Lull before the storm?

Everybody was congratulating them today for successfully completing 10 years and they were considered the best couple amongst their friends.
Best couple! Ahhhh!
They had started their life together by choice! Theirs was a love marriage and a happy one too!
But these days something was amiss. Krutika wasn’t sure what!
She didn’t have any complaints towards her husband and they had great kids too. Everything was picture perfect.
But again, something was missing!
She was trying to sort things out when her mobile rang and she saw an unknown number. She picked it up wondering who it could be!
She was in for a pleasant surprise. It was Dhruv! It was about a year since she last talked to him. Both of them had got quite busy in their respective lives that they had not been able to keep in touch.
Her heart warmed at talking to her long lost friend. And this time they promised to keep in touch.
And keep in touch they did!
It had now become customary to talk or sms or chat at least once a day!
Initially this was only to keep in touch and be friends, but as time passed the things changed.
Now, Krutika would look forward to this chitchat or at least a sms. She would get irritated if she didn’t talk to Dhruv once a day. A single sms would put a smile on her already pretty face and make it even more beautiful.
No, she never wavered from her duties as a wife or a mother. And she still loved her husband from the bottom of her heart. She never ever thought of cheating on her husband….In fact, she felt that the zest was back in her married life too!
But at the same time she longed to talk to Dhruv, to know more about his day, his life…
This was not an extra marital affair nor was this just a friendship.
Then what was it?
She didn’t have the answer and right now she was not willing to find it out either.

The toughest thing on the earth is to understand human emotions. Relationships are names given to some of them, and they are just a small part of what it is.
So it is not always possible to understand every bit of our feelings. We understand something so easily, some of them take a life’s time and some remain still a mystery.

Hey i’ve been through the same thing..
Mostly its just addiction, u get so used to talking to the person everyday, that the attachment increases, and u want that satisfaction everyday.. Your day stays incomplete if u dont get it.. This kind of a relationship cant be defined.. It cant be called love or friendship.. Its not wrong either. Dunno what it is !! Do we need to know? I agree with Nikhil when he said she should just go with the flow.
Nice post again.. 🙂
Take care..

Hmmmmm…..
She is tired of a perfect life and may be this is a way to prove herself that she can do something which is not her real self & may be is a bit imprefect too.
But I strongly believe that it will be a pure friendship only because it is entirely possible as against the general myth.

//I don’t think today’s generation is so narrow minded // although they claim, they are not, they are !!!!.
Do you remember a recent case of a software engg (around 30yrs old) killing his wife and then suicided? In blore.
He suspected his wife of infidelity with a colleague of hers. Well we don’t know if he was right, but still the case threw shockwaves among the young ppl around here.

May be she can start blogging, if she doesn’t do that already. 😉 hahaha… j/k…
May be Krutika should take a class to learn something new… like pottery, painting, or anything else she likes that will make the oh-so-exciting-perfect life little different. This is not the right way to get rid of boredom. I mean if she continues this, how will it end? It has to end some day else the ship’s gonna get into bad shape when the storm comes.
Don’t know yaar, but why would a special friedship sink a ship!

very nice story..
I agree with mahak that we all have soulmates.. & not necessarily marry them… they could be friends throught our lives… & that soulmate can be of same sex too…. few relationships just dont have a name as they do not fall into the society-driven categories… but they r beatiful & fulfilling all the same… they make ur life whole…

Quite a quandary! I think she should just go with the flow! 😀
I think she likes Dhruv better only because he brings something different than what her husband does. Being with him for so long, she’s probably used to all his pick-up lines and all his jokes and knows him inside out… She’s just looking for a change… No, she shouldn’t go and sleep with Dhruv, just go out, have a coffee, meet for lunch, etc. Because if Dhruv is half a decent guy, he’d treat her with some deference because she’s married! 😀
