EPISODE 39
“So how was my performance Wifey?” Markus
asked as soon as they entered the car.
“Worst.” Kizy said nonchalantly.
“It was definitely better than your idiotic acting.”
Markus retorted.
“Yeah yeah a lot better!! Even having a love rival
in between who asked me to stay away from
you.” Kizy said sarcastically before moving
away from Markus.
“Jealous?” Markus said curiously.
“As if I care.” Kizy continued with her
nonchalant attitude.
“By the way, did you say ‘love rival’? Does that
mean you love me?” Markus asked..
“You and love? Don’t you think these two words
are polar opposites of each other.” Kizy replied.
“Opposites attract each other.” Markus
continued.
“Lame.” Kizy said with disdain.
Markus kept teasing her, but Kizy continuously
ignored him, which irritated Markus to no end.
“Why are you ignoring me?” Markus questioned
which was answered by silence.
“Are you angry?” Markus asked once again and
finally Kizy snapped.
“No, why would I be angry? Isn’t it normal to
have some random woman who loves your
husband, call you cheap while your husband
sits and enjoys it with the audience!! That’s
perfectly normal right?” Kizy said.
“Why were you silent then? You could have
argued then and there with her.” Markus asked
seriously.
“Because I don’t even know what relation you
have with her. I don’t want to create more mess
and remain indebted to you. Alas I am just a
forcefully wedded wife who is always detested
by her husband and knows nothing about him.
So by what right am I supposed to fight with
someone important to you?” Kizy said.
“And who said that she is important while you
aren’t?” Markus questioned.
“Markus, I have known you for years now. You
never tolerate even a single word spoken
against you. Yet you were patiently listening to
all the things she had to say. What else do I
need to know to understand her importance?”
Kizy answered.
“Her family has been our allies for the past three
generations now. Even when I am pissed at her,
I have to keep our partnership in mind before
reacting. And if not for her calling you cheap, I
wasn’t intending to do anything. But just
because she insulted you, I threatened her dad.
Is that not enough to make you understand your
importance?” Markus asked.
“Then what about the engagement part?” Kizy
asked curiously.
“As I said, our families had been partners for
three generations now. But in our generation,
they only had a single girl child. Thus her
grandfather had once proposed to my grandpa
to get us engaged.
I was only ten at that time, yet I had rejected the
proposal. But as she grew up, she kept clinging
on to me, and kept doing stupid stuffs to
propose me in different ways. And I have
rejected her time and time again.
So you see, I have never indulged her in any
stupid fantasies, it is completely her own
wishful thinking. The engagement was never
discussed again, but she is stubbornly sticking
to that one proposal for the past fifteen years.”
Markus explained.
Unknown to Markus himself, he had explained
something patiently to someone for the first
time. He was not the one to speak much.
Even when announcing their relationship, he
had not used a single lovey-dovey word and
went straight to the point. Yet now he had
explained himself with all the details to Kizy,
which was not his usual self.
“Oh so that’s the story. But to be honest, did you
ever think that you should accept her? I mean
she is beautiful, has a powerful background and
is loyal to you.” Kizy asked.
“Honestly I have never thought of her this way.
Though she is better than you in all aspects, I- ”
Markus was still speaking when Kizy
interrupted.
“I never said she is better than me! I am
definitely much more beautiful than her, as for
powers, I am sure she could never compete with
me, even if she was to die and be reborn. As for
loyalty, isn’t protecting someone with your life
being more loyal than idiotically clinging to
them for their entire lives?” Kizy said
sarcastically.
“Little lamb, are you jealous?” Markus asked.
“You are the one who is jealous.” Kizy puffed up
her cheeks before ignoring him again.
Markus laughed loudly at her puffed cheeks
and stopped teasing her.
The next few days were literally spent on
feeding entire Country B with dog food. The
couple would be seen together everywhere, in
restaurants, on the beach, visiting adventure
parks, watching movies in theatres.. the list was
endless.
And for the first time in history, Markus had
opened a social media account which he only
used for their PDA!! He would post their photos
everyday with just a word or two, but that was
enough to make anyone go green from envy.
Initially people were excited to see their male
god on social media, but as time passed, even
the people who were having great relationships
felt as if they were single dogs.
Today Markus was attending a charity function,
wearing a black formal suit while Kizy wearing
a black gown was seen accompanying him.
In short they represented what a match made in
heaven looked like. Though the internal story
was entirely different.
The program was about to end with the last
item remaining to get a bid. The last item but
also the attraction for tonight’s charity event
was a diamond crown.
It belonged to a queen from the fourteenth
century who was known for her fierceness. She
had won a war and protected their kingdom
with a mere army of hundred soldiers when the
king was away to battle the enemy.
But the queen had a mysterious death and no
one knew the exact reason behind it.
And suddenly this crown was discovered by a
diver two years ago in the deep sea, attracting
attention from every corner of the world,
resulting in this crown landing up here for
auctioning.
“The bidding starts from 2 million.” Announcer
who had already described the crown with great
enthusiasm now started with the bid.
“2.5 million.”
“2.8 million.”
“3 million.”
“3.5 million.”
“5 million.” Suddenly someone shouted from the
crowd.
Instantly the crowd became silent, intending to
look at the fool who had raised the price this
much.
But they were all shocked after knowing the
identity of this person.
