Finding You Again( Sequel To IFY)

Part21_Silent lazy steps

“Nandni...!” her name felt soft like silk at his lips.

“Hmmm....!” she got alert when she felt his thumbs lazily drawing breath taking patterns at her back. More often he do when he wants to make her feel his presence around her.

“So are you ready for tonight...!” he asked, placing his lips in the crook of her neck. Feeling her fists around his back got little loose, he smirked Victoriously.

“For what....?” she whispered, her voice was low but unsteady waves in her tone it was clear she knew already.

“You know my sweet kitten...!” he muttered with a chuckle as he pulled her away just enough to look into her twinkling eyes.

“I...I don’t know what are you talking about...!” she said looking at other side. She trying her best to remain as serious as she could dare.

“You seriously want me to tell you. Because I don’t have any problem to explain in detail...!” her heart fluttered like a caged bird after sensing truth in his words. Of course few weeks ago he promised her already that, the day she confessed her love, it means she is giving him full right at herself. It would be complete lie if she pretends that she forgot it.

“Mr malhotra I think you should think about your health while laying in hospital bed...!” Nandni removed his hands from her waist and in blink of eye she was standing away from his reach. Manik smiled resting his head back against the head board. His biceps looking messy as he placed both hands under his head. 

“Of course my dear wife, after going back home I will tell you how healthy I’m....!” he winked trying his best to not giggle when she frowned. She kept looking at him like making sure that if he really meant those words. But seeing excitement, dripping from his eyes she didn’t need any confirmation.

There was soft knock at door. When both moved their heads towards entrance, it was doctor. There were Manik's medical reports in his hands.

“Hello...!” doctor said, flashing a genuine smile at them.

“So Mr Malhotra I'm really happy to tell You that, your all reports are fine. There is nothing to be worried. About your headache and this sudden blacking out problem, I think its just because after living around your family and friends, you are trying hard to recall things. I'm happy that you handling everything very nicely. Your injuries and memory isn’t tender like past, when during therapies you slipped into comma. 

Listening about the pain he went through alone, nandni’s eyes got teary. Moving closer she placed her palm at his hand which was placed at bed. She was looking at Manik without blinking her eyes. He gave her ensuring smile that everything have passed. Now he is fine but he couldn't remove those uneasy feelings from her face.

“Thank you doctor. You are really a saviour. Few minutes ago my wife was worried about my health and my stamina. She don’t let me do any effort-able work out....!” he said to doctor while intertwining his fingers with hers tightly. Listening him nandni looked back towards Manik who was damn serious. She warned him with her glares. Doctor sighed before fixing his thoughtful ice-blue eyes on Nandni. Even his angles weren't aware, what Manik's double meaning complains were about.

“Well, Mrs Malhotra, you don’t need to be worried, your husband is totally fine. Even after seeing how he fought against his injuries, I feel he have more will-power and stamina than a normal man. So don’t stop him, and let him do work out, as much as he want. Infect I think it will make him more healthy and strong...!” Doctor finished his speech, before turning his eyes down at discharge papers in his hands. Nandni's mouth and eyes were wide open. She looked back towards manik and as he winked at her she diverted her gaze back at doctor. In her thoughts she face palmed, after listening doctor's complete permission and Manik’s ear-to-ear smile.
