Chapter 31

Megha's POV



I tried to remove his arms without waking him up and got out of our bed. After completing my business, I went downstairs.

Bhaiya and bhabhi were having tea, I said good morning to both of them and they offered me to have tea.

I wanted to ask them about the girl. But, all of a sudden bhaiya's phone started ringing. He got busy in the call. Bhabhi asked me, " Megha is everything was alright? Mehul was looking distracted and upset last night."

I told her everything, Bhaiya had also joined back again. He said, " Though it is not my story to share, I know he would not tell you. He must be very upset right now and you need to know about her. Her name is Esha and she was Mehul's girlfriend. She got married to another man all of a sudden. She didn't even bother to explain anything to Mehul." I was feeling very bad for Mehul.

" He was in love with her and planning his life with her but she didn't even bother about his feelings and broke up with him over the phone. He was shattered at that time. " Bhai said.

" How can she be so insensitive? " I asked. He told me everything they knew about her.

" So Megha, we need to cheer him up. He is a very sensitive person. He needs to be distracted. " Bhabhi said and I nodded.

" But, he is not even talking to me. Last night, I tried to talk to him, but he was adamant. He gave me monosyllabic answers. "

" He didn't eat properly last night, though you made his favourite dishes. And as far as I know, he was working very late. Right? " Bhabhi asked and I nodded.

Oh god !! I slept in the study but woke up in our bed, that means...

Well, the situation is not as bad as it looks. I was smiling now

" Find some way to cheer him up. " Bhabhi winked at me.

My face started getting red and I went into the kitchen to prepare something special for... Everyone. I made Khandavi, Muthiya and Shrikhand. I hope he is in a good mood today.

Bhaiya asked me to wake him up. I went to our room but I stopped...

He had just come out of the bathroom after a shower and was wearing just a towel... I tried to look away but somehow my eyes were being stubborn.

What's wrong with him?? Does he do that deliberately??

I mean, who walks around in a room just in a towel?

He was about to open his cupboard, when he saw me and raised his eyebrows and said, " So you liked what you saw ?"

" What?? I was not looking at you. Why would I do that? You are not Salman Khan. "

" It's ok, you don't have to be embarrassed about the fact that you could not take your eyes away from me. " He was smirking and I wanted to kill him.

" Ha ha ha... You think very highly of yourself. I am not interested in you."

" Oh, come on !! I know you are dying to touch me. It is written all over you. It is ok with me, go ahead. After all, you are my wife and it must have been really difficult to resist such a handsome man and that too without a shirt. "

He was coming towards me but I was too shocked at his words that I didn't realise that he was already so close to me.

" What??? You must be crazy if you think so. Don't start this stupid conversation again. You always do this."

" I always do what? "

" You keep roaming in our room, with just a towel..... "

" How do you know, if I am wearing just a towel?? You want to check??"

" Noooo !! Are you out of your mind now? " I closed my eyes. I heard him chuckling and realised that he was just teasing me.

I opened my eyes again and saw that he was grinning like a fool.

I turned and started walking when I felt his arms around my waist. He pulled me against his body. And whispered in my ear, " You look beautiful when you blush and you blush a lot around me. So, that proves that you are affected by me. Admit it, beautiful."

I turned in his arms and yelled,

" No, that is not true. I AM NOT BLUSHING. You keep touching me. That means you are affected by me. By the way, last night I asked you to come to the room but you didn't and I slept there but I woke up in bed with your limbs all around me. Please explain yourself." I smirked at him forgetting that I was still in his arms.

" I slept in the study only. How do I know, how we ended in bed?? You must have done something. " He said and grinned.

" Wow !! You want to say that I, a girl... picked you up and carried you upstairs??? " I was laughing now.

He just shrugged and said, "How do I know?? I was sleeping you could have taken advantage of the situation. And anyway you are morden superwomen... capable of doing anything."

" You know what?? You are crazy. " I tried to get away from him when I realised that he was still holding me. I tried to push him away by pushing his shoulders but he came even closer and said, " You know what, you are beautiful... "

He kissed my forehead and then my cheeks and finely my lips which made me gasp. My hands were on his chest now and I could feel his muscles under my hands. His arms tightened around me. I felt weak at my knees. I would have fallen if he was not holding me. My heart was beating like a drum and my face was as red as a beetroot.

Just then there was a knock on the door. Mehul cursed and stepped back releasing me.

He said come in, in a hoarse voice.

Bhai entered the room looking at his phone and said, " Mehul why are you taking so much time to get ready? I sent Megha to call you bu..." He stopped in mid-sentence as he looked at us. I was as red as a beetroot and his face was also a bit red... He was blushing.

Bhaiya tried to hid his smile and said, " I am sorry, but did I interrupt anything? "

" No," we said too quickly.

" Then why are you both blushing? " He was smirking.

I was so embarrassed that I just left the room and ran downstairs. Bhabhi was waiting for all of us at the dining table.

" What took you so long? It's been ages. I am hungry. Can't wait to eat all these things you made. Where are Mudit and Mehul now?" Bhabhi asked

" We are coming, I had to personally go and get Mehul. He was actually very busy. Right?" Bhaiya asked Mehul.

"Hmmm," Mehul said and took the chair which was next to mine.

We both could not even look at them. We all started having breakfast.

" So Mehul, How is the breakfast today? " Bhabhi asked him

" Very nice, you know I like all these things. Thank,s bhabhi for making them. "

" No, I didn't prepare them. Your wife did, as she was very much concerned about you. You didn't eat well last night. So you should eat more now and thank her not me."

" Oh, he has already thanked her. That is why it took them so long to come downstairs. " Said bhaiya mischievously and winked at bhabhi.

She laughed and bhaiya joined her.

" Mehul, I am going to Mumbai today itself for two days. So take care. " Bhaiya said to Mehul and he nodded.

We finished our breakfast. Bhaiya and bhabhi really liked the dishes I prepared. Bhaiya told Mehul that they have a meeting with some famous jewellery brand in about 2 hours. Mehul nodded and said he will be there. They were in a hurry so they left. I was eating slowly, he held my hand and kissed it.

" Everything was amazing, I loved it. Thanks, for making them for me and the dinner last night. Can you please pack more of that for me? I would love to have them later. I am too full to have more right now."

I smiled and went to pack everything for him.
