Chapter 4
NANDINI'S P.O.V
You don't need to understand something when you just know it's not needed to do so. That was Manik for me. I didn't know Manik at all, but I knew I wasn't supposed to know him. The guilt in me, for something unknown lingered to me like it never meant to go. It irritated me like any migraine thing in the nostalgic mind and non-definitely in the heart too. I sighed thinking to whether I have gone nuts.
I pounced up on my bed and cuddled to my pillow, I had a habit and that was my problem too. I couldn't asleep until I cuddle to something or someone and obviously I don't have any one to cuddle to, I had developed a close relation with my sweetheart pillow. At least, it did so much good to me unlike the other people in my life, in this world. Sometimes just you find your happiness in those not-lively things.
I surfed out on the internet but I just couldn't stop myself from looking at Manik's chat box. I don't know why but I expected him to send me more messages. He had a breath-taking display picture in his profile. He just wore a white Shirt whose two buttons were opened from the top and his brownish orange denims suited well with it. His hands found his way into the pocket pans and his lips found a cherishing smirk which every girl in the whole college would want to kiss off from them. I didn't however, I never had a feeling for any kind of guy expect my crushes which included Ian Somerhalder, Matt Lanter, Alex Pettyfyer and my most favourite, Francisco Lachowski. I wouldn't waste any second if I got a chance to have at least a kiss with them, French kiss! Hey! Don't get me wrong! I am not a cheap girl or something like that! But you know, when you just have the chance to touch a person whom you loved all your life and that too only by seeing his pictures, when you get the chance to touch the guy who had your hormones almost grew big like magic balls and your orgasms explode like anything, you wouldn't be able to stop yourself, believe me on that. I just had all these growing feelings for these four itself, in my whole lifetime but anyways, I as planning to add Shawn Mended in the list.
I chuckled at myself and felt asleep, my eyes teary at some thoughts which were too nostalgic like me mind and heart.
MANIK'S P.O.V
I didn't feel so good when she hung up the phone without answering me. That was a question? No it wasn't! **Sigh**! I was feeling rejected as I already told you I have this ego-problem. But, I was feeling shy at this thought! I felt shy more than I felt rejected.
Wonderful! A nerdy girl taught Manik Malhotra, how to be shy, and that too in one night!
I wonder what the hell I will talk to her tomorrow. Yup! I was surely gonna talk to her! Anyhow! Because this girl has managed to attract me and my f**king balls towards her and I won't let her go and that's because I think she is surely not what she shows to the whole world. The day I found the real her, I would make her rocking side come out like hell and shock the people like hell.
I hit my cushiony bed and slept with my eyes closed, avoiding the darkness.
Nandini's P.O.V
I headed to the bathroom as soon as I got up and did my yoga. Did I tell you?? I am a fitness freak, not because I love to be one, but because currently I am learning defence training from my one and only elder cousin sister and I am proudly saying that I have learned three-fourth of it completely and perfectly. That counts on everything I guess which normal girls can't do, but still I don't roam around showing off. I ain't a diva or a Barbie doll. I hated fairies, Barbie and all this rubbishness always manages to get 10 feet above my head and I am happy to announce that too.
I struggled to get in my skinny jeans, vest and a brown jacket. I didn't look nerdy today, but neither did I look so good. Kris had strictly ordered me not to wear my boring clothes and something so weird today just stopped me to be in those pieces of garbage. I headed out with my bag and called Kris.
"Hey, picking me up or not?" I shouted out from this side due to the continuous car horning on the main road. I moved from there only to reach a peaceful place.
"Actually..." Her voice came a bit shy and sweaty. What's in the space, damn?
"Actually..." Her sentenced got hooked up the second time.
"What actually babe, just tell me right! I won't eat you up if you don't come to pick me up!" I said in my softest voice.
"Actually...I am with Ryan!" She blurted out, the warmth of her cheeks maybe increasing, I guess.
"Oh, nice, super nice!" Ryan was someone she had met in a part. They danced; they felt the vibes and the messages started developing between them. Kris really never accepted her feelings. But, now, this was going to be real, I guess.
"He's here to pick me up Nans, sooo..." She was nervous now.
"Hey, it's completely okay! I am gonna take my car today then and I'll give up a drive back home today, only if Ryan doesn't decided to drop you too!" I said and kept the phone in order to let her spend some quality time with her would be baby.
I drove my Volvo around the streets of USA like any local racer, only because I was not interested in getting late even then when much of the time was left for my first class to start. I got literally got fainted as I parked my car in the college premises and got out of my car. People stared at me, for me to mention, that was so damn new. Why the hell where they staring at me? Did I look that bad? But, I guessed, I tried to look a little less nasty today.
I ignored them and started walking in a straight away manner finding my way to my destination? But, hell was with me!!!!
MANIK'S P.O.V
I set an alarm today, onlty to get college soon and my DEAR NANDINI! Lol! Sounds funny! I know! I can't believe I am so in addict with her! I fastened my pace, so it was unusual for everyone to cope up with me today. I panted as I reached the college and girls surrounded me like I was the latest lip gloss in the market. Ughh!! I only know how much I hate this!! I wondered how many of those had lost their virginity because of me! I felt bad today, for the first time for being so filthy! But, I had to make my way any how to reach her. I struggled my way out of that crowd and there was she rushing like a deer chased by a lion. Wait! It was her? She looked beautiful! And believe me when I say that, she maybe the fourth girl after my mom, Mukti and Navya whom I am calling beautiful! Oh god! Did I call her nerd yesterday? But, it's getting the hell out of me!!! I just figured out the next moment, that she was running cum walking with a speed of a rocket and I will not be able to match her up if I didn't run this moment.
I ran after her and the moment I reached in front of her, blocking whole of her body to run more, I blurted out, "You look hot!"
Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! Get the f**king shit out of my mouth!!! Ughhh!!!!! It will pee the hell out of me! Understand Manik! You can't be what you are in front of the whole college! You just need to change yourself this moment, in front of her, please this moment! You have to!!!
"I mean, you looked beautiful, smoking beautiful!"
Not again! Not again! Remove the "smoking" stud!
"I mean, I mean, that you look good!" Yes! That it is!!! It's better! A lot better!!!
As I said that and took a long breath her handkerchief along with her right hand found their way to her mouth, where a cute smiley laugh was appearing, only because my extra-weird behaviour and I noticed that her cheeks held the crimson red blush too. Oh gosh! She is looking more beautiful now!
"You know, you look sexy that way!" I just said that! Oh no!!!!! She glared at me, used her left hand to push me aside and started walking, ignoring me. I won't let her at least his time. I again ran three-four steps and again found myself blocking her.
"Hey, sorry! But, you just need to talk to me! I mean I wanna talk to you! Please!" I did change for that moment. Yesterday I was apologizing! Today, I am begging! Congo!!!
"Manik, will you please move aside!" She said in a low voice which could manage to reach only up to my ears.
"Why, I just wanna talk, and I promise not a nasty talk at all!!" I made a promise now! More amazing!
"Do you understand it's just different here? I am the nerd and you're the most good- looking boy, so please behave! Be what you are!" She literally warned me. I wanted to argue back but I literally had held my anger back only because she stood there looking so extra-beautiful.
"What? Nerd and good-looking! I already said you're looking good! Anyways, I don't care about that! So please!" I tried to make some sense! I guess it didn't.
"Do you even know all of them are staring at us like a big Holocaust scene! Please!" She pleaded this time, but his didn't help. It made her look cuter in my eyes.
I turned my head around to find every single person standing in the college premises looking at us. They stared at us with their big eyes. Were we aliens to stare at? I would scribble my pencil into their eyes! I swear!
I dragged Nandini with me, she didn't fight this time. I pinned her to the wall, I was scared she would run again.
"Manik, this feels so weird! Please leave me! I won't run I promise!" That's when I got to know my hold on her was so tight that it hurt her. I nodded my head in disbelief.
"I'm sorry! I just wanted us to get of their eyes!" I consoled her and she smilingly nodded.
"Nandini, you would talk to me now? Would you be friends with me?" I asked in a sweet voice and she looked at me like a puppy.
"Manik, we can talk but we can't be friends!" She said in a cold voice and I lost my temper.
"What the hell Nandini? The bad boy is running after you like this just to ask you to be his friend and you don't even care about that!" I sounded selfish.
"That's what the matter is Manik, you're a bad boy and I don't know! If it's because of yesterday that your ego is working high and you're doing all this just to make me fall for you or it's just that I am another random girl whom you got on your list to sleep with!" She was literally at the verge of crying but she didn't cry! She acted strong! She was strong! She had a strong point and I couldn't deny that! I was hell of a person in here!
My hand again found their way to her shoulders. Softly this time! "I am sorry! I am damn sorry again! I am a jerk I accept! But, I promise I ain't planning to do either of the things with you! I just wanna be your friend! And it doesn't matters to me what the whole college says, I just wanna be your friend! Can you please trust me with this! Just this one time!" Now I was sad, sad in a condition critically sad.
She looked pale for a moment and then after whole five minutes, she gave me a smile and nodded. That was a teary smiley faced nod! Sweet one! I smiled back and held her hands in mine and started dancing with her like a maniac. I was a total gone for that moment! Yuck!!
"Manik!" She screamed slowly and I noticed what was I doing?
I made a pleading look and she grinned.
"I need to go!" She said and I nodded.
As she had reached the end of the corridor, I shouted, "Still sure, you aren't interested in me?" Why the hell I couldn't let her topic go? She smirked. She wasn't taking that seriously now. I didn't want her to do so.
"Not at all, friend!" She teased me, for heaven sake!
"I bet yup will be in the next coming days, this game's a sweet one! So let's switch it on!" I announced.
"Okay, the game! But be decent! Bye!" She said maintaining her smile and went away.
