AvNeil SS: OF LIPSTICKS AND LOVE MARKS

chapter 2

PART II 

At the police station : 

Neil entered the police station in a jolly good mood. He was in a happy space both professionally and personally.  Especially personally. All thanks to the love of his life.

Still with a smile on his face, he got down from his car, and was walking towards the station when a hawaldaar started staring at him. His eyes wide. He nodded towards the guy and greeted him with a polite " good morning, pandey" but did not get any response. He walked away not thinking much about it.

At the police station entrance he met with another hawaldar, who neither greeted him nor saluted and just stared...nevertheless he wished that guy too but felt something was rather odd.

' why are people gaping like baboons at me' he thought to himself.

And then he heard a little snickering.  Finding their behavior a little erratic,  he simply walked towards his cabin and on the way at his desk said to dd " dd,wo dutta case ki file lekar anadar aao". Dd who was dumbstruck looking at the face of his sirji, couldn't form a coherent word and just nodded. 

Neil settled into his cabin,  and wondered what was wrong with people today? Was his immense happiness so evident on his face? Or didn't he smile that often at office? 

He composed himself and just then dd entered inside his cabin.

Dd handed him the file and said " sirji, wo.. Umm wo... (Mumbling to himself) kaise batao"

Neil looked up from the file and " kya bol rahe ho dd,  kya baat hai?"

"sirji, wo " he pointed towrds neil's lips and then his own lips and then touched his own chin,  looked up and then looked down.

"ye kya kar rahe ho dd??"Neil asked .Clearly Irritated.

not being able to form a proper sentence, dd just opened up his mobile, turned the selfie camera on, and placed the phone in front of neil

as soon as neil saw his face on the screen everything started making sense to him .all the staring ,the snickering and those dumb looks. he took a deep sigh and muttered a single word " avni!"  then  he took out the neatly folded handkerchief from his pocket and wiped up the lipstick marks. moved his hand through his hair and gave the phone back to dd ,murmuring something on the lines of " haa, to ho jata hai, ho jata hai"

dd took his phone and gave his sir an understanding smile. his bhabhi and only his bhabhi was any match for his sirji! she always came up with something or the other to embarrass him. may it be the whole sholay scene at the police station or the prank they played together on him at Coorg. 

he nodded at neil and left the cabin, to let the  poor man be alone with his thoughts. 

neil was completely amazed at his wife. she was mostly such a strong woman, but at times she completely behaved like a child. he couldn't help but smile at her antics. with all the love in his heart he thought to himself ' kya karu me iss ladki ka, thank god me aaj jaldi aaya and 3-4 logo ne hi dekha! think what would have happened if I had enterd the commissioner's office for the meeting looking like that...

parr kuch to karna padega neil!! Think!! ek case ki tarah soch. there are two options. ya to pretend kar ki tu avni se bohot naraz hua hai, fir wo tujhe manayegi and we can have a nice romantic time. 

ya fir prank her back . tell her who is the man of the house. ahhh!! who am I kidding. har koi jaanta hai who is the man of the house , her one look with those doe eyes , and you are done'.

still fighting an internal battle of which option to choose , neil started weighing the pros and cons of each ,when his eyes fell on the magazine on his table and finally a plan was forming in his mind.
