Mending The Strings ✔️

C H A P T E R: T W E N T Y-F O U R

I smiled standing at the stage while dad was closing my sherwani button... i smiled at mama who was smiling widely at me looking beautiful in her green saree... just then a hand came to my shoulder and i turned to see my bua standing there with a smile...

Me: bua!

I said excitedly as i hugged her...

Me: kahan thy ap? Subha sy nazar hi nhi thy a rhy! (Where were you? You were not seen in the house since moring!)
Neyonika: wo is liay because tumhari bua tumhari dulhan ky liay gift lyny gai thi! (That is Because your aunt has gone to get a gift for your bride!)

Mama said coming to my other side... i took her in a side hug just like my bua and then smiled at them... zubin and dad looked at the us and then zubin spoke...

Zubin: tu na meri mama sy dur hi reh! Wsy bhi india a ky inko tere ilawa koi nhi dekhta! (You stay away from my mother! In between coming to India she forgets that there are other too except you!)
Shriknat: mujhy to yaad bhi nhi meri biwi ny mere sy baat kab ki thi! (I don't even remember when was the last time i talked to my wife!)

I looked at the two ladies and then spoke with a smirk...

Me: apko jalny ki smell a rhi hai? (Can you smell something burning?)

The two of them nodded before joining me in laugh.... our moment was broken by some voices and we turned to see the girls coming down from the stairs...

I looked at the girls with a small smile and then my eyes moved behind them to see my princess coming down... she was sitting on a big chair which was held by rohan,cabir,abhi, aryaman and dhruv... she was looking like a real princess in that dress...

They reached the stage and coming down i pulled out my hand to her... she smiled and immediately placed her hand on mine making me smile even wider... and the next moment i pulled her in my arms in a bridal way... stepping on the stage i made her sit and kissed her head saying...

Me: I Love You My Princess!

I looked at her who was smiling widely with a tint of blush on her cheek...

Nandini's pov

I looked at manik who smiled looking at me as he saw me coming down... i love this man way too much.. as we reached the stage i came down to take me and I didn't needed a second to do that... making me sit he again confessed making me smile and blush as he again kissed me in front everyone... sitting beside me he held my hand while Neyonika aunty came in front me and kissing my forehead spoke...

Neyonika: now calling me mama will not a problem!

She said with mischief expression making me nod my head as i spoke...

Nandini: no mama!

My eyes welled up feeling all the love... right now how much i wanted my amma appa to be here... they would have been so happy to see manik... they would have loved him... my trance was broken by mama... who wipped my lone tear and spoke...

Neyonika: its your day so smile!

Sayibg so she patted my head and manik's bua came infront me and blessed me with a smile... she passed my a gift and spoke...

Bua: be happy, my manik is a gem and eventually he got another gem for us!

She made me smile as i looked at manik who was already looking at me still holding my hand...

Manik and nandini were busy looking at each other when the gang looked at each other and
soon the music was filled in the areana making manan come back to reality...
