Adrik [ POV]
After coming back the first thing she did was hold purvi in her arms and then picked her up in her lap. " Mummy you're home. " Said purvi with a cute smile .
" Yes , I am home ....my cute girl. " She said and kissed her cheek. She fondly pinched akash's cheek and gave a big smile when pradip gave her a glass of water. she really loves my kids. Specially purvi seems to be her favourite.
she has accepted them as hers excluding their poor dad. She still sleeps in different room with my daughter while I sleep in the guest room. Not that I was too excited to be with her but now looking at how she cares for my family or me. I kind of want to be with her.
She have forgiven my parents for forcing her to marry me , she took my childrens as hers. But for some reason I am still treated as outsider. I remember her not recognizing me ....is their any chance she still thinks I am a stranger. But how that can be.... my family and my kids confirmed that its me.
Looks like I have to work hard to earn her trust back again. " Husband , I think we should start taking out the blankets and gather fire wood. cold is almost here. " she said while taking Arab from the mat to feed him.
" yes , misti I will do that. " I responded. " good, kids dinner is ready , lets eat together. " she called and well its dinner time now. And as for other things we will talk about it later.
Trishna ( POV )
I am ready to make dinner for the kids. I have to talk with Advik about purvi's education. Without his help it's not going to be possible. And I have to start earning money to ... otherwise it's going to be hard for Advik to support us.
Since winter is coming I can start a little shop of tea and warm roti and curry. Workers can have something to eat before going to work. And it will help my family a lot. Slowly I will expand my shop. Here tea is well loved but variety is not available here. And I know a special way which makes tea taste even more tasty.
Now for dinner I have boiled potatoes, I smashed them and added some salt to it. I have sliced onions, coated each ring with potato and fried them , they will taste Crispy and tasty.
I served the kids and they eat with joy. After that Advik helped me clean the kitchen after our dinner. He is really a very good husband I can tell you that.
" Do you have extra blanket....it's really
cold . " said Advik. But I don't have any more blankets left. We have to take them out from trunks , put it in sun and than we can use it.
" Husband....today you sleep with Arav . You will not be cold that way. " I told him. Arav will sleep in middle....what can go wrong right ?
He nodded and went to bring his pillow. I helped kids wash their hands and legs. I helped them apply cream. And put them to sleep.
" Mummy ....will you always be their for
me ? " asked purvi in a whisper. I sat beside her " yes dear...why would you ask ? " I asked her. " You didn't liked me at first....but now you like me. You will not start hating me right? " She asked still in frightened voice.
" Mummy will always be their for you. I will love all of you . So don't worry. " I told her. She smiled and I gave her a hug and a kiss. She lied down and went to sleep.
As I came in my room. I saw that my little guy is wide awake playing in the bed. What a naughty kid. Adrik is sitting next to him ...must say my husband is really handsome. His hairs looks wet. .he has taken a shower again. I don't understand his obsession with night showers.
I mean I understand if you take a shower at summer nights ..but it's winter and today it's extremely cold. At this rate he will soon catch a cold and will be sick.
" Husband, you have taken shower again ? " I asked him and he nodded. " Why ? " I asked him. " It's little uncomfortable to sleep without taking a shower. " he said and I don't think it's a common practice here. But I guess as a doctor he likes to keep his hygiene.
" Husband days are really cold now , at this rate you will catch a cold . I have bought bathing towels for you....no need to take shower before bed. " I told him. It will be hard if he gets sick.
" What are bathing towels? " he asked looking confused. " Towel with fine scented soap fragrance...just rainse it in water and used it to wipe your hands and legs ..works just like shower and you will not feel cold . " I informed him.
" Well, okay as you say. " he said , he never disagrees with me. Maybe I can convince him about purvi's school as well. But I need to talk with him about it first.
" Husband, have you ever regretted for marrying me ? " I asked him. I am curious to know. After marrying a woman who didn't even care for his family he must have felt bad.
" Well , at first I did fell little bad. But than I realised it was a new environment, you were suddenly burden with so much responsibility...it was overwhelming...it took time to adjust ..but you did. And I am happy about it. " he said with a serious face.
" In future if I decide for our family...you will support me right? Of course I will not do anything to without asking you first. " I need to have this confirmation.
" Of course...it's your family, you have full right to decide and I will always support
you. " he said holding my hand. And I felt really safe and happy with him. Truly my decision was right. I truly have the best man in the world.
