"Can I drop you off at your bank?" I asked her while tying my shoelaces.

She looked at me and uttered, "Definitely, husband. But won't you be late?"

"I won't be. Bank comes in between." I spoke while standing up and taking the keys in my hand.

"Then let's go." With that, she turned towards me and smiled.

She started moving, but I stood there, waiting for her to look back at me, but she didn't and kept moving. Until she came back inside and looked at me with a frown on her face," What happened?"

I rolled my eyes, "You really forgot?" I spoke while decreasing the distance between us.

"What?" She asked, now she was trapped between me and the door.

I leaned and pressed a kiss on her cheeks, then slowly and gently moved my lips towards her lips and pecked them too.

And in seconds, she was pulling me from the collar and kissing me hard.

I smiled in between, loving her this wild side.

"Now, let's go." I interlocked our hands and moved outside the apartment.

I started my bike, and her hands now wrapped around my torso, settling a warm feeling inside me. 

I don't want to go to that stupid life again, where I have to listen that so called boss, the most haunting man of my life. I wish I could just leave this job.

I sighed and focused on her warmth and road.

"Advik, Stop being too dramatic. What have you done to project? You were only getting married, you should have prioritized your work and literally taken this many leaves, now forget the opportunity to get the promotion......" The boss kept shouting at me for i don't know how much time and kept telling me how useless of person I am.

I sighed.

I was used to all of it but now that I haven't been here for a little time, all the scolding left an ache at the bottom of my heart.

Was I really useless?

I literally tried my best to complete the project but at what cost? To hear the same scoldings.

"Bruh- why would he scold you?" Mahindra, my colleague, another headache of mine and boss's favorite spoke.

If favoritism didn't exist, why was I being scolded at every point of project, but him who get praised every time. We all aren't perfect, right? Sometimes I did better, sometimes he did better, so why was it always me being shouted at?

I ignored his presence and went back to my seat, indulging myself in the work instead of those thoughts.

Time passed my fingers were on the laptop writing- cutting and then rewriting the codes, but not a single breath of relief left me.

Until my phone rang-

Wifey❤️

And a smile automatically formed on my face, and i picked it up and spoke, "Hello, wifey."

"Hey, husband." Her soft voice fell in my ear, giving the relief I was searching for.

"What were you doing?" She asked.

"Nothing, was just writing some code, what about you?"

"I just ate my lunch; I called you to ask if you had your lunch." I frowned, was it lunch time? I looked at the time on my laptop, and it was around 1.

"I haven't but will have now." I muttered.

She sighed and spoke, "Advik, you are making me worry. Please keep having your lunch. And eat now." 

"Sorry, Ritika. Don't worry. I will have it now. Tell me how my cooking was?"

"It was the best sandwich I ever had. You know my friends were literally taking them, but you know how strong I am, I grabbed my sandwiches back." I could feel a smirk on her face and laughed.

"Of course, I know."

"Hee-hee! Now Eat the delicious food made by my husband or i would be really angry."

I chuckled," Hnji ma'am."

"Good, now eat and I got to go, a customer is waiting for me."

"Okay, bye." I uttered, and opened the lunch box and ate the sandwich, and then sent her a photo of the empty box.

"Done, baby! and don't worry about me."

A smile tugged on my face when I read her reply," That's like my husband."

I reacted and kept the phone aside; it was yesterday when we came back from our trip, and now the loneliness caged my heart.

Could I stay with her there forever?

If only I could.

"So how was your day?" She asked, while sitting beside.

"It was tiring, what about you?" I replied, hiding the part where the boss was literally eating me alive.

She would be worried. And no way she has to carry my burden.

"It was good... you know everyone was teasing me and all." She replied, while smiling widely.

"Awe! Thankfully I didn't hear any teasing's cause Dipu was on leave today."

"Ohh oh i seee. Don't worry he will tease you tomorrow." 

"That he would." I whined.

And with both started eating the food together, finding comfort in our silence.
