Somehow, these pictures look happy! I mean... I look happy in them. And Karthik, well... he looks like him only. Indifferent to everything that's happening. But with it, he looks HOT. He always looks hot.
I think I am developing a crush on him or something, nowadays. His looks, his focus, his style, even his aggression, I find it all very hot.
But his behavior and coldness, it ruins everything.
I wish I can make him open up to me some day.
I was lost in my thoughts when the doorbell rang. I looked at the time and it was 7 PM only.
Is Karthik home early today?
Smiling, I walked to the door and opened it, expecting the person on the other side, to be Karthik.
I was wrong.
There was a girl, who looked Indian, standing with her arms crossed over her chest. She was wearing a pair of blue, ripped denims and a white sweatshirt.
Her short hair was pure black, matching her eye color. And the vibe I was getting from her wasn't good at all.
"Where is Karthik?" She asked straight.
Who's she, now?!
" I am sorry. Who are you, again?" I asked in a not-so-friendly tone.
She unfolded her arms and looked at me for a while.
"Mrunali. Karthik's... friend. Who are you?" She spoke.
"Mira, his wife"
One sec!
Mrunali?!
M?!!
My eyes widened at the realization.
But when I saw her with more attention, her eyes were wide as well.
"Karthik's wife?!!" She exclaimed.
Why is it so difficult for all the girls to accept it?
"Yeah" I said, as casually as I could.
Mrunali.
Another candidate for M.
I sighed at the thought and shrugged a little.
"Karthik's not home" I told her.
All I wanted was for her to go from my house as soon as possible. She looked like a problem.
"When did this happen?" She asked, confused and with a hint of anger in her voice.
"What?" I asked back.
"When did you two—" she was saying when Karthik came there.
"Mrunali?" Karthik looked at her, shock evident in his voice.
Why did he come early today?!
I mentally face palmed myself for the situation that was unfolding in front of me.
I see my peace ruining.
"What are you doing here?" Karthik asked her, confused.
Is she M?
Or another f*ck buddy of his?
I kept looking at both of them, trying to find any answer I could get.
