I was chillin at home today. I didn't have to go to the office today.
I missed having days off and being home alone. Dad went to the office and mom & Shyama had gone to get some groceries.
I was watching a movie when the doorbell rang and I went to get it.
There was a random guy there.
"Can I help you?" I asked.
"Is Shyama home?" He asked.
Only one person you can be.
"Rohan?" I questioned and he nodded.

"She's not home but come in. My wife will be here in a bit," I said.
Why did I say that?
He came in and just sat down when the girls came home. Mom went into the kitchen and Shyama came to where we were.
"ROHAN!" She said excited and hugged the life out of him.
"Oh my God! How are you?" She asked.
"I'm good. What about you?" He asked.
"Good. I can't believe you are here," she said.
"You are staying in this house and no arguments about it! I'm going to have the guest room ready," she said.
Hey, here's an idea...why not ask the people who's house it is if he can stay?
"I don't want anyone to find me to be a bother," he said.
Good! You can leave now.
"You won't be. Both my in-laws are okay with it," she said.
And I'm not!
"Well if their okay with it," he said.
"Oh my God! Let me show you your room," she said and dragged him.
I followed them because...i don't evenknow why.

"It's nice," he said putting his duffle bag down.
Why didn't I notice that earlier?
"I'm so happy you are staying," she said hugging him again.
"Get some rest. I will make food for you," she said.
Did she forget that she's married?
"I love you," she whispered to him.
Okay, I'm going to kill him!
"I know," he said.
Then why don't you marry her?! You son of a b*tch!
She went to the kitchen and I followed her.
"Hey," I said.
"Hi," she said.
"So you just realizing I'm here?" He asked.
"No, but I'm realizing a hint of jealousy," she said.
I grabbed her arm. I knew it was tight and she was hurting.
"You are married to me so act like it," I said.
"Right back at you," she said and I got mad.
I pushed her into the cabinet.
"OUCH!" She screamed.
That got Rohan to run out to see if she was fine.
I had let go before then.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
She nodded.
Good! You better not speak up.
"Here let me help you," he said.
I got mad and left.
She's my wife! I'm supposed to make her life a living hell so why is this affecting me.
A knock on the door took me out of my thoughts.
"Food is ready," she said.
"Not hungry," I said.
"I know. Mithul is also downstairs," she said and left.
Uuggghhhh!
I went downstairs to see both of him and Rohan behaving like the best of friends.
"Hey," he said.
Rohan left us alone.
"What now?" I asked.
"Uuummm I was wondering if your dad was home," he said.
"Why? So you can have more time off? I doubt your wife is even sick," I said.
"I know it seems like I spend time with her, but it's not a lot," he said.
Is he joking?
Dad came downstairs.
"Hi. I was just wondering if I can take a week off? My wife's health is getting worse," he said.
"Of course," Dad said.
Shyama came back with a drink for him.
"Thanks bhabi," he said and she just smiled.
"Atif will handle your week off," dad said.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
"I know this isn't my place to speak, but Atif deserves some time off as well. Sure, it may not be for me but we all know that he's been working twice as hard," Shyama said.
Didn't I just hurt her a while back? Why won't she stop doing this? I'm not husband material!
"Someone has to run the company and uncle isn't at the age where he can suffer with so much work," Mithul said.
Oh! So you have time off and I don't?
"Then you work from home," she said.
"My wife isn't feeling well," he said almost raising his voice at her.
"I know but you can do some work," she said.
" Why don't you do anything?" He asked.
What the hell has gotten into him?
"I have a job," she said.
"You work from home," he said.
Seriously? What's his problem?
"Both of you chill!" Dad said.
Shyama just left after that. We agreed to Mithul getting a week off.
I went upstairs but she wasn't there. Probably with Rohan, I thought to myself and just went to take a nap.
