"What are you looking at ..it's a small house right?"madhu said

Madhu ignored him and unlocked the door.rk followed her collecting Thier luggage.

"Where is our room?"he asked

"Mr Rishab kundra...it's only my room not ours...I accept that I was worried when I heard the news and took comfort in you ...but that doesn't mean anything ... everything between us will be the same before we left to India..."madhu

"I understand it madhu...and I know you can't forgive me easily...but I will try hard untill you accept me",he said

She ignored his words.she pointed to a room and said.,l"that's my room but you can use it"she said

"And where should I put your luggage"madhu

Rk walked into the room and placed the luggage.he gawked the room and find out that it's her parents room.

"You are staying in your parents room?"rk

"Yeah..."madhu "there is only two rooms here"

"But what if your mother came here and see you at this room and not with your husband...don't think I am taking advantage of the situation..it might happen right?"rk said

Madhu thought for a few second and took the luggage and walked to her room.rk smirked at her without her noticing him.madhu dropped her luggage and sat down on the bed.he checked out her room and saw Salman Khan's pictures on the wall..

"You were a Salman Khan fan?"he asked 

"Yeah"madhu

"Me too"rk

Madhu ignored him .she opened her luggage and took out her dress to change and went to her room .rk sighed and sat down on the couch .after few minutes madhu came out freshen up.she went out of the room without patiy any attention to rk.he took out his clothes and went to shower.rk went out relaxed and walked out of the room to see madhu taking her food.he thought she might have made food for her..

"You can make your own food... everything is in kitchen"she took her dish to the kitchen and washed it.and went back to her room ignoring rk.

"You do this to yourself"rk muttered and made food for him.he went back to the bedroom after food and saw madhu sleeping on the bed and she had made a pillow wall at the middle of the bed.he smiled at her childishness and cherished her beautiful face

"She looks so innocent when she sleeps"he mumbled.a hair lock fell on her face .rk leaned to her face and tucked it behind her ear.she pouted in her sleep and rk wanted to kiss her senselessly..but he controlled himself and went to bed.soon tiredness took the toll and he fell into the Oblivion of darkness
