"Goodmorning Pavika!" My mil greeted me when I was about to enter the hall..

"Goodmorning Athaya.."

Come here! Have your coffee.. she called me..

No- i just,

Come na she insisted..
So I went and sat on the chair and smiled..

Why you're late?

Don't you know how to follow the rules in the new house?

Didn't your mom told about this?

Huh!

Who will do everything?

Where's breakfast? What about clean-up!
Huh!

My eyes widened with her questions. Almost getting tears..

"Stop acting like a typical SaaS Uma.." Seeing my fil i got up from chair and wished him knitting my dupatta folding..

See how much she's afraid! You almost frightened her.. my fil said making me sit on the chair..

He poured some water from jar and gave it to me.. I nodded no ..
But he patted my head and said "take it.."

I gulped in one go looking at my mil I started coughing..

"Stop it," my fil said laughing..

"Why you spoil this my husband!" My mil taunted my fil..

Look at her atleast and stop your rehearsal.. he said to his wife..

What to do.. I'm not like my mil atleast.. so I wanted to try atleast to reach a single step of being SaaS.. you spoilt my efforts .. my mil said..

Oho you're telling my mom harrassed you? My fil asked glaring at her..

Nono Nandu.. I'm just kidding.. not everytime but sometimes she did, my mil said laughing at him..

Now stop glaring at me and have some tea..

What are you looking for? Now go and cook breakfast for everyone.. my mil ordered me..

Puri for me, dosa for your fil, and for your husband whatever you wish.. now I don't care about him anymore..

He is such a careless fellow I got as child.. Till now I handled him.. I can't handle him anymore.. Now I need some breath to take.. and rest from his chores .

Ok?

I nodded..

Cooking? Oh no I didn't even started alphabets in cooking then what will I do?

My eyes started searching for kitchen and I looked side way to find it and turned but I saw a maid coming along with the tray of food..

She smiled looking at me and I smiled back to her ..

As soon As the maid kept the tray of food I looked at my mil..

Glad I'm not like the bloody serial SaaS.. But I need my Dil to keep smiling in my house and spread it all around giving positive vibes..

He pulled me next to her and started serving my plate..

Till now naa I'm just acting.. don't worry I'm just writing a story , coz till now I'm restless since I got married I'm tired of running behind your fil.. After that I'm tired of looking at my elder ones and later your monkey, I mean my son who got married to you..

I never got time to grow up in my passion.. Now as this monkey got married, I got time for myself and now Im busy in writing novels..

I'll start sending them to Sunday magazines soon.. she said munching her breakfast..

I was still in shock.. till now all she did was acting?

My Athaya is not like those typical SaaS that I have heard about soo far..

When I kept silent without having anything, my mil asked me to have my food..

I thought to answer as it's tradition to not eat early than husband..

I'm waiting for anvesh.. I said looking at my mil..

She laughed.. Are men waiting for their wives anytime? Then why should we implement these rules only upon us?

Get updated with time my dear.. He will have his food. You eat now.. why to wait and make your health spoilt?

Eat eat he'll come.. my mil said patting my shoulder..

After having breakfast , I helped in keeping back the dishes while the maid started preparing lunch..

Pavika you go and take rest.. She will manage in kitchen.. my mil said..

Babu's tiffin left! Shall I bring it upstairs? Maid asked me..

No-no I'll take this, i said picking up the tray from her hands and so I went back to room taking breakfast for my friend.. sry now he's my husband right!

After going back to room and stood there to knock out or not!

Why should I? Afterall he's my husband.. No-no if he too strom into room without knocking will you accept? I asked myself..

After a long discussion with myself I finally decided to knock on the door..

I knocked twice But there's no response..

"Doors won't open until there's someone inside the room!"

I turned around to find anvesh fully sweaty washed out in workouts...

Is that for me? He asked..

I looked at him as he sighed me pointing the tray..

Yes yes I said.

Thankyou for this.. But it's not necessary.. I would have come down for having it.. why to stress yourself? He said as he walked inside the room..

BTW I need to go back to work.. he said..

Where I asked..

"Banglore..."

The previous company had called me. We have to get this contract like before.. previously I worked for the same japanese company and now they're insisting me to be their choice..

So the head called me..

Are you coming with me? He questioned..

Nope.. I said..

Well I expected this answer from you.. let me tell you one thing.. wife should be there with husband that's rule.. he said munching his breakfast..

Oh really?

Hey what are you doing? He asked while I grabbed his tiffin plate..

Then have this breakfast down on the dining table.. I'll put this back over there.. Go by yourself and have it Mr anvesh.. I said moving out taking the plate along with tray.

But what's the issue with my tiffin plate? He shouted licking his spoon as I was walking..

BTW thanks for saving my time and pls take this spoon too.. He shouted..

What? I turned as I my eyes fell on the plate.. " the empty plate"

Oh no oh no (background music)

No need to step back look I came you back see I have helped you bringing the spoon to you.. he said..

You ? I'll break this tray on your head.. I said in anger lifting it up..

Mommy help me 🥺🥺 your Dil is trying to kill me.. He started shouting..

I caught tray with on hand and covered his mouth with other one..

I'm just acting..

Pavika.. "Do whatever you want.." I just want you to irritate him more than he did to me.. my mil shouted back..
Which made me smile looking at my husband whose eyes turned as if he wasn't expecting this epic reply from his mom itself..

I smiled removing my hand on his mouth and fisted his collar.

He turned us at once, I removed my hand on his collar and tray was about to fall but he managed keeping it on the fish aquarium beside us.

Why did you cry? Last night.. he asked making me look at him..

Nothing.. I just got cry.. I said trying to escape from his hold..

I don't know why but if the reason behind those tears is me ! Then I'm sry... He said and gave space for me to escape..

Immediately I took the tray and ran as quick as I can.. my heartbeat raced like last night..

I turned back to see him already looking at me..

"I love to irritate you." ummach he said blowing a fly kiss 😘..

I fisted my hand in anger looking at his dances...

It's been afternoon, I was busy in drying my clothes which I washed while taking bath.

Uma uma..

It's not dad's voice! Pavika thought and came out to see it's anvesh who's mimicking in other tone..

Don't you have shame to call mom by name? I shouted walking to him..

My mom my wish what's your problem? He replied fuming..

You? I grunted almost to punch on his face. As he too walked closing the distance between us..

Stop stop! Till now I thought I have to handle one only but from here you too joined? My mil said hitting her forehead..

No Athaya he -!? I tried to explain..

Shut up.. how much time you need to pack my stuff? Don't you know I'm going back to work! Go and finish my package.. Anvesh grunted in fake anger showing his tongue and wrapped his hands around his mom..

Only your package? Won't you take your wife? My mil asked turning to his son..

Who said that.. BTW who am I to control one person's intrest? If she wants she can come.. I'm not going to impact her life mom.. anvesh said..

Pavika? What's your Choice? My mil asked me..

Athaya.. I don't have any choice.. but I don't want to stay with him.. he irritates me..

See I told you right! Mom you know me well.. so only me going to stay in banglore as I wish .. No rules nothing.. anvesh said in joy..

Pavika! It's time to start both of your lives to understand eachother.. In previous day's there's no privacy for newly wedded people..
Even though we had lot's of time we got engrossed with other works at home.. It's been 30 yrs since we got married and we still don't know few things about us ,my mil said looking at my fil who just arrived there..

Now we got time and you can see how we are coping with each other..
I don't want my Dil and son to be like us..

Go with him and enjoy the bliss of this precious time..

Athaya but I know him.. I said..

Yeah I know you Both were childhood friends but since when you know him? Just a couple of years back!

Over chatting 😅!

Chatting and living together is like two different paths! So go and pack your luggage ☺️😉..

I couldn't say no to her.. and finally agreed..

Finally two luggages were wrapped and went to the counter..

We stood looking at the gateway..

My mil hugged me before entering into airport..

"No rush for babies!"
Enjoy 😊🤠..

Babies?

It won't happen mom he's still in his own thoughts with his ex .. my mind spoke to itself as I faked my smile before saying bye to them..
