Arjun
"Arjun, when will you bring your wife back?" My mother asked as soon as I entered the main house.
And I replied same as before, "Whenever she wants too!"
I came back from my trip after three days, as the work was completed earlier than expected. Since then my mom was insisting me get her back.
"I am sick of this answer, Arjun! I want her back by tomorrow! Do whatever you want to. But I want your wife back by tomorrow morning." She said and left to get me my coffee.
If it was up to me I would've brought her back as soon as I landed in Hyderabad. But I wanted to give her some time, to think over about everything. And I'd like to think that she did thought about me all the time.
Taking my phone from my pocket, I dialed the man who is head of Adrika's security detail.
"Namaste sir!" He said immediately after attending the call.
"Namaste, where is Adrika right now?" I asked.
"Sir, ma'am is at her brother's Kondapur Apartment with her brother and two other friends." He said.
"Ok. If there is any new update just let me know." I said.
"Yes sir!" He said and I hung up.
I came to know that Adrika and Aadhira have three friends, Rudra, Nishitha and Ishika and about their professions. Their records came clean. Though Rudra and Ishika are public servants, are prone to scrutiny, my sources found nothing about them in their basic investigation. I am really curious to know how they became close.
I know Aadhira and Adrika are closed off people when it comes to strangers and they have no trust in outsiders. But what is the reason behind their meeting and closeness. I really want to dig deep but stopped myself from doing so.
My phone rang and I picked up seeing the caller.
"Yes, Anand!"
"Annaya, we fixed the glitch."
"Good. When will you come?"
"Annaya, do we have any vacation property in backwaters?"
"I don't think we have one in Kerala, Anand. But why are you asking Anand?"
"Why means. I really want to buy something in Kerala, and I believe Kerala backwaters are super scenic. If you agree, I will look for some properties and you can select the best one when you visit next month."
"No need wait for me, Anand. I believe you. You buy the best one. Remember the guidelines Srikar Babai taught when you are looking for the property. Okay?"
"No annaya. I want you to look at the properties before buying."
"Ok. Avoid looking in cities, Anand."
"Will do. Then I will come by next weekend."
"Ok ra. Remember Anand, you can make the final decision."
"I know, but I don't want to. Bye annaya."
"Bye."
My phone buzzed. I looked at the screen and It was Adrika's head security who messaged me.
Sir, mam and her brother with their friends are in sneaky pub.
I read his message.
"This stupid girl!" I told to myself.
"Who are you scolding, Arjun anna?" my youngest cousin, Anvesh asked.
"Adrika" I said.
"Oh. You mean the new girl?" He asked.
I looked at him and said, "She is not a girl, Anvesh. She is my wife and you have to call her vadina."
"If she is you wife, then why is she not there with you. I have not seen her in last two weeks." He said.
"She went to her mother's house, Anvesh. She will come tomorrow. And I want you to befriend her. Ok?"
"Ok Anna. But only if she wants to." He said and ran towards his room.
I called one of my guards to bring a car to the entrance and we drove towards the pub. It is about 30 minutes drive from my home.
It is silent a drive with me checking photos of our sangeeth night. The photos has just started coming and these are the first ones. We enjoyed a lot on that day. All of my closest friends attended every event of my wedding. As their parents are mine and Adrika's family friends, we invited them. There is no who's side wins in our sangeeth because Adrika's family is not as big as us and also we did not wanted that kind of event.
Looking at the photos I noticed that Adrika is only in hand full of the pictures and I believe that they were captured at the beginning of the event. And there is no picture of us.
"Arjun Sir!" My guard Gopi called.
"We reached." he said after I looked at him.
"I'll go. Bring the car to the back entrance." I said and left car.
One of the Adrika's security guy took me through the crowd and to where she is.
There I saw Adrika in a white sequin top, chugging down the shots like it is a competition. I can say she is drunk.
Just then I saw Aadhira going towards her. I too made a bee line towards her.
"OH! Someone is mighty drunk I see!" I heard Aadhira saying as I reached near.
"Yesss!" She replied instantly. I stood behind her.
Aadhira saw me and waved his hand. I too did the same.
"Okay, will you walk or should I take you?" He asked looking at me.
She showed him her hands.
Aadhira looked at me and I gestured I will take care.
Next second I picked her in bridal style. I think she is between 55-60KGs. That much light weight she is. I lift more than 100 kgs in weight lifting.
"How are you still infront of me? Are in mirrir?" She asked in slurred tone and started moving hands towards Aadhira.
Aadhira looked at me amusedly and said, "Adrika, I am not the one holding you."
"Oh! Is Rudy holding me?" She asked again. My blood boiled when I imagined her in other man's hand. But I didn't show it on my face as Aadhira is watching me.
"No!"
After a few seconds I heard her saying I'm so intelligent and turned towards me.
She is making weird faces which made me laugh.
As if realization hit her she slurred, "Arjun!"
Then Aadhira asked if I want to take her with me, I replied with a yes.
Adrika is looking at me smiling.
"Please take care of her." He said, I nodded.
I placed her in the back seat of the car and then I sat beside her.
"To home." I told my guard.
