Priya is reading a book when Ram comes back to the room after taking bath.

"What are you reading?" Ram asked Priya striking a conversation with her while flipping through the channels in TV.

"Novel." Priya replied without taking off her eyes from the book.

"What kind of books you read? I mean which genre." Ram asked seating beside her on the bed.

"What's the matter?" Priya shut the book and look at him.

"Just asking." Ram continued saying "Don't you ever think about me or remember me even once in your daily routine?" Ram asked hesitantly.

"Why would I think about you?" Priya furrows her brows at him.

"Does my presence or absence makes no difference in your life? I just want to know what's going on in your mind." Ram asked her straight forwardly.

"Why are you asking all these things of all a sudden?" Priya questioned him.

"Please answer my questions instead of shooting back another question." Ram said.

A romantic scene is playing on the television which is distracting her a bit.

"Don't you know the reason?" Priya look straight into his eyes.

"I am not involved with Ashwin. I married you because I love you not out of my ego or for anything else." Ram tried to explain her.

"I know you are not involved with Ashwin." Priya surprised him with her answer.

"When did you get to know about it?" Ram sounded surprised.

"I know it, that's all" Priya shrugged her shoulders simply.

"Hey tell me how come you know about it." He insisted her.

"There is a thing called women instinct." Priya responded. He exhales the air deeply.

"Interesting!" Ram nodded his head. "So what else your instinct is telling about me?" Ram asked curiously with a smirk on his face.

"It is saying that you are very intimidating, egoistic, and politically incorrect and it is saying that I should stay away from you as much as possible and..." Priya said without stopping and Ram interrupted her saying.

"Okay okay enough! Stop believing your so called instinct blindly every time. Sometimes it can go wrong like right now it is telling you the incorrect information about me." Ram tried to defend himself.

"I don't think so." Priya replied shaking her head in negative.

"Why do you still behave weirdly with me when you got know that I am not with Ashwin?" Ram look at her for an answer.

"It's not the point whether you are involved with Ashwin or not. The only thing that matters to me is that you married me without my full concern. You forced me into this so called relationship and want me to behave the way you like. Common I am not a toy, I do have feelings." Priya yelled at him while he stayed numb not knowing what to answer.

"I am sorry, I didn't want to loose you." Ram said.

"You ruined my life and simply saying sorry." Priya fire at him.

"I don't want to loose you and I came up with a marriage proposal to your house. I couldn't take it when you said no to this marriage so I had to force you but trust me I love you so much. I cannot live without you Priya, please understand my feelings for you." Ram pleaded her with an innocent face.

"You came up with a marriage proposal but couldn't take my denial? Common how on earth do you think that I will happily agree to this proposal? Do you think I am the girl who runs behind money and popularity?" Priya eyes becomes red and she breathes heavily.

          

"Please calm down Priya." He said.

"If you love me so much then you could have waited for my acceptance, damn it." Ram didn't have any answer to her questions.

"You said yes to the marriage, don't you?" Ram asked her finding some words.

"My mom blackmailed me into this and I had no way other than marrying you." Priya continued "Tell me what you might have done if we denied the marriage proposal?" Priya shoot another question at him.

Priya gets distracted with the noise from the TV. A girl in the erotic scene is moaning louder than usual. At the same time, Ram leans towards her ear, his breathe falls on her ear making her shiver a little with tingling sensation.

"I would have kidnapped and married you." Ram said with mischievous eyes while Priya gasped hearing his answer.

"See your answer has proved that my instinct is 100% correct about you." Priya move aside a little maintaining gap between them.

"Can you please stop watching this nonsense?" Priya said irritatingly finding an erotic scene on the TV.

"What's wrong with this scene? I like this movie." Ram said playing his tongue on his cheek.

Priya gives him stern look when he move towards her not giving her space to move further.

"They are having a moment that we didn't share yet. Shall we...." Ram asked in husky tone. Priya immediately push him away.

"You are impossible." Priya finds it awkward to see the scene so she gets up from the bed and go to the washroom. Ram laugh at her reaction.

Priya comes back to the room wearing her night gown and she finds Ram is still engrossed deeply in the movie. "God! What's going on?" Priya mutter to herself and occupies her side on the bed silently.

"Okay Let's start a fresh and keep aside whatever happened so far." Ram said after a long pause.

"Please Priya. Let bygones be bygones." He said.

"Can you please switch off the TV? It is such a nonsense and moreover I have office to go tomorrow." Priya chided with irritation and ignore discussing with him further on the topic.

"What's wrong with this movie? I don't even get a chance to do all these things with you and on top of it I am not even allowed to watch also, wow!" Priya gasped at his statement and gives him a deadly look. "I don't have the freedom to do watch anything in my room, sorry our room." Ram corrected himself biting his tongue.

"Sleep and let me sleep peacefully." Priya turned to other side realizing that there is no point in fighting with him anymore.

Ram switched off the TV with a sulky face mocking her and settled himself beside her.

"Priyaaa!" Ram tapped on her arm from behind.

"Hmm...!" Priya turn facing him. "What?"

"Did you notice that for the first time we had a proper discussion between us which lasted for a significant amount of time?" Ram smiled at her.

"Hmm... what should I do? Shall I clap for it now?" Priya said in a mocking way.

Ram pissed off with her disinterest. "Hitler!" Ram murmur. "Good night" Ram said before switching off the bed lamp.

"Good night" Priya replied and closed her eyes.

Priya open her eyes in horror as soon as she finds his hand on her. "Can you please remove your hand?" She said but instead of giving a reply he made his grip tight on her and sleep.
