Adultery Antarvasana: The Forbidden Fire – *** Varnika's First Surrender ***

[shailu4ever]

Shruti laughed under her breath. “So I’m right?”


Madhavi didn’t answer directly.

Instead, she dropped in the tea leaves, the aroma rising instantly.

Then, softly, she said,

“Some people… need a little light around them before others notice how warm they really are.”

Shruti blinked.

Madhavi looked at her, fully now.

“He’s not loud. Not flashy. But he’s real. And rare.”

She stirred the tea once, gently. “So yes… maybe I showed you where to look.”

Shruti’s voice lowered slightly. “You two have something?”

Madhavi’s lips curled into a half-smile-neither denial nor confession.

“He and I… understand each other.”

Shruti didn’t push further.

She just watched her, more intrigued than before.

Madhavi poured the bubbling tea into the strainer.

Then she added, almost as an afterthought

“If he smiles more tonight… that would make me happy.”

Shruti took the cup handed to her.

Warm.

Fragrant.

And suddenly far more layered than just chai.

She looked at Madhavi and said softly, “You’re… different.”

Madhavi sipped her own tea, eyes steady.

“Good different or scary different?”

Shruti smiled. “Both.”

They walked out together.

And Shruti sat a little closer to Abhi this time.
