Leka pov,
The candle is giving brightness to our house.. I finished cleaning of the house at the evening.. After that I started cooking quickly thinking that I should finish cooking before he gets home.. While I was cooking, the light in the hall suddenly went out which was the only light in our house.. There is no candle or extra bulb in our house.. Therefore somehow I managed and went out of our house in the darkness and told my situation to akka who staying next to our house and requested her to give me a candle.. After giving me a angry look, she gave me a candle.. I just smiled sheepishly as the way to reply her..
After getting candle from her, I resume the mission of cooking.. I finished cooking at night 8.. I know that I took more time to cook than others because I could not cook easily with my trembling hand.. Anyway I finished it smoothly in the end.. I learned to cook in the prison.. At first I didn't know how to cook anything, then I was forced to learn it in the prison.. Prison life taught me a many things.. A sad smile came on my face from the memories of my prison life.. I quickly replaced it as happy smile with the thinking of my husband.. I entered into bathroom to take a shower while wondering why he hadn't came home yet.. I weared again that same dress as there was no other dress for me to wear after bathing..
As soon as I came out of bathroom, I saw him sitting in the bed and removing his socks..I called him and went near him with a smile..
"Hari.."
He nodded and give me a weak smile..After seeing his tired smile, I held his hand and told him,
"You are looking tired hari..Come and have dinner..Then you can take rest"
"No leka..I already had my dinner..Now I just need to take a shower" he told me in a plain tone..
Then without waiting for my reply, he took his clothes from bag which is placed on the shelve near to the bed and stormed into the bathroom quickly..I stared at the closed bathroom door for sometime and sit on the bed and looked at the cuts on my hand which I got while cooking food for him..Why he is behaving like this ??..Does he don't want to live with me?..Did he was forced to get married with me ??..Will he not accept me as his wife ??..
While thinking about all this, my left hand start to tremble..I held my trembling hand tightly with the other hand as to stop the trembling..This usually happens to me when I get tension..I cried silently as I tried to control my trembling hand..I felt his hand on my shoulder.. Even after feeling his touch, I didn't looked at him..I don't want him to see my vulnerable state..I silently tried to control my tears and trembling hand.. Unexpectedly he hugged me sidely in standing position.. My right side face was pressed against his stomach.. My tears and tremble was start to slow down as result of his embrace.. Then I heard his voice,
"Sorry leka.. Forgive me if you are crying because of me.."
He told and sit near me and held my face in his hand.. Don't he feel disgust to touch my scald cheek ??.. This is why I fall in love with him.. He is the only person who would look at my face without any pity or disgust..He wiped my tears and told me in soft tone,
"I don’t like to see my wife tears.. I want to keep you always happy.. I know you lived a luxurious life and it would be hard for you to be in this house.. Sorry leka, with my salary I was only able to rent this house.. You know my sisters and brother are still studying and I have take care of their needs also.. I will try to rent a nice house as you like.. I w.."
I placed my hand on his mouth inorder to stop him from talking further and asked him with a smile,
"Hari.. Do you know how I wish to live my life ??"
He give me confused look and nodded as no.. I smiled and told him,
"I wish to live my life as your wife.. I don't want money, fame or any luxurious life.. I only want you in my life.. Please don't leave me in any situation.. I can't bear it hari.. Everything I said may sound strange to you but I don't know hari what to give you other than my love for accepting someone like me as your wife"
He took my hand from his mouth and kissed it and asked me in deep voice,
"Really you are ready to be my wife in everyway ??"
I understood the hidden meaning in his words.. I nodded as yes and looked at my hand which he was locked in his hand.. I heard his deep voice again,
"Then.. Can we take next step as husband and wife !!.."
I looked at him and held his face in my hand and placed my lips on his as to reply him.. While kissing me roughly, he laid me on the bed and hovered me.. In swift second, he removed mine and his dress.. He removed my dress little harshly.. In the way he removed my dress, I felt pain in my injured leg.. He pressed my chest and said,
"What is this ??.. Why its so small ??.. After touching it, I lost the mood to have sex.."
I felt humiliated after hearing his words.. Tears gathered in my eyes due to his insulting words.. I hugged him quickly when he tried to move away and told him in cracked tone,
"Sor..ry.. ha..ri"
He removed my hand harshly and stated angrily,
"Please leka don't touch me with your shaky hand.."
I looked at him with tear filled eyes.. Why he was insulting me like this ??.. Why he was behaving differently suddenly ??.. I heard his fuming voice again,
"Shit.. Don't you know to shave it ??.. Full of hairs.. No one will sleep with you after seeing your ugly body"
I cried and gasp in pain as he entered inside me brutally.. I bited my trembling hand not to cry loudly.. But he held my both hand in his hand tightly and start to move roughly inside me as if he wish to hear me cry.. I heard his mocking voice as he was moving fastly..
"I never thought you would be virgin"
All his insulting and mocking words piecred my heart like an arrow.. I mumbled sorry again and again for his each mocking words..
