  She looked at him... "what is that?" Her heart almost hammered against her chest, as if alarming her of something. But  she was least bothered about anything else at the point, besides the physical pain she was going through. She looked in RK's eyes as she couldn't see him sad, or unhappy. He seemed the same RK. Just the same kind of gaze he always keeps for her... 


Madhu's P.O.V

"I want you to be happy" he said pushing a string of my hair behind my ear. I was all ears to what he would come up with. Something better for both of us. Even I don't want him to be sad in any way... but I was curious as to what he would suggest. 

"We will live in the same house, but" he stopped and my brows furrowed as to what was the solution he came up with... "live like strangers..." he completed and I had many questions invading me...live like strangers, how was this possible. But I kept quiet while he looked in my eyes... 

"what do you mean RK?" finally I said to him, with a big frown on my face as I stood up from the bed crossing my arms... he gave a serious look at me "listen Madhu, this is all kind of turbulent situation, and I want you to be comfortable." he said again with the same gaze. How could he maintain that look I wondered. 

"So?" he gave a puzzled look at him. He kept his hand on my shoulder "please Madhu, you just relax, you don't have to worry about how I feel, what I want and all other stuff. I will make sure you're comfortable in your room. So don't take any decision of leaving the house." 

Oh so that was his point, my God...I have been unnecessarily using my brains to find out why he came up with such odd kind of solution, that would be fine, I suppose in my mind. I anyways wouldn't leave the house, how could he believe that. 

The situation for me was definitely not easy. It would take me sometime to forget what all happened. so I gave him a nod in assurance that I won't leave the house and we'll stay under the same roof like strangers. 

"why don't we start from now?" I said...

RK's P.O.V

The moment she said to me I halted, not even a single day I spent without her but now I only suggested her this and I had seriously no clue that she will react so quickly as if she wants to throw me out of the room... I really want to hit myself for this. 

How can I stay away from Madhu, without holding her, talking to her and moreover loving her... 

"hmm, yes we can" I said with all good looking face, but deep inside my heart I wanted to kill the thought. 

"so you take your luggage in the other room" she said straight away without even thinking once... she looked so prompt, without any smile, with such a straight face, I could see a little frown sitting between her eye brows... I don't know if she was angry or happy. 

But I had to listen to her, may be this time because of her terrible situation. I would beat that bastard Aditya, I swear to myself I wouldn't spare him... He's basically ruined the nice times between us. 

"okay, I 'll take my things to the guest room" I said, regretting the one line I said in confidence thinking Madhu will back off, she won't be happy with my solution but no, I was wrong she loved throwing me out of the room. 

I recalled the scar I saw on her neck before, I felt like squeezing that Aditya under my feet. I would definitely kill those hands that touched my Madhu. 

I picked up my luggage and slowly headed out of the room, looking once more turning behind at Madhu who was still sitting on the bed with a book in her hand... gosh what will she do after reading that book.

Writer's P.O.V

RK sauntered from one end of the small kitchen to the other, the door was still closed...he wondered if Madhu was still sleeping. He made a wonderful plan to have breakfast together but then all of a sudden he remembered last night he made a deal... he kept his hand on his head "why did I do that, now she's a stranger" he murmured to himself... he regretted about his words but then he thought to give her some time to recover. 

he quickly went back to his room, but left the door a little ajar to see if the room opposite to his opens soon and he can see his dear wife. 

After sitting on the bed, he waited keeping his hands behind his head but no avail. He made some important phone calls at work as he had to inform Bittu Ji... who was managing the schedule. He wasn't hungry but thought of making some coffee... the moment he got up he saw the door of Madhu's room opened. 

She yawned stepping out of the room, then headed towards the kitchen to grab a glass of water. RK sneakily saw her, just to make sure she looked fine...she must be trying to recover he ponder...

After tying her long hair in a lose bun she sat on the couch with a glass of water and a magazine in her hand... RK felt a little sad as she didn't even once looked at his room. Did she took his advise so seriously. He shook his head in despair...
