When Ashwin heard his daughter's words he understood that  those men has spoken something about his wife in a wrong way. But his neighbor's house isn't the right place ask his wife regarding those things.

So  he left the place and came back to his home. He took a refreshing shower and laid on the bed to sleep but the sleep was far away.

On the other hand Kavya was scared of Ashwin's reaction.  They never had any sort of fights all these years for her to face his reaction or wrath.

She knew well Ashwin is neither like her father nor like her brother so he would never raise his hands on her. But she doesn't know his anger.

So she tried to buy more time. She stayed in the hall for more time and she felt that he might have slept she went to their room. Today ever that little devil of their daughter is not in between them .

She changed her clothes and laid on the bed. That's when she understood that Ashwin is still awake from his breathing. She fidgeted with herself as how to speak to him regarding this matter.

Slowly she brought up her courage and moved beside him. He was facing the other side.  She slowly wrapped her hands around him. While he stayed mum.

" It was nothing that I couldn't handle " she said slowly.  She waited for his response but he never replied.  She sighed mentally and removed her hands from him and turned the other side facing away from him.

As sleep was about to consume her she a hand  draping around her waist.  Her breath hitched as she knew it was Ashwin.

She could feel his breath on her bare shoulder.  The warmth of his body was passing through her clothes and touching her skin, making body to raise it's temperature.

" you could have told me " he mumbled as his lips touched her shoulder.

Kavya felt that her heart has skipped its beating as his lips touched her. He tightend his hold on her reminding her of his question bringing her out of her trance.

" its.... its nothing that I couldn't handle... " she said struggling little making him roll his eyes.

" I know Mrs. Wonder woman that you can handle everything smoothly but still I want you know that you have inform me " he said to her.

Yeah would have after reaching the home Mr.Police  she said in her mind.

" why don't you just answer me anything without thinking as if you are gonna answer upsc exam " he asked her irritated by her silence.

" nothing .....okay I will do it " she said to him.

Slowly she interwined her hand with his slightly being unsure of his reaction. He tightend his hold assuring her.

She took their interwined hands and kissed it . Soon he placed a kiss on her shoulder making her feel tingles all over her body.

" sleep " she said trying to bring out her voice stiff.

" yeah " he mumbled into her shoulder smiling torturing her with his antics.....
