MaNan- We are married ✔

Epilogue

The award function

As our car stopped just in front of the hall of award function, I looked out. The reporters and people were all over the place, clicking photos and throwing a few questions to the celebrities.

I looked at Manik who had already been looking at me. This was our first ever award function which we were attending as a married couple and just the thought of it made me happy.

"Guys don't act too much lovey dovey. Okay?" Cabir said in a teasing tone. I couldn't help but chuckle. There was once a time when he used to say,"Guys do behave and act all lovey dovey."

"She is my wife and I have all the rights act all lovey dovey with her." Manik said as he side hugged me. This boy.

"Yea yea and it wasn't like you ever listened to what I said." He said before getting out of the car.

"You are being overly romantic. You know that right." Navya said.

"I can't help it when I have such a beautiful wife." He patted my hair a bit and I knew I had been blushing profusely. Navya shook her head a bit and got out of the car.

I was about to open the door but Manik caught my hand in between and stopped me. "It's a gentleman's duty to open the door for his lady."

"So clićhe." I said and he just shrugged and got out of the car. I waited for him to open the door and when he did he forwarded his right hand towards me. Placing my hand on his I got out of the car, smiling like a fool. I could hear the crowd cheer for us.

It was clićhe but then I wanted to experience even the most clićhe moments with him. All the cameras turned towards us as we hand in hand walked on the red carpet. He looked at me and I looked at him. "I love you." He mouthed and it only made my smile wider.

"I love you too." I mouthed before we both climed up the stairs and then to the small stage in the corner. The reporters surrounded us as they clicked our photos.

"So how does it feel to come to the Award function as a couple?" One of the reporters in the front asked. For a few more minutes we were bombarded with a few more questions and we both answered their questions.

"On this special occasion I want to announce something." Manik said and I looked at him, curious as to what he was about to say.

"But before that-" Manik looked at me and smiled before stuffing his hands in his pocket and coming on his knees. 'I was surprised' would be an understatement. I could hear the crowd burst into cheers and claps.

I looked at him. My heartbeat was pounding wildly. He forwarded a ring towards me and I covered my mouth with my hand, trying to control my overflowing happiness.

"Nandini I know we are married. But it happened in such a rush that we couldn't celebrate it properly." His eyes were locked on me as he said those words. "So Will you marry me?"

"Yes I will." I said almost immediately as he held my hand and slipped the ring into my finger. My happiness knew no bound. When he stood up, coming on my toes, I threw my hands around his neck and hugged him tightly. "I love you so much." I confessed.

"I love you too." He said as he threw his arms around my waist and hugged me back.

The claps and cheers of the crowd hit my ears. For a moment I had even forgotten about then. We pulled away but we didn't let go of each others hand.

"So today I want to official declare our wedding. We will finalize the wedding date very soon." He declared and my smile just grew wider and wider.

As we walked down the stage and then into the hall I could see many eyes on us. "You are blushing too much Nandini." Navya said as she joined me.

"The credit goes to Manik." Cabir said from behind and I couldn't help but smile wider like an idiot.

"Don't smile too much. I don't want others to fall for your innocent smile." I heard him say and I raised my head to look at him.

"Don't worry they know I am Manik Malhotra's wife."

"What if they still fall for you?"

"Then I'll have to break their hearts." I said and shrugged.

"Well they'll still have the privilage to get their heart broken by you." He said. We looked at each other with a constant smile playing on our lips.

Getting married to him had never crossed my mind, not even for once and I know it was the same for him too. And may be if on that night we wouldn't have gotten drunk then may be he would still have been that fake jerk to me. May be we would never have fallen in love. Everything in between us happened unexpectedly from getting married to falling in love.

We are married and we love each other. And that's our story. I know it's not perfect but that doesn't matter.

The   End
