Mute love

prologue

" So you are trying to say if you are fucked up with your work then it's my fault?? "

Aditya sighed, it was first time his wife was getting so hyper.

He took some step towards her to close the gap and caressed her face " Please try to understand, at least let me explain"

" I don't need your explanation, you can't understand what I need Adi!! " she jerked off his hands and pushed him a little.

" I know , I know you need me beside you and trust me I too want the same but" He paused to stare at her teary eyes. It's rare for him to see her sad. She is always happy and chirpy woman, sometimes he doubt how come a fun loving person fall for a boring man like him.
And today seeing her dejection made him extremely sad.

"But it's not possible for me to stay with you everytime " He tried to hold her hands but she jerked his touch.
" Please Aditya!! I don't want to hear any excuses , I am just tired of your behavior, you changed a lot " Her heavy voice made his heart ache. He noticed her throat working with a hard swallow.

"Baby try to understand " He pleaded.
" Why do you always have only one thing to say' try to understand' " She said highlighting last three words.

"Tell me that what should I understand?? That your work is more important than me?? And why is it supposed to me who understand you every time, why can't you understand me?? " She started crying.
" I understand baby, but.. "
"No buts!! Just look at this room, what do you see here?? "
He scanned the room, it was completely decorated with blue and silver balloons, flowers and there was a cake on a small table.
One of the wall was full of pictures of little girl. And written in big letters Happy birthday Adhya.
" What do you see Aditya?? " She repeated making him look at her.
" decorations!! " He replied wryly making her chuckle.
"Decorations?? That's what you see!! You can see decoration,not my efforts, I am so sick of your behavior!! "
He didn't try to say anything because he wanted to listen. He wanted her to let it out on him. It was his fault after all. She was tired of understanding him. In addition her hormones were on peak.
" I am tired!! Really tired of you, it was her birthday, you promised me to come on time, but it's 1:30 in the midnight when you showed me your face. If you can't think about me, at least think about your daughter she is just four years old , I can understand but she can't, she can't understand that her dadda doesn't prioritise her, his work is more important than his family. "
That's not true at all,he loves his wife and daughter more than anything in this world,but she was just sad and saying whatever she wants, it was her hormones as she was five months pregnant and he understands her situation. That's the reason he was trying to be calm her.
Her tears were painful for him to watch. He can't see her like this because he loves her. But sometimes we end up hurting our loved ones.
" I am really sorry baby, you had to do this all alone,but I promise this won't happen again"

She rolled her eyes before wiping tears.

"where is Adhya, call her, let's cut the cake " This made her more angry.

" Wow!! Like how stupid I was to believe that you remember she is not home yet because we had planned that you will pick her up from my mom's place because I couldn't do this all to surprise her in her presence. " She laughed in sarcasm.
" What??? "

" Yes Mister she is still there, because you forget about your daughter, you didn't replied any of my texts or calls. You are just..." She couldn't complete her sentence as a sting of pain hit her belly.
" Ahhhh!!!! " She said touching her baby bump!! Her whimper made him panick.

" Soumy, what happened!! " His voice was filled with concerns for his wife.
Holding her shoulder he made her sit on the couch.
" Baby, don't be hyper, don't panick please, it's not good for you and baby, just relax!! " He settle down beside her and took her hand in his.
