Chereads / A train to my marriage / Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Yes, I have them but it would be better if you don't watch it with me .I scream while watching horror movies although I don't Even watch most of the parts .I cover my eyes all the time so that if anything shitty happens I can close my eyes immediately.

I say .

Okay then let's watch your romantic Korean movie he says grinning again

By the way what is your name ? I ask

You don't know my name ?now he does not seem very pleased

We didn't have a moment to get properly introduced before ,I explain .

Hmm okay ...my name is Manik ...Manik Malhothra, he says stretching out his hand towards me .

And I am nandini ..I say reaching out to shake his hand .

As I touch his hands ,a quiver runs through my body .His hand is very warm,in sharp contrast to my cold hands .

It is always risky to watch romantic movies with parents or with a hot guy like him. Suddenly ,the hero and heroine are getting closer on the screen ,and I begin to feel very conscious ,even embarrassed ,I try to move so that I can fast forward the movie ,but I cannot .Now they are becoming wild on the screen .both souls becomes one and at last they falls on bed exhausted ..

The hero then kisses the heroine gently on her forehead .Oh...this forehead kissing scene is my favourite .And thus the movie goes on .

Slyly ,I try to peek at Mr perfects face .he is calm but I can see his facial muscles clenching as he tries to hide his smile.

The movie finishes at 1 am

He gets up to leave

Goodnight nandini

Goodnight Mr Perr...err....Manik

Narrowing his eyes he leaves the room

The next morning I got out of my room, brush my teeth ,pick up my sneakers and head out to the fields .it is a very cold foggy December morning so I'm wrapped up in thick wollens.

What was I doing last night ? Talking to myself . Even now my thoughts are focused on him .I know he is handsome but still I'm sure he is a narrow minded control freak .

As I remain lost in my own thoughts  my foot suddenly slams against  a heavy stone .I stumble into a slushy part of path .apart from landing like a fool into the slush ,I realise I have hurt my foot .

Need any help miss ?

Oh its him !what is he doing here? Why is he always there to rescue me from my own disasters ! Oh!

I clear my throat ,I can manage I say ,trying not to look at his face

You are very stubborn nandini.Just give me your hand.

I offer my hand hesitantly .He clutches it tightly to help me get up ;again I can feel the cold even more .....

I stand up ,stumbling holding his shoulder for support.

As he see my pair is hurt he suddenly takes me in his arms ..am shocked before I could protest he walks to home

As we enter the house. Everybody is surprised to see both of us that too in that position .

Hey what happened ?asked mom

Putting me down he said  nothing mom your dear princess fell again,he says grinning .everybody laughs at this

Huh! How dare he ? And why is he calling my mother mom

Oh! My suspicion was right

Or maybe not!

I must know for certain .So next time I find him  alone I confront him. He is sitting at a desk and doing some accounting work .

I want to talk to you I say

Nandini ,I am busy right now can we talk later ?

My big negative point is my egoistic attitude .

Why did you call my mother "mom"? I ask

He looks up. Is that a problem ? He asks keeping his accounting book aside .Standing up ,he then comes close to me .
