Forever Entwined [ Slow Updates ]

chapter 29 : expired passport

Devika's pov :

I was standing in the wardrobe, looking through the rack of night dresses after scolding my husband for destroying my lenses although I'm thankful that he did it because I would have stubbornly worn them tomorrow again.

I remember the time when there was one of my cousin's wedding and I decided to wear lenses. I was 16 years old so the time goes back to my teenage days. At that time when I wore lenses , everyone praised me so much but later I felt pain in my eyes and my mother never allowed me to wear it again. This is the second time I wore it and thanks to my husband he had already made me remove it.

I do have slight pain now but the change in my appearance today is making me less bothered about this pain.

After all that has happened in the past , I wanted a change in myself , in my appearance and somehow I felt it with a new colour of my eyes.

“Jaan, how much time do you need?” I heard his voice from outside the door. I swear to god whenever he calls me jaan I feel like a precious gem.

Every endearment from his mouth is like a sweet voice to my ears. “Coming” I replied back and quickly got changed into a black night dress.

I opened the door and went outside. He was waiting for me , sitting on the couch and using his phone.

He has already changed his clothes into a black t-shirt and gray sweatpants. He noticed me and stood up coming towards me.

I smiled too,looking straight into his eyes. “Do you feel fresh now?” He asked, bringing me closer to him by keeping his right hand on my waist and left one tucking the hair strands behind my ears.

I nodded without speaking anything and he again questioned me , “did you feel any cold today?” He must be referring to the night before when I had all the Rajputs on my tail to cure my sneezing.

It does sound pleasing to know that one's family could love you to this extent. They are angels in the form of human beings. I wish to always have their back and always be there for each one of them whenever needed.

“No, thanks to all the traditional beverages I had yesterday” I scrunched up my nose and he smiled in response.

“We should sleep.You must be tired after all these rituals and back to back functions” he suggested

I agreed too because I am really tired. He held my hand and took me to our bed. I noticed the sheets were changed. There were no petals. My husband is really good at doing even simple household chores.

I know the type of men who feel ashamed to even take a glass of water by themselves. But being with him , in these three months I have noticed and learned many things about him.

I laid on the right side of the bed and he was on the left side. He switched off the lights and adjusted the blanket over both of us.

We both stayed still under the blanket. He never fails to bring me closer even when we are sitting, won't he pull me towards him?

A question lingered in my mind and as if on cue , I felt shifting beside me. I looked towards his side and he was sliding his body in my direction under the blanket.

He suddenly pulled me over him and kept on looking at me. I gulped hard. I was almost over him. My face inches away from his.

“ansh” a whisper left my parted lips. His eyes traveled down to my lips. “what”

Please say something, you are giving me a heart attack.

I didn't say anything and he was still admiring me.
