First of all... Wishing you all a very happy Darling day!!  I am too late I know 😬❤️❤️❤️

Late night, Manasa came to their room from kitchen. On the door step she heard loud beats of drums.
"This RK.. can't he reduce the volume of the TV a bit. Don't even care about the time."
She got inside, "RK.. Turn down the TV volume. Do you know what's the time atleast....."
Manasa found the TV turned off. Even the room was empty.
"RK... Where are you... RK..."
She checked the washroom too, but found it empty. The music was coming from the balcony area. Manasa went there, but again disappointed.
"Where does he disappeared... And this music.. it seems from somewhere near. But I have never seen any instruments in the whole house..."

She looked around. On the closed end of the balcony, she found a sliding door, which left open.
"There was also a room here. I have never seen it before."
Manasa went near. The music was coming from the room. She stepped inside to find a big hall. A corner with a mini theatre, on the left three racks of book, middle portion had some paintings, probably his, also some pottery and clay models. On the right, there was a mini collection of antiques. Finally on the right most corner she saw a wide range of musical instruments and RK in the middle playing drums.

How can someone has these many talents together. Is there anything left as unknown for him. I should admit, he surely is a super star.

Manasa sidelined her thoughts and stepped towards him.

Is he playing music or getting off his anger. 

The rhythm shows his frustration so clearly. And he was absent minded. Not recognized her presence till now.

"RK..." , She touched his shoulders. RK stopped playing and stood up .

RK : "Who asked you to get inside.. ha.. tell me.. who gave you the permission..!! Speak up damn it.!!"

Ma: "RK.. I.. I.. was just looking for you..."

"Come..", he held her hand, this time making sure she wasn't hurt. He made the way out of the room dragging her.
Manu's earring dropped on the floor.
He closed the door after getting out. Manasa looked at him in confusion.

"Look.. this art room is my private place. Don't enter their without my permission. Got it.."

Manasa nodded.
Both of them entered the bedroom. RK settled on his side of the bed.
Manasa was about to take one of the blankets, when RK stopped her.
"You can sleep on bed. You are looking at the size of bed, it's big enough to accommodate two more people other than us. Provided, if you don't cross the line in sleep. "

Ma: "What me..?? No thanks.. I will adjust on couch."

RK: "Manu, that couch is too small for your height. "

Ma: "it's okay."

RK : "It's not okay. If you woke up with a broken spine , then the world will think RK has broken his wife's spine. So shut up and sleep here, before I tie up you again like last night."

Manu straighten her brows and gently sit on the other side of the bed.
"Don't worry. I am gentleman, Won't do anything wrong. If you still don't believe, keep some pillows in between."

Ma: "That's okay. No need. "

She laid on her side. RK turned off the lights leaving the headlamp on. He turned to the opposite side with closed eyes. Manasa was still nervous and rubbing her hands with open eyes.

"I won't collect tax for shuting your eyes wife. You can sleep with your eyes closed. "

Manasa looked at him, who was not even looking her side.

How come he knows that I don't even close my eyes.

Manasa covered herself with the blanket and closed her eyes.
Suddenly she opened her eyes remembering something. "RK.. you never said, you are multitalented. Actor, musician, artisant , dancer, painter etc etc...all in one  "

"There is so much more to know about me Mrs.wife. "

", Yeah...as you said.. puzzle . But let me tell you something. I love to solve puzzles. They are too way intresting."

RK opened his eyes, but neither replied or turned back.

"Good night RK", she turned to the opposite side.
He too closed his eyes. Gradually sleep took over them.

.

Early in the morning, Manasa stirred in sleep as the morning rays hit her. She smiled and stretched her hands. She soon felt a weight on her waist. Opening her eyes, she found a manly hand encircled over her waist.
Manasa startled and sat up, taking out the hand from her.

The movement disturbed RK. "What happened Mrs... Do you saw any scary dream... Am I the one who scared you even in your dreams.."
He was still sleepy, eyes closed.

M: "RK wake up. You know.. your hand was over me. "

RK: "So what. "

M: "What..!! Means.. you don't find any problem in that. You said that four people can sleep comfortably on this bed. Now what happened. I know...all men are same."

RK finally opened his eyes.
"Stop it Manu. Why are starting your fight even before I am awake. God.... Why didn't you tell before marriage that you have more interest in bed fighting than bed coffee."

He woke up and left to fresh up. Manasa sat on the bed clutching on the pillow with a cute pout on face .
