Entwined (Slow Updates)

As always, the pile of clothes surrounded the whole bedroom, Randeep moved past them somehow and stood beside bed, keeping his eyes on his wife who was busy in pulling every single clothe from the cupboard.

Only God knew how messy she could be. Even more than him. He didn't know whether he should be happy about that because now there'd be somebody else too who would get scolding for being messy or cry as who'd keep the check for being this messy.

"Baisa Raj ke karo ho. Sagla kapda inne binne khindya raakha hai," At last when he couldn't tolerate anymore, he said it.
(Baisa Raj what are you doing ? Why these clothes are scattered everywhere ?)

"Mahra kapda, thaane ke. Zyada panchayat na lagao," She was already hyperventilating and said anything which came into her mouth.
(My clothes, why it has to do something with you. Don't interfere into this)

The sharpness of her tone couldn't be avoided easily, he was taken back as he didn't expect something like that. He just genuinely asked and what he got in return, harshness.

"Watch your tone Maanvi," His jaws clenched as he spoke, the hardness in his tone.

"Okay okay, I will. Now don't distract me. Shoo away," She seemed to be least bother as she didn't even glanced at him, continuing her work.

Randeep wanted to say something but held himself back and left from there without making any noise.

Hearing no noises, maanvi turned to glance at her husband but found no one in the room except her.

Where did he went ?  She shrugged and continued with her work. And at last, she came to conclusion that she should be wearing black glittery  bodycon dress her taashi jija had gifted her. No doubt, she was excited for today's outing with her college mates along with her husband. Her husband! Where did he go ? As their home sounded peaceful. She decided to check upon him and would show him the dress she selected for tonight, too.

She called out for him entering the living room but met with silence only which was odd as he was one of the noisy lad.

She searched for her phone to call him. And soon she dialled his number which said he was busy on other call. Must be office related call. She shrugged and resumed selecting matching accessories with dress and footwear all the while, royally ignoring the piles of clothes.

As soon as she was done with selecting everything, she mentally patted her shoulder. She glanced at the wall clock which showed that she still had good enough two hours to get ready. She squealed excitedly when someone hastily entered the room through door which was wide open. Who was none other than her husband!

"What happened ?"

"We are not going out today. Call your friends and tell them about the change in plan," He said, somehow reaching the cupboard leaving her all confused.

"But why ?" She asked.

"Because I said so," His reply came in clipped voice.

"But you just can't refuse at last moment," She threw her hands in air, clearly looking all buffled.

"I can and I'm doing that only. I have to go office urgently," He took out his office clothes move toward restroom to change into them, when her voice stopped her.

"Can't this work wait until tomorrow," She furrowed her brows and questioned.

"Don't be ridiculous Maanvi. Behave like an adult. I'll be late so don't wait up for me."

She just kept looking at his retreating back but couldn't say anything. He could've just said this politely, what was the need to shout. She chided cursing her husband inwardly before picking up her phone to inform her friends about her cancelled plan.
