CHAPTER 7

NEXT MORNING

IN THE CANTEEN

Aliya and Mukti were sitting in the canteen waiting for the boys. At the same time Nandini and Navya enter the canteen. They go to the counter and take their breakfast with them and are about to leave when Nandini bumps into Aliya and Mukti. Aliya gets angry and stamps her foot in anger. Mukti smirks.

Aliya: You idiot! How dare you?

Nandini: I am sorry Aliya. I didn't do it intentionally.

Aliya: Sorry my foot!

Mukti: Aww! Poor girl! Now you will have to pay for it.( She smirks looking at Aliya and Aliya also smirks)

Aliya: Yeah! Tumhe ek task karna padega.

Nandini: What task?

Navya: Nandini chalo yaha se. Aliya please jane do.

Aliya: Shut up you fool!

Nandini: What is the task?

Aliya: Go to the entrance of the canteen and you have to kiss the first person who enters the canteen.

Nandini's eyes widened: What? I won't

Mukti interrupted: Shut up and do as we say. (She held her hand and pushed her towards the door)

Everyone in the canteen noticed this and was looking at Nandini. Some guys were passing rubbish comments and some people were cheering her name. Nandini was scared. She was standing near the door and closed her eyes. After getting some confidence she opened her eyes and looked outside. Everyone was also looking outside. Suddenly she saw dhruv. Dhruv was walking towards the canteen. But from the right side Manik came and started walking towards the canteen followed by cabir.

Nandini to herself," Aiyaappa isko kyu bhej diya? Ab mera kya hoga?"

Manik entered the canteen and Nandini gathered all her courage and stood infront of Manik. Manik looked at her with an angry face. Everyone was staring at them.

Manik: What? Move aside!

Nandini didn't listen. She tiptoed to match his height. She was looking into his chocolaty brown eyes and Manik was all confused. But as Nandini was looking into eyes he couldn't stop himself from looking into her beautiful eyes. They both were lost in each other. At the same time, Mukti and Aliya couldn't see what was going on as the students gathered around Manik and Nandini. They both stood up and moved ahead of the crowd. Aliya was fuming with anger and she was about to stop Nandini but at the same time Nandini moved her right hand to Manik's right cheek and kissed his left cheek. Manik's eyes widened and he was hell shocked. Nandini looked down as everyone was staring at them. Manik touched his left cheek and started staring at Nandini/ Everyone started cheering Manik and Nandini's name. Nandini was about to leave when Aliya held her hand and turned her around.

Aliya: How dare you kiss Manik?

Nandini: Aliya you only told me to kiss the first person entering the canteen.

Aliya walked away and Mukti followed her. Manik was still shocked and was touching his left cheek and he said to himself," What just happened? Did she really kiss me or am I dreaming?" He was brought out of the trance by the voice of Cabir saying to everyone," Yaha koi movie nahi chal rahi hai. Get out everyone." Cabir saw Manik's shocked face and Manik's hand on his cheek. Manik was staring at Nandini. Nandini was looking down when Navya came there and said.

Navya: Nandini. Chalo yaha se.

Nandini looked up and saw Manik staring at her. She also started staring at Manik. Cabir was seeing all this and enjoying. Navya held her hand and dragged her outside but still she was looking at Manik and Manik continued to stare at her till she disappeared.

Cabir: Manik baba hosh me to hai?

Manik: Ha..Haan!Kya?

Cabir: Kuch nahi chal class me jate hai.

Manik: Han chal.( Manik remembered how she kissed him and a smile appeared on his face)

Meanwhile, Nandini was walking with Navya and she was also thinking about how she kissed Manik and she started blushing a little.

Rest of the day was boring and the classes finished. Everyone went to their respective rooms.

In the evening at 7 pm in Nandini and Navya's room.

Nandini was sitting on her bed with her books all over the bed. Nandini said to herself," Aaj mai hi late jaungi waise bhi wo kabhi time pe nahi aata hai. But How will I face him after what happened today in the canteen. Wo kya soch raha hoga mere bare me. Aiyaapaa please help me!"

At the same time, Manik was walking towards the music room and he said to himself," Miss Nandini Murthy aaj mai time pe aagaya hu. Aaj koi lecture nahi sun na padega."

Manik went inside the music room and found it empty. Manik was shocked as he thought she would be on time as usual. He placed his guitar near the chair and sat on the chair and closed his eyes and saw Nandini in front of him. Manik opened his eyes and said to himself," What is happening with me? Nandini kyu dikh rahi hai mujhe har jagah. Arghhh." He looked at the time and it was 7:20.He walked towards the door and was about to leave when Nandini entered the music room.

Manik: What the hell Nandini? Why are you so late?

Nandini: Kyu Manik? Roz tum late aate ho. Aaj mai late aagayi.

Manik: I came here sharp at 7. You are so late.

Nandini: Aww! Tumhe wait karna pada. So sad.

Manik smirked: You never stop surprising me han! Sometimes you scare me, sometimes you scold me when I am late, sometimes you kiss me (he smirked) and now you are making fun of me.'

she started laughing and Manik was admiring her beautiful face and a smile appeared on his face too. (Ishq Bulaava in the bg)

After a few minutes, Nandini stopped laughing and saw that Manik was smiling and staring at her. She waved her hand in front of her and said," Mr Manik Malhotra hum jo yaha karne aaye the wo kare?"Manik came out of his trance and said," Yeah."

Manik and Nandini sat on the chairs. Manik was holding his guitar and he said," Listen to this." Nandini was just looking at him and Manik played a beautiful rhythm.

Manik: How was it?

Nandini smiled: It was awesome Manik.

Manik smiled and they practiced for an hour but they were struggling with the lyrics. So Manik said that they should take a break and they will practice the next day. Nandini agreed and was about to leave when Manik held her hand and stopped her.

Manik: Listen. I wanted to ask you something?

Nandini: Han bolo na.

Manik: Woh.. Ummm. What happened to you yesterday? Tum lost lag rahi thi bohot.

Nandini looked down: Wohh.. Kuch nahi Manik.. I..I was just tired.

Manik wasn't convinced so he made Nandini look at him and asked once again. Nandini had tears in her eyes and Manik saw it.

Manik: What happened? Why are you crying? If you don't want to tell then it is fine.

Nandini: I want to tell but mujhe khud ko pata nahi hai ki kya hua tha. My life is messed up. Tum nahi samjhoge.

Manik: But Nandini you should not keep it to yourself. If something is disturbing you then discuss it with someone. Trust me you will feel better. Don't tell it to me. Share it with your parents or your close friends.

Nandini said while crying: I wish I could share it with my parents.

Manik came closer: What do you mean?

Nandini sat down on the floor taking the support of the wall and signalled Manik to sit beside her.

Nandini: My parents are no more. I lost them when I was 11. They died in a car accident when we were coming back to India. And I am responsible for their death. I was the one who distracted my Dad's attention while he was driving and in a second my life changed. My parents died, my brother lost his voice and I lost my memory. Aur kal mujhe kuch yad aagaya tha uss bracelet ko dekh ke apne past ke bare me but. (She couldn't complete her sentence and started crying)

Manik was shocked. He also had tears in his eyes and he said to himself," She lost her memory. And use kuch yad aagaya wo bracelet ko dekh ke jo mujhe meri Nandu ne diya tha. Matlab she is my.. No no Manik are you crazy? She is no more."

Manik came out of the trance and said: Shh Nandini. Stop crying. And it was not your fault. Okay?

Nandini was not able to control her tears and suddenly she side hugged Manik and kept her head on his shoulders. Manik also held her tightly in his arms and tried to console her. After sometime Nandini stopped crying but she didn't want to leave Manik. She was feeling safe and protected in Manik's arms. Manik was also lost in her. He was constantly rubbing her back to make her feel good.

Nandini: Manik.

Manik: Shh.. Don't say anything.

Nandini smiled and hugged him more tightly and Manik felt happy and he also smiled and made his grip tighter. They both closed their eyes and they didn't realise when they both fell asleep in each other's arms.
