This update is dedicated to everyone who's ass was slapped by doctor in the month of "January"
...

After having our SupUnch or Supper as Manik calls in it in his language, he officially announced our marriage. The wedding preparations will finally start from tomorrow with all the pomp and splendor.

The much awaited days in my life are finally here. My fairytale wedding!

I was lost in my thoughts as I sipped water from my glass in the kitchen. Niyonika who was in her night robe entered the kitchen and poured herself a glass of water.

Even though I didn't want to have any conversation with her but my little happy heart couldn't control sharing it's happiness with everyone.

"My Queen, isn't the air quite different now that Manik and I will be getting married? It's finally a happy ending after all the troubles and villains in my life." I ended with a sigh.

She kept her empty glass on table top before giving me a side eye. "What's the difference? You both already slept with each other and this marriage is just a show off to the world."

She walked away after speaking those words disturbing my inner peace. Argh! Why can't she be happy for her son for once?

I went back to our room and saw Manik wide awake on the other side of the pillow border I made. He has accepted to sleep on the other side without a fuss these days.

"Why are you awake!" I questioned him.

"You are not beside me and I couldn't sleep. My 8 hours sleep is disturbed so you have to sleep here tomorrow as well." He gave the same excuse like every night to have me by his side.

"That won't be needed as I will be your wife. We can sleep beside each other without counting hours." I said jumping on the bed with a bright smile.

"That's true." He matched my smile, bright one.

I laid beside him and we kept our palms on the pillow trying not to touch each other's fingers or cross the border.

"We are getting married." Manik said moving his fingers an inch closer to mine. "Shouldn't we remove the border?" His fingers moved so close and finally interlocked with mine.

I inhaled his scent as he was now so close next to me and I borrowed my head into the duvet.

You already slept with each other, how will your marriage make a difference?

Her words were like a cold splash on my dreamy night.

"Manik." I called him coming out of the duvet and facing him. "I will sleep in the same guest room till our marriage."

"What?" He questioned not believing my words. "But why? We are getting married."

I sat upright.

"Exactly. We are still not married."

"So you think I will run away on our wedding? What's all this about Nandini?" He questioned me sitting up.

"What's the difference now, Manik? We are sleeping together before marriage, then what will a marriage make a difference in our life if we are doing all without it?" I spoke out.

He shook his head.

"These are not your words. Tell me who fed you this trash?" He questioned.

Your mother.

"No one. And that's not the point. Why even announce to everyone that we will get married when we are sleeping in the same room."

Now he's standing on the floor. "What do you want now?"
