"Don't be shy maams, I am not like your sister anymore. I am your wife now" I say as i enter his room with milk tumbler in my hand.
"Mayil..." He drags looking at me helplessly.
"What maams ?" I ask as i sit down close to him making him move away.
"This is all too sudden for me. I have never seen you as anything more than a kid, not even as a sister like I wanted you to believe. This is going to be really tough. You know ? Me seeing you like a wife ? It is difficult" he says, not meeting my eyes.
"Why ? Is it because you don't find me attractive ?" I ask and he keeps quiet.
Well, ive got my answer now.
That is when the happy bubble I am in gets bursted. He has been forced into this marriage, not like me who is dying of happiness.
"I'm sorry" he says.
"See you are a really unique girl. But I just don't see you that way. You are....not my usual type" he says making my heart ache.
"Oh" i say as my heart falls into a pit.
"You sleep on the bed, i will take the floor" he says.
"No no, you take the bed, it is your room. I will go to mine" I say standing up but he holds my hand.
"Are you stupid ? Do you want our parents to think that we are not being husband and wife ?" He scolds, making my heart ache even more to know he wants us to be fake happy in front of others and be like this alone.
"I'll just tell them that I'm not comfortable" I say.
"God you are such a child " he sighs.
"Let us sleep. Just don't, come past this pillow" he says, setting a pillow in the middle of the bed.
I don't say anything as i silently cried myself to sleep. This is really fked up.
Him
I wake up to the sight of Mayil drying her wet hair. Damn, she definitely had a differently structured body like nothing compared to the girls I've been attracted to before.
I shake myself off my thoughts as I look at her again, this time the saree has completely failed to cover her midrib as she raises both her hands to dry her hair making me gulp.
Wow, curves brother curves ! I didn't expect a woman of her size to have such curves. Though her stomach is as chubby as a pillow, her waist has this crazy curve and from behind, it is just simply mouth watering.
I slap myself off of the view as i pretend to sleep before hearing her exit the room.
All the cousins tease me in the dinning table but i show deaf ear to them before going to my office.
Everyone are rather surprised to see me and I ignore all of it before starting work.
But midway my thoughts take over as I wonder what I'm going to do. I am married to her. I am convincing myself that she is not for me but can't believe she is attractive too ?
Anyways it is better to keep my distance while I am confused and not make hasty decisions. She is too young and naive for this.
For the next whole week, wherever I went, Mayil would be there at lunch to correctly to give me the lunch that she no doubt prepared. It wasn't up to the level but seeing that she barely ever cooked, I was impressed to see her cooking for me. Also, i didn't say anything since this would make everyone believe that we are in a happy marriage.
"Happy married life village head" says Jay as we see each other in a tender auction.
I just glare at him and walk away. All of this confusion is because of this duffer !
As usual Mayil comes there to give me lunch during lunch time.
"Vanakko Anni (hello sister in law)" Jay says to her as she arrives.
"Hello brother. Thank you for what you did, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to marry my maama" she says cheerfully, wiping his smirk off while I smile wide as she comes towards me.
"Good job" I say before leading her to the eating space.
Her
"The look on his face hahahahaha ! You did such a good job" maama appreciates me while eating making my smile falter.
"What ?" He asks noticing the change in my mood.
"You didn't say a single word about my cooking but get this excited and happy just to see the look of failure in your enemy's face ? Is that all I am worth for maama ? What do you expect me to do to make you like me ?" I ask with pain making his face look upset and helpless.
I just stand up and leave the place.
He is never going to like me.......
Luv ya'll ❤️
