SACRIFICE

4.

Aarohi

It was 4 when I heard my alarm . I tried getting up before I'm late but i felt a sharp pain in my lower back and fell back on the bed. I saw him beside me sleeping peacefully. I tried to suppress the hiss not to wake him up. Somehow I managed to. I went to the washroom got fresh and changed into a pink saree and got ready for work. Allot of work.

I went towards the kitchen and started the work. I had was hungry , i had not had anything since yesterday but if I eat now i won't have time to get breakfast ready. So i ignored my hunger and started getting breakfast ready. Around an hour and half it was all done. It was 6 now i had time so i went towards ironing the clothes of Nitya Rahul Nakul and his

I completed it in time and now the biggest task! Waking up Nitya . God this girl sleeps like God knows what.
So first time conservation, first wakeup Rahul.

"Rahul" i shouted and knocked on his door continuesly. "Wake Up it's 7 you will get late for college get up fast" i kept shouting from outside and soon a sleepy Rahul opens the door rubbing his eyes. "Good morning bhabhi" " Morning to you too cutes" " Bhabhi yaar I'm not cute I'm handsome" he said a little irritated" and i giggled "No you are cute for me, now take this and get ready" i handed him the clothes and pinched his cheeks and ran away. "Bhabiii"

Next i went towards my room. I was sweating already. I had to wake him up. I entered and saw him sleeping like a baby. He looked soo handsome. C'mon he is my husband i got the right to oogle. I slightly touched his shoulder trying to wake him up. "Rehaan" please wakeup. And i was soon pulled towards him and fell on him and i started breathing fast what is he doing?
Has he accepted me? Does he like me
you waking me up is all ive ever dreamt of" he said rubbing circles on my hand . " I love you" Surprised would be an understatement. I was on cloud nine. He accepted me. I am lovable. Step mom was wrong. He won't leave me. He loves me. I was so happy

And then he said something that broke my heart

"Eesha..I love you soo much"
That's when he opened his eyes and saw my face and pushed me off him and i fell down on my back and i screamed because of the pain . "Aah my back"

" How dare you come close to me ha? How dare you? Look at yourself so desperate. You are not even my standard. Not even close. Don't come in front of me from today you understand. This is just a formality marriage and nothing else. Out of my room" he screamed at me .

Rehaan

I shouted and she stood up and went out not before hanging my clothes.

Shit! I lost it ,yesterday night Eesha texted me and I talked to her before I slept and this is the result. I was sweating and ran my hand through my hairs. I drank a glass of water and went to freshen up with the clothes. I was not going office today as i had zoom meetings only.

Aarohi

"How dare you come close to me ha? How dare you? Look at yourself so desperate. You are not even my standard. Not even close. Don't come in front of me from today you understand. This is just a formality marriage and nothing else. Out of my room" was all running in my head with tears falling one after another

What have i done to deserve this. Mumma what have i done  I thought and kept running until I ran into Rahul who was busy on the phone. "Bhabhi slowly" i just turned away from him not showing how miserable i was. "Bhabhi you okay?" " Yes, can you please wake up Nitya i have work in the kitchen i have hanged her clothes in the room itself" with that i ran away.
I went downstairs towards the kitchen trying to compose myself so that the workers also don't see my condition.
I tried drinking water but with my tears i kind of felt choked as they kept running down. A few minutes later i was better and tried to compose myself

"Bhabhi what happened? Are you okay?" He asked worried

"Yes yes I'm good, you need something? Arey afcourse your coffee, wait 5mins I'll make it" i said trying to change the topic

"Bhabhi can you make 2 cups? Actually um, Tara slept a little before and she wont be able to be up" he said rubbing his neck with a little blush and i understood

"Aha got it devarji, 2 cups on the way"and i started making

"Bhabhi are you okay? You know you can tell me anything right?" He asked concerned
I gave a tight smile immediately covering it up "I'm fine, you go focus on your wife's after care, i said laughing

"Bhabhi"
"What bhabhi, you go I'll prepare the coffee" and he left and then i sent it to their room

"Soon everybody started coming, dadisa , mom , Rahul and Rehaan." I never looked at Rehaan

Everyone started doing breakfast, i was worried Tara would get scolded.

"Where is Tara nakul and Nitya, go check on them" said dadisa i nodded and went towards the room

"Nakul yaar how will such big pleats go in my stomach" exclaimed a panicking Tara
" Yaar Tara i don't know how to do it atleast I'm trying "
" What is going on over here?!" I said laughing at the scene.
"Bhabhi ,I'm so sorry bhabhi I'm coming i just don't have practice of this"
" Look bhabhi came what will she think of me"muttered Tara
"Bhabhi pls help her with the saree"
" You could've called me earlier"
"I told her but she wouldn't listen see"
"Nakul you please go, Tara give me the saree I'll drape it"
I draped the saree around her and made her sit and got her ready perfectly.
" Thankyou bhabhi, and sorry"
" It's fine just rush outside now"
"Oh wait wait! You guys there a mark on you neck cover it up first" i said laughing "nakul I'm gonna kill you"
She covered and we left.

Tara entered and took blessings and she sat on the table. I was shook dadisa might scold her instead

" Did u sleep well beta?"
"Ji dadisa" "please start with your breakfast"
I just stood there not making contact with anybody. Suddenly nitya came running" bhabi please fix my hair i am getting late please please"

" Why are you late Nitya,did she not wake you up?" Dadisa ask

"O dadisa Rahul came to wake me up and you know he cannot do anything correct"

"What guys stop looking at me like this only bhabhi can get her up with ease, so i had to take another route, in just poured a glass of water and her and she was up" he said proudly

Everyone just kept silent looked at him as If he had gone mad

I took the comb and started her her while she had her breakfast.

"Thankyou bhabhi, without you idk what would I do" soon everyone got up and i came with 3 tiffin boxes i haded to Nitya and Rahul " don't you dare eat anything else I want it complete okay!?"

"Yes mi lady"

"Nakul take this and complete it I'm telling you don't let work make you forget lunch.Okay"! He gave a huge smile and with that everyone left and Rehan went towards his room.
