OUR MARRIAGE IS JUST A PIECE OF PAPER : EPISODES 81 – 90

Episode 88

“Ahana… Ansh needs some time. And I think we must give him that.” Piya told me while we left. I think she was correct.

Perhaps things are happening a bit too fast. I never imagined that I would ever be in such a situation. I never planned on becoming pregnant, but it just happened.

God wanted that to happen. But I am very happy anyway. And I know Ansh will be too.

He just needs time to compose himself. Men are always like this…

They never realize what they want in life. And when they realize, it’s too late. Just like what happened with Jaai.

I won’t let anything of that sort happen to Ansh. He deserves all the happiness and he will get it.

“Ahana… We reached.” Dad called me, bringing me back from my thoughts.
“Yes…..”

“Ahana… I am really sorry for whatever Ansh did today. I swear he is…”
“…… just messed up. I know Dad. I am fine. Grandad and you must rest now.” I said, completely Dad’s sentence. They can’t always keep on apologizing for Ansh.

They went to their rooms, and I came to mine. I called Ansh thrice, but he didn’t answer. I changed and had my pills. I took a novel to read, but my mind wasn’t at rest at all.

I was thinking, where was Ansh, and was he fine?

It’s almost quarter to 12 now. I kept the novel aside and got off from the bed. I was getting a bit tense now. I went and stood on the balcony.

The night sky with some stars was still looking bland, reflecting my mood. I pulled my jacket closer to my body as a cold breeze swayed past me.

Ansh!!! Where are you? Please come home. I am waiting for you.
“Ahana……… You still awake?”

That voice… was a remedy to my pain. I turned around, and some tears swelled up in my eyes.

Ansh was standing in the doorway, all messed up. I quickly walked towards him, and I could easily make out that he was intoxicated. The strong alcoholic smell was noticeable.

“Ansh… Where the heck were you? You scared us.”

”Ah!! You still care after what I have done.” He said as I neared him.
“Of course… Everyone does. Come on now. Sleep.” I said, pulling him towards the bed.

Suddenly, he jerked my hand off his shoulder.

“No… Wait… Tell me… Seriously. After I have abandoned you so many times. I left you alone again. I have hurt you.

But Still….. You care. I know you are lying, no one cares. And I am not drunk Ahana. I know what am I speaking.”

You are intoxicated Ansh. I know you won’t remember any of this.

“Come… I’ll help.” I said pulling his blazer away from his body and taking him towards the bed.

“Tell me… Please. I know I don’t deserve you or anyone else. I am so very bad… You don’t even look at me.

You don’t even speak with me.”
Ansh was constantly jabbering. But I paused when he said those lines. I stopped and looked at him.

“Who said I don’t look at you. Who said I don’t talk to you Ansh…

Of course, I look at my handsome husband in the crowds. I look for his deep brown eyes in them.

I miss his presence near me. You can’t always assume things.”

It was the first time I was saying this to Ansh. But I wasn’t lying.

His eyes were closed now. I didn’t even know if he listened to what I said. I removed his shoes.

He wriggled a bit and then lay still.
“I know I am a very mean selfish person. I can’t care for anyone.

I can’t even take proper care of you.” Ansh was still talking. I moved my hand through his silky hair for the first time. To compose him.

He opened his eyes. I saw a lot of pain in them.

“Ahana… Please don’t… I don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve this…” Before he could say anything more I pressed my lips against his.

I closed his eyes with my hand and gave him a small long peck. To indicate that he must keep quiet and sleep now.
