Part 17 :

Confessing to her Bauji was not easy. There were chances that he rejected this marriage outright after hearing of their blunder at it and even Nupur had a fear to lose her and her Bauji's relation amidst all this, though even her Bui was involved in it.

Mayank, Nupur and Bui recalled all in front of Bauiji and he forgave all not so plainly but owing to Mayank's truthfulness. He wanted someone just like Mayank for Nupur. She needed an anchor in her life, her anchor and Mayank would be just that. Though Nupur and Bui did not go with hearing all the scoldings from her Bauji.

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

Wedding, rituals and all went well. Just one thing was not clear – Mayank and Nupur's thoughts. Mayabe they had made huried decisions. There was still unsurity, immaturity of feelings and opinions.

They were not exactly 'in love' and ther were NOT 'not in love' too.

Bui had come up to Nupur to give her various instructions to be followed. She urged her curiosity more about various things she had to look for from now on and for a novac, it sounded alien.

Mayank came in his room, not casually as he always did. There was a pause in his walk, whoever created this stupid ritual of the first night where the bride had to wait for her husband. He already wanted to walk over to Nupur and say 'just be comfortable, Nupur. No need to follow it a typical style'. But well he didn't know how he was supposed to be so casual with her, when he was not already. It would be so odd, he realized. He reached his room and when he opened the door, he was surprised to say the least. She was already asleep in a very odd position facing the other side and there he realized that may be he needed to say those words to himself rather. He laughed in his mind and went over to change clothes and came back quickly when he observed that he needed some place to sleep too after all. Was he supposed to wake her up and make it uncomfortable himself?

Nupur sensed something and woke up and stood up suddenly feeling odd. It was his room after all and why did she feel the need to ask him to use his things around, his bed, his pillow, his quilt…all was his.

She didn't realize that she had woken up and directly stood up from the bed and looked down not knowing what exactly was she supposed to do? Mayank was startled a little at her reaction. Was she scared of him or something? Maybe she was anticipating a lot! He laughed at the thought of how she must probably be thinking of things.

He replied unquestioned, "Nupur, are you fine?"

Nupur nodded her head in a 'yes' and smiled to show her comfort. Mayank smirked at her unassuring attempt. She raised her eyebrows.

He said, "Toh so gayi thi toh uth kyun gayi, so jao". It was an easy escape for him to skip saying something which may not turn out whatever she wanted to hear. And he realized that he didn't know at all what she wanted and expected from him, what were her dreams in this case apart from her career dreams? He had been too busy looking at other things to calculate this aspect of hers. He wanted to know her, understand her. No! Knowing how much he knew of her wasn't enough, not at all. He wasn't sure where to start about it. He wasn't too proud of the fact, but he had actually expected a conversation from her side, as she always did earlier. He knew he had become a closed cocoon and he had, selfishly expected her to open it, overlooking the fact that she was a girl who would expect him to initiate this phase for them. He walked over to the bed and tried to analyse what was she thinking about because as usual her expressions changed range. While she looked at him and down and back at him and continued the same.

Nupur was shocked a little at his casual remark. Did he forget that he had just married her? He must realize that it was not a usual practice for her to sleep beside him like that and she did expect some more words being exchanged between them for tonight demanded that. How can he be so casual everytime or did he still not think of her worthy enough to talk his mind completely. She remembered the promising answer of his while they had decided to get married –

"Agar hum isse sahi banaye toh sahi hai!"

Where was that day's Mayank who had talked so sweetly to her and taken care of her and even held her hand and some "seemingly sparkling glares"? She felt odd all the more to lie down now.

Nupur looked at how her groom was slowly again turning into the man Mayank, she more of knew of for sure as 'she hardly knew him'.

Mayank was lost for a moment, a second of daze for him. He wanted her to be comfortable at her own ease without him telling her what she was supposed to do and what not and more so, he didn't know what was he supposed to say to make her feel more comfortable. He himself was feeling all strange to have her so close around as his wife. It was easy to hold her and her hand when she was hurt. And now, the distance between their minds and space was just as much as it was earlier. Weddings are so crowded by people usually that it doesn't count as spending times together. All you say and do is what you are supposed to.

He hadn't known even this needed practice and preparation of some kind. But he realized that maybe trying to be over casual was not such a good idea.

Nupur shifted uncomfortably under his gaze. And spoke for herself, "Woh main…" her words too trailed off not knowing why she started speaking in the first place. She had to admit, she felt like she was soon going to be punished by a teacher for not behaving as she was supposed to, so she sat down on her side of the bed hurriedly.

Finally he got some words simple enough to say. Mayank sat up and asked, "Kuch kehna hai?"

Nupur nodded in a 'no'. What was she supposed to say NOW when things were already so odd.

She winced at the start they were having – wordless!

Mayank saw her hesitation and wondered why was she being so hesitant, did she expect or not expect something? However he said, "Nupur relax! You'll be fine here." Then added as an afterthought, " Right?" He was trying his best not to bother her with uncomfortable gestures and talks while he didn't realize he just did that to her, never knowing how to handle such a situation, he found he was a learner here on how to handle relationships.

Nupur said finally for the first time, "Haan!"

He was about to speak out finally having thought of a whole lot of sentences for a start when he saw her hurriedly lie down and close her eyes tight.

He was left looking at the empty space after she had lied down. He went to his side and lied down himself.

Was he supposed to do much much more with words or was this alright? He understood the fact that the only girl who made him go speechless all the time, was his wife now.

Nupur couldn't sleep and shifted sides trying to make as little a sound as she could. She felt odd, she wanted to talk to Mayank but didn't know what, maybe even he didn't.

They were such an odd pair, whenever they had talked, either it was imperative or it was silence and if something more, it was serious. Never had they done any talking which clearly meant who exactly they were and what they meant to each other.

Mayank sensed it and turned towards her and saw her suddenly shutting her eyes tight shut and trying to breathe soundlessly. He chuckled at her childish attempt to win over her odd feeling here maybe, atleast in front of him.

He turned to his side making her face his back so that she relaxed a bit.

Mayank was drifting into sleep slowly when he realized a pair of soft arms, engulf around him. He turned around in its light grasp and saw the most beautiful face to him. Nupur was holding him in her sleep and seemed relaxed on her face now.

He smiled automatically to see her slightest smile he had now noticed. But he realized it was not making it very easy for him to sleep that way and besides, she was just in her sleep and this was unknown to her. He slightly called out, "Nupur!"

Nupur got up slowly opening her eyes and seeing the scene that she had created, she moved inches apart and said, "Sorry!" and turned to other side to sleep almost immediately.

Mayank smiled when he found only sometime later that she had repeated her actions of holding him in her sleep and maybe it was a start of a new habit for her and him.
