Chapter 33

(Not edited)

Adith's POV:

        I was exhaling a lot to fight away the emptiness in me. Even though my whole family was around me I felt empty. Tapping my foot I impatiently waited for my wife.

              Krisha came inside holding Aarav in her arms. "What happened to you daddy? Why are you so grumpy? " she asked him. "I'm chleepy." Told my boy huffing at the same time winked at me.

             I laid down on my bed facing the other side as if I knew nothing. Actually, I told Aarav not to sleep and act as if he was sleeping. So when Krisha gets up from bed he could catch her red handed and make Krisha sleep in our room.

           Aarav nodded his head and agreed with me, I was mentally happy to have such a son who could help me like this. After few minutes I felt some moments so I turned to Krisha. She kissed Aarav's forehead ruffling his hair and was about to leave the bed. I expected Aarav to grab Krisha's hand but he didn't. She got up from the bed still Aarav didn't move. Finally, she left my room leaving me to frustrate.

             I looked at my loving son, he slept for real.

    Ada paavi...

         I had to plan big with the help of him and he had to sleep for real. Mg son was an idiot just like me. I decided to wake him up this time so I started disturbing him.

               I shook his arms but no response, then I blew air on his ear still no response "Aarav... Little chicken... Aarav... Get up.... See Krisha went away go and call her. Aarav..." I called him still no response. At last I spanked on his cute bum.

         He got up and sat abruptly, looking around her searched for Krisha. "Great buddy... Now let's call your mom. " I kissed his cheek and took my phone but before I could call her, Aarav's face turned red and he was at the verge of crying.

         "Babyyyy...." Without any prior notice he ran to the guest room, and I followed him.

    " Dei... Nilluda. (Hey... Stop)" I tried to stop him.

           He jumped on Krisha and buried his face into her neck then she consoled him and put him to sleep. I sat right before the guest room holding my head.

       I shouldn't have trusted a three years old kid even though he was my son. I didn't want to face Krisha and spoil her sleep so without any options I went back to my room.

            Opening the closet I looked at her picture sticked inside it. She was so beautiful in that picture and I clearly remembered that day.

FLASHBACK

                    After our wedding dad helped us and dropped us in the new apartment he brought for me. Krisha was still upset worrying me.

                    We were currently in the third floor and it was an seven story building. My flat has a living room,  two bedrooms with attached   bathroom , a kitchen, a dining area and a common restroom. The flooring was white and we could see our face in the floor.

                The whole space was empty and we only had a floor bed in our room. I got a call a from my dad. "Hello... Yeah dad. " I answered.

           "I hope everything is okay Adi... Your mom is still mad we will console her later. I had no time to set your house so you do it with your wife. I placed an induction and the basic necessities in the kitchen. Take care." Told my dad.

            "Dad, I love you." With that I hung the call.

            I went into the kitchen and boiled milk, pouring it in a glass I went inside my bedroom. Krisha was sitting in the bed.... Sad. I didn't liked it.

              I gave her the glass of milk and fell on her foot. "Hey... Adi what are you doing get up Adi..." She screamed.

           "I'm doing the ritual since you didn't do it. " I told her and that brought a smile on her face. I sat next to her and pulled her to my lap earning a smack on my shoulder.

         "Tell me what is your problem?" I asked her.

        " what problem?" She asked me in a low tone.

            "Krisha... I'm your husband and we are legally wedded. You are my responsibility and moreover I love you. I want to make you happy but how can I do that if you are upset like this. Talk to me, I'm here to listen your heart and all your complaints." I told her.

          She leaned her head on my shoulder pressing her back and I hugged her from behind. "Everything happened in a blink of an eye Adi.... You know.. I imagined a lot about our wedding. I had a dream." I clenched my jaw and asked her "so you are not happy about our wedding?"

             "Are you mad? I'm happy at least we are married somehow. Paatima is also bed ridden, if she was active she would have definitely helped us. " she said and a few drops of tears fell on my hand.

         I wiped her tears and told her " Babe... You can't change anything now. It's already pre written. This is our present. We and us. Just think about us everything will fall into place one day. Even after many obstacles and struggle we are together today. We have to celebrate. " I kissed her cheek.

           "I'm sorry. You have to go through so much in jail because of me. I'm sorry." She cried again.

             "Aarrrggggg... Not again. Krisha you look so bad and ugly when you cry so don't. Please. " I tried to irritate her.

          "Oh really... Hey mister you don't have any other choice you have to look at me and only me I'm your wife now. " she threatened. We paused for a second and we both burst into fits of laughter.

              "You didn't eat properly, at least drink the milk." I told her.

              "No no... We have to share the milk. You drink half and I will drink the rest. It's a ritual. I have seen in many Tamil movies. " she told me. I didn't want to hurt her feeling so we shared the glass of  milk.

            "Look at the irony Adi... We have so many relatives to guide us still we are learning from Tamil movies." She told me and I decided yo pull her legs "Every newly married couples needs privacy idiot but here my wife wants guidance... Well guidance for what Krisha?" I asked her she started beating me with the pillow and finally she started laughing her heart out.

             "Adi... I'm starving." She told me.

         "I told you to drink the milk fully. Wait, I'll grab another glass of milk." I was about to get up but she stopped me.

             "I don't want milk... I want something to eat." She gave me her puppy dog eyes. We both went into the kitchen. Thank god we found Maggi.

         "You go out, I'll make it." With that she pushed me out, meanwhile I searched for a plate and I found one then fished out a spoon.

              "Adi... Come and taste." She called me.

              It looked very appetizing, I had a spoon of Maggie but couldn't open my mouth "How's it?" She asked me and I gave her a impossible look.

      That was the horrible maggie I ever tasted in my life....

          "Krisha... I beg you please don't make Maggie in your life time after today. As a husband give me your word that you'll not make Maggie come on... promise me. " I asked her after spitting the maggie in my mouth.

        "Why Adi... Is it not nice...?" She asked me innocently.

        "Ulagathulaye unna vida oruthi kevalama indha maggie ya panna mudiyadhu d. Ni idhaye ipdi pannina appo mathadellam.... Ni vera enda dish aachum mosama pannirundha kooda paravala... Maggie... Adhu varalaya unaku? Ayyoyo... Unna avasara pattu kalyanam pannitano....!  (No one can make such a horrible Maggie than you in this whole world. If you can't even make a two minutes noodles how will cook for me?)" I exclaimed.

      But that noodles was truly horrible.

        "Stop making fun of me. It's not that bad. " she glared at me and had a spoon only to spit it at the instant. I started laughing and soon she tried to beat me we were running in our whole house. And finally, I sat leaning on the living room wall and she rested her head on my shoulder.

           "Adi.... I'm hungry. " she said. I kissed her head and went inside the kitchen to make my style Maggie. That was the first time I cooked that too for my wife. 

            She sat on my lap and I fed her Maggie. It was indeed delicious and I earned a kiss from my wife. Fortunately, I sealed the moment with a priceless selfie... My Krisha and I.

          I just wanted keep my wife happy, satisfy her in every way possible, shower her with love and affection, she threw her parents and whole family for me. She was my family and I would take care of her. Krisha - the love of my life.

END OF THE FLASHBACK

          She was my life, I loved her in every way possible I was so keen about her every needs then where did I go wrong? How did I left her to suffer? That one thing was killing me alive even though she was at fault.

          With no sign of sleep I sat on my living room couch and watched news.

           I felt a soft lips on my cheeks waking me up, I opened my eyes to the beautiful smile of my little chicken.

             "Daddy... Whvy arev yovu chleeping herve?" He asked me. I gave him a curt look and made him sit on my tummy. Narrowing my eyes I told him "You slept for real last night."

         He tapped his chin with his finger and pouted. "Cholly(sorry)" he became instant sad. "My little chicken don't be sad it's okay... Cone on smile..." I tickled him making him laugh. "I love you. I told him.

             "Love youv" he kissed my cheek. I had to go to office that day but I was totally tired and my heart was heavy. I wanted a comfort. I wanted a shoulder to lean on. Aarav left with daddy for his morning walk.

                I went into the kitchen and saw my mom working... I didn't know why my eyes pooled, sitting on the kitchen chair I looked at her. I also left my mom to suffer, I didn't care about her. I thought she went along with her brother Anand supporting Krisha. She raised me up with so much love but I failed as a son.

             "What do you want? Get out I'll bring coffee. Don't sit in front of my eyes. " she shouted. I knew it was not from her heart and she loves me a lot.

              I kept looking at her, "The nerve of you. " she took a spatula and came to beat me but I told her "Maa... I didn't have lunch or dinner yesterday. I'm hungry. " I was really hungry and was feeling totally down.

         She stopped abruptly. Her eyes pooled and lips woobled, she quickly unmolded the idlys and served it with the chilly chutney she made. She placed the plate in front of me but I didn't have it. I kept looking at her.

          Slowly she started feeding me a morcel and I ate it from her hand after many years. Her tears were flowing freely and I decided to hug her.

            I was sitting on the chair and my mom was standing, I hugged her tummy somewhere I resided. My tears finally started falling down and I cried my heart out.

             "I'm sorry maa. I'm sorry... I don't know... I thought... I was never a good son... You should have aborted me in your tummy itself... I made you suffer.. I don't know.. I'm sorry... Please forgive me..." I kissed her knuckles.

               "Shut up Adi... What are you saying... You are my life.. Don't talk like this. It's okay.. I already forgave you. Calm down my baby... Calm down... Your maa is with you. Stop crying. " she consoled me.

            "Aladha da yen chellame... Un thappu illa da.. Paravala... Ni aladha. Sapdu... Vaaya thora... (Don't cry my boy, please it's not your fault. Don't cry. Eat... Open your mouth.) She fed me. I went along with my mom to the guest room and laid on her lap. My heaven, my mom's lap. Slowly sleep overtook me.

          " Daddy.... Daddy... No daddy... No jechen(injection)" Aarav was crying badly.

                "What injection is this nurse. Wait... I want to meet the doctor before you inject my son." I told her and left the room along with my son.

    What's Aarav's health issue? For what they were prescribing so much medicines, my son looks healthy for me. I felt something wasn't right.
