A cliche story

Chapter 36

Some of the ladies were signing punjabi folk songs whilst the women of the families got mehndi.

Even Nandini's mother was getting a simple pattern on her hands!!

Nandini searched for her useless brother, so that he could get her something to eat, but she saw him flirting with some Kapoor cousin!

She rolled her eyes - all men are the same aren't they?? She'd twist his ears till they turned red once she got this henna off her hands!!

Even her man was no different!! She'd seen him flirting too, Rohan and Priya's wedding - dancing and drinking with the women. He was single then sure, but still, he was flirting!!

Nandini twisted her mouth irritably.

But after she'd finished the drink, Veer himself went to the food stalls and brought back a glass of falooda with him!!

He sat beside her again and was now feeding her spoonfuls of falooda!

There were all sorts of chaats and delicious eateries here, but her man had chosen only falooda! She liked it, but it was nothing compared to paani puri or chaats? Or dahi bhalla?? And bhel puri?? Her mouth watered.

But he nudged a spoon with the cool and sweet falooda to her lips, and she opened her mouth grudgingly.

He was doing a good job of feeding her however, feeding her small spoonfuls, and careful not to get it around her mouth!!

All the ladies, from both their families, were in praise for Veer, who was slightly pink in the face, but grinned sheepishly!

Even Nandini's mother could only gaze in awe at her son in law!

"I cannot remember the last time my husband was so devoted to me!!" Priya grumbled under her breath to Drithi, who nodded. She too was gazing at Veer in awe, and missing Adi because if he were here he too would be doting on her!

"The eyes only see what they want to see!" Rohan murmured, feeding a panipuri filled with the savoury, tangy and slightly spicy liquid to Priya, who had mehndi on both her hands.

She too was gazing at her BIL in awe and admiration!

"You.. you're getting the food around my mouth! But look at Veer... he's so devoted, so careful!!" Priya complained, as Rohan's fingers brushed her lips and the liquid of the panipuri got onto her lips.

"Really?" He asked, amused, caressing her lips with his thumb and then sucking his thumb.

Her eyes went wide. Of course, nothing with this man is innocent is it?

"You... you..!!" Priya whispered, glaring at him, and then looking around to make sure nobody saw them.

"Hmm me, your husband!" Rohan smiled warmly, his eyes making her melt.

Her heart raced at his warm gaze and she felt herself falling in love with this man all over again!!

She blushed.

Brazenly, he moved forward to kiss her cheek!!

"You know... you people suck yaar!! You're making me realise more than ever how single I am!!" Sneha complained, sitting behind Priya and glaring at the couple.

"Yaar trust me they were worse before they got married!! You didn't see them at their pre wedding functions!" Niharika, one of the Kapoor cousins told Sneha, to which a lot of people agreed.

"I'm also single right now!" Drithi complained. How she wished Adi was also here, pampering her?? He'd have sat by her and fed her all of her favourite foods, taking care not to smudge her lipstick!
