Swara's POV-

The dinner was uneventful but indeed, mom got a lot of dresses for me, both traditional and casuals.

" I love the dresses mom. Thank you so much!" I exclaimed.

" I am glad that you did. Now let's go and have dinner. You dad and Adi are waiting in the dining room." She said and I nodded.

We then walked into the dining room where they were watching cricket.

" Let's eat now." Mom said, grabbing their attention.

We had the dinner while the game was on.

" Out!" I shrieked as Rahul got out and I was frustrated!

" More more cricket fan in the house." Mom said, looking at me and dad and Aditya started laughing.

" Unlucky you." Dad said and I looked on confused.

" Mom wanted a daughter in law to give her company in watching serials and all. She got the opposite." Aditya clarified.

" Don't worry mom, I also like watching serials. We are going to have a marathon." I replied.

" Yes of course! She watches anything! Cartoons also." Aditya taunted.

That was uncalled for! He did not have to tell this to mom and dad!

" So what? Watching cartoons is completely okay. At least she is not boring like you." Mom told Aditya.

Ha! my NEW PARTNER IN CRIME! Take that Mr. Husband!

" That's not good Amrita. You cannot call in boring. He is workaholic." Dad added.

Good Swara good, now his whole family loves me and is taking my side!

After that, we left for home.

It was late that we reached and I was damn tired!

" Goodnight." I said and started climbing up the stairs to go to the bedroom but I somehow slipped and fell off six stairs.

" Ouch! I am dead!" I started shouting, gripping my back.

" Swara, fuck!" He came to me and bent down.

" Let me see." He said, gripping my leg.

He had a look at my leg and started doing something with it which hurt bad.

" Stop.....ahh...leave it!" I screamed.

" Wait Swara." He said and did something with the leg and it stopped aching considerably.

" Thank you." I muttered and I attempted to get up but I couldn't. My back was gone.

" Wait." He said and lifted me in bridal style.

" Put me down! I can walk!" I exclaimed.

It was so awkward!

" Swara...stop being stubborn and let me help you." He said.

I closed my eyes.

He put me on the bed and went out of the room.

He entered again with a box.....first aid.

" Now Swara, I want you to list your top up to your waist so that I can put the spray." He said and I hesitated.

" Give me the spray. I'll do it." I told her.

" Swara, you'll end up stressing it more. Let me do it. I promise the close my eyes while I apply the spray." He said, looking at me.

Looking at him, I contemplated my options and ended up finding out that I had none.

" Okay but no cheating." I said.

" No cheating." He repeated and I rolled over and lifted my top.

Few seconds later, he applied the spray and his hand slightly brushed my waist, giving me butterflies in the stomach.

" Done." He said and I pulled the top down.

" You can open your eyes now." I said and he looked at me.

" Why do you have to be so careless?" He questioned.

" It was an accident!" I defended myself.

" Swara, you could have ended up more injured than you did. Falling from the stairs is way too dangerous." He said and I rolled my eyes.

" What would have happened....I would have died. What else!" I exclaimed, kidding.

" It's very easy to just say that for you isn't it? It's all a joke going on here right?!" He shouted.

" Excuse me? Why are you shouting at me? It wasn't like I pushed you. I was the one who fell down so relax!" I exclaimed.

" You are my responsibility god dammit!" He said, getting worked up.

" No, I'm not and this is the last time I am going to tell you this. No get out. I want to sleep." I said, slowly losing my temper too.

The nerve of this man!

" And I have told you a million times that you are my wife, hence my responsibility. Do you have slightest of idea that you could have taken a hard hit on the head and have internal injuries?" He questioned.

" Listen Mr. As*hole, stop talking to me like that and the point is, nothing happened to me of that sort. You are just for some reason over reacting." I told him the truth.

I don't seem to understand why he is getting so angry! Take a chill pill man!

He went out of the room leaving the lights on and the door open.

What the hell!

" You come here right now, switch the light off, shut the door and then go." I shouted but no response.

I groaned and decided to do it on my own but before I could step down out of the bed, he was back in my room and lifted me in bridal style again.

" What are you doing?? Put me down!" I shouted.

" Stop shouting." He said and got out of my room.

" Leave me." I said hitting his chest with my fists.

" I am taking you to my room so that I can be there if you require help. Now stop your feeble attempts to hurt me." He said, without looking at me.

" No no no.....I need no one's help. Specially not yours. All you do is keep shouting on me! If this had been your profession, you would have been a billionaire by now......but wait, you are already one." I said, pouting.

" I really don't know weather to laugh at you right now or be mad." He said, looking at me.

This was the first time that I saw his eyes so closely and they were encaptivating.

Dark brown orbs and doe shaped eyes....wow! They were so deep and magical that I could go on writing a novel....wait! What the hell Swara? Why are you like this??

" What about leaving me alone?" I asked, breaking the eye contact and returning to my old self.

I liked this me better. 

"He said nothing and we entered his room.

It was just like him....boring!

Grey walls everywhere with a king sized bed with a grey couch at the side and dark brown furniture. Typical manly.

" How do you even live in such a depressing room?" I asked, amazed.

" I think I like my room. Thank you very much." I remarked sarcastically and I rolled my eyes.

He then put me down in the bed.

" Seriously Aditya....I was way too comfortable in my room." I confessed honestly.

" Swara, I cannot leave you alone. The swelling on your waist is going to go worse and you won't be able to walk for sometime. I'll call the doctor tomorrow morning to have a look and prescribe medicines." He told me.

" Honestly....there is no need of a doctor. I'll be alright by morning." I lied.

I absolutely hated doctors and medicines. They tasted yukk!

" We will let the doctor decide that Swara. Now I'll get a pain killer of you so that you sleep well." He said and walked out again.

" Guess I am struck here for tonight!" I talked to myself and looked around. 

There was a huge balcony attached to the room. Had I not been in this state, I could have gone to see it.

Soon, Aditya was back with the medicine.

Without further arguments, I took the pill and had it with water.

Then after I lied down and Aditya pulled the blanket over me.

It smelled of him. Lemon and wood.....strange but good.

" Goodnight." I said and drifted to sleep after hearing a faint reply.

///

The next morning, the pain had turned worse.

" How are you feeling?" I asked Aditya who was all dressed to go to work.

" Okay." I lied.

" You're not a great liar. Actually, you are one of the most bad liars I have ever met." He replied and I looked away.

" Fine....it hurts bad." I confessed.

" So I knew that's why the doctor is on his way." He told me.

Having no option, I decided that I'd let the doctor see me. It will only help with the pain.

" Okay." I said and attempted to get up.

He helped me standing up and I tried to go to out of his room to mine.

" Where are you going?" He asked.

" To my room." I said.

He lifted me in bridal style again.

" Aditya, I can manage. Also, I don't weigh 5 kgs so put me down and let me walk." I said but as usual he ignored me.

In my room, he put me down and I walked inside the washroom to freshen up.

Soon I was done and came out to see doctor talking with Aditya.

He helped me sit down and then the doctor asked me to list my top to let her observe my condition. Aditya had already walked out of the room.

" My god. You've hit the floor hard Mrs. Kapoor." She said.

Damn! It felt so weird to be addressed as Mrs. Kapoor!

" Yes doctor and please call me Swara." I requested and she nodded.

" Well Swara, it's good that you did not get any fracture but you need to take as much bed rest as possible so that you get healed easily. Also, I am prescribing some medicines for you to take them on time. Happy and speedy recovery." She said, exiting the room.

I believe that she'll hand  the prescription to Aditya.

He walked in my room in the next five minutes.

" Swara, the doctor has prescribed a few medicines and a staff has gone to get it. Please have food on time and avoid walking as much as you can. The housekeeper will get everything for you tn the room so just sit and do whatever you want to without walking. I am leaving for work because of an important meeting. I'll try to be back soon." Aditya instructed.

" Okay. Thank you and also, have a good day at work." I said, looking at him.

" You seem oddly satisfied that I am leaving you alone." He remarked.

" Obviously! I'll not hear more lectures from you!" I exclaimed.

He just gave me a glare and I rolled my eyes.

" Bye." I said.

" Bye. Take care." He added and went away.

Till lunch time, I had kept myself entertained with movies and then after eating I slept for good tow hours and woke up at 5.

" This so so boring! Why did I fall!" I exclaimed and whined.

Having nothing to do, I called up mumma and talked to her for an hour without telling her about slipping or she would have panicked.

Then I also called Aryan and talked to him with Tanya on conference.

That's how I passed the next two hours and it was 7:30.

The pain had considerably lowered and I could manage to walk to the restroom all day without any help.

I was playing subway surfers when Mr. Husband got back from work.

" How are you now?" I heard him ask me.

" Much better. Thanks for asking." I replied and then looked back at the screen.

" I'll freshen up and then get dinner." He said.

This grabbed my attention.

" Please let me go down. The whole day I was confined in this room and now I 'm bored. I promise that I'll walk carefully." I asked him, with my best puppy eyes.

He thought something for a moment and then agreed.

" Fine, but let me come to your room to help you. Don't go alone." He said and I agreed.

He went back to his room to freshen up and was back here in twenty minutes.

" Let'a go." I said, balancing myself on my feet but he sweep me off and picked me.

" I can walk." I told him honestly.

" I know but the doctor has asked not to let you take the stairs." He told me. 

Once we were down, he let me be on my feet and I walked slowly to the dining table.

He served me dinner and we ate.

I had no idea that I was this hungry.

Then, washing my hands, I walked till the stairs and he picked me up again but this time, did not let go off me after the climb and took me straight to his room.

 " Aditya, I am okay! I can sleep in my room." I resisted.

" Please Swara, just for my satisfaction." He almost pleaded.

Wow! Aditya Kapoor pleading in front of me! That's a first.

" Fine." I said, not wanting to pick a fight.

Well, If he wants to torture his back by sleeping on the couch, I can't help it!
