Getting habituated

Chupke se , Teri neendon mein, khwaabon mein khyaalon mein aaunga , kho jaunga , Ek din Tera ho jaunga

~ Uvais

It had been a week since the day Uvais had told Shaista his feelings. Since then he never tried to get close to Shaista. It was as though he wanted Shaista to Fully accept him.

On the other Side Shaista was worried that the Professor she knew did not leave a chance to get close to her was distancing from her . She somehow was feeling sad about it .

She herself wanted time but when Uvais was not getting close to her she was feeling Agitated and Irritated.

Whenever, she got all her hopes up to talk to him , to start conversation, Uvais would end the conversation in simple answers leaving her awkward to continue.

She was unable to understand what she wanted from Uvais .

It was another day , the sun had just rose breaking Shaista's slumber.

She smiled seeing the view in front of her . Her husband was sleeping peacefully as though he had no worries in the world .

She , who never wanted to marry him was thanking God for such a caring Husband.

Even though they talked less he always took care of Shaista's needs .

Whether it was her dressing, breakfast . Whenever she was in problem Uvais had solution for it .

Shaista was asked by her Mother in Law to get ready in a saree she sent. She wanted to introduce Shaista to her friends ( Informal muh dikhayi ) .

It was quite heavy one and Shaista was having problem draping it.

When Uvais saw this he helped Shaista and Shaista was shocked seeing how professionally he draped her saree as though it did was a piece of Paper.

It was quite heavy for Shaista.

He left the room after draping her Saree .
Shaista did minimal makeup and wore the jwellery that would match the saree.

When she was completed she asked one of the worker to inform Uvais that she was ready so he could drop her .

After 5 minutes , she heard a knock on the bedroom door .

" Ji , aaiye " she replied.

Uvais came inside with some paper bags having men's wear.

As soon as he saw Shaista, he left the bags on the bed and came closer to Shaista in just 3 long strides.

Shaista thought he might kiss her but she was wrong , he was just picking his watch from the vanity table.

Shaista felt embarassed and shy about how she thought that he would kiss .

She feeling nervous left the room immediately.
