Adultery Priya Didi

[shailu4ever]

Sleeves casually pushed up to her elbows.


Her skin was flawless and luminous against the soft light.

That milky fairness that seemed untouched by sun or city or time.

Ravi had seen beautiful women before. 

But this was something else.

There was a poise to her.

A calm that didn’t try to impress.

She wasn’t seeking attention.

And maybe that’s what made it impossible to look away.

She noticed him then, and looked up.

“Good morning,” she said, her voice soft but clear.

A tone that felt like it knew you already, even if it didn’t.

“Morning,” Ravi replied.

His throat was dry. “Something smells amazing.”

“I made upma. And coffee. Hungry?”

“Always.”  He meant some other hunger...


She gave a small, quick smile

Then turned back toward the kitchen.

That braid swayed lightly as she walked

Ravi’s eyes followed it until she disappeared behind the fridge door.

He exhaled.

Silently.

Grateful he didn’t speak that thought aloud.
