In Between All The Chaos

Chapter 21

Nandini's pov

Once I was showered and was in my pyjama shorts I placed the jhumka's Manik got me on my dresser and I grabbed manik's gift that I got for him. I placed gifts in everyone's rooms expect ramesh uncle who is off today so he will get his when he comes back

I also grab the Polaroid pictures to show Manik because I loved how they turned out, there was one where Manik was kissing my lips hehe he clicked that one.  Manik's kisses are so mhm so peaceful and full of love, passion all of it.

I walk in his room to see him in sweats siting on the bed with the first aid kit out, i chuckle seeing him trying to replace his bandaid but failing to do so

"Let me do it" I say placing the box I had in my hand on his bed

"what's that?" He asks curiously

"It's a present for you" I say grabbing his hand placing it on my thigh as I change the bandaid

"Is it coffee?' He asks making me laugh

"Maybe, why that guess?"

"People only get me coffee" he says with a soft smile

"Well it's more than coffee, do you want to open it?" I ask

He nods, his eyes shining slightly.

"Here go on" I say finishing up the bandaging and handing him the box

his eyes shine brighter when he sees what's inside

"There is more" I say and he starts picking out the gifts from the box separately placing them on the bed

"Nandini this is too much"

"It's bare minimum Manik" I mumble kissing his cheek

I sit there as he touches the gifts so softly as if he would reck the packaging

i got him a black and white shirt because he wears them the most for meetings, a black matte watch since he loves watches, he always has one on, I also ended up getting up some coffee and a few of his favourite snacks along with a chain

"Nandini this is too much" he whispers

"It's not, put the chain on, I didn't know if it was the perfect size" I say

He looks up at me, his eyes line with tears

"No why are you crying? Did you not like it?" I panic

"No no baby this is perfect, I love this" he says pulling me in his arms

"Then why are you crying?" I ask wiping his eyes pressing a soft kiss on his cheeks

"No one get's me stuff like this, they assume I have everything which I do, I do but this, it means a lot to me" he mumbles, his lips pressed on my temple

"Thank you so much" he mumbles again

"Your welcome, I'm glad you like it"

"I didn't get you anything" he says sadly

"You did, I loved those jhumkas and I loved you asking me out and just you being you is enough for me Manik"

I move the shirts and the other presents off his hands sitting in his lap, he wraps his arms around me making me smile

"You are always so warm" I whisper leaning back on his chest

"I am not, you just treat me like a heater, is that why you sleep with me everyday" he asks

"That and because I love waking up to see your beautiful face, the way your lips are parted, your hair all over your forehead and that calm on your face, it's a sight you won't ever get to see but me, I think it's one of the best sights ever" I whisper caressing his arm that were around me
