Married But...

Chapter 26

Anand's POV

Under the shower, I pulled my hair in frustration.

This is really frustrating! I don't understand how the hell is she managing to stay so normally? I know. I know that I keep hurting her again and again but I don't do that intentionally. And I'm stupid enough to realize it just after hurting her but not before.

Moreover, she is an emotional person. She is sensitive that's why even little things hurt her. Or maybe those are not little things for her.

But she should also try to understand me right?

Yeah right! You keep hiding your past from her right from starting and you expect her to understand you? I scolded myself.

I have to do something. I can't take this anymore! How could she ignore me so well? As if I was just invisible to her.

I slapped my head immediately after remembering that I too have done this, to her. Then is this a revenge. No... No... There is no reason for it. Then.... why is she doing this? For holding her on that day? But she understood that that was unintentional. For apologizing? Hmm... Maybe. Because that's when she looked hurt.

I sighed wrapped the towel around my lower body. Water drops rolling down my back from my wet hair.

What should I do now? Standing in the bathroom, I kept thinking about what I can do to make her talk.

God! She is making me crazy!

Apologies are clearly not going to work and the most difficult task is making her listen to me. She never listens to me, she always does what she wants to. So, talking softly and apologizing is not going to work. Should I threaten her? Or should I blackmail her? If I say her that "hey Anu you know what? If you don't stop this ignore Anand game I'm going to bang my head to the wall." Will she then talk to me? I laughed at my own stupid ideas.

Seriously Anand? Think something better! Rubbing my face with my hand I thought I will do anything to make her talk to me.

Before stepping out of the bathroom, I decided to talk to her after breakfast but as soon as I stepped out when I saw her, I did the exact opposite.

I walked in her direction and stood in front of her resting my hands on my hip and biting my lower lip to hide my nervousness. When she noticed my presence she looked up at my face. Instantly her eyes widened. She gasped when her eyes caught my bare upper body. Now that was a bit uncomfortable because I'm not the type of guy who likes being shirtless or show off their muscles.

I bit my lip again to stop my smile that was trying to make its way. Just when her gaze shifted to the floor I spoke.

"Stop this ignoring game now," I said calmly.

"It was you who started it" she spoke.

She spoke after a week. It felt Soo good to hear her voice. Her voice worked like a pain killer! Somehow that stupid heart in my chest didn't ache. My brain was at ease.

I sighed in relief as my body got relaxed.

But I decided not to be a gentleman today. If I have to make her listen to me, I have only one way. Maybe my idea might be crazy but I want to do it anyway.

"And I stopped it. When I realized it was hurting you" I said running my hand through my wet hair just to make her believe that I was angry.

"And I will also stop. When. I realize. It's hurting. Yo-" she said.
