A Little Effort
A Little Effort
In the room, Aditi was sitting, confused, scared and some of uneasiness in the mind. It was first night of the marriage. She didn't know, will her husband understand her Or not, because understanding is important in the marriage.
Door opened, Ashutosh came and sat. He looked at her, she was beautiful, amazing, she is beauty herself. Perfect face cut, perfect lips and perfect nose. If Perfection has a face, she is Aditi.
Ashutosh wanted to speak up something but he was incapable of uttering a single word. Aditi looked up, her eyes met Ashutosh's. Ashutosh lost his all senses, after sometime, he took a deep breath and spoke, "I know that you weren't excited for this marriage, and maybe not interested too."
Aditi didn't know what to speak, but there was one question in her mind, she tried not to ask but still, in the ending she asked, "were you excited or ready?"
Ashutosh looked down, thinking of something. Then said, "I wasn't ready, and yes, not even excited but... I knew, the day will come and I've to get married with someone, someone whom I don't know."
Aditi was looking down, but she felt something in her heart, mixed feeling, Joy, pain, shock, love.
"You know, I am afraid, You Don't know who am I, nor do I, but, you need to know that, I am some kind of heated person, heated blood, mind, type of a anger, rudenes and so many other faults in me." Ashutosh said with low voice.
"Do you want me to afraid of you?" Aditi said.
Ashutosh looked at her eyes and said with delighted tone, "I want you to change me." Then he stood up, went towards the table and started to take off the Jewels and Pagdi, he said while doing work, "I always make decisions by myself, but now when I am married, you have rights for making decisions, at least, suggesting me. I'm not saying that I am perfect, but I can try.'
Asiti looked at him, and he turned, again sat, and looked straight into her deep and beautiful eyes like ocean. Then said, "One day come, everyone gathers, a big function helds, rituals are done, people celebrate it, and lastly wishing them and go to their home, this is what wedding is nowadays, but the main thing is, this day comes with a drastic change in the life of two people. Unbreakable relationship, 7 promises with holy circles, And me, who knows only unbreakable glass, I am trying for unbreakable relationship." Ashutosh smiled, Aditi too, they both looked at each other.
"You don't have to worried about it, you know what, I want to share something with you." Aditi said.
"Feel free."
"When my mom and dad asked me to marry you, I was so shocked, I thought arranged marriages are not good at all, my friends teased me because of this, they said too many things, that I am old fashioned, How can I agree to marry someone, doesn't I have my own life? How can they select groom? I was also some kind of angry with my parents, thinking that they didn't care about my thinking at all. But now..." She stopped.
"Look, I am accepting that it will not be perfect, but I am sure I'll not hurt you, not intentionally at least, I just want you to be happy in this home, in this family. It's my duty to make you feel comfortable here. And, another thing, Parents always want us to be happy, that's why I also agreed for this marriage." Ashutosh said.
Aditi felt something in her heart, like she was touched by Ashutosh, she felt secured with him.
Then, suddenly Ashutosh remembered something and said, "hey, it's so late, you and me, both should be sleeping."
Aditi looked at him with surprise, she didn't expect him to be so much understanding. "Are you sure you want to sleep?"
"Then? Should we play football this time?" He laughed, Aditi also smiled, and said, "No I mean, Are you sure? You wanna sleep?" Her face was adorable and confused.
Ashutosh continued seeing her, and said with a low face, "you're my wife, I've respect for you, that's why, we should give more time to this relationship. change and sleep now, it's almost 1 o'clock."
Aditi looked at his eyes and smiled.
Fear gone, heart melted, feelings started to take place in heart of both, this is what a little effort can do.
