It’s strange walking with Neeti like this. Things were not like this with Vaishali. We would walk together holding hands, sometimes I would keep my hand on her waist and she would rest her head on my shoulder. We used to enjoy going for walks late in the evening. I can’t imagine that level of comfort with Neeti. She is so conscious of the surroundings and somehow distant. This one time I took her to a cake shop and bought her favorite choco-chip cake for her. When we were waiting for the cake to be put into a box for us I casually put my arm around her waist. She jumped away from me, looked around and then glared at me as if I had committed a crime or something. It's not like I was trying to make out with her in the middle of the street! She is just so annoying sometimes! Why should I care though? I didn’t marry her because I necessarily wanted a wife. I simply married her because my parents needed a daughter-in-law.
