PART 21
"Aayiaappa this monster na. ... " I sighed and taking two cups headed towards upstairs.
When I entered in my room I found Manik playing video game sitting on the bean bag.
I went near to him and said. " your coffee your highness. "
"Keep it here " he replied pointing out the tea table without looking at me but the tv screen.
----nandini pov---
What the hell... is he really considering me as his Personal spot??
Donkey Manik Malhotra.
-------
"did you said anything ?" He asked but keeping full attention to that stupid game.
"No... not at all your highness"
I said and came to my study table to pick my laptop. Taking laptop I again glared at Manik but he was too busy in his own world. I came to my bed and lied down on my stomach.
It was almost a half an hour passed we were busy with our respective works.
I was searching for the designs of banner and other things when I felt a enhanced smell. I diverted my eyes to the source of this ravishing smell and found the most possible one. My Manik.
Wait not 'officially mine' but yet but 'mine'...
"What are you looking for"
He asked placing himself beside me lying on his stomach like me.
Now a days his presence was enough to knock my unknown desperate desires.
"Nothing much just searching for the designs" I replied moving little bit away from him to avoid that seductive touch.
"Okkk then let me open my Facebook account. " saying he opened his fb account.
Manik -"Ohhh 18 friend requests... 20 msgs... not bad "
I raised my eyebrows in disbelief "Really?"
" really...have a look.. Look na " he said in excitement pushing the laptop screen to me.
"Aiyaappaa all are from girls!!!"
I mistakenly said little louder.
"Toh.. Obviously girls.. Actually no one can resist my charm you know.." He proudly praised himself.
"Yahh I know" I sighed
But I wanted to read his msgs as a curious one only. But he was not seemed like reading. or he did not wanted to read in front of me. ..!!!
"Ufff stop it Nandini" I yelled myself.
Nandini - "Mmm...manik 20 msgs waiting see. "
Manik- " hmm Toh? " he paused and thinking a bit continued " soo u wanted me to read those msgs as then you can go through them. Don't you. ?"
Nandini- "No no...tu na always..don't put words on my mouth. Stop thinking craps. I am just saying you about that. So... It..It doesn't mean k I wanted to read them. Okkk. "
Manik- "Okkk then leave it I will read them later."
Nandini -" No Manik. I mean Manik just open na.. check out them. May be you will find any important msg. " I tried my best to convince him bcz I was dying in curiosity.
Giving me a 'like really look' he clicked on the msg box.
I was even we were in hell shocked finding 18 msgs of Aliya only.
"What the... what the hell man.. I have clearly told her to move on but she... she is so impossible man. " Manik annoyed.
I read some of the msgs all about how much she wanted him.. love him even kiss him too.
My heart ached a little not because I felt that pain Aliya was going through but me. Yes I felt something piercing my heart hard.
"So what do you think" I asked.
"About what. ?" He questioning me back.
" about Aliya" I replied in a low voice.
Manik- "Aliya ? There is nothing to think about it. Neither I feel any attraction towards her nor any special feeling. I just can't stand her."
Nandini- "But..."
Manik- "Before you could start with your lectures on morality let me clear you I was with her, tolerating her just bcz of you. But when I realized that love can't be forced so I backed out as I didn't wanted to hurt her as well as myself. So there is no chance to respond to her pleads. "
I didn't know why but I felt relaxed. His words removed the burden of my chest.
But my that bloody 'social worker' inside me became sad to think about Aliya.
"But don't you think to give her a last chance? " I really did not know why even I asked him.
He looked at me raising his eyebrows as I had asked him to say me the answer of the square root of mathematical pie.
"Do you really want me to do so Nandini. ? Are you ok with it. ?" He said and went to washroom.
His words started echoing all over the room.
-------
and again my mind vs heart game is on.
mind -"Are you ok with it. ?"
heart- "Yes am I ok with it.?"
mind- "How could I ok with it."
heart-"But I have to ok with it"
mind- "But he strictly mentioned that he does not love her. "
heart-"but he doesn't even love me. "
mind -"But you like his closeness..you love his smell..His simple casual touch raises your expectations..you always keep thinking about him. dont u?"
Your god damm body react it's extend with his simple hug or touch."
heart- " yes I do..But..."
-------
"But what?"
I heard some one asking me.
"But...I think I..." I murmured.
Manik- "What ? What do you think"
Now that words were sounding too monstrous to me. And in my life I had only one monster.. My monkey monster.
" kya hua...day dreaming at night? ?"
Manik's words brought me back from my trances.
"Hmmm nothing" I hesitantly replied.
"Okk fine.. If you don't want to share. It's totally on you. I don't want to be a trespasser Of any one's life"
Saying he laid down on the one corner of the bed.
--Nandini pov----
"Aaiyaappa is he bcm angry on me. ? But how Could I share my dilemma which belong to him with him only. "
-------
"Mmmaanik. ..." I called.
But he didn't replied.
"Maanik" I again called but with a much softer tone.
But he did the same. Gave no reply.
Then I slowly moved to the side he was sleeping and sit near his lying body.
"Maanik gussa hai" I asked with a genuine concern placing my hand on his hand.
I knew it was the only way to calm him. It was my own trick. And as expected his body responded as he moved his hand a little.
"Maanik I know that you are angry with me. But trust me I don't intend to hurt you. You know it right. ?"
I asked him taking his hand in me tangling our figures. He then responded and suddenly placed his head on my lap closing his eyes .
" I know that I shouldn't hide anything from you guys. But the truth is even I am in a mess. So plz try to understand and Give me some time to sort out my mind then I will definitely tell you. promise. But tab tak plz try to make out me and gussa maat hona. "
He then opened his eyes. He Took the hand we tangled and Looked upward to see my face then replied " I know that you need time. But if we will not share our messy lives then how it Could be sorted out. ? I know you want to deal with it yourself but do remember one thing I am always with you in all ways. "
And he kissed my hand.
His words gave me that security that I was wondering for. His words assured my heart. His this tender spread his true concern about me.
I was too happy and relaxed with his words. And leaned closer and stopped kissing on his forehead.
"I know you will understand me. Thanks for this. Pata hai Manik when we were in first standard and you pushed me in the mud to bully me, that day I never thought that some day you would be the one who will offer me the hand to get up. Even you would be the one who will be my greatest support. And you will be the one..." and he stopped me in middle to say
" who will never let you fall down. Yes I won't. I always be there with you not like your shadow but the soul."
"That means you are my soul mate ?" I lovingly asked.
He smiled then got up and sat in front of me looking into my eyes he replied " no I am not. "
I was shocked by his reply. I glared at him with a pair of teary eyes and I was about to ask 'why he was saying that he wasn't' but hearing my unsaid words he replied "No I am not but We are the soul mates of each other. Yes Nandu... you are not only my shining star..my sunshine but my soul mate too who will always shine for my soul. Hain na... ???"
I didn't know I ever able to get that much of happiness in my whole life. It was the night which was the night of breaking the barriers of unnecessary thoughts. I didn't know whether I was that much happy any day of my this 15 years long life.
It was the 'red letter day'. No no no. .It was the 'red letter night' of my life...my sole mate's life.
I was too happy that tears started falling down from my eyes but they were the tears of happiness. "Khusi k aasun" you know.
And I jumped on a tight hug to him. And about Manik. He hugged me even more tighter just as a gesture of his unending happiness.
Then after some couples of minutes he broke the hug and gazed on my eyes with full intense. and lovingly remove the hair strands from my face and tucked them behind my ears. and smoothly kissed on my forehead. Then he again lowered his eyes on me. He was staring my eyes as he was looking them after so many ages. I could feel our heart beats were running fast. Like really fast. His hot breadth covering my face. My desires were became uncontrolled. It was me who desperately wanted to caresses the mole he had on the corner side of his upper lip. I wanted to crush on the rose petals he had as lips.
Suddenly he smiled. And hugged me again. I was first taken aback as I was on my own desire land but then I hugged him back with more passion and force that we fell on bed together .
We didn't know how much time we stayed like that position.
After some time I didn't know how much time I felt something heavy and unusual on my waist. To check on this I slightly opened my eyes. But the heavy thing delivered not pain but a smile on my face. I saw in my half sleep Manik holding my waist and sleeping placing his head on my right shoulder like a cute baby. Our faces were deadly close to each other. I couldn't help myself to give a sweet peck on the cheek of this adorable baby boy.
And on my surprise he smiled a little in his sleep. I was amazed. "Awaa my cute choco-monster".
Then I tried to move but couldn't as his clutch on my waist was more harder than my normal strength. So admiring him again and giving him a quick nose peck I fast fall asleep.
