CHAPTER 6
NANDINI'S P.O.V
Some things are just left undone at the moment only to be done at the right moment. Because, somewhere, I believe has a big hand in the success of everything. As I ran out of the class, because of the bell, I fanatically covered up my face which was hell red and by the rate with which my hormones were working; I would turn into blood dark red by next minute. I breathed in, breathed out and kept walking avoiding the ticklish sensation which just rose from my legs as it reached to my foot through the floor which also kept in contact with whole of the college's feet and his too. What a typical logic? Seriously! You're shitting it up more and more! By the way did I mention, why I was blushing. Okahe, here is it, no if he would buzz in my ear in front of everybody so hell seducingly, then do I have any other option left that making me cheeks go to the intense reds! I guess I can't help myself!
"Nandini, would you just walk a bit slowly?" His voice again echoed in my fragile ears, although making them merrily listen to more of his husky voice.
The thought of the incident in the morning pulled my thoughts with them and my mind unintentionally got diverted in reminiscing the way he tried to run to me and reach up to me, the same way he was doing now.
I didn't look back. Why? Because I was more than enough of red and I just squeezed my eyes tighter making it more embarrassing for me, wondering what will happen if he sees me like this?
"Nandini, if you didn't like it! I am so sorry! I should have controlled myself!" He again reached the exact spot behind me and said a bit louder enough for me to hear but still in a smoothening way which seemed so much of nurturing.
Now this is so mad! I am blushing at that and he is here regretting that. Okahe right! I only scolded him so badly for talking about all those stuffs. Now, does he even have a choice rather than thinking that I walked out of the class only because he fondled me?
I am such an absurd person! Pity on him He must be saying thousands of sorry to me and swear to himself in his mind. I tried my best to let the blush vanish off my face and then when I was prepared already. I turned around just to have a look at him, perhaps, the third time this day. I this time, although; found my two pairs of eyes, checking him out! He just looked like any hell badass with any sort of mixture of all the good looks of all the stunning Hollywood actors. He really looked like a Greek god looks bad boy! His white t-shirt just fitted well and succeeded profoundly in showing his whole of that well-built figure and the black jacket did no less good harmonic disasters in me wore upon that t-shirt. His brow denims had his long legs look well as hell and left no stone unturned in adding to his peak reaching handsomeness.
But, his face, it was just so different and left out. He stood there, his face hung down in shame, a shame; I guess which was held in his ethereal face because of me. Although I wasn't able to look at his face properly, his hair had the messy way of his own, random hairs turned at random direction, some sticky and some maybe rubbed off nicely by his hand. He is SEXY! He shouldn't be here, or I would just...Uggghhh!!!!
"Manik, it was nothing! I just didn't walk out of the class because of you! It was...ummm...ummm" His face pounced up along with a magical smile as I mentioned that he didn't hold any fault in it.
"Was.." He repeated my words and rubbed his back hair as he caught me a blush in the shades of lightest red. They would become the darkest in a while, don't worry about them!
"My shy nature! Sorry!" I did say that with a lot of difficulty but shy was a word so less to express what I felt for him that moment. He smiled wider still and continued flipping the back of his hair because he was shy there too. Maybe, he knew what I was gonna say. I mean I wasn't going to say surely but what I held in my heart to say to his heart.
"It's okay! We both are at fault I guess! Anyways, wanna join us for the lunch? Kris is there too!" He asked pointing towards a table where Kris was seated with Ryan. Others were the Fab 4 and some good looking guys from football or soccer or bla bla team who I guess were friends with Manik.
I was a bit nervous to sit with all of them. I bit my lip just to hold it back but Manik gave me a consoling nod to which I smiled and nodded back.
We reached up to the table and everyone sitting on that table stopped and turned to look towards me. I felt the sort of vibrating line of dizziness ran through me. Still, I put up a small smile on my face which I guess was pretty real.
"Hi Nandini, glad you joined us! Wassup?" Ashton, I guess was the name of the guy who spoke up first and I was taken by surprise. He was one man with super good looks again. His stubble light beard looked damn good with his shirt and jeans. I smiled and wondered why the hell is he glad that I'm here?
"Thanks Ashton! I am doing well." I replied getting out my shock and he gave a gratitude smile.
"You look extra beautiful today, don't you Nandini?" Abhi teased me up as he held Mukti tight in his arms from the next end of the table. Mukti just pointed towards me with a questioning pout and chuckled brightly.
"No, I don't!" I was being me, now!
"You do there girl! No saying no now! You know you look like real fab today! I am sure if you would have shown this beautiful side of you before, there would be the longest line for you lining up all with the boys! Anyways, late is better than ever! And don't forget to count me on that line!" Tyler the boy with golden brown hair who had the apple gobbled up in his mouth moments later flirted with the kindest of words and I snapped out a small laughter.
"Tyler, get your words back or you'll regret them!" Manik snapped back that moment and Tyler made a sorry look.
I glared at Manik and everyone at the table else laughed slowly.
"Nandini, your order?" Manik ignored my glare, got up and asked in a pleasant way which just got my hormones break away from their small nap again!
"I will go take it myself, Manik! You don't need to!" I fought back. It wasn't my cup of tea to have any boy bring food to me. I got up and he glared at me this time.
"Just shut up and sit down Nandini! Anyways, I was going to bring Ryan's and Kris' order and mine too, so you should better break your old etiquettes!" His hands snapped away my shoulders down which made me sit again and I sighed.
"I will have a coke." I replied as I still saw Manik waiting for my reply.
"Just a coke? At least have something more Nandini!" Ryan scolded me softly and I again got dizzy. They will have the death of me today.
"Let me bring a veg sandwich and coke for you!" Manik exclaimed and was about to go, when I again got up from my seat.
Now, literally, if I wasn't hungry and they'll have all the food force down my stomach, I'll surely become frustrated. Anyways, I breathed in and breathed out just to make myself relaxed.
"You know what! That's why I was going to take my lunch! I have a less appetite every day! So please either just a coke or let me bring my lunch myself!" I calmly addressed Manik to which he nodded and gestured me to sit down.
I saw Cabir smiling at me twitching his lips in a manner showing impressiveness.
"So Nandini, how come I never noticed you? You are much of a cool girl!" He said as he found me catching up his smile.
"I don't know. I don't any of the guys noticing me probably!" I just really didn't know but I was happy I met them. They were kind. They were way kind in real life than the way I thought them to be in my thoughts.
"But I guess, every boy on this pretty big table and almost all the guys in the whole college have been checking you out today!" Adrain replied me this time and I blushingly smiled at him. Were they? But, why? I don't look that good!
"That's because of me, say a thank you at least!" Kris objected and I smirked.
"It's because of you. Thus, I won't say a thank you!" I held my laughter back with a lip-biting smile and she hissed at me.
"What's your next period, babe?" Mukti asked as Abhi left nuzzling his lips on her neck for a short break.
"English." I replied still maintain the smile.
"Kudos you can go with us!" Navya jumped up with a joy whose reason was a pathetic one! I mean, c'mon, we just were introduced a few minutes ago! Why the hell would she be jumping in joy to have a class with me!
"Who all are us?" I chuckled and tried to get some details.
"Me, Mukti and Navya!" Matt gave me the detail and I wondered why was he even talking to me? I mean, he was the guy who talked less with girls! Damn less! It would be once in a new moon if he talked with any girl.
I was a bit shocked. "Don't be so surprised! He's a nice guy!" Manik came in appearance and pounced on his chair placing the orders on the respective places.
"The only thing is that he is a gay." Adrain continued and I wasn't shocked that much. I mean that's a normal thing.
"So what's the problem in talking with girls?" I asked smilingly and Matt gave me a WHAT look.
"They will just maybe, dislike me." Matt held his breath and answered moving his hand slowly in both the directions.
"You are surely a nice guy! No one would dislike you, fine!" I just liked him the way he was, simple and shy and that reflected his personality.
"You don't dislike me?" He asked a grin forming his lips.
"No, why would I! I just wondered why you talked less with girls! First I thought you would be so boastful to even do that but today it seems you are just someone different!" I said having a sip of my coke and Matt just smirked this time.
"You're cute, Nandini!" He expressed and I chuckled again. Every one of them smiled at me that time and I couldn't do nothing but think how nicer they could be?
"So you will come with us to the class? We would love to accompany you with us!" Navya broke her hug with Cabir and asked me.
"Yeah sure!" Everyone had left except Mukti, Manik and Navya. As I got up and took one stop, Manik's hand grab mine in wiggle manner and I got jerked away.
"She will join you later Navya, so sorry!" He directly said to them and they both left giving a small evil grin to us. Gee!
I gave him a questioning eyebrow raiser look and he got up from his teeth and pulled me closer. Oh god! Someone just pull him off me or I would literally drain here.
"So how were they, my friends?" That was some kind of weird question but anyways, I am glad he made me meet them.
"Why are you even asking?" I asked making a curious face to which his face became a dried one. Did I again say something which hurt him?
"Weren't they good to you? I am so.." Now this was highly not acceptable! He just can't manage to apologise in every opposite thing.
"Are you mad? They were more than good to me! In fact, thanks a lot you made me meet them! You have really pleasing friends!" I rubbed my thumb on his hand just to tell him I felt a lot comfortable now.
"Thanks to you too! I wonder how you can be so kind to everyone!" My smile rate had gradually increased 5 times more being with him and I was sure it was same with him too.
"Can I now go to my class, please?" I asked for permission sarcastically just to let the moment be light.
"Yeah you can!" He was lost in me and I couldn't help but laugh at how he said a so much of approving yes but still held my hand in his.
I drag our hands upto his face and then I gave him a big forced smile, still nothing happened.
"I would like you to leave my hand as I need to go to my class!" I screamed a little slowly this time, only because I knew he wouldn't take a second to take things wrongly.
He got apart from his lost mind and replied with a slow Hmm leaving my hand which had become wet being acquired by his ones. I wish the wetness and the cologne of his hand could be in mines forever. I just loved it.

Life couldn't be easier as it was already all planned around him. Life couldn't be harder as it was already planned so far from him and this life of mine couldn't be more complicated as it was neither far nor near him. Astonishingly everything was just planned as it was, but everything was not planned by me. The one whom I wanted to love was not decided by me. It was all planned by someone whom I hated the most. And thus, that single infected chord of my life left me breathless and yet my pulse rate syncopating with everyone's in this holy world. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
