Siva - Gayatri Raj

[venkujkc1984]

10. Raj’s first attempt

It was Sunday again. Raj had been invited for lunch, just like last week. He arrived around 11 a.m. and rang the bell. Siva welcomed him in, and the two settled in the hall, chatting casually. Gayatri was in the kitchen, busy preparing lunch.

Soon, the delicious meal was served. They all ate together, and by the time lunch was over, a cricket match had begun on TV. The three of them—Raj, Siva, and Gayatri—sat in the hall watching it. But Raj’s mind wasn’t on the game. His eyes kept drifting toward Gayatri. Her beauty had a pull he couldn’t resist. She noticed his gaze, his growing restlessness, and the silence in his smile.

After a while, Gayatri stood up. “You two keep watching. I’ve got some things to do in the kitchen,” she said, leaving the room.

Not long after, Siva remembered something he had to pick up and quickly stepped out, saying he’d be back soon. Now Raj was alone in the hall with little Chintu, who was busy with his toys. Sensing the moment, Raj felt a sudden urge to follow his heart.

He quietly stepped into the kitchen. Gayatri was preparing evening snacks, her focus on the stove. Her saree was wrapped neatly around her waist, but part of her midriff was exposed—just enough for Raj to catch a glimpse of her navel. The sight stirred something deep in him.

Gayatri noticed him standing nearby. “Not watching the match?” she asked, glancing at him with curiosity.

Raj smiled, his eyes twinkling. “You told me to keep watching... so I came here to do just that,” he replied playfully, his gaze lowering toward her waist.

Gayatri adjusted her saree slightly and raised her eyebrows. “Come on, Raj. I meant the match on TV.”

“Oh,” Raj said with a mischievous grin, “I thought you meant I should keep watching what I really wanted to see.”

She gave him a teasing smile. “And what is that, exactly? If not cricket?”

With a chuckle, he replied, “I wasn’t watching the match... I was watching my heroine.”

She played along. “Oh really? Who is this lucky heroine? Is she a player or a spectator?”

“She’s a silent spectator for now,” he said, stepping a little closer. “But if she agrees, she could be the perfect opponent in a very exciting match… a private one.”

Gayatri understood the double meaning instantly. She met his gaze, her expression half-amused, half-curious. “And how is she supposed to know what match you want her to join?”

Raj felt his heartbeat quicken. He paused, took a breath, and moved a step closer. “I thought of a way,” he said softly, voice thick with emotion. “A way to tell her everything... without words.”

Raj felt his heart race as he took a slow, determined step closer. In a soft, trembling voice heavy with emotion, he murmured, “I have a way—a way to show everything without words.” Gently, he knelt down, carefully shifting her saree to reveal the delicate curve of her navel, and tenderly pressed his finger against it for which she moaned “issshhh….” and She grew a bit upset and pushed him away, saying, "Hey Raj, what are you doing? Aren't you ashamed to act like this with your friend's wife? You call me Bhabhi and then do this?"

Raj, undeterred, replied boldly, "Bhabhi, I've been thinking about you ever since I first saw you—it took so long to reach this moment. Please, I want my heroine to make my dream come true. Didn't I tell you last week that you'd learn the truth about my intentions?"

She snapped, "Raj, are you out of your mind? I am your friend's wife, and your request is too much. I thought you were just flirting casually. Please, leave the kitchen."

Still persistent, he pleaded, "Please, Bhabhi, just this once—I promise no one will know. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."

She responded firmly, "Raj, please don't talk like that. I am married and have a child—I am your friend's wife."

Then he said “That makes you more sexy bhabhi, please bhabhi, please bless me.” She was just pleading with him to go out of the kitchen and he was just persistent to touch her. Just then the doorbell rang and he hurried back to the hall and sat on the sofa. Siva came back and kept the items in the kitchen and came back to the hall to watch the match. Raj was pretending to be interested in the match. But his whole focus was Gayatri.

But finally Raj was happy that he had pulled up the courage to at least do something. And now it was just to convince her to accomplish his dreams. It was some while they were watching the match but Gayatri was still in the kitchen. Raj dared again, with Siva present in the hall to take some bold steps. He went into the kitchen pretending to have some water. Just when he entered the kitchen Gayatri looked into his eyes as if requesting not to take any bold step. But he was kind of determined. He took a fork and went to her and removed her saree from over her navel and inserted the fork into her navel. Her navel was shivering indicating she was getting tempted. But her eyes were requesting, and she is looking angry to remove the fork from her navel.

He started rotating the fork in her navel and then she moaned very silently “hhhhaaaa…. Raj pleaseeee…” and nodded her head to indicate to remove it from her navel. 

He removed the fork and started tasting it and he whispered in her ears “wow its sweet Bhabhi and you know it's almost half-inch deep… very beautiful…” she was kind of scared a little bit with his actions. And he was thinking it was because of the presence of Siva that she was not opening.

But now he was confident he could reach his goal sooner or later. He thought he could have Gayatri’s beauty soon. 

He came back to the hall and started watching the match. 

After some time the first half of the match was done and it was dinner time. They all sat on the dining table and Gayatri was getting all the items onto the table. She started serving the food and when she was serving Raj, 

She was very cautious to cover her saree. Seeing that he gave a naughty smile and winked at her. But she moved her face away from him. Then he asked her “Bhabhi, Can you please get me a fork. The same one I used just now” She was kind of shocked when he asked for the fork.

She went into the kitchen and got a fork. While she was getting the fork, he was just looking at her navel and she was extra cautious to hide it. It was just going funny. She was barely speaking all the time since he touched her navel. They finished their dinner and came back to watch the match. The second half started and they all were sitting in the hall. 

Every now and then Raj was seeing Gayatri and every time he was looking at her, she was checking herself. During a break, Siva said “hey Raj, I might need some help from you. Next weekend…It's Chintu’s birthday. And need your help in arranging for the party…” to which Raj quickly accepted. Thinking that it was a very good opportunity.

Raj said “sure Bhayya with pleasure. Just let me know what to do.” 

He said “maybe sometime this week. Need to get items for the party. And since next week is kind of tight for me in the office, Can you please help your bhabhi in getting the items” for that he said “why not..” And then Siva said to Gayatri “Gayu, just let Raj know when to go. He will come and pick you up.”

To which she said “Siva, I can go and get, why to trouble Raj for this” with some hesitation. 

Then Siva said “Gayu, Raj is not an outsider, he is like my own brother, it's absolutely fine to ask him for some help”. Even Raj said “Bhabhi, see Bhayya called me his brother, please let me help you out”.

Then Gayatri couldn’t think what to do and said  teasingly “oh sorry to not to understand your relationship, why not go tomorrow itself then. It’s better to start arranging early so that we are ready by party time.” Raj said ”nice idea. I will come and pick you up tomorrow evening Bhabhi” and he was feeling on the top of the world, that he got the chance to spend time with Gayatri. 

He was thinking that he can achieve her. They finished watching the match and Raj went home. He was just curiously waiting for the next day.
