Perpetual Infatuation

25- First Night or First Kick?

Sorry for the mistakes.

Nandini's pov

The wedding was a tiring, small, depressive and sad experience for me. I couldn't focus on anything other than my Mother.

I don't want to leave her.

Manik and me never talked since last night, I'm kinda glad that he didn't teased or laugh at me but somewhere I suspect that he is silent because he's planning and plotting on how to make my life hell.

I have seen and read many books where the guy treats his wife like a shoe, but Manik Malhotra doesn't know that I'm fully prepared.

" Its time " I heard Mom breaking my thoughts only to see reality.

I really have to leave.

Moving my eyes I saw my mother beside me who was talking or more like whispering to Manik which I couldn't hear. Her eyes were full with tears making a sob escape from my mouth.

" Mumma " I whispered by pulling her saree shore

She look towards me with un-shed tears and I couldn't control myself. Wrapping my both hands across her tightly I sobbed, hiccupped, cried, and complaint about how I don't want to go.

" Sssh, Stop. I'm not going anywhere and You're going to be so so so happy " she muttered patting my head

" No, I don't want happiness, I want you Mumma " I sobbed hugging her tightly

" You're my brave girl, right? " She asked separating us

" No, no, no I'm not brave and I'm not strong. I need you, only you " I cried ignoring the fact that everyone is witnessing me crying or acting like this

" Nandini, Stop. Ok Fine, you don't want to leave me right? Then do one thing resign, leave your Passion, come to Delhi, and find a job there. We both will live there, ok " She said strictly

" But Mumma, there are next to nothing Aerospace companies in Delhi. " her idea was good but My job is the only hindrance coming inbetween. Even though I don't like my job but it is the only thing keeping me close to my dream

" So, you can't leave your job, you don't want me to leave mine. And just suppose, if you're not married then would you've been crying like this? " she asked me wiping my tears

I shooked my head in a no

" Then, baby what is the problem? Just Think you're leaving for your work and whenever you get any holiday you will take the first flight and come to me always. Moreover I'm just a phone call away. " she said making me understand

" And Neyonika, Whenever there will be any leave or any holiday she will be coming to me just like before, ok?? " Mumma turned towards Mom and ordered more like commanded her

" Not only her, even I will come tagging along " Mom said smiling making me sigh in a relief

" Ok, one problem solved, now, what is bothering you next? " Mumma asked me again

" I-I'm scared " I whispered wiping my tears

" Oh Beta, if you're scared of him then I'll give you something of his to blackmail him, ok? " Mom said before Mom making everybody laugh

" What the hell, Mom? " I heard grumpy voice from beside

" Now, anything else? " Mumma asked again

" But M-" I started again

" No buts and if now, Come on in the car, I'll meet you tomorrow or may be day after tomorrow till then you enjoy with your hot husband " She winked at me and my jaw dropped
