I didn't like Navneet sitting beside Rashi . It's just a small thing but it's disturbing me .
I assuringly placed my palm on Rashi's to make her a bit comfortable who was distrssed from the moment navneet sat beside her .
Her hand was small and so soft . She nodded and took her hand away from me .
I have had seen , in middle class families , newly married couples , eating with entangled hands , under the table , in front of family . So this is something unexpected .
' IGNORED ' 😕☹️
Next Sunday afternoon I was walking in garden , talking to someone on call , about some business stuff .
As I ended the call " So how's business " ? Asked Navneet standing in front of me
" It's ....It's ..Good " I said with a plain face .
Then he talked about some random stuff , I had just listened most of them , then when I was about to leave , our shoulders collided and his cell phone fall down .
I said " Sorry" bending down to pick up his cell .
I was about to gave it back to him when my eyes fall on his Mobile's screen with RASHI .
I looked at it properly now , it was a WhatsApp chat inbox of Rashi with him .

He took his phone away from my hand saying " I appreciate your effort of getting married to Rashi "
"There's on EFFORTS required in marring someone like RASHI " I corrected him .
'Though leaving her may be ' This I kept to myself , as I was in no mood to have any useless arguments with him .
" Yeah. " He said with short smile .
" How's your marriage life by the way " ? He asked further.
I looked at him expression less , thinking what to say .
" I..I.. mean .... How's you people getting along , since it didn't went in an exact normal way "
I just released a sigh to it , putting my palms in the side pockets of trouser & mouthed " perfect " Though I know it's not yet .
"You Know .... .." " It's going to be 4 months in a couple of days " " But , I don't think Rashi got adjusted to this family , to YOU yet " He said taking seat on a swing chair .

" Say clearly " I said turning to him
"Nothing , you will end up getting mad at me " He said shrugging his shoulders .
" What do you wants to say " ? " Speak" I stated again .
" Look , everyone knows that , its been more than half year mine and Rashi's wedding was fixed " "We have had chatted via texts , calls " " She was ready to get married to ME" " She liked ME " " But instead she got married to YOU , that too within a short span of time " " Obviously she knew nothing about you before wedding "
His every word was pinching me , don't know why .
"So..." ? I questioned him .
" So she agreed to your proposal for her family's reputation ONLY " He added peeling off an orange .
"No.. umm...Our relationship is...is nice , it's good " I tried to convince myself more than him .
" Aahann ...If that's so , then yesterday night , why she took her hand back at dinning table " ? He asked shocking me .
" Isn't it obvious for newly married couples to have dinner with hand in hand " "Time span of 4 MONTHS and you can't touch even PALM of your own WIFE "
His every word pierced through my heart . I fisted my hand , " She is just taking her time & I respect that " I said mire to myself , pulling a ringing mobile out of my pocket .
