Trust - To both of them, Love is trust. Trust that the other person will never let you fall, that they will always believe in you, that they will never let you down, that they will put you above all else.
Today, Nandini told Manik for the third time, that she trusts him. She told him that she knew he will never let her fall. She told him that she loved him.
Today Manik told her trusted her, when he caught 5 fire flies in a jar which he gave to her to keep safe. When he told her that he looked after his hand for her, because he knew she worried. When he told her that she would not be able to go far away from him. When he said that no matter what stupid harkatein she did, he would never let her fall. He told her that he loved her. He told her, he will never let her go. No matter how hard she tried to walk away. He almost dared her to walk away.
In her every glance, there was love. With every time she was awed, she wanted to express that love and she did, the way he does. By touching him. by wanting to kiss him. Showing how much she trusts him, showing how much she needs him too.
He planned the whole evening for her. He wanted it to be perfect. He wanted to surprise her, and he wants to continue to surprise her, humesha. He was so worried that she was upset because he was 10 minutes late. This, I-do-not-give-a-damn-about-anyone guy was worried that the girl he tender cares for was disappointed in him. And he apologised without her saying a thing.
This boy, this monster who never remembered anything with Alya, remembered her love for fire flies. Remembered her concern about his hand. Knows her so enough to know that something was wrong.
And she was in awe. Of her feelings. Because for the first time after the Musicana night, she was processing them. Slowly. Looking at him, looking at everything he did FOR HER. Absorbing it all. Wanting that one more khushi. almost felt that she did not believe it, that her fire flies and his stars were tricking her again. But no, it was true this time. He was hers. And she was in love with him.
