Chapter 5
She didn't realise when they reached home, she was still strumming and dancing to the music in her head. He opened the door, and she was tumbling inside, and in no time she was lying face flat on the couch.
He didn't wanna disturb her sleep, so he just removed her boots and jacket and covered her up in a blankie.
Morning was painful for her. When she got up, she realised she wasn't in her room, she just scanned around in half-closed eyes and found him eating breakfast, and she sighed..Damn.
When she thought of sneaking into her room, she saw that she was just halfnaked lying on her couch..''W*F,W*F!, think nandini..think! think! think..!
Seeing her up, he told, ''i've kept a fresh pair of tshirt on your left, you threw up on your dress last night''
without moving his gaze from his blackberry.
"well, that explains half of it, she thought''
when she was about to leave, he added, ''aspirin and juice is by your nightstand, and waise, make sure to drink lots of water''.
"I'm never drinking again is all she could think at that moment, She freshened up and came downstairs and found him still sitting by the dining room..She sat opposite to him, as if expecting him to tell something..
Seeing him all this serious, all she could think of was how they used to get ready 3 years back..
3 years back.
"Where's my shoe, jaan?''
'' obviously, by the shoerack, what kinda stupid question is that?''
Even amidst their tight schedule. They never ceased to romance..
Eyelocks while busily combing hair which would end up in breathtaking makeout sessions..
Shower sessions to save out time..
Even breakfast, feeding out like bunch of momma birds and ending up burning the calories right then.
"Mat jaao na.. Even i don't wanna go to office, jaan..'', ''We'll stay at home, no we'll take longdrive to beach, no no..better idea, we'll fly up to Paris, What say, Madamoisseille??''
"Don't be silly Manik, how long do you think our honeymoon phase will continue?''
He gestured her to come near her with his fingers, she came,''what now?''
''As long as i'm with you, a lifetime isn't enough for honeymoon'' saying that he sucked the jam out of her corner of her lips.
"MANIK!!"
''Its getting late. Tomorrow, your craziness can go fullon, because its weekend and i've zero objection''
"Aye aye, captain''
saying that, both reluctantly left for each other's office..
His finger-tapping over the table brought her back to the reality,
She was just staring at him, his eyes were clearly tired from lack of sleep, Wrinkles on his forehead indicated there was some current stress at his office.So she thought of keeping aside her ego and fight for a moment and said..
"PAUSE?"
Till then who was busy with his phone, hearing her say that word,he dropped the phone,and came near her,''Yeah baby, PAUSE, i can't bear this silence anymore..i missed you so much and he just engulfed her in a big warm hug and lifted her..''
''Do you know how badly i missed you !?'' Saying each word with a pause in between kissing her on her lips..
"Yeah me too Manik''
''I want our old self back, i want us back, we'll fly to Paris tonight?''
''what do you say''?
"anything for my jaan''
'' i'm ready''
''what about your office?'' she eyed him..
"Screw the office, my jaan is important right now''
Till then no fighting!
"deal?''
''Deal!!''
