Continuous knocking on the door woke me up. I was alone in bed and obviously, I didn't like it.

"Didi, get up" I heard Prarthi's voice coming from outside.

(Didi = big sister )

I looked at the room and realized it was our room. He brought me here. But why? Then I realized, Of course, it's because of prarthi. She had come here before our divorce so she would know which one was our room and me living in another room would make her ask questions.

"I will be out in a minute," I yelled and went to the bathroom.

While taking a shower I half-remembered what happened yesterday. I told him about my pregnancy and he doesn't hate me. I came out and my things were already in the room. I guess last night he brought it here or maybe today. I went to have breakfast and three of them were already there. He smiled looking at me and I smiled back. Prarthi was looking at me, grinning. I rolled my eyes at her and took a sit in front of him.

After breakfast, Rima took her out and I was alone in the room. The thought of going to his office came to my mind. I wanted to be near him so I went but as I was in front of the door I hesitate to open it for some time. I finally opened the door hoping he was inside and what I saw broke me down. He was facing me and a blonde was kissing him. 

I couldn't recognize who she was as her back was facing me. His eyes widened and suddenly he broke the kiss. The girl turned at me and was no other than Ratna. She gave me a harsh look and then smirked at me. I hurriedly closed the door and ran to the room which used to be ours. I couldn't quite believe what I saw. I mean, we were already divorced and I shouldn't feel bad but I felt like someone ripped my heart out. I told myself again and again that we were divorced and I shouldn't think about it.

"What you saw was not....." He was standing at the door looking down.

"You don't need to explain," I said calmly, not wanting to hear anything about it and he slowly looked at me with guilt-filled eyes. He hesitatingly came inside the room and was about to speak but ignoring him I went to the kitchen and drank water. I needed to be away from him.

I saw Tina was making lunch. I wanted to ask her so many questions that were running in my head. I wanted to ask her if he was married. I mean if he was married then why wasn't Ratna living with him? I saw them kiss a few moments ago.

"What happened after I left ?" I didn't realize when it slipped out of my mouth.

She opened her mouth but hesitated.

"You don't have to say it if you don't want to," I said.

"No, no," she said.

"After you left, he was miserable. He locked that room and locked himself in the office....." She paused.

Hearing this slightly broke my heart. He was miserable because of me? Or something else? He looked horrible when I saw him in the garden but why?

"Rima princess came and started to live with us but it didn't help either but thankfully your sister helped a lot,"

My sister? But how? Does she know about us?

"She used to text and call him almost every day and somehow it brought a difference in him. He then slowly started to come out of the room and we were hopeful that he would be back in his old form," she said giving me a forceful smile.

"He didn't get married?" I asked heaviness in my heart.

"No, he..."

I looked at her, waiting for her to speak.

"King and queen insisted a lot but he... refused,"

Relief filled me hearing that but it was only for a second.

"He is getting married after..... 2 months with.....Ratna," she said looking anywhere but me.

He is getting married to Ratna? Of course, he is, just a while ago they were kissing.

I nodded

"Thanks," I said and left.

He was getting married. Both my head and heart were heavy. I almost lost my breath and stood in the middle of the staircase holding handrail for support. I wanted to leave the house right at that time when I heard the word marriage but I couldn't cause prarthi was here. I don't want her to know anything, not right now. If she knows about everything she will hate him and I don't want that. Closing my eyes I calmed myself down and went to the room. Thankfully, the was room empty. I was not in the mood to talk with him or face him.

Prarthi came back and forced me to watch a movie with them. Rima and prarthi were sitting on the same couch while I had to sit on the other one with him. I sat on the edge of the couch trying my best to keep space between us but he came and sat near me, keeping no space. I rolled my eyes at him. Our bodies were nearly touching but not once did I look at him. I felt his eyes on me time and again but ignored him. There came a scene where the husband was kissing another woman and the wife sees it. Yeah, same as mine but the difference was, I was not his wife.

"Bloody cheater," I didn't realize I said it aloud. I felt their eyes on me and I just shrugged. I felt horrible so without saying anything I left.

Prarthi said that she was going on camping with Rima. For a second I wanted to stop her cause I didn't want her to go alone with a vampire but when Rima told me that some of prarthi's friends were also going, I said nothing.

I asked Tina to bring dinner to my room. I didn't want to face him. I went to bed early but I couldn't sleep. Maybe I needed a drink. So I got up and went to have a drink. I finished a bottle and was about to open another one when he took it away from my hand.

"You had enough drink," he said. I rolled my eyes and was halfway to the door when he came in front of me.

"Bloody vampire," I muttered and he almost laughed.

"We need to talk," 

"We don't," I was about to leave but he blocked my way and I stood there closing my eyes and covering my ears.

"Please," he whispered in a pleading tone.

I opened my eyes and slowly lifted my hands off my ears. I then sat on the chair. He was about to speak but I didn't let him.

"I hate you.... you know that right?" I asked him and he nodded.

"No," I almost yelled and he looked at me confused. I shook my head "No, no, I don't hate you, do I? No, I hate you. i. I ..hate you?" I was talking to myself and I don't know what I was saying. I guess drink was doing the talking.

"I didn't kiss her. She suddenly forced me in it and I was about to break it off when you saw," He said and I felt good hearing that.

"Really?" I asked him.

He nodded.

"You are lying," I said poking his chest and he caught my hand.

"Why would I lie?"

"I don't know. Why should I believe you?" I asked and he went silent.

"Cause...."

"You are getting married to her?" I cut him off.

"No," he said letting go of my hand. I didn't like it cause as soon as he let go of my hand, the warmth left too.

"You are not?" I asked in a surprised tone.

He shook his head and I was relieved to hear that.

"Why?"

"Cause.........umm. Let's go to the room. It's getting late," he said changing the topic.

"No," I said folding my arms and turning my head to the other side.

"Please," he requested.

I slowly turned my head towards him "I will forgive you only if you... kiss me," I said.

"You are drunk," he said smiling.

"No, I am not," I said holding my head high.

He grinned looking at me and came closer. I slowly brought my face close to him and he kissed me smiling.

"You taste so.... good," I said licking my lips after we broke off the kiss.

"Thank you," he said still grinning.

"Now another punishment,"

"This was a punishment?" He asked in amusement.

"Yeah, and another one is a big one. You will cry," I said feeling proud of myself.

"If you will forgive me. I will accept any kind of punishment." He smiled.

"Carry me to bed and sing me a song," I said in a demanding tone.

"Oh no, This punishment is so huge," he laughed.

"I know. Now carry me," I ordered throwing my hands towards him.

He carried me to the room.

"I like it when you are drunk and your punishment," he said.

He laid me down on the bed and started to sing a song, pulling me close. He had this kind of warmth that I didn't want to let go of, ever.

"You are a good singer," I said. "From now on sing for me every day,"

"Ok," he said stopping and playing with my hair. I stared at him and there was the urge to kiss him.

"Can I kiss you?" I asked and he looked at me not saying anything.

"Why am I even asking you," I said pulling his head down and kissing him. I closed my eyes and got drowned in it. After we broke off he had this kind of emotion that I couldn't read.

"Don't stop," I said lightly hitting him on his arm.

Saying sorry he sang again. He really had a good voice. I closed my eyes admiring his voice.
