Priya and Ram had been married for 2 years Their relationship had its ups and downs, like any other, but from few days, the downs were appearing more frequent. One fine evening, a disagreement over something small brust into a heated argument.
I can't believe you're making such a big deal out of this, Ram! Priya shouted, her eyes brimmed with tears he was behaving like a jerk now a days she felt.
Well, it's not just about this one thing, baby It's everything! You never listen to me Priya
! Ram retorted, his frustration was evident in his eyes he didnt even turned soft looking at her crying vulnerable state, ego over powered after a long time between them.
She felt uneasy, words were stuck her throat ached due to pressure due to crying and screaming she almost choked.
But he didn't even cared for a while.
Feeling hurt and unappreciated, Priya decided she had enough of her husbands behaviour its been regular now a days to have fight and every time she has to say sorry as she is aware of his ego. She knew she need space she said in shivering yet low voice "I'm going to Pappa's House. May be being some time apart , we need space Mr. Kapoor it will be good for us"
What Mr. Kapoor? Means she is hell angry with me he thought and looked at her with corner of his eyes she left to changing room and came back with some stuff in her hand.
Ram watched as Priya packed a small bag while wiping tears dripping down her eyes just as she finished packing, taking the hand bag she left. His heart ached as he saw her leaving, but his ego didn't let him stop her.
He just looked at her retreating figure vanishing from the door of Kapoor Mansion.
Priya arrived at Sharma House, where her Mom welcomed her with open arms.
What's wrong, Priya? Shipra asked with concerned face.
I just need some space, Maa. Ram and I had a fight, and I can't stay there right now," Priya explained.
Shipra nodded understandingly. You can stay here as long as you need beta Papa abhi ajayeinge.
Back at home, Ram sat in silence, her voice echoed in his ears WE NEED SPACE, now
regretting the harsh words he had spoken while ago, she was hurt it was evident.
The emptiness of the house without Priya was unbearable, without her he is nothing it was almost evening when he realise the time he has skipped lunch, evening snack too he lost his appetite. He knew he had to make things right. Determined to win his wife back, he decided to go to Sharma House and apologize to his Dear wife this time he won't let her stay hurt for longer but looking at time he decided to go in morning.
The following morning, Ram was late as urgent work came up so he had to rush to office.
Later he arrived at Sharma House around 5 in evening with a bouquet of Priya's favorite white lilies and a box of her favorite chocolates ferro roscher, he thought this will melt her anger.
He rang the bell in desperation.
Shipra opened the door, surprised to see him at this hour.
"Mr. Ram, what are you doing here?" she asked.
"I need to see Priya. I need to make things right," he said with guilt. Please Maa.....
Shipra hesitated with the thought of feelings of her lovely daughter but she thought its between couple it needs to resolve soon, prolonged fights turn things bitter so eventually she let him in.
Ram found Priya sitting in the living room, looking lost. He approached her silently with baby steps, his heart racing.
Priya, he began, his voice soft, I'm sorry for everything. I was wrong, and I shouldn't have spoken to you that way baby. Please Priya once look at me baby I am sorry he said.
Priya looked up, her eyes filled with
sadness and anger. Mr. Kapoor, it's not just about what you said last night. It's about how you've been treating me in last few months. They hardly shared any love moments not even a quick hug or kiss they have been distant since month.
Ram knelt beside her, taking her hands in his. I know Priya and I'm sorry. I promise I'll do things better. Please, come back home he said pecking her knuckles.
Priya could see the sincerity in his eyes. She wanted to believe him trust him again but the hurt was evident and still fresh.
Shipra, sensing the tension, suggested they all have dinner together.
During dinner, Ram continued to make
amends, sharing memories of happier times they had and expressing his love for Priya in various heartfelt ways trying to judge her expressions but all vent in vain she was least intrested paying no heed. While her heart felt happy He even recite her favorite poetry, much to the amusement and delight of Sharma family.
As the night approached near, Shipra could see that Ram was genuinely trying to mend things. So she decided to help them out
a bit more as mother cant see her children sad and apart. Ram, why don't you stay here tonight? It's late, and if you stay we would be happy and lightly whispered to him also you both need to talk things.
Priya was surprised by the suggestion, but she didn't object seeing every ones presence there. Ram nodded in yes and he was grateful to his mother in law for the opportunity to spend more time with his wife.
At night, as they settled into priyas room, the air was filled with a mixture of tension and unspoken emotions it was wierdly heavy.
Ram took a deep breath and looked at
Priya who was sitting on bed reading book but not changed a page since last 10 min.
He leaned and peeped in saying, I'm really sorry, Priya. He held her by shoulder you know baby I love you so
much, and I don't want to lose you he whispered with genuine affection and softened voice.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she listened to her husband. She dont know what to say.
Ram, I know Priya you are angry on me but please don't ignore me love it's stabbing me. I Can't stay away from you I m nothing without you
She kept the book and turned to him with teary eyes whispering
Ram, I love you too.
She slide into his hug.
He wrapped his arms securing her holding her close she looked up and said,
But we need to work on ourselves Ram. We can't keep hurting each other like this again and again
Ram nodded. Agree, and I promise to be more patient and understanding.
Priya smiled through her tears. Okay, let's try to rebuild together saying she went into his hug again.
They embraced eachother the warmth of their love refreshing the connection that had been stretched.
As they lay down, Ram held Priya
close, whispering sweet apologies and promises of lovely future while pestering small yet wet pecks and kisses tracing path from her cheeks to neck.
Their love for eachother is unexplainable and they shared a night of deep, passionate lovemaking, strengthening their bond.
The next morning, they woke up in heavenly cage of each other's arms, feeling rejuvenated with the sense of hope and commitment towards eachother .
They thanked shipra for being there to help them have their time and bid bye to everyone returning to their love nest.
From that day onwards both Priya and Ram were making regular efforts to be better together and appreciate each others love more. Love between them grew stronger with time.
