Taking What's MINE!

The injury

Diya's POV

I've been quite busy lately, busy with a lot of works related to dad's new business venture, busy with Shruti's project, and the normal household chores. I've been through a lot and now I just want to focus on the present, I mean yes, it came as a bolt out of the blue when I first came to know that I was adopted and that the orphanage was involved in a deep mess but, now I'm over it. After what Rahul told me, I somehow feel good. I don't know why, but maybe my past shouldn't get in the way of my future and that's what I want to focus on, my future with Rahul. And about my parents, well I just don't want to tell them that I know I'm adopted. I mean there sure should have been a reason behind them trying to hide the fact from me, and if the time comes they might talk to me about it.

I feel different, I feel good! I feel important and that's all thanks to Rahul, I wonder how could he be so patient with me? I wonder why he likes me so much, but now I've found a friend in him. I sure was scared of him, well, it's not like I'm not scared him now, but I'm only starting to give us a chance. "Bahu! where are you?", I was interrupted by none other than Dadi Maa, she came back this morning and I need to check on her.

As I walk towards Dadi Maa's room, I hear giggles and laughter coming out of it, I enter the room only to find Rahul laying his head on the laps of Dadi Maa while engaged in talks. "Good morning Dadi Maa", I smile "Good morning I want the water for my bath ready in 5 minutes", replied Dadi Maa while stroking Rahul's head who was possibly lost in some dreamland with his gaze fixed on me. I nodded and walk towards the right corner of the bedpost to collect the luggage and segregate the clothes to be washed while arranging Dadi's room.

While I was busy cleaning Dadi's room "Rahul, I think you should get ready as well, I want to meet Sharma's family at the earliest and make sure that Vikram and Jaya are ready as well, also, get Shruti ready! she has become such a spoilt kid that she listens to nobody these days", Dadi was patting Rahul's shoulder while trying to wake him up, but I didn't understand the purpose of meeting Sharma's family, I mean it's not like Papa meets anyone unless it's a business related meeting and why is it that the whole family is getting ready for it?

"Dadi Maa... the water is ready, I've cleaned the room if you fall in need of something do let me know", I was done with my job in Dadi Maa's room and so I was about to walk out when "Bahu, before you leave I have another work for you, make sure you get Shruti ready in her best, the sort of a stubborn kid that she is, she might listen only to you, so don't let me down I want her ready in the hall by 10 AM", "S-sure Dadi Maa", I gave a faint smile and left the room.

"Shruti! wake up Shruti, it's 9 already and we are to leave in an hour!", I've been trying to wake miss I-sleep-like-there's-no-tomorrow but all my efforts are going in vain. "You sure are like your brother!", I could not forget the day when Rahul was all over me and crushing me with his weight on top of me. There's no doubt they are siblings "Did you just call me?", I was startled to such an extent that my soul nearly left the body, "Haha Bhabhi look at you! you look as pale as you've seen a ghost", giggled Shruti from under the covers, "Shruti, you were awake all this time?", I ignored Rahul and walked past him not daring to even glance at him "Bhabhi, why don't you just let me sleep?", "Enough Shruti! if you don't get up and step into the bathroom now, I'll have to do it myself and you must know that a cold bucket of water is waiting right by the bed to be splashed on you!", I said in a warning tone to which she immediately responded by running into the bathroom, I was laughing uncontrollably at her reaction when someone cleared their throat that alone was enough to make me nervous again not wondering whose it was, "I wonder why you'd call me stubborn?", he spoke while taking steps closer to me, "Wait, I didn't say that!", with every step that he took towards me, I was taking a step backward, I don't know why but this didn't seem like I'd escape him now.

"If I were you I'd stop where I'm", I couldn't get what he was saying that's when I stumbled upon the bucket containing water by the bedside which I kept. "Oh No...", just when I was about to lose my balance, my hand was pulled and when I opened my eyes I found myself in a pair of strong arms with water spilled all over the place. "Oh no! it's a mess in here", I was worried the carpet is going to get all ruined and I'll have to clean this place for the mess that I've caused "Baby, first you'll have to get us cleaned, look how wet you've made me", Rahul's arms were on my waist slowly making their way up, "stop it, and just let go already, what will Shruti think if she see's this", I was hell bent on freeing myself and when I tried to stand up a stinging sensation hit my ankle, Oh my God! please don't tell me that I sprained my leg "Looks like your ankle got sprained", the words hit me from the behind, Man! he sure gives me chills every time he nuzzles his head on my neck.

"Oh no! it's a mess in here", I was worried the carpet is going to get all ruined and I'll have to clean this place for the mess that I've caused "Baby, first you'll have to get us cleaned, look how wet you've made me", Rahul's arms were on my wa...

"Bhabhi! are you okay?", Oh no! Shruti is out of the bathroom, I've no idea what position we are in but I still can feel his hands on my waist and God I feel so embarrassed. "Shruti get an ice bag, Diya has sprained her ankle", I felt like I was being carried, apparently, I was being carried and the pain was taking over me "It will hurt more if you won't stop fighting me", he said in a serious tone, and I was left with no choice but to let him carry me, I soon found myself feeling the soft bed but my ankle was no good, Rahul laid me on the bed and held my ankle, "W-wait! what are you doing?", I protested 'cause it's awkward and nobody touches my ankle, I mean that's my ankle "Look, I'm your husband I have full right over your body more than anyone else, more than you yourself, so stop fighting already!", with that, he continued to examine my ankle making me feel so stupid! like super stupid, first he makes me nervous then he embarrasses me before Shruti and now he gets to hold my ankle acting all angry and possessive, "I can handle it, okay, I just will rub the ice bag, you must go get ready, Dadi Maa must be waiting for you...", and before I could complete my lame excuses or more like trying my chances of escaping him he interrupted " you better keep quite or I'll have to kiss you real hard to do it myself and trust me this time I won't go easy on you", that warning was enough to make me zip up! man! this is horrible, I just wanted to help Shruti get ready, all this was a complete unexpected mess.
