Sagar's house
Sagar was packing his suitcase when Priti came behind. She was looking towards him with full attention. Sagar was putting clothes in bag one by one. She knew that he was perfectionist. He wanted everything to be perfect. He was so obsessed with perfection that sometimes she regretted marrying him. She was married to him for four months & she already began to regret her marriage. She was so stressed by this thought. She knew that she couldn’t confess this to her family. She needed to hide it from her parents & sisters. If she told this they would immediately start to taunt her. She have to pretend that she was happy in her marriage. She looked towards Sagar. He was not anything special. He was simple looking nice man. He was working in his office & earning nicely. She knew that he was nice person but still she didn’t like his attitude. She hated his perfection. He always wanted everything to be placed in its place. He never forced her to do anything. He always did it by himself. But she felt that it was odd. She knew that whenever she put something on wrong place, he would immediately correct it. But in her eyes, it was not wrong place. She was married to him but still she remained outsider in that house. She couldn’t just change one place of anything. She needed to keep all as per his wishes. She knew that she needed to adjust but she wanted to make some changes too. But it was his house she was new comer. She knew that one day she would become part of that house but it was not happening. She kept hoping but it was not working. Today she decided that she needed at least one room for herself. She slowly came in room & asked “Sagar is it okay if I decorate one room as per my choice just for me?” Sagar gave her confused look. Sagar smiled & said “This entire house belongs to you so you can keep anything anywhere as per your wish.” Priti felt so nervous. She knew that means she couldn’t change anything. She felt so upset. She needed a place with permission to change all. He was going out if he gave her one room. But then she sensed that they didn’t have so many rooms. In her parent’s house they had lots of room but that house was not entirely their house. It was family inheritance so it was big but it never belonged to them. They stayed in that house but they never became rich. They pretended that they were rich. She began to laugh by herself on that thought. She didn’t sense that she was looking odd. Sagar didn’t say anything. Sagar felt something was wrong with her. But he was not planning to tell it her. He decided that he would let that matter get ignored. He kept packing his bag.
After few days finally time came when Sagar supposed to go. Sagar was feeling so sad. He knew that he needed to go but he didn’t want to leave Priti behind like that. He slowly said “Do you want to come with me?” She was so shocked. She was waiting for this moment since long time. She wanted to stay alone. But she knew that she couldn’t say it directly. She smiled & said “Actually I don’t like traveling & you need to concentrate on your work. I don’t want to become diversion.” He smiled sweetly assuming that it was romantic line. She knew that he found romance in her every line. He was totally in love with her. She smiled back. He began to get romantic. She didn’t like this at all. It was not positive for her. He wanted to live happily married life but she didn’t want that. She just wanted to avoid him as much as possible. She felt so frustrated but still she knew that she needed to smile so she did. She kept acting romantic with him. She didn’t want him to sense that she didn’t want to come with him since she disliked him. Finally, he got ready & he left. She kept smiling from balcony whole time when he gestured bye she also kept doing same. She wanted him to feel certain that she loved him. He was nice man but she was not happy with him. She pretended her best but she was happy when he left her alone. She looked towards her house. Now suddenly that house appeared like her own house. She smiled & sat on sofa freely. Finally, she was free. But suddenly she began to think. She started to feel this freedom was just for short time. She must not get addicted to it. She wanted to enjoy but she was feeling so tense Still she decided to change furniture first. She needed to make changes inside house. She needed to change curtains too. She went in mall to find wonderful decoration items. She began to admire many shops. She went in them one by one. She started to select them. She slowly began to change entire room. She wanted all things to show different effect. She felt so positive suddenly. She knew that every furniture of house would look different now. She decided that she would totally change entire house in few days. If Sagar didn’t give her a room to change & declare entire house belonged to her then she would change entire house. She would change every corner of that house. Sagar didn’t even recognize it. She began laugh to herself at that thought. She was so happy. She began to sense that she felt happy when she decided to do something whith might hurt Sagar. She was thinking too much about his moods. Now she needed to think about her own moods. She began to look towards packages which she purchased from mall. She selected best things for herself. She began to feel positive about all. She knew that she did best for herself. She smiled happily at her positive thought.
Priti managed to change all in that house. She began to feel so happy. She knew that in few days Sagar would come. It would be punishment for him. She asked for room & he didn’t give one. He deserved punishment & she didn’t have any doubt about it. She began to feel so nervous. She decided that she must not anger him. She knew that she wanted to upset him but at same time she was scared. It was his house. He was her husband but that entire house belonged to him. She suddenly began to feel scared. There were few chances that he would throw her out. She looked out of window. She could see poor people who were staying in small houses beside street. She shivered. She didn’t want to become poor like them. She knew that it was very hard to remain poor. She heard lots of stories regarding hardship of poverty from her servants. They always kept demanding advance from her. She normally avoided it but many times she just couldn’t say no to them. She didn’t want to anger Sagar. She needed his money & luxuries. She looked around. She had already changed her house. She began to feel so scared. She sat on sofa & she started crying loudly out of fear. She didn’t want to hurt Sagar but she had already done it. She kept feeling so scared. She needed to feel positive in that house. But she was shivering. Her heart was beating so fast. She began to feel sick. She started to check for fever. She didn’t have it but still her head was so heavy. She knew that she was not okay. She decided to visit doctor. But she couldn’t her legs were too weak. She couldn’t stand up. She decided to call her parents. She called her mom. Mom “What are you telling me? You changed entire house without your husband’s permission & now you fall sick?” She didn’t say anything for some time. Then she slowly declared “It was my mistake. I will repair it again just take me to doctor.” Her mom didn’t say anything for some time. Then her mom answered “Sorry. We can’t help you. Our health is not up for it.” She felt so sad. She knew that they never helped her. She couldn’t stand up. Finally, she decided to call security. “I am feeling sick. Call someone.” Security person called secretary & ran towards flat. Secretary came with his wife. They called ambulance. She was immediately admitted to hospital. Her blood pressure was too high. They called Sagar. Sagar was so shocked. He came back as soon as possible. He was shocked to see her condition. She was getting breathless. Doctor “She is scared about something. Do you have any argument?” “No Doctor.” She began to cry & tell that she managed to alter entire house. Sagar felt little bit sad but he knew that it was going to happen one day. He smiled & said “I know. I saw you are purchasing that stuff.” Doctor gave him suspicious look. Sagar “Trust me. I don’t mind.” Then Doctor took him outside. Doctor “You don’t have anger issues.” “No.” “You never abused her.” Sagar felt so upset. He knew Society people were watching him. “I never. You can confirm we never had any argument.” He felt so sad. Everyone was blaming him. Then Doctor asked “What about her parents? Where are they?” “Well! They are not coming.” Sagar didn’t want to talk in bad way about her parents but Doctor declared “I feel her parents are her issue. No need to call them. Let’s keep them away. Show her to this psychiatrist.” Sagar took name he did inquiries about visiting time. But he was so uncertain & scared about all. He didn’t have much hope. Still when he came back every one from Society told him that he must show her to psychiatrist.
After getting cure Sagar slowly told Priti that she was feeling anxiety which might lead to heart attack. She looked so tense. He immediately added “No worries. We will go to psychiatrist who will reduce your fear.” She smiled & thanked him. He was so happy that she agreed willingly without any issue. Then she returned back. She didn’t like changes. She kept feeling that Sagar was angry with her when he was smiling whole time. She didn’t like her situation at all. She felt so nervous. After sometime Sagar took her to psychiatrist. He sat outside & Psychiatrist talked with Priti. Psychiatrist afterwards called Sagar inside “Priti suffered this anxiety due to her parents. They kept criticising her. They never said one positive word. I don’t know what is cause or I might say I don’t want to go in that cause. I feel best way is to do counselling & handle it.” Sagar nodded. Then Sagar listened to Psychiatrist with Priti. He needed to handle all too. Slowly he began to move ahead the way Psychiatrist told. Step by step Priti began to get relaxed in house. It was no longer Sagar’s house but it was her house. Priti felt so happy. She didn’t want to do any changes. She even kept few things back to their original position. Sagar was little bit happy but he didn’t comment. She could see it in his eyes. She was so happy. Finally, their married life became happily married life.
The End
