Benaam Rishta:An Invisible String

Chapter17

"Ohh, my beautiful flower.. You're glowing even more today......and differently. Is this because of being drenched in my love!? If it's, then I would love to rain you with my love in every heartbeat...." He whispered, in his deepest amorous tone, nudging on her cheek, plant a feathery kiss behind her ear. She didn't react. Neither turned. Felt him putting something in hair and she knew what it was.. gajara!

He often brought for her one. putting gajara in her beautiful hair he pecked on her right cheek. Slightly hovering over her, brought out some purple bangles and put them on her wrist ever so cautiously. Caressing her Bangles adorned hand lovingly, he whispered, a bit teasingly "Yesterday I broke your Chudiyan ! Right? So, here's the compensate. Ahem...although I know it's going to be repeated again an......." By then he leaned down to touch her shoulder but before his lips could reach its destination, he was pushed away.......by her.

"Umm...I...I have...work....." Bondita quickly started checking some papers. Although it's a futile attempt. Anirudh smiled confusedly observing her act. Is she angry at him! Ohh...He bit tongue in realisation. Why wouldn't she be angry when he didn't bring Rosogolla for her?! His Rosogolla lover! Maybe that's the reason she didn't even ask him to have dinner. Well, he deserved it. holding ears, making a puppy face he apologized to her for the blunder. all she could do was passing a forced smile. Anirudh frowned as he sensed her behaviour a little different.

However, again' approached to her with a smirk, husked flirtatiously "Jaan, If you are that angry with me then 'Let's do some lip wrestling' ....I'm sure that will help calm down and quench your thirst for sweet"

He inched closer to her, expecting a warm reciprocation but what she did was totally unexpected. She turned her face away and yelled hoarsely "Didn't you hear what I said?, I have work. Let me do that peacefully. and Why are you here so late at night? Barrister Babu, Go to your Own house and do whatever you want. Please"

He stumbled back by her unidentifiable demeanor. shook head confoundedly or maybe trying to take in her words. Barrister Babu! Own house!' him staying in her house was nothing new. Neither for her. So where did this difference suddenly come from??! Leave it alone.... wasn't she his home?! His sweet home! Then......

Ohh...c'mon Anirudh, She didn't really mean that. She must be tired because of the hectic day. It definitely was the side effects of tremendous workload. Use some sweet words to calm her down. Don't think of any romantic dialogue for a while. it wouldn't be healthy to provoke her more.

Putting a full stop in his self convincing process, plastering a sweet smile, opened his mouth "Bondita I know why yo........." Was only to interrupt by a sudden violent sound, which made him flinch at his place. She slammed hard the book on the table. Gritting teeth, rushed out of the room... without any word and there, it was his soul, that trembled to the core, by her cold behaviour. Suddenly he felt everything went blank around him. tears brimmed in his eyes without his knowledge.

What happened to her? it didn't look like she was just angry with him. but her bearing , words everything indicated otherwise. something.....that sent chill of fear down his spine. they couldn't talk whole day, as she went to court and he had to go to their factory, with Binoy for some crucial reason. Which was why he went to have a heartfelt conversation with her about the previous night. about the leap they took in their relationship. he blushed to himself with this thought to marry her as soon as possible. But she.......! He tried to smile, in an attempt to get out of the unpleasant thoughts but his thumping heart took it all away. No. It wasn't true. She would be absolutely fine by tommoro morning. All he needed was just a little patience.

But next morning too, didn't bring any fruits to his self convincing method. She went to court alone and behaved with him more like a stranger. like this four days passed....him running after her, pleading to tell him the reason behind her eccentric, peculiar behavior or if there was any problem but all went in vain. The growing distance between them became unbridgeable.
