Manyata's POV
Damini served everything to Sagar Ji and he was looking at her with so much love.
Sahil was also looking at them with a strangely wistful way. I was a bit hesitant in doing the same as Damini.
Swati passed the food to Sahil and Samar Ji.
They all started to enjoy their food. Everything was very nice. Damini had literally done almost everything on her own. I just gave her a few tips and suggestions. She could definitely cook well.
Damini looked at me and I smiled at her, assuring her silently that everything was amazing and delicious.
Sahil was just eating and ogling at me. I was getting very uncomfortable with his staring. He even winked with a naughty smile. I decided not to look at him.
" Wow !!! Manu, it is so good to eat, food made by you, after such a long time. I really love you yaar. " Samar ji said. Sahil hit him and glared. Swati and Sagar Ji laughed.
" Hmm... it is aweso
Manyata's POV" What are you making?? The aroma is driving all of us crazy. " Samar Ji came into the kitchen and said." She is making her mom's special recipe. Lapsi (Sweet porridge). It seems to be so tempting, she just added dry fruits to it. It is ready. "" Can I taste it please? " Samar Ji said.I nodded and served it to him in small quantity. He tasted it. He literally closed his eyes to savour it." That good?? " Damini asked and picked up another spoon and tasted it before Samar Ji even say anything." Wow !! Awesome. Can I have this instead of food, please? " Samar ji said." No, you eat food, she made it for me. " she glared at him." Please yaar, you are my sweet little sister, let me have it. "" No... And for your kind information, I am as old as you are. So I am not little. " she said with a smile.We served food. Everyone sit down to eat. Damini ate only the porridge." Da
Manyata's POVIt was evening, so he asked me to get ready and ran to his room after kissing my cheek.Oh, God!! I blushed and then shook my head.I went to my room, took out a dress for me and went to take a shower.I wore a light mauve coloured dress, applied very light makeup, kept my hair open and went downstairs. He was waiting for me and the moment he saw me, his eyes lit up." Wow !! You are looking ravishing. "" Thanks, you are also not looking bad. "Liar... He is looking very handsome.My inner voice said. She spoke after many days...Shut up !!" Thanks, shall we go?? " He asked and we both left for the restaurant.The ambience was very nice, Sahil had already called to reserve a table. It was beautiful and romantic. He must have asked for a different setting. As our table was arranged on the balcony, from where we could enjoy the performance of the live band and ye
Manyata's POV" Will you tell me everything about you, please?? I want to know everything about you. " He said.I told him, " My parents never stopped me from doing anything. My dad wanted me to study business but I didn't want. He let me free, to do whatever I wanted. Though he never approved of me, being a photographer. " I also told him about my professional journey and experience." Did you ever thought about getting married?? " He asked." No, I never gave it a thought. "" But you must have thought something about your would-be husband... " he asked looking forward into my eyes." No, but like any other girl, I wanted that he should love me unconditionally. He should always be there with me in everything. He must be absolutely loyal to me. " I said and he looked away." You must have been very disappointed with me then. Because I was such a jerk and was not at all like that." He said in a slow and sad voic
Sahil's POV" I will son... Very soon. Take care. " he said and disconnected the call. I turned and looked at her, she was sobbing.I went to her and took her in my arms. She burst into tears and buried her face in my chest." Shh... He will be absolutely fine very soon, Vikram also said that. Don't worry, he said he will come back very soon. " I said and she looked at me with her red eyes." What else did he say to you?" She asked like a cute child." He asked me to take care of you, as you are a little crackpot. He also said sorry because he got me married to his very feisty daughter, who can even slap me. Well... he was a bit late in informing me about that. Isn't it? " I smiled and winked at her." Yeah... Shut up ok?? She said but started smiling. " She was such a cute and lovely girl." I miss them. You know when Sagar Ji said that uncle was coming back from the USA, I got very emotional.
Manyata's POV" I know and I accept that I messed up everything in the past. But I am trying to change myself. Don't I have the right to get something for my wife too? Ok fine, do whatever you want. Keep it or throw it. " He said and went to his room.He seemed to be very upset. I was still shocked at his outburst. I didn't mean to hurt him. But I guess, I did.I just said that because I had lots and lots of dresses. Moreover, he was my husband, but we were not like a normal couple. So, I felt uncomfortable that he bought 3 dresses for me.I was not used to of it. But he has been trying to get things normal between us and I messed up everything. I should not have said that.I thought of going to talk to him but then I thought that I should go to talk to him with something he loves a lot. I rushed to the kitchen to make something.Only halwa could be prepared in 10-15 mins. So I started preparin
Sahil's POV" Then why were you grinning like a Cheshire cat? " Manayta asked.Shit !! Be ready to be killed by your slap queen, Sahil Malhotra." Nothing honey... See the food has been delivered, let's eat. I have already set the table. "" Are you trying to distract me from the topic?? " she said." No "" Then tell me... "" Let's have food first I am very hungry... "" No, tell me first... "" Don't be stubborn like a baby. Dinner first. I swear, I will tell you later. " I said and she nodded reluctantly.Think of something to save your head, or she would serve your head on the platter as dessert to you.Hey, how weird !!! How would I eat my own head?Seriously ??? Sahil, you have gone crazy since you met her. What happened to that over smart man, who could handle so many girls at a time. And here you can't even handle this girl whom you thought to be pla
Manyata's POVHe seemed to be in a very good mood today. We enjoyed the journey with some light conversation and music.He stopped the car somewhere in the midway, we had a light breakfast there. We shared food, laughed and enjoyed a lot.It was about 9:30 AM when we reached Chandigarh.He stopped the car in front of the bungalow. We got out of the car and went towards the door. But aunty was already standing there just outside the door. Her happiness knew no bounds. She welcomed me with open arms. Then she went inside and welcomed me in the Indian style.I still remember how emotional I had become when I saw that aunty welcomed Damini with so much love.I had felt bad that it was not meant for me as my husband had discarded me.But now my eyes were moist again to see that I also was a part of this lovely family. And they welcomed me in their lives and home with love." Welcome home beta... I a
Manyata's POVSwati started showing all the dresses and outfits, but I was thinking about how would I live in the same room with him?Sagar Ji and Sahil came downstairs. Sahil was grinning like anything and Sagar Ji was trying not to laugh.I just kept looking anywhere but at Sahil as he was ogling me with a big smile on his face.He was so shameless... What would others think about us??Everyone got engrossed in looking at the dresses and outfits. Sagar Ji and aunty had not seen them. Swati and Damini were showing all the dresses with enthusiasm. Sagar Ji also loved the outfits Damini got for him." So... would you like to go and see our room ?? He said very close to my ear. I got startled as I was so engrossed in my own thoughts that I didn't realise, he was standing just behind me and when he bent to say this my back touched his chest.I took a step away from him but he also took another ste
