The Cuckold of Anushka's Husband - Story written on a User's Request

[ashuezy2]

Scene 10

It is very late, maybe 3 AM.
Anushka is sleeping deeply. She came home glowing again, and fell asleep fast.
Rajiv is not sleeping.
Her happy, smiling face from earlier... it is burning in his mind.
He looks at her phone charging on the bedside table.

A terrible, sick feeling is in his stomach. He has never, ever checked her phone.
His hands are shaking.
He picks it up. He opens her internet browser.
He sees the history.

‘Hot wife with strong stranger.’ ‘Husband watches boss.’ ‘Indian wife big bull.’

His mind goes blank. He does not understand.
He clicks on one of the videos.
He watches for ten seconds. He sees a man, small and scared, watching.
He sees a big man, and a wife who is... happy.

Rajiv feels like he will be sick.
His heart is pounding. This is filth. This is... Anushka?
He turns to her. His hand is shaking as he grips her shoulder.

Rajiv: (His voice is a harsh whisper) Anushka. Wake up.

Anushka: (She groans, trying to sleep) Mmm... what? Rajiv, leave me...

Rajiv: (He shakes her harder. Violently.) WAKE UP!
Anushka sits up suddenly, her hair wild. She is angry.

Anushka: What is wrong with you! Are you mad?
Rajiv does not speak.
He just holds the phone in front of her face.
The video is still playing. The sounds fill the silent room.

Anushka’s eyes focus on the screen.
Her anger... vanishes.
She does not look ashamed. She does not look guilty.
She just looks... caught.

Anushka: (Her voice is suddenly cold) You went through my phone.

Rajiv: (He is almost crying) What is this, Anushka?

Rajiv: What are you watching?

Anushka: (She pulls the sheet up to cover her 34E chest, her eyes locked on his) You can see what it is.

Rajiv: (He is trembling) This is... disgusting! Sick!

Rajiv: Is this why you are so happy? Is this what your "friends" are?

Anushka: (A small, dangerous smile touches her lips) Give me my phone, Rajiv.

Rajiv: (He pulls it away) No! Tell me! Do you want this?
Anushka just stares at him.
She does not say yes.
She does not say no.

And in that silence, Rajiv finds his answer. He feels his world collapse.

Scene 11

One second passes. The room is dead silent.
The sounds from the video on the phone have stopped.
Rajiv is breathing fast, his hand shaking. He is waiting for her to cry, to say sorry.

Rajiv: (His voice is broken, a whisper) Anu... please. Say something. Tell me this is not true.
Anushka looks at his weak, pained face.
She feels no guilt. She feels... power. A cold, hard power.
She is finished hiding.

Anushka: (Her voice is clear. No fear. No shame.) Yes, Rajiv.
Rajiv flinches, like she has hit him. His eyes are wide with horror.

Anushka: This is what I want.

Anushka: This is my deepest desire.
She leans forward. Her voice is low, but dominant.

Anushka: I know you cannot satisfy me.

Rajiv: (He shakes his head, tears filling his eyes) No... no... Anu... I love you... I...

Anushka: (She laughs, a short, cold sound) Love? Love is not enough for my body, Rajiv.

Anushka: You are a good man. But you are a small man.

Rajiv: (He whispers, crushed) Stop... please...

Anushka: Your stamina is low. Your size is small.

Anushka: I am a woman. I am full... (she gestures to her chest)... I have needs.

Anushka: You cannot meet them. You never have.
She pulls the gown off her body. She is not shy.
She stands up from the bed, naked, in front of him.
She looks like a queen. He looks like a beggar.

Anushka: (She steps forward and takes the phone from his weak hand) I am tired of pretending.

Anushka: I am a woman who knows what she wants.

Anushka: And now... you know too.

Scene 12

Rajiv stares at her. His whole body is shaking.
He looks at her naked body. It is the body he knows.
But the woman standing there... she is a stranger. A cold, powerful stranger.
The humiliation burns him. Small. Low stamina. She said it to his face.
His shock turns to dark, red anger.

Rajiv: (His voice is low and trembling with rage) You... you are sick, Anushka.

Anushka: (She does not flinch. She does not cover herself.) I am honest, Rajiv. For the first time in years.

Rajiv: (He suddenly shouts, pointing a shaking finger at her) Honest? You call this filth honest?

Rajiv: This is disgusting!
He remembers the video on the phone. The weak husband watching.

Rajiv: I am your husband! Not... not some... dog!

Rajiv: This is disrespectful to me! It is disrespectful to our marriage!

Anushka: (Her voice is calm. It makes him even angrier.) Our marriage? What marriage, Rajiv?

Anushka: The marriage where I lie awake aching every night?

Anushka: The marriage where you finish in one minute and say 'Sorry, jaan'?

Rajiv: (He covers his ears, like he cannot hear the truth) Stop it! Stop it!

Rajiv: I will never do this! Do you hear me? NEVER!

Rajiv: You want me to... to find someone for you? You want me to watch?

Rajiv: (He spits the words out) It is perverted!
He is breathing hard. He expects her to cry, to apologize.
But Anushka just looks at him with... pity.

Anushka: (She sighs and walks calmly to the cupboard to get her nightgown) I knew you would say this.

Anushka: You are too weak even for my fantasy.

Rajiv: I am NOT weak! I am a normal man!

Rajiv: This conversation is over. This... madness... is over!
Anushka slips the nightgown over her head.
She looks at him, her eyes cold.

Anushka: (Her voice is final) No, Rajiv.
Anushka: It is just beginning.
