ACCEPTING 'US'

27.

Sudha felt completely shocked by his sudden move. She thought he was hungry and here he was kissing her hungrily making her go all weak and vulnerable for his touch more.

" Now I feel full " he said after moving his lips away from hers. She blushed immensely looking at her husband's naughty behaviour.

" I will serve you food no matter what " with that said she got up swiftly and ran into the kitchen giggling. Shyam sighed heavily and waited for his wife to come back.

" Shyama when did you arrive beta? " Asked Devamma while entering the house. She came back from work soon so that she could pick the vegetables and go to the market. To her surprise her son was already at home.

" Just now ma. Sudha went to bring me food " he said with a slight smile.

" Maaji you came. Wait I will get you tea " sudha said when she saw Devamma. She gave the plate of food to her husband and disappeared in the kitchen again.

" Here maaji " sudha handed her the tea cup. Shyam started eating food while observing his wife who was in the kitchen.

He then went to the backyard and washed his hands. He went directly to the garden and started picking the veggies in the basket. He was engrossed in his work and didn't observe Devamma coming there. She too started helping her son.

" How did it go shyama? " She asked while engrossed in work. She was waiting eagerly to meet him and know if everything went well or not. She doesn't want her son to get disappointed after knowing that the money is not enough to pay the interest. If it was less too she wanted him to convince that it's alright and they can pay it later. She just wanted to assure that her son is at peace and stress free.

" It was well and surprisingly the money was enough to clear the interest. Don't worry ma I even handed the money to the zamindar sahab and signed a bond that I cleared the interest amount " he said assuring.

" Really? I didn't see you there? When did you come shyama? " Devamma asked surprised. She was all day worried about her son and even informed sudha that he will not be at the field. She was very much relieved knowing the fact that her son was able to achieve what he wished for. He explained everything to her and she smiled widely. After collecting shyam insisted on going to the market but Devamma didn't allow him as he needed enough rest. Although Shyam was stubborn at the beginning gave up later  and stayed home.

" What's my cutie wife doing? " Shyam asked entering the kitchen where sudha was cleaning the vessels. She looked at him with a smile and continued her work. She can feel him coming near her and now she could feel his breath on her neck. He wrapped his arms around her waist from the backside and she stiffened for a moment. She wanted to finish her work soon but her husband kept her disturbed by giving kisses on her neck. He was trying to move her away from the kitchen counter but she was adamant. When she finally finished her work she washed her hands and wrapped her hands around his. Now shyam lifted her off the ground and carried her bridal style to their room.

" Hmm so I assume that the selling of yield went well " she said when he laid her in bed.

" Yes it was extremely good but how do you know? " He asked coming near her.

" Isn't it obvious that your mood is more romantic not grumpy " she said and giggled. Shyam's eyes widened at the comment his wife made at him. He didn't think his wife would ever call him grumpy at the least.

" What did you just call me? " He said looking at her with fake anger.

" Oh so now my husband is not only grumpy but deaf too " she said laughing and he stood there dumbfounded.
