CHAPTER 33
nandini changed herself in a simple yellow saree as it was puja in the house before karwachauth and came downstairs. her face had a different glow that day. manik fulfilled his promise. he didnt let her feel alone or sad in his absence. he was all the time with her. moreover it was her first karwachauth and seeing all the amazing arrangements done in the hall made her more excited. she rushed to the kitchen and saw mukti alya nyonika all together . nyonika was making something and its aroma was spread all over the house. on the other hand mukti and alya were baking a cake.
n=good morning
three of them looked at nandini and smiled. nandini too smiled but seeing them smiling and looking at her made her confused. she thought there was something in her. she looked at herself from bottom to top , trying to figure out what was the problem

three of them began to giggle

nandini rushes to the study room. as soon as she leaves the facial expression of cabir mukti alya and nyonika's changes

mu=but cabir, nandini se hum kabtak sach chupayenge???
a=mukti calm down, we cant let her know that we are tensed

cabirs phone rings
c=its manik, hello dude kaha ha tu
Scene shifts
mukti and alya were outside the kitchen keeping an eye on nandini and also keeping her busy. nandini was asked to make manik's favourite kheer and she happily agreed to make it.
mu=thank god, for sometime she will be engrossed in this
a=ya, but for how long
mu=yeh cabir kaha ha?? nandini ke samne bhai ko call bhi nahi karsakti. cabir se puchna parega ke status kya ha
ny=tum dono yaha ho?? nandu kaha ha??
a=aunty shes in the kitchen dont worry we are with her to keep an eye. ap tension mat lo
ny=theek ha, usse thori der baad tayyar honeko kehdena, guests ana shuru hojayenge that will keep her more busy
mu=mom, time jaise pass hoga it will be more difficult to keep her busy cause jaise jaise time jayega she'll start realizing ke chand nikalne wala ha aur bhai abtak nahi aye ha
ny=i dont know beta ke kya karna ha. manik ne tumhare dad se kaha ha ke nandu ko busy rakhneko thats what we are doing. so just do it okay??
a=yes aunty
once the kheer was made nandini took her phone to check the time but alya came there on time and told her to get ready as the pooja will be starting soon and the guests have also started to come. nandini happily went to her room. her heart was beating even more faster . she took the anarkali and caressed it. after sometime she came outside of the washroom wearing the red suit and sat infront of the mirror. she looked at herself and blushed thinking what would be maniks reaction after he sees her in this dress. she could feel his intense gaze over her which made her blush like hell. nandini put on a pair of red jhumka's, manik's favourite red bangles , applied his favourite crimson lipstick and a bit light makeup . finally she put on sindoor on her mang and recalled the moment of their wedding when manik put sindoor on her mang.
n=manik, um ready the way u like me.. the way u love to see me. manik each and every second passing um becoming more restless and um sure tumhara bhi yehi haal ha... but tum ho kaha?? kabtak aoge?? tumhari flight to i guess land karchuki ha
she saw the time , it was almost evening. nandini took her dupatta and came out of her room. the hall was already filled up with guests. nandini came downstairs and all the elder women began to bless her, praise her. she was looking for raj as she wanted to ask about manik. mukti and alya came to her
n=guys, manik ka kuch news?? i mean?? kabtak flight land karraha ha? flight land hogaya hoga nah..
a=nandini.. ab woh flight thori der me land karega woh... kuch techniqal issues ki wajase delay ha
n=oww
mu=tum tension mat lo, chalo chalo puja ka time horaha ha mom is looking for u. tumhara pehla karwa chauth ha na, enjoy it to the fullest
a=ya lets go...
though nandini wasnt getting a chance to ask anybody about manik but she was feeling restless as it was time for puja and soon the moon will be out and there was no sign of manik. her eyes were fixed on the main entrance. guests were coming and coming but he wasnt there
n (in mind)= ayippa, yeh manik kaha reh gaya?? kahi woh timese nahi nahi .. usne mujhse promise kiya ha and i know ke chahe jo hojaye manik apna promise zarur nibhayega.i know ke woh ayega. woh zarur ayega and i shouldnt doubt his promise rather believe and wait for him
she changed her facial expression and bought a smile on her face. she went upstairs to the terrace. all the women were getting ready to perform the puja. nandini took a deep breathe and looked at the sky.. "ayippa send him to me please" saying she also joined them and began the puja
mukti druv and cabir were trying to contact with manik but none had any news. after performing the puja nandini saw manik wasnt there yet. still she didnt loose hope and smiled. deep inside her heart she had faith upon his words. one of the girls shouted "chand nikal aya" the moon was the prettiest one for every suhagan at that time. nandini smiled and closed her eyes. under the moon closing her eyes nandini stood there and there was only one name on her mouth "Manik" she was recalling all her memories with manik, the only face flashing infront of her eyes was his & his words "i promise nandini, i'll be back" .. she felt him close to her . an unknown smile came across her lips. her eyes were still closed and
n=manik??
m=open your eyes jaan...
nandini opened her eyes and yes her trust didnt go wasted, her belief on him was not wrong. he was there, standing infront of her, looking exhausted , tired yet smiling seeing her happy.
n=manik...
she cupped his face, tears of joy shedding from her eyes and he too cupped her face and kissed her forehead.
n=i knew it, tum zarur aoge , tum apna promise nahi toroge
m=kaise nahi ata?? its my first karwachauth. mujhe to ana hi tha cause main gaya hi tha wapas anekeliye tumhare pass
she smiled and pulled his cheeks
m=ab esehi khari rahogi??? vrat nahi kholna ha kya???
all the women stood in one line and their beloved ones standing infront of them.. nandini turned to manik after looking at the moon and saw him smiling at her
n=ese kya dekhraheho???
m=tum apne chand ko dekh rahiho aur main apne chand ko aur sach kahu, tumhara chand mere chand ke samne kuch nahi ha
nandini blushed hearing him
m=accha ab continue kare?? bakika blushing session badme karlena
she put teeka on his temple and then finally manik fed her water and at the same time nandini too fed him water
n=mujhe pata ha ke shayed tumne bhi kuch khaya nahi hoga.. aur nahi pani peeya hoga
m=tumhe kaise pata??
n=jab tum mujhe itni acchese samajhte ho , main bhi tumhe thora bohot samajhti hu manik i know ke tumhare lie bhi yeh ajka din kitna important ha
he kissed her forehead and made her take a bite of the sweet. she too fed him the remaining half of the sweet.
n=manik. um so happy, mera pehla karwachauth.. i will cherish it always
m=mee too
Later at dinner table
m=so... after that i called immediately dad ke flights are cancelled and to arrange a chopper as soon as possible and thats how i reached ..
nandini was listening to the entire story.. she couldnt believe so much happened and she didnt even get a hint of it.
raj=nandu beta sorry we didnt tell anything you, manik ne mana kiya tha
ny=and agar hum tumhe bata dete then you would become tensed
c=aur tu phir apne karwachauth pe focus nahi karpati thats why we didnt tell anything
n=but yeh sab...
m=nandini...sssh... its all over dont worry. it was a challenge for me, a challenge of my trust ke main usse pura kar sakta hu ke nahi
n=and you did manik
m=i had to, cause someone was waiting for me...
c=accha ab tum dono yeh romance badme karlena.. yahapar hum sab ha, uncle aunty ha kuch to sharam karo
m=shut up. mom, um done, main upar jaraha hu change karne
raj=ha jaw beta ur very tired.
before going upstairs manik gestured nandini through his eyes to come upstairs quickly. she blushed and nodded in a yes.
manik felt relaxed when he entered his room. he opened his jacket and throwed it on the couch. he smiled as the room was filled with scented candles. she knew he loved them and thats why to make him feel better and relaxed she had put them in the room. he was waiting for her to come to the room and yes she didnt make him wait for a long time when he realized her hands encircling around his back. her head on his back and hands fisted as if she wont him let go anywhere
m=nandini...
n=manik please... let me just be like this way for sometime
he smiled and put his hands on hers
n=neeche jo mane suna, i was scared manik..
m=scared why?? bharosa nahi tha kya mujhpar???
n=she broke the hug and turned around to look at her
n=bharosa tha, bharosa ha tumpar..khudse zyaada sabse zyada. but tum..
m=ssshh...[put his finger on her lips] jo beet gaya so beet gaya. lets not talk about this anymore.. pehle mujhe tumhe dekhne do, theekse tumhe dekha bhi nahi
he took a step back forward and looked at her from top to bottom. she blushed seeing him staring at her with so much love. he smirked looking at how beautiful she was looking.
m=just the way i had imagined...actually you're looking prettier than i had imagined.
he came close to her and caressed her cheeks. she closed her eyes and gave her in his touch
m=tumhare samne, the word beautiful is nothing nandini. nothing is compared to you and i feel myself the most luckiest man of the world cause you are mine, Humesha
n=humesha
he pulled her in a bear hug, a hug for which both of them were waiting, craving. the hug was a never ending one. her hands clutching his shirt pulling him more close. manik dropped kisses on her shoulder .
n=manik [still hugging]
m=hmmm
n=i missed you so much, it was just one day but for me it felt like eternity.. manik please ese mujhe chorke kabhi mat jana.. please
manik smiled and broke the hug, she clutched his collar and pulled him closer
n=i mean it... please dont leave me like this again
m=itna miss kiya mujhe???
n=isse bhi zyada... bohot zyada
they started to move in a slow sync... his hand went to her waist and hers around his neck, lost in eachothers eyes.

zaara zara behekta hai [ he pulled her hand from his neck]
mehekta hai aj toa mera [entwinded their fingers]
tan badan main pyasi hu [kissed their entwined hands]
mujhe bharle apni baho me [twirled her around]

zaara zara behekta hai [pulled her back and she hit his chest]
mehekta hai aj toa mera [slided his hand from her shoulder to herfingers]
tan badan main pyasi hu [bought her hand close to his lips and kissed them]
mujhe bharle apni baho me [she rested her head on his heart]

ha meri kasam tujhko sanam [ he hugged her close to him by waist]
dur kahi na jaa [she looked at him from beneath her eyelashes]
yeh doorie kehti ha [he kissed her forehead]
pass mere aja re...[kissed her nose]

moved her hair to one side of her shoulder .. he opened her right earing , his delicated touch passing current all over her body. he kissed her earlobe and nuzzled in the crook of her neck with his nose, nibbling and dropping uncountable kisses. he opened her left earing too and slowly turned her around..

yuhi baras baras kali ghata barse [ her hands went to his collar]
hum yar bheeg jaye is chahat ki [started to unbutton the first two buttons]
barish me
meri khuli khuli lato ko suljhay [he moved her bangs from her eyes ]
tu apni ungliose [kissed her both eye lids]
main to hu is khwahish me [kissed her cheeks]
sardi ki ratome hum soye rahe ek chadar me [caressed her cheeks with his thumb]
hum dono tanha ho na koi bhi rahe is ghar me [saw her lips shaking, he smirked seeing she had applied his favourite crimson lipstick]
without wasting any more time he captured his lips with hers. he sucked the crimson and bit her lower lip to get access to her mouth and she responded with equal favour. her hands opened the rest of the buttons of his shirt while his hands fisted in her hair]

tarpaye mujhe teri sabhi bate [they broke the kiss gasping for air]
ekbar ae deewane jhuta hi sahi [he picked her in his arms and made her lie on the bed]
pyar to kar [ manik came over her and kissed her forehead]
main bhuli nahi hasi mulakate [unpinned her dupatta and moved it from her neck. he kissed each and every inch of her neck and shoulder, planting kisses and love bites.]
bechan karke mujhko [she clutched the bed sheet tightly]
mujhse yun na pher nazar [pulled her duvet over themselves and undressed both of them]
ruthega nah mujhse mere sathiya yeh wada kar [ a lone tear escaped from her eyes and he kissed that]
tere bina mushkil ha jeena mere mere dilbar [she pulled him closer for another passionate kiss]

zaara zara behekta hai [swapped their positions]
mehekta hai aj toa mera [kissed him on his neck, shoulder , chest]
tan badan main pyasi hu [entwined their hands pinned on the bed]
mujhe bharle apni baho me [he again swapped their positions ]

ha meri kasam tujhko sanam [kissed each and every inch of her body]
door kahi na jaa [her moans echoing in the room]
yeh duri kehti ha
pass mere aja re
"i love you" both said to eachother consumating their love. he planted a kiss on her temple and pulled her over himself. it was nearly dawn but nandini was still awake. whole night she had been kissing his chest and playing with his fingers.. the scenario was a rare one as manik was sleeping and she was awake. she smiled and pecked on his lips.
