"Manik"

"Jaan sonai do na yar" he said and my breath hitches as butterflies flood in my stomach

"Bolo na" he said when I didn't say anything

"Kya bolu, abi toh you said na let you sleep" I whispered

"Han par nind ni ayegi na tum bologi ni toh"

"Kya bolu batar"

"Nandini yarrr"

"Han baba bolo na"

"Kuch toh bolo" he siad

He has this weird habit that he has developed where he needs me to talk to him to make him fall a sleep.

"Esehi nind ni ati dkya"

"Ni na tumhai pata toh hai"

"Okay shh don't get frustrated"

"You know im sleepy right"

"I know but you seem to be a little irritated for some reason" I said

"Umm thodha sa"

"Why" I asked

"I wanted something for you but it's taking time"

"Okay and why is that a problem"

"I wanted to give you on this trip na" he said

"It's fine Manik, delays happen. You can't become a coconut because of this"

"I am not a coconut"

"You are"

"Ughhhh fine"

"Okay calm down, just relax. Delays in such things can occur but why are you spoiling your mood, it's not like I would get upset right"

"It's not about that, it's about the fact that I had given them a date and they said it would be ready before that and now It's late. Like sure I get it, I understand it but why say it in confidence and then do this"

"What is it" I asked

"I can't tell you"

"Please" I said softly and heard him sigh

He moved his face out of my shoulder and looked at me

"I umm I wanted us to have a place where we could go to near the beach back in India. I know you love beaches and I wanted privacy with you. Gia is getting bigger and I know cabir and navy need their privacy too. Mom and dad are anyways out most of the time so I thought I would have a home build for us. I looked at some of the things you liked in our house right now. I was supposed to get the keys this morning but they said it can take a few weeks" he explained

My eyes watered a little hearing him, he put so much thought into this, for me, for us.

"Hey shhh I'm sorry if you didn't like it I can"

"No no I umm Manik you didn't have to" I said and he wiped my face

"I wanted to for us. We both need time with each other and im not saying we don't get that but I just"

"You don't have to explain, thank you" I whispered

"So you like the idea"

"Of course I love the idea, ill miss everyone though" I said

"It's only 10 minutes away from the house" I nodded hearing this

"Thank you for thinking so much about me" I said and he chuckled

"Girl you are all I think about, even in meetings" I blushed hearing this

"Manik"

"It's true, now if you question answer session is done meko sona hai" he asked
