Continued from the previous part...

A few days passed!

Bondita had given her exams!... That day everyone tried their best to boost her confidence!... Ma made her eat "dahi-cheeni" for good luck!... Kaka made her do the morning Aarti and blessed her!... Binoy, Som and Batuk wished her luck and Anirudh!.. He just said that he loves her!... And thats all what she needed!...

The results were out soon!... Bondita was very nervous that day!.. But everyone was confident about her!.. And as soon as Anirudh returned from her college after checking her result, everyone gathered in the hall!..

As Anirudh announced her result proudly, everyone got happy and congratulated her!... She had scored good in most of her subjects and everyone was really happy!

Anirudh smiled at her proudly and she blushed... Back in their room too, he congratulated her and she thanked him for being a really good teacher for her!...

Now, Bondita was a Barrister and she could officially start practicing with Anirudh!.. He was happy that she would be doing something different from other women!.. And was really proud of her!... Bondita and Anirudh were happy that now they could spend more time together!....

A few days passed and everything went good!❤️

One fine day...

Anirudh and Bondita were getting ready in their room to leave for their work when Maa entered smiling...

She had made Anirudh's favourite kheer and wanted him to taste!...

As soon as Maa entered Anirudh smelled his favourite sweet dish and rushed to her like a 5 year old!...

"Maa!.. Aapne kheer banaayi hai?!", he exclaimed with a wide smile and Maa nodded forwarding the kheer!...

Bondita who was packing her bag smiled at them and came to them...

Maa took a spoonful of kheer and made him eat it!... He closed his eyes savouring on the best kheer he ever had!... And Maa smiled at him lovingly with all her warmth!... She even made Bondita taste it and she widened her eyes in ecstacy!... Bondita finshed her bite and said with a huge smile,"Mmm....Maa!... Kitni swaadisht hai yeh kheer!... Ab samajh aaya pati babu kyu itne khush hue the!... Mujhe bhi banana sikhaayengi na?!"

Maa smiled at the sweet talks of her bahu which were sweeter than her and nodded happily!...

Maa-: Haan beta!.. Zarur sikhaaungi!... Par abhi neeche aajao!.. Naashte ke baad khana khoob saari kheer!

She said giggling... But Anirudh took the bowl of kheer from her and sat on the bed eating every inch of it!... Maa and Bondita looked at him laughing sharing glances in between!...

Maa came to him and said, "Itni pasand kyu hai tujhe yeh kheer?"

Anirudh replied still busy eating, "Aap itne pyaar se banaati ho!.. Toh bhala pasand kaise na ho?!.... Aur vaise bhi aap jaisi kheer puri duniya mein koi nahi bana sakta!..."

Bondita smiled agreeing to him... But Maa said, "Acha?!.. Aur agar kabhi main na rahi toh?.. Tab kaise khaaayega mere..."

Before she could complete Anirudh hugged her tightly!... Tears brimming in his eyes!... Bondita too didnt like what Maa said... But she decided to leave the moment for the mother and son... And kept quite!...

Anirudh said with a sad tone, still hugging her, "aisi baatein kyu karti ho aap?!... Aapko pata haina... Aap kitni zaruri ho mere liye!... Phir bhi aisi baatein?!.."

Ma patted his back lovingly consoling him and said, "Aray main toh aise hi... Acha chal chhod!.. Ab jaldi se taiyaar hoke neeche aaja... Kheer tera intezaar kar rhi hai!.."

Maa left smiling and Bondita could see Ani's eyes brimming with fearful tears!.. She went and sat beside him keeping her hand on his shoulder...

"Aap apne pariwaar se bahut pyaar karte haina pati babu?!.."she asked looking at him with a thoughtful sweet smile!... He looked at her and nodded simply...

Taking her hand in his, he said,"Bahut Bondita!... Apne pariwaar ke bina nahi jee sakta main!... Mera pariwaar hi meri taakat hai!... Aur meri kamzori bhi!..."

Bondita smiled and hugging him with all her love she said, "Aap bilkul chinta mat kijiye!... Yeh pariwaar humesha aapke saath rahega!..."

He hugged her tightly and smiled beautifully!

He said thoughtfully, "Kabhi kabhi toh main samajh hi nahi pata... Ki tum kaise mere dil ki har baat jaan leti ho?!... Sachmein!... Tum bahut khaas ho mere liye!... I love you Bondita!..."

"I love you more Pati Babu!", She said hugging him slightly... And they went down for the breakfast!...

That Night...

Bondita was sitting on the bed reading a Romantic Novel!... While Anirudh came out of the washroom and after combing hia hair came to the bed... He sat down close to her but she didn't pay much attention... She was totally lost in the Romantic world of her characters!... She was smiling and blushing in between... Sometimes she would look tensed with a small frown too... Anirudh kept looking at her sweet antics, waiting that he might get her attention too... But all in vain!... He was successfully ignored by his wife...he couldn't imagine how could she be so engrossed in a romantic novel?!..

Anirudh's POV...

Uff!.. This girl is totally lost in a stupid romantic novel!!!... Like... How can she read that?!... (He rolled up his eyes in disgust)... Those novels are just full of idiotic romantic scenes!... Dialogues... Yukk... Idk why these girls like such stupid things?!... Cant she just read about freedom fighters... Or may be science.. And about the new things happening around!... I even gave her that book about the invention of telephone!... But no!.... She just read it half way!... And then said, "pati babu mujhe nahi padhni yeh... Bahut boring hai!.."

Matlab!... Vo logical cheezein she finds boring!... And she wants to waste her time reading such illogical Romances!... Huhh!...

Anirudh snatched her book and she almost cried like a little baby!... He kept her bookmark between the pages she was reading and placed the book on the lamp table...

She almost screamed in anger, "Kya hai Pati Babuuu?!... Meri book waapas kijiye please!..."

Anirudh turned towards her and smiled lovingly... She was angry... But couldn't ignore that smile!... She looked away to avoid an eye contact.....

"Kyaa hai?!... Kyu pareshaan kar rahe hain?!.."she asked trying hard not to smile at him...

He came close to her and keeping his head on her lap he said,"Mujhe na apni patni ka saara time chahiye!.. Aur yeh Romantic novels na... Meri dushman hai!... I mean... I didnt know tum itni romantic insaan ho!..." he said laughing a bit...

Bondita caressed his hair and said, "Toh?!.. Aapko jalan hui?!... Par aap na kabhi padhke dekhna yeh novels!... Bahut khoobsurat hote hain!.... Vo pyaar ka pehla ehsaas!... Vo khoobsurat shabd!... Vo pal, jinme puri zindagi bhar ki khushi hoti hai!... Vo pehla izhaar!... Phir thodi takleefein!... Aur phir anth mein... Prem Milan!😍...."

She said dreaming all what she imagined!...

Anirudh waved his hand in front of her face and she came out of her dream world!...

And said nervously, "Aray!... Aapne..... Aapne kabhi padha bhi hai yeh sab?!... Huhh!... Aap kya jaanein... Kitna achaa hota hai!.."

He turned around, got off her lap and lying on his stomach, resting his chin on both his hands he said smiling, "Ab mere liye toh tum hi sabse khoobsurat ho!.. Toh main kyu jaanu yeh pyaar- vyaar?!... Mere liye toh pyaar ka matlab hai... Meri Bondita!.. Aur kuch nhi jaanna mujhe!..."

Bondita loved his words!... She covered her face with both her hands and said blushing and smiling wide, "Isshhh Pati babu!🙈"...

He took her into his arms and lied on the pillow!.. She rested her head on his chest and her hands wrapping around him tightly!... He held her head with one hand... While the other wrapped around her shoulders!...

They were really feeling something!.. And that was surely love!... They didn't want to part from each other!... This brought little tears in her eyes... As she was really touched by the love she received!... She had always read about it in her fairy tales and romance novels!.. But now she could experience what it feels like!....
