I CAN'T FORGET YOU ✅

36. All is well..

Author's pov

It's been 1 month since Raghav's discharge from hospital. Today the doctor is gonna open the plaster from his fractured leg.

This 1 month was both bliss and nightmare for Sia.
Bliss because once again she was with her love, with no misunderstandings between them. It was like the past one year had not happened at all in their lives.
But seeing him in pain was hell of a task for her. The man she has seen so confidant and independent, was dependent on her for a mere thing like drinking water.
Not that she was complaining, he was her life, and she could do anything for him, but it was him, who was getting depressed by laying on bed all day long doing nothing, and Sia doing all his chores.

Somehow, Sia used to convince him always that it was their love which has bound them together though so many obstacles have come in their way. And once it was Raghav who took care of her when she was not in her senses and now it's her turn to show her love. And that, it's nothing in front of , what he had done for her. And after saying this she would always cry, but Raghav being Raghav would cheer her up with some of his stupid jokes or a peck or two on her lips.

"Doctor, he will not feel any pain right? It would be okay na? He will be able to walk properly na?" Sia was continuously rambling while doctor was cutting Raghav's splint.

"Calm down Mrs. Jindal, Mr. Jindal is alright.... it will take some time for him to walk without any support. Till then he has to use crutches." The doctor said.

"Sia, you have been thinking too much..." Raghav said to Sia.

After one hour, they both were ready to go home. Raghav with one hand was holding crutches and his other hand was around sia's shoulder for support.

They both went back to sia's maternal home. Since Raghav's accident, they both are living there only.

Raghav's pov

"Raghav, how are you feeling now son?" Dad asked me as I sat on sofa.

"Much better dad." I answered.

"Here...." Mom came with tea and snacks.

"Thank you mom."

"Uhh....dad mom...I was thinking, that now we should go back to our home...." Sia said.

"This is your home Sia....what are you saying?" Mom asked.

"Mom...she is trying to say...that...we both want...I mean...we both...Uhm.....how to say this...." I tried to say but words were not helping me.

"Shilpa, they both want to go back to their own house. Right Raghav - Sia?" Dad said or should I say read through our mind.

We both nodded our head.

"But beta, you are just getting better. How would Sia take care of you all alone....she might need my help....and you both...." Mom was saying but dad interrupted her.
"Shilpa...let them be, they both are mature and old enough to take care of each other. Right Sia?" Dad said the last line looking at us.

And again, we just managed to nod our heads in acceptance.

Sia's pov

Raghav and me are on good terms now. There's been a little bit of awkwardness between us, but that's okay. We will make through it, right?

Day after Tomorrow is his birthday, and I want to make it special for him.
These months of loneliness, fights, sadness....have taken a toll on our lives, and I want to clear all this.

I want to start afresh with him.

"Sia? What are you thinking?" Raghav's voice broke my trance.

"Nothing....uh...you...want something?" I asked him, as I continued making dinner.

"No...just wanted to be with you...." Raghav said and back hugged me, resting his head on my right shoulder.

He was talking to me In his own world, oblivious to the fact, what his hot breath was doing to me. He kept on saying one thing or other, and his husky voice was making butterflies flutter in my stomach.

Oh god! Even after 2 years of our marriage, he can make me feel like this........
He has such a control over you Sia.

"Sia...." He whispered in my ear.

"Hmm??"

"Dal is burning...." he said, and my eyes opened, which were closed till now, thanks to my darling husband.

"Oh shit!!" I turned off the burner, and switched the exhaust on to get rid of the burnt smell and smoke from kitchen.

"My food....I was preparing your favourite sambhar..." I whined.

"You were making sambhar for me??" He asked surprised.

"Yeah...But now...it's all burnt..." I frowned and pouted still looking at the burnt food.

"It's okay Sia, we will make it some other day, now it's already getting late. We will order something for today, Okay?" He said and flicked my nose with his finger.

"Hmm....."

He ordered from my favourite restaurant.

Dinner was a silent affair with he saying something occasionally, and I was lost in his eyes, as usually.

After dinner, we changed into nightwear, and sleep consumed us.
