Barrister Babu: The Journey Ahead

First Fight and Roshogulla Romance

Three days later, they were packing for their vacation, when Anirudh started to yell at Bondita. 

"Bondita, where are the property papers?" Anirudh asked. 

The property they were visiting had important papers that Anirudh needed to give the munshi ji who took care of matters over there. They couldn't lose those papers at any cost. 

"I don't know Pati Babu," she said, trying to decide which sarees she wanted to take with her. 

"Bondita, didn't I tell you not to touch it?" Anirudh yelled, causing her to look up with a start. "Does this not look like a serious matter to you?" 

Bondita frowned. He had been so soft towards her ever since she came back from London, that she should have known something was fishy. 

When she was a child, he used to yell at her so much. She was used to this side of him -- the fitoori Pati Babu who used to always show his fitoor in small day to day things too, even with her. 

Bondita was no less though. She knew how to handle him very well. 

She ignored him and pulled a pink saree from the wardrobe, putting it in the suitcase. 

"Bondita!" Anirudh screamed. 

She stopped and looked at him, a frown on her face. 

"I told you not to touch it, but you didn't listen to me!" Anirudh continued. 

She huffed as he went on and on in his rant. 

After some time, Bondita asked, "Are you done?" 

Anirudh looked taken aback. 

"What?" he asked. 

"Are you done?" she repeated calmly. 

Anirudh just looked at her. 

"I guess you are," she said, then she left her suitcase and stormed out of the room. 

Anirudh heard the clink of her anklets get quieter as quieter. He folded his arms and sat on the bed. 

Bondita on the other hand went to the study and sat on the couch, folding her arms and puffing her cheeks out the same way she did when she was younger when she was upset. 

Later when she went back to the room, she searched for the papers and found them behind the dressing table. She slid the papers in her bag, and didn't say anything to him.

Anirudh came in the room later that night, but Bondita had already slipped in bed. She was ignoring him. 

"Bondita? Are you awake?" he asked her, getting in bed next to her. 

Her eyes were closed, and she wasn't responding to him. 

He hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek. 

"I yelled at you a lot right? I'm sorry," he told her softly. 

Bondita ignored him, even though her heart was melting at his words. No, she was still upset with him. 

He kissed her neck softly from behind her, invoking certain sensations in Bondita's body, but Bondita ignored them and kept her eyes closed. His hand slid around her waist and Bondita could feel his fingers pull up her saree so that her legs would become bare. 

Bondita's eyes opened now. She turned around to tell him off, but he grabbed her hand and pinned her arm down to the bed, smashing his lips against hers before she had a chance to say anything to him. 

He kissed her with desire and Bondita almost lost herself in that kiss, but she had enough self-control to turn her face and say, "I am tired." 

Anirudh let her go, and she turned her back to him again, closing her eyes. 

He realized that she must have really gotten upset with him for what happened earlier. He needed to pacify her in other ways, and he knew exactly how to do that. 

The next morning, Anirudh woke up before her. He had placed an order of roshogullas and had them delivered as an extra special request, as most places didn't open so early. 

Bondita could eat roshogullas at any time of the day. While he didn't like to promote the idea of having roshogullas so early in the morning, to appease her, he needed to do this. 

He had lost his temper for a moment earlier yesterday and the blame came to his poor wife. He didn't mean to yell at her, but it just happened to come out that way. Even before she went to London, he had always lost his temper on her for small things. It was a shade of him that wasn't his strength, but nevertheless getting worked up was part of his personality. 

He brought the eight handiyas of ek badam wale roshogullas inside the room in a tray and then sat beside her on the bed. 

Anirudh gently ran his fingers over her hair, causing her to open her eyes. When she saw him first thing in the morning, instinctively a smile reached her lips, but then remembering yesterday's events, she turned it into a frown. 

"Good morning my love," he told her softly, and Bondita knew he was being extra sweet to appease her, but she was not going to listen so easily this time. 

She sat up and noticed the handiyas of ek badam wale roshogullas, her tongue salivating already at the thought of them. She licked her lips. 

Anirudh noticed this and with a smile, he opened one of the handiyas. He picked up a roshogulla and said, "I wanted to start your day off with something sweet." 

He brought the roshogulla to her lips, but Bondita turned her face, her lips brushing past the roshogulla, causing the chaashni to drip down her chin. 

Anirudh smiled. He knew that she would be stubborn. As he held the roshogulla, some of the chaashni dropped down her collarbone, sliding down lower on her skin. 

"Whether you want to have the roshogulla or not Bondita, I want to have you," he teased, his voice seductive. 

Bondita felt her cheeks flush and she turned to look at him, her self-control dropping slightly. Anirudh leaned closer to her and licked the chaashni sensuously off he collarbone. 

Her head slid back, giving him easier access to the area. 

"Yummy," he murmured against her skin. 

Her hands gripped the bedsheet tightly with pleasure, and he lifted his head up. Taking a bite into the roshogulla, he leaned towards her lips to feed it to her with his mouth. 

Bondita's chest was heaving up and down in deep pleasure as she took the roshogulla from his lips. As she took it in her mouth, her lips brushed over his ever so slightly, making her shudder. Then she turned her face again. 

Anirudh smiled and was about to feed her the other half of the roshogulla when Bondita suddenly stood up and wiped her mouth with her hand. 

Then without saying another word to him, she stormed off. 

With a frown, his gaze followed her as she went to the bathroom and locked herself in it. 

They were supposed to leave for their vacation to Goa today, and she was still upset with him. 

What could he do to pacify her now?
