Priceless Friendship ~ A KriYaansh & Manika OS

"Do we really have to go in...?" I asked for the nth time to Kriya.

Kriya glared at me and I gulped hard. M sure if I did asked her one more time the same question, I will be strangled down to death.

"Rey stop irritating me, please, u have asked me the same question from the time we have left the house and in no way my answer is going to change, yes we are going inside. It was her wish." Kriya braked.

We were standing in front of rehabilitation center. Well I have heard a lot of things about rehab. But have never visited personally, and here Kriya have brought me to visit one. For heaven sake m not in mood to go inside, it freaking removing hell out of me. Well I know u all might be thinking that why are we standing out-side a rehab, it's not like I or Kriya have any alcohol or drug problem. It like we are here to meet Kriya best friend and my worst enemy Manika.

Well Manika and Kriya was college friend, Manika was always a girl with carelessness and totally opposite to Kriya. But Kriya and Manika had a great bonding. Kriya used to share all her secret with Manika and it was visa-versa. Both had some sort of understanding the girly understanding which usually goes above the head of a guy. Kriya always knew Manika and her drug and alcohol addiction. I heard many time Kriya telling me about how she used to behave when she not got any drug. It was freaking dangerous.

But still Manika is a great friend of Kriya. I remember once Kriya told that how Manika helped her with the money problem. Well Manika was a rich girl with all bad habits but will a heart which rarely any one could have. She is angel for Kriya.

I know you all must be thinking if she was angel to Kriya then why my worst enemy..?? So the reason is very simple she was the biggest hurdle in my love story. Well she always told Kriya to stay away from me when Kriya joined my office. God know why Manika never liked me. She always used to tell Kriya that m the biggest Casanova. M not, well in college day I was a little. But surely m not now.

When I first time saw Kriya that day in my office the last thing I remembered from that day had I had a weak heart. I passed out for few seconds for sure. I skipped a beat. Or maybe it had just stopped beating altogether. I was choking. Then was a strange churning in my bowels. I felt the blood rush down to the ends of my arteries and then burst out. I could my brain imploding. I was going to die. For sure.

Kriya was breathtakingly beautiful. Unrealistically beautiful is more appropriate I guess. All the things that I used to say or write to score with my ex girlfriends had just come true. She was a dream. Even better, you wouldn't even dream of something so perfect. Plastic surgeons still rival God, I thought.

She was so hard to describe. Those limpid constantly wet black eyes screamed for love. There is nothing better than a melancholic beautiful face. She had big eyes of a month old child, big and screaming for attention. A perfectly drafted nose, flawless bright pink lips and milky white complexion that could put a Photoshop to shame. Oh hell, she was way out of my league. She was goddamn goddess. Or she was the devil. She couldn't possibly be human.

And then that was my start of love story with her. Swayam told me she was appointed as my PA, and I was like she is a devil, how on earth will I work with such beauty in front of me for 24 hours? But she was nice. We started to like each other's company and started to go outs. No not on a date, but a cup of coffee's. She was a great friend and used to talk a lot about Manika. And eventually we started liking each other. And after that we felled in love and I asked her out and she gladly accepted it.

But as easily m saying it was not that easy in any sense. Manika!! Gosh she always hard a problem with me. She always used to tell Kriya that she must be another fling for me. But who the hell know I hard fall head over heels for Kriya in first look itself. And who will go and tell Manika to stop doing this.

Well once I remember that Kriya was almost going to break up with me due to Manika. Err, yes! Of-course she knew the rich guy's they always used the girls like clothes. But I was different. Kriya once said that she thinks that I will cheat on her. And to make her believe that not in the world I will cheat on her took hell lots of month. And that's where I started hating Manika.

Well I always had a question, that why Manika thought about me like this. But as time passed out Kriya became mine and Manika too accepted it. Well Manika was in rehab for last 6 months. Kriya had somehow convinced Manika to go over here. It was strange that Manika didn't listen to her parent but she listened to Kriya. That showed me the bonding of these girls. Well I never got chance to meet Manika, and now m getting to meet and that to in a rehabilitation center.

Well it was Manika's wish, it was her birthday today. And she wanted to see me. And that's the reason that we are standing out of a rehabilitation center. Well for Kriya it was normal every month she used to visit once or twice Manika over here, but for me it was first time.

I and Kriya entered the center; well the entrance was as all normal hospital. Kriya walked up to the receptionist and I followed her.

"Hey m here to meet Miss Manika Rathod" Kriya said with smile.

The receptionist looked up and saw me and Kriya and smiled at Kriya, I guess she guess Kriya.

"Madam, enter your and sir's name over here. And go on 1^st floor right hand corner waiting room. We will send her soon over there." Receptionist said in utter politeness.

Kriya entered my and her name in the book of visitor's. And soon we were walking to 1^st floor. I mentally thanked god that waiting room was on the first floor. We walker the way was nothing less than any Hollywood scary movie. It was like a walking dead over here. I wonder if Manika would be like this then..?? And how Kriya did had so much gut to visit the place like this every month. If Manika would be like this walking dead, m sure to faint out. I want to run from here.

Soon I saw a skinny girl entered the ward, well she had wore the dress code for the patients over her which was really a bit bigger to her size. She had a dull face, a Scorpio tattoo on the left hand which peeped out of the dress. But her eyes were twinkling like Kriya's. I guess she was Manika.

Kriya went near her and engulfed her in a tight hug and Manika to respond the same. They were in hug for few minutes. Kriya broke the hug and hold Manika's hand's in her.

"Happy Birthday sweetie, how's my darling...?" Kriya asked with full of love in the words.

And here comes the second reason why I hate Manika, Kriya always used to call Manika darling and all sort of things. I wished have ever Kriya once say darling to me. Well as I said Kriya is different, so she calls me Linecutter. Reason twice I have cut her line. But still I love her. And the main thing is that she is not like other girls which want their boy-friend to call them in that cochy pochy names.

"Thank you, m fine Kriya" Manika spoke, and look behind Kriya "and u must be Rey, right...?"

"Yep, m Rey by the way happy birthday" I said and hold my hand in front of her for a handshake.

"Thank you" She shook the hand and Kriya smiled. We all walked inside and settle down on the table which was kept. Kriya and Manika sat beside each other and I opposite to the beauties.

"Kriya guess what...?" Manika said in excitement.

"What..?" Kriya asked seeing her excitement.

"Doc just told I will be discharged in some 15 or 20 days..?" Manika said with a wide grin, indeed she was damn happy.

"Really..?? Oh my god m so happy. Does uncle aunty know about this...?" Kriya said in happiness.

"NO!" Manika said with a blank face, "I think he is getting bored"

Manika said pointing towards me and Kriya to look at me. I saw just staring at both as if I have just committed something wrong.

"Anyways how's u Rey..?" Manika asked "I hope u don't mind me calling u Rey..?"

"No! U can call me Rey and m fine" I said with a sweet smile.

Err... she was a devil in my story. But not anymore. She was one who wanted to meet me like mad. And now we are meeting. She is exactly the same as Kriya had described her million times.

"So Rey, you know Kriya always talks about you, over here and before me coming over here. She is totally mad for u, haina Kriya..?" Manika spoke winking at Kriya.

Seeing Manika wink, Kriya blushed. Oh god she looks so adorable will blushing. Can I please claim her lips..??

"Same here, She had told me many things about you" I said giving a smile to Manika.

"That's her old habit" Manika said and laughed and hugged Kriya.

Oh!! I so love these two beauties, their friendship. M glad that I meet such a sweet girl. Manika is really a sweet girl. We talked a lot about many random things like her treatment over here and my office and all. I too found a good friend in Manika. We both to sort of started sharing a bond.

"Hey Manika, can I ask u a question..?" I asked her with seriousness and both Kriya and Manika looked at me with puzzle look.

"Shoot" Manika said

"Well it a stupid question, but I always wanted to know why did you always warned Kriya to stay away from me..?" I asked with silly smile.

"Oh lord; this is what you wanted to ask..?" Manika spoke, "U almost scare us with your serious tone" saying this she laughed.

"Rey seriously, for a second I thought the question must be damn important" Kriya said, and joined Manika and laughed.

"Kriya and Manika stop laughing and answer me, I had asked nth time to Kriya the same question and her answer was like Manika will tell u when u will meet her" I said pouting cutely.

"Aww my Linecutter" Kriya said and came and sat beside me and hugged me, "Manika, give him his answer" Kriya said breaking the hug and she hold my hands.

I so love her when she holds my hands. She is such a cutie pie. I looked in her eyes they were full of love for only me. Some - sometimes I think does I really deserve this much love of such a sweet and kind girl? But after all she is with me and I will make sure to keep her happy like this forever.

"Okay, so the reason why I always used to warn Kriya was that you belong to a rich family. I mean me myself comes from a rich background, so I mostly know how rich peoples sons are. They most of the time use the girl and throw them away, and I never want anything like this happening with Kriya. But eventually I got to know you truly loved her. So I stopped. Rey I request you, please keep her happy always" Manika said lovingly looking at me and Kriya.

I removed my hands from Kriya, and hold Manika's hand and squeezed it little

"I promise to keep her happy for m entire life." I said and blinked at Manika and with my another hand I hold Kriya's hand and spoke "And Kriya I promise that I will always be with you both till my last breath"

"Rey..?" Manika said and Kriya smiled at me.

"Manika Kriya cares for you the most, so as much as important you are for Kriya that much only you are important for me" I spoke and looked at both who had a warming smile.

Both Manika and Kriya got up and came near me and hugged me tightly. We were like that for few minutes in the same position. From now both Kriya and Manika were important girls in my life. And I have promised myself to keep them safe forever.

"Rey thanks" Manika spoke, after breaking the hug.

"No need" I said and smiled at her.

"Acha I think now you guys should leave and this was my best birthday ever thanks to you guys." Manika said with tears in her eyes.

Kriya went and hugged Manika tightly. Girls are way too emotional. Soon we bid a quick bye and left the place. It was indeed a wonderful day. Now I know the reason behind Kriya and Manika's bond despite being different from others.

I and Kriya got into our apartment and locked the door behind us. Oh I forgot to tell you guys we both leave together. I sat on the couch and Kriya came and cuddle into my arms, I hold her tightly near me and rubbed her back.

"Thank you Rey" Kriya said looking at me.

"Kriya, you don't have too" I said and claimed her lips and kissed her softly telling her that what I said was from my heart and not because of her.

"Love you" Kriya said when we broke the kiss and she kissed my cheeks.

"Love you too" I said and smiled at her.

After one year,

"Guys guess what..?" an excited Manika shouted

"What..?" Kriya and I exclaimed

"Joy finally proposed me." She said and hugged us tightly and we hugged her back.

"Seriously..?" Kriya asked breaking the hug and Manika just nod her head.

"That calls for a treat" I said and looked at Manika

"Yep my treat, get ready" Manika said

All went in their room to change. Umm my life have totally changed by know I and Kriya are getting officially together soon. Manika's treatment was over and she too used to work in my office, where she meet Joy. I, Kriya and Manika live together. And do lot of fun. Now I can't imagine my life without these two girls they are like my family. Umm Manika once in awhile talk to her parents. Kriya and I are getting engaged next month. In short my life is complete, and without them it would be incomplete.

"Kriya, Manika how much more time..?" I shouted for 5^th time

And to my luck both opened their room door and came out. Kriya was as always breathtaking and Manika was looking cute. Both came near me.

"My two beauties, u two are looking gorgeous" I complimented both.

Soon we left the house and went to the restaurant to celebrate; we ordered some eatables and a cocktail.

"Cheers" we said

"1 for Manika and Joy" Kriya said

"1 for you both" Manika said

"And 1 for our friendship" I said

We all laughed and had a great time together. Finally we all were settled. We all were happy.
