True Love ✓

18

The upcoming week passes by with Venkatesh buying me gifts like saree , small romantic paper weights and sweets. He has been going extra sweet on me , I usually would just say thank you and keep the gifts aside. Would wear it at times if he insists otherwise not responding much but he seemed happy and excited all throughout.

I am afraid I am giving him the wrong signals but I don't want him the way he was a week ago. He was behaving like a possessed maniac beating up his own friends but I don't know if I could believe in him just yet.....

"Wifeeeey" I hear his deep voice making me turn around just in time to look at him enter the kitchen with a rich looking leather bag in his hand.

"Here , I bought this for you today. Try this on for me na ?" He asks stuffing the bag into my hands.

"What is this ?" I ask frowning as I look at the bag.

"A makeup kit , I know you don't have one so I bought you this" he says beaming wide making my mood falter.

Make up kit really ? He is seriously going a little overboard.

"I don't want this Venkatesh" I say in a bored tone stuffing the bag back into his hands making his smile falter.

"But wifey I bought this for you so lovingly ! Atleast try it once na ?" He says keeping his face pleading as he pokes his lower lip out.

"No" I say shaking my head as I turn around to switch off the gas.

"Then what will I do with it now ?" He asks pleadingly as I turn around.

"Just return it back" I say folding my hands infront of me.

"Bu---" he starts to argue again but I cut him.

"I am allergic to makeup so I can't wear it. And most of all what is the price of this by the way ?" I ask accusingly.

"Oh then atleast you can keep it as a memory na ?" He insists , keeping his face still pleadingly.

"First of all answer my question ! How much does this cost ?" I ask back sternly making him look like he just swallowed a cat full.

"14 thousands four hundred fifty five only" he recites lowly I almost can't hear.

"WHAT ? Venkatesh seriously ! I can't have such a costly product with me just as a memory because my ex-bully now husband gave it to me !" I shout angrily annoyed due to his persistence.

His face completely falls as he looks at me with guilt.

"Sorry wifey , it is just my fault I shouldn't have forced you li----" he starts but I cut him off.

"Stop it Venkatesh ! I don't care just stop buying and giving me all these presents and gifts ! This can't make me forgive you , find a way to do it properly !" I shout stomping off to our room and taking out the book I have been reading , resuming it.

After an hour I close the book and stretch my arms standing up , I yawn feeling sleepy as I walk downstairs to look for Venkatesh. But he isn't in the hall or anywhere else. Atha , maama and Raja have went to a temple festivel I didn't go because athai told me to stay back for Venkatesh and take care of him. After the incident of him going missing everyone have been shook , we all have been taking extra care of him until , well until I lashed out on him this evening.

I then enter the kitchen only for my heat to fall out of my chest at the sight infront of me. There on the kitchen floor is Venkatesh , all his shirt buttons scattered all over the floor as he has a knife in his hand cutting his bloodied palm repeatedly mumbling "I hurt my wifey ! I hurt my Vaishali ! I hurt my wifey ! I hurt my Vaishali !" Again and again and again as I watch him freezed in my place with shock.

"VENKATESH ! WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING ?!" I shout running to him and kneeling down swiftly and quickly smacking the knife out if his hand making him look at me in a flash with bloodshot eyes , a different psychic emotion in them.

"Wifey ! Wifey wifey wifey ! Please forgive me ! I hurt you na ? I hurt you bad na ? Stupid me ! Idiot me ! Arrogant me ! I don't deserve to live but I want to live with you by my side ! No ! I can't die ! Wifey please forgive me ! It is hurting so bad" he says in a desperate tone making tears flood my eyes as I feel shocked and guilt to the core. Sadness and concern overwhelming all those feelings including my love for him.

"Oh Venkatesh why did you cut yourself like this ? Gosh now you are saying that it is paining ! Give me your hand !!" I shriek grabbing his hand in mine but then he pulls it back from me.

"My hand is not paining gundoos , my heart is. I can not see you hate me like this. Please don't do this to me" he pleads.

Time freezes around me as I look at his blood everywhere , his pleading face among it and everything he has done for me so far , even beating up his own friends whom I know he liked and trusted a lot.

I love him yeah but am I satisfied enough to forgive him....?

Heck yeah !!

"Oh Venkatesh" I gasp hugging him as I let out a sob.

Yes he hurt me but this ! I can't let him hurt himself ! It is not right ! Call me a stupid and a dumbo for doing this but I am ! I am risking my options for my love ! Only for him !

I have hoped for so long he would love me back , now I know he did all along and would do anything for me even if it means hurting his loved ones. I can't let him hurt anyone or himself longer anymore. I need to step up and just accept him and let my love take over.

I just.....I should....I am going to.....

"Please don't hurt yourself like this Venkatesh. It freaking hurts me to see you like this ! You have no idea how much I loved you....how much I still love you....how hard it is for me to move on without you ! How hard it was........b-but please promise me you won't hurt me again. Please" I breath out holding his head closer to my body.

"I promise wifey ! I promise ! I would never ever hurt you ! I promise" he says pulling away looking into my eyes happily.

I nod my head kissing his forehead as we hug each other tightly.
