His sunshine

Epilogue

He was so guilty because it was an important presentation, but he ran to the store and got me some concealer and some flowers to make up for it. I didn't mind having his mark on me but it was an important one so I had to hide it

"Congratulations graduates" the dean said and we all got up to toss our hats

"Have fun guys" cabir said and I smiled knowing he probably knows what manik has planned

"I should say that to you two, use protecting guys and enjoy" I said running behind manik before cabir could catch me

"You little"

"Navya watch it" manik said and she smacked him

"We will see you guys later" Manik said grabbing my arm

I spotted his dad so I left Manik's hand and ran to him

"Uncleeee, see look at my picture, it's better than manik's right" I asked

"Of course beta, he looks weird" he said hugging me

"Dad seriously"

"Congratulation my kids" his dad said hugging us both

"Thanks dad" manik said

"So off to the place" his dad asked

"Yup"

"You also know" I asked and he nodded smiling

"You both have my blessings and thank you for forgiving me" his dad said and I smiled at him

"Oh gosshhh yeh kay purana drama lai dar Beth Gaye, we are cool humans uncle" I said and they both laughed at me

"Such a child" manik mummbled

"Hey don't her a child" uncle said pulling me closer and I stuck my tongue out at manik who smiled

"Dad we will see you later"

"Sounds good, have fun and enjoy" he said

Manik grabbed my hand as we walked to our car, I have learned a lot from manik like a lot. He isn't just a happy tall giraffe walking around, he is so sophisticated and complex, he is like a onion, he has layers to him.

"Where are you lost baby" he asked as we sat down

"Just thinking how far we came" he smiled putting his hand on my leg caressing my thigh

"We did come pretty far right" he asked and I nodded

"What is this surprise? Wait can I fix my dress, I don't even look oo good" I said and he chuckled

"No sunshine you look amazing, and no you don't need to change and I have something for you anyways so just sit back and we should be there in a bit"

"In a bit, umm where are we going" I asked

"Just a little place"

"Little hmm that doesn't sound right, nothing you do is little" he laughed hearing this

"Well I could show you if you shush for a bit"

"Umm can I guess" I asked and he nodded

"So is it in town" he nodded

"Have we been there before" he shook his head

"Have we talked about a place like his or this place to be specific" he nodded

"Im confused" I said and he smiled

"Patience sunshine" he said and I leaned on his shoulder

"I don't have patience you know na"

"I know baby but please just 5 minutes"

"Only 5" I asked and he nodded kissing the top of my head

In the next 5 minutes we pulled up to this parking but I could see the water and a little set up making me jump as soon as I got out of the car

"Manik see someone has planned something special its so cute, umm lets go somewhere else" I said and he wrapped his arms around my waist resting hi chin on my head

"It is special indeed but it is for you" he said and I leaned away so I can see his face

"Me"

"Umm hmm for you"

As soon as he said that I ran to the beach to the little set up, I knew he would follow me so I didn't look back. When I got to the set up there were block letter on there beach spelling 'will you marry me' and I shit my pants

"Manik" I whispered turning back and there he was on one knee

"You stumbled in my life like an unexpected call. It took a lot of energy to not smile at your stupid rambles when you ran into me or your stupid analogies. I pushed myself away from you, but you know my mom used to say that if you push someone away and they come back it is meant to me but I was stupid to not see that. I pushed you away twice and I suffered each time. I knew I needed you in my life but there were many things that were stopping me. I thought it was best to not include you in my messy life but you know what I know I took the best decision of letting you in. You mended my relationship with my dad and not just that but the relationship I had with myself. You made me see myself with love and admiration. You knew and you know that I love you. I always have since the second you cried seeing me in pain. You have been the biggest blessing in my life Nandini and I love you so god damn much, I love you more than I have ever loved anyone but I will love our kids just as much hehe. You are my sunshine nandini. Will you stay with me for the rest of our life and become my life partner. Will you marry me Nandini?"

I couldn't say anything, everything around me was in one place but I felt like I was spinning with happiness, I felt tears falling down my cheek.

"Sunshine my knee hurts" he said

"Sorry hehe, of course. Yes I will marry you" I said jumping in his arms

"Ohh careful" he said holding onto my waist

"Shittt" I mummbled laughing

"I love you manik"

"I love you so much nandini' he said pulling back a little

"You look happy" I said and he laughed throwing his head back

"I am baby, give me your hand" he said and I did

He slid this beautiful ring in my ring finger making me gush at how pretty it is,

"You have a good choice" I teased and he chuckled getting up with me in his arms

"Oh I know baby" he kissed my forehead carrying me to the chair he had there

He sat down with me in his arms, he leaned closer and pecked my lips.

"I love you mani"

"I love you more janna" he whispered against my lips

I knew in that moment that I was gonna spend every life I get with him. I knew I was gonna have little kids with him.

"Us versus everyone else" I said

"Us against the world nandini" he said kissing my nose

I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him closer, he smiled as he pulled me to him. I looked up at the sky and smiled thanking my parents and his mom for sending us for each other.

We started this journey as me being the new girl and him being him hehe and here we are from strangers to lovers, it's been one hell of a journey. He became my world and I became his sunshine.
