PART 14
"Nandu I need to talk" Manik said .
I felt my heart skipped a bit fast.
---Nandini pov---
Aaiyaapa is he talking about that day.? No no..I...I can't say anything... I mean how could I. ?
-------------
"Nandu. ..." Manik said seeking my attention.
All I could say was "Hmm" only. I was choked.
Manik- "Nandini do you really think that Cabir and navya will happen ? They are too different from eachother. Besides that Cabir doesn't like her. May be it's not a good idea to gell them together.. " Manik said.
"Hannn????? Cabir and navya? U r talking about cabir and navya???" I was surprised.
---Nandini pov - -
'Aaiyaapa he is talking about them and I thought he wanted to talk about us. I mean... Ummm... about that day.
Is my thoughts are running too fast?
------
Manik-"haan I am talking about Cabir and Navya only.. kuyn tumne kuch aur sunna tha. ?.?"
----Manik pov - - -
Shit again ...again main usse kuch bol nehi paya. And I asked about Cavya. Shit man. Nandu I desperately wanted to talk about that day but my words... My god damm words are betraying me. But wait " tum" when did I started to call her 'tum??
Urrggg!!!!! This feeling. ..
--------
---Nandini pov - - -
Tum? ? Did Manik called me as " tum"? No no...mere kaan baj rahe honge. .. but he just said 'tum' instead of 'tu'.
Urrggg. !!!!! Yeh feeling. .
-------
<Offoo... played on bg.>
Nandini - " I am sure about Navya's feeling. And Cabir doesn't like her it's true but he doesn't hate her too. Toh there is a hope. And Wasevi I am not forcing them to love but a chance get to know each other. May be then some miracle happen. What's say. ?"
Manik - " miracle haan. ?.? Okk carry on. But don't make a goof up like..."
I understood about which 'like ' he was talking about.
"Like you and Aliya toh...?? "
Manik gave a cold comprehend look.
" don't worry this time I wouldn't make any goof up. But..." I took a pause.
Manik then asked " but what? "
"But...ammm. ... still you can think about it twice. As Aliya loves you. But then what is the problem .? You were together for some time na.. then? I know she is not that good but not that bad either . I really think you should give her a chance at least. "
Though I have told these but my every words were piercing my heart for zillion times only. But yet bcz of my bffs happiness I consoled myself.
Manik stared at me in disbelieve..
---Manik Pov - - -
What the hell is she talking about? She is going insane man. She is asking me to revive my relationship with Aliya which actually doesn't exist.
Damm is she thinking that I like Aliya. ?
Ooo no no man ... I ve to tell her. . Tell her every thing unless it will be late. . Now Manik bol de sab usko.. yes I will.
------
"Nandini" Manik took a deep breath " Nandu the fact is I think I lo..."
"whtsaap amigos" Cabir jumped on us.
Manik irritatedly said " Cabirrr..."
"aub Isshe kya hua. ? Itna gussa kyun hai. ? " Cabir asked seeing irritated Manik.
"U know na monster needs no reason to get angry. So chill" I replied.
" fine..." Manik frustratingly said and walked out from there.
I watched his movements.
----- nandini pov----
Aaiyaapa manik bol ne kya wala tha. ? Ufff this cabir na.. joker kahika...thori der baad nehi aa sakta tha !!!
----------
Cabir -"Aub tujhe kya hua.? What's wrong with you all guys. ? You are behaving too weird man. "
Nandini - " Nothing let's go. We have lots of work. Navya Chalo"
I called her as she was seating at a little distance.
"Hmm chalte hai" Navya replied.
---Cabir pov ---
" Ohh no... now I ve to bear this Madhubala. .. Nandu ne Kahan fasa dia. ..
If I work with this black and white Madhubala toh mujhe pagal khane vejna parega.. Aur if I say no toh Nandu itna maregi k mujhe hospitalised hona parega. ..
Uff karu to kya karu.?
Ek taraf khai. . Toh dusri taraf kua..
<Kai karu k na karu yeh kaisi muskil hai,,
koi toh batade ishka hal wohhh mere bhai... played In bg>
-----------
Mukti-"guys aub aage kya karna? My head is spinning. . And upar se that idiot Abhi. "
"Ohh chill baby doll... don't miss me too much. ?" Abhi teasingly rubbed his shoulder with mukti ' s.
In the mean time Aliya was glaring Manik and got furious seeing me sitting next to him.
"Kripiya dhyan de.. raghav ne jo missile bomb hum pe fora hai. . Ushe anjam dene ka waqt aa gaya hai.. Toh it is requested to all to pull off ur socks and get ready to attack on the projects. " Cabir mockingly said.
Aliya - "Ohh yaa we ve to. By d way you are too happy na Nandini. ?"
I was talking with Navya toh I didn't hear her words properly. Toh I simply answered " Sorry. ?.? "
Aliya - " why ?? did not u get me.? I think you must be so happy."
Nandini - " and what make you think tht I am happy. ? As per the work division, we got the major part toh do you think it's a matter of happiness. ? By d way you should be happy as I ve taken ur responsibilities too."
--Nandini-pov---
I know Aliya you are angry with me. U r super vexed with me to spoil your golden chance to get cozy with Manik. But sorry I had to do tht be coz of my bffs. So no regret..
----- - -
"Nandini thanks for helping me understanding Me. Pata hai hum toh dar hi gaye the jab raghav sir ne humara naam lia woh v Mukti k sath. U knw na I am little scared of her. But you saved me. U r a savior, a true friend." Navya hugged me.
"Dostana part 2" Cabir teased us.
"Okk guys let's get going. Its already 4 pm. we will further discuss tomorrow itself. Chale ?" Manik asked me and cabir.
I bid bye to Navya and we came to the exit gate of college premises . Manik went to parking lot to get the car.
"Cabirrr.. Ummm... can I ask you something. ?"
" don't tell me about that Madhubala plz. I am over for today. "
"Uff it's not about her okk. ."
"Thanks bhaggu. . But then about whom? "
Nandini - " Cabir... Wohh I want to ask ..k... amm. .. Wohh M...manik... umm"
"Kyaaa. ? What.? What do u want to say. ? Just speak up na.. Itna soch kyun rahi hai. ?"
"Wohh ... nothing chor."
Cabir - " chor dia. "
---Cabir pov - - -
Wait a minute. Yeh scene kuch jani Pahechani kyun lag raha hai mujhe!! Kahin pe toh suna hai yeh lines.. In deep thought
Eureka. . Last manik was saying the same ...
In dono ko ayesa kya hua jo mujhe nehi hua?
I ve to know it.. detective in work...
But not to worry I will find out it. Main v cabir hu..
--------
Manik honked his car and we got in.
Evening my home.
6:45 pm.
I was watching my best Show in mtv. And that time mom's ph ranged. Urrggg.. I just hate any kind of disturbance during that particular show as I was just mad about that lead actor. Manik toh literally teased me with his name whenever we saw him with his co actors in instagram updates.. ahhaa...my Parth..!!
But as mom is doing some work I had no option but to compromise and receive.
"Hello"
cabir's mom- "Hello beta. . How are you"
"Ohh hii aunty. . M fine. How are you. ?"
cabir's mom"Fine beta. Where is ur mom. ? "
"Yeah she is in upstairs. Let me call her. "
Mom...mom Anita aunty is in line..come Fast.
Nandini- "Yeah aunty she is coming. Where is cabir. ?"
cabir's mom- "Beta cabir went to airport to pick his aunty up."
"Ohh yaa I forgot he told us tht your sister is Coming to visit you. "
Meanwhile mom came and I handed over the ph to her
" yaahh di. ."
------------
"Achcha...?"
--------------------
"No no no.. don't worry. I m coming. "
----------------
"Di I ll b there soon. U just start chopping vegetables. Bye "
"What. ? All okk mumma. ?" I enquired.
Mom- "Nandu Bachcha I ve to go to Anita aunty' s house as she needs my help in preparing dinner as some guests are arriving for dinner. "
Nandini- "Okk"
Mom- "Okk then let's get ready fast"
"I am not Coming mom. U know na I feel uneasy with the gathering. Plz u go. "
Mom- "Par nandu how could I go leaving you alone in this tym. "
"Mommm !!!!!"
Mom- "Okk 1 sec. "
then she took her ph and dialed some numbers.
"Hello..."
-------
"Kya kar raha hai Bachcha. ? Listen there is some emergency toh I ve to go cabir's home. Will u come over here to be with Nandu till I return. ?
-------------
"Haii mera sona Bachcha...nalla irike.. bye come jaldi se."
" Manik is Coming so I need to worry. Let me get ready. " and she walked in her bedroom.
I was confused with all the scenery just happened 10 secs ago in front of me .
She asked Manik. Aaiyaapa after whatever had happened he was the last person with whom I wanted to b alone.
-----Nandini pov - - - -
But Nandini hold on just bcz of one incident you will neglect your 6 yrs friendship ? R you mad .? And jahan tak baat rahi Ush baat ki toh at the end I ve to face him. Even it will be good if we will discuss and sort out the issue.
Okk tonight is the night.. I will sort out this mess for sure.
------
Same time Manik car
"It's high time Manik. Now you seriously have to talk with her. Yesss tonight is the night. "
-----------------
As soon as Manik reached mom left.
An awkward silence covered my living room. In that time I got a call from Navya and went to the balcony to talk with her.
After some time when I returned I found Manik no where. "Aaiyaapa yeh kaha gaya ?"
Then I came to terrace searching him to find him lying on the divan and gazing the stars.
I tip toeing came downstairs to make coffee for us. After making coffee I took our respective cups (I ve three cups having pesto of our photos. ) and headed towards the terrace.
I slowly came and sat beside him. He was still gazing stars.
"Coffee? ??" I said to grab his attention.
He was in deep thoughts to listen my call.
I again said "coffee? ?"
Manik then came to his trance and took his cup and said " thanks" .
After that we took a long pause to finish our coffee. Suddenly Manik said " Nandu do you remember our first talk.. first Emotional talk .?"
And we went down to the memory lane. .
flashback
5 years back.
Party at Manik home with some respective figures of town. My parent's are also invited .I looked for him but he was not there. Then I came to know that he was in terrace so I followed.
"U monster why did you break my pencil in school ?" I shouted at him as he broke my favorite pencil which dad brought from Pondechery.
He didn't replied. I went near to him and I saw him gazing stars.
-------Manik pov-------
I felt bored in the party. though it was my 10th birthday party but it seemed like a business associated party where no one was asking for the birth day boy but company stocks and shares.
So I came to terrace to avoid those masked peoples.
I was gazing at stars when she came with her silly complaints.
ohh God again she started her complain boxes.
Then she asked me " why are you looking at them so intensely.?"
Manik- "Do u knw what soha maa was used to say "
Nandini- " soha maa.? Ur mom?"
Manik- " No u stupid.. My caretaker"
Nandini- " Ohhh where is she now? "
Manik- " She is no more. She died last year" I becm sad remembering her.
Nandini-"But what's her connection with stars ?"
God some body saved me from her silly questions...
Manik-"there is no connection with her to stars but soha maa used to say me that the stars were alwys there with us like a shelter. Where ever we go na they follow us. They gave us lights for life. They shine for us to brighten up our loneliness. They give us strength to fight with darkness. They protect us forever. "
Nandini-" but Manik din me toh stars were not in the sky. ? Toh fir how they will protect u forever?"
Manik-" yaa right but she said that stars won't leave us in day also. They just hide behind the sun as they are giving sun the opportunity to bring light in our lives and to spread love on us. So the stars won't show up in day.."
Nandini-" really. ? But Maanikk.. If they really love you then they won't hide for any reason na? They should be with you as shield. Hain na ?"
I was first time confused with her words.
Yahh she was right if they love me then there is no need to hide ?
But in my this 10 year's life I had never thought about it.
Suddenly she said " But you love them so much, don't you?"
"Yeh I love them coz they shine for me in night when I feel scared being alone. They give me strength to fight the darkness. I love them as they twinkles ..I love my twinkle twinkle little stars. "
I then observed that she was in deep thought biting her puffy pink lips.
Then she said" "Tum na Manik inke chakkar me maat paro. tum na Humesa mere sath raho and I will.. I will shine for you Humesa. . I won't hide but be with you to protect you. Forever. Nandini promise."
I was mesmerised with her simplicity.. She had not realised what she had done for me now. first time I felt so scerued. Then she cutely kissed on my cheeks.
---------------
End flashback
Manik - " kuch yaad aaya?"
"Hmm"
Manik - "Do you know that day was the very first day of we talked without fights and took one step ahead of our friendship"
" hmmm" I smiled.
Manik -" tujhe pata hai from my childhood I was craving for love for care of my parents. but did not get it. They said that I ve everything. I...I the almighty Manik Malhotra has everything but love.."
" Maanik." I about to console him but he stopped me in middle and continued
" Then one day like a cool breeze you blowed in my life. U have given me motherly love.. friendly tender and care. U snatched the dark part of my life and explored a new sorted me. U shined for me"
"Maanik. .. " I cupped his face and turned to face me " what happened. ? Suddenly yeh sab baatein. ? Is Every thing ok? Tell na baba. ... kya hua hai. ?"
I emotionally asked him.
He then looked at me intensely. His eye's had some thing different hidden in it.. It was so deep. I felt my heartbeat picking up its pace. His gazes were embraced me. It was like they tried to explore the deepest secrets.
That silly hormones started doing their dirty jobs. Then I felt his hot breadth on my face. It was enough to awake the sleepy butterflies in my stomach. My eyes.. my shameless eyes glued to the mole he had just left corner on his upper pinkish lips.
Then Abruptly he asked in his husky low tone " Nandini are you still on that words of yours that you will shine for me and protect me Humesha. ?"
I was dumbfounded. I didn't know what to say. His breadth were running faster than me or our breadth were complimented each other. "Bolo Nandini" Manik again asked in his sexy mesmerizing voice with lots of Emotions.
"Yess I will. I will shine for you. I will protect you. Humesha. " I was lost in his eyes.
He then smiled cutely and without breaking our eye contact he leaned to me more closer. Our distance and my heartbeat running in reversely promotional orders. As the distance between us decreases the palpitations of my heart increases. I found his eyes on my lips. He leaned more closer and when we were approximately 0.999mm far I stepped back And Manik accidentally kissed on my nose..
I was shocked at first then realizing the moment I blushed.
Actually we blushed as I saw him too confuse with his fatal movements. It took one couple of minutes to get over the awestruck moment. We were gasping. Then to overcome the awkwardness I said " th...The stars... They twinkled naa. ?"
Manik was shocked then making himself calm he said " Hmmm th...they are..." he paused " They are as like you "
And he promptly peck on my nose again...
