Arranged Marriage

Nandini's pov

I was feeling uncomfortable and looking here and other...

Kya hua Nandini ..Manik asked looking at me...

Nothing ...I said meekly..

Are you okay...? He asked concerned..

I am good..I said ..but actully I was not but I am not open with Manik so how can I tell him about my comfort level...
Aur unse kaise share karu...main aisi party me pahli baar aayi hun...itne bade bade log hai...I was lost in my thinking when I found around my neck touching my shoulder...

Mr.Gupta... meet my wife Nandini.

It was Manik ...he was introducing me to some of his client may be..I dont know the man except his Name which I got to know just now by Manik...

Then we move towards a crowd...

Hey ...they all hugged...and I was left behind..

From their conversation it seems they were Manik's close friends ...

They were talking to each other then Manik started looking for me...

In this crowd I found cabir also...

Manik turned behind and said.. Nandini...come here..

This is my wife Nandini...he said introducing me to all...

Hello..I said meekly...

There were 4 guys and 2 girls...

One girl was looking ok but the other girl whose name was soha..I found her a bit arrogant and ruse,she was wearing a skin color short dress ,her hair were open but only reaching to shoulder..

She was staring at me..she does not seem happy when Manik was introducing me as his wife...

Manik's all friends are rich and classy like him ....so I was feeling left out here..

Cabir Navya kahan hai?? I asked to cabir meekly..

They suddenly someone hugged me from back..it was Navya..

Sorry Nandini..hum late ho gaye .
It's okay Navya ..I said..

I was very happy as Navya came because I was feeling very uncomfortable without her...

Then she met all friends of cabir and Manik...

Hello all..she said..and they met like long lost buddies...

After this reunion I and Navya went to another corner...

I hesitantly asked - Navya ek baat puchu?

Haan pucho na Nandu... Isme puchna kya hai...

Ye soha thodi ajib ni hai kya?? I said...

She started laughing hard and said..
Thodi ni woh puri ajib hai...tumhe pata hai woh school days me Manik par bahut line Marti thi...

Accha..I said nervously..
Aur Manik...I asked further..

Aree Manik ..woh toh use bilkul bhav ni deta tha usko...woh uske piche ghumti rahti thi..she said

Tumhe kaise pata ye sab - I said..

Aree cabir ne bataya..usko koi.pasand ni karta..school ke baad ye further studies ke liye Newyork chali gayi thi...
But ab bhi waisi hi ajib hai..
Bas unfortunately ye Mukti ki acchi dost hai..
School ke baad Soha ghar aa jati thi...toh Mukti aur woh time spend karte they isliye woh Mukti ki acchi dost ban gayi...

Oh...I said...

Tum tension mat lo..Manik ko woh pasand ni hai..she said teasing me...

Although Navya tried to convinced me so much but still I was not.

We are at food counter then Manik and all his friends also reached there...

She was also there ,The girl soha.

We all sat together on the round table,Where waiter served us the food...

I sat in middle of Navya and Manik.

Manik was sitting on my right side...and Navya was sitting on left ..

All were busy in eating where I was nervous ,I also started eating slowly..

I was eating like a bird,I was having noodles then some noodles fell on my saree...I became extremely nervous and embarrassed.

I was looking down with some unhidden tears in my eyes,They can come out any time.I was hell embarrassed and many thoughts were running my mind.
How much angry Manik will be?He will not ask me to come with me anymore,He may be embarrassed of me...

"It's okay, Wipe it from this" Manik said forwarding a tissue.

I was surprised but more than suprise I was scared....

My face was pale but Manik dint say anything...but he reacted opposite what I thought about his reaction...

Go to washroom and stain clean kar lo..

I was not moving even an inch from my seat...it seemed I was freezed on my place...

Aree baba it's ok, relax.. knowing my emotions he said...
Navya please go with her..he said addressing Navya..

Okay..chalo nandu..Navya said..and we moved towards washroom...

Manik's Pov

Manik yakin ni hota tumne aisi ladki se shadi ki hai..she said insulting Nandini behind when nandini went to washroom

"Just Shut up " I said threating her

"She is very good person and I am proud to have such a wife,Keep your flithy mouth shut and don't you dare utter a bad word against my wife " I said in anger

Her face turned pale after what I said to her.

"Sorry Manik ,I was just kidding"..She said hiding her embarrassment.

"Accha , Seriously,Yeah how I forgot only you can make this type of shitty jokes " I said giving her a tight smile

She chose to speak nothing and just kept looking down.

Nandini came from washroom.
She was looking at me but she was embarrassed.

I wanted to let her know that she does not need to feel this way but I could not.
May be we were not that open so I did not say anything to her.

Meanwhile Soha asked me to accompany us to our home as she wanted to meet Mukti.

I wanted to say 'NO' but I could not as she happened to be Mukti's best friend and she is so Clingy, Even if I deny she will go with us, Moreover she was also my friend so I din't say anything to her.

Hi All,

I hope now parts are not short..please let me know if you still feel the same..
