The Story Of Nisha

Chapter 32 - Facing Armit

It was good to have Aunt Aadhya around. She was in charge of the cooking and offered to do most household chores which meant I could relax. In the flipside, having her around meant I had to act different around Siddharth. We had to play a 'perfect' couple, when we are far from perfect. 

As for Keerthi's search for a husband, I could say things were going well. Siddharth asked around his colleagues at work, and a day later one of them showed interest. His name is Mukul.Siddharth says hes a good person, and the only fault about him is the amount of days he takes off.  He was kind, funny and in the same field as Keerthi. According to what Siddharth has said, the match seems okay. However, we haven't told Keerthi the good news yet. Aunt Aadhya wants us to meet her in person and show a picture of Mukul. 

Beep  Beep Beep Beep Beep 

I slam my alarm, making it go off.

Time for work

I have been working, having not taken maternity leave yet. Aunt Aadhya knows about the fact that I am working, however,  she is surprisingly fine with it.

Slipping on my nude jacket and green long dress, I get out my makeup pallet to do my makeup. 

While I am applying Kajal to my eyes,  I can feel Siddharth lurking behind me. 

"That's my beautiful wife" He whispers hugging me from behind

"Siddharth!  Stop! You ruined my kajal!" I complain pushing him away

"Well.... sorry. My bad " He laughs slumping on the bed

"What do you want? Aren't you supposed to be at work? " I question reapplying my makeup

"Well. .. I decided to take a day off" He says

"What? " I spit

"Well...wifey.  since Mukul dosent work today I thought I could bringa him along to meet Keerthi" Siddharth smiles 

"Ahhhh.... one thing though. Do you think Keerthi would be fine with you bringing in Mukul all of a sudden "I question

"That's exactly what I thought, but I sent her a picture of him, and she agreed to meeting him. Suprising aye " He says

"Well...I'm off to work now" I say picking up my bag

"Bye babe" He says getting up

Without a response I leave the room.

"Nisha! " He yells 

"What?" I yell

Siddharth is really starting to piss me off

" I don't know about you but I have work to go to. Furthermore I'm already late, so stop your stupid behaviour " I instruct in anger 

"I just wanted a kiss " He sighs looking down 

He reminded me like a toddler who had their favorite game tooKen off them  - sad and disappointed 

"Siddharth I don't have time-" I begin

"Of course you don't Nisha. You never have time. You see... I'm trying to make our relationship work but your-" He starts 

"Stop the blame game. The damage has already been done. Stop pretending like nothing has happened" I state with anger boiling in my veins 

Siddharth loops at me for a second, sensing my rage. Then dumps him self back on the bed, placing his hands on his face 

He was disapointed, of course he'd be. He has a wife who dosent love him, but who's fault is that?
