Bloody fingers

PARI'S POV:

"No, buts. I asked a simple thing, propose to me!" He grinned ear to ear.

" You know? Now you are evil!" I whined.

" I am not! Am I ?"

" Yes, you are!" He is cute however he is. Cute while he is caring, while angry and every time. I sighed mentally I found him cute always.

" You don't find him hot?" My inner self asked.

" Yes, he is. Always cute and hot!" I grinned at the thought.

" How can it be? Hot and cute? Choose one either " My inner self said again.

" I find hot and cute! You better shut, I need to admire him" I retorted back.

God! Did I again speak with no one?

" Nope, you spoke it loudly. So yeah, even I heard it!" He smirked at me.

I facepalmed, I just embarrassed myself and I know he will keep telling it till my grandchildren turn old. Wait! Will I be living till my grandchild turns old?

I questioned myself.

" We will first think about our daughter and son then, think about grandchildren. Okay? Now go complete the task not wasting the time, you already wasted 10 mins!"

What?! did I speak out loud? Again?

I voiced out my thoughts.

" Yes, you did! Did anyone tell you that?"

" What?" I frowned.

" You becoming mad, lately." He laughed.

" Yuvi! You are so bad!" I whined.

" 19 minutes more!" He said and sat on the bed, started scrolling his phone.

" You and your task! Weirdos!" I stomped, took a robe from the closet, and came out of the room.

I am glad he took it sportively, I know it earlier even. But still, the fault was mine so was a little scared. But when he said the punishment, I know he just wants to play with me so I can play along.

I already have the gift that I bought for him and about flowers, we do my mother in law has a big yard at the back. She has many flowers and some ornamental plants, so I will just tie them together.

God! Why are you showing such a partiality with me?

Only I proposed to him, he is not proposing to me. This is so cruel.

" Didn't he propose to you on your birthday?" My inner self asked.

"Yes, but it was my birthday so," I tried hanging on my words.

" So what you proposed him on his birthday too, so that doesn't account into a proposal?"

" You are my inner self or his? Shit! Why did even keep speaking with you? Get lost!" I cleared my mind and walked to the side stairs so that no can see me, going out.

I took my mobile if in case I need to use the mobile flash, but the twinkling lights made my work easier.

I went saw the area where the flowers were planted, to my disappointment there were only fewer roses. Maybe somebody would have picked for decoration work. I thought to myself and saw whether if there were any other flowers luckily I found some zinnias so plucked both of them.

Mom had many flowers but now only these two were available. I plucked some magenta cabbage roses and mixed them with purple-pink zinnias. It was not perfect but was good.

Now to tie them I need some satin ribbons, then I remembered my gift it had the ribbon tied with it but the packing was good even without the ribbon so I can borrow from it. Hehe!

I kept the flowers in his office and sneaked into the room he was in the restroom, so I took the gift from my backpack and came out before he comes out. Gladly it was a baby-pink ribbon it suited the flowers very well. After tying them together I took my gift and bouquet and went to our room. I knocked on the door and waited for him to respond.

But instead, the god himself opened the door. I grinned at him, he still was smirking. How much I want to wipe that idiotic smirk from his face.

" Hello! Will you let me in?" I am glad I was not caught by any of the relatives and especially this Karthick and Deepthi. I didn't see them since I came home.

" Sure, come in!" He grinned like an idiot mirroring my face.

" Hehe!" I showed my teeth. Though it's not my first time still I am nervous for the moment.

He let me in and walked in and stood in front of me, his hands folded to his chest.

" Start!" He grinned.

" I know!" I said. My hands were at my back hiding the things from him.

" Yuvi! You know. How much I love you!

To that much where I couldn't express it in words.

You are special to me like how

Pen and paper are,

like tom and jerry,

like rain and water,

like blood and skin,

like left and right,

like shoe and shocks,

like sweet and salt,

like bread and jam,

like french fries and ketchup,

and finally, like chicken and me.

I know sometimes, no many times I behave like a teenager who has some problem with her parent. But what to do, your bad luck (sigh) you married me so you have to adjust it. Which you are doing already! ( Chuckle) Yuvi if I ever do something that hurts you, I am sorry. I never want to see you hurt especially with me as the reason. I know, I am making your life a mess too. But, remember there is no day I could ever get away from you. Please bear me for the life. I love you! I love you more than the stars that exist in the clear night sky!" I said this on my knees the flowers in my hand.

As soon as I finished the line, he tugged me up to his chest and hugged me.

" You are more special to me than I am to you! You never was a problem for me and never will be. With you, in my life, I feel like I am living in an adventure novel. Every day a new thing that makes my life more interesting than ever it was! Without you in my life never I would be like this! A happy Yuvi! Thank you for everything! Never was I unlucky after you came into my life! I love you! I just wanted to play with you but see..." He said and pecked my forehead.

I too thought it would end up in a comedy but it was...

" What you got me? And how? I know flowers from our garden, might be?" He changed the topic.

" Yes, flowers from the garden and this I bought while returning to coax you" I giggled in his chest.

" You are a temptation, arent you?" He chuckled, his chuckle caused a comfortable vibration in his chest.

" I am! Only for you!"

" Yeah. Only for me!" He pinched my cheeks.

" See what's in it," I said to him to open.

" Wow! This is cool, I love it. Thank you!" He hugged me once more and kissed my crown.

I got him a watch, it was a special edition.

" Yuvi, let's sleep? I am really tired!" I stretched my hands and my back.

" Yeah, sure. I made you run more" He said in an apologetic tone.

" You know! That's really fine, I deserved it!"

" Whatever! Let's get you into bed!" He said and dragged to the bed.

When we were about to lay down, thud!!

I door burst open to reveal Deepthi standing there panting.

" Hey! What happened did you had a race or what?"

" Pari, it's no time to joke. There is something very serious!" Her voice laced out the seriousness of the matter.

" What happened?" I walked towards her.

" There in the back yard..."

" In the back yard?"

" There is a cardboard box it is...It is"

" It is? Come on tell it!"

" It is soaked with blood!"

" What?"

" Yeah! I went there talking with my friend on the phone, my legs hit something when I saw what it was there was a box soaked with blood" As soon as she finished I ran down to see what it is.

They both came running behind me, I used my flashlight to see it clearly.

" Did you touch it?" I know she wouldn't but still,.

" Nope!"

" Handkerchief?" I asked Deepthi knowing that she would be carrying it around.

" Yeah! I have" She gave it.

" You go stand near the door Deepu don't let anyone here if they ask why, tell them that you saw a snake"

" Okay!" She went there to stand near the door.

Yuvi stood there flashing the light.

" You want to see it?"

" It's okay open it!"

I opened it slowly, it was sealed with tapes. I didn't touch as it might have a fingerprint.

I used the kerchief to avoid my contact with the box.

Yuvi gasped seeing what's in it.

There were 10 chopped human fingers soaked with blood.

" What is this?" Yuvi asked.

" Human fingers, it was not there when I came here so it's here after I went I think! "

" Yuvi, wait her don't touch anything, and don't let anyone get to know about this. I will go check the CCTV of the back gate.

" Okay!" I ran to the security room.

There was only one. I sat there and played CCTV.

I thought it would be crashed too but, thank god it was available.

I played it. A man in black clothes fully covered came and kept it. And his guts he waved at the camera, we don't have any building in the back so it's tough again. I sighed and called Francis.

" Francis I need you to be here at my house with the forensic team...." I said about the happening.

I walked to the garden again.

My phone pinged a message.

<<

I would never let you to live peacefully! :)

>>

I know this is not the stalker now whom?

God! Ughh!

I have to finish it before morning before it gets into the ears of somebody.

When I reached the garden Karthick was standing with Yuvi. I decided not to reveal the message.

" Called the team!" I said to Karthick, he just nodded.

He didn't ask questions? Then it means I have a long questionnaire with him.
