Nandini's pov

I lay on my stomach watching manik, I know it sounds so weird and creepy but he just looks so peaceful that I can't help myself but watch him sleep.

We got back from our honeymoon a couple weeks ago and since then it's been go go go, we have had back to back meetings, clients, events, just everything all at once. I didn't know it would be that busy but I guess having cabir and Manik both gone for a bit does that

Cabir was supposed to cover while Manik and I were in the Bahamas but he then had to fly abroad for a meeting so Ryan and Arun covered but you know the scariest person is Manik, seeing his face, people just get to work without even being told to.

Manik's phone startles me a little when it makes the loudest god damn noise, I swear this man never keeps his phone on silent, it's either full on ringer on or off, there is not in-between.

'Just because you got married, don't think you will live happily, there is no such thing as happiness, it's give and take Manik' the text read

It took me a couple minutes to figure out it was his mother who was texting hm that horrific message. You know she reminds me of that one budhi aunty in villages who walks around in the middle of the night

"hello son" she mumbles with attitude when I call her

"This is your daughter in law, the one you met, oh I am so silly, I don't need to remind you, of course you remember rihgttt mother in law" I giggle

"What the heck do you want from me?" She groans

"Well you see mother, I was missing you' I say

"Missing me? Have you lost your mind Nandini?"

"No, actually I have not. I would like to meet you"

"I am not giving you any money"

"Oh don't be so stupid mummaaaa, I only want to talk plus you don't even have money so don't worry I won't ask for any"

"NANDINI" she yells

"Don't yell, my ears are still developing" I smile feeling there getting irritated

"I do not wish to meet you"

"Samezies but I thought we should meet and you know talk. I want to know my husand better and since he came out of you, you must know things about him" I entertain the conversation

I know manik and she would be the last person I'd go to for syncing to do with manik

"He is a manipulative person"

"I guess he gets it from his momma, wanna come see me in the office at mhm 10?" I ask

"No"

"Fine then 10:30, oh and don't worry I will buy brunch Mumma, now byeeee" I mumble cutting the call

As I reach over to put the phone on the night stand, manik turns a little.

"Who are you talking to at such a time?" His husky deep voice

"Mhm your mum" I whisper trying to focus on him and not the fact that his voice is so attractive

"What?" He asks rubbing his eyes looking at me

"Your mum, she texted some random stuff so I called her for a brunch tom in the office"

"Are you stupid Nandini?"

"No, ewww why would you even ask that?" I scrunch my nose at him

"because you are being stupid, why are you inviting her to brunch?"
