~Author's POV~
" Avni ji kripaya hamari baat toh suniye.....Avni ji..." Neil was begging Avni to open the bathroom door for past half an hour but neither she was opening the door nor saying anything.
" Avni ji hume hamari paksh rakhne ka ek moka toh dijiye "
" Avni ji aap kuch bol kyun nehi rehe hain "
" Avni ji hume apki chinta ho rehi hai kripaya darwaja kholiye "
Neil kept on begging but didn't get any response from Avni which made him more restless. He could only hear was the sound of water dropping on floor. He started worrying about Avni's health as it would not be good for her to stay under the shower for a long time.
On the other side Avni was crying silently sitting under the shower. She was holding her knees close to her chest and her head was dropped on her knees. The pain of rejection was unbearable for her.
" Avni ji darwaja kholiye anyatha hum darwaja tod denge " Neil warned for last time. He couldn't take her silence anymore.
Avni didn't want to talk to him at least not at that time but she got angry when he threatened her that he will break the door. She lifted up her head and clenched her jaws.
" what the hell you think of yourself, Neil ? Can't you just leave me alone ? " she screamed from inside.
Although her tone was bitter and not pleasant at all but he felt a little bit relief hearing her voice.
" Avni ji aap ek baar hamari baat toh suniye "
" I don't want to hear anything from you. Just leave me alone " she yelled again but this time her voice cracked in the end.
Neil noticed that and it worried him more. " Avni ji esi samay darwaja kholiye anyatha hum maa aur bebe ko bulayenge " he knew his begging or pleading was not going to work so he thought to threatened her with his mother and grandmother.
He was waiting for her reply but instead of that she opened the door and stood in front of him. She was wearing nothing but only a bathrobe. Her hair was wet and eyes were red due to constant crying.
She didn't say anything to him and walked straight to the cupboard. She took out a towel and started drying her hair.
" Avni ji...." Neil tried to come closer to her but she moved back and went to the dressing table. " Avni ji.. " Neil again called her but she ignored him completely and kept on drying her hair looking her reflection on mirror.
She would not have come out if he had not threatened her with his mother and grandmother. She didn't want to face him at that moment but also didn't want her in laws to know about what happened on her wedding night. She thought it will be better to keep things between her and her husband.
Neil had enough of her ignorance. He have to clear her misunderstanding before things get out of control.
Neil took a deep breath and prayed to God for give him strength. He walked straight to his furious wife and lifted up her on his arms.
To say Avni was shocked would be an underestimate. Neil, her husband was holding her in his arms. That Neil who thinks 10 times before holding her hands. If she wasn't angry and heartbroken at that time then would have been on cloud nine.
Before Avni could get any chance to react, Neil carried her to the bed and put her down gently but he caged her in between his arms so that she could not run away from him. Avni was just staring at her husband with her mouth open.
