*Anusha Pov*

"Hello?" I asked in a sleepy voice and immediately sat up hearing mom's voice.

"Anusha! I need you to be here right now." She demanded and I frowned glancing at the clock.

"Mom! It's just eight and I am still sleeping." I mumbled and let our a yawn.

"I don't care whether it is Sunday or not, but somehow I want to see you within half an hour." Saying that she hung up and I stared at the phone in shock.

Today is the only day I can stay away from him and she wants me to come there and see him? I mean not specifically, but he will be there, right?

Wait! What if he went to his parent's house? With that question in mind, I got ready and reached near my parent's place not within half an hour but definitely within an hour.

I walked inside and went directly near the dining area as the maid suggested to see Mom, Dad, Bhai and Kirthi sitting there with weird expressions.

"What happened?" I asked them frowning and Mom turned to look at me before taking something from the plate before her and forwarded it towards me.

I took a bite of it, frowning and immediately coughed with the weird taste filling my mouth. I moved fast to take the tissue and removed it from my mouth.

"What the hell is that?" I asked before taking a sip of water from the jug and turned to see him leaning on the kitchen wall looking at me.

"From one week he is torturing all of us and mainly me." Mom started, but I continued to stare at him.

Why is he covered in different things like yellow color and then red and his hands are covered with some cloth.

"How?" I asked, not turning away from him.

"He always tries to talk to me not leaving me in peace. I mean, why do I even want to talk to him when I have so many things to do. We never talk much like he tries to talk." She explained and I frowned.

From when did Satvik became talkative because he always talks very little, right? I shook my head and turned to look at Mom.

"That doesn't explain this rubbish." I pointed out and heard him taking a sharp breath in.

"Well, like all things this is also made by him." She explained.

"What?" I asked her with shock covering my features.

"Exactly! He got this weird idea that he will cook breakfast for everyone and this is what happened." Hearing her answer I again glanced at him but he is looking away from us.

"Aunty! What is wrong with it? Before maid's were only using the kitchen and now finally someone from family is using it. Isn't it a good thing?" Kirthi asked Mom and I shook my head.

"I want him out of this place, Anusha." Mom said ignoring Kirthi's remark.

"What can I do? Dad and you only can do something about it. And if this is the reason for me to waste my time from sleeping, then please don't do it again." Saying that I turned around to leave.

"Ansh! Go and get burnol from somewhere. I think my adopted brother got his hand burned." Hearing those words, I stopped in my tracks.

"Adopted brother?" Bhai asked, but something else struck me.

He burned his hands? I closed my eyes tightly and turned to walk towards the first aid kit in the living room before turning back towards them.

"Do something about this." Mom demanded Dad to which he stayed silent while Bhai and Kirthi are arguing about something.

I ignored them and walked near to him while he is still looking away from us, but turned towards me when I reached him.

"Here!" I mumbled forwarding the tube and he lifted his hand to take it, during which the cloth fell down and I let out a gasp.

"Are you mad? Who asked you to even enter the kitchen?" I shouted at him and suddenly everyone went silent.

"It's nothing! First time right, so it happened and maybe second time it will not." He mumbled and calmly took the tube.

"Second time? There will be no second time." I ordered and heard Mom saying, 'Exactly!'

"Why not? If I have to learn it then I need to do it continuously, right?" he asked, shaking his head and turned to walk off.

"Why do you even want to learn it?" I asked him frowning.

"Because you did!" with that answer, he completely walked off while I got rooted to my place.

Somehow I moved not away from the direction he went, but towards it and reached his room to see him struggling to apply the ointment.

"How did you end up even getting burned like that from just preparing breakfast?" I asked, startling him and sat beside him calmly before taking the tube from him.

"I forgot that the vessel is hot and I just turned off the stove. So, I held it with my hands." He explained and I winced.

In silence I applied the cream slowly and he too didn't utter a single word. When it is done, I looked up, meeting his stare.

"Satvik! Why are you even doing this?" I asked him taking a deep breath.

"I am trying to pay for my mistakes." He replied and I shook my head before holding his face.

"Leave it! No matter what I can't go back to that life and I am trying to forget everything. You do it and start your life fresh without repeating the mistakes. That's enough." I said, looking into his eyes.

"I don't think I can ever start it fresh unless it is with you in this lifetime." His words made me drop my hands.

I calmly stood up saying, "Don't enter the kitchen again."

"I will do it again and again until I will prepare something which you will eat without spitting it out." I just walked off after hearing his answer.

I walked towards the dining area to see the maid serving the breakfast she must have prepared in the meantime and I took the vessel containing the breakfast he prepared before walking into the kitchen.

I moved towards the dustbin and tilted to throw it, but stopped in the middle before taking a bite into my mouth. Somehow I finished it and took another bite, but after that I dropped it.

"So, love really makes everything delicious?" I startled and turned to see Kirthi standing near the doorway.

"I don't know what you mean." I mumbled and moved towards her.

"Well, I just like to say I was walking just behind you from the dining table." She said, shrugging and I shook my head before taking a step to walk out but she held my hand.

"Why to hurt each other like this?" she asked and I just stared at her because I really don't have an answer.

After a few moments, I removed her hold and walked near to the dining area. I glanced at Mom and gestured to her that I am leaving.

"By the way where does he go near to six in the evenings?" she asked making me frown.

"He is definitely not going to work as he drives the opposite way." She mumbled, but I just shook my head in negative before walking off.

Where does he go at that time every day? I asked myself and groaned, trying to push his thoughts away from my mind.

"I am just plain stupid." I mumbled, shaking my head.

"Yes, Madam?" the driver asked and I just told him to just follow.

What am I doing? And why? Why did I reach my parents house near to six and waited outside in the cab and now following him like this?

It's been one week since my Mom made the comment about him leaving at six every evening and this one week my mind just travelled too much and finally I took the decision of finding it. But why?

Because I need to know what is going on and with everyone from his friends to my family asking me where does he go making me feel restless and definitely curious.

And if... if this is something which would help me to strengthen my decision against getting together, then I need to know by which I can follow what I planned to do with my life.

I nervously sat which the cab continued to follow him and finally he stopped near a building and I made the cab stop a little away before getting down.

I saw that he just walked inside the building so I paid to the cab and slowly started walking towards the building which is in the corner.

I turned to the corner and immediately stepped back in shock. I opened my mouth and closed it before shaking my head not knowing what to say.

"You could have just asked." He whispered and I slowly nodded, knowing well I should have done that.

"I would have told you and even bring you here if you wanted." He added and I took another step back to leave feeling more than embarrassed that I even took this step in the first place.

"Don't go! Come with me." Saying that he held my hand and turned around to start walking inside the building.

"Satvik! I don't want to come inside. Just let me go." I said, tugging my hand, but he didn't listen to me and continued to walk.

Finally, he rang the bell after climbing two stairs and the door opened by a girl and to top of that she is wearing the sports bra and shorts making me tug my hand from his hold with force.

"I am glad that you are here. This one week you didn't come because of your hand burns. Now, how are they?" she asked, looking at his hands while I took a step back, to which he immediately held my hand again and brought me forward.

"I brought my wife." He said looking at her.

"Ex-wife!" I corrected to which he held my hand tightly.

"That's great!" she said awkwardly and welcomed us inside and he as usual dragged me.

"We were just about to start." Her comment followed by a vision of suddenly twenty people standing before me.

"Wh... what?" I asked no one in particular.

"I am glad that you are interested in doing Yoga. Do you want to register? And do you want a special package like meditation like your hus... I mean Ex-husband?" the girl asked cheerfully.

"No!" I whispered, still feeling the shock and sat on the chair she asked me to which Satvik walked off to somewhere and returned wearing shorts and a normal shirt.

And for the next one hour I saw him doing some simple yoga, but most of the time doing meditation. What is happening here?

I kept quiet, even when he finished and got back into his normal clothes and even after we walked out of the building and started walking towards his car.

However, when he opened the passenger door for me, I turned towards him asking, "What is all this?"

"Get in! I will tell you." He replied and I did as he asked me to.

After a few minutes of driving he stopped near the park and calmly asked, "Do you remember how I behaved after Laksh attacked our company?"

"Angry and rude!" I whispered and he nodded smiling.

"Yeah! I just... from long time my dad never considered me as any important for of the company. It's like I was replaceable and so I started this company. So, when it got threatened all the frustration and anger kind of just started rolling out and I didn't have control of anything." He explained to which I just frowned at him.

"I am not giving excuses for my behavior. After... after I couldn't find you, I lost it completely and got shut down. Somehow I came out of it and I was suggested to take up the classes to control every emotion. And here I come to these classes everyday." He added and I sat in silence not knowing what to say.

"I shouldn't have followed you." I mumbled and turned to sit properly.

"It is my mistake. If we are not separate right now then you would have definitely asked me directly without doing anything like this. So, you need not feel bad." He assured me and I turned to see him already staring at me with a smile.

"Can you drop me near the flat?" I asked after a few minutes of silent with just both of us staring at each other.

He nodded and started driving towards my place. Finally, when he stopped the car, I turned towards him, but didn't have anything to say.

"I am glad that you are fine now." With those words I opened the door and stilled hearing his words.

"I will never be fine without you." I composed myself and got down from the car before walking into the company building after which he drove off.
