“Get out and stand by the side of the door
and wait for me.” Was the first command my wife gave.
As I stood outside the shop, by the side of
the door, as commanded, I cursed myself for losing my patience and telling her
rudely to hurry up on shopping in front of the salesperson.
After 10 years of relationship with my
wife, I was now very well aware that a command like that meant she was very
upset by my behavior and a disciplinary punishment was imminent. Once I get
such a command I have learnt (the hard way) to simply follow her
instructions/commands silently until she calms down.
Now I was
standing here with no other choice but to wait patiently for my wife to come
out after shopping.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As we were driving back, my wife commanded,
“Park the car at the first parking slot you can find”.
I could find the parking within next 50
meters distance and parked it.
As I looked at her, she said “Come”. I
quickly got out and opened the door for her to alight. I then locked the car
and followed her.
I opened the barbershop door for her to
enter and quietly followed her in.
As she sat on a waiting chair, she
commanded “Stand”.
It was a small barbershop with a lone
barber. He was giving a shave to a lone customer. There was nobody else other
than us and I felt better though I was not sure why I was brought here and what
was in store for me.
After about 5 minutes, a new customer came
in and he was not sure if he could take the one available vacant waiting chair.
My wife told him “Please take the chair, my husband prefers to stand in my presence.”
I could see the smile on the all the three
guys in the shop.
As the barber finished with the customer,
my wife pointed me towards the barber chair.
Barber caped me and then looked at my wife
for Instructions.
“Shave his head smooth please.” She said
and added “I expect it to be as smooth as a baby’s bottom!!”
My heart sank!! Tomorrow there was an important customer
visit in the office and I did not want to go to office with a bald head !!
I was about to say “NO” when I heard my
wife say “He has a customer visit tomorrow at his office and he wants to look sleek
and handsome!!”
“But Madam….” The barber was about to say
something .My wife interrupted raising her hand “Do as I say.”
Both the guys were dumbstruck at my wife’s
authority and I sat their getting humiliated in front of these two guys as the
barber shaved my head.
The barber cautiously shaved my head making
doubly sure for no rough spots before asking my wife to inspect!!
Once he was done and my wife paid him
handsomely, I opened the door for her!!
The two guys
looked at us shocked as we left the shop, my wife leading me in the front.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Strip & Kneel” I was ordered.
As I knelt on the floor naked, my wife
stood behind me and said “Repeat each word I write on your shaved head. Loud
and clear, you understand?”
I loudly and clearly started saying, based
on the word that the cold sensation of the ink seemed to form on my smooth
head: I…WILL..NOT..BE..RUDE..TO..MY..WIFE..AGAIN.
It was clear by now that she had used a
marker pen to write this sentence on my shaved head. I was now preparing myself
for an extra effort during my bath to wipe it clean!!
“Now, tell the complete sentence.” She said
and I told the sentence.
“Keep repeating loudly until I will come
back. It should be so loud that I need to hear each word clearly where ever I
am in the home.”
After I repeated the sentence for about 25
times, she came back and commanded after giving me few white paper sheets &
a pen “Write the sentence 25 times on each side of the paper on 10 papers. I
expect the writing to be very neat when you give it to me for inspection. You
continue to be in the kneeling position here until you write the lines. You can
use the floor as the support for writing.”
It took me roughly about 2 hours to write the
lines 500 times as instructed and by the end of it I had cramped and aching
hand, back and knees.
As I continued kneeling naked, my wife
inspected each of the sheets. Once she was satisfied, She said “Darling, I hope
you have learnt your lessons and would not talk to me rudely again”
“Yes Madam” I replied “I have learnt my
lessons and I will not talk to you rudely again.”
She hugged me tight and kissed my with
tears in her eyes.
After she composed herself she said “OK
dear, go take your bath and dress-up while I prepare dinner for us. BUT make
sure you don’t wipe off the sentence written on your smooth shaved head. That
stays there until I ask you to wipe it. If it gets wiped out, accidentally or
deliberately, before I give you permission to wipe it, then I will get the sentence
tattooed on your head and make you shave your head daily!! YOU UNDERSTAND??”
I replied meekly “Yes Madam”
“Good” She said and went into kitchen,
leaving me on the floor, naked, kneeling, aching and more importantly shocked
with lots of scary questions propping up in my mind.. Will I be allowed to wipe
it by tomorrow morning before my client meeting? If not, what should I do? What
if it gets wiped off accidentally while I sleep tonight?
I could not stop cursing myself for being
impatient and rude with her in the morning as I took bath CAREFULLY knowing
very well that she means what she says, because she does not allow our LOVE
(for each other) to interfere in disciplining for behavioral correction.
