P.S. When’s your function again?
Wife.
***************
Day 229
Wife,
You made me proud. You deserve every ounce of success. My award function is next month.
Husband.
Day 250
Aanya informed him of her event date and coincidentally, it was the same day as his award function. Reyansh was working late at his Delhi office when her email popped up. The content left him stunned:
Husband,
Shikha and I had a long conversation today, about her past breakup and she came up with something very interesting. Want to share this with you too.
So here it is - You were the first man in my life. That alone makes you unforgettable. Initially, what we had between us was resentment… although now it’s something else entirely. When I started feeling for you, falling for you, I’d no one else to compare you with. I never had anyone in my life to choose between you and that person. For me, it was only you. Always you.
The point is… sometimes I wonder if we hadn’t stayed in touch through this long-distance relationship, and I had other man in my life, as a friend or colleague whom I liked, would I still have fallen for you? It’s an interesting thought.
I’m not sure if any of this makes sense to you, but I felt like sharing it.
Your wife,
Aanya.
****************
Wife,
I regret to inform you that you seriously pissed me off.
Ask Shikha to keep her thoughts to herself and not brainwash you.
If you’re sharing all this just to suggest we pause our communication for some time so that you can make some new guy friends and then decide if I still matter to you...then you seriously need a spanking. And trust me, my hands are already itching.
Next time I see you, you’re going to pay for this. I swear. That’s how mad I am!
Your (angry, agitated, frustrated, annoyed) husband,
Reyansh Chopra.
Aanya laughed aloud at his reply. The thought of his palms twitching to spank her was both sexy and slightly intimidating because she couldn’t quite imagine him actually punishing her. She took a selfie, blowing him a kiss, and attached it to her email response.
Husband,
Ignore that email if it made you so mad. This kiss is straight from my heart.
P.S. I’m thinking about that twitching palm of yours. Should I be worried it will hurt too much?
Wife.
