OUR MARRIAGE IS JUST A PIECE OF PAPER : EPISODES 61 – 70
Episode 63
I was really frustrated now.
“Yeah… I know… But don’t do it anywhere near our house.
What if Dad saw you…” I know I had made her angry now. I could see the look in her eyes.
“Ansh… You are disgusting. We weren’t doing anything wrong. And everyone knows he is just a friend. He needed some comfort, so….”
“So… You were comforting him…” I said grabbing her by her arms. She looked directly into my eyes.
They were red. She had changed into her sweat pants and jersey, but even in that, she looked mesmerizing. Her fragrance!
Ansh, you mustn’t think any of that.
“Huh!! Ahana… Tell me. What the heck is going on… I don’t understand. You had planned everything with him. You even said that I won’t show up.”
“So… Now you are tapping my calls too, or you were eavesdropping. How could you do that? Don’t you know there’s a word called privacy?” She said looking strong.
“I know… Okay!! You need privacy with that friend of yours.
I know you hate. I know you didn’t want to marry me. But you know what… You couldn’t help it. Now since your friend is back… Have fun…”
I said, holding her more tightly.
I saw her fresh tears.
I know I was the only reason again.
“Ansh… You are hurting me.
” I realized my grip had tightened around her. I let go and grabbed my bottle, which I had placed down before holding her, and took a long sip.
“You should stop now. Go to sleep, Ansh…” She said, holding my hands. I jerked her away.
“You can’t order me…” I said, moving downstairs toward the main gate.
“Ansh.. Stop!! Where are you going?” She came running towards me. I quickly grabbed my car keys.
“Ansh… Come on now. Don’t act like a kid. You can’t drive. It’s 1 am. Where do you think you are heading to?”
“I am Ansh Raichand, and I can do everything. I know I am heading to nowhere, but it’s better than here.”
Saying so, I left in my Mercedes. I raced it faster, and I could see Ahana running behind to stop me. Tears still falling down.
I had to be far away from her to make those tears stop.
The road was deserted. I was so frustrated with myself. I stopped the car abruptly. I didn’t know what was going on in my mind.
I thought of going to the office but then I stayed in my car.
All the events of today were constantly coming in front of me.
From, gorgeous Ahana in her dress to Jaai and their hug. Why??
What was going on between them was so oblivious to me. I also did a background check of him but I didn’t get any results.
I had to leave from Mir’s place immediately. Jen called me to inform me that the dealers from China had arrived a day prior.
Ahana wasn’t picking up her phone, so she contacted me. I didn’t want to disturb her more.
I thought she would rest for a while at home while I clear things up, but then she wanted to stay there.
How easily she said that Jaai will drop her? But then at that moment I ignored it. I quickly wind up with the Chinese dealers.

When I returned home, I was surprised that Ahana wasn’t home yet. I tried working, but my mind constantly drifted to her. Wondering what she was doing now and where she was.
To free my mind, I went to the balcony and then what I saw from there was even more agitating.
Jaai and Ahana got down from the car, and they were hugging so tightly that they won’t ever leave each other.
She was wiping off his tears. They both were deeply discussing something.
I returned to my room again. An hour or half later, after finally getting tired of waiting, I decided to check on them personally.
When I got out of my room, I saw Ahana sitting on the stairs. What was she doing there? And that too for how long?
I heard her sniff. How I wish to cuddle her in my arms and comfort her, although I don’t know the reason behind her tears. But again that image came flashing in my mind. So, I ruined everything yet again.
I was definitely the reason now for her tears. All of a sudden, a downpour of rain started. I realized that monsoon had arrived finally.
I was still in my car, covered by thunder and rain. Even the weather was reflecting my thoughts.
I was tired mentally as well as physically. Running in a marathon without actually running.
I don’t know from whom I am running away.
I just wish that one day everything is back to normal.

Bright sun rays fell on my face, awakening me. Yesterday night I slept in the car somewhere on the middle of a deserted road. I woke up with a sudden jerk. My back was aching terribly. I didn’t realize when my eyelashes shut.
I looked at my watch. It was still 8:15. The sky was looking all clear and blue.
Giving hopes that it definitely gets bright after a cloudy night.
I drove back to my house. I desperately needed coffee. When I entered, I saw Ahana sleeping on the sofa. It looked like she was waiting for me. I saw 23 missed calls on my cellphone.
God! Why does she always want to torture herself due to me? I went close to her, bringing the memories of my birthday back.
How she perfectly fitted in my arms when I carried her to my room. So I had that honor again. I removed her single strand from her cheeks, and I think this time she woke up.
“Ansh…. You came….” She opened her eyes. Oh!! I missed the chance of holding her and taking her to the room. I wished I had controlled a bit.
“Ahana… Why don’t you go and rest?” Now she was perfectly awake and I could clearly see she was angry with me.
“Are you insane? Do you even care how worried I was? First you drink like crazy and then you have the audacity to drive at such a speed. And on top of that, you don’t even pick up my calls. That’s pathetic. Not expected…” She was chiding me now as if I was a baby.
I know I deserved all of that.
“Look at yourself in the mirror… What have you made yourself? We have a meeting. Go freshen up. I’ll prepare us coffee.”
I looked at her in her sleep-deprived eyes. Straight for the first time that morning. I loved the way she showed her possession over me. I know it was momentary.
“Good… You came back before Dad woke up, or else I don’t know what would have happened. Now will you say something or just keep on staring?”
“Oh… I am sorry…” Is all I could manage. I know I looked miserable as if I didn’t sleep well. But seriously, I don’t get peaceful sleeps without her beside me.
“Sorry accepted. Now go before everyone else wakes up. And Ansh…” She called me while I was going to our room.
“Hmmm…”
“Please shave. I know how you met the dealers yesterday. I want today to be perfect, and also, you should look perfect.” I nodded, smiling, which she returned graciously.
I swear this woman is going to be the death of me. How could she forgive me so easily after all I have done? I really don’t deserve any of that. How does she know about the dealers? And even my desperate need for coffee.
I put those thoughts aside and with a wide smile plastered on my face, I went for a shower.

AHANA’S POV
I felt someone familiar near me. I opened my eyes quickly. It was Ansh. Finally, I felt relieved after seeing him.
He had scared me when he didn’t pick up his cell phone, but luckily I tracked him using the cell tracker and found his location to be constant. I knew he wanted some time alone, so I stopped bothering him after that.
There was no point fighting unnecessarily. He always misunderstood me. Can’t help it.
I know he is fighting with himself to accept all this, so I welcomed him in the morning warmly. I was in the kitchen preparing coffee and breakfast.
Sara was doing the breakfast. I knew they liked my coffee, and we had an important meeting, and I wanted everything to be perfectly fine.
“Oh! Gosh… It smells delicious. I swear I really can’t start my day without this. You have intoxicated me, Ahana.” I heard him.
