Ishaani's POV:

(Standing at the door)

It has been an extremely shocking start for the day today.

Early morning Maa came to my...I mean his ....I mean the room I am staying and woke me up with a smile.

I smiled back although I was warned!!!

Something creepy 🙄 My mom was smiling a little too much. She managed to come upstairs with that scrape bandage of ligament tear and was switching on the geizer and asking me to get ready.

When I was about to enter the washroom I saw mom packing yesterday's jewellery in my suitcase. I was confused.

While I brushed and was about to take bath mom knocked the door.

While I opened the door mom and daadi were standing there with a small bowl of turmeric paste...

I was confused 😳

She quickly applied it on my cheeks my hands and legs. Before I could react any further they said...

'Done!!! Now have bath 🙄'

I found it strange.

So I stood near washroom door and tried to hear them.

I heard Daadi talk to Soudamini Daadi
..

'Yes Damini... I applied Dev's jhooti haldi to Ishu hihihihi'

My eyes popped out 😳

'Are they doing the rituals like seriously 🙄 what are they upto🤭'

I chucked the thoughts and had a quick bath while I saw Soudamini Daadi with Ahaana standing with a big plate having sindoor, mangalsutra, jewellery, and a pink lehenga.

It also had a pink dupatta...

Daadi asked me to sit on a chair and asked Ahana di to give me the thaali.

Then Ahaana Di made me wear the dupatta

Daadi kissed my forehead and said...

'Welcome home Bahu (daughter in law)'

I don't know why I got so emotional hearing that... A girl wants this so much from her in law's that they give her the deserved respect, love and care...but here Kapoor's showered me with beyond love and care 💓

I couldn't help it...my heart swelled...my eyes were a pool that silently shed tears
..

Daadi and Di hugged me tightly 💓

Di's big tummy was interrupting but she still held me tightly.

I dressed up while my suitcase was made ready.

I had no idea what was cooking in my Daadi and Soudamini Daadi's head
🙄

And see now here I am...

Left with him...

Alone 😰😦😧

Shit!!!!

Soooooo awkward 😶

Dev's POV:

She was standing next to me till we waved bye to everyone.

But even after they were gone I saw Ishaani standing there.

I called her out 'Ishaani'...

She didn't respond...

'Ishaani' I called a little louder...

No response
..

So finally I touched her shoulder...

She flinched at once 🙄

I saw her gulp her saliva

Cute 🥰

'Can we go inside...they...they left!!!'

I told her while she looked elsewhere and finally nodded her head.

We went inside.

I closed the main door.

'Ummm..let...
Let it be op...
..open.... F...Fresh air c...c...comes in' she said...

I smiled at her nervousness.

I left the door open.

Soon I went closer to her...

That pink veil was still covering her face.

I went and stood in front of her and removed the veil from her face...

I saw her closely...

Her silky soft hair covered her neck and back ❤️

A few strands kissed her cheeks...

Her button like eyes were looking into my eyes now...

Her gaze had a different fear... Fear of being lost...fear of being acquired🔥

I wanted to acquire her❤️

I wanted to have her for me...

Those eyes were the most beautiful pair of eyes on this earth...

I can drown and die in them...

Her cute nose and her perfect jaws were shining today... Her cheeks were red❤️

She blushed hard due to our proximity.

Not once she lifted her gaze.

I smiled...

'Be comfortable Ishaani... relax' and took a step away...

While I heard her leave a breath

😂

She was hell nervous 🤭

Clock was ticking 12 pm afternoon.

'Ummm Shall we order something from a restaurant? It's too late to start cooking' I said...

'No... I'll make rajma chawal... It'll be done quickly!" She said.

While I went to kitchen asking if she needs help.

She was hell nervous... I could see it on her face.

I couldn't control my laugh 🤣🤭

'Ill I'll manage... You take r...rest!' she said trying to not meet my eyes once.

I was in no mood of going to bedroom...

I had such a beautiful wife to 'officially' stare at😉 who wants to watch tv😉😂

So I started my 'Taadna (staring) session'

To cover up and behave all innocent I opened my laptop and sat in the living room enjoying the lavish view of my beautiful wife who was in the same pink lehenga till now 😉

Daadi had asked us to wear the new dresses for the entire day as

'we are newly weds'

Little did she know newly weds don't wear...

Let that thought be 🙄

But she looked so beautiful in that pink lehenga.

Her black hair covering her deep pink blouse, her lehenga veil tied across her waist like a cross bag gave me an awesome view of her perfect mermaid body 😍

Such that now I blushed ☺️ thinking how crazy have I gone for this woman.

While looking at her leaning on the sofa chair I dozed off!

Sometime later I heard her low voice...

'Ummm... Mr Kapoor...Mr Kapoor.. lunch is ready' she said...

I rubbed my eyes seeing clock ticked 2pm.

I smiled seeing her beautiful face. Such a peaceful nap after so many years ❤️

'Lunch' she said...

I smiled and went to the dining table.

She served me some salad, Rajma Rice, pickle and aloo chatpata.

Every single item was lip smacking 😍

I ate really well without caring about my diet.

She cleared the table, did the dishes while I continued staring at her and finally dozed off again.

This time when I woke up it was 8pm.

She was nowhere nearby... She was not in kitchen too.

I was worried. I checked in all three bedrooms... Washroom... Garden...

She was nowhere
😰

I dialled her number... It was switched off😰

I didn't know ...

Did she feel bad about anything?

Where is she?

Is she fine?

Did I misbehave?

Was I going too fast 😧

Ishaani please...where are you?

Shall I ask Tan? Or shall I wait?

Soon I heard anklet sounds...

I saw they were descending from the staircase...

I was hell scared! Pissed!!

I marched towards her with my walking stick...

'What the hell Ishaani... Where were you? I saw you everywhere'

'Oh I actu'

I didn't let her complete.

'Stop... Shutup... don't give me your stupid explanations..by the way where is your phone haan? Is it a dummy? Why is it switched off? '

'My phone actua'

'Reasons... don't give me those Ishaani.. you dont bother to leave a sticky note atleast? Do you know how much I'

This time she folded her hands on chest saying...

'If you are done with interrupting me I can do either of them!

Answer you or leave?'

She said...

'But Ishaani'

Before I could argue... She walked towards staircase and went and closed the master bedroom door with a thud!

I was pissed off!

I sat there in living room... Then I walked towards the mastee bedroom slowly.

She was unpacking her stuff!!!

'Ishaani... I'm....I'm sorry' I told her.

She didn't even look at my face and went outside.

In no time it was 9pm.

I saw her sitting quietly on dinner table. Soon she served me food.

I ate it all.

There was a killing silence in the house.

Slowly after meal I walked towards master bedroom.

We were going to use that room for us.

I saw the clock went  to 11pm hadn't come yet so I decided to check on my shoulder now. The shoulder elastic belt had loosened....so I removed my shirt with a lot of difficulty and was standing there Only on my jeans.

Struggling with my bandage to be tied across my shoulder. We would usually need help to do it

Because today was holiday!

Just then I heard a thud and a scream followed by.

I stood there topless in front of my wife ❤️
