7. "You are bad at lying"

"No bhabhi! This is not what I meant when I say I'll eat healthy. You made me a freaking carrot juice?" Sirat made face at the juice which Chavi kept on the table in front of her.

While Chavi just stood there beside her, with a frown on her face.

This girl here had been pestering her since five days to make her healthy breakfast as she was going to go healthy. And now when Chavi had finally given her carrot juice and sprouts as breakfast, she is making faces.

"Then madam, tell me. What do you want to eat?" She asked to Sirat with a scary smile.

Who then realised she had messed up.

"Uhh.. nothing bhabhi. I'll eat this only. Haha thanks for it." Sirat replied with a nervous smile and started eating her sprouts.

Because she knows, an angry Chavi is hazardous for health.

After she had eaten almost half of it, Chavi made her way out of dinning hall as she was now sure that the smaller girl wouldn't throw the breakfast somewhere.

As she was coming out of the room, she collided with a wall. She was saved from falling by an actual wall which was behind her.

She was scared of falling which never occured. That's why she closed her eyes.

But as soon as she realised she was fine, she opened her eyes. Only to see a raging pair of black siren eyes boring into her brown doe ones.

"Siddhant?" She called his name ridiculously. It was actually very ridiculous of her to think of him as a wall. But he don't need to know.

"Come with me." Saying this he grabbed her wrist in her hand and forcely took her towards their bedroom.

"What's wrong? Hey?" She tried to ask but he ignored.

"I'm talking to you Siddhant. Answer me." Her voice eventually raised.

"Siddhant! It's hurting my hand." As soon as these words left Chavi's mouth, he loosened his grip on her hand. But didn't leave her and kept on going till they reached their shared bedroom upstairs.

"What the hell are you doing, hah?" She was the raged one now. While he was looking at her with cold expressions.

"You are an architect, right?" Siddhant asked her with a serious look.

She was shook for a second.

Why's he asking me such a dumb question?

"Obviously. Don't you know?" She cross questioned him, which he royally ignored.

"Then getting on a higher position in your field must feel good to think, right?" He asked again, going towards the main door, locking it and folding his arms.

"Yes...it does...but why are you asking?" She was now genuinely confused.

His asking her things like this are making some part of her scared that he might have seen that e-mail on her laptop.

No Chavi. That isn't possible. It's your PC for a reason. He wouldn't touch it without your permission.

"So when you gets an offer of promotion, but just because it's in the other part of the continent, you deny it. Huh?" He asked her mockingly and now she was sure he saw her e-mail.

"What the hell! You touched my laptop without my permission?" She looked at him in disbelief.

"I'm glad I did so. Or else I wouldn't have known that my wife was crushing her dreams for God knows what reason." He told her so softly as if telling a kid.

"I'm not." She told him and looked away.

"Sorry but, you are bad at lying sweetheart." He said and made his way towards the couch. He took her laptop on his arms and gestured her to sit besides him.

She denied and kept standing their only.

"Just sit down Chavi. Please." He pleaded her.

"I'm fine here." She was still angry at him for using her things without permission.

"Fine. Then let's jump on the main topic now." He said and opened her laptop.

She was still looking at the door rather than her husband, but from her peripheral vision she could see how he was typings something furiously for a minute till he turned the laptop her way and showed her the screen.

"Why Chavi? Why? You are getting this opportunity to practice in Singapore for ten months. Why would you deny then? You know that how Important this project if for the whole Asian Architecture Community.

You are getting the possition of Cheif Operations Manager for the project and you are denying it? You seriously have this draft saved in your mails saying you will not opt for it?

Why, Chavi? Just why!"

She knew she would have to spill the tea to her husband now.
