"Arjun, see I'm busy. I've a meeting. Can you please take your wife to the school?" Arjun's ex wife swetha asks him over phone.
"But.." Arjun gets worried as he doesn't know what would be Ahana's reaction to that.
"Arjun, try to understand.."
"Ok" He disconnects the call.
Half an hour later...
Taarini comes inside the room. She softly smiles at him and goes to the washroom.
Arjun contemplates his conversation with swetha.
Taarini moves out of the washroom after getting fresh. She walks towards the bed.
He looks at her and clears his throat.
"Taarini"
"Ji"
"There is a meeting in Ahana's school day after tomorrow. I think we should go there." Arjun tells her
"Ji" Taarini nods her head.
Arjun was perplexed as he expected taarini to at least show some hesitation. But she agreed in no time.
Taarini's phone got a notification. She takes the phone from the side table and opens the message. Her sister sent a message regarding her fiancé along with a cute pic.
Arjun frowns at his wife. She is having a soft smile on her lips.
He sighs and lies down on the bed.
Continuous notifications disturbed his mind. Anger kept raising inside him. He tried to calm himself down. Insecurity stirred up his rage.
"Put your damn phone aside and sleep for god sake" Arjun's burst out opening his eyes.
Taarini flinches but composes herself. She puts the phone aside and turns off the light.
She controls her tears and lies down on the bed.
Arjun looks at her side. She is turned to other side.
He covers her with duvet and then closes his eyes.
Morning
Arjun opens his eyes hearing sound from the washroom. He immediately gets up from the bed and walks towards the washroom.
"Tara" He knocks the door and then opens it.
Taarini wipes her wet face with a towel. She looks at him through the mirror.
"Are you ok?" Arjun asks her in concern
"Ji" She nods her head and moves out of the washroom.
Arjun trails behind her. He remembers how he raised his voice last night and felt bad.
"Tara, I.. I was not in a good mood last night..I'm sorry"
She stops for a moment and then turns back to whisper
"It's alright "
Taarini moves out of the room while Arjun sighs.
************
Next day
Taarini gets ready and goes to Ahana's school. Arjun told her that he would join her there.
On reaching school, she calls Arjun. He tells her that he is on the way.
The school staffs invites her inside.
