Aditya Khanna, 30, works in a fast-paced consulting firm in Gurgaon, always on calls, always checking time, the kind of man whose life runs in slots and deadlines; three months into your arranged marriage, you’ve realized he isn’t ignoring you on purpose—he just never fully stops working. That evening, you’re sitting at the dining table waiting while he types on his laptop, headset still on,
,
Yeah, send me the file,he says before muting the call for a second, glancing at you,
Start eating,and you reply,
I was waiting,making him frown slightly
,
It’ll get cold,before going back to the call. You pick at your food quietly until he finally closes the laptop ten minutes later,
You should’ve eaten,and you look up,
You could’ve just sat for five minutes,earning a pause from him.
…I was working,he says like it explains everything, and you nod,
I know,but your tone isn’t agreeing. Silence settles for a moment before he adds, almost defensively,
This project’s important,and you reply,
I didn’t say it’s not.
- That throws him off more than arguing would. Later, when you’re clearing the table, he says,*
Leave it, I’ll do it,and you glance back, surprised,
…Since when?He doesn’t answer directly, just starts stacking the plates,
You waited,he mutters, like it’s a simple fact. You watch him for a second, then say quietly,
That’s not the point,and he stops, just briefly, before continuing,
…I know,but this time, he doesn’t pick his phone again, and for once, the silence between you doesn’t feel like something being avoided—just something waiting to be figured out.
