EPILOGUE
Manik's POV:
Me:"Nandu.. sorry na"
This was probably the tenth time i was saying sorry but she was not at all showing any signs of mercy. She was sitting with a grumpy face on her bed whereas i was kneeling down in front of her. Yeah, she gave me punishment. Now, Can you believe it? Perks of being boyfriend of Miss. Nandini Murthy. Vo aisa aisa punishment laati kahan se hai? My knees were paining so bad, but this girl right over there sitting with "Your mistake, your punishment" face was doing nothing but busy seeing me die like this.
Me: "Nandu baby, I am sorry. Dil se sorry."
I again said but huh! She is a monster.
Nandini: "No Manik. You always do this. You said that you will support my team but but..." She said turning her face and wiping few dramatic tears. I bet she could be a TV actress.
Me: "I am sorry baby. You know i am always in support with Mumbai Indians, vo to main bas mazak kar raha tha.."
Yes! Me and my little girlfriend was fighting because of IPL. Now, what could be more childish? Apparently, the thing is we both decided to watch the first IPL match of this season together.. she is in support of Mumbai Indians and well i am with Rising Pune Supergiant. But you know how girlfriends are, right? She convinced me to be in support of Mumbai but well when Pune won i couldn't control my excitement and burst out clapping and hooting and then the rest is history.
Nandini: "Mazak? Seriously? I know you are from Pune but currently you are living in Mumbai, so be loyal. Okay?"
She glared at me angrily.
Me: "No. Its not that. Vo to you know na how much I love Dhoni. Nahi to main to humesha se hi Mumbai ke support mein hoon. Aur aaj bhi, vo to i was just teasing you."
I said making the best innocent face.
Nandini: "Really? You know what tum na desh drohi ho."
She said.
Me: "Desh drohi?"
Nandini: "I mean city drohi. Tumhe to Mumbai se hi bahar nikal fekna chahiye.."
She said stomping her foot.
Great! So now i am City Drohi. But Nandini isn't because she is in support of Mumbai and it doesn't matter if it is just because of Hardik Pandya and Rohit Sharma. Great! Just Great!
Me:"Nandini this is our time. Don't bring anything else between our love. Vaise bhi azer two days we are getting time for us. Now no more cricket only love, love, love and love."
I said in an over dramatic tone and went and sat beside her . We both were staring at each other when suddenly i started tickling her and she bursted out laughing. We both fell on the bed laughing and i started tickling her, hard. Her laughter made my heart tingle with happiness. No matter, howsoever she is.. the fact is I Love Her and I Love Her Very Much.
Nandini:"Manik.. i am still gussa. I will only forgive you when you'll watch Raanjhanaa movie with me."
She said pouting.
Me: "No na.. you know i am not in Bollywood."
I chided.
Nandini: "See yahan pe bhi you are not supporting your own country. Please na Manik.. pleashh!"
She gave me a fat kiss on cheeks and we both again started laughing. After our laughter subsided, we both stared at each other intently and after giving her a quick peck on lips, we both settled down to watch the movie. The movie was in between and everything took me back to the moments i spend with Nandini. The first time when i saw her from my window i fell in love with her. Her cute antics, her smile, her anger, her attitude, her love, everything.. I was dying to talk to her, but words refused to come out of my mouth. Her presence used to make a havoc in my senses. My each and every song was only for her. Whenever i used to see her with Dhruv, my heart used to break a little but still i had a hope. A hope that she'll be mine. And my hope brought me here, beside her. Yes, there was many rumours about her but i believed in none. I had faith in her then and i have faith in her now. She is gem of a person. That day i was standing in the parking lot of my apartment, when i heard Dhruv speaking on the phone.
Flashback...
Dhruv: "Yeah, today I'll teach that Nandini a lesson. Enough is enough."
He spoke.
Dhruv: "No no.. nothing will happen, her mother and brother trusts me blindly. Yeah. Bye."
I was fuming in anger but before i could do anything Nandini came and they both went to school. I sat on my bike and was about to kick start it when Rishabh came. I told him everything and we both rushed to school on my bike. Thank God, we reached there on time varna that bas*ard was going to kiss her.
Nandini was so vulnerable that day. It broke my heart to see her like this.That day i was there when Rishabh and she was talking. I wanted to make sure that she was fine and i was glad that Rishabh was supporting her. I wish i could take all her pain away. She deserves happiness and only happiness. Then i messaged her and when she said that she had a crush on some Mannu, i really wanted to kill him. But when afterwards i asked her about this she told that she was talking about me.
Aww! She is love. Now also, whenever she is in a romantic and in love mood she calls me Mannu only and then it doesn't matter if we are in school or home.
And the night that followed was the most beautiful night. I saw her from my window sitting all curled up in a ball and she was shaking. So, i quickly went to her room and her state made me feel terrible. She was looking so broken. I was happy that at least i was successful in making her calm down and trust me the pain on my back was nothing in compared to her pain. She cried because i was in pain.
And then that kiss...it was my first kiss, it was her first kiss, it was our first kiss. And after that i even lost the count of kisses we had. I told her about my feelings and she reciprocated it. What more i could ask for? She slept in my arms and when i was about to go back, i saw Rishabh who was grinning like a fool. He said that he heard everything and wanted to help me to confess her properly. We both cleaned her room and after giving her a last peck i went to home. Next morning, i woke up early and made all the arrangements. Surprisingly, whole school was ready to help me except few people who were just unnecessarily jealous. I met Alya and she confessed that she had a crush on me but being a good friend, she readily accepted to help me and Nandini to become together.. and i couldn't be more happy. After all these ups and downs me and Nandini was still together from past six months, happily in love.
The movie ended after some time and we both were in tears. Hell! The movie was so emotional.
MaNan: "How can Kundan die?"
We both said in unison and crashed in each other's arms sobbing.
Nandini: "That girl was so unlucky, she didn't knew the value of true love."
Nandini said and snuggled more into me.
Me: "Nandini, don't you think that we should kiss?"
I said.
Nandini: "Why?"
Me:"Arey.. aise emotional scene ke baad to kiss hi hota hai na.."
i said in a childish tone and she chuckled.
Me:"Tum aise hi haste raha karo.. tum rote hue bilkul bhi achi nahi lagti.."
i whispered pecking her forehead.
Nandini: "Tum bhi.."
She said.
Me: "So decided no more emotional movies. From now we will watch only romantic ones taaki hum log ke beech mein bhi kuch romance ho."
I said as a matter of fact tone and she chuckled. She pulled my collar and placed her lips on mine.Muttering "I Love You" Every kiss with her seems as first. It is not that we didn't fight. Hell, we fight worse than kids but at the end, we both didn't let our egos empower us. What matters the most is We Love Each Other!
