MayUr FF - The Blossoming Magic || Part 18 - Pg 92 - Page 60

Mayank didn't sleep the whole night, he was wiping off every tear that was coming out of her closed eyes. As she slept crying in his arms, he led her to the room, properly tucking her , he lied beside her, plainly staring her. The whole night he kept on ruffling her hair, as an attempt to deepen her slumber.

It felt as if there was no sleep left for mayank, he wanted to see nupur, till the end of time. This calm peaceful look, this comforted feeling of being cuddled near him. There could be nothing more serene in this world.

The room was being lighted dimly by sunrays, and he pulled nupur close, hiding her face in his chest, so not a single ray should disturb her.

It was about 10 in the morning, when nupur showed some signs of waking up. Mayank moved a bit away, so she could stretch her arms.

Nupur was coming out of the slumber, she could feel her mind being very light, maybe due to the endless tears she shed last night, and the hold of arms around her gave her deep pleasure.

She opened her eyes, to find herself under the soft gaze of mayank, "good morning", he kissed her forehead and she smiled, cuddling close to him. "how is my doll this morning?', he was still ruffling her hair and she smiled and blushed on the word doll,

"thek hon', mayank sensed her voice being still weak , but he knew she would need time to normalize.

Nupur gained complete senses, and the first thing she saw after waking up was the time piece, "10 baj gaye??", she gasped and looked at him, "ap ka office?', she was really shocked, while mayank slowly pulled her back, "nupur I have holidays, yaar meri shaadi hoyi hai, I am entitled to some holidays", he said and nupur blushed deep. "tu kal

"kal meeting thi, otherwise I am on leave", he announced and slipped in the covers, "ye soney ka time nahi hai, it's morning!", she giggled as he closed his eyes, holding her tight.

"acha nupur, it's just 10", he said and nupur also lied down , "so how many holidays u have?"

"10 days",

Nupur got ecstatic hearing 10 days, she would be spending all this time with him and it would surely be no less than a bliss.

"and without wasting anymore time, we are going for our honeymoon today."

These words from mayank shocked her and she sat up, "honey moon?", her eyes got wide with amazement, and mayank started giggling, 'now what is it to get so amazed?", he pulled her back and she fell on him, and he started tucking her dis-shelved hair behind her ears, "aj dophar ko ja rahe hain, it's a rest house near Mumbai, on 3 hours drive, it's a beautiful place, away from the city, total peace.", he explained and at the same time observed nupur's eyes going in some trance, 'u like such places na?', he asked bringing her back to where she was , 'hmmm", he nodded shying and mayank kissed her forehead, "great, now go and start packing, aur mujhe sone do", he took the blanket over him and laughing, nupur got off from the bed.

Mayank removed the blanket and was constantly looking at her, she was blushing on her own, the color on her cheeks was looking so adorable and it was making his heart skip a beat. He didn't want to sympathize with her, that is why he didn't mention anything about last night. He wanted to be a companion with whom she could share her pains, not the one who would sympathize with her, because what she lacked in her life was not under her control, it can happen with anyone.

It was about 12, when nupur was done with the packing, 'mujhe ajeeb lag raha hai!", she said as they were about to go down stairs , "hum kia kahen gey sab se..

"yahi k hum honeymoon pe ja rahe hain, is main kia problem hai?', mayank was unable to understand her fears now, "nahi wo.., she nervously started playing with her duppatta and he pulled her from her waist, "hmmm,. tu tumhain sharm a rahi hai?", he asked naughtily and nupur nodded plainly.

"oh God nupur, sab ko pata hai hum jane wale hain, all married couples go..it's okay! Relax! "

He said and headed out of the room, while nupur nervously followed him.

They all were having breakfast, as thankfully today gunjan wasn't in a hurry, "mayank how many holidays do u have?" Mr sharma asked from behind the newspaper.

""dad its 10 days!", mayank replied normally. "hmmm, tu beta tum dono ko kahin bhair nahi jana hai, go out on a holiday, ",

"dad we are planning to go today", mayank replied, and nupur wanted to dissapear. She could feel gunjan smirking at her, and it was all so awkward

"haan, haan, zaroor jao, wasie bhi itni thori chuti hai":, Mrs Sharma gleefully added.

"mom 10 din kam hain?', mayank asked in a surprise, while gunjan poked nupur and whispered to her, "ku di, 10 din kafi hain yaa..

"gunjan!!!", she sternly whispered back.

Gunajn so wanted to tease nupur with honey moon, but she kept quiet due to her dad and mayank.

"uhm, bhai kahan ja rahe ho?', gunjan asked in her normal tone, but couldn't keep the naughtiness aloof, "we are going at a country side near Mumbai", this time mayank replied from behind the newspaper and gunjan got ecstatic, "OMG!!, COUNTRY SIDE..HOW..RO..", suddenly she remembered her dad's presence and molded the word from romantic to, "HOW ROCKING!". She breathed a sigh of relief on being able to mold and nupur passed her a stern look.

Nupur decided that being quiet during the whole conversation was the best option!!. She wasn't able to raise to her head from her plate tu bolna tu door ki baat hai.

It was after lunch, that all their luggage was transferred to their car.

"phonch k phone karna, aur roz phone karna, aur apna bohat khayal rakhna", Mrs Sharma was enchanting prayers on both of them and constantly advising, "ok mom!!, kar len, gey", mayank was getting irritated with all the prolonged praying session, while nupur was just seeing Mrs Sharma so affectionately praying for them, just like her mom used to do.

"chalo jao ab!", finally Mrs Sharma announced

"finally!!", all of them breathed a sigh of relief except for nupur, "kisi ko qadr hi nahi hai meri, bus nupur ko hai, apna bohta khyal rakhna beta, ", she kissed her forehead and hugged her, "mom ap bhi apna khayal rakhna, aur agr kashi bai nahi ayi gi tu lar k ap apna BP high mat karna", she said and all of them giggled.

"bye beta enjoy ursleves, "Mr Sharma stroked her hair, "bye dad, take care"

"bye both of you, jaldi aney ki bilkul zorat nahi hai", gunjan whispered as she hugged them and mayank hit on his head, "bohat ziyada bolna nahi shoro kar diya,?", mayank glared at her while she pouted and hugged him again.

Finally Mayank & Nupur were off to their honeymoon.

"hum kab phonchey gey", nupur asked helplessly, as it was exact 3 hours since their journey started, "kamal hai nupur, atleast let the needle move on from 3 hours", he giggled and nupur frowned. "I hate long journeys!",

"hmmm..don't worry, the place is worth it, trust me", he made her sure and nupur blushed again, "u have seen the palce?

"nahi, just saw on the brochures"

'hmmm.."She sighed, again seeing the endless road which was just not ending. Although the initial part of the journey was full of teasing and blushses, but this last half was making her impatient, the journey was pronging three hours.

But every journey has a destination, and both of them did reach their destination.

It was a beautiful place, a cottage surrounded in mountains and the mist all around due to evening, was giving it a look of an enchanted palace.

They moved in, as they were given the keys by the manager. It was a separate compound, with a small garden in the front and a complete home unit, with a bed room, lounge, kitchen and a small living area.

"this is so beautiful", nupur exclaimed as she pulled away the curtains, opening the window, to the serene valley.

"I told you", mayank hugged her from back and kissed her cheek.

This honeymoon was turning out to be more of a cooking class for them.

Nupur please mujhe bhi sikha do" , mayank pleaded her in a low tone, entering the kitchen while nupur got confused , "kia sikha don?'

"cooking ," he hugged her from back and resting his chin on her shoulder he sighed,!," I so fascinate cooking, per mujhe bilkul nahi ati, and mom and gunjan don't even allow me to enter kitchen", he was still sad and nupur started giggling, "pata hai mujhe, gunjan hamesha kehti thi k bhai kitchen main jaye tu toofan a jata hai"

"wohi tu!, tum sikha do please", he again pleaded and nupur turned in his arms, to face him, "thek hai, aj ap cooking karo, I'll supervise", she proposed and kissed his cheek, and he was ecstatic.

"really?", his eyes started shining and nupur nodded.

So, then started the cooking session of Mayank. He was really bad, he didn't even know how to stir properly, but nupur slowly guided her and she made sure she was not impatient at any time, she really wanted him to enjoy.

Finally Mayank's first ever dish, i.e., dum aloo was ready, "chalo ab main serve..

"ssshh", mayank pinned her against the counter and kissed her cheek, "let me allow to serve my lady, u sit on the dinning table, I 'll serve"

"per main..

"nahi"
, he again kissed her cheek and this time picked her up and led to the dining table. Nupur was sjut smiling on his cute ways, he served and sat in front of nupur, carefully observing her facial expressions as she ate the first bite, "kaisa hai?' he asked nervously, but nupur quietly kept on eating.

"batao na nupur kaisa hai?', he again asked, but nupur was silent, "mujhe ik bite main pata nhai chalta hai!", she ate one more bite and winked at mayank. Both of them exchanged a hi- five and broke in laughter.

Mayank didn't ask again, but nupur's kiss as he was cleaning dishes, clearly told him that his dinner was tasty,and after this encouraging start, mayank accompanied her in all the cookings!

, "ye ap kia dekh rahe ho?", nupur asked in a terrified voice, as mayank was deeply engrossed in AIR CRASH INVESTIGATIONS on National geographic, "nupur chup", he increased the volume and nupur slowly moved away, giving scared looks to TV, where a voice over was swiftly explaining how the plane crashed.

"koi achi chez..

"Nupur!, " he glared at her and nupur pouted ," ye kia baat hoyi, mujh se aisi khofnaak chezain nahi dekhi jati", she stamped her feet and went out of the room.

She went in the garden huffing. It was very chilly and after a minute's anger, she was feeling cold, but then suddenly a pair of warm arms enclosed her and her heart skipped a beat, but she was angry!

"khatam ho gaya ap ka wo itna ajeeb programme",she complained, still being stiff, wheras her mind so wanted to hug him back. He was making her nerves go beresk, as his lips were playfully teasing her neck skin., "hmmm", he whispered as his grip was turning strong and his teasing was turning passionate.

"Shukr hai!, I wonder how u watch such depressing things", she managed to speak, while her mind budging her to shut the world around and hug him back and return the passion he was showering on her.

"main tu bus achi chezain..",she again tried to speak but mayank made her face him and glared at her, "don't u think u are speaking so much, we are not here to crib about my TV choices", he spoke angrily, adding the last bit naughtily and nupur bit her lower lip, "then what are we here for", she asked innocently widening her eyes, which were so clearly showing the naughty twinkle. For a second, mayank got shocked that was it really nupur flirting, but them he carried on.

He leaned to kiss her, "u want me to explain?', he asked as he pulled away and nupur's cheeks were flushed with red color, and her palms started boiling hot as she looked back in his eyes, reading what all they were conveying to her, "yes"
,s he carried on her with her flirting ignoring all the blushes, "hmmm, how do u want me to explain?", he leaned in her neck inhaling her fragrance, while she crawled her hand up his collar , "verbally or should I explain practically?", he asked kissing her ear, and now nupur's mind stopped working on flirting and she just wanted to flow in the moment, as he was placing soft kisses on her neck. "I love you ", she spoke in a soft breathless voice, and mayank moved away to see a tiny tear rolling down her cheek, he kissed it and the other one too that was following, " I love you too, and from now onwards, no tears", and saying this he picked her up

Each and every touch of mayank was an unbelievable softness, he was so tender .

It was silk brushing on rose petals.

His closeness made her realize the true depth of his love, he wanted to pull out all the sadness he saw in her eyes, and she in return let all her feelings to come out, as they were completely blossomed by his closeness. It was a slice of heaven.

Rab ne barsayi'mujh pe sari khudayi..

It was truly God showering his highest bounties on both of them. Their companionship for each other was no less than a bliss. Something which they both were longing since childhood. Although apparently mayank had no problems and lacking in his life, but after nupur entered his life, he realized what he had been missing, a chirpy friend, who would break his anger that shoots up on every small problem. The person who can calm him in situations of panic and someone who could make him see the good side of every thing.

These 10 days gelled them in a way that even they both had completely forgotten the line which apparently made them two different people.

"u don't want to go back na?', nupur asked as she was packing for their return and mayank was sitting with a sad face. "is it necessary to ask again and again!", he glared at her and she giggled. "is main ghusa honey wali kaunsi baat hai?", she pouted and mayank came and hugged her , "mom thek kehti thi, 10 din kaam they", he winked and this time she glared, "don't u even think of prolonging the stay, I am already missing everyone so much! ", she declared and mayank left her.

'acha tu u don't enjoy my company, tumhain tu ghar ki yaad a rahi hai", he faked sadness and sat on the sofa sighing, nupur smiled on his cuteness and sat beside him , "u don't know how much I enjoyed?", she asked widening her eyes and mayank pulled her in his lap, "no I don't, how about u explain!", he said still in an angry tone and nupur giggled, "we don't have much time now na, we have to leave, how about I explain when we reach home", she placed her arms around his neck and moved close, "I'll explain calmly and elaborately", she smirked and mayank couldn't help smile, "u have turned a complete flirt!, he kissed her and nupur giggled, "let's go home", she pleaded, and mayank finally smiled fully and both of them headed to home.
