Sarpanch's Biwi • 18+

3 || Introducing family

कभी कभी कुछ तो,
कहो पिया हमसे
ए, कम-से-कम आज तो खुलके मिलो ज़रा हमसे
है रात अपनी,
जो तुम हो अपने,
किसी का फिर हमें डर क्या,
बाहों में चले आओ,
हमसे सनम क्या, पर्दा?

Author's POV.

"I know you're shy. But I would like to hear my answers in words, Priya."

She didn't even knew his name.

She was feeling so shy.

So awkward.

He finished his work and held her hand, slowly.

"Aren't you tired? All these jewelleries?".

She nodded her head a bit.

"Open them, change your clothes, wear something simple."

He said and she didn't knew what to do exactly.

Where she should change?

Where is her clothes kept?

Nothing.

"Should I help you?", he asked and she immediately shook her head.

She heard him laughing softly.

He pointed his fingers towards the corner of room,

"There's dressing table, you can keep your jewelleries there for now."

He showed his finger towards the cupboard,

"Didi has arranged sarees for you, it's in the cupboard."

She nodded her head.

"And... you can..change in our..room itself. I'm your husband."

She felt stingy ache in her stomach.

Infront of him?

How can she change infront of him?

She stood up slowly from the bed, feeling his eyes on her back.

The hairs of the nape of her neck, pricking her.

She opened the jewelleries one by one and noticed his figure in the mirror, looking towards her, lying on the bed.

Keeping her jewelleries inside the drawer, she moved towards the cupboard, her anklets echoing around the room.

She opened the cupboard only to find out his clothes kept on one side, and her clothes on another side.

She picked out a simple saree from the cupboard. Now the main challenge for her was to change her clothes in the same room.

But as soon as she saw towards her husband, he turned back, looking away from her.

She felt good.

Good, that her husband respected her privacy.
