Let's see your eagerness for the next chapter🩷

Nataliya's eyes widened in shock and shyness simultaneously. Her heart was jumping inside her rib cage. Kaif left the house but his fragrance stayed with her. She could feel his presence.

A small smile appeared on her shocked face and sweet giggles were released from her lips.

Ahhhh, She screamed in her mind reliving their moment.

She wasn't able to get out of the trance. Later she was lying in her bed, reading a book on her ipad when her cell phone started ringing. She looked at the mobile screen and smiled. Kaifi calling was written on the screen and it was his second call in a few hours.

Inko chain nahi hy, She received the call immediately.

(He isn't at peace)

"Aslamo alaikum" He greeted from the other side.

"Walekum salam" She replied meekly. She remembered what happened early in the morning once again.

"How are you feeling?" He asked worriedly.

"I am fine" Her heart filled with pride on his worries for her.

"How is the bleeding?" He asked.

"It's still heavy as it's the first day. Don't you worry about it. It will be settled in a few days" She told him nervously.

"You had your lunch?" He asked another question.

"Yes" She mumbled.

"What are you doing?" He kept asking her different questions.

"Studying" She twisted the words.

"Reading it's called Nataliya! What you are doing is reading not studying" He smiled, remembering an old conversation of them when she was a little kid.

"It's same" She chuckled softly and he was relieved to hear her laugh. He had been very worried for her. He didn't want to leave her alone fearing she might pass out with the amount of blood loss she was having.

"Go and eat fruits. Stay hydrated. Okay! I will try to come soon" He advised her.

"Okay mama!" She teased him.

"I am your husband not your mama" He reminded her, grumpily. He clearly minded her choice of words.

"But you do act like a mother and sometimes like an overprotected father" She hit her tongue after uttering the words.

"So, you want me to act like a husband" He asked amusingly.

"Yes-No-I mean be the one you are" She mumbled nervously.

"Noted" He said and hung up the call.

Ufff Tali ye kiya bol diya tum ne, She hid her face in the pillow.

(What have you done Tali)

Doob ke mar ja bewaqoof, She giggled.

(Kill yourself)

And after an hour he was finally home. She was sitting in the lounge with crossed legs, having fruits when he entered the house with his keys.

"Aslamo alaikum!" He greeted as he entered the lounge and locked the door behind him.

She nervously replied to him and averted her whole attention back to the fruits when he came closer to her and leaned down at her. She got still when he pressed his lips to her cheeks.

Her cheeks turned pink in seconds and eyes widened in shock.

What did he just do?

His lips were warm and soft. The touch they left on her skin was more soft and blissful. Butterflies were dancing inside her erratically.

She wanted to scream and throw her legs in the air in excitement but she had to behave herself in front of him. Her mind blew up on what just happened with her.

So she just lowered her head down and bit her lower lip to hide her bright smile.

"How are you?" He sat closer to her, leaving no space between them. He rested his one arm behind her on the back of the sofa. Her one thigh was resting on his. She shivered at their closeness.

I am over the moon, she could only think.

"I'm fine" She muttered. She badly wanted to hide herself so she wouldn't have to face him, at least not right now. The warmth of his body was killing her heart.

"Why are you so nervous?" He turned her face towards his gently.

"No, I am not" She didn't dare to raise her eyes.

"Yes, you are" He insisted, his fingers still resting on her cheeks.

She only shook her head this time, staring his neck.

"Look at me" He demanded smilingly. Her reaction was as sweet as her

"No" She muttered looking down. She couldn't breathe because of their closeness.

"Easy there. I will go freshen up" He patted her back before getting up and giving her space to breathe.

She left the plate on the table and rushed to her room like a scared kitten. She closed the bedroom's door behind her and sat onto the wooden bed.

"I'm dead" She giggled, closing her eyes, covering her face with both hands. "I wasn't expecting him to take my words so seriously!Oh my God"

After a few minutes, her door was opened but he didn't enter inside. Her back was facing him.

"The weather isn't favorable to close the doors yet" He said before disappearing into the kitchen. She kept peeking at him. He was now leaving the kitchen with one plate and one glass of water in his hands. He settled on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Nataliya kept thinking how to face him again.

When he finished his lunch, their house help arrived. Kaif supervised her while she was doing the dishes and cleaning the house. He knew the woman wouldn't clean neatly if she wasn't supervised.

"Kaif sahab bare sakhat hain Nataliya bibi!" The woman said to her when she came to clean her room.

(Mr. Kaif is a tough man)

"I know auntie" She chuckled.

"How do you live with him. You are so sweet. He must scold you a lot nahi. Sohar to lagte hi nahi hain kahin se" She kept muttering.

(He doesn't act like a husband to you)

Nataliya smiled thinking about their closeness. He wasn't scolding her lately rather he was being very nice to her.

"See he doesn't even share a room with you" The woman was always interested to know why they don't share a room after all they were husband and wife.

"It's not right to discuss such things auntie! I will tell Kaif about it if you say anything like that again" She didn't like anyone talking about such private matters.

Whatever they had between them was their private life, nobody had any right to talk about them. Nataliya wasn't as stupid as Kaif thought her to be. She understood everything.

"I won't. I was just saying casually. Sorry" The woman shut her mouth. She knew Nataliya's bluntness. She wouldn't hesitate to say it to Kaif.

When the house helper left in the late afternoon, she was sitting on the porch on the chair. She was enjoying the wind when she heard his footsteps.

"Here, take it" He passed her a glass of strawberry milkshake.

"I will get fat" She blinked her eyes faster than usual.

"I haven't added sugar in it. It's all natural and healthy. Come on drink it. You need energy" He insisted.

"All I have been doing since the morning is to eat, drink and lie down in the bed" She said holding the glass.

"What else do you want to do?" He asked sitting on the chair next to her.

"I want to go outside the house" She mumbled staring at the glass because her husband was busy staring at him.

What had gotten into his head today! She didn't know her words would do wonders and he would actually take her words seriously. Ufff.

"Where?" He asked, looking at the sky. It was turning dark. According to the forecast, it might rain tonight.

"Anywhere" She said irritably.

"Get dressed we will leave in ten minutes" He said getting up from the chair.

"Give me more time" She protested.

"No. Ten minutes it is. Either take it or leave" He stopped at his place.

"We aren't bargaining for anything" She said not looking up at him.

"Look up at me and I might give you more time" He knew how to play with words she was just realizing it now

"I will take ten minutes only then" She got up from the chair and pushed him aside to walk ahead.

He released a soft laugh.

"Hehehe. You are a professor, act like one" She mimicked him.

"I am just a husband sweetheart!" His words stopped her. Her legs were unable to move ahead.

Sweetheart. Freaking sweetheart. When did I upgrade from stupid to sweetheart, Her heart skipped a beat, time to land in the ER.

She pressed her fists to her lips to stop her giggles and rushed inside her room and released her laughter inside. She was getting too much attention from him today.

It was both nice and awkward for her.

Itni sweetness kahi mujhe sugar na ho jae, She whispered to herself with a shy smile, staring at her reflection into the mirror.

(I might get diabetes with such sweet behavior of him)
