Perpetual Infatuation

18- Loser?

" Yes M-Mumma " he hesitated a little giving my mother his charming smile while smirked at me and left.

Stomping my foot on the floor, I laid on the couch when my mother changes her all soft and sweet expression to some evil face

" what the hell was that, Nandini? " She whisper yelled, I shrugged my shoulder standing up

" God, What did I ate when I was expecting her? " She muttered herself which I heard but chose to not reply

" Urggh, Go sleep in my room. Neyonika would be here in few hours" Mumma said after a minute or two

" Who's Neyonika? " I questioned taking out one of the duvet from the living room cupboard

" Your Mother in-law " Mumma told me with a tired smile, I didn't said anything only laid down on the couch

" Go, I have to clean the living room " She said once she saw me all ready to sleep

" I'm not going. I only get sleep either in my room or here on the couch. So, I'm not moving an inch from here " I told her closing my eyes

" Who will think you're going to be 25 in a few months? " My mother asked herself

" Whats there to think? " I asked frowning

My mother folded both her palms "Spare me, Nandini "

With this she left and I covered my head with the blanket

--------------------------

My mother in-law came after 2 hours and Mumma woke me up by literally snatching my blanket.

As I have a habit of covering myself, no matter how hot or cold it is, Not feeling anything on me apparently, I opened my eyes with a whine, only to see the smiling face of my Mother in-law

As my sleep was broken from the middle, I was very irritated but had to pretend that I'm fine.

After half an hour of giving smiles and pretending that I'm very well mannered, My mother asked me to wake up the President.

Making an annoying face, I stood up and went to my room, onle to see him sleeping like its his bed. He was sleeping on his front, looking peaceful and innocent.

I stopped beside the bed to wake him up but a crazy idea popped in my mind, not giving much thought about the repurcussions, I took a blood red lipstick and slowly went to sit near the bed.

I don't know what will happen when he will open his eyes. Putting aside all my nervousness, with a shivering hand I applied lipstick on his lips. It was smudged near his lips. I also applied some of the lipstick on his cheeks and nose to make him like a circus joker.

Satisfied with my work, I clicked his pics and smirked looking at his hilariously funny face.

I was busy praising my work when my eyes landed beside him to see my side of the bed vacant. Deciding to just lay there for a minute to feel that peace, I laid on my favourite side of the bed.

Aaah!! Now this is called peace. My favourite side forever.

I closed my eyes thinking " only for a minute".

-----------------------

" Nandini. Manik " Someone said loudly to which I groaned turning side.

" Nandini, Nandini, I sent you here to wake Manik, but you came and slept " I heard Mumma scolding me by trying to snatch my blanket

I whined with closed eyes and trap myself and my blanket so that no one can separate us.

" Nandu, wake up. See Manik is already up " mumma said softly this time, which I ignored
