A deal

chp 26

Manik was sitting on hospital bed with his glasses on and working on laptop.....bandage  on his forehead and some black smooth hair strands falling on the white bandage with a hospital robe...in that condition with a pale face he was still looking handsome as always........he was fully engrossed in his work as he didnt even notice nandini entering the room....a smile crept on her lips seeing her husband........manik frowned a little and then rubbed his temple while constantly looking at the laptop screen

N: manik u r stressing urself (looking at him in disbelief) stop working.....

Ma: okay boss 1 minute (he said passing her a smile while retracting his hand which was massaging his forehead as he was feeling a slight pain as he didnt want nandini to get a slightest hint of it........)

N: ab tmhare headache bhi horha hai (she came close to him and pushed the lid of laptop while taking it from him and placed it on nearby table whole he made a ttcchhh sound.......ignoring it she went behind him and pulled him back causing him to lean on pillows while she said in authoritative yet gentle tone close ur eyes and relax while her slender fingers started rubbing his temple gently in circles......he got peace as he felt her gentle touch and his lips stretched into a beautiful smile.......but his pending work.....the thought came in his mind

Ma: nandini bs thora sa kaam rhta tha (he said as he tried to get up but nandini pulled him back causing him to groan in irritation)

N: manik do u want me to send ur laptop and mobile back as u r not taking rest (massaging his scalp she said in strict tone)

Ma: but doctor said m fine now (he protested)

N: that doctor is not ur wife and u will do as i say (in attitude)

Ma: aise zaalim bv bhi kisi ko na mile (he sulked)

N: kia keh rhe tm (she said pulling his hair alittle oucchhhhhh nandini he said as he pushed her hand while tunred his head to pass her an angry glare)

Ma: stop acting like a strict mother 😑😑😑

N: so u should stop acting like a stubborn child (rolling her eyes) and now sushhhhh i dont wanna hear any single word from u

Ma: wese m really worried for our future children.......bechare mere bache itni zaalim maa mile ge unhe (he mourned while shaking his head)

His statement caused her cheeks to turn crimson red as she blushed hard thinking about their children.....but immediately masked it and replied

N: tmhare bache ab itne bhi bechare nhi hone.......apne baap pe hi jaye ge wo

While they kept arguing for long as they both loved it...after all they were the real TOM and JERRY

Ma: achaw nandini where is daadi (he said getting up as he held nandini's hand and pulled her in front)

N:  she was looking tired.....i have sent her home.....

Ma: thnku for taking care of daadi (he kissed her cheek)

N: wo mere bhi to daadi hai manik (rubbing her soft hand on his strong ones)

Ma: achaw aur cabir khan hai (he asked again making space for her in his bed while she gestured him to be comfortable and sat on the stool)

N: wo to nhi jarha tha ghar lekin mene use bhej dia....kaafi time se idhar tha nA wo

Ma: perfect ...achaw do u know ke mein kia kaam kar rha tha
