Adultery Priya Didi

[shailu4ever]

She didn’t understand it.


She didn’t want to.

Back in the kitchen,

She opened a drawer just to close it again.

In another life

She might have smiled at the idea of Ravi and Sirisha sitting close,

Sipping tea, sharing laughter.

But here… in this life…

She wasn’t smiling.

Priya stood by the window,

her phone still in hand though the call had ended long ago.

The dusk light outside painted the curtains in gold, soft and delicate.

But her mind was anything but calm.

She wasn’t sure what she was feeling.

Sirisha was sweet, truly.

A child, really.

Enthusiastic, full of questions, polite and endearing.

But something about the way her voice had rung from Ravi’s room

Something about that small, shared laughter that echoed down the hall

It unsettled Priya more than she wanted to admit.
