A CRAZY LOVE - Episode 8
Kizy was still strictly made to finish those entire
two bowls of soup. She felt it would have been
better if Markus would have poisened her,
instead of making her drink those two bowls.
“Look Mom, she only listens to you. She
wouldn’t have finished the soup even if i was to
die convincing her” Markus complained.
“Markus save my contact in your phone. If she
isn’t listening to you, you can straightaway call
me personally and i will handle her” Kate spoke.
“Are you truly my mom” Kizy exclaimed.
“Kizy if he is speaking for your benefit, you
should listen to him. Don’t take advantage of
his feelings and concern” Kate reprimanded
Kizy.
All the enthusiasm that Kizy had shown while
entering the ward was gone by the time she left
following behind Markus..
As soon as she sat on the passenger seat,
Markus yanked her towards him.
“You better remember the consequences of
angering your husband Kizy. This was only a
small punishment because i am pitying you for
your periods. But if this behaviour is seen to be
repeated, i will make sure you would be begging
for death than to be present anywhere near me”
Markus whispered in her ear while holding her in
a tight grip of his hands.
Kizy struggled in his tight grip, but eventually
she stopped knowing it was useless. She
ignored Markus and closed her eyes, pretending
to be asleep.
Markus didn’t mind this childish behaviour of
hers. Anyways, he had already punished her and
he didn’t wanted to pay any more attention to
her.
Both of them had there most peaceful dinner
ever in the past three days. Markus was silently
eating his food, thus Kizy didn’t had any reason
to fight him.
Today Kizy directly came inside the bedroom
and had her bath before laying down on bed.
Markus did the same and climbed bed from
opposite side.
“Don’t you have any work on terrace today dear?
I thought you loved sleeping there” Markus
asked with a smirk.
“We are legally married couple. All of your
belongings are mine, this bedroom and bed
included. So whether i wan’t to stay here or go is
my decision. Also you don’t have to interfere
with my work” Kizy retorted.
“Oh Dear how can you say such mean things?
And you are working for me. So how can i not
interfere?” Markus teased Kizy.
Kizy didn’t knew how to reply back. She turned
her back towards Markus and closed her eyes,
trying to sleep. Markus turned the table lamp off
before pulling Kizy and sleeping with her in his
arms.
The next few days were comparitively peaceful
for the couple. Markus was busy with some
project and didn’t had much time with Kizy
except while they shared the same bed. Every
morning Kizy would find herself cuddling
Markus but she was somehow getting used to
it.
But something changed on ninth day of there
marriage. Today Markus and Kizy were
returning home after a day full of work and
paying Kizy’s mom a visit. And something
unexpected happened. A lot of black cars were
parked outside there mansion and men wearing
black uniform could be seen forming two proper
lines on both sides of road leading to the
mansion.
Markus saw this and immediately cursed.
“$h|t”.
“Is something wrong?” Kizy asked after
watching his tensed expression.
“Listen, just co-operate with me now and
pretend as if we are a very loving and caring
couple. Don’t try to act oversmart or the
consequences would be dire.” Markus finished
before quickly opening the door from his side of
car and went to open the door on opposite side
for Kizy. He even placed a hand above her head,
showing as if he was worried that she would hit
her head while exiting the car.
Kizy was thoroughly confused now. Why so
many cars were parked today? And where have
all these men came from? But most importantly
why was Markus suddenly behaving like a
gentleman with her?
Markus suddenly made Kizy hook her arm
within Markus hand and then lead her towards
the house. He bent a little towards her and
whispered with a smile.
“Remember what i said or else just forget about
living a normal life from today. Now smile
brightly.”
For others, it seemed as if the couple was living
there honeymoon phase to the fullest,
whispering sweet words and teasing each other.
But only Kizy knew how Markus was capable of
thr_@tening someone with such a loving smile.
All these actions were being seen by someone
from the balcony on second floor. After
watching the couple enter, the person went
inside the room.
Markus removed his shoes before taking off his
blazer and Kizy’s purse from her hand, and kept
them on the stand.
“Has he eaten anything?” Markus asked the
butler.
“No young master. Master wanted to wait for
both of you” butler replied respectfully.
“Ok. Prepare to serve the food. We will dine
together within ten minutes” Markus said before
climbing the stairs with Kizy.
As soon as he opened the door for his room, a
vase came flying towards his head. Hopefully
he had quick reflexes and was used to this
treatment, hence he managed to catch it in time.
“Grandfather, will it hurt you if you don’t try to
ruin my valueable vases every single time?”
Markus asked in a monotonous voice.
Behind him Kizy was shocked at the scene. Just
as the door had opened, a vase came flying
towards them, she was about to dodge it
quickly but Markus was a step ahead of her. But
what stunned her more was the person standing
before her was Markus’s grandpa. She had
somehow guessed that it might be his grandpa
from the way butler had adressed him, but she
didn’t expect her guess to come out true.
When they were in there last year of college,
Markus had dropped out from college. It was
only after a month that she came to know that
his father had died and Markus was made to
take over the business. She had also known that
his father had no other siblings. Thus Kizy had
thought that the Master butler referred might be
his grandpa, and her guess came true.
“So will it hurt you to inform the family before
your marriage. Even if not asking, shouldn’t you
bring her back home and introduce her to the
family?” His grandpa snorted.
“Grandpa this is Kizy. I wanted to take her back
home for introducing her, but she is a little shy.
Also due to some accident, her mother is
hospitalized at the moment. I wanted to
completely investigate the incident before
bringing her along with her mom” Markus
replied in a careless voice.
“Just making excuses. Just because nobody is
scolding you does not means you don’t have to
fear them.” He said angrily before turning
towards Kizy. But suddenly all his anger
disappeared the moment he gazed at her. His
face broke out into a doting smile.
One had to say that Grandpa had maintained
himself well over years. Even when he was
almost seventy years old now, he walked with
ramrod back without help of walking stick.
Though years of hardships were visible from his
wrinkles, but his facial features as well as
expressions were sharp. One could see that he
was blessed with his looks and many women
would be fawning over him in past..
“Kid you look very kind by nature. I am happy to
see that this brat has finally married someone
sensible. But you don’t have to be afraid of us.
In fact my wife wanted to tag along with me to
meet you, but i wanted to scold this useless
child. And it is impossible to discipline him in
front of her. But you should relax, and visit us
whenever you have sometime. Our family has
been waiting for you since the day you married
him” He said gently, as if afraid that even his
voice would scare his grand-daughter-in-law
away.
Kizy suddenly didn’t knew how to react. She
was used to living with only her mom for the
past few years. Thus she didn’t knew how it felt
like to have an elder always caring and nagging
behind you.
“I will definitely try to meet up with you all as
soon as possible” Kizy said while lowering her
head.
“Good. Good. What an obedient child” Grandpa
said with a smile.
Kizy thought for a moment before removing her
hand from Markus’s grip and walking towards
grandpa. She held his hand while supporting
him from the back with other hand.
“Grandpa i heard that you haven’t eaten
anything yet. Lets have dinner and then we can
talk” she said politely.
Behind her Markus was stumped for words. He
somehow expected that his grandpa would like
Kizy. In fact he was sure that grandpa would
have liked anyone he married, unless the person
wasn’t a male. But what was wrong with Kizy.
Did she hit her head somewhere?
But nobody could blame him for this. Markus
and Kizy had always grown up fighting each
other to death. Not to mention a few polite
words, he had never heard her talk normally. So
all this sweet childish behaviour she was
showing in front of his grandpa was completely
unexpected.
“Grandpa will definitely listen to you. You need
to eat more. Look at how thin you are” Grandpa
nagged before leaving the room, while Kizy
supported him. Both of them ignored the person
who was the first reason why they were able to
meet each other.
Markus stood motionlessly on his place
watching the back of his ‘beloved’ wife and
‘loving’ grandpa who even forget that someone
was standing together with them. He sullenly
shook his head before following behind them.
The dinner was very joyful. Kizy had
immediately developed liking for this newly
found grandpa. For the entire time, grandpa was
asking different questions, trying to know her
preferences and dislikes. While Kizy was busy
piling food on his plate. He even asked about
how Markus treated her, but she simply replied
that they were good. Afterall although she
would love to complain about certain devil, she
wasn’t ready for the punishment accompaning
that.
After dinner, Kizy took a walk with grandpa in
the garden behind there house. Markus was
quietly following both of them, though internally
he just wanted to leave this pair of uncaring
people and go back to his work.
Grandpa was enjoying his time as well. After
sometime he came to the main point.
“Actually it will be your grandmother’s birthday
three weeks from now. But i wanted to ask you
regarding the planning. Initially i wanted to
celebrate this birthday in a grand way by
welcoming all our acquintances. But suddenly
both of you married without any prior
notification. And we don’t know the culprit
behind your mother’s accident yet. We don’t
know what they want. Also if you were to
appear at the celebration with Markus, we
would have to reveal your identity which might
attract his enemy’s attention on you. Therefore i
wanted to ask if you are comfortable with a
inviting guests for the celebration or should we
hold a small celebration within our family
members. Afterall we don’t want to risk your
safety.” he finished. Though he had asked
about this from both of them, he was waiting
for Markus’s reply.
“If i can not even protect my wife, i wouldn’t
have married her in the first place. Her safety is
my responsibility. You can carry on with your
initial arrangements. I will take care of how to
reveal her identity and protect her” Markus said
in a firm voice.
“What about you Kizy. Your opinion matters as
well. We have a small family, thus we care
about what all of us feel about every decision
we have to make as a family” But this time
grandpa’s voice was softer.
“Grandpa i will follow the arrangements Markus
has made for me. And i would definitely like to
meet the other family members as well” Kizy
replied.
Though she knew the amount of hatred she had
for Markus, she was a person with her
principles. Wh@??ver hatred she had for Markus
was limited to him. She had never met his
family, and hence she won’t judge them based
on Markus’s character. And so far her decision
was correct as grandpa seemed to be a very
thoughtful and caring person, different from the
devil she had to live with.
“Alright then, make sure you don’t plan anything
at that time. Lets meet at the celebration then”
Grandpa then turned towards Kizy.
“Although Markus isn’t a bad person, but we
have spoiled him endlessly. If this brat ever
troubles you, just tell the butler to notify me. I
will take care of him” With that grandpa rubbed
her head and glanced at Markus before leaving.
