Arnav gritted his teeth and clutched his jaw. Today she has brought him to the edge where he never wanted to come. In last two months he had controlled a lot and today he is a changed man. A man who gained lots of patience in him, a man who thinks before he acts. But her one word broke everything.

Holding by her wrist he started dragging her through the stairs. No matter how much she cried in pain, but it seemed like he did not care.

Finally they reached their flat and he shouted on her to open the door.

She got so nervous she started fumbling. In one go he pulled her towards him and slid his hand inside her bag and pulled out the key.

Opening the door he twirled her around and shout the door behind. He ganged his fist in frustration and closed his eyes to calm down his agitated nerves. "I am his mistress, his contracted wife"'it was not much of his help. He opened his eyes and turned around to see his traumatized wife standing right in front of him clutching her lower abdomen.

"WHY" he barked loud.

She flinched seeing his old self, furious will be an understatement to describe his state.

"WHY KHUSHI? WHY? WHY YOU HAVE TO UTTER THAT WORD?"

He narrowed his eyes and continued'"Mistress?" he said in a low voice. "DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THAT WORD?" he said it loud.

He advanced towards her and held her tightly from her shoulder. She flinched in pain "aah!" she cried out.

"WHY THE F*CK DID YOU SAY THAT KHUSHI? WHY DAMN IT?" his pitch rose with every single word.

"Because I am the one", she said in a low, hurtful voice.

"SHUT UP", he barked gripping her more digging his fingers into her skin.

"What wrong did I say?" she added more fuel. "you have used me like a puppet, did not you? when you wanted me you touched me, when you wanted me you threw me out of this house, when you wanted to hug me you hugged me, when you wanted to yell at me you yelled at me. Do you have any idea how I felt?"

Arnav was hell shocked and dumb folded. He never know she have felt like this these days, so was his love forceful? Did he force her all the time? Does she hate him now?

His heart swelled at the very thought "hate". He stood staring at her blankly, trying to read his mind and heart.

But why he always felt that it was mutual? Why he always felt she loved to be touched by him? What was that when she hit her climax, why she never opposed him when he tried to be physical with her? Why it never looked like as if it was forced and one sided?

His series of thoughts broke with her next question.

"Why? Why did you mention about our marriage in front of out siders, when life span is of only 4 months? Why you have to link our name together when there is no future to this contract marriage? Why? She sat on the floor crying bitterly'."why?"'.sobs.

Arnav just couldnot figure out what she was talking about? Was it the effect of alcohol that she is talking non-sense, or is it real?

"What? 4 months?" Arnav was confused to the hell. "what the hell are you talking? Why will I marry you for 4 months? And what contract marriage are you talking about?".

"Shaadi jo aapne mere saath kiye hai".

(the marriage which you have done with me)

"Khushi! Tum kya bol rahi ho?" I think you need rest.
