Chapter 2: Suffering From Fever

Mishty's POV


"Do you want to eat more?", He asked on which I nodded again. Because I love sweets. "I am sorry but I had brought only 1 dozen sweets. I will bring 2 dozens next time". After hearing this I signaled him 3 fingers. "Oh okay. 3 dozens. Will that be fine?". A small smile appeared on my lips after listing that.



"Thank you", I said in a low tone.



"Anyway, why don't you change your dress & wear something comfortable?", Sameer said & stood to leave that place. Fear & Panic ran over my vein 'it is rejecting me?' & I immediately hold his arms softly.



"Don't you feel me worthy of it?", I asked with teary eyes. I can tell that Sameer was in shock after listening to my question. I don't understand why? I left his arm & picked the milk which was near the table beside the bed. "Please have it. This is the first step & then you can do anything you want with me. I won't stop you & will try to give you all those happiness you deserve but don't....don't leave me because of my scars.", I started crying with the thought of being worthless. Sameer gave me his hanky to wipe my tears.



"I am not leaving you in fact I can't.... because you unknowingly returned my brother to me. Believe me, I am just giving both of us some time because we both are strangers for each other. Most importantly Marriage is not only a relationship of the body. It is the union of the heart and the relationship of the soul.  I know, even you don't want all this at this moment. It is just your fear." He stopped & looked directly in my eyes) Your husband will always be all yours. There is no other girl in my life except you & will never be !!  ", He said truthfully. I can see that in his eyes. Finally, I relaxed & smiled after listening to this. "Friends.", Forwarded his hand



"Friends", I murmured softly holding his big hand in my hand. That was the first time when I touched him or say we touched each other.




No one's POV



'You don't need a life span to fall in love with someone, sometimes one moment is enough to fall in love with your special one. & that moment came into Mishty's life on her wedding night. That's another thing that she couldn't understand that but her heart realizes it that Soon, she is going to fall in love with her own husband. But the question is whether he will fall in love with her back?'



"I am taking the couch. Please feel comfortable on the bed.", Sameer said.


"We can share a bed", Mishty replied though she was hell nervous about it.



"Sure I will...but in future when you won't be uncomfortable with me.", Samishty said &  took out his clothes from the wardrobe & went into the restroom. Mishty started jumping on the bed happily.



'Aawww ... thank you... Thank you so much, Dada (big brother in Bengali & she is saying dada to Aarav).....you have given an amazing life partner, which every girl dreams about.', Mishty thought mentally. She sat near the mirror & started taking out her jewelry while taking out her necklace she removed her dupatta taking out her hairpin since her dupatta was attached to it. The moment she removes her dupatta the door of the restroom got opened & Sameer came out of it. Mishty tried to hide her face hurriedly but too late Sameer saw her scar but diverted her gaze to somewhere else so that Mishty won't feel uncomfortable. 

"I hope he hadn't seen my scars.", She thought. and saw Sameer taking the pillow & blanket & adjusted himself on the couch facing opposite to mishty !!




"I am seriously an asshole. I am not ready to share my scars with me & was asking him to consume our marriage."



"I will try not to make any type of mistake in this marriage because my 1 mistake will cost me losing my brother forever"



********Next Morning*****



Mishty woke up early in the morning & she found the couch was empty. Then she saw Sameer was sleeping on the floor covering himself with the blanket. She understood that he might have fallen down from the couch.


'From tonight onwards. I will sleep on the couch.', Mishty made a mental note of it. She walked close to Sameer to say that he can sleep on the bed before anyone could find him ground but the moment she touched Sameer she realized that he is having FEVER & he had wrapped around him because he was feeling cold.



"Listen...Listen, hey open your eyes.", Mishty tapped on his cheek. Sameer opened his eyes a bit but because of high fever, he was feeling dizzy. Mishty helped him in sitting on the floor & then helped him to walk so that he could reach till the bed. Most of the Sameer's body weight was on Mishty. 'God. He is so heavy.'

'Imagine herself under him', Her naughty mind reminded her. Mishty immediately washed that thought from her mind & hurriedly ran toward Aarav's room. She was crying with a thought that all this happened because of her.



"Dada .....Dada", She knocked the door a little loud. Aarav immediately opened the door. It seems like he is leaving for somewhere because he had worn a three-piece suit.

"What happened, Mishty? Why are you crying?", Aarav asked in concern thinking why would be thinking. Last night she got married & in the morning she came to him and is crying. Mishty was not able to answer because she was too gross in crying. "Did Sameer misbehaved with you?"

"I am fine, brother"



"Shut up otherwise, you will receive a tight slap from me. I have messaged the doctor. He would be arriving here anytime soon", Aarav scolded on which Sameer smiled after all it been a year when he had reacted in the same way. Finally, this marriage returned his brother to him along with a wife. While Mishty was feeling guilty.
