or not?" He looked at Triyama with questioning eyes. 

" Why? You are not virgin then how can you accept a virgin wife? You had
sex with Kantar." Triyama said in a high-pitched voice. 

" How do you know?" Varid said defensively. 

" Because Kantar is my cousin and she told me that the person I'm going
to marry was her sex partner." 

Varid started melting. He withdrew into a shell of his own. 

All night they both tossed and turned, got up, then got back into bed.
Sat, unable to sleep, knees tucked under their chins just staring at 
the wall, feeling empty with tiredness. Occasionally he would try to 
hold her hand or put his head closer to her, but she would flinch away 
from him. In the morning, with neither comfort nor relief, they tried 
to look into each other’s eyes but could not. Triyama got up first; and 
went in for a shower. She felt as though the water was stripping her of 
the night dirt. Varid stayed still in bed, fighting the heavy, 
depressed sleep he had the night before. He thought that if he moved he 
might crack, fall apart at the side of the bed. She would have to find 
him and to pick him up. His lips dragged making his face look tired. He 
could hear her brushing her teeth now. He closed his eyes and could see 
her standing in the bathroom with just a towel wrapped around her 
torso, tucked in between her breasts. Another in a twisted turban to 
dry her hair. He thought how sharp his senses were that morning, could 
see and hear clearly without actually watching her. 

Varid held Triyama's hand in his hand and said, 

" Can we start a new life even we know that we both had an affair?" 

Triyama didn't answer and went outside. 

The horn of the car brought her to the present. It was Kantar, who was
in the car. They went home. Kantar told Varid, 

" Triyama is still a virgin and she loves you. Forget what happened in
the past and start a new life." 

" I'm sorry Triyama. I'm feeling guilty for what I did in the past, but
I will be glad to have you as my present." Varid's heart was full. 

Triyama went to the bathroom to wash her face. She was shaking by the
sink and trying to catch her own eye in the steamy mirror. For a moment 
she wondered which girl was avoiding the gaze, the girl in the mirror 
or the one that she could pinch. Then she thought she was being crazy, 
and tried to be light hearted and sane. On an impulse, she wrote on the 
misty mirror I LOVE YOU and drew a childish heart, then laughed quietly 
to herself.
