MN * YOU & ME - It's MAGIC. Part 18 - Pg 88. - Page 4

"come in"

The voice said again and coming back to the real world from the wild imaginations of his touch, she slowly opened the door and stepped in.

"Welcome ", he was ready to welcome her, smiling and for a second nupur really thought her heart stopped.

Dressed in a grey formal suit, with his shirt sleeves pulled up to his elbows and collar button open. Jet black hair neatly set and face cut perfectly carved, he was smiling, not a smile actually, his lips were just bended a bit from the 180 degree measurement so the position couldn't be termed as straight.

But thankfully nupur's trance didn't last longer because he closed the file in his hand and placed it away on the table, and nupur fumbled, and wanted to smile, but could only manage a slight bend in her lips, mirroring his reaction.

"Please come ..", he was respectful and walked towards the sitting area in the cabin, and nupur followed him with slow steps.

"Please have a seat", he signaled her to sit by extending his arm towards the sofa, and this time letting the bend of her lips get a bit deep, she sat down, and as she did, he sat down on the sofa opposite her.

"So, you reached here comfortably. Any problems?", he asked seriously and nupur could just shake her head in disapproval, murmuring a , "no, thank you"

"good!,", he said, "so firstly, coffee or tea or any juices..

"no thank you", she said, now relaxing herself on the sofa, she wasn't this nervous that she couldn't even sit properly.

"hmm , is that you are not fond of the things I offered or you are being formal?", his voice was crisp, and nupur who always lacked behind in taunting and passing snide remarks, fumbled, "ummm .. no. . I just..

She tried to think something equally crisp to answer, but then remembering her father's advice of not to pretend, she just smiled, "I just don't feel like having anything "

"not even a conversation with me?", he asked seriously, leaving nupur speechless again.

He was too quick with all these remarks.

"umm .. no .. I just ..",

she was struggling for words and while her tries, he saw his lips curving completely in a smile and this time she didn't go in any trance, because his smile had a hint of mocking. In a flash of a second she felt her eye pockets getting wet. He had the same glance she had faced many times since her childhood, glances which quietly analyzed her complexion, glances which used to tear apart her heart, glances which used to tell her that no matter what tries she will do, she will just end up being an ordinary girl, a girl who was not beautiful. A girl who cannot enjoy any attention and love because she didn't look good, a girl who was even afraid to smile, because she was not beautiful.

Why on earth did she think that this person would be different, he was yet another member of this society who was critically analyzing her, someone who is mocking her on her dusky complexion, someone ..

"tears??",

Suddenly his voice made her blink her eyes, letting those forming tears to flow but she was too quick to wipe them off, but he was even quick too notice.

"are you happy so crying, or sad or scared?", he asked and nupur looked in his eyes to find that the question was asked sincerely.

"nothing, something went in my eyes", she said turning towards her bag, with an intention of taking out a tissue, but before she could even un-zip her bag, a soft velvet box was extended towards her, "here ..", he said politely and nupur pulled out a couple of tissues from them and wiped off her tears.

"umm, well .. this surely was not the way I would have thought to meet my fiance", he sighed and , embarrassed, nupur quickly wiped her tears, "I am sorry, I don't know what went in my eyes", she said, making sure nothing in her heart was visible on her face and this earned her a smile from him.

"okay then, I think beating round the bush isn't suiting us, so coming straight to the point, I hope you don't have any problem from this marriage?", he was yet again blunt and with those deep brown eyes intently staring at her, she felt her going at loss of words yet again.

"any problem, any apprehension, anything you want to say, please go ahead, i am all ears to listen", he added all this and nupur swolled a lump in her throat.

She didn't have any problems with this marriage. Nothing at all, she was happy, indeed very happy blushing and all, but just now, what she saw in his eyes, the mocking ..

'you think too much", he sighed, relaxing back on his seat.

"I don't have any problems, I trust my father's choice", she said it, and was amazed that' she said it in one go and the curve of his lips was constant.

"and you are not interested in forming your own choice?', he said with his eyes searching her face strictly but this was not the topic nupur could get confuse on, she had firm believes over this.

"I trust my father, and I believe he can choose the best for me, better than what I'll choose for myself", she said looking back in his eyes and he breathed deep., "okay then, no problems at all, great!!, I also trust my parents", he said breathing a sigh of relief,

"you know my mom is very very fond of you, and I was thinking if you are not happy with the marriage then I'll have to think ways to woe you bcz I had to fulfill my mother's wish", he said with a sense of comfort on his face and suddenly nupur felt her heart glow, she had already been a sense of comfort for her husband, something she always wished to be for her life partner.

"so now as things are peaceful!, lets have lunch", he said getting up and nupur also followed his gesture,

"lets leave", he smiled and nervous, nupur smiled back.

Mayank took his coat and pulling his sleeves back to full, he wore over the coat and nupur was left staring, he was just SO HANDSOME, but then observing his smirk , she immediately turned her face away, biting her lower lip, however this only led to an increase in his smirk.

Nupur took a deep breath, and just when she was about to turn and smile normally, she felt his breath on her ear, " someone's falling for my looks", he whispered huskily and nupur thought her heart would pump out of her body, because next he slipped his arm across her waist, pulling her out of the cabin, leaving her with no other option but to stare him again.
