CHAPTER 12 - PINK LIPS
"Dhruv, the party was not needed...and moreover I am not in mood of parting tonight" said nandini lazily dropping beside dhruv in the living room.
"Com'on nandini, it is a success party in your honour you have to come...and where as party is concern...'FAB 5' doesn't need reasons to celebrate"
Said Dhruv.
Nandini smiled inward at dhruv reffering them as FAB5 again...not FAB4 any more.
"Ohky, mukti! Please wake me up at 7 ...I really need to catch some sleep."
"Yup sleeping beauty...even better
...set alarm for yourself..." said mukti, ruffling her hairs.
Seeing her retrieving to her room...mukti calls cabir " "I want him her by 7:30"
"Aye aye captain! And yes manik's car is ready to blow their horns" Said Cabir with a devilish smile.
Nandini stirred in her sleep as the alarm clock started ringing off. She turned towards the side table to hit the snooze button. She squinted half an eye open and her eyes fell on the image of the person she loved the most. Her lips automatically curved into a small smile. She opened her eyes fully wanting to see him clearly and reached over to pick up the picture frame of Manik. She traced slow fingers along the cold glass imagining that she was running her fingers along his light stubble that always ticked her skin. It was one of sensations she missed dearly.
" dying to see you tonight", she said with love as she pecked her lips against the glass where his lips were
.
She sighed as she leaned against the bed rest cuddling the picture frame against her chest. It wasn't the same as hugging him but it would have to do for the time being.
Giving one final glance to the face she couldn't live without, she placed the picture back on the table and got up to get ready.
She came out of the Bathroom with dump hair. And sat in front of mirror to get ready wearing a designer beautiful black sari contrasted with hot pink.
Nandini heard a knock while she was struggling to tie up the dori of her blouse, which went crisscrossing across her back and was supposed to be knotted at her waist.
Though no doubt, it looked very stylish but nandini couldn't bring herself to appreciate its beauty when she had spent the last five minutes trying to find the end of the left dori, blindly groping at her back until her arms hurt.
"
Who is it?" She snapped at the door.
Manik was was too numb to reply hearing the known voice.
Huffing, she went to the door to unlock it. She saw manik standing at the doorstep, Forgetting everything around her, she shamelessly scanned him from top to bottom, as he was clad in a black three piece suit with an crisp white shirt with a pink pocket square which added more to his perfection Nandini was taken aback;Too blown away by his good looks to react properly or to care that she was openly ogling at him.
Manik caught her looking admiringly at him and a crooked smile graced his lips.
"Like what you see, Nandini?" His dimple dug in, making him look all the more handsome.
Nandini's eyes went wide before she averted her embarrassed gaze to the floor, feeling heat rushing to her cheeks; not knowing that her shyness made her all the more endearing in nandini's eyes.
"You would look the hottest even in a ragged sack"said nandini under her breath with was quiet audible to manik making him smirk even wider.
"Excuse me! You said something" said manik mockingly, totally enjoying nandini's state
(Oh poor nandini! You said I am still not over you...I guess that same goes for you... I still effect you...that's gonna be fun) thought manik .
"What are you doing here...what do you want " snapped nandini , trying to hide her nervousness.
Actually, Cabir asked me to pick up beer crate from mukti's Place. I couldn't find anyone in the house except you."
"What! No one is there here" said horrified nandini confusing manik.
"What!"
"Nothing! ... Crate is that side." Said nandini making way for manik to enter the room.
"What are you doing in muktis house?" Asked manik suspesiously
"Actually, I lost keys of my house so mukti suggested to came to her place till I get a new key made for the house ...which will probably done by morning" lied nandini flawlessly.
Manik entered the room, when nandini dropped a bangle out of clumsiness. Manik bent down to pick it up but nandini was faster than him.which gave manik clear view of her bear back.
Manik was awestruck at the site. Nandini picked up the bangle , before she could get up . she felt a hand slipping down her shoulder,giving her support to stand straight gently and walked her to the mirror as he moved her hair over her shoulder and caught the ends of the dori.
Nandini's mouth hung open in shock as she looked at him with wide surprised eyes, her stomach suddenly erupting with butterflies and a warm, fuzzy feeling enveloping her entire body. She knew her cheeks were crimson because she could literally feel blood rushing up to them. She tried to turn around but was Jerked back by manik making her back crashing in his wide chest.
"The way you're getting shy, a person would think that's the first time I'm doing it." He almost whispered in her right ear as he reached her and turned her to face the mirror, standing behind her.
His intense eyes were fixed on hers through the mirror as he moved her hair over her shoulder and caught the ends of the dori, tying them up with a slowness that was as excruciating as it was pleasing.
Nandini found herself unable to breathe. Her heart was hammering in her chest and for an insane moment, she wondered if manik could hear it. After what felt an eternity of sweet torture, manik pulled the knot with a gentle tug, making nandini take in a sharp breath, finally providing air to her deprived lungs. She was still pinned under his unwavering gaze .
"God forbid what you'll do to yourself when you're feeling dizzy" manik whispered in most husky voice breaking nandini from sensational moment and completely enjoying nandini's expression.
Nandini srunched her eyes Out of embarrassment.
Nandini thanked aiiappa million times and blessed the caller when manik's cellphone rang helping her to escape the manik's sarcasm.
Not knowing how to react, nandini turned and hurried out of the room leaving manik to chuckle by himself before answering the call.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manik came out of the room finding nandini getting ready in other room. He stood mesmerised at the view in front of him. He saw nandini in beautiful black and hotpink sari with smoky eye make up and loosely cured hair left open to flow flawlessly. She wore a mettalic neck piece with added to her beauty. She looked element yet simple. Not over done with tone of makeup like a page3 wimp.
"Hmm...dhruv called to inform that he shall not be able to come to pick you up so you are accompanying me to the party...I will be waiting downstairs" said manik trying hard to remove his eyes from her but couldn't.
"Ohky" nandini said lightly absorbing the current Revelation whose thought send shivers all over her body.
( alone with manik...in his car...aiiappa what more is still on my way...why you compensating for all 7 years in one go... I don't mind ...bit its still to much to digest...aiiappa give me strength to handle this arrogant headed monster) mummered nandini to herself...
"I don't have plan to wait for you all the night..." Said manik , leaning against his car lazyily seeing nandini approaching him.
"Mr malhotra ! If you are done with your sarcastic comment ... Can we please make a move now" said nandini while settling down in front seat.
"Look who is talking"manik rolled his eye , settling down in his car and making a move towards cabir's house.
There was awkwardness in the atmosphere.
"Songs...?"suggested manik
"What" said nandini with raised eyebrow
"Actually, Cabir took my car and he got new song installed in it so...if you like" manik stammered, mentally slapping himself for giving explanation
To nandini.
"Sure" said nandini smiling lightly...totally confused with manik's behaviour but not more than manik himself.
Manik turned on the music player, finding his eyes almost out of socket as the song reached his ears.
Roop Tera Mastana Pyar Mera diwana
Roop Tera Mastana Pyar Mera diwana
Bhool Koi Hamse Na Hojaye
Roop Tera Mastana Pyar Mera Diwana
Bhool Koi Hamse Na Hojaye
Raat Nasheeli Mast Sama Hai
Aaj Nashe Mein Sara Jahan Hai .
Raat Nasheeli Mast Sama Hai
Aaj Nashe Mein Sara Jahan Hai
Haan Ye Sharabi Mausam Behkaye.
Nandini eyes widened while hearing the lyrics. She turned towards manik , trying hard to stop her laugh as she found manik even more horrified than her. Manik hurriedly changed the song not knowing what was waiting next for him.
C'mon...
Maine raat mein aankh se baat private bol di
Tune pyaar ki di hawaa zulfe maine khol di
Kar le mujhko tu touch zara
Slowly slowly feel me
Aise ab mujhe na sataa
I can't take it no more
I just wanna feel your body
(saanu kare ishaare) touch my body
Don't be shy my honey
(saanu kare ishaare) feel my body
Nandini started being nervous and started playing with pallu of her sari. Manik got irritated as the atmosphere was getting sensuous with the song and having nandini beside him only few inches away made him even more restless.
Manik hurriedly changed the song to get a bigger shock.
Badan Pe Sitaare Lapate Huye
O jaane tamanna kidhar ja rahi ho
Zara paas aayo, to chain aa jaaye Zara Paas Aayo
to chain aa jaaye
Hameiin Jab na honge to aye dil rubaan Kise dekh kar haaye sharmaayo gi
Na dekhogi phir tum kabhi aaina
Hamare bina roz ghabraayo gi
Nandini eyes came out of socket as lyrics reminded her of her situation a few minutes ago while manik tying her dori.
Manik frustration level grew even higher as the song depicted his exact feeling what he had for nandini few minutes ago...
"Cabir" whispered nandini in disbelief as Nandini realized he was the master mind behind this.
Oh come to me
na na na na..
I came to see
Na na na na..
Honthon pe beimaaniyan
Karle karle, thodi nadaaniyan
Honthon pe manmaaniyaan
Karle karle, thodi nadaaniyan
Mujhe aadhi raat ko sataane lage
Mujhe apne saath tadpaane lage
Tu aaja paas, ye bulaane lage
Tujhe chhoona chaahe
Mere ye, mere ye, mere
Pink lips, pink lips, pink lips
Pink lips, pink lips, pink lips
Pal-pal tujhko karte miss
Pink lips, pink lips, pink lips
Pink lips, pink lips, pink lips
I know you want my baby lips.
Manik got irritated and the situation was making it more difficult to control himself. suddenly ,there eyes met ... Both looked horrified.
Nandini licked her lower lip, unconsiously which diverted maniks full attention towards Nandini's lips.
Nandini immediately turned her face towards window , scrunching her eyes tightly smiling out of shyness and embarresment.
Manik groaned, and punched the player buttons brutally to turn it off.while killing Cabir thousand times mentally as he entered parking lot of cabir's apartment.
