I watched her look at me in confusion.
I might have apologised earlier for my ignorance towards her, but I haven't apologised about her health yet.
This afternoon, Dhara told me how she didn't eat much in those days while waiting for my call, which shot her blood pressure down and her anemia extended.
It was my fault and the fact that she isn't even treating me harshly is hurting me too much.
She loved me so much! I love her soo much too. But I was wrong.
"It's okay Kartik. I have already forgiven you. Every marriage has problems and this was ours, and now we have sorted it. It's fine now." She sighed before sitting down on the bed. She was about to sleep when I stopped her again.
"No it is not. Your health got affected because of me. I can't let it slip. Why aren't you punishing me or shouting at me at all?" I asked her desperately. Because I was desperate for something to get my wrongs right.
"What will I get by that? I don't want to see you in pain." And those hurts hit me hard. Because that's exactly what I gave her. Pain.
"You and me are forever, Kartik. You made a mistake and then you made efforts to make it correct. And I have seen it with my eyes. You are still making the effort. Which is more than enough for me.
Everyone makes mistakes. We are all humans after all. Plus what will I get by holding grudges against my own husband apart from pain to both of us?" She explained it so nicely. My perfect cherry.
I sighed and went to sit next to her.
These days, I have been sleeping in the guest room while my wife was sleeping in our room.
"How did I get so lucky to have you as my wife?" I asked her and she just smiled. "You know what, no matter if I did something or not, but you, my love, deserved the queen treatment forever. Because you are a queen." I touched my forehead with hers and even though she hesitated a bit, she gave in at last.
I smiled as my hands were on her cheeks. She was so soft and gorgeous, the same as when we were dating. I realised my wife hasn't changed at all. It was me all along.
"I love you Anushka. So, so much!" I confessed and she looked up at me. Of course we have said these words to each other before, but I think they have more meaning now.
"I love you more Kartik." Just like that, she hugged me. And I swear I felt like the happiest man on earth in that moment.
"You are too soft on this idiot, bhabhi." Dhara, who was standing near the doorframe sighed. When did she enter the room?
"What can I say now dragon, my wife is better than you." And with that, she flipped me off and rolled her eyes. Stupid dragon!
