Namrata's pov-
These few days passed in a blur while spending time with everyone and doing the diwali preparations.
Today it was strictly told by mom that mens are going to help out themselves with the food and drinks because all the ladies are having a fast that too without water.
Today there were a lot of work. I was incharge of making designed patters on the ground with soaked rice and water paste. And make imprints of foot of goddess laxmi on every door.
I was done with the making patterns when Pari joined me in making the rangolis. It was most of the rangoli done when Pari said she is very tired so i sent her to get some sleep.
Somebody tapped me on my shoulder
"Hey Namrata"
"Ohh hi rishi hi rohan"
"You know we came here to have tasty food made by you" rohan said
"But your bad husband made us drink just lemonade" rishi said
"Yeah that was your luck to get lemonade atleast" adi said coming from backside of mine
"Ohh dont worry i will make something after i am done here"
"That's our lovely bhabhi"rohan said
"This rangoli is looking very beautiful.. i have a dream to kiss those beautiful hands who made this" rishi said
"Yes i wish the same" rohan said
"Kiss each others ass you idiots" adi said
"So posessive dude" rohan said
"No he is jealous because she agreed to make something for us and he had burnt rice for lunch"
"Jealous my foot.. she won't make anything already she is fast"
"Ohh then its no need we can have any other time" rishi said
"No there is no issues i will make something for you all to enjoy"
"I don't want you to fall down ill baby"
"Nothing is going to happen to me Adi"
"Bhabs we will today make adjustments with some instant food" rohit said
"Yes i will agree with him Namrata. But you promise to make something good next time" rishi said
"Ok as you all say"
"Lets go and make instant food" rohit said. And both of them moved towards the kitchen.
Adi was standing still there "what?" I asked him.
He came towards me and kissed me on my forehead and said "take some rest baby"
"I will. Just let me finish this rangoli"
"Ok. i will go and see them now"
"Okay"
Finishing the rangoli I checked all the things needed for the puja and the "bhog-prashaad" preparations.
I came in the room and Adi was ready completely. He was looking so handsome that I really wanted to kiss him but I was dirty currently. I started to walk towards the washroom when he tried to hold my hand.. "wait"
"What? Why?"
"I am all dirty and you are wearing fresh clothes so no"
"Thats unfair wifey I want to hug you right now"
"Then wait for me" Saying I ran into the washroom.
I took a warm shower and washed my hairs. I wore a maroon anarkali suit and started to dry my hair and he came close to me and took the dryer from my hand and started to dry my hairs.
I did my makeup and matched up some bangles to go with and started to search some matching jewellery with it.
"Baby"
"Haan"
"Check the corner right drawer may be you find something there"
"Its not possible because i keep all the false jewellery there"
"Ok then also"
I opened the drawer and found a brand new jewellery box there. I took the box and opened it. There was kept a beautiful pair of gold earrings.
He came closer to me bringing his lips near my ear and said "happy diwali baby". I shivered the way he whispered in my ears.
He turned me and took the box from my hand and started to put the earrings. His fingers were softly gliding on the back of my ear making me churn inside my stomach with the sensations. I kept my eyes closed and felt him pinning the second pair of earring.
"Open your eyes baby" he said
Slowly i opened my eyes and the earrings perfectly matched with the dress.
"You like it?"
"Its beautiful"
He turned me and took a step backwards and looked at me for almost completely two minutes.
"Something is missing" he said
"What is missing"
"Bangles earrings hair bindi all are done..." I turned myself towards the mirror and yes something was missing..
I tried to find the box but couldn't find it. "Where did i keep it its always here only"
"Its here" he took the box in his hand and showed me..
He opened the box and took some vermillion and giving me a smile he filled in the long middle partition of my hairs. I closed my eyes and got the same feelings when he had put me vermillion on my head on our wedding day.
"Open your eyes and look at yourself" he whispered
I looked at the reflection of us on the mirror and what caught my attention was with the sindoor it seemed to be binding both of us as one.
"Baby each day you make me fall out of words... You look ravishing.. i am really enchanted by you"
I turned beet root with his compliment "i love you Mr.Chakravarty" i said and hugged him
"I love you too Mrs.Chakravarty"
We heard a knock on the door..
"Bhaai- bhabhi... Mom is calling you"
I opened the door and said just two minutes.
Wearing the matching pair of footwear we went down and everyone was like waiting just for us only to come down.
Moving down from the stairs we both saw each pair of eyes on us. I saw everyone of our family there and everyone was looking amazing.
...........................................................................
I joined Pari in decorating the house with the diyas. Moving up towards the terrace with the diyas Adi helped me ligting them.
I decorated the rangoli with the diyas and it was looking very beautiful. I was stuck in the between and couldn't find place to move out because of the dress.
And here in the corner Adi was looking at me and laughing
"Stop laughing please and help me na...."
"How could you do this to yourself"
I made a puppy face and said "stop laughing.. your wifey is stuck here how could you laugh"
"What can i do if she is like this"
My mouth opened in shock with what he said and he laughed more holding his stomach.
I made a fake angry face and turned backwards to him and started to plan to move out.
After planning and doing calculations I was ready to take a step when I was pucked up by him in bridal style..
"Leave me Adi.. you were laughing at me. I am angry at you"
"Ok be angry but first let me take you out from here"
He put me down when we were out of the rangoli. Encircling his hands on my wasted he put he closer to him and i collided with his hard chest. I looked up into his eyes and he was looking into my eyes. I too encircled my hands in his back.
We both were lost in each others eyes. He started to move near my lips. His manly mist filled in my nostrils. I could feel his hot breath and smell the minty breath and he softly attached it with my lips.
"Nammu papa is calling you he wants... Ohh my god... Shit.. I am sorry" and i saw didi turning. She had covered her face by har both hands
Adi immediately left me and i also moved back from him.
"Are you guyz sober now?" She said while turning towards us and moving her hands down
"Yes di.. umm.. you said papa wants something"
"Nothing you both continue" she winked at us and started to leave. I was completely red here and here Adi was grinning. He is becoming so shameless these days.
"Ohh no di.. tell me"
" Nammu stay here.. I will give him.. somebody wants you here"
I saw Adi silently saying thank you to didi and she smiled and left. I started to walk fastly to go from there and join everyone but holding my wrist he again pulled me.
"Adi leave me na someone will see us"
"Ok then give me a kiss"
"No.. leave me i need to go.. and i am angry at you don't forget"
"Ok then lets see how much time you could be angry with me" saying he held me more tightly and started tickling me
"Aadddddiiii.... This is unfair" i started laughing badly
"First say you are not angry on me"
"No i am still mad at you"
"Ok then" and he tickled me more
I was reaching out of breath now "addddii... P..pp...pll..ee.. aaaasssseeeee... Please leave me"
"First say you are not angry at me"
" Ok fine i am not mad you" as the words left from my mouth he left me. Planting a kiss on my forehead he left from there. And i was still standing there recovering from those ticking sensations and filling myself up with oxygen.
...........................................................................
Everyone sat down and the puja of goddess laxmi had begun. Siddarth and his family had also joined us. Rohan and Pooja and their family was also here and all his friends were here.
After the puja had ended and everyone started to burst some crackers and i went inside as i am very scared if crackers. I feel like they would burst on me.
I could watch them only but from very far away.
"Namrata... Namrata" i heard maa calling me
"Yes maa coming"
"What are you doing here come with us to enjoy the crackers"
" mom i am scared of them"
"Come with me i am also scared of them"
We both were watching everyone sitting in a corner.
By this time all the elders were inside the house. Siddarth and Pooja came upto me and said "oye Nammu this year you will also burst crackers"
"No never"
"Such a coward by heart you are.. come now... Wait let me call jiju"
Pari also came here "bhabhi come na its no enjoyment without you"
Pooja brought Adi and said "jiju now tell her to come and burst"
"What happened Nammu why you are not coming there"
"Adi i am scared of crackers. It feels like it will burst on me only"
"Ok then you don't need to join there"
"Thank you"
"That's unfair bhaiya" pari said
"Very unfair jiju.. you are supposed to be on our side" siddarth said
"Ok then you choose Nammu between these two"
"Of fine what is it"
"Either you come with us or kiss Adi infront of us" pooja said
"What no.. i mean none of them"
"You don't have any options sweetie" pooja said
"I have third option to sit here just"
"You have to choose baby between the two" Adi said
I looked at him with wide open eyes..
"Ok fine i will come"
"Don't you think the second option was the easy one" he whispered when everyone left .
"I guess" saying i lightly pulled him down towards me and planted a kiss on his cheeks..
"Done" i shouted and started to move to the house.
"No you are not... do it again we all want to see"
"Technically i did it. You didn't mentioned to do infront of you"
"But.. no Thats cheating"
"Baby she has a point" rohan said to pooja
"Ok fine she has done"
"Lets go"
I was sitting with Saanvi on my lap and i was happily playing with her. When mom called everyone of us inside as it was time for Maa Kaali Puja.
The puja ended in the morning and we all now looked like a zombie. We all had changed into some comfortable clothes.
After the puja ended i served the prashad to everyone and we all went to get some sleep .
...........................................................................
It was next day lunch time when the bhog was being served to everyone in the lunch time. Everyone had left for their home then.
It was almost evening when everyone had left for their home.. As today they would get some rest then tomorrow they have to join for the Visarjan of the idol of Maa Kaali...
____________________________________
Authors note- in bengali ritual the worship of Maa kaali is done in the diwali. Besides for bengali is rarely called as "Diwali". We maily call it "kali pujo". The kali puja is being done full night. As its kali puja its amavasya..
