MaNan:Arranged Marriage

23.A Big Fat Indian Wedding

It was almost night when I came back home since mom wanted to assign a permanent designer for me and that process took us two hours. Uff.. I'm so damn tired now but it was a wonderful day. After changing myself, I hurriedly sprawled on my bed. Oh, it feels like heaven. I was almost asleep when my phone rang. Oh god, who the hell on Earth is calling me at this time? I answered it without even paying attention since my sleep is the most precious thing to me.

Nandini(sleepy+ irritated): Hello..

Person: Oh looks like I disturbed your sleep..

I'm so sleepy and here this person is in the mood of doing comedy.

Nandini(sarcastically): Oh, not at all. After all raat ke 12 baje mai Bhangra hee toh karti hoon..

The person on the other side chuckled. What the....

Person: Oh.. Why not Bharatnatyam? I mean tum toh South Indian ho naa..

Who the hell is he? Yaar meri neend ki toh aisi ki taisi kar raha hai yeh. I can't even keep my eyes open and here he is messing around with me..

Nandini: Nahi mujhe maza aata hai aadhi raat ko Bhangra karne mei.. Wanna join me?

He laughed making me hell irritated.

Person: Shaadi ke baad milke Bhangra karenge. Although I thought to do something else but it's ok. I love your idea, it's unique...

My eyes flung open listening to him. I immediately checked the caller. Oh my god, it was Manik. Shit, wth did I do? How god, how do I manage to make myself so embarrass in front of him?

Nandini: Manik...

Manik: Yeah.. Thank God you realized but Nandini I like your innovation. You know, doing Bhangra in the middle of night. We'd do it every night except our first one. Ok?

He teased making me blush to no end.

Nandini: Manik, I'm sorry. It's just that I was tired and almost slept when you called so without thinking twice I burst out.

Manik: It's ok Nandini. Agar yeh sab naa hota toh mujhe itne creative ideas kahan se milte?

I smiled while he chukled.

Manik: Waise Nandini don't you think after marriage we won't need to do Bhangra or any other thing except...

He stopped abruptly while my heart started beating wildly.

Nandini: Except...

Manik: Except making love with each other, senselessly, till our bodies don't give up, till our desires quench, at least at that moment, till you beg me to stop...

He was going to say more making me feel drowsy with every word when I stopped him.

Nandini(whispered): Stop Manik...

My heart was thumping against my chest wildly, and I'm sure he could hear it too.

Manik: What yaar Nandini! Abhi toh Maine kuch kiya bhi nahi, aur tumhara yeh haal hai, jab hum sach mei action par aayenge tab kya hoga tumhara...

He teased me more so I decided to shut him up for sometime.

Nandini(huskily): Jo bhi ho, but I'm sure about one thing, do you know what?

Manik(whispered): What?

Nandini(huskily): That you'd be always there to hold me when I'm at my worst.

I said truthfully and I could hear his heartbeats. I could feel him smiling.

Manik: Yes that's true.(but then teasingly) haan but ek time aayega where you will have to handle everything by yourself.
