Broken Vows (Chapter 5)

5

 

As Lakshya decided not to push his feelings forward, he had his mind clear, chose his wife over love, and was indeed ready to confront it with Richa. Lakshya went to the office, skipping the routine of visiting Richa before work. Richa had taken a week-long leave, and she was waiting for him beside the window. Hours passed, and he didn't come. She was simultaneously checking her phone and looking out from the window. Her restlessness was evident on her face, but nobody was there to see it.

Lakshya, too tried hard to ignore, but his phone was attracting his attention; his conscious decision to move on, but his unconscious was propelling him toward Richa.

The day was about to end. Neither of them texted the other. Richa wondered if she scared him too much, but to be safer, her mind told her he must be busy with work; he's a CEO, after all. Lakshya wondered if she fell sick again, she couldn't even message him once. Should I visit her? He decided otherwise.

Assumptions create misconceptions, misconceptions create frustration, frustration builds anger, and anger creates destruction. Am I on the verge of destroying a relationship before it can start? I don't wanna be the villain of my own first love story. Am I stabbing myself? His train of thought quickly changed its track to lust. Vaidehi started to strip. Lakshya dragged himself back onto the bed, his eyes widened, wetting his lips, sensations building another bone in his pants. Vaidehi freed herself with one layer of clothes. Showing off her curves in red lingerie, playing with her hair, and inviting Lakshya to strip her naked. Standing tall, she climbed on the bed and rubbed his groin with her toe.

Lakshya was aghast at seeing his wife wanting to dominate in bed. He pulled her down, and their distance decreased as much as possible. "I am lovin'..." Vaidehi put her finger on his lips before he could finish his sentence. "animals don't talk when they f**k”, she said. She pulled up his t-shirt, sitting on him. They kissed. Vaidehi felt like an achievement when she found her husband smooching her more passionately than she had ever experienced. While kissing, he unhooked her brasserie. His hand travelled her skin to her butt while the other was lost in her hair. He grabbed and squeezed it hard. And then they fucked like never before. Vaidehi saw the new face of her husband, and Lakshya felt satisfied being submissive in bed.

When they lay on the bed after finishing. Vaidehi felt like heaven. Lakshya's mind was struck by the scene when Vaidehi was seducing him in red lingerie. His imagination replaced Vaidehi's face with Richa's. He planned to give Richa a lingerie set if he ever got a chance, but how will he ever get a chance? He had decided to part ways with Richa.

Richa couldn't cope with her anxiety. She assumed she had scared Lakshya a lot. She shouldn't have. Am I on the verge of destroying a relationship before it can start? I don't wanna be the villain of my own final love story. Am I stabbing myself?

She felt the urgency in her actions; 2 days left was still left to rest, but she decided to attend the office as there was work waiting for her and her love story too.

 

At lunchtime.

 

'I am waiting at the terrace',. she texted Lakshya.

You were supposed to rest for a week. He replied.

I am feeling better now.

Coming in 5 minutes.

 

There was no one on the terrace except Richa. She saw him slowly emerging up the stairs. Lakshya continuously told himself to keep it limited to a formal friendship or just break it all in one go. Richa ran towards Lakshya and pushed her lips on his.

Not even in the wildest dream could he have thought about it. His eyes were wide open in shock, his hands in the air, and the rest of his body felt numb. She broke the kiss to see him. You don't want to indulge in a kiss? Keeping it limited to friendship or breaking it all at once, parting ways, being a good loyal husband to his wife, feeling guilty for liking a girl other than his wife, and planning for an extramarital affair is wrong was all a myth in his mind that her kiss destroyed. He just smiled at her, and they kissed again. This time passionately like lovers.

Society infamous men as the dominating gender, but the truth is that women control men. Any woman on earth can single-handedly influence the decision-making of any man. Not because they have command or authority to do it but because they are so good at manipulating. Men get abused without knowing. Masterstroke. Just like Richa altered the decision of Lakshya. Richa didn't do it with evil but with an expectation of a happy future together. She didn't know that the land she was irrigating with love and hope was already owned by someone else who could kick her out.

Lakshya was more than happy. His destiny finally guided him to his first love story. No one said "I Love You", but they knew they meant it. Lakshya called Shiv his best friend. He didn't tell him about Richa, but he was so happy that he just wanted to celebrate happiness. Who can be a better ally than a best friend himself? They partied the whole night in 'Therapy' at the bar, immediately after the party, at 4.00am. Lakshya messaged Richa. 'Pack your bags; we are going on a vacation tonight'. Richa woke up with a smile. She read the message, and it made her day. She was already on sick leave, and another break will be denied. She wondered. Lakshya connected to her Boss and got her another holiday sanctioned. Richa then packed her bag with all the pretty dresses she had purchased, hoping to wear them on her next solo trip; little did she know that destiny granted her a partner to accompany her on her next vacation. Love indeed is magical; it makes you live a miraculous life. She wondered.

Vaidehi saw him packing bags with a life-flashing smile on his face. 'Are we going somewhere?'. She asked. He stopped, thinking of an excuse. Took a deep breath and went to her, holding her hands. When Shiv and I were partying last night, we decided to go on an only-friend trip. I will pick him up from the Sea link, and we are going to Pune. He said. Vaidehi's smile turned upside down. He cupped her face, ' Just 3 days. He said in an innocent tone with his brows shrinking. She agreed.
