Noonish
While her
husband ate, … Ritu and her husband chatted laughed, poked fun at each other..
Kritik offered up Ritu’s quirks for her husband to laugh at.”That’s me Gujral”
Ritu declared proudly
While Ritu and Kritik showered and freshened up a
lil, Khanak went up to locate her cell
phone. She was not sure where she put it after returning…she wanted to call Bai…
Sonali had said something about returning a couple days early, Bai had spoken with
Dadi, and Dadi had told her at breakfast.
It took a while just as usual….
HL followed her to give her a batch of ironed
clothes, she sorted… put his away… “not wifely” she denied to herself… she knew
he would mock at some point…
His closet was neat and organized… “may be HL did
it” there was tons of grad school memorabilia… stacks of photographs in various
boxes…. From their honeymoon, from Seychelles……
“Why wont you unpack?” he asked
She had a hand in the cookie jar look…
She started stacking the dozen or so tees, by
color (ofcourse)… without responding…
He waited… he had the drill down…
She paused… to look at an image on the wall… it
was blue or green wave…. Not sure…. Like a saree she had… with a silvery trim…
she was not sure if it was a close up of a wild flower under the sun….
“Its that saree you wore once” he supplied…
He took the clothes from her and set them down on
the low… bench like thing by the wall, intended to be a seat for shoe wearing…
“Ritu is my best friend” she said pinned against
the wall (if she emphasized on the “my”, she hoped he caught it)
“You are welcome” (Are you thanking me for
personally bringing her?)He chuckled…
“She is “my”” she began
“I didn’t speed, did not run any stop lights”
bending down on her neck(I brought her home safe)
“You” (You are trying to become her best friend)
His weight descended on her completely as he
laughed openly, yet inaudibly.
“Pradeep has the morning off, I was in the
vicinity”
She let him nuzzle…
“God, you smell good enough to eat”
“Jasmine and ginger” she croaked… hoarsely…. Fighting
his hands
“You took for ever”(to return from the spa)
“You went to work” (furious)
They tussled by the wall…
“Aap shaadi mein challenge ki nahi?”
He flirted as he begged… “Late”
She stiffened…
“I am taking Kritik to the site, then the Mumbai auto
show”
She fought like a cat……..”I wont tell u where I
am going then” (smug)
“I am taking Pradyun with me” he told her smugly
She bit his jaw to stop his hands………..
Heavy breathing filled the air…
“When is the baraat?”
“9” she muttered throatily…
“Will you dance?”
“Nah” (he smothered the refusal….. giving her a
taste of the bitter mocha he just had with his egg mcmuffin)
Seconds ticked….
“According to a survey conducted by an Australian
university,” he began… caressing her cheek with his lips… “Guess what tops the
list for men”
“Work” she said unlinking her hands from his nape…
as his grip tightened…
“Sex” he responded crushing her…
“Beer” he continued… on her ear… her diamond stud
in his mouth….
“Spending time with his woman is a third”
“The 4th being… “3rd’s a
lie” she declared accusing…
He laughed out loud at that sharp wit…
She weakly allowed his fingers access to her
clothing in the back…
“You are selfish, aggressive and mean” she said
He listened… continuing to explore.. with the new
found freedom…
“I am docile, meek and obedient” she awarded
herself…
His laughter told her what he thought of that
opinion…….
His phone rang….
She inhaled and rested on his chest… he gently
freed his hands from her rib area… “It must be Rahat” he groaned… apologetic…
She stepped back, leaning on the wall…trembling….
“Are you at the site?” Rahat asked
“You don’t want to know” her husband bit out…
walking away… turned back to offer one look of regret…
Hers were big and blaming, as she fixed her clothing...
another awesome update!
ReplyDeleteWhen I’m beginning to enjoy...the blue or the pink pops up and it ends...Sigh!
ReplyDeleteThe back and forth conversations are always sizzling. It is the high point and brings the whole tension alive... There is a certain flow to it... effortlessly!
Ek point! ABS loved the photography...it must be unique, even Khanak couldn't guess! She should acknowledge from here how MADLY he is obsessed with her
Sareee kab pehne gi? It’s been ages...Jaldi se! Wedding hai aur mauka bhi :D
And for some reason I want Prad to attend the wedding and make him insane, after he received the work call! His phone needs to be thrown away...Sunday hai and he is working, pagal hai kya people like me deprive for the weekend and this guy WORKS! Insanity!
Her possessiveness regarding to ‘my’ best friend is understandable, when my BS is over. I just hate it that even my own sister is able to have conversation with her so openly and sometimes it even seems as if she enjoys being with my sister more than me..! But at the end of it, we are worried they might blurt out one of the most sacred secrets.
Aur what can I say about Shantanu...Men are men though this one is a masterpiece :P
Par iska workaholic habit should be the first and last, though Khanak somewhere in the middle :P
Update jaldi jaldi :)
Awesome Aditee :)
ReplyDeleteshe asked will come to attend wedding wow!!!!! loved what shaan said will u dance
he's taking Pradyun too lolzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!! i want Pradyun to attend wedding n shaan to go there see him gone mad heheheh

blue n pink line are always adorable
looking forward for wedding part
Nice update :)
ReplyDeleteupdate next part soon!!!
Oh! Lovely update Aditee! :)
ReplyDeleteThe insecurity regarding your best friend is kind of normal when you watch them mingling with others more! And Ritu is ofcourse special for Khanak! :D
Sigh! He never leaves a single thing unnoticed when its about her! Somethings even she doesn care about, he's always there to pay deep attention to every lil mundane things! He's so obsessed with her, fascinated by her..and infatuated by her! When they're together, there are no other people, no other thoughts, no worries! And this connection is growing stronger each time!
Uff! Now this is too much! His phone never stops ringing, and he never stops working! I wonder, when would she pick that up for once and throw it down from 9th floor balcony! Help her do that Aditee! :P
Its Kritik's first time stay at Gujrals! :D I remembered how Ritu used to pout as she had no partner! :P haha! Everyone's here! This is so awesome! :D
And as Sonam mentioned, I want Prad to attend the wedding!
All of it is bringing back their wedding memories! I'm sure its gonna be yet one more memorable ride for all of us! :D
Continue soon! :)
