"I have told this to you guys a lot of times that I don't want to get married then why are you guys even forcing me!!"
Manik said tying his shoe laces getting ready for office.
"But Manik what's the problem in getting married?! You are well settled...
I was in the car with Manik, we were going to his farmhouse that is 30Km from my house, we weren't ready yet, we were still in our casuals as the drive was a little long, you know traffic in Delhi is horrible, and we too were stuck in a traffic jam from last half an hour, we are supposed to reach his farmhouse by 6 pm and it's already 5:25, and we still have 15 km left. I sighed and looked at Manik who was leaning back at his seat with his eyes closed, he has been working day and night because of the wedding, he has decided to take a week break after our marriage because we can't go for our honeymoon, he will be busy with the document work of the USA project but as soon as it is done we'll fly off to USA for our honeymoon, you know ek teer se do nishane. Manik looked tired and I was actually happy that after the haldi rasam he will not be able to step out of his room, atleast he will get some rest then.
Manik let me drive, you take rest. I said as he looked at me and smiled.
Nandini I am fine, don't worry. He is such a lier!
Manik, please. He look at me and then sighed, he then nodded as we exchanged our places inside the car only. Ok I won't give much details, thodi toh privacy rehane do!
I was finally on the driver's seat as Manik relaxed on the passenger seat as I smiled looking at him.
Finally after one hour, at 6:35 we reached his farm house, I turned to look at Manik but he was asleep, he looked to cute! I just wanted to kiss him but then I controlled my self and started waking him up.
Manik...Manik utho, see we are here. I shook him a bit as he slowly opened his eyes.
We are here. I whispered as he smiled looking at me and then removed his seat belt.
I am sorry I don't know when I fell asleep. He apologized as I just pecked his lips.
You don't need to apologise, Verna I'll get angry. He laughed as we made our way inside.
•••
Gosh guys where the hell were you both? Alya was angry, ok, well did I tell you guys that she has designed my Cocktail out? Yes she is a designer at AR and she requested Arnav bhai to let her design my Cocktail dress to which he agreed but only after my permission.
We were struck in traffic. I replied as we sat down on the sofa, well everyone was already here, they came in the morning only, but I had some work in college so I went there and Manik went to office that's why we are here in the evening.
Ok Nandini it's already late, you came we need to get you ready! Khushi dragged me to a room as Alya and Aaliya bhabhi followed us, while Mukti dragged Manik to another room as Arnav bhai and Aaryaman followed them, and others were busy in the preparations.
Alya are you out of your mind?! I shouted on the top of my voice as she placed my mouth.
Shh, Nandini don't shout! Alya tried to calm me down.
Alya, I can't wait this! I told her as I again looked at the dress.
Nandini please, you'll look damn hot and beautiful! Alya tried to convince me while Khushi a d Aaliya bhabhi were just giggling looking at my condition.
Alya, first of all who wears a saree in the cocktail partly? And secondly, this is very revealing I can't wear this! I tried to explain her but she was just not ready to listen.
Nandini please! This is my best design till date please wear it! Alya tried again, at this moment I was regretting my decision to let her design her my dress, its not like I don't like the dress, the colour is beautiful, the dress is beautiful, but it's just not my type.
Alya, my brother's are also here, and moreover Manik won't like it. Alya sighed as I danced inside my head thinking that Alya finally agreed but no!
I don't want to listen anything Nandini, you have to wear this, and waise bhi we don't have an alternative. I know I can't win over her, Manik had already told me that Alya doesn't listens to anyone in this matter.
I finally glanced at myself for the last time before leaving the room and came out in the lawn , where the preparations were going on.

I looked around and it was beautiful, i just can't wait for the party to start and get drunk! Well I am not a regular drinker but kabhi kabhi toh chalta hai!
Finally all the guests arrived, not many people were invited, only some close friends and relatives were invited as the marriage was kept under wraps.
Manik entered Nandini's room so that they make an entry together but as soon as he entered he was glued at his place looking at the angel standing in front of him.
Manik how do I look? Nandini asked nervously. Manik say something! But Manik was just lost in her beauty while Alya & Khushi giggled looking at Manik, though Mukti missed this scene as she was getting ready. Beautiful! Came a mere whisper as Nandini blushed. Ok guys apna ye romance shaadi ker Baad ker Lena , but right now everyone is waiting for you both. Khushi said in an extra sweet tone as Manik and Nandini looked here and there embarrassed as they quickly made their way outside leaving Alya & Khushi behind who were just laughing.
Cocktail night too came to an end after a lot of masti, though Manik didn't drink as he planned earlier because Nandini told him not to, he just had a little bit red wine along with Nandini as winters in Delhi are freezing, so wine helped them to stay warm.
Many of Manik and Nandini's childhood friends shared some of Manik's & Nandini's stories from childhood , while some singers who were there sang some songs for them.
After the party everyone retaired to their rooms because everyone was tried, Manik & Nandini too slept cuddling each other as this was the last night before marriage that they were staying together.
Ok guys I have noticed that you all are not interested in reading the details of every function so I will also not write it, I will just update the story without any details of every function. This way the story will end early too. Maybe in next 2 or 3 updates this story will be over.
