<font size="3">CHAPTER 14</font>
<font size="3">after a long teasing session and roasting manik in the fire of jealousy as a chicken,the gang finally decide to leave and were soon off to their houses,where everyone was having a nice sleep after being satisfied by maniks reaction,manik on the other hand was just tossing over his bed,his mind was struck on the gangs mission of uniting nandini an aryamann,everytime he thought about them being together,a strange kind of realization stuck him-WHY M I CONCERENED IF THEY GET TOGETHER?NANDU IS JUST A FRND,THEN Y?and everytime he answered sayingM HER FRND,I NEED MAKE SURE THAT SHE GETS THE BEST,UNLIKE ARYAMANN</font>
<font size="3">with this session of repeated question and answers he finally slept</font>
<font size="3">NEXT MORNING</font>
<font size="3">as expected,manika and soha came together,it has only been two days since they were together as a couple yet maniki started feeling detached from her,but then he always brushed those thoughts away</font>
<font size="3">m:so lets go guys,competetion ke liye registration bhi karwana hai</font>
<font size="3">al:yeah lets go</font>
<font size="3">fab5 &soha went and got the registeration,then as planned,aryamann and nandini were made to enter together,this boiled maniks blood,but he composed himself</font>
abhi:yaar even i wanted to participate,but hamare paas band hi nai hai,bass navya hai,we need 2 more members,that too the leads,aur last date aaj ki hai

<font size="3">m:what,soha was rite,they still dont have the male lead</font>
<font size="3">ar:um..if u dont mind,i can be the male lead</font>
<font size="3">arymanns suggestion brighten up everyones hope,he without their interference did what they had planned,it seemed as if even god was with them</font>
<font size="3">m:luk,no one asked for u...</font>
<font size="3">n:perfect,cool,its grt,aryamann se better kaun ho sakta hai</font>
<font size="3">nandinis comment once again burnt in the hell of jealousy</font>
<font size="3">m:nandu what r u saying,tum aise kaise kisi ko bhi</font>
<font size="3">n:manik,thats aryamann,i know him,plus its our band and no one asked for ur suggestion so..</font>
<font size="3">nandinis rude behaviour irked manik,he was angry,angry that nandini chose to be with aryamann rather than him,but he kept quiet</font>
<font size="3">mu:but ek prblm hai,tum logo ke paas ek guitarist kam parra hai,i mean abhi will be on the drums,navya on the keyboard,ryamann with the electric guitar but nano toh classical singer hai,haina???</font>
<font size="3">n:oh yeah,ab kya karein,kahan se laye ek base guitarist</font>
<font size="3">everyone got silent,then soha spoke</font>
<font size="3">s:dekha,nothingis gonna work.and smirked</font>
<font size="3">c:ek rasta hai,if aryamann cud teach u</font>
<font size="3">and once again cabirs comment made manik loose all his senses,he was now sure that cabir was a devil in the disguise of a human,sent on this earth to make maniks life hell</font>
<font size="3">m:cabir,tu kya bolra hai,aryamann kaise sikha sakt hai nandu ko?</font>
<font size="3">al:kyu,kyu nai sikha sakta</font>
<font size="3">n:but guys we have just 2 weeks for practice,how will i manage</font>
<font size="3">ar:thats not a prblm,luk ur a veena player,so inti prblm nai hogi,bas if u r ok with it</font>
<font size="3">n:ummm...we donrt have any choice so fine</font>
<font size="3">fab4&gang:VOILA!!!great so jake tum bhi registration karwa do</font>
<font size="3">d:but tumhare grp ka naam kya hoga??</font>
<font size="3">nav:NA4!!</font>
<font size="3">abhi:grt chalo lets go and do it,and the whole gang went with them except for manik and soha</font>
<font size="3">s:manik baby,dont worry,ham hi jeetenge</font>
<font size="3">but manik was not worried about or winning,he cud smilingly loose for nandini but what troublwed him was aryamann being their band member,the more he tried to stop aryaman from getting close to nandini,the more he failed</font>
<font size="3">MANIKS POV</font>
<font size="3">oh god,yeh kya horra hai,nandu and aryamann together,that too in a band,agar iss beech indono ke mann mein ek doosre ke liye feelings aa gai toh??no no,think positive manik,aisa kuchh nai hoga,be positive</font>
<font size="3">no matter how much manik tried to pacify himself,these thoughts were haunting him and he didnt even realize that soha was continously blabbeling something,till then even the gang returned</font>
<font size="3">mu:ok,so finally,lets together,read out the rules</font>
<font size="3">n:rule no 1-the band song must be in hindi</font>
<font size="3">rule2-after selecting the top four bands,there will be a solo performance</font>
<font size="3">rule 3-the solo must be in english</font>
<font size="3">rule 4-participants r not allowed to miss more than 2 classes for the practice</font>
<font size="3">the participants will get 2 weejs for practice</font>
<font size="3">ALL THE BEST!!!!</font>
<font size="3">al:not more than 2 classes,ham practice kab karenge</font>
<font size="3">d:after college</font>
<font size="3">m:hmm..i think aaj ke liye two periods will be enough what say</font>
<font size="3">c:yeah gud</font>
<font size="3">mu:tum log kab practice karoge</font>
<font size="3">abhi:i think hame abhi nandu ko guitar classes deni chahiye</font>
<font size="3">nav:nahi,lets do one thing,abhi practice karte hain,guitar classes toh aryamann nandu ko after college dedega,AKELE,coz agar ham saath honge toh yeh disturb honge,and we have 2 weeks,so 1 week their practice and then hamari practice,beech mein time milega toh saath bhin karlenge like on weekends</font>
<font size="3">navya ALELE again hit manik hard,hard enough to go all numb</font>
<font size="3">MANIKS POV</font>
<font size="3">akele!!!nai yeh dono akele nai jaa sakte,agar inke beech kuchh,agar aryamann ne nandu ko</font>
<font size="3">and in the next 10 secs manik saw a series of events where nandini like a typical bollywood movie,wearing a sarre wud fall and aryamann being the hero will come in the same colour combination cloths,will held her waist tight and wud seductively bring his face close to hers,their lips wud be just inches apart,and that was it,manik was not able to imagine further and tightly closed his eyes,he then said</font>
<font size="3">m:no guys i dont think aisa...and when he opened his eyes his saw sohas confused face,and ,and what was this,the rest were already gone</font>
<font size="3">m:yeh sab kahan gaye</font>
<font size="3">s:manik un ki class hai,class ke liye gaye hain,parr tumhe ky hua,itna paseena kyu arra hai</font>
<font size="3">m:u..kuchh nai,soha tum canteen jao,mujhe kuchh kaam hai main do min mein aara hoon</font>
<font size="3">SOHA LEFT</font>
<font size="3">m:ab main kya karoon,kaise rokoon in sab ko,haan,apne ghar invite kar deta hoon</font>
<font size="3">everyone on a conference call</font>
<font size="3">m:guys,woh i was thinking ki aaj fir milte hai na</font>
<font size="3">n:but manik meri practice hai aru ke saath</font>
<font size="3">m:aru??</font>
<font size="3">n:haan woh aryamann ne kaha hai ki usse aru bulaon,now we r frnds na so...</font>
<font size="3">MANIKS POV</font>
<font size="3">shit,yeh toh bhut fast nikala,iss toh sambhalna padega</font>
<font size="3">m:haan,toh screw it na,waise bhi ham aaj kal mil nai pate so</font>
<font size="3">mu:manik,tu peeke aaya hai,y wud she screw her practices,ham baadc mein kabhi milenge</font>

<font size="3">al:dont act ridiculous manik,it not even sensible</font>
