Chapter 29

Sadhvi's pov:

I was really startled to see him as soon as I woke up.

He just said that I have to get ready as we will be going to college today.

He just left from there living me alone in the room.

It's been 1 week I have been to college......

I know I do nothing out of ordinary there at college but I really miss going to college.

I mean it is my daily routine to go to clinical postings every morning..... In hospital I can meet few patients who are very polite and welcoming.

I take their case history.... After postings I attend 2 classes and then we will go to labs.

It is like a unbreakable cycle... But I miss spending time with my friends.

They are more like my family. I wonder how they will take the news of my marriage.

I will beg them to forgive me.....

I know that they dreamt a lot about enjoying in each others marriages.... I spoiled it for them.

I sighed and got up from sofa.

I went to washroom to brush my teeth.

I looked myself in the mirror upfront of me only to gasp....

Yuckk why am I looking so ugly.....

I look like a mad woman just came out of an asylum.

My God Siddarth looked me like this.....

I may have looked like a rotten egg.

How will I face him again.

I doubt he will love me after looking like this....he may be regretting marrying me.

I already like him....... What will I do if he ask to leave me?

No Savi.... What are you thinking?

Will he leave you just by seeing you like a mad woman?

No no don't be so paranoid about all these things.....

It's our destiny that we got married. We should not think about leaving each other forever.

Marriage is a.....what we will say...

Yeah... Forever wala cheez hai.

He cannot just leave me.... I won't let him leave me.

I will make him love me.That's it.

With that I did my morning chores and got myself dressed in a peach colored kurthi with black leggings...

I braided my long hair into a simple braid.

I just applied some cream and lip balm on my face.

I also kept a bindi in between my brows.

I looked myself in a mirror.

My neck has thali and blackbead chain which Siddarth tied on the day of marriage.

I look like a new bride.

As I wore a collar neck dress I covered my chains....

I went to mom to ask her about my thali.

In Telugu culture  on the day of marriage groom will tie a yellow thread with gold pendant to the bride's neck. But afterwards the golden pendent will be attached to a gold chain as we can't wear yellow thread long.

As I am still wearing a thread I have to change to chain before I go to college.

I asked mom the same.

She said

"How forgetful I became... Thank you for reminding me Sadhvi beta. Come bow itself I will do that. "

And helped me changing my thali.

Now my neck only has a gold chain and black bead chain.

She said

"Go and prepare a sweet for breakfast..... I said about it last night na ? "

"Yeah.... I remember mom"i said and went to kitchen.

I saw that breakfast was already prepared..... Only thing left is making a sweet.

As there is no enough time I decided to make a sweet dish with vermicelli.

I don't eat sweets much as I don't have sweet tooth.

So I just prepared the sweet for all quickly.

I took the small bowls for serving all from the cabinet and served in all bowls.

I took a tray arranging them neatly.

And went to see all have already settled in dining room.

I placed bowls in front of all and sat beside Priya.

All had their breakfast quietly and had their desert.

After eating desert all praised me except that one who is my one and only husband.

Even I tasted the sweet and it was really good.

Can't he just say it was good?

It was not like I am asking his property....

Hmphmmm....he is so irritating.

Mom and dad gave me a necklace which was ancestral as a gift.

I opened the box and gasped....

It seems it costs heavens.....

I immediately closed the box and returned it to mom.

"Mom I don't want that. It is really costly...."I said.

"Beta... It is for our daughter in law which you are.... So take it as our blessings for you. "She said more like ordered.

"Mom.... I am afraid that I may lose it. "I said thinking she will not ask me to take that necklace.

It is not like I didn't like it. I loved it.

But it is ancestral one and also costly.... What if I lose it?

That is the only thing running in my brain.

"So what.... Just keep that in your room's locker Sid will show you. "She said sternly.

I nodded my head finally.

After breakfast I took the box and went to room.

I saw Siddarth was standing in balcony.

I went near him and cleared my throat.

He didn't turn back so I called his name slowly. I am feeling awkward calling him.

I never talked to him directly taking his name..... It is my first time doing it.

"Siddarth.... "

Finally he turned back and raised his brows signalling me 'what? '

Not willing to say anything I just showed him the box.

I am upset with him for not saying anything.....

I don't want him to shower me with gifts.... All I want is appreciation for my work.

May be I am looking like over reacting..... But that is what I am feeling right now.

Even now he was staying silent. So I  just zipped my mouth stopping myself saying anything.

He showed me the locker and said

"password is our marriage date. "

And left from there.

I looked at the drifting figure and sighed.

I typed the password that is Feb 24....

I mean as 2402.it opened.

I kept the box inside and locked it.

I took my bags from closet and saw him browsing his mobile.

As soon as he saw me he said

"Sadhvi we need to talk. "
