**let's start**
Pooja’s separation began quietly but painfully. After years of an arranged marriage that had turned cold, the final confirmation of her husband’s multiple affairs broke something inside her. She did not scream or create a scene. She simply packed her things, took her two children (then around 3 and 8 years old), and moved into the independent house her father had helped her buy years earlier. Legally they remained married. Emotionally and physically, the marriage was already dead.

### **Year 1 – Survival Mode**
The first year was the hardest.
Pooja’s daily routine became strict and mechanical:
- 6:00 AM – Wake up, prepare breakfast and tiffin for the children
- 7:30 AM – Drop them at college
- 9:00 AM to 6:30 PM – Corporate job (she threw herself into work to avoid thinking)
- Evening – Pick up kids, help with homework, cook, household chores
- 10:30 PM – Children asleep
- 11:00 PM onwards – Silence
At night the loneliness hit hardest. She would lie in bed staring at the ceiling. When her body felt needy, she handled it quickly and privately — usually in the bathroom after a shower, or late at night under the blanket with her hand. It was mechanical, almost angry. She never used toys in the first year. She felt ashamed even of her own desire.
She told almost no one the full truth. To colleagues and distant relatives she simply said, “We are living separately for now.” When women at work complained about their husbands, she listened quietly but rarely shared her own story. Inside she felt like a failure — a married woman without a husband, a mother without support.

### **Year 2 – Numb Routine + First Quiet Cracks**
By the second year the routine was the same, but the numbness had settled deeper.
She started going to the gym three times a week after office, mainly to exhaust her body so she would sleep faster.
When she felt horny (which happened more often now), she still used only her fingers, but the sessions became longer. Sometimes she would watch soft romantic scenes on her phone with earphones and touch herself slowly. She never watched hardcore content yet.
She began noticing men more. Not actively, but her eyes lingered a few seconds longer on younger colleagues or men at the gym. She never spoke to them beyond polite work talk. Still, the thought “What if…” started appearing in her mind late at night.
---
### **Year 3 – Quiet Awakening**
In the third year something shifted.
The children were older and more independent. Work was stable. The sharp pain of betrayal had dulled into a permanent background ache.
Her daily life remained structured, but she started allowing herself small things:
- Better lingerie (still modest, but prettier)
- Longer time in front of the mirror after bathing
- Occasional late-night wine alone
When she felt aroused, she began experimenting more. She bought her first small vibrator online, hidden carefully. Using it felt both shameful and liberating. Sometimes she would finish and then cry quietly for a few minutes for reasons she couldn’t fully explain.
She still did not approach anyone. But she started dressing a little better at the office — slightly tighter kurtis, better fitting jeans on weekends. A few younger male colleagues began giving her extra attention. She noticed. She didn’t encourage it… but she also didn’t shut it down as coldly as before.

### **Year 4 – Controlled Temptation**
By the fourth year Pooja had grown quietly confident.
She was a successful corporate woman, a capable single mother (in practice), and her body had remained curvy and attractive.
Her routine was still disciplined, but her nights changed.
When the children slept, she sometimes spent 30–45 minutes with her vibrator, watching more explicit videos now. She started fantasising about being desired by someone younger, stronger, more passionate than her husband had ever been.
She began mild, careful flirting:
- Holding eye contact a few seconds longer with attractive younger men at work or the gym
- Smiling more openly
- Accepting compliments instead of brushing them off
One or two men clearly showed interest. She never crossed the line, but she enjoyed the feeling of being wanted. It became a private game — how much attention she could attract without doing anything “wrong.”
---
### **Year 5 – Ready Without Realising**
In the fifth year the hunger became harder to ignore.
Pooja’s daily life looked the same from the outside — college runs, office, home, responsibility. But inside she was restless.
When she felt horny (which was now several times a week), she no longer felt only shame. There was also anger and longing. She used toys more regularly. Sometimes she stood in front of the mirror afterwards, looking at her naked body, and thought, “Someone should want this. Someone should take this properly.”
She started dressing more deliberately on weekends and for office parties — deeper necklines, better fitted clothes, subtle makeup. She noticed younger men (late 20s to early 30s) looking at her with clear interest. A few times she caught herself imagining what it would feel like if one of them actually touched her.
She still never acted on it.
She told herself she was just looking, just enjoying the attention after years of being ignored. But the truth was simpler: after five years of emotional and physical starvation, Pooja was quietly, slowly becoming ready for something real — something physical, intense, and completely outside the dead marriage she was still legally tied to.
That was her state when she finally came across Matteo.
Five years of discipline, loneliness, private release, suppressed desire, and carefully controlled temptation had shaped her into a woman who looked composed on the outside and was starving on the inside.
