Chapter - 31 

Retour en arriere

Manik hum kahan jarahe hain? Please bolo na. Nandini asked Manik, who was busy playing with the laces of her baby pink frock that she wore along with the matching stilettos and skin colored leggings; while they were on their way to their first tourist site. He din't reply and started curling her tresses around his fingers and seeing him not giving an answer, she turned her face away from him and made an angry pout, folding her arms across her chest. He smiled and replied, hugging her from back and resting his chin on her shoulder Baby bas thodi der aur na. I promise! The suspense is worth the wait. She furrowed her brows and looked at him from the corner of her eyes and not able to resist her cuteness anymore, he just veered her about and sealed his lips with hers for a passionate kiss. There was no threat to their privacy; all thanks to the partition separating the Chauffeur seat and rear passenger compartment and also to the hard tint that covered the windows of their luxury sedan. Breathless, they pulled apart and then Manik said, curving her lips in a smile with his fingers Don't be sad na honey! Please keep smiling. You know na your smile is like an oxygen for me. Being a lover, it was impossible for her to disregard his such an innocent request and fulfilling his wish, she gave him what he believed to be 'oxygen' ;his favorite smile. His lips too twitched into a smile and then he said, patting her cheek lightly Now thats like my girl. Chalo ab close your eyes and tab tak main na kahoon kholna mat okay? Knowing there was no benefit of arguing with him, she quietly nodded and closed her eyes. He pecked on her lips and soon, she felt herself lifted in his muscular arms. 

After walking for 5 minutes, he stopped in his track and then said, making her stand Wait is over Sweetheart! Open your eyes. She slowly raised her lashes and soon her eyes bulged out of their sockets and her hands moved on their own accord to cap her cakehole; in surprise; on seeing the breathtaking view of Disneyland before her. After a brief process of realization that it was true, she came out of her shock and started jumping at her place while clapping her hands; just like a 3 - year old would do if put at her place. Well aware of her craziness for the Disney cartoon characters; especially the Disney Princesses; he had kept the Disneyland Paris as the first place in their visit - list. She was gamboling like a kid with a never ending smile adhered on her face; just the way he had envisioned her to and seeing her so joyful, filled Manik's heart with contentment. While she kept squinting around and hop jovially; he was busy in admiring her happiness and her beautiful smile; for which he had done all this - the only thing in this world that kept him alive and the sole reason behind the ataraxy in his life. If Nandini was happy; Manik was on top of the world - seeing her delighted. At that moment, he again promised himself for an umpteenth time; just the way he did every time he sees her ecstatic; that he would do anything to make sure she doesn't loose her this smile, even if it requires turning the whole world upside down. He bent closer to her and asked in a whisper So Honey bee liked the surprise?As an answer she sprung his arms, causing him to loose his balance for a nanosecond and replied, hugging him tight Like? I soo loved it Manik. All this is so pretty. Thank You! He grinned his widest and said, breaking the hug and after kissing her forehead No ThankYous. Anything for you. Ab ander chalein? She gave him a quick peck on his lips and then hooked her arms with his and entwined their fingers. 

They were ambling around and descrying the FantasyLand in the Disneyland Park, with Nandini narrating Manik all the important facts about different figures that came in their way. They solved the Alice's Curious Labyrinth, took the Snow White's scary adventures ride, explored the Sleeping Beauty Castle where Nandini acquainted Manik with the story of Sleeping beauty as they walked through a gallery of displays which illustrate the story in tapestries, stained glass windows and figures, which he very attentively heard. He bought her a pretty Sleeping Beauty Pendant from the castle's ornament shop when she told him about her favoriteness for Aurora ( Disney Sleeping Beauty Princess ) and after exiting the Castle, they took a boat in the Storybook land that guided them through settings of The dwarfs' mine and house from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The gingerbread house of Babes in the Woods, Rapunzel's high tower with a braid coming out of it, The Old Mill, Prince Eric's seaside castle, The Greek temple and Mount Olympus, Snow-covered landscapes from Peter and the Wolf, The "Night on Bald Mountain" scene from Fantasia, The Cave of Wonders from Aladdin which swallows the boat, A scene from The Sword in the Stone Belle's village and the Beast's castle from Beauty and the Beast, The Emerald City and the Witch's Castle; accompanied by music from the respective film and minimal dialogues.
