell Koushalya's name for another time his eyes meet with her glasses.

Koushalya's was standing at the entrance of their bedroom leaning on the door, while Sanjiv standing in front of dressing table wrapping a towel around his waist. Water buds were flowing from his head to till his V line.

" What ? Stop staring at me and start helping me koushy, I'm getting late " Sanjiv said with a frown.

Koushy shook her head and walked inside with a 'done with it ' look. She went to his closest and took out his blue shirt along with a gray pent, which was ironed afcource.

Hending his clothes to him, koushy went to the dressing table and took out his watch from the first drawer and put it on the table glaring at him.

Sanjiv stood there scratching his neck in unease. Everything was in it's usual place yet Sanjiv's eyes couldn't find it and Koushalya did it in just few seconds.

Now it become a customary task for Koushalya to find his own stuffs for him.

" Breakfast is ready to serve " saying this Koushalya left the room not even giving him a glance. Sanjiv sighed realising that she is still upset with him for last night.

Last night they had a small conflict. According to Sanjiv it's a small thing but for Koushalya it's really something big and embarrassing too.

Last night

Sanjiv comes home drunk, Koushalya was not surprised by this as she knows he drinks occasionally that too limited. But yesterday Sanjiv was a bit over than usual.

He was High in alcohol.

Eventually he started to make noises which disturbed their neighbours and they came to complain about it. It was one hell of a job to handle drunken sanjiv. He literally gave a glimpse of the worst level of himself.

For thank Koushalya was being angry with him, but her anger fade away passing time. Now she is upset, not angry. She is upset with him because he didn't tried to apologise nor he tried to convince her. She felt like she didn't hold any importance in his life, when he was ok with her silent treatment.

Slipping inside his clothes Sanjiv Combed his hairs in hurry, wearing his watch Sanjiv walked out of the room, in the middle of the stairs he remembered something. Hitting his forehead with his palms out of trepidation, Sanjiv turned and again walked to their room to get his office bag along with some files.

He cursed himself for being careless, he's already getting late for office and now his time is also messing up with him.

Checking the files by turning the Pages in rapid speed, Sanjiv came and sat on his chair to have breakfast.

He wasn't amazed to see the already served breakfast and his packed lunch box on the table. He looked for her, but she wasn't present there.

He expected this from her.

Not having enough time to convince her or maybe he didn't find it necessary to do it, Sanjiv started to have his breakfast. In a few minutes he had breakfast and stood up to leave.

Yet his eyes scanned the hall excepting to see her, but she wasn't there. Sanjiv shook his head in disappointment, taking his office bag and files as he went out.

Koushy came out from the kitchen as soon as she heard his far away footsteps.

Murmuring something under her breath koushy took the plates and went inside kitchen to do her routine chores.

It's been a month since Koushalya has quit her job, just because Sanjiv asked her.

According to koushalya everything is going well, they have become more comfortable with each other in this one month, in this meantime many things has changed, Koushalya's liking towards him changed into love. Her attraction for him turned into pure affection. but one thing is still remaining the same.

Sanjiv's dominantive nature.

She didn't confessed about her feelings to him yet, maybe she won't ever. Isn't it too obvious to fall in love with your husband ? Now in most arranged marriages it's a stereotype to fall in love with your suppose willing or not but you have to fall in love and let the world know about it, here Koushalya isn't exceptional.

She enjoys the feeling of admiring him, the feeling of loving him, although she is also waiting for the feeling of being loved by him.

It's just a first step in their relationship that Koushalya has taken. The step to love him and be friendly with him. She is waiting for his step as she didn't want to make him do anything out of force. He will do When he feels like, until then she can wait.

Koushalya was done with her chores including cooking too.

Being exhausted from all the chores Koushalya huffed while sitting on couch.

This is her routine, after sanjiv leaves for office, she does all the house chores although sanjiv told her to keep a servant but Koushalya denied saying she will get bored without doing anything.

Grabbing her mobile phone from the nearby stand she checked if Sanjiv left any messages or not. At least she expected him to leave a sorry message but whom is she even talking about ? Sanjiv.

Koushalya was annoyed with his careless behaviour, this is the first time they fought after marriage and he didn't even try to convince her.

She didn't speak a word to him from last night nore did he. She expected him to initiate a conversation, at least a sorry would have worked. But nothing happened like that. He seems to be normal, while here she is missing him already. She wondered if he even misses her ? If he does then, why didn't he try to talk to her ? Didn't he feel the emptiness in his heart ? Like she does.

Thinking all these Koushalya slept eventually as she was already exhausted.

Rest of them went like that, where Sanjiv was focused on his works. Not even for a second he thought to convince her. For him it's a normal thing. He already told her that he drinks occasionally, so why is she making it as a big fusse ? Sanjiv's other part boosts his male ego to accept that it wasn't his mistake and he too did that.

It wasn't a big argument between a couple, yet the ego and overthinking mind made it one.

It was mid afternoon when Koushalya's sleep got disturbed by some noise, waking up from couch Koushalya took a minute to get back to her senses.

The knocking sound of door gain her attention, Koushalya looked at the wall clock. It showed 3:17 of afternoon.

Her face bright up with joy thinking that it must be sanjiv, smudging her both eyes to get rid of the blurriness Koushalya ran to the main door.

But as soon as she opened the door her smile faded away seeing the person infront her.
