Our Unplanned WEDLOCK [UPLOADING+EDITING]

CHAPTER- 52

Peeping sun through curtains, warm weather and cheerful greetings of friendly neighbours, nothing excited him like before. Accepting the fact that the day seemed dull while the nights seemed boring he sighed deep. Time refused to pass fast and he refused to get adjusted like before. He missed himself being energetic and independent while on the same time passing moments and every corner of their beautiful house reminded him of her. Specifically those moments when he felt like loving her even more. Her innocent smiles and stupid anger, he is missing every move of her. Discovering that his interest in dressing up classy has fainted he sat over their bed rubbing his temple. Everything came to a suffocating halt for him as he missed her more with every passing minutes.

Looking blankly at the kitchen counter he munched over cereal uninterested and kept reminiscing their joyous moments. Her love and care for him had no limits when she were there and that feel of getting loved is way more special than feeling love. The faint curve of smile rose upwards only to make him realise more of the sharp pain he was feeling. He remembered how she used to feed him sitting over his lap and kiss his cheek once when he becomes ready to go to office. Then staying away from home seemed difficult but now staying at home became suffocating. He stared at their photograph placed over the table at one corner and smiled.

"Love you" lips sang in sync hoping she is thinking about him too.

Here she was down with files, leaving for a long vacation is causing her tension to folds. Pile of files are increasing each day as their company got a new contract and her boss believes more over her than anyone else. He now trusts her, just like before, therefore ignoring him or taking him for granted had no option. She tried managing time for her dear husband but nothing fell in her favour. Nights also had works, thus talking to him for hours ceased and missing him increased. Another file piled up, total of five files for detailing and signature and rest six are for going through casually. She somehow managed completing the five files in the entire day and decided to take the rest to her house. No other option, thus, packing her bag she got up.

Office was completely empty by the time she left, the watchman greeted her good bye as she got up and accelerated her car. She in turn greeted him while leaving behind the enormous building named office. She was humming a song that touched her soul two days back and was concentrating over her drive. Just then her phone rang and she picked it up. Thinking off hurrying towards home, she didn't stop the car to talk which she usually does, rather she kept on driving while talking. It was Shivay, she cannot miss the chance to talk to him because once back home she will have to push herself to complete that work by that night or by morning.

"Are you on road? Are you driving?" he asked listening to bike sounds and bus honks.

"Yeah, you just say na" she looked around and rotated her steering changing the path.

"Nope, you at first reach home safely and then ring me" he was about to hang up.

"Shivay, once I reach I won't get any time to talk to you. You know my work pressure right? So please, I know I am doing wrong but just for today please"

She kept on requesting him and he kept on denying thus resulting into her mere irritation. She accelerated the car more and increased the speed just before colliding a pole that stood straight at one side of the road while saving a baby who suddenly came in front of her car.

"Are you fine D?" his voice turned tensed, his sweat bubbles descended down as he walked left to right in his room.

"I am good, just hope that baby is alright" she got down from the car and rushed towards the baby.

The baby was alright, he was crying out of shock and listening to that his mother rushed down. She thanked Anika for saving her son's life and asked God to bless Anika always. Shivay was still on call and was continuously asking if she is fine. She answered yes ignoring the forehead cut. He understood her pain and soon advised her to rush to any hospital. This distance had him insane and he dialled Om's number furiously. Om fortunately received soon and promised Shivay to take care of his bhabhi. She checked the bonnet and saw it damaged a little. By the time she succeeded in starting the car again, Om has reached the spot. He carefully checked Anika's wound and rushed her to hospital asking the helper he brought to take care of the car. He too scolded Anika along with Shivay and Anika gulped in the entire scolding knowing more to come.
