Arranged Marriage pt 13

The next morning Pallavi woke up with a frown on her face. She was so used to sleeping in the arms of Raghav that without him with her, she couldn't sleep properly. She also had a strange feeling about a dream that she had. She dreamt that Raghav came to her at night and promised to make everything right again, that he will fight for their love.

If only that dream were true.... oh wait I forgot, he doesn't even care for me let alone love me. he'd never do that.

She brushed off her thoughts and went downstairs to prepare breakfast. She made the breakfast and set it up on the table waiting for her family to come downstairs. She looked at the food in front of her and her heart ached. Within the past couple of weeks it had become a daily habit for Pallavi to serve Raghav his breakfast otherwise he'd stick to his protein shake which wasn't good for him. She sighed realising she doesn't have the right to do so anymore.

Amma and Raghav came downstairs and greeted Pallavi. She replied back to Amma and Amma only. Raghav frowned.

she doesn't even want to greet me, good going Raghav, you really fucked up.

Pallavi served herself and Amma food and sat down. Raghav was shocked.

when she said she won't give me food anymore I didn't actually think she meant it.

Raghav looked at his empty plate and then looked at Pallavi. He stared at her for a good few seconds only for her to ignore him again. He sighed and took out food for himself. Raghav ate the food in pain. He tried to make conversation with her but it was no use. Pallavi finished up and excused herself.

" I don't know what you did, but you need to fix it immediately. why do you always manage to stuff things up... I told you the other day in the hospital to cherish your wife, but it seems to me that you did the exact opposite." Amma said shaking her head in disappointment.

Raghav's pov

I need to do something to make her forgive me. I miss hearing her voice. Amma is right, my dumbass always ruins everything. I walked into the kitchen to find Pallavi cutting up some fruit.

so she does care, I knew she wouldn't forget about my daily fruit

I looked at her and saw she was lost in deep thought, I decided not to bother her and let her be, I turned around to leave when I heard a gasp.

"Ahhh" Pallavi said in pain.

I immediately turned around and ran to her.

"what happened, show me." I said concerned.

I took her finger in my hands and saw she sliced it, it was bleeding quite a bit.

"Saree Ka Dukaan, where were you lost? look what you've done to yourself, come let me clean it up, it must be hurting a lot." I said worriedly.

She took her finger out of my hand, "you don't need to pretend to care, besides this wound's pain is nothing compared to the pain from the wound you've given me." She said flatly looking straight into my eyes.

well, that hurt.

"Pallavi please, I know you're angry with me but please let me help you." I said pleading her

"Stop it Raghav, you pretending to care about me is only causing me more pain. Just leave me alone." she said hurt.

she thinks I'm pretending?

I was about to say something but she walked off and she took the fruit with her too.

not my fruit.
