Manan FF- Arranged marriage (✔)

Chapter 45

Manik sat down on the bonnet of the car and started thinking, looking at the engagement ring on his finger. All the moments from the past started flashing in front of his eyes. The first time he saw her in that black dress looking as elegant as a queen, his first dance with her where he noticed the mole in her eyebrows, the strange feelings that he had when he had looked at her luscious , full lips. Manik smiled to himself remembering how he had been sceptical about marrying so young and how this has been the best decision of his life. He remembered her bridal look and how his heart had fluttered watching her nervously coming to him. He remembered how difficult it had been for him to exercise self control during their first intimacy after marriage.
How he worried and still worries that probably he won't be enough for her! His sense of insecurity!! He remembered how pressurised he had felt during their first love making session. Manik could not control the chuckle remembering that how boyish , immature and naive , he had felt. He had been in a frenzy, not knowing where to start, how to do, how to make her experience the best feeling ever, how to get her to the peak of love and passion. How idiot of him! He remembered how caring she has been towards his family. Till date, he has not heard a single complaint or negative word about her from his mom, dad, mukti , cabir, alia, Dhruv, no one, not even the staffs! That's how much good she has been. Even the media loves her and keeps praising her in articles and columns. I have been so lucky to have her but i think i haven't valued her , that's why i am seeing this day that she is so much angry with me that she decided to stay away from me. i have to win her heart, show her how much i love her and that whatever i said was in the heat of the moment, i have never disrespected her in my heart and can never ever imagine to do that even! She will come back to me! she has to...!

Meri duaaon mein hai mannat teri
Tujhko padha hai tu hai aayat meri
Jannat tu hi hai tu hona na door
Azmat hai tujhse tu hi hai mera nor

"sir" his guards voice brought manik out of his thoughts and he looked at him.

"sir ek ghante se jyada ho gya hai...aur aap ase hi baithe hain..." he didn't finish and looked at manik for any orders. Manik looked at the window of nandini's room longingly for a few seconds then turned to his guard.

"ramesh, main aaj raat yaha par ase hi baithne wala hun..." manik informed and then shifted a little to adjust himself more comfortably on the car's bonnet.

"sir, main bare sahib ko kya bolunga??" the guard asked. Manik got up from his lying position "unhe q kuch bolna hai??? Dad ko pta ni chalna chahye ki main raat mein ghar wapis ni aya tha" manik spoke angrily and the guard nodded apologetically "sorry sir, mera matlab tha ki agar unhone ni pucha toh ni pta chalega par agar pucha toh..."

"nahi pta chalega, tum relax karo...main manage kar lunga..." manik ordered.

"ji sir, main aur mere sathi , yahi hain apki suraksha k lye aap nischint rahiye"

Manik suddenly felt guilty for them "nahi tumlog ghar jao...yaha main akela hi thk hun"

"nahi sir ...hamara kaam hai apke piche shadow ki tarah rehna...agar aap yaha hain toh hum ghar par kaise reh sakte hain!...isliye aap madam ji ko manane ke tarike sochiye ...hum apki suraksha ka sochte hain" the guard giggled a little at the end and manik glared. He wondered how ramesh knew what was going on.

As ramesh saluted and turned to leave, manik stopped him by asking "ramesh tumhe kese pata ki main yaha kya kar raha hun??"

"sir, biwi jab gussa hoti hai toh mayka chali jati hai...aur phir hum husbands ko unhe manane k lye kitne papar belne parte hain! Islye maine socha ki agar aap apne sasural k samne ase baithe hain toh yahi reason hogi..." ramesh smiled.
