CHAPTER 41

Janaki's POV

I am overthinking. Things are getting escalated much quicker than I expected. However, I like these changes. Therefore I wanted to be pre-cautious. Prevention is better than cure.

I have to think clearly and make the right decision.

If we could kiss without any hesitation, then other things can also happen soon. But I want to finish my studies before I conceive a baby. But honestly, I don't think we could keep our hands off each other anymore. So we need to discuss the protection thing. But it would be embarrassing. Maybe I can take birth control pills. Yeah! That's it. But how can I get them? My mind flashed my friend, Jenny, told me about a gynaecologist she has been consulting for her irregular periods. I called Jenny and asked her to fix an appointment. She is too quick to fix the appointment by the same day five in the evening and sent me the contact details. I have classes in two weeks. I have to make the necessary arrangements before that.

I don't want to tell him that I am going to get pills because I am not desperate for sex, just pre-cautious. But if it happens anytime soon, I wanted to be prepared than later crying over the spilt milk. Unfortunately, the rain started by afternoon and the power went before I started from home. I mentally noted to call him to pick me up on his way back.

I was shocked to see Nandhini's mother there. I knew she is a gyno, but didn't expect her here. I feel so awkward now. But she spoke to me with a motherly smile which eased my discomfort. I asked about how was everyone. She sadly told me about Nandhini being adamant and her decision to raise the baby by herself. I don't know what to say. 

She understood and asked me about the visit. I boldly asked her about my need for birth control pills. She explained to me in detail about the hormones, how the pills work, and that I should take it daily without any fail. I got the prescription and thanked her before leaving. And she gave me her personal number to call if I had any doubt. I purchased the prescription along with few condoms for emergencies as the pills will be effective only after seven days. But I was kinda embarrassed when the woman in the pharmacy asked me a few questions about the type of condom I wanted to purchase, but I just knew that it would help to prevent pregnancy.

I called Prabhu mama to pick me up as it's time for him to start from his office. But my fortune, his number was switched off. Stupid Man! My patience ticked as it is almost an hour I am waiting in front of the hospital. And the heavy rainfall made sure no auto-rickshaws and cabs were ready to drive very far from the place. At last, I have to borrow the mobile of the woman in pharmacy to call Akash.

And he understood my raging anger and kept his mouth shut all the way to my apartment. I was so angry to see Prabhu mama at the parking who was looking at the entrance without even noticing me coming. I didn't even wait to thank Akash. That poor soul came all the way out of his way to home to drop me. I quickly walked into the apartment. Then we had a small outburst, silly apologies, embarrassed with my stupid dressing, two-way teasing and ended up happily with him in his bed. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The climate was so cold, but I was warm with the comforter covering me from head to toe and also my personal warmth provider is hugging me close to his chest. I couldn't even guess the time as the raining is pouring out also we both were warmly wrapped inside the comforter. Yet it was bright enough to tell it was already morning. There is a feeling of something spinning inside my heart. That's what I feel with being this close to him. Some strange yet good feel. I am resting my head over his bicep, and his hand is circled over my shoulder while his another palm is resting inside my t-shirt over the back of my shoulder, making sure to keep me close to him. My one hand is folded and resting over my stomach, and the other is circled around his bare torso, my legs trapped between his. I don't know how long I have been awake, but I was enjoying this heavenly feel of our closeness. I smiled, thinking about our teasing game yesterday.

He was still in a deep sleep with his lips slightly parted, making him look so cute and delicious. I slightly pulled away and studied his so handsome sleeping form. I had the urge to touch him from the last night after seeing his bare upper body. I have seen him twice in the towel. Usually, as soon as I realise his state, I would avert my gaze. But yesterday, the low lighting gave me encouragement to look at his chiselled body. I pulled my hand from his back slowly making sure not to wake him up and also taking my time to enjoy touching his smooth skin. I looked up at his face to ensure he is sound asleep before running my fingers over his arm and chest; it only left me wanting more. But I also felt creepy for touching him while he was asleep. So I rested my hand back in original position half-heartedly. Yet another half of my heart screamed that it's okay because he is my husband. And he was so tempting me to do more sinful things that I never thought about doing.

"Are you trying to take advantage over me while I was sleeping, darling?"

 I froze like a thief got caught on my place on hearing his 'sleepy-husky-teasing-sexy' voice.

He has been calling me darling since yesterday, and I love it. Even though we were sleeping face-to-face, I was so focused on his attractive body and forgot to check his face. I was not going to face him. Not now! After a few seconds of painful silence, he moved his palm inside my t-shirt over my hip and paused there. My heart started racing, and I bit my lower lip in anticipation. My breath hitched when he moved his palm above my hip slowly. I reflexively caught his hand with my folded hand and turned my body to my back defensively. But what I didn't expect was for him to turn along with me and hover above me sideways. My head is resting over his forearm, which he is using to support his body, with his palm pressed over my hip below my palm. And my other palm is resting over his chest, stopping him from getting any closer to me.

I mustered the courage and looked up at him. He was smiling mischievously at me with his raised eyebrow but still having the sleepy look. God! Help me to resist this sexy creature! At least now! I pushed my hand over his chest with little force, and he landed next to me with a smile.

"It's not fair. You can't stop me when you did the same thing?" He whined. 

 I wanted to slap myself for not ensuring he was asleep. This was getting more embarrassing.

"Shut up, mama!" 

 I muttered and got up to escape from his torturous teasing. I heard him chuckle while I got back to my room.

The generator seems working now. I found the time ten forty in the morning and quickly took a warm shower and changed into comfortable yellow kurti and maroon patiala pants. I poured some warm milk for Twinkle and prepared hot chocolate for us. I found him sitting in the chair placed in the balcony and listening to some radio streaming soft songs and thankfully he was wearing a t-shirt now. I extended my hand to give him the drink, but he slowly pulled me in, motioning for me to sit on his lap. I smiled and did as he said. He felt so warm and good for this rain. I placed my head over his shoulder and circled my arms around his neck after the drink. A faint smell of 'pears soap' is entering my nose, and it smells really good from him. So I took deep breaths to enjoy it more.

After a few minutes, I got up and filled Twinkle's bowl and went to the kitchen to make us something to eat. A smile crept on my face as this is the place where we both shared our first kiss. I cooked lunch directly, and the hot food felt heavenly for this rain. The rain has this tendency to make us realise the worth of the many simple things we do in our normal lives that we ignore on other days.

We played with Twinkle for some time. Then we watched the first three parts of the Transformers movie series in a row. And that's how we spent the rest of the day. No one would get tired of listening to his 'I am Optimus prime!' dialogue. This climate made us inseparable as we both were seeking warmth from each other. And at night, I again end up in his bed, in his arm where I belong.

I woke up to the bright sunlight falling on my face from the balcony. I smiled as it's a warm feel to welcome the sun again after the heavy downpour of rain continuously for two days. A small kiss was placed on my forehead. I looked up and saw him looking at me with a smile. I snuggled closer to him and pulled the comforter over our head. He smiled and started tracing lines over my cheek. I smiled and closed my eyes and fell asleep.

When I finally woke up, he is not there in bed. I gathered my lazy self and went to my room to get ready as it's already 9:30 in the morning. I found Twinkle missing and realised he might take him to walk. Umm, I miss them.

I hate that I still feel lazy and he was already out there in the kitchen, here I was trying hard to wash away the sleepiness with the help of a hot shower. But as the atmosphere is still a little chill, the hot shower only makes me feel more comfortable, and I want to go back to my very welcoming bed.

After almost the water started getting cold, I stepped out of the shower and facepalmed myself for forgetting the clothes. I tied a towel over my head and wrapped my fluffy Pikachu towel across my breast, which ends just below my butt, and paused a few seconds at the door to recall whether I locked the room or not. As my sleepy mind couldn't derive an answer, I opened the door and went to my shelf to pick something.

I wore panties and wrapped my towel over my waist to wear brasserie. The click and sound of a deep intake of breath made me freeze from locking my brasserie hooks on my back. Thank god, I am not standing in the opposite direction. It might be more revealing. And I left my hair open which might be thankfully covering my back till my mid-shoulder.

I should have at least checked the door after getting out of the bathroom. But it's too late now.

Has he gone?

I waited for some movement from him, but there is no sign of his presence. My breath hitched on seeing him standing just behind me. How can he be so sneaky? I promise that I didn't hear him moving forward. I felt his hand buckling my brasserie, sending goosebumps over my skin. I'm breathing heavily when I felt his hands on my upper arms and pulling me closer to him. He took his right hand to move my hair to my front. I don't have the courage to turn around to face him. So I remained still and silent.

But he managed to make a moan slip past my mouth by suddenly pressing his warm lips on my neck just below my ear. I bit my lip in the hope that he would stop. But he trailed his lips towards my shoulder while pausing at some intervals to press his lips more and sucking there and continued assaulting my neck and shoulder.

My hold on my hip over the towel is painfully strong, and another palm is stinging with the impact of my nail digging deep. But he was obliviously circling his arm around my waist and moving it upwards just stopping dangerously close to my piece of cloth that trying to cover my dignity. My body is heating up, and my need for him is evident from the wetness gathering in between my thighs. His hand started caressing my stomach while he continues his kisses on my neck. I gather my senses to call him.

"Mama.." But it came out as a moan as he found my sweet spot and sucked it hard at the moment. My intention to stop him backfired as he took my moan as an invitation and swiftly turned me around and smashed his lips over mine. I stood still for a few seconds as we were losing our control for every passing second. But he didn't seem like my passiveness because he placed his hands over both sides of my hips to massage them lightly. I gave in to my desire and responded to him with equal passion and fierce. His explorations were increasing as time passes.

I pulled away panting in need of breath, but he continued his kisses across my jawline and trailed his lips to my neck. My body was reacting to his needs as I automatically tilted my head above to give him more access. I felt him smiling between the kisses across my skin when I did that. Nowadays, I was getting into these situations where my mind screaming at me for my actions while my heart encouraging me to do more. But my heart always wins over my mind as these temptations and needs were too much for me to hold back.

Like magic, his touches were leaving me wanting more. My toes curled when he moved his lips near my breasts. I gripped his hair and pulled him upwards and pressed my lips over his. His hand moved to the back of my neck to support the kiss. 

When it comes to lust, we don't need experience, our body knew exactly what to do.

We pulled away, panting for breath. He placed his forehead against mine, moved his face left to right to touch my nose with his. With one last peck over my lips, he took a step away from me. But my heart didn't like him leaving as it ordered me to pull him back. And I did, which leads to another hot and passionate make-out session.

He pulled away and shushed me by placing a finger over my lips before whispering, "Later."

My tongue highly tempted to ask 'When' but I safely repeated "Later" in a whisper with a nod.

He swiftly went out as if his decision would change even if he had been here for any more seconds. I went to lock the door and facepalmed on leaning behind the closed door. I walked towards the mirror and found the evidence of our heated up actions across my neck. I need to cover them with a shawl while going out. I smiled rewinding everything. Now I was wide awake. Great! So I could ask him to help me the same way, whenever I feel sleepy.

God! My mind was getting corrupted.

No! No! No!

I quickly dressed up in a black t-shirt and blue sweatpants before proceeding to the kitchen. I found him smiling while stirring the curry.

Oh my dear mama! Trust me, our feeling is mutual!

I hugged him from behind and locked my hands over his shoulders. He kissed my hand and let me be there without any words. He asked me to feed Twinkle while he set the table for us. We played with Twinkle and did some household works during the day. Then we went to the nearby park to spend our evening there. And we were engulfed by peaceful sleep in each other arms.
