Fluttering my eyes open ,I was missing the warmth of his chest on my back which I had been enjoying for last one week when I decided to move in his room.It is quite difficult for me to adapt in the territory of my robotic husband .

Every single thing in this room seems nobody has touched them since a century . Not a particle of dust over shining antique Chinese vase and various expensive metal tiny sculptures.The room reminds me of my school days but his aura is the soul of this room where I love to dwell til my last day on the earth.

The windows were closed so I predicted the weather must be harsh outside as it the end of year.

I ran my fingers gingerly over the crumbled bedsheet where I could smell his cologne .I am afraid if I was living in a dream because everything is happening so miraculously that it was not very for me to digest the reality.

I kissed his photo frame which was kept on the side table and went to the bathroom to do my morning job.The bathroom was still steamy ,it means he had just taken a shower but why

so early .

With these puzzles thoughts I came out of the bathroom after a fresh warm shower.My eyes snapped open when strong aroma og fresh coffee and my favorite Indian breakfast aloo paratha hit my nostrils.

But nobody knows about my food likings .

"Sanyukta where have you lost..?"his voice disturbed my thoughts then I realised he was arranging the plates on the table .

"Huh.."I quietly sat on one of the couch while he poured hot coffee

in my mug.

"Look your favorite breakfast.."he smiled putting a paratha and curd in my plate.

"How do you know about it.."finally I asked him .

"Eat Sanyukta your questions can wait.."he said calmly with care.

I put a morsel inside my mouth.My taste buds immediately recognized the familiar taste.

"Mom.... only my Mom can make such delicious aloo paratha..I wobbly said with confused creases on my forehead.

"Its your Mom only who made these ..."he brightly answered thus the half chewed morsel stuck in my throat.

"Hey..easy Sanyukta...I am not snatching them away from you..so eat slowly.."he rubbed my back .

"But how..I mean..She.. can't be here..in our castle.."I couldn't understand his round talks.

"She came here in early morning.. actually I called her and Sumit for the lunch before we leave at night.."he shoot another riddle for my brain to ache more.

"Us..who is us now..Randhir use simple language..I am a business student not of literature ..."I was pissed by his continuous grin.

"You and I..we're leaving for a six days business trip to Spain.. tonight so I want us to spend some quality time with our family ..since we're going to miss them a lot .. specially you.."he said .

"What..?my mouth went open in complete shock."When was it decided and what about my classes..no..I can't go..my old ass professor will expel me from his class.."I got panicked .

He stood up from his seat and sat on the floor in front of me.

"Do you know who is your husband?"he asked taking my hands between his.

"You.."I answered slowly.

"And he can do anything..you know this very well too sweetheart.."he smirked proudly.

"He won't punish me..?"I repeated

out of fear as my professor is actually a rigorous man.

"Pack your bags Sanyukta after the lunch ..and if you want..you can go foe shopping with Andy.."he squeezed my palms.

"Randhir it's not necessary..you can go alone if you want..I don't have a grudge and impatient expectations from you.."I said humbly but it backfired when he pulled me with force that I fell on his lap.

"It is necessary Sanyukta you're my wife..and I don't want to keep you way from public's eyes..for the whole life..I want them to accept you as my life partner ..."his tone was aggravated

"They know it Randhir and there you will be busy in your meetings.. what would I do the whole day..since I've never been on a vacation in my calibacy .."I raised my tone this time.

"I agree it sounds creepy but I think this is the chance that we can use to know each other more closely as a person..and about the meetings..I won't be indulge in them for a longer time.."he frustratingly rubbed his nape.

"Randhir I am still saying .. Don't take any decision in haste because I know that I can't be the woman you would prefer to spend your whole life with.."I tried to convince him.

"I am your husband . Can't you understand this simple thing and how can you ask me to find someone else.."he retorted with disappointment in his voice.

"I am sorry..I felt that your efforts are the outcome of the guilt you have for hurting me..I swear it wasn't to hurt your sentiments.."my voice became hoarse when I witnessed dejection in his eyes .He wanted this chance

from me .

"At least give me an opportunity to

be a husband to you..stop pushing me away from you when you know that I am serious about our marriage.."he begged .

"Shhh...when I said sorry I meant it..Randhir may be I sound stupid but it's my first time that too with my arranged husband.. so I felt a little awkward..but trust me I am not pushing you away from me.."I pinched my throat .

Finally his gloomy face welcomed

it's spark thus I sighed in relief.I can't loose him forever just because of my any idiotic action.

"You're so naive Sanyukta..."he kissed my knuckles.

Butterflies started dancing inside my tummy whereas my heart desired more of his feathery kisses.

"I am sending you Mom here.."saying this he was about to leave but I grabbed his wrist thus he knitted his brows asking me silently .

"Umm actually I want to ask you about the climate of Spain ..coz I don't know much about the place even if I google about it.."I bit my bottom lip in embarrassment.

Firstly he smiled a little but it was transformed in a mischievous grin as he took backsteps leaving only inches difference between us.

"Spain is my favorite destination to erase the boredom of freezing coldness of this place..if you seek my suggestion then pack some hot ...beach costumes coz the sun is hot over the sky ..and I would like to see you in a skinny bikini.."he seductively whispered in my left ear while his hands roamed all over my waist side.

My eyes went wide hearing his shameless demand of watching me in the most possible exposing clothes.

"Let me go..I have to read Geeta for Grandpa..he must be looking for me.."I wiggled in his strong cage .

"Why so hurry Strawberry .For your kind information I should tell you that he is enjoying your Mom's yummy parathas.."he flopped a wet kiss over my exposed shoulder.

I busied myself gawking at the floor .I sensed his continuous stare at me which bug me but I chose to ignore the smirk that had been playing on

his thin red lips.

"I love the color of your cheeks .."he softly stroke my cheeks by the back

of his hands.I feared to look at his enchanting eyes which hypnotized me in their depth.

"Wh..what are you doing..?"I fumbled as his hands went inside my top.

My breathing were uneven by this new churn feeling before I could experience more of this intimacy he drew back his hands and stood on a hands distance with a contended smile.

"Your innocent face makes my day better ane happier.. Sanyukta.."he stated and raked his fingers in his thick hairs.

I couldn't stop myself from blushing by his genuine confession ans somewhere happy too that slowly yet definitely my presence has started bothering him.He begins to acknowledge me as a human

as a wife.

"We are going together to meet Mom.."I held his hand with authority of his wife and walked out of the room not knowing that this trip will bund us in a holy knot that no power can break ever.
