Heartstrings

Epilogue

2 Years Later

Malhotra Mansion

"Cabir... For God's sake, You are trying the fourth suit now. Girls also don't take so much of time." Manik said being a bit irritated as Cabir was not yet ready.

"Bhabhi, Bhai ko dekho na! It's my engagement I should look the best na" Cabir said while Nandini just rolled her eyes at them.

"Bhabhi kya karegi isme? She can't change the fact junior. No matter what you wear, you will still look the same.. Joker" before Nandini could anything Manik passed another comment.

"Bhabhi! He is teasing me again. It's my engagement today, thodi toh izzat dedo" Cabir said pouting sadly and going to stand beside Nandini making Manik growl.

"Manik bas kijiye. It's his day today so obviously, he should be pampered." Nandini said swatting Manik's arm and kissing Cabir's forehead.

"Haan haan tum dono ka pyaar khatam ho jaaye toh thoda apne pati pe bhi dhyaan de dena" Manik said annoyed and left the room.

"Bhabhi you go or else it won't take much time for bhai to convert into a hulk. I will get ready in 10 minutes." Cabir said chuckling while Nandini just blushed.

Nonetheless, she ran behind her monster to make up for all the attention she deprived him of.

"Manik! What are you doing?" She whisper-yelled at him the moment she entered their room.

Manik had pulled her by the waist and pushed her to the nearest wall locking the door.

"I am loving my wife who apparently cares about everyone except for her god-like husband" Manik said pouting.

"Manik, aapke bhai ki sagai hai aaj. Ab toh sudhar jaaiye" Nandini said but her actions contradicted her words.

While Manik's mouth explored her collarbones, her fingers gripped the backside of his hair.

"Nahi sudharna mujhe. What I do want instead is my morning dose." Manik uttered pinching her waist making her gasp.

She clutched his ironed shirt in her fists crumbling them while his mouth worked its way from her neck to her jaw and then right beside her lips.

"Maaanik, stop teasing me" Nandini moaned.

"Achha? Aur aap jo mujhe tease kar rahi hai looking like a goddess uska kya?" Manik said smirking, seeing her blush.

"Haaye! 2 saal se zyaada hogaye shaadi ko and you still blush the same way." Manik said putting his hand on his heart.

"The butterflies still erupt in my stomach every time you flirt with me and my knees fall weak whenever you're near me so yes I still blush the same way because even after 2 years, you have the same effect on me and my body." She replied.

Manik was speechless and all he could do was take her lips in a soul-sucking kiss in response to her confession.

Her hands moved to rest on his nape while his roamed all around her waist.
