RISHAB'S POV
When we enter the dinning, we heard Ashi and Bhabhisa talking in kitchen
You can come to me if you need someone to talk. Even if you want to complain about Rishab.... Bhabhisa said with mischief in her eyes.
Bhabhisa he is so nice. He even married me, a widow to save me. He not even for once shouted at me or beat me after marriage. How can I complain about him? when I know I don't deserve him.
I frowned listening her. I was going towards her when Bhaisa held my hand nodded no.
Bhabhisa cupped her face and said Why don't you deserve him? That accident was not your mistake it was destiny. You both were meant to meet each other like this. Ashi you cannot think like that. Tell me after leaving tribe did Rishab ever made you feel like he is not happy or you don't deserve him?
No. Never. She said moving her head to both sides. But. I don't think he is happy with me. Ashi said with hesitancy
And why you think like that? Bhabhisa asked her
Amm....he had not for once... I....he....never came near me as a husband does. She said looking down and crying. If he was happy with me, he would have accepted me as his wife. Bhabhisa I don't want to lose him. What if he decided to marry other women? I .... no....Bhabhisa please will you tell me how to make him happy. I don't want to lose him. Here women are very different I want to be like you and other women's here so that he accepts me as his wife. I always make him embarrass even during lunch I did not knew I was not supposed to kneel. I am stupid and dumb, that's why he has not accepted me yet. Will you tell me rules that i am accepted to follow here.
Bhabhisa hugged her. Don't cry talk to him he must have his reasons. Ashi he had just lost his family give him time. And i will teach you everything don't worry.
Bhaisa cleared his throat to gain their attention. Seeing us Ashi immediately stepped back. Sorry she said looking down and trembling with fear.
Serve the food I will come in five minutes. I said and left kitchen to wash my face and hide my tears. Bhaisa was right. I totally forgot that in our tribe if husband does not consummate the marriage it means he rejected the bride. Thankfully Ashi had Bhabhisa to share this otherwise she would not have understood my point. Its best for Ashi if we stay here. I thought.
After dinner I told Bhaisa that we will stay here but I will contribute in household expenses. He hugged me and said welcome home.
