Sachi's POV
I woke up but my eyes are so heavy maybe because of yesterday's crying but why my body is feeling heavy. I tried to open my eyes. When I opened my eyes, the site in front of me was shocking and pretty. It was Sanjh. We were so close and this was my first time that I saw him this much close to me. He was sleeping peacefully like a kid. I admired him but wait our position and his hot breath are giving me goosebumps on my whole body and I turned red. Our position was not even helping me, his face was close to my neck. I could feel his breath near my neck but my body, what's so heavy? I couldn't see anything because we were covered under duvet.
I tried and successfully peeked inside our duvet. What the flower, he was holding my waist tightly and our legs were tangled. That's the reason why I was unable to turn over another side of bed. Wait bed... how did I get over bed? I remember that I fell asleep in balcony.
Thinking this I tried to turn over to other direction but he simply held me tightly and turned me towards him more. Now his lips and nose is touching my neck. My eyes go wide and my face turned red because of the proximity.
After some time of struggling, I finally escaped from his hold. Thinking all of this I looked at our washroom's mirror and found my cheeks heating up. I did my morning routine and checked the time. Wahh I woke up so early today maybe because of his hold. Thinking this I again blushed.
I shook my head and went downstairs just to find no one. I sighed and went to temple. I always used to go to the temple before marriage. Ever since I got married, I didn't even get time to go to temple and I don't even know anything in Mumbai.
Maa always calls me for aarti and prasad. So I decided to go to our home's temple. I hurriedly went to kitchen and made breakfast. I happily went to temple and found Maa.
"Maa what are you doing here so early today?" I asked. She always comes here but not this early.
"I woke up early today that's why, but why are you here today beta?" Maa smiled and asked.
"I also woke up early today and because of yesterday I wanted some positive vibes that's why I came to temple." I smiled looking down.
Maa just patted my cheeks with love and asked "So do you want to do today's aarti?" I nodded happily.
Today Maa and me did aarti early and left prasad in temple for everyone. Maa said "Let's go to make breakfast together" I just laughed at her excitement and said leaving the temple "Don't worry Maa, I already made breakfast, I came in temple after making breakfast."
Maa suddenly held my hands and said "Thank you so much Sachi" I looked at her confusingly and said "For what Maa?"
"For everything beta, you know you're the best choice for Sanjh. Now I understood why Prakash was saying that Navya is not as good as you for Sanjh. From now on if someone bullies you at our home then just come to me, I will kick their ass off." she said patting my head lovingly.
I was in tears, today another misunderstanding got solved. Maa likes me. I asked wiping off my tears "Maa, do you like me more than Navya?" She shook her head as no and I was about to burst in tears when she said "Why do you think that I just like you, I don't like you, in fact I love you Sachi, you're like my own daughter. It was my fault beta that I couldn't understand you and did so wrong with you. Sometimes elders also get wrong so please forgive me" she said in tears like me.
I just hugged her tightly and said "You didn't do anything wrong Maa, how can I forgive you then?" Maa broke the hug and cupped my cheeks saying "You are my favorite child" I hugged her again and said "I was missing my family so badly but now I got a hug from my Maa, I am feeling so good." Maa smiled and wiped my tears and her also.
Suddenly we heard Samastha's voice "So aunty, she is your favorite ok, understandable but on which no. am I?" she completed pouting and we both laughed on her antiques. "You are also my favorite child, Samastha." Maa said while pulling her cheeks.
"Ok ok aunty. Sachi I have a good news." Samastha said excitedly. I asked "What is it?"
"Randhir is coming today aunty" she said jumping like a kid and continued "I was miss him so badly in these days. Finally Sachi you can meet Randhir." We laughed at her cuteness and Maa said "Yeah I can see that how much you are missing him" She ended with wink and here our Sam is red. I'm still laughing.
"Let's go, it's 7.00, don't you all want some tea?" I said and again we started laughing. "Why are you saying like a room service girl" Samastha said. We went to dining room still laughing and found Navya already sitting there. She greeted everyone except me, so I said "Hey Navya, sorry for yesterday. Yesterday I was not feeling so well, that's why I didn't spend any time downstairs."
She gave me her fake smile and said "Yeah I know that, that's why I also didn't approach you." I smiled to her and said "I will come with tea ok." saying this I went to kitchen. Behind me Sam also came and said "Don't you find Navya weird, she somehow looks different from before."
"Yeah kind of, but I don't even know much about her. I'm meeting her for the first time but still I feel like she hates me." I said making tea and green tea for Sanjh. She nodded and said "Sachi, how are you and Sanjh?" this question made me blush and sad at the same time. I looked down and Samastha continued "He still didn't trust you, right?" I just nodded and she said "Sachi I am telling you, Sanjh never said sorry to anyone and he is an egoistic man. I know him, he will never say sorry to you, but he will show you by his actions ok." I nodded and gave her a cup of tea.
"I will give tea to everyone, you go and give him his tea" Samastha said to me. "Please can you help me once Sam" I said begging her.
"Don't you even try Mrs. Sachi Rajvanshi, only you have to do this, I have my own husband to give him a cup of tea" she said flipping her hairs sassily and started leaving. I shook my head and laughed at her behavior, she is so happy today.
I sighed and went to our room with green tea. I just hoped, he should be in washroom. Hoping this I went inside and found no one in room, I heard sound of water from washroom. I put his green tea on table and went to closet to get his cloths ready. Putting his clothes on bed, I hurriedly left our bedroom.
I came downstairs and set the dining table for everyone. I saw Sanjh coming down for breakfast, everyone was already settled on their places. I didn't want to make any scene today, yesterday was enough for me thinking this I was about to go upstairs when Maa asked me "Where are you going?"
"I need to call Aaruhi, she needs me urgently Maa." saying this I started walking, I didn't even look back. I came to my room and locked the room and sighed. I didn't want to face him not at least right now. I'm embarrassed because of our positions on bed and scared because yesterday he said he will divorce me, I still don't want to give him divorce. So I think now ignoring him is the best thing until his anger gets cool down.
Thinking this I calmed myself down and went to balcony and sat there. After sometime I saw Sanjh's cars were going out. He sat inside one of them and went to office. I sighed and went downstairs. Everyone was busy doing their own stuffs. The whole dining was empty. Looking at that empty table I didn't want to eat alone, I just skipped my breakfast and was about to go to kitchen.
The doorbell rang indicating someone has come. I was about to go to open the door when I saw Samastha running, passing by me saying "I will open it, I will" I laughed at her excitement and took Kush with me and we also went to see who came.
I saw a man who was near to Sanjh's age, looking damn handsome. Suddenly Samastha hugged him tightly and I understood that he is Randhir, Samastha's husband. Looking at him, Kush started to wiggle in my hands and started to call him "Dad".
He smiled looking at me and came towards me taking Kush from my hold. He said "You're Sachi, right?" I nodded with smile. "You're Randhir, right?" He nodded giving smile. He is indeed handsome but not more than Sanjh pft. "Nice to meet you" I said and we shook our hands with lots of struggle because Kush was hugging him tightly like his mom.
"Nice to meet you too Sachi" He said and looked at Kush. Kush also looked at him, Randhir smiled and Kush started to kiss his face. He laughed and said "Sorry Sachi, I will talk to you later. Looking at Kush, it looks like he missed me the most." I smiled looking at their father son duo and said "It's totally fine Randhir. Of course, he will miss you 'cause it has been more than a week now. He always called 'dad' whenever someone used to speak on phone saying that it's you."
"Really, this is the first time after our marriage and Kush's birth that we were apart, that's why." He said smiling looking at Kush who was still busy in kissing his dad's face. I just nodded and said to him "Come inside why are you standing there?" he laughed at me and came inside and got comfortable on sofa with Kush.
I gave him water and went to kitchen to make lunch. Their family is really cute when they are together, that's why Samastha always said "I miss Randhir" I sighed and started cooking. After few mins Navya came to kitchen. Looking at her I asked "Navya, do you want anything?" "Yeah your husband" she said under her breath but I heard her "Huh? Did you say something?" I asked her again not believing her "Yeah just water" She said with her so called fake smile.
I also gave her my fake smile and said to a worker "Aunty, give her a glass of water." she gave her water and Navya left the kitchen. I sighed, what the heck she wants my husband. Well then you're on your right path Miss Navya Sharma. Get him if you think he is too easy to get. I love him now for more than 6 years and she thinks that he is easy to handle and get. I rolled my eyes thinking about her.
I started to cook again but I felt that everything around me was spinning. I shook my head twice to concentrate on cooking but suddenly everything went black. I collapsed on floor, I was looking at everyone but my vision got blurred, I heard the sound of workers shouting my name and calling everyone. After that my eyes got closed and my body went numb, I don't know what happened to me after that.
