Their Equal Share

25.Early arrival

Niranjana's p.o.v.

"You are leaving earlier today?"I asked Dr.Raj,he shrugged "Today I had less patients to attend,so I thought accompany you in the elevator." I rolled my eyes at his statement."Then how is you life?" he asked me as the elevator started to move."Hmm...job is great. Dr.krishnamoorthy said that he is impressed with my performance as my patients had given positive remarks about me.So,he had confirmed my job here in this hospital yesterday.Finally,I had acquired my dream." I told him frankly.

Dr.Raj is a good friend and colleague to me in this hospital,he is one of the young ophthalmologist, an eye specialist.He shook his head,"I know about this Niranjana,I am asking about your marriage life.You said you had got married recently only."

I blinked my eyes thinking what should I say,before I could say something he interrupted "I am asking because,you never shared anything about your husband." his words are true,I didn't because,there is nothing much for me to tell about my husband,I merely knew him till yesterday night.

Moreover I knew my husband's company is one of the toppest companies in the city.I don't want to again any attention due to my husband's reputation.Actually I don't prefer attention from others."Well...my husband is a business man and I am quite good and happy."the latter part due to yesterday's night with my husband.I smiled at him and exited the elevator waving him goodbye before he could ask any other question.

When I entered the house I was shocked to see my husband already in the living room."You came earlier today?" I asked with surprise.He snapped his head towards me after hearing my voice."I just arrived,I was waiting for you." My eyes widened with this information and increased my surprise.

"Me...why are you waiting for me?"I asked hiding my shock and excitement.He rubbed back of his neck and looked at me.When he saw that I was still waiting for his reply he began."For last few days I was thinking that..." he was struggling to speak which amused me.

Surya who masked himself to be cold and arrogant with me is struggling to talk with me, this is really a scene to watch.He drew a deep breath and released."I think that we should try this marriage.I was thinking about this for few days.So...."he trailed off looking at me.

"....what do you think of it."I completed for him.He stood there watching me expectation.I really felt giddy with his confession.He wants to try this marriage,the person who said that he don't want this marriage on wedding night,he himself came forward to ask me this.

"I..think...it is all of sudden.You..only said that you don't want this marriage before." I stammered to tell it.Why am I stammering now.His face fell with my confession."I know...it was a mistake.I should not have told you like that."he said sadly with his head bend.

Before he can decide anything I beat him"but...I want some time to think about this." suddenly his face brightened with my answer.Of course,I would not leave this opportunity.

Even before he thought of asking me,I had already decided not to give up on him.If I say about yesterday's night and ask his problems.I definitely know that he will not tell.May be he would maintain a distance to avoid me.

I cannot allow it.I want him to share his problems with me.I want to think about this first before I can decide anything.

"How much time do you want to think?" he asked breaking my thoughts.My eyes wavered thinking of an answer. "Hmm..may be tomorrow?"it sounded almost like question.He just nodded in agreement.

"Then tomorrow morning,before going to office."he said and headed to his room.I stood there gaping at him.He didn't wait for me to tell anything.He said like it is final.

But after few minutes I found myself smiling for no reason.I am really glad that he had thought of trying this.
