Mishti :)

My sleep got disturbed due to the sunlight coming from the huge window. I didn't realize when I slept in Abir's arms last night, we were on the balcony.. But now I was on the bed and I looked at my side, Abir was sleeping peacefully. He has kept a pillow between us. I slept on the saree only. It's 6:30 in the morning, I always have the habit of waking up early. Everyday I wake up earlier than this, but yesterday was hectic, so I became late today ..

I went to the bathroom, after taking a warm shower I felt good. My hair has become messy, so I did a hair wash. It took me an hour, I wrapped a towel around my wet hair and wore a red saree.

I didn't understand the concept of having two floors in one bedroom and building the bathroom on the upper floor.. I came back to our bedroom, Abir was still sleeping peacefully and in the same position. I chose to not wear any jewellery for now, I would wear it when I will have to leave the room . I decided to wake him up. Thankfully he was wearing a tee shirt, his bare chest is my biggest distraction..

"Abir, wake up! " I stood near the bed and called him, "Abir.. " I shook his shoulder, he groaned in annoyance and flipped his position. Now he was sleeping on his stomach, his biceps bulged out as he hugged the pillow , I chose to not get distracted .. Already a lot of drama happened yesterday, I wanted the day to start on a good note.. I bent down and shook him to wake him up . He threw the pillow and sat down, his hair was totally messy.. He looked at me with wandering eyes..

"How did you end up in my room? " He asked me, I rolled my eyes.. I pulled out the towel from my hair and sprinkled the water on his face. "I hope you remember that we got married yesterday, " I whispered while drying my hair with the towel. I didn't get any response, so I looked down at him. His eyes were stuck on me, he was just blinking his eyes.. I stood there without doing anything, "Good morning! " He just wished me and went to the washroom.. I became clueless, because what happened to him suddenly..

I sat in front of the mirror and wore a diamond necklace and a pair of earrings. My rashes have gone and I didn't want any more arguments today. So I chose to wear some accessories and who doesn't want to look good especially when she's the bride. If my skin was not sensitive, I would have worn a dozen necklaces last night, huh! I wore red bangles, Abir came downstairs, he was wearing a red kurta.. He was rolling up his sleeves, the sunlight was falling on him and he was looking marvelous.

I stepped aside, and he started combing his hair. He hasn't buttoned up his kurta yet , I didn't know what's the better view. His face or his chest, I was confused where to look at. He again set his sleeves in front of the mirror , "Aren't you going to button up your kurta? " It just slipped out of my lips, he raised his eyebrows. "I mean, whatever .. umm.. Nothing.. " I shuttered, why would others see what I should see only. He took a step forward and I stepped back hurriedly.

My back touched the metal of the drawer, "See, I am not possessive or anything, it just slipped out of my mouth, " I muttered, he didn't leave any space between us. "When did I say that you are being possessive for me, princess? It's you who is saying.. " He whispered, I got an adrenaline rush. I tried to move from the side but he kept his both hands on the drawer surface and now I was caged. "Ufff.... " He whispered and stared at me.. I was feeling something inside me. Even breathing felt like a task.

His intense eyes were warming up my cheeks, "Stop looking at me like that, " I muttered, he leaned down. I gasped , I wasn't even looking at him and it's affecting me so much. "My wife is dressed up in a red saree, her curves are just too perfect and when she's trying to set her hair, her belly is coming to my vision, when she's trying to look away, I feel the nervousness on her face, how can I not look at her when she's the most beautiful woman in my life? "

That's the best compliment I have heard about me, I was supposed to be happy but I got conscious, not in a bad way tho! He bent down till my ears, my hands automatically raised up, I placed it on his chest.. "Can I kiss you? " He asked me, his voice was so gentle and soft, but it felt intimidating and difficult to resist. "Hmm.. " It just slipped out of my tongue, he placed a kiss on my earlobe , his beard was brushing against my cheek..

My toes curled down when he placed a kiss on my cheek and moved his lips on my jawline softly.. I clutched the fabric of his shirt, he pushed his fingers to the length of my hair and on the other hand he cupped my cheek.. I felt his lips on my forehead, it's a kiss of assurance. His lips moved down along the length of my nose and he placed another kiss on the tip of my nose. My eyes were closed, my one hand moved around his neck and the other was clutching his kurta in a tight fist. The physical intimacy was giving me butterflies all over my body.

I felt his hot breath on my lips, he decreased the distance between us. Anxiety raised in me and just when he was going to kiss me, I leaned back. Both of us opened our eyes, I couldn't just kiss him. I don't know why I back out, but I just couldn't proceed further. "I am sorry, " I whispered, he was just staring at me, his grip around me loosened. I again made both of us awkward, I was about to move aside, but he held my elbow.

I gave him a query look, he took the sindoor and put it on my parting line. Oh! I had forgotten it completely. "You should not be sorry for something where it's not your fault. I respect your comfort zone and I respect your boundaries. I will wait, I can wait, " he stated with a smile and moved back.. I smiled at him, everyday he just proves what a gentleman he is!!

We both moved out of the room together, there's total silence in the mansion. I was scared as hell because of the last night incident. Everyone was taking their morning tea while sitting in the hall like nothing happened last night. So will we just move forward without talking about anything that happened last night? Weird. Is this now it feels when you live in a joint family?

"I thought you both would wake up late today! " Ryle cracked a laugh, everyone's attention shifted to us. This time not only Abir, but I also glared at him. He gulped and started looking at the roof like asking God to call him as soon as possible. I became uncomfortable due to all those looks I was getting from everyone. The king called me by taking my name, we both went to him and took blessings..

One of the house workers came with two bags, grandpa gestured for me to sit beside him. "First of all I am sorry for whatever happened last night. I don't expect a guest to behave properly, but I was expecting my own family to behave in a way. Be it Abir or Ishani or Seema! " He stated , seema is Abir's chachi. I looked at Abir, he didn't react to anything, his facial expression was just normal. "I am sorry, we could not welcome you perfectly, but I hope Yuvaan will welcome you in a grand way when you reach New York.. " He said, I didn't know what to say, because somewhere I was guilty.

He gave me a saree and a necklace set. I touched his feet again to take his blessings, "It's your grandmother's necklace and you are my first grand daughter in law, so I am giving it to you as a gift! " He placed his hand on my head, I smiled. Abir sat beside me, maa went to the kitchen and came with a big plate. "Ishani has made kheer for everyone, especially for both of you. Taste it, " grandpa gestured, aunty forwarded one bowl to me.. I thanked her and took it, when she forwarded the bowl to Abir he denied.

Maa was already sad and it made her more upset. "Will you just take the kheer or you want to see the worst of me? " I literally threatened him in a low tone, his eyes widened and he stared at me in disbelief. I gestured for him to take the kheer, without saying anything he took it. I didn't want maa to feel insulted in front of everyone. "It's tasty, " I said after taking one spoon, she smiled at me.. Abir didn't say anything and just kept eating. He was giving me a surprised look in between, which I was ignoring of course. I didn't know I would ever threaten the prince of Rajasthan that too when I was sitting beside the King.

The worker came and took our empty bowls, "After one hour you will leave for New York, so go and spend some time with your father, " he suggested, I didn't know we would leave so early. But it's Abir, he didn't want to stay here because of the toxicity. Maa took the saree and necklace from me, I excused myself and went outside.. I sighed and took a deep breath. I felt like I just came out of the cage. The environment was so toxic, damn!

My happiness reached no bounds, I ran to my house. The door was open, papa came out of the kitchen. I was smiling, I ran and hugged him. He stumbled over his feet, but hugged me back.. And then I burst into crying, all emotions just came out in tears. "I will miss you papa! " I was crying badly, "I will be there in fifteen days, don't cry , " he patted my back.. I broke our hugs, and all my friends were there.. We did a group hug, I didn't want to cry because it would make them more emotional. But the tears were not stopping..

We broke our hug, Abir also joined us.. He was quite upset about everything. Papa has made several dishes for us, Abir and I sat on the dining table along with papa and my friends.. After breakfast we all clicked a picture, it's time for vidai.. I took my mummy and papa's one photo with myself.. "Bhabi, we should go! I have placed all your belongings in the car, " Adyansh came and informed us.. I hugged papa, "Just think that you are going on a trip with your friend, it's just a matter of fifteen days, I will be there for you, " papa said and kissed my forehead..

We went outside while holding each other, the thought of leaving the country without him and starting a new life with someone else was scaring me to the core even though I trust Abir, it's not easy for me.. We reached the car, I hugged him again.. "Take care and don't forget to take your medicines if I forget to inform you.. Don't keep your phone in silent mode, and keep calling me. I will miss you, " I bit my lips, trying to control my tears.. Papa made me sit in the car, Abir held my hand and pulled me to his embrace..

The driver started the engine, I burst into crying again. Abir was trying his best to console me, the car started moving. I looked at papa, he was not crying and the smile he had on his lips was not real.. I waved my hand at him, and all my friends were crying as well.. And soon they vanished from my sight. I placed my head on Abir's shoulder, I wasn't able to imagine anything. Till tomorrow I was relaxed because papa was near me, but today I was scared to death.

We reached the private airport, they have their own private jet. I have never travelled on a private jet , it's new for me. But I didn't feel excited about anything because I was upset. In the whole ride I just slept, it's a long ride so mom provided another saree to me and told me to take a bath.. We both took a bath and changed our clothes. I was wearing a transparent pink saree, I didn't wear any heavy necklace, just my mangalsutra. I love wearing bangles so I wore them..

I was trying very hard to not get nervous or anxious, but I failed. I could not even pretend to smile, all were worried for me.. When we reached New York city, it was already night there. While going to the Rajvansh house, I was staring outside. Abir was holding my hand all the time, I was drowned in the sea of my own thoughts. So many things have happened in my life, and now a little change in my life scares me. The car stopped in front of the big mansion.. Abir came and opened the door for me.. Everything was dark there, I was not able to see anything properly.

I placed my hand on his palm and got out of the car.. All the lights were turned on, firecrackers started bursting all around us. I got startled, WELCOME HOME.. IT'S written on the sky by the firecrackers, I was stunned. A broad smile formed on my lips.. I took a step forward, I waited there till the firecrackers ended. I looked at Abir, he raised his eyebrows, "This is so beautiful, " I whispered, he smiled and pulled me to his embrace.

It's huge black mansion, they had a big lawn and a swimming pool too. In the garden area there's a swing and place for sitting arrangements. They have an underground garage as well , I was thinking how many cars and bikes they have, that they had to make an underground garage for parking. We both went ahead, everyone had reached home before us.. "Welcome home Mishti! " Dad said, I smiled at him. Maa did our arti, Abir was still upset with her..

My grihpravesh happened in Indian style, I pushed the rice field bowl and then walked into the house after putting my feet on the red water. We entered the hall, it's way too big. I was expecting them to live in such a huge place, but the beauty and luxury was beyond my imagination. "From today , it's your own house. You will not face any toxicity, there's no members like our family in India, so nobody will judge you. Never feel shy to do anything, this house didn't have any daughter. Now it's home and you are our daughter... " Dad said, I touched his feet and took his blessings..

"Enough of all this, we can talk tomorrow right.. I mean I am tired, " Abir said, both Ryle and Adyansh came in front of us with a teasing smile. It made me conscious, "Bhai, bhabi is tired as well.. I hope you will let her sleep tonight! " Ryle taunted, I looked down.. I totally forgot that it's our first night together.. Abir placed his arm around me, goosebumps erected all over my body. I felt his fingers on my waist, "She's my wife, let me decide what to do. You both better go to your rooms and sleep, otherwise I might not let you sleep, " Abir taunted them back in the same tone.

"Let them go, stop being shameless! " Maa scolded both of them.. Abir's phone started ringing, he could not talk due to the network issue so he went outside. Maa held my hand and we made our way to his room. We went to the first floor, and she opened the door for me.. The room was intimidating, I was welcomed by the dark fragrance.. Scented candles were lightened up all around the room. It's decorated with rose flower petals as well..

"You both have better understanding, so I don't think I need to tell you anything. I trust my son, he will keep your comfort over everything.. " Maa said, I smiled nervously.. I don't know what we will both do tonight.. She wished me a good night and left.. I went inside, I could feel butterflies in my tummy. I was thinking about what to talk about, how to start a conversation , what will I say when he comes.. I was nervous as hell..

I went and stood near the big window and opened the glass. The fresh air from outside entered the room, I felt good. I took a deep breath.. My phone started ringing, it's from Sanaya.. I picked her call.. That's when Abir came inside, I saw his reflection on the glass, but I didn't turn back. He locked the door from inside, I put the phone on my ear.

Hello Sanaya..

You reached there safely?

Yes.. I did..

I felt Abir's presence just behind me.. He took my phone and kept it on speaker and placed it on the window sill.. He placed his both hands on the window, caging me between his hands he leaned towards me.. I could feel his hot breath on my neck..

Can we talk tomorrow?

Why are you sounding so nervous? Did his bua-

My eyes widened when she started the topic of his bua, but Sid interpreted her in the middle. I sighed..

Hey baby! I have put your favorite chocolate in your purse. Take it if you feel low..

"Baby? " Abir questioned, they just pamper me too much, so they call me anything.. I rolled my eyes, but I loved how he was jealous just because Sid called me baby..

Yes baby! Thank you..

To make him more jealous I called him 'baby', I heard him groaning..

"What did you call him? " He asked me, I turned around while holding my phone. He was looking hot yet cute when he was jealous..

"Upps! Did your husband hear what I said? "

Sid teased Abir, "You better don't call her baby again! " Abir warned him, his sharp jawline came to my vision. I looked down his throat, his first two buttons were opened. I was so upset that I did not notice how hot he was looking. And as now he has caged me between him and the wall, and the way he was leaning on me and getting jealous, I found it super hot..

"But you need to tell it to my baby.. If she will deny, then I won't call her baby! '

I was literally enjoying it, Abir's jawline tightened. He looked at the phone screen in annoyance. " She will.. Say no to him mishti! " Abir said to me, it's more like a command.. I rolled my tongue inside my mouth..

"No baby! You can call me whatever you want! "

"See, my baby is calling me baby. And she doesn't even have any problems.. You are just third wheeling between us! "

Sid was trying very hard to control his laugh and I could feel it.. Abir snatched the phone away from me and cut the call.. I took it as a chance and escaped quickly.. But he held my hand , I gulped. I was just having fun, but now it felt like I woke the devil inside him.. He started decreasing the distance , step by step, his fingers were firmly wrapped around my palm.. As he was taking steps towards me to decrease the gap, I kept taking steps back to increase the gap..

"What were you calling him? " He asked me in a very low intimidating tone, my toes curled down.. His eyes filled with possessiveness, I felt my heart around my throat.. "Are you jealous? " I asked him, sometimes I love to play with the fire.. "With every possible right I am jealous and I will not like it if someone calls you baby! You belong to me and only I can call you baby! Did you get that? " He whispered...

"I don't belong to anyone! " I said with a smiling face, his eyes darkened. He took another step forward and there's no space behind me.. I ended up falling on the bed, as he was holding my hand, he fell along with me. He felt beside me, I couldn't get up because his hand was placed around my tummy and he was strong enough to keep me pressed against the bed. He hovered over me, his face an inch away from me..

The wind rushed into the room and it flickered half of the candles' fire making the room darker.. I gulped and looked at Abir, "Let me go, " I whispered, he slowly lifted my saree and placed his hand on my bare belly.. My breath hitched, "You were saying something! " He whispered, his fingers were tracing over my skin.. I clutched the fabric of his shirt, "I... I uh! " I fumbled, he leaned forward, I tilted my head.. My face brushed against his shoulder, the soft material of his white shirt and his dark perfume was making my mind insane..

He brushed his beard against my cheek, his effect was doing something to me that words can't describe.. I was in some other world, nervousness and anxiety has already left me.. I was drowning towards him .. He placed his one leg on my leg and caged me more. I gulped.. "So whom do you belong to, Mrs Rajvansh? " He asked me in a low whisper and bit my earlobe.. I raised my upper body and shifted close to him..
My hand wrapped around his waist and the other was clutching his hair..

He pushed his face into my neck and placed a kiss, "Abir.. " I moaned delightfully , the new found sensation was making my mind wild.. I pressed my upper body more into him, he nibbled and sucked the skin off my neck, his hand was tracing over my belly. It moved to my waist and he started roaming his fingers on my back.... His lips were marking love bites over my neck, "Whom do you belong to baby? " He asked me again and bit hard on my skin, his fingers opened the dori of my blouse.. I inhaled deeply and pressed my face on his shoulder..

He trailed down his finger down my spinal cord, I pushed my face into his neck.. He wrapped his both arms around me and flipped our position.. My blouse has become loose, he again flipped our position, now I was under him again.. His phone started ringing again, realization hit us hard. He detached his lips from my neck, but I didn't leave him.. "I am sorry, " he whispered , he was about to detach himself completely, but I held him firmly in my arms and kissed his neck..

I inhaled deeply, taking his perfume into my airpipe.. It's hard to resist him, "I belong to you baby! " I whispered and bit his neck skin, he wrapped his arm around me again and hugged me.. Now it's not a comforting hug, but it's more like a craving. His lips were exploring my neck while his palms were roaming all over my back.. I wasn't ready for anything, but at this moment I needed him and I didn't want him to leave..

His touch was setting my body on fire, he moved a little up and kissed my jawline.. We brushed our cheeks together, I love it when his beard brushes against my cheek.. I kissed his cheek, he kissed mine, we both looked at each other while our lips were a few centimetres away. Half of his weight was over me, but I didn't feel anything. I was pressed under him and I was loving it .. My heart was craving for more, my soul was craving for more.. I moved my eyes from his eyes to his lips, my lips were trembling..

"Kiss me, Abir! " I gave him consent, maybe it was too early, but it's the heat of the moment. And I knew I wouldn't regret anything that I would do with him tonight.. His eyes sparkled, he moved his lips closer. My head was placed over a pillow, I was waiting patiently..

When his lips brushed against my lips, I felt a shiver run down my spine. I felt something new, something sensational and something so electric , so passionate that it totally shook me.. He took my lower lip between his lips, his warm lips drenched my lower lip as he sucked it gently. I felt the fire rising in me.. The way he sucked my lips, it's more like he was worshipping my lips.

But the moment was spoiled by the knock on the door.. We didn't even kiss for five seconds, damn it.. Abir detached himself quickly, I stood up as well.. I wrapped the pallu of my saree around my back as he went to open the door.. Bua and Maa were standing outside, I moved towards the door after seeing their stressed facial expressions..

"Abir, our Italy's factory got into fire, I don't know if it's an accident or done by someone. Your chacha is admitted into the hospital, his half body is burnt. His condition is serious and so many employees were admitted into the hospital, " she informed him in one breath, it's horrifying to hear.. Abir took out his phone and rushed downstairs. His bua went behind him, I stood there silently.. I wasn't in a state to go outside, maa was leaving but then stopped..

"You want to come down stairs? " She asked me, I bit my lips. She placed my hair on my shoulder, maybe she saw the hickey.. "You can come with me, " she asked me, I shook my head in a no.. "It's okay, I am here.. " I said, she didn't force me and left.. All those moments were running in my mind, his touch, his kiss everything was still fresh on my skin.. I looked at myself in the mirror, the sindoor was glowing along with my face. The lipstick was smudged a little, he had just kissed my lower lip and our moment got spoiled..

I wasn't blaming anyone, but I felt empty. I took a wiper and cleaned my lipstick, but I could not erase his intense touch from it.. A few red marks were over my neck, but there's a deeper red one near my collarbone .. Someone has met into an accident in this family and here I was blushing .. I shook my head in disbelief and went to the balcony.. Everyone was there in the garden..

Just as I reached the balcony, I saw both Abir and Adyansh get into a car and leave.. I couldn't even see him, I only saw his back.. And it's the moment when I forgot everything that we shared together. My happiness turned into sadness in a second.. I stared at the gate from where his car had just passed.. I didn't know where he went, but if it's Italy he would have come here to meet me at least. But it's a sensitive case, so I would not mind if he left for Italy without informing me.

I went back to my room, that's when maa came to me with a sad smile.. She looked at the room, I looked at the messed up bed and again it reminded me of the moment we had just shared.. "Abir left for Italy, " she informed me in a low tone, I just nodded.. I was upset, but I didn't want to show it. Nothing is more important than someone's life and it's about his chacha. "You should sleep, it's too late, " she cupped my cheek and left..

I stood there for a whole two minutes, I was just blaming the situation. Now the room started haunting me , in his absence I felt strange. His perfume was still fresh in the room and it reminded me of him.. I went to lock the door, but his bua came inside. She was crying, but after seeing me she wiped her tears and gave me an evil smile..

"Aww sweetheart, did your first night just get spoiled? " She taunted, I remained quiet. I was feeling extremely angry, "He didn't even come to meet you once before leaving.. Tch tch tch.. Just know that this is your standard in his life.. " She taunted , "Be habitual of it. Because you are definitely on his priority list, but at the lowest bottom.. Good night! " She left, I went and shut the door and locked it.. Tears started dropping from my eyes, he could have at least come and meet me once.

What did I deserve to see all these things? Can't God see me happy for even a moment? I sat on a chair near the window, his bua's words were haunting me. My phone started ringing, it's on the window.. I looked at the screen, it's from Abir. I didn't pick up the call... He called me twice, thrice and many more times.. But I didn't.. His call was about to end, but I picked it up finally.

Mishti..

I remained quiet, I was shedding tears and if I would say anything, he would understand..

I am sorry, I had to leave like this.. Are you listening to me?

I sobbed silently, and palmed my mouth.. I didn't want to look immature, I wasn't angry, but I was upset. He could have come to meet me once..

Are you crying? Mishti listen to me.. I am sorry.. Please don't cry

I remained silent..

I will come back soon, it's important that's why I had to leave and I didn't go to you because I couldn't have left if I saw your face. You know you are my strength and weakness both..

Please don't cry..

I cut the call and switched it off. He should have come to me for once, even for a minute. He knows how anxious I was and there's no one here who would comfort me. Still he chose to leave without even informing.

Of course, I am at the lowest bottom on his priority list..
