What was David's reaction after Nathan's remonstration of a story?

Nathan's parable has achieved its intended purpose. David has, in effect, indicted himself. After his sin was brought out in the open, David penned what is now Psalm 51. In it, David poured out his heart, revealing the depth of his repentance.

Nabal's abusive words came to the attention of his wife, Abigail. Perhaps this was not the first time she had had to intercede and act as peacemaker for Nabal. In any case, Abigail acted immediately. Without telling Nabal, she gathered provisions-including five sheep and an abundance of food, and went out to meet David in the wilderness. (1 Samuel 25:18-20) When Abigail caught sight of David, she at once prostrated herself before him and warned David against taking hasty action that he would later regret. (1 Samuel 25:23-31)

Throughout the novel he expresses his feelings for her in various ways, and asks her to marry him.

The episode in David's life serves as an encouragement to all who have fallen into serious sin. By confessing our sin and showing sincere repentance, we can regain our most precious possession, our relationship with God. The momentary pain and shame we may have to endure is far better than the anguish caused by remaining silent, or the dire consequence of allowing ourselves to become hardened in a rebellious course. (Psalm 32:9) Rather, we can experience the warm forgiveness of a loving, merciful God, "the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort." (2 Corinthians 1:3)
