BENEATH HIS WALLS
1. First Night
Janhavi sat on the bed, wearing heavy lehanga and heavy jewellery.
She had returned from her wedding, exhausted, frustrated but still happy that she had married a man whom she liked from the first sight and agreed to this marriage
Just as she was about to stand up and walk to the bathroom to change— *a knock*
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
Come in
*thinking the person as Vinay*
The person stepped inside.
Revealing, it was none other than her mother-in-law, Surekha Malhotra.
Surekha Malhotra (ML's Mother)
Janhavi, come into the Kitchen now.
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
Yes Maa, I'll come after changing–
Surekha Malhotra (ML's Mother)
*cuts her words off*
Janhavi no need to change, okay? Keep this lehanga on.
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*nods*
Okay maa
both walked inside the kitchen.
Janhavi looked around the apartment, the apartment was 2BHK, but today, it was full of Vinay's relatives as the apartment was the "Shaadi ka ghar"
Just as they both entered the kitchen, there were four people including herself, his Sister, Nisha Malhotra, his Dadi, Vaishali Malhotra, and lastly, his mother, with whom she had just entered
Nisha Malhotra (2nd FL)
Bhabhi kya kamal lag rahe ho aap to
(Sis in law you are looking so beautiful)
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
ab hi to dekha na sabne Shaadi main mujhe phir bhi compliment
(you all just saw me at the wedding and now again compliment me)
the three of them started laughing
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
By the way, Why did you call me in the kitchen, Maa?
Nisha Malhotra (2nd FL)
Bhabhi, Aren't you getting so eager to meet bhaiya in the bedroom?
*asks while smirking*
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*playfully hit Nisha in the back*
Surekha Malhotra (ML's Mother)
Ah, yes, for this masala doodh, give him this to drink when you go in the room, now
Vinay was in the guest room with his father and brother, they were convincing him to accept this marriage and accept Janhavi as his wife
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
why don't you both understand?
"what should we understand?"
Amey and his dad said in Unison
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
Amey, your marriage is a love marriage and Papa, your marriage is not successful as you and maa are divorced
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
And don't make me remember what had happened when I was marrying before this marriage
*He adds*
Ajay Malhotra (ML's Father)
We both know that's why we are saying that she is not like other girls, she didn't run away like that girl.
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
I'm leaving
Amey Malhotra (ML's brother)
Bhaiya don't –
*Vinay left from the room*
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*walked to his bedroom, he didn't even bother to talk to the relatives*
After their playful banter, Janhavi walked towards Vinay's room, a glass of Masala Doodh in her hand, now her room also.
(honestly, don't think that he will let her sleep in his room)
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*takes a deep breath and knocks on the room*
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
Come in
*his face in his phone*
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*enters into the room and hands him the glass*
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*raises one brow*
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
Maa told me to give this to you
Vinay Malhotra (ML)

Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*walks towards the door*
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*looks up from his phone*

Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*stares at him in disbelief*
Janhavi opens the wardrobe and takes out a mat from it.
She spreads the mat on the floor and tucks the bedsheet to it
As she was about to lay on it...
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*grabs her wrist and stops her*
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*looks at him*
now what?
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
I was just kidding, are you seriously going to sleep on the floor?
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
What really? I can sleep on the bed?
*excitedly asks*
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*nods*
Yeah
Then Vinay walked to the spread mat on the floor and as he was about to lay on it...
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
No you can't sleep on the floor
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
I can. otherwise Maa will scold me for letting you sleep on the floor.
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
I wake up early everyday. I won't let her know
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*Shrugs nonchalantly and was about to lay on it...*
*Janhavi grabs him by the waist and pushes him on the bed*
Vinay looks at her in shock, while she lays on the spread mat*
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*in mind*
Okay sleep on the floor, I will also pick you up when you are asleep
Janhavi was in a deep sleep. Vinay looks at her, making sure she is asleep
Vinay gets up from the bed and picks her up in his arms and makes her sleep comfortably and puts the blankets on her
Janhavi opens her eyes slowly and looks around the room.
Then realises that, she is on the bed.
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*in mind*
How did I end up on the bed? Did he...nvm. It's impossible.
*looks around to find Vinay, and there he is sleeping on the floor*
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
*in mind*
He picked me up in the night and made me sleep on the bed!! woah! He is such a gentleman.
After overthinking, Janhavi gets up and walks over to Vinay and starts shaking him slightly.
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
Vinay, uthiye please uthiye.
*while shaking him*
(Vinay, Wake up please wake up)
Vinay Malhotra (ML)
*opens his one eye, in sleep and groans lazily*
Aur kya karu uthkar?
(and what should I do after waking?)
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
Phir se so jaiye...bed par.
(Sleep again...on the bed)
Janhavi Malhotra-Desai (FL)
Mujhe ye sametna hai.
(I need to put this mat in the wardrobe)
