"Rishabh, uh, where's Rishabh? I forgot to ask you." Manik stuttered and looked away from her. Nandini mumbled something about her chachi and the workers and all but ran away from there.
She found a sofa after walking a little while and it took her all her strength not to lie down on the couch. Nandini Murthy was exhausted mentally even after being completely fine a few minutes ago. Two words were haunting her, Manik and Alya.
After so many attempts, the almost kiss did not bother her, what bothered her was her reason not to kiss him and somewhere in her mind, she knew that she would've let him kiss her, heck, she would've kissed him back had she not remembered that he had a girlfriend. Until the last moment, she even forgot that he had a girlfriend and had she not closed her eyes, she would've probably kissed him.
That is what scared her the most. The attempted kiss didn't scare her, but the fact that she would've kissed him if not for Alya terrified her. Her train of thoughts reminded her of the first kiss when she felt nothing but absolute hatred for the monster and today, she was actually contemplating kissing him. Above all, she was scared that she was falling for the monster fast, and hard.
