Holding his wrist Nandini took Manik to the terrace while Manik asked her
Ma-kya kr rhi ho Nandini plz kuch kha lo tumhara fast hai
Nan-shhh varth hi khol rhi ho wait
Saying this she dragged him n made him stand infront of her n than said
Nan-varth se pehle I have to do puja
N before Manik could saying anything Nandini took the strainer n looked at moon through it n again prayed for manik's well being n long life than she turned to Manik n saw him with the strainer seeing him through that a big smile crept on Nandini's lips n seeing her smile all the tnsn n guilt went away from Manik n her smile made him smile to
After seeing him through that n than moving aside Nandini started rotating the plate around him doing his aarti that she took a lil red pwdr on tip of her finger to apply tika to him bt stopped mid way not sure if he will let her to do it
Manik was kneely looking at her actions n also noticed that she stopped mid way for applying him tika n was thinking knowing wat she is thinking Manik came a step ahead n forwarded his head to her bending a lil down n gave her a nod saying to put it to him
Seeing his action Nandini smiled n happily put that tika on him m than she bend down to take his blessings while her sudden gng down made Manik flinched a lil back n almost scream
Ma-Nandini kya kr rhi ho
Nandini looked at him raising her head n said
Nan-tumhare pair chhu nhi ho
Ma-wat......no plz don't do that come up
He was not letting her touch his feet bt Nandini too was adamant n said softly
Nan-if u won't let me do that I won't be able to open my fast Manik so plz let me do it
Hearing that she can't open her fast Manik gave in n Nandini touched his
While wen he felt Nandini touching his feet Manik closed his eyes out of guilt as he always thought that in their relationship both Manik n Nandini were equal nither he made himself superior nor let Nandini feel inferior bt her this action was not proving it bt due to the ritual he let her do
Here Nandini touching his feet moved her hand from her crown till her nape taking his blessings n than came up facing him n Said huffing one breathe
Nan-abhi tum pani peela skte ho
Hearing that now he can break her fast Manik too said huffing
Ma-finally
With this he took the glass n made her drink the water n drinking water from his hand a happy lone tear escaped her eyes
Making her drink Water Manik placed back the glass in the plate n wiped her tears n than Nandini said
Nan-abhi meethai khilao
Saying this she eyed the sweet in the plate n Manik took it n feed her half of it taking the half from him Nandini forwarded it to his lips
Getting the opportunity to eat something from her hand n that too wat she ate half Manik opened his mouth n Nandini feeded him the sweet than he said coming out from their romantic trance n said walking a step ahead
