My loveless marriage

Part 51 - (1)

***Abhimanyu's P. O. V***

"As the great writer Shakespeare once said.... what's in a name?! And besides... aap ke naam jaan k honeymoon karta kya?! Naam se pyaar nahi hua tha meri hoor... aap se hua tha!" I smiled at her, wiping the tear that was leaking down her eye.

{Translation - and besides, what'd would I have done by knowing your name? Had a honeymoon with it?! I hadn't fall in love with your name my love... I'd fallen in love with you!}

Cupping her face, I kissed the length of her forehead, revelling the fact that the love of my life was here in my arms, and I'd actually achieved everything I never knew I wanted out of life!

I kissed her eyes one after the other, wondering why she looked so sad all of a sudden! Naina had been blushing and giggling all night - just like the fiesty girl I'd fallen for!

"Hey.." I began, tilting her face and making her look up at me.

But words failed me as she wrapped her arms around my neck and started kissing me all over my face!

What the heck?

Like.... Hello I'm your man... Not some cute puppy or some kid or some cat or some doll that you'll kiss me all over the face!

I'm hot and sexy! Not cute like.... Like some teddy bear!

"You're so cute!" She giggled, pinching my cheeks!

"Excuse me?! I'm your husband and until I married you, I was one of the most eligible bachelors in town! I gave up that title to marry you... So surely I'm more than just... Cute!" I pouted.

But my amazing wife giggled and pinched my cheeks again before looking me straight in the eye and saying "okay how about sweet?"

"What?! How could you? I arranged for such a romantic date tonight! I gave up the title of the most eligible bachelor for you! C'mon I deserve the tittle of world's best husband at least!" I whined.

"Hmm... I can at max settle for adorable! This is my first marriage Abhi... How can i say if you're the best husband in the world or not? I haven't tried the other husbands in the world" Naina said seriously, shaking her head.

"What?!" My voice came out exceptionally high-pitched to which Naina giggled uncontrollably.

I gazed at her as she giggled and looking much more mesmerizing than the woman I'd fallen in love with! The beautiful smile on her lips and the glint of happiness in her beautiful eyes, her beautiful hair that the soft breeze kept bringing to her face. I gazed at her to my heart's content till finally a sob escaped her lips - why's she crying? I was making her laugh!

"Naina!" I gasped, putting my arms around her and pulling her closer to myself.

"It's okay you can call me a clown I dont mind!" I said honestly, wiping her tears with my thumb.

But wrapping her arms around me, she continued to sob, my heart crushing a thousand times with each of her sob.

"What happened?" I tightened my hold around her, caressing her head and kissing the top of her head.

But she didn't answer. She sobbed, and not knowing what else to do, I just held her close to my heart, caressing her head, wishing more than anything that I coule get her to stop crying and start smiling like she was just a few minutes ago!

After a while, Naina finally stopped sobbing before nuzzling into my chest like a cute little kitten.

"It all feels like a dream.... Too good to be reality! You feel like a dream... A dream too damn good to be true! I've done so much injustice to you... To myself... To my family... I don't deserve to be loved and pampered like this! And yet here you are, looking at me with so much love.... " She smiled sadly, looking into my eyes.
