Devi Avantika

°°Chapter 15- Our Culture?°°

°°Authors POV °°

Rukmini,satyabhama and Suman are standing a little far from the door of Avantika's room.... Mainly because they don't want to disturb the conversation between their husband and his new wife......

Soon they heard the door opening with a thud sound..... And krishn came out holding Avantika's hands in his.....there is a beautiful smile on his face......

"priyas.... You all must be hungry right? Lets go now"

Krishn said while looking at his other three wife's who are standing there and looking at him like they saw a ghost......

More like they are surprised how can the girl who looked scared from the slightest touch is letting a men hold her hand with a clam face.....

The one who are the most shocked are satyabhama and Suman...... Satyabhama still remember the time when Avantika Flinched just from a slight touch.... And suman.... Well she knows her jiji.... Atlest she knows her enough to understand how much her jiji is uncomfortable with everything.... So this situation really made their eyes widen a little....

The three lady's quickly adjusted themselves and nodded their head as a sign of approving krishn's words.......

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The room was small compared to other dining rooms..... But still it looks beautiful.... Decorated with divas everywhere and there are already seats on the ground with a stool in front of it to have meals....
.
They all sit on the seats they feel like to sit on.....

Krishn siting on the middle.... Satyabhama and rukmini on his both sides... But Suman and Avantika are still standing there.....

Avantika as usual have a blank face and suman have a confused look on her face....

"whats wrong why aren't you both sitting?"

Satyabhama asked looking at the two young girls in front of her....

"jiji..... Are we all going to eat... Together?"

Suman said in a nervous tone as she glanced at krishn from the side of her eyes........

"what do you mean by that Suman? Of course we're going to eat together dear"

Satyabhama said with a confused face as she didn't understood what suman was trying to say...

"uff satya... Your really dumb you know"

Rukmini said as she understood what suman was trying to say

"what did i do again? Like seriously! what?"

Satyabhama said looking at her jiji and her nath with a 'i cant understand what your trying to tell me' look....

"arya... Now you make you wife's eat together with you.... I cant do that every time you bring a new wife..... Well satyabhama was an exception but.... This time you do it"

Rukmini said not facing her arya.... She will not do that explanation this time....no way she will..... Shes tired from explaining everything to 16099 women's already (16098 excluding suman and Avantika... And the other one is devi jambvanti... Well satyabhama is an exception)

Krishn sighed and stood up from his seat.... He walked towards suman and Avantika... And said in a clam voice...

"Avantika.. Suman... You both are my wife's now... Wife means a men's other half and thats why you will eat with me only......not after im done eating! Do you understand?"

"but.... Thats not how it is.... Our culture... Our rules-"

Suman didn't finished her words when krishn again said but this time his voice sounded strict....

"suman how do you know that all this is our culture ? Our Rules?.....

Suman if disrespecting your husband or your wife is our culture then that is wrong!! As i said your life partner is your other half..... How can you love only yourself... Respect only yourself and disrespect and hate your other half? In one word thats a sin suman...."

"you and Avantika and all of my wives are my other half.... Im incomplete without you all.... soo before any of those useless rules and regulations of society come to your mind again just remember if you disrespect yourself.. Think low of yourself... And not love yourself... You will do it to me.... All the hate you put yourself into will be mine... Because im your other half after all"

As krishn said those words... Suman felt tears dropping from her eyes.... Well what he said was not only about eating food with him... Or following the rules a 'wife should follow'..........

Well Suman also hate herself to core.... She also feels disgusted by herself too.... Its just her bubbly personality make sure to hide those facts......

Well is there a single women in all those 16100 women who are not hurting?

But maybe after hearing his words she will hate herself a little less then before... Give herself a chance to live again.... Because she's able to understand his words completely.... Right.... He is her husband... He is their husband... Their other half.....

Krishn was quick enough to take his crying wife in Krishn was quick enough to take his crying wife in his arms.... His hug was soft and comforting....he was creasing her head softly while whispering smoothing words in her ears...

He knows each one of his wife's are hurt....and its up to him to heal all of them....its up to him to make them live a life of happiness...suman was just silently crying in her husband's arms.......

Yes she was hurt.... She was also hurting... She didn't even understand that until she heard his words.... She didn't even understand how she was hating herself too... Just like her jiji....

But she was maybe just strong enough to have the will to live again.....

Satyabhama and rukmini have already stood up from their seat.... They are just watching the crying girl in their husband's embrace.... They're feeling their eyes getting teary.....they are indeed sad for what suman has gone through but they are also happy cause they know this cry will help suman live the life she wants... This crying is worth it......

And Avantika who was standing just beside suman looked at the girl..... She is feeling bad for her... She is such an young and lively soul... She doesn't deserve all that... Well no one does...

But her mind was full of thoughts.... Her mind was full of her husband's words....

They ate their dinner after some minutes...After suman calmed down....

Avantika sat beside suman by herself.... Maybe she was trying to make suman understand that she forgive her for what she have done....

And suman was quick to understand too.... She was again clingy to Avantika like always....

They ate their dinner with a warm atmosphere... Rukmini scolding satyabhama... Suman and krishn laughing at satyabhama's pouting..... And Avantika silently eating her dinner.... But she also looked at the people in front of her from time to time watching their drama....

Krishn steal glances at his beloved too.... He had a smile on his face....

"soon shiya....soon...."
He thought to himself..... As he continue to finish his dinner.....

After dinner everyone goes to their own room.... Even though suman literally begged to stay with Avantika... Avantika just shut the door in front of suman and her husband.. As both of them stood outside with a pout on their face..... Satyabhama and rukmini just giggled after seeing their pouting face.....
