Nandini was doing her work but along with that she was thinking of all the things she can do for Manik and she needed a few decorations items too and was thinking how to get it arranged in this lockdown period.
So after doing her household thing, she took hold of her Instagram and messaged a few people who sell decoration stuff and the whole day she kept checking that whether they have replied or not and at evening only one person replied.
So after having a detailed look at stuffs available to her, they made arrangements of the delivery and finally Nandini was done with one part of the celebration. Later, she checked the availability of the food items and made a menu too according to that.
She had a rough idea that how his birthday is going to be with the limited stuffs that she have and that she could arrange. Now she was waiting for his birth day to come. Well all this was quiet difficult for her coz she had to hide it from Manik too.
For Manik, it had completely slipped out of his mind about his birthday. He was busy in his routine life and he couldn't even doubt or be suspicious about Nandini's act of checking her phone again and again.
2 days passed in a jiffy, Nandini got the decoration stuffs that she ordered and very cleanly she managed to hide it from Manik. It was 11.55 pm, 5 mins to go for Manik's birthday when Nandini came in the kitchen, took bread slices and applied Nutella on it nicely.
She made a small pile of it to make it look like a cake and while she was doing that, a small mischief came in her mind and she quickly opened a cabinet. Taking out 2 incense stick, she digged that in the bread and burnt it.
The flower aroma started filling in the air and Nandini came up after shutting all the light fans. Well Manan were on the bed when 10 mins before Nandini came in kitchen giving an excuse. So that's why Manik was busy in his phone, waiting for Nandini to come back.
He was all clueless when he smelled flower fragrance and that is when he looked around and saw Nandini coming in holding a plate. Nandini saw that he saw her so that's why she started singing the birthday song.
Hearing that, Manik who was all in relaxed position sat upright completely surprised with her act coz he had forgotten his birthday. He had brightest of the smile and Nandini came in front of him. She bought the Nutella bread cum cake in front of their face and sang.
Nan-may good bless you........happy birthday to you.
Singing that, she eyed him the bread and naturally he thought that he have to blow the candle and in that excitement he looked down but instead of candles there was agarbatti on it. He scowled and looked at her on which Nandini giggled like a teenager and kept the plate on the bed.
She removed the incense stick and started rotating it in front of Manik's face and started singing an Aarti. Seeing all that his expressions were way too like a grumpy child and Nandini couldn't hold it for longer and started laughing again.
Seeing her all chilled out, Manik took the incense sticks and threw it away and pulled her close.
Ma-bahut masti chadti hai tumhe.
Nan-it's your birthday..........a happy day........ and we should have fun that day.........
She took a pause and than said.
Nan-yeh alag baat hai k I am having fun on the COST OF YOU.
Saying that she started running away to save herself and seeing all her acts and words, he too ran behind her and than started their chase game. Their laughter echoed in the whole bedroom and soon she was in his arms. He took her in a back hug still laughing and that adorable sight caught her eyes.
She stopped giggling and started adoring him while Manik was still lost in their fun but soon he found her looking at him and he too stopped laughing. Now their eyes locked in a passionate way and no words weee exchanged for a brief moment. Nandini than, leaned behind, placed a soft kiss on his cheek and said in her honest tone.
Nan-many many happy returns of the day Manik..........may god bless you with long life and unlimited happiness.
Hearing such beautiful words, in her lovely tone, warmed his heart and he said looking deep in her eyes.
Ma-thank you..........now can I get my gift.
Nandini blinked and turned around. She bought her hands on his jaw and Manik cupped her love handles. They neared softly and their breathings getting wild. Soon they joined their lips for a soulful happy kiss. They kissed and kissed, changing their lips position and sucking each other passionately.
Being breathless they moved away and then Nandini hugged him. Manik hide his face in the crook of her neck and Nandini was moving her hand on his back, a way of passing the warmth btwn them. After a brief hug, Nandini moved away and said.
Nan-chalo chalo.........let's cut the bread cake.
Saying that she held his wrist and started walking towards the bed again. They sat opposite each other and than Nandini again picked up the plate and bought it in front of their face.
Manik looked at it and than picked it up with both his hands and got it to her lips but that was too big to fit in the mouth and that is why Manik broke the break in a small morsel and feeded to her.
Taking a bite, Nandini bought it to his lips and Manik had it from her hand and after feeding him Nandini spoke once again.
Nan-happy birthday boss.
Manik smiled at her and then bought started relishing their Nutella bread. They were half done eating when Manik's phone rang. His father was calling him. So licking his fingers which had Nutella, he picked up his phone and started talking to him.
While he was busy in talking with him, Nandini was eating and feeding him to and like this they finished the Nutella bread. Now after all this, they were hell tired so decided to sleep coz Manik was not expecting anything majorly coz of lockdown.
So sleeping in each other's arms, cuddling and snuggling, their day ended and Manik's birthday started. Around 6.00 am, Nandini woke up with her alarm. Yawning and rubbing off her sleep, she got down and switched on the lights coz it was still dark outside.
Washing her face with water, she kept tea for herself and started removing all the things that she needs for decoration. After encouraging herself, she started her work and it took her 3 hours 30 mins to just decorate the house post cleaning.
In btwn all this, she did prepare for a Turkish sweet kunafa, coz once she remembers that Manik told her about his experience of eating that in Arab countries and that's why she tried her best to make that. Along with that she was preparing for cheese potato pancakes and black tea.
So by 9.30 am, at last moment she had to rush but luckily her things were done before Manik could wake up. She took a bath too and was ready in a nice outfit. Just when she came out, towel drying her hair, that is when Manik woke up. Looking at him, Nandini smiled warmly and said in her sweet tone.
Nan-good morning birthday boy.
Manik smiled at her along with being clueless of the time and somewhat confused too. Smiling at him, Nandini came to the mirror and started combing her hair. She got ready nicely and than came to him. Standing to the centre of the bed, she spoke.
Nan-get up...........freshen up..........there's a surprise for you.
Manik frowned and asked.
Ma-surprise? How?
Nan-everything will be revealed..........for now freshen up and get ready.........it's your first birthday and we have to celebrate it.
She said all that with excitement and Manik smiled seeing her coz she was behaving like it's her birthday not his. Chuckling at her behaviour, he got up, twisted his body, came behind her, kissed her cheek and than took his towel.
He went for a bath and Nandini removed a pair of his pink tee and light blue jeans and kept it on the bed. Manik after freshening up, looked at the bed and saw his clothes ready. Before he could pick that up, Nandini jumped close to him and spoke.
Nan-come on get ready............are you not excited for the surprise..........god I just can't wait to see your reaction.............jldi kariye na.
She whined at the last and Manik spoke.
Ma-aa rha ho Nandini..............you make it look like it your birthday.
Nan-hey bhagwan..........aap na buddhe aadmi ki tarha baat kr rhe hai.
Manik just rolled his eyes at that and said.
Ma-now turn and let me change.
Nan-as if meine kuch dekha nhi hai............hurry up now.
Manik was stunned hearing that ans he spoke after a moment.
Ma-don't you think that line should be mine...........and mine should be yours.
Nan-mtlb aap ne decide kr liya hai k aap ne time pass hi krna hai............2 mins Manik............get in your clothes or else I'll take you naked............REMOVING YOUR TOWEL TOO.
Hearing her threat tone, Manik quickly slipped in his clothes with Nandini being beside him only. Not that her eyes were stuck on him only but yes she wasn't away from him. Once done, Nandini pulled him with her and just when they were 3 steps away from the floor, Nandini stopped him and said.
Nan-now close your eyes.
Manik raised his eyebrow for once and than said.
Ma-don't you think you should close my eyes.
Nandini looked at him and said innocently.
Nan-I would have........but we are in stairs and the height difference will make us fall eventually breaking a bone.........and at this moment I am not interested in that.
Manik bobbed his head once in acknowledgment and than said.
Ma-so you agree that you are small from me.
Nan-off course that's natural thing........you turned 27 today and I am 24..........we have 3 years of age gap.
Manik rolled eyes at her interpretation of his words and said.
Ma-not the age.......... I am talking about this.
Saying that she showed their height difference from his forehead to her's and said.
Ma-you are small like this.
Nandini sharpened her eyes and said in threatening tone.
Nan-just coz it's your birthday..........I am leaving you..........kaal hisab thik karenge about this.
Manik giggled and Nandini said.
Nan-now close your eyes.
Manik did that and Nandini carefully got him down and than close to her decore. After a moment she said.
Nan-you can open your eyes.
On hearing that, Manik opened his eyes and got a look of a beautiful decore in front of him. He was very much surprised to look at the way the whole thing was.
His eyes twinkled seeing the beauty and he was speechless coz inspite of lockdown, she managed to set up all this so cleanly and all alone. He was busy adoring the beauty and the love of his life when something else caught his attention and he frowned badly.
All his excitement turned into confusion and he turned to Nandini but couldn't say a word. He looked back at the thing to confirm that he didn't see something wrong. It was a balloon decore beside this whole set up that was revealing his age.
Nandini had put up a 5 and 0 number balloon which easily states that the person celebrating the birthday is 50 year old.
