HIS POV
I was being too careful these days for Radhika's protection. I did not want to leave her alone or unprotected even for a minute. Since Shaurya told me about Angad's plan to attack Radhika and her family, my heart has never been at peace. I have made myself busy these days, day and night. I allotted men in and out of the jail to keep an eye on Angad's actions. Secondly, I hired my trusted bodyguards near Sarpanch Ji's haveli in casual wear. I could not make it obvious to others and noticeable for the Rao's.
The day Radhika left without informing me was one of my dreadful days. I came back home and did not find her anywhere, that moment scared the hell out of me. I clearly told her not to go anywhere. She should have at least informed me about her plans before leaving. How can she be so careless about that? It raged me to perpetuity when I got to know she left for her home with her brother unprotected. Not once did I get a chance to explain to her.
I had to let guards follow her all these days. After I learnt that she was safe in her home I took a breath of relief. She made my world turn upside down in just a day. I was thoroughly mad at her behaviour of going uninformed. Even if she was angry she should have informed me in some way before leaving the house, especially when I told her not to. I was not even given the chance to explain the reason.
All these days I was tense and preparing for the encounter with Angad. Today I was going to see the outdoor safety.
"Suniye," I heard her. I looked back at her. (Listen)
"Woh Panditji puja ke liye bula rahe hai," she said.
(Panditji is calling us)
I knew I wouldn't be able to control my emotions in front of her hence I avoided looking at her. I was still very angry.
"Hamare paas samay nahi hai." I answered nonchalantly and turned to leave.
(I do not have time,)
"Lekin hume jode me baithna hai." she said.
(But we have to sit in pairs)
"Sit alone like you did from the past few days," I replied and walked away.
I walked out and not once she tried to stop me and that made me realise how far I stretched our fight. I was so engrossed in being angry at her that I forgot to even behave properly. I acted rudely today even when she persuaded me and apologized asking for forgiveness. But I couldn't hold my anger when she did so in the room, hence I left.
And now again she was persuading me with her sweet soft voice and I was melting like wax. But before I could, I replied harshly. Something I should not have done. After all, she's my wife, my love. How long am I going to stay angry?
Standing out in the lawn I looked behind but she was not to be seen. I wondered if I should go back to her and check on her. I'm sure tears would be playing on her cheeks right now. I started to feel guilty for acting this way.
I stepped inside the house to talk to her. All she wanted was to sit with me in the Pooja and I pushed her away purposely. I walked in the verandah and looked around to find her but she could not be seen.
"Daksh, come let's go," I heard her brother.
"Yeah! I was looking for Radhika," I said, trying to find her.
"She must be in the Pooja hall waiting for you." He said.
It clicked to me that he might be right. We headed to the hall and it was precisely big. In the center was the temple and everybody was seated around it. As she said everybody was in pairs.
