There was something different about that touch!

There was something different about that touch

It was her first night with her husband. Though she was relaxed lying in the bed but as Mohit approached her in the bed, she quickly felt nervous about it. She was pretending as if she was in a deep sleep but as soon as Mohit touched her arm she quickly opposed him. He got confused at her action but did not question her. He signaled her to sleep while he turned to the other side and slept.

It was dark outside and the clock hung on the wall indicated it was 2 am in the night. Mohit was sleeping with a calm expression on his face. Shravani was awake with wide open eyes. She got up and stood near the window. She kept looking out of the window while her tears traveled from her eyes to cheeks. With her blurry vision she could still clearly see the flashback as if it just happened yesterday.

“You came late as usual. I don’t like waiting at the bus stop while all people staring at me.”

“I am sorry, Sharu. Are, next time I won’t be late.”

She looked at him and then quickly smiled.

“Pakka?”

He nodded.

“Then let’s go.”

They had a plan to watch movie and then one round at Marine drive and back to home. They watched movie, grabbed some popcorn and wandered at Marine drive while he took her hand in his hand.

The sun started to set in and the hues of clouds were changing setting a colorful backdrop while the couple in love walked hand in hand.   

It started pouring suddenly and they ran towards a bus stop to take a shelter. Both were already wet. The water drops on her face shined and grabbed Rahul’s attention. Unaware of the fact that Rahul was staring at her, she was busy wiping her wet hands with the odhani. When she looked up, she saw Rahul came near to her closing the distance between them.

He took her face in his hands and quickly kissed her lips. For a moment, she froze with a sudden touch. The touch was warm yet made her to shiver. That short kiss touched her soul and from that day onwards their love for each other strengthened more. There was something different about that touch, when he kissed her lips. That touch not only changed her life forever but her identity as a whole. Her life was no more of hers when she exchanged the kiss with him; the vows they took together and many things.

Just like other abrupt short love stories, this also ended soon and Shravani’s parents hooked her with the guy from her community. They weren’t ready to get marry their daughter with other community’s guy. They arranged her wedding very quickly leaving no time to contact him again.

Now, Shravani was in dilemma she didn’t know whether she will ever feel the same feelings when Mohit will take the hold of her life. She didn’t know whether she was ready to give herself to this man whom she got married. Only she knew there was something different about that touch and she knew she would never feel that again!
