Bound by a baby

Chapter 1

Manik's pov

"Manik, lets go and please smile you are about to get married dude" cabir said fixing my sherwani but honestly I was pissed off, I dont wanna get married but I mean its fine I guess

"Cabir tu janta hai im not interested" I said and he smacked my head, "Manik, you may not be interested but her baby might make you interested" he said wait what the fuck she has a baby

"A baby" I said and he nodded, "mom didnt tell you but she has a child, I want you to be the best husband and father you can be to her and her child do you get that" he said and I nodded

"Im gonna be honest, I didnt care about marriage but I wont disappoint you or mom and ill try my best but doest expect love" I said and he nodded

Here we go, about to get fucking married to a girl I haven't seen before, lets just hope she isn a god digger cause I have had my fare share of them which is why I dont believe in love anymore

The wedding starts and the ferai and everything but I hadn't seen her face yet because she had the dupata down. The pandit asked to put sindoor in her hair line and I lift her dupata up and I was blown away well that would be an understatement

Her face is full of innocence, she has this adorable nose, her pouty lips, her chubby cheeks, not a hint of makeup on her face other than mascara and kajal. She had dried tear marks on her cheeks and I wondered why, was she being forced. I shoved my thoughts away as the pandit asked again and I filled her mang, her eyes were focused on the ground the whole time, I put the managalsutra on but her eyes never left the floor

We were married, I felt something weird in my chest I don't know what it is, I have never felt it before but I sure as hell don't want to feel it now. I see her eyes locked on the floor again as guests come up to bless us and all, cabir was with his wife navya talking to some people. I was standing beside this girl well my wife now and isn't it ironic that I don't even know her name.

After what felt like forever guests started leaving and mom came up to us, "Manu beta idhar a" she said and navya came to my wife as she took her upstairs to my room I'm assuming well our room now. I watched her go and I felt weird, I hated feeling things because it meant I was weak.

"Manu, bohot jaldi ho gaya sak janti hu par tu try karega na please mera life" she said and I sighed, "mom mai try karunga maybe we can be friends but love shove ni hota mujhsai yeh too ap janti ho na" I said and she nodded

"Bilkul janti hu tabhi toh apni adhi life kisi esai kai attraction mai kat di jo tujhai paar ni kar paai chal par toh chod woh tujhai acha dost tak ni man payi" she said and I closed my eyes trying hard not to remember anything

"Mom stop, he isnt a kid anymore he knows the mistakes he made and im sure he won't repeat them and about her umm I think Manik will fall in love with her" cabir said and I frowned at him "im not falling in love" I said and he laughed at me

"Sure Manik, go up now and please don't scream or yell she isnt that strong to handle your fucking bullshit" he said and I wondered what she went through

"How do you guys even know her" I asked and mom smiled "she is your dad's friend's daughter" she said and I nodded remembering dad I miss him I wish he was still here

I made my way up to my room with cabir while mom went to her room to rest and saw navya there with her, she had tears in her eyes which made me irritated, I don't know if it was becasue I was tired or becasue I hated seeing her tears,

"Navya" cabir called and she came out with a sad face, "navya what's wrong" I asked, yes I call her by her name becasue we were friends before cabir got married
