Abandoned wife

Chapter 8

"This is evasion on my privacy."

"What is this then?" his index finger waived in air from the top to bottom legnth of his shirt. "You are standing in front of me wearing nothing but my shirt and accusing me."

"because you left me with no option last night."

"There is plenty of option in my wardrobe but you decided to show up like this in front of me. Hypocrisy at its best."

"You forced me to shower in front of you yesterday and now lecturing me on decent clothing. You are the hypocrite here not me, infact you are way more than that."

"You won't talk to me like that."

"I'll"

He holds her both hands tightly in his arms. His one hand holding her waist tightly and another one securing her hands. "Listen wife, this is my house and you have to live here according to my rules." his voice enraged her and she struggled in his arms. His hand start moving downwards from her waist. Its few inches away from her buttock. She took a deep breath and his hand stopped immediately.

" Wise decision wife. "he chuckled" but I would love if you have struggle for some more time. "
Her eyes shoot up and she looked directly in his eyes. He pulled her towards him and his warm breaths touching her lips. Her eyes wants to close but she did otherwise and her ordeal started.

Rule one - You will never taunt me, insult me or humiliate me neither in public nor in private.

"You are the one who is trying to humiliate me since yesterday " she thought.

Rule two - You will cook for me three times in a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner.

"I wish you didn't mention this. I loved to cook for you, countless times I prepared you delicious meal, searched and prepared new recipes so you didn't get bored. "She looked towards his expressionless face for a moment and than focused on the wall behind him.

Rule three- You will not leave this house without my permission.

" You don't own me. I never had a habbit of wandering alone. I used to inform you before handed." her inner voice screamed.

Rule four - You will behave politely with persons associated with me.

"I always considered your family as mine. I was never gave biased treatment to them." I didn't knew I have such a low image in your eyes.

Rule five - You will take care of Tonga in my absence.

"Something I look forward to." her heart relax a bit before the next bomb.

Rule six - You will keep this house in best possible way.

"I supposed to act like your wife not your house keeper. Frustration starts bubbling in her.

Rule seven - You will not wear the clothes I won't approve. You won't show off your skin. You will always dressed modest.

" This is an attack on my self esteem. What I wear is solely my decision. You are no one to dictate me. Thanks for giving me reasons to never fall for you again. I hate you for this"

Rule Eight - You will quit your job right now.

This is more than she can endure. His rules make her nothing but slave cum maid. No matter what the situation she always loves her job. She loves to interact with people. Intellectual discussion feed her soul like oxygen. Interecting with children is cherry on the top. Her school kids are so enthusiastic and curious. They are troublesome many times but overall experience is satisfactory. She can't leave this part of her life for living with him.

"I won't follow any of your rules."her voice is enraged.She shivering with fury in her. His words left very bad taste in her mouth. She felt disgusted with him.

" I knew it, you will defy me, my sweet little wife. "he said putting pressure on her shoulders." but you wil agree with my terms eventually as you didn't have any other option. "he looked in her eyes challenging her to defy him.
"Sweetheart, you didn't paid three consecutive loan installment. You are on the verge of bankruptcy and court will not give custody of a child to financially unstable parent." the bomb dropped on her. It felt like someone stole whole world from her. Akshita is reason for her existence. She is light in her dark world. Her life has no meaning without her. She is her breath, her oxygen. She is her weakness without her, she can't function.She can't survive.
"I can't live without her." the words came out from her mouth without her realisation. She fall on the floor, her eyes were glassy and her tears starts falling.

"Women like you deserve this." his cold voice hit to freeze warmth of her heart. She felt someone pour molten lava in her ear. She thought no pain is greater than heartbreak but she was wrong. This is pure torture and he know it.His every step is deliberate. He is seizing everything which keep her alive. He is on the mission of killing her soul.

"Devil has to act like the one." her stopped him in his track. His fist tightened.

"Watch out what you are speaking." he said with gritting teeth.

"Oops! Devil is offended." she said sarcastically lying on the floor. She knew how to push his button. She knew she will have to face his rage but she didn't care. She will loose either way so why not baffled him,trouble him. She may lost the battle but she won't let him win that easily.

He sat on her toes,holds her hairs tightly in his fist. He pulled her hairs harshly to turn her face towards him. "One more offence and you will punished severely." he growled like a wild beast. She knew the outcome, snatch the control from the Control freak and he lost it. There is no fear in her eyes. She looked straight in his eyes. "I am not afraid of your punishment. I won't follow any of your rule infact I'll break them one by one. I'll defy you, challenge you and rebel against you. Your own heart will rebel against you and that will be my ultimate victory." she said putting her hand on his chest.She can felt his escalating heartbeat with her each passing word. It almost stop thumping when she intended to win his heart. His grip lossened and she falls on the floor with a jerk. He immediately left the room. She watched his retreating figure till it doesn't disappeared from her sight.
