"Turn around" Navya Di ordered n I obeyed turning in a circle while she tugged the hem of the long pink cloth in my petticoat.

"Hold this" She again said one thing or another while I obeyed her without any question as she's making me wear 'The Great Saree'.

'I mean, how did girls wrap this 6meters long around their body so comfortably. Mujhe toh dekh ke hi chakaar aa rahe hain!  

Woh toh Subha-Subha Navya Di aakar boli that I should wear saree for my first day, Uncle-Aunty n Dadi will be happy, issliye now she's helping me as I don't know how to wear it.
Meri Ammi bhi zyadatar saree nahi pahanti thi. So, I've never seen her wrapping this long thing! And no one taught me such a difficult job.'

"Done! This is how u make waist-folds n then tug it... like this! Do u get it?" She spoke while tugging the folds she made and looked up to get her answer.

I gave her a sheepish smile "Thoda sa!" I showed 'a little' gap between my thumb and forefinger.

She chuckled seeing my act "Thik hai! No problem it's not that difficult. you'll learn it after a few tries." She continued setting my saree while I stood there still like a mannequin and observe her.

"Waise... How was ur first night with Manik?" She asked while focusing on her work while I replayed my previous night!

'Manik is not that bad! In fact, he is sweet!' I thought.

"Ohhhh! Sweet n all hain?" She teased while I looked befuddled.

'Did I say it loud?'

"Oh! You're so cute" She smiled while I blushed lightly at her words.

"But, Tum chillaa kyu rahi thi, when I knocked the door of ur room?" She questioned and I slip back to my thought-land.

'Tu bhi bilkul Stupid hai Nandu!
I mean, itne bada bed main tujhe sirf Manik Ji ke upper hi sone ko jaga mili thi?
What he must be thinking about me? On the top, you screamed n pushed him as soon as u woke up on his chest. Pagal Nandu!

Wait! Did I just tell 'Manik Ji'? Seriously 'Ji'? Itna respect? Jissko tum Khadoos, Arrogant, Badtameez bula rahi thi, usko itnaaa respect??
You have lost it Nandu!'

"Kahan kho gayi?" Di's voice brings me back to land.

"Nahi! Kahin nahi! So, When will this be done?" I changed the topic to ask about the saree which I've been wearing for the last 20minutes standing like a statue.

"Almost... yes! Done..." She said adjusting the pallu and back away to eye me properly from head to toe... "Wah! You look beautiful in saree yaar!" She commented n I smiled turning to the mirror to see myself.

"Hmm... It really suits me. ...Thank you" I smile checking myself out while she left me to get some makeup and come down.

--------------------------------

I walked down after a long lecture from Dad n Cabir as to how to treat my wife, Nandini better; not to force her to anything(as if I'm abuser); give her time to adjust as she's very young; never shout or yell at her; solve her every problem calmly; give her space for her college life n take care of her needs... and so on.

We sat down at the dining while a delicious aroma of Kheer coming from the kitchen where women r present. Mom and Navya brought the dishes with the help of our servant and started serving.

"Aree wah! Badi acchi khoosbu kisse aarahi hai?" Cabir asked rubbing his palms hungry for the food.

"Aaj meri nayi bahu ne Kheer banai hai, apni Peheli Raashoi main!" Dadi commented.

"Navya Bhabhi ki toh Peheli Raashoi completed na?" Dhruv asked confused. It's just Mom-Dad, Dadi, Dhruv n Cavya at home as Mukbhi left yesterday night only.

"Navya Bahu nahi, Nandini Bahu ki baat kar rahi hun!" Dadi corrected him while I jerked my head.  Nandini?

I've not faced her since she kicked me out of my bed, and my room. Can you imagine it?

It's not like I took advantage of her; She was the one hugging me like I'm her teddy. Aur Ulta aisse chillaayi ki jaisse bhoot dekh liya ho! Pagal ladki!

"Nandini? Maa, Why did u ask her to cook? Woh bacchi hai abhi!" Dad's protested for his sweet daughter. Pata nahi kya magic kardiya hai mere Dad par?

"Raj, she said she knows cooking and we helped her too... Don't worry" Mom replied instead.

Before anyone could utter anything, I saw a figure in baby pink saree walked out of the kitchen with a bowl on her bangled hands...

'WOW' the only thing ran in my mind while I admire her from the toe to her hips, waist, then her waving breast, and her jeweled neck, and to her pink lips, toned skin with her black long hairs... A Perfect Indian Fairy!

"Wow, Nandu! you're looking gorgeous in saree!" Commented Cabir which made me acknowledge the fact that this Indian Fairy is non-other than Nandini! My wife!

My goodness!

"Areeyy wah beti! Bahut pyaari lag rahi ho!" Dad praised her while she smiled at everyone and served the kheer for everyone.

During the whole breakfast time, neither Nandu properly looks at Manik, nor did he. But they didn't stop stealing glances of each other when no one noticed them while being busy praising her dishes and talking randomly while eating.

"Manik-Nandini, Salini has invited u both for Pag Phera. You have to spend the night at her place as per the ritual. So, get ready to go" Raj announced after they have finished breakfast.

"But Dad, Is it necessary? I mean, we've not done many of rituals that Cabir-navya did. So, can we skip this too? I've to join the office too." Manik complains while Nandu just stood there silently. It's not that she wanted to go there either.

"I know. But since she has called today to call u both at her place, then u should at least go there for today. And after that, u must have already planned to shift back at ur penthouse, if I'm not wrong?" Raj asked to which Manik nodded.

"So final then. Go there and Nandini too will pack her books n stuff to bring back.
And yes! Take some bags from ur Mom that she'd prepared for her Samdhan (Child's MIL i.e: Salini)" Raj declared n left. While Manik started towards his in-law's house with his wife.

----------------------

When they arrived, they were welcomed gladly by Salini who looked so excited for their arrival. She immediately hugged Nandu n also showered some care n hospitality to her Jamai by bringing him tea n snacks which he denied politely as he just had his breakfast.

Maddy was about to leave for his job in Malhotra company when they arrived n his eyes got stuck at Nandini's exposed waist in saree.

"What an item?" he murmured inaudibly eyeing her sexy figure for the first time in saree. And Nandini was standing uncomfortably adjusting her saree while Manik's busy handing over the bags to Salini.

"Yeh kuch toffa(gifts), Mom gave for u" he said giving those gifts bags to Salini for which she's actually excited.  Salini knew how she's controlling herself from instantly jumping on them n opening the gifts, but she controlled!!

When suddenly Manik's eyes fell on Maddy whose intensely trying to watch his stepsis's body. Manik instantly felt like breaking his teeth with a punch.

"Nandini! Won't u show me ur room?" he asked suddenly making Nandini's head jerk to him.

"Go Nandini, take him ur room" Spoke Salini spontaneously and Nandini agreed walking ahead to her room with Manik following her.

Pushing the door to her room, Nandu entered while consciously looking around her congested, imperfect room comparing it with Manik's luxurious room. 'What will Manik think of her room?' She's thinking.

But Manik, who least interested in watching her room, pulled her by wrist after closing the door behind and made her face him.

"What r u doing?" Nandini question trying to take her hand back from his grip with a painful face which caused Manik to leave her wrist.

While she rubbed her wrist to ease the pain, he backed a little and stand there in attitude watching her.

"Change ur saree" he declared nonchalantly to which she jerked her head to eye him questioningly.

"Don't give me those looks n move fast." He ordered and stood there crossing his arms on his chest. She obeyed him, taking her salwar-suit from the cupboard and moving to the washroom while giving him looks in between as if he's grown horns on his head.

"Khadoos!
kitni beautiful toh lag rahi hun iss saree main. But no! 'Change ur saree'... Idiot kahin ka!
Mujhe kya? Wasee bhi main iss 'long canvas' main utna comfortable nahi hun. Kar leti hun change, Happy?" She murmured to herself while getting inside the washroom.

After some time she came out and Manik too walked out of her room along with her, only to see Mother-son talking something, standing near the gate.

"I've an important work to complete. So, I'll be back before dinner then" Manik informed Salini walking to them.

"Right! Work is important warna paise kahan se aaenge? Maddy bhi abhi nikal rahi tha" Salini said pointing to her son who's all ready in formals n bag to go. And Manik n Maddy walked out towards their car; Maddy's Alto car & Manik's Audi.

Maddy's greedy mind dance at the sight of Audi's owner being his brother-in-law, son of Raj Malhotra so he played an act "Oh Shit! My car is broke. Now how'll I go to the office?" his act gained Manik's attention.

"Can u drop me in ur car? Anyways, we r going to the same office, Malhotra Companies." He added thinking of getting advantage of being close to Manik Malhotra in front of his office colleagues.

"I'd have dropped u... but unfortunately, I'm going to a different place right now." He said opening the car door.

"Oh! No problem! I'll get a taxi." Maddy sounded disappointed while Manik nodded at him getting into his car.

"Make sure to be on time at the office. Late-comers are not entertained in my office" Manik spoke the last thing scrolling the car's window before fleeing away leaving a disheartened n insulted Maddy behind.

As soon as Manik left, Salini instantly checked her gifts; many expensive pieces of jewelry, sweets, sarees, and make-up kits of different luxurious brands which she'd never heard before in her life.
She got herself involved in trying everything n showing off to her friend circle while Nandini made herself busy in packing everything in her room into cartoon boxes.

It's almost dinner time when he's returning to his in-law's home... Parking his car beside the house, Manik came out locking it behind. He walked in through the small waking lawn lighted with street lights, pushing the steel gate.

He was about to ring the doorbell when he heard some noise from inside and being curious to check it, he moved to the nearby window n peeped in...

"Umm-- This butter chicken is bland! Are u trying to insult me in front of my Jamai? Do it" Salini ordered furiously while tasting the dishes kept on the dining table.

"Hmm... Baki sab thik hai... Aur puri kahan hai? U'll cut my nose in front of him." She shouted while Nandini ran to the kitchen n brings the puris.

"Yeh kya hai? Why these r not round n swelled up? Are u going to serve this type of food to rich people like him? Go and make it once again... and perfectly" She yelled n Nandini just obliged to her while praying inwardly to end this day so that she could go back as soon as possible.

Manik felt bad for her seeing this and silently walked to the door n rang the bell to which Salini opened the door putting a smile at him.

"Arey Manik beta! Aagaye! Jaao fresh hojao, hum khana lagate hain!" She said showing the way to the attached washroom.

Then he came for dinner n sat beside Salini n Maddy in front while Nandini served them puris which she freshly preparing.

"Tum bhi aao, saath main khane!" Manik spoke to Nandu when she didn't sat with them rather turn to go to the kitchen. She'd never sat with her steps before, so she eyed Salini.

"Han han! Nandu, bring those puris u kept in kitchen n sit beside ur husband" Salini instantly eye-gestured her to bring the deformed puris she made before n not make any scene.

"Food is very tasty, Nandu. Even the kheer u made in the morning was delicious" Manik praised while eating which gained everyone's attention. And Nandini felt very good hearing his praise n him calling her 'Nandu'. She smiled with a thank u.

"Han! I told her not to work when she came to her home for a day, but she's so stubborn n said that she wanted to cook for her husband. Such a sweet girl she is!" Salini faked a smile to Nandini while Manik knew her lies but remained silent not wanting to create any problem in their stay.

Soon they finished their dinner n Manan went into Nandini's room to sleep.

As they entered closing the door behind, Manik for the first time looked around her room, but this time, he saw mostly cartoon boxes filling the room leaving some free space to walk around n hop on the bed.

"You've literally packed ur whole room." Manik commented moving towards the bed.

"Yes! Everything in this room belongs to me" She said following him and saw him sit on the bed.

"There is one problem!" She spoke nervously while Manik shifted his gaze from boxes to her face.

"There is only this one bed here and one pillow, one blanket too. Pillow n blanket is not the issue, I can manage without them, But where will you sleep?" She added eyeing the bed.

Manik too turns to see the bed; it's a single bed, a wide one though, but it definitely couldn't accommodate two adults on it with appropriate distance.

"On the bed, of course" Manik replied turning his head to her.

"Then where will I sleep? There is no sofa or anything over here!" She asked with big eyes showing her room which contains a bed, cupboard, and a study table n chair as only furniture around.

"I don't know" Manik shrugged laying on the bed on his back. "Maybe on the floor" He added making Nandini stare at him as if he's a ghost.

"Why would I sleep on the floor instead of my bed? And there is no space on the floor also" She pointed the boxes laying on the floor leaving no more space than to walk.

"Then we both can adjust on this bed!" Manik scooped a bit towards the wall making space for her.

"But..." She muttered as that space on the bed is very less. Even if they adjust, they surely will touch each other's bodies.

"Look Nandini! In my house, we both adjusted on my bed, likewise we have to adjust in ur bed too. After that, from tomorrow u'll have ur separate room in the penthouse." He explained to her and she knew he's right. They have no choice either way.

With a bit of hesitation, she too lay down beside him sidewise, showing him back. He kept on glancing at her back n long hairs for a while before adjusting himself n her to sleep comfortably rather than being stiff n conscious about not to touch each other by staying still in sidewise awkward position forever.

He slightly lifted her head by pushes his left arm under her neck and his right hand pulled her back closer to his chest by her waist, joining their bodies. He pulled the blanket over them till their shoulders and again encircled his arms around her, nuzzling in her sweet-smelling hairs over her neck.
She does stiffen at first due to his sudden pull, but then, she knew he wanted them to sleep comfortably on this single bed.

Getting into this position; spooning position, Manik has an alternative motive too.

Yes!
He wanted to check, the cause for the morning twist of his junior. He was pretty sure it's not by just looking at Nandini; he's seen her before also, so many times, but didn't feel it.

Then what triggered this sudden twist down there out of blue after months without any of his efforts? He wondered.

Placing a wild, stupid guess, he thought for a second 'Could it because he had Nandini in his arms, closer to him, body touching, he's definitely liking it, maybe that's the cause?'

He'd brushed off such thoughts though... but when he found the golden chance tonight, he thought to gave it a try. No harm in trying!

And guess what?

His wild guess is correct!

Even Nandini felt his little boner on her ass cheeks... Her face turned red when she figured out what it is.

"Um- That" She whispered not knowing what to say without getting embarrassed and decided to keep mum and pull her lower body a bit apart from his.

He felt her move and understood, but didn't say anything to create any awkwardness between them.

And soon they doze off in each other's arms finding warmth and peace for lifetime...
