Beauty is everywhere. It just depends on us as our perception is what makes some things pretty or ugly for us. But beauty is everywhere and only a person who is in love, who is positive about his life can see the hidden beauty in everything. Even in the things that he never thought to be beautiful at all but they looked perfect as Nandini was next to him and he felt a serene tide going on inside. He was giddy with excitement and scared with his expectations. He expected that Nandini would be there with him always, only his. This was immensely selfish, he knew but he was an insecure person with a scarred past and a not so happy present. And Nandini was the only person who could change it all. He knew that no best friend could have such feelings about the other, that indeed some things had changed. His feelings had changed but he wasn't ready to face the truth right now as he was buried under a number of commitments and promises that he had made to someone but now wanted out as he understood how stupid he had been to make them and how he knew that his promise to Alya to stay with her forever and make her happy was now suffocating him, stopping him from embracing the old but now newly discovered feelings of breaking free from his relationship with Alya.

The Manik who had made this promise would never want to break-up with Alya and live a life without her. But now when he was sitting with Nandini, thinking about his messed-up life he understood that Alya was never meant to be with him. He was always someone else's and these promises were scaring him.

He knew who that someone was, deep-down, but wasn't being able to accept it. While his heart and sub-conscious shouted out Nandini! his mind was pretty dumb to not accept the most beautiful truth of his life.

Manik's POV

Life is so pretty. Looking out of the window of my car after looking at my Nandini made everything look beautiful and serene. She always had managed to bring out the most beautiful aspects of my life and I thought about the things which had made my life so messed up.

Topping the list was of course, a missing Nandini but also Alya came into my mind. My relationship with her had never been about talking. We had never shared our problems or our fears with each other and when I pondered more upon it then I realised that I didn't even know her well. It was just a physical and so-called relationship where we would meet and have fun. She could never be the support which I needed in my life, which a true life companion should be like.

I started comparing Nandini to Alya and the only conclusion I came up with was that I could live without Alya but leaving Nandini behind again would eat me up. And I would be miserable again.

Sensing the turmoil stirring within me, Nandini started a conversation and I smiled, I smiled a real smile after a pretty long time because I don't know when I had smiled last. She knew me in and out and this couldn't change even with the distance between us.

"Manik, I am so proud of you today! You are everything that you wanted to ever be. You are successful and you have FAB 5 with you. You have everything today. So I don't think I need to worry about you anymore." Nandini ended playfully.

I frowned on listening this and saw her controlling her laugh on my expression. I was so happy to see her evergreen beautiful smile but stopping myself from smiling along with her and keeping up my act, I started cribbing like a baby, "Don't you ever dare say that! No one is as important as you in my life and you not caring for me will kill me." I had said it without a thought but I got emotional when I realised the truth of my statement. I had been devoid of her pampers and love for such a long time.

She was definitely making an aww face which changed immediately when her phone started to flash a name, to anger and agitation.

I was driving but I was concentrating more on her. Seeing the pinkish tint of her cheeks fading way and being replaced with a pale colour, I got tensed.

So without another thought I asked," Who is the guy?"

She was surprised at first as to how I knew but even she knew that I knew her better than anyone else and simply said," Harshad"

I was furious now. Why the hell was this guy irritating my Nandu? I was making my plans to beat the shit out of him when sensing my anger and knowing well enough about how protective I used to be about her when I saw any guy wander around her; she continued," Don't worry he's harmless. He just wants to get back together. You know, I'm like everyone's dream girl here. They all really wish to go out with me." and she ended her sentence with a chuckle.

I'm pretty sure that she was everyone's dream girl, hell, she was mine. But when she said "getting back together", it struck me. She was dating other guys and that made me hell jealous and feel over-possessive about her. She was going on in life without me.

Nandini's POV

I said the truth and then I noticed the insecurity and uneasiness on Manik's face. Maybe he was feeling bad that I had someone else in my life too just like he had Alya. The look on his face was just like mine when I used to feel bad about them being together because I was in love with him. But why did this effect him so much? Did he even love me?

Cursing my love-sick brain for making up hopeless expectations I thought of something to make him feel okay again. My mind was shouting, "Let him face the reality too! Let him feel your hurt!" but my ever loving Manik heart shouted out, "Nandini, your his star and he needs you. You cannot see him hurting!"

This time surprisingly my heart won for the first time after a long time in my life and then thinking about how to calm him down, I instantaneously said, "No matter how many guys come in my life Manik, you will be the only guy who matters the most to me." This was the truth of my life, and it had hurt me before but now it felt so good to feel this way.

These words seemed to have an instant effect and his face turned from being gloomy to happy and he suddenly stopped the car in the middle of nowhere. Before I could ask anything he leaned down, close to my face and what he did made me feel giddy and dazed. He kissed my forehead very gently and held my shoulders possessively, as though I would disappear if he left hold of me. He then kissed my cheek and stayed there for some time. His warm breath was blowing over my neck making me feel those butterflies in the pit of my stomach. He moved away, but the feeling of his lips lingered there and my eyes were still closed. I felt the blood rushing to my cheeks, but this never happened with anyone else's touch. Only Manik had the power to make me blush.

I noticed him looking at me with a smirk and before he could tease me because of my blush I tried changing the topic, "Manik you don't know my house so where are you driving to? Because even if you knew, this place is definitely not in the way." Manik was totally in a fun mood after his kiss and said huskily, "well, that I know. But we weren't going to your house anyway." I was confused so he said, "arre Nandu! we are going to our home, underneath the stars."

And here I was happier than ever and blushing. I remembered our moments under the stars and blushed even more because we used to be so close at that time. Manik looked at me and after being satisfied with my crimson cheeks, he contined driving towards our home.
