===========================================================
COPIED FROM AN OLD EXBII POST AND EDITED
---------------------------------------------------
Manisha and I have been married nearly two years and everything was great. One morning we were just waking up when Manisha said that she had strange dream. I asked her about it and she said that she dreamed about someone from work. That caught my attention. I asked, "You mean a guy? Is it somebody you know?" "It was a guy from work. I don't really know him; he is just someone I see at the office occasionally."Even through my sleepy eyes I could see Manisha was blushing. "And what were you up to in the dream." She said, "Nothing, just talking ...I don't remember much..." "What's his name?" "Rohit Sinha." I could see that Manisha didn't want to say more so I teased her a little. "Did you ever dream of him before?" "No. That's what made it so strange." I teased her for a little while longer then I got into the shower. By the time I finished my breakfast I had pushed Manisha's dream out of my mind and replaced it with thoughts about work. The subject of Manisha's dream didn't come up again until several days later. I was having lunch with Ritesh Sen, a buyer for one of the studios I service. Ritesh is quite the ladies man. It seems like he is always talking about a new woman in his life. That day at lunch Ritesh started to tell me about a dream he had. When he finished I mentioned about my wife's dream expecting to get a laugh out of it. When I finished the story Ritesh said, "You better keep an eye on her."
I asked what he meant and he said, "When I have a dream about someone it's because I am sexually attracted to that person. Every time I wake up after a dream like that I can't get the person in the dream out of my mind. I think that is probably true for anyone including your wife."
I was getting a little angry with Ritesh. I didn't like him talking about Manisha that way, but I felt a certain truth in what he said. I have had dreams like that and I know when I wake up I can't get the person out of my head for a while. As I got up from the table to go back to work Ritesh said, "Remember what I said, she wants him. That's why she dreamed about him. You better keep an eye on her." That pissed me off. I said, "Manisha's not like that. She would never cheat on me."
"I hope you're right," he replied. When I got back to my office I kept thinking about what Ritesh had said. I couldn't believe that Manisha would be sexually interested in another man. But if she wasn't interested why did she dream about him? Then the answer hit me. The times I had dreams like that I would wake up aroused by the dream, but I never pursued any of the girls I dreamed about. Usually once I was fully awake I would forget about dream. I decided that this was the case with Manisha. That evening as I was with Manisha watching TV, I suddenly thought of her dream. I looked at her face and asked her, "Have you had any more nasty dreams lately?" Manisha looked puzzled. "What nasty dreams?" "Like the one you had about Rohit Sinha." "What? Are you still thinking about that? I had forgotten all about it. No, I haven't had any more dreams about. Anyway there was nothing nasty about it. Why do you ask?" "Just curious. What does Rohit Sinha look like?" "Oh I get it. You're jealous. Well you don't have anything to be jealous about. I have no interest in Rohit Sinha." "Well, why do you think you dreamed about him?" "You know what dreams are like. There are lots of times I see people in a dream and when I wake up I can't figure out why I dreamed about them." Manisha kissed me and said, "You don't have anything to worry about. You know I would never cheat on you. If you really want to know, Rohit is in his forties, he's shorter than me, and he weighs about 170 pounds and is slightly balding. He is not my type at all."
I felt much better. Not just because Rohit Sinha wasn't an Adonis, but because Manisha never had lied to me and if she promised that she would never cheat on me, I believed her. I was able to put the whole thing out on my mind for the next couple of weeks. That's when Manisha got her own office. Manisha called me from work to tell me the good news and insisted that we go out to dinner to celebrate. She told me to come over to see her new office then we would go out to dinner. Although I had been in Manisha's building many times over the last few years I had never been on the fifth floor where her new office was located. When I got off of the elevator I was in the center of a large open area filled cubicles made with modular furniture. The walls of the cubicles were about five feet high so you couldn't see who was in them. The managers and supervisors offices were along the outside walls of the building. Manisha's new office was in the back right hand side of the building next to the corner office. As I walked down a passage way between rows of cubicles one of the name tags caught my eye. I wasn't consciously looking at the name tags but Rohit Sinha's name just jumped out at me. I backed up and looked in at the man sitting the cubicle. He had his back to me and was on the phone. Although I didn't want him to turn around and see me I couldn't seem to make myself move and before I could recover my composure he put the phone down, glanced up and asked if he could help me. I stammered for a second and managed to say, "I just saw the name Rohit Sinha on the name tag here," while I pointed at the tag next to the opening to the cubicle. "I went to college with a Rohit Sinha. You obviously are not the Rohit Sinha I knew. Is this your cube?" "Yea, I'm Rohit Sinha. There's probably a lot of Rohit Sinhas' and I'm the one you don't know." He did not bother to look up while he answered my question, clearly showing that he didn't care much. I was very disturbed as I walked away for Sinha's cubicle. He was six feet tall, very athletic looking, had a full head of dark hair and couldn't be much more than 30 years old. When I got to Manisha's office I was confused and a little angry. Manisha had lied when she described Rohit to me. Now I was going to have to find out why. When I walked into her office I lost most of my anger. Manisha was genuinely happy to see me and I just couldn't stay mad. She was so excited about her promotion and her new office. She said, "Look, come here and look at this." She was pointing at the window behind her desk. Then she opened the blinds revealing a great view of of the city. "What do you think of that?" Her excitement was contagious. I told her I thought it was a great view and that I was very proud of her. Then I sat in one of the chairs in front of her desk and she told me about her new duties and how much more she would be making. After twenty minutes of chit chat we left to go to dinner. As we started down on the elevator I casually mentioned that I had seen Rohit Sinha. Manisha caught my meaning immediately and she actually laughed. She said, "I guess he didn't look like I described him did he?" "Not exactly." "You know why, don't you?" "I guess so. You thought I would be jealous so you wanted to put my mind at ease." "Well, what would you have thought if I described him as he really is?" "I guess I see your point." And I did. Manisha's demeanor told me that she had nothing to hide and I should stop worrying about Rohit Sinha except that I owed it to myself to be rude to him if I ever got the chance. The rest of the evening was very pleasant and we ended the night by making love slowly. A few days later I was having a business lunch with Ritesh Sen and Sheetal Chopra. After we had completed our business we sat talking over coffee. Out of the blue Ritesh asked, "What ever happened with your wife and that guy she had the dream about?"
Before I could respond Sheetal had jumped into the conversation, "What this about? It sounds juicy." I said, "Nothing happened." Sheetal looked disappointed and asked, "What kind of dream?"
I was going to say it was nothing and leave it at that but Ritesh quickly told Sheetal the whole story. Sheetal seemed to really enjoy listening to the story and when Ritesh was done Sheetal turned to me an asked, "And you don't think there is a problem with this man?" I knew that Sheetal didn't mean any disrespect for me or Manisha, she just saw this as an interesting story and she wanted to know more. So thinking that none of this was important I told them about how Manisha had described Sinha as a short chubby bald man and that I had seen him and he turned out to be a tall handsome man with a full head of hair and an athletic body. Then I told them that Manisha told me why she lied about him. When I was done Ritesh smiled and said, "You can't be that foolish. Your wife lies about what this guy looks like and that doesn't bother you? You need to find out what is really going on here?" I said, "There's nothing going on. Manisha doesn't know this guy and I am sure if she ever met him she wouldn't like him." Ritesh asked, "How can you know that?" I was getting annoyed with Ritesh again, "I know because I know Manisha." As I was staring at Ritesh I heard Sheetal say something but wasn't sure what. I turned and asked him what he said. Sheetal said, "I said that you should get your wife and this guy together and watch how the act around each other." I said, "There would be nothing to watch because there is nothing to see and even if my wife was interested in this guy, she sure as hell wouldn't do anything with me around." "Well, then you shouldn't be around." Ritesh responded.
Then Sheetal said, "Right. You need to get then together somewhere that you can watch them without them knowing." I was getting pissed now. "I don't need to spy on my wife because there is nothing to spy on."
Sheetal and Ritesh backed off after that, Ritesh said, "You know best, it's your marriage." That was the end of the conversation. As I drove back to my office I thought about what Ritesh and Sheetal had said to me and although I didn't agree with their assessment of the situation I was curious about how Manisha would act if she was in a social situation with Sinha and I wasn't there. I didn't know how I could make that happen so I put it out of my mind. Actually the opportunity happened without any help from me. About a week after my meeting with Ritesh and Sheetal, Manisha told me that her company was having a dinner party at a hotel. The dinner was for employees and spouses or significant others. The dinner was the following Wednesday evening. I realized that this party gave me an opportunity to observe Manisha and Sinha in a social situation without either of them knowing I was watching. So at five o'clock I called Manisha and told her that I had some people coming late to pick up orders and I wouldn't get to the dinner party until eight o'clock. Manisha said, "That's okay. We are supposed to go in for dinner at eight. We'll be socializing and having drinks from 6:30 until eight. I got to the hotel around 6:45 and found that the reception before dinner was in one of the hotel meeting rooms so I headed back to the room. I found a place where I peek in a side door to the meeting room and see in without being seen by anyone in the room. It took a few minutes to spot Manisha. She was standing with some of her friends from work. Manisha had a drink in her hand and she was talking and laughing. As I watched her it struck me how beautiful she was and how much I loved her. I continued staring at her for a while then turned my attention to finding Rohit Sinha. I spotted him on the other side of the room talking to a couple of attractive women. In spite of the fact that I was sure that Manisha wasn't interested in Sinha I was relieved to see that they were not talking. As I continued watching him, Rohit Sinha turned away from the women he was talking to and headed across the room toward Manisha. I felt a sudden knot in my stomach as I followed his progress across the room. He passed no closer than ten feet from Manisha and never looked in her direction and Manisha never stopped the conversation she was having. Rohit continued on to the bar, took three drinks and walked back to join the women he had been talking. I felt very foolish, especially when there was obviously nothing to see. I gave up my post and walked back around to the main door to the reception and went in and joined Manisha. A few nights later I stopped after work to have a beer with Ritesh and as we were talking Sheetal came in and sat with us. We were on our third beer when Ritesh teased me saying, "So I guess everything is good on the home front?" I said, "Things are great." Then like an idiot I told them about spying on Manisha at the party. I somehow thought that when I told them how Manisha never even looked at Sinha and it was quite obvious that she had no interest in him that Ritesh and Sheetal would realize that Manisha was never going to have anything to do with Sinha. I was wrong. Ritesh said, "That doesn't prove anything. It was a company party right? And you wife was with her friends. She couldn't very well flirt with Rohit Sinha in front of her peers and then innocently sit down to dinner with you. That would cause all kinds of problems for her at work." Sheetal added, "Just think of the gossip that would generate." That thought appealed to Sheetal. Ritesh said, "The fact that your wife dreamed about this guy doesn't mean that there is anything going between them." That was the first positive thing Ritesh had said and I told him I agreed with him. But them he continued, "The dream just means that she is sexually attracted to him. Because she loves you she would never approach Rohit Sinha but watch out if he ever starts coming on to her." I said, "God dam it! Manisha is not attracted to that asshole and it doesn't matter if he comes on to her or not, she would never have anything to do with him.
Ritesh said, "Take it easy, we’re just teasing you. You're probably right. But then again how will you ever know for sure?" Sheetal cleared his throat and said, "Well you know, there is a way he could find out what would happen. I mean find out what would happen if Rohit Sinha did hit on Manisha." By this time we were on our fifth round of drinks and I was just drunk enough to seriously listen to Sheetal's idea when I should have just gone home. "How would I do that?"
Sheetal looked at Ritesh then back at me as though we were about to get involved in a conspiracy and spoke softly so no one else could hear. "All you have to do is make Rohit Sinha think that Manisha has the hots for him. Unless he is gay, he will go after your sexy wife." "What am I supposed to do, walk up to him and say 'My wife has the hots for you.'?" I responded sarcastically. (END OF PART1)
