Manik's povThe soft music in the background as Nandini and I sway on the dance floor, her head on my chest, her arms in between her and I as she lets her weight go.
people in the background could be screaming at this point, they could be yelling and pointing, there could be a fire or a hurricane but I would still be at peace because she is right here.
I never took myself as someone who would dance like this at my own wedding, honestly I didn't think I would ever get married to begin with but dancing, that isn't something I wanted but all I want right now is her.
"You sleepy?" I ask
"Mhm I am at peace right now" she replies making me smile
Peace and love are something I am not used to but Nandini, she is the only person who makes me want to let go of that wall I have built up
"Mani"
"Han Jaan" my reply shocks her and I
I don't why or how or what I was thinking, I don't know. The only thing I know is it felt right
Her chin rests on my chest as she looks up at me with those big beautiful brown eyes that were shining. Her curvy button nose has to be the cutest thing I have ever seen. Her pouty lips are so tempting at times but I refrain every single time
"Meko bhook lagi hai" she whispers cutely
"What does my princess want?"
A smile forms on her face, she is so cute
"Chips, I want crunchy chips" she says
"And what about the yummy noodles you forced cabir to put on the menu for tonight?" I ask
Yesterday right before we got married, cabir asked her about any special requests in and all she said was 'I want noodles please'
"I forgot about them, yes that, I want that first and then other things"
"What other things?" I smirk
"Hehe not that"
"That? What's that?" I ask
"You know"
"No I don't, tell me what it is you are talking about"
"I think I am hungry" she says looking away
"Oh baby don't think I am going to forget this, but since you are hungry we can pick this up later" she shakes her head swaying more
"This is very very unfair you know" she says tapping my chin
"You haven't seen unfair yet"
"Noodlesss" she giggles
"Very well my hungry monsteress"
She glares making me chuckle, she is cute when she pouts and tries to scare me
i grab her hand leading her to the food counter, she is barely 5 foot and some inches but god, this women eats junk food like no one's business
"nyonika is here" Ryan whispers to me
"No fucking way" I groan in frustration
"Whats wrong?" Nandini asks looking at me
"Mhm it's nothing baby, go on and grab some food, I will be right back okay?"
She nods but I know she is thinking about something and I'd love to stay and inquire about those thoughts but nyonika, I don't want her near Nandini
leaning down I kiss her head before walking about with Ryan
"She has someone with her"
"A guy?" I ask
"yeah, seems about our age"
Disgust fills my body as I try not to destroy everything around me, I am sick and fucking tired of this bullshit
"Where is she?" I ask
'She was just here" he mumbles looking around
He then points at a table and my blood starts to boil, there she was, sitting beside my wife who was looking at nyonika with confused expressions
"Fuck" I whisper yell making my way over to the table
"So you are my son's wife" she taunts
"Yes ma'am, oh my gosh you are his mother, let me tell you, your son is perfect" she giggles
"How much is he paying you?"
Of course she thinks everything is about money
"Paying me? For what? Ohhh he pays me a lot actually" she smiles
What is this women on?
"So he is paying you to act like you are in love with him" she smirks
"Huh? Okay I think I am dumb or maybe you are coo coo because what? why would anyone pay someone to act like they are in love? Hold on, do people do that?"
I was about to interfere but cabir and Ryan both grab my arm
"Let me go"
"Shh just watch, she is very much capable of handling nyonika" cabir smirks
"No she isn't, she is 5 foot and some inches, she is literally walking into a lions den"
"She is a lioness manik, watch" Ryan says
"Don't be smart with me, how much? Tell me an amount and I will give you double to leave him"
There it is, this is exactly why I don't believe in love or family or any of this shit because if my own mother is paying my wife to leave me, who the fuck do I look up to
"Tell you what, times it by 5 and I will" she says sipping on coke
I fist my hands by my side hearing her
"4 times and call it done" nyonika says
"6 times" Nandini argues
"5"
"7" nandini mumbles, her eyes on the coke in front of her
"Fine done" nyonika said
This has to be some kind of sick joke, this is fucked up
"I forgot to ask, mhm whats your name?"
"Nyonika malhotra"
"Well Mrs Nyonika, you just promised me a whole lot of money but I don't see any on the table, so whats going on?"
"Harshad" she says and he grabs a chequebook from his coat pocket handing it to her
"I am giving you a shit ton of money to leave him so I better not ever see you around my son again" nandini hums bobbing her head.
No, no she can't do this to me. Nandini isn't like this, she isn't in love with money, hell she has never even touched her money for anything but food or to give to homeless people or charity
My Nandini can't do this!
"Here" nyonika hands her a cheque
Nandini grabs it and stares at it for minute before she looks at nyonika
