Her and Only Her ll KY2 OS

Dhruv, Alya, Cabir, Mukti, and I walk into the farmhouse. It was decorated with flowers, lights, and possibly everything, that would make it look like a honeymoon suite. Everyone's eyes wandered around looking for the answers to their question about this house. Everyone walked around a bit, and then came back, again.

"Manik, you didn't tell me we were gonna have a make out session! I am not ready!" Cabir said, teasing me. Everyone broke into laughter, except me.

"Cabir, Cabir, Cabir. Shut up, before I end up kicking you, all the way to Canada. Don't angry me!" I said annoyed. Everyone looked at me, and then I ended up laughing and everyone else joined me.

As we were all enjoying this moment, Soha walked in, with pounds and pounds of makeup, that looked ready to fall off her face, anytime. We all slowed down our laughters, and gave our attention to our so-called "band manager".

"So welcome guys. I have a special night planned for all of you!" She said, with a dirty smirk.

"Uhmm, Soha didn't we leave S.P.A.C.E, to get away from distraction, in the first place? And aren't we "focusing" on music, not special nights?" I said, annoyed. And then, I realized why I was annoyed. I missed her. I missed Nandini so much, that all I wanted to do was, run out here, drive my car faster than a cheetah, and see her smiling face, which never fails to brighten my day.

"Manik, don't worry. I am the manager, and I got everything planned, and it is planned per your likes and dislikes." She replied.

"Soha, can you stop with these nonsense talks and just get to the damn point!" Mukti said, annoyed. I don't know what has gotten into her lately, she just doesn't act like the Mukti we saw, few days back. Now, she looks like she has wandered off somewhere, like she isn't even involved with anything that goes around her. She always looks frustrated, annoyed, and depressed.

"Calm down, Mukti. It isn't gonna to effect any of the music things, this manager knows how to do her job!" Soha replied.

The way she said "this manager'", I knew it was directed towards Nandini. It annoyed me so much, but I knew I couldn't really to anything about it, since the album was in her hands. I just decided to stay silent. Silence is the best answer for a fool.

Soha again started blabbering, I just wanted to talk to Nandini, and get this over with. I don't even know, how I am gonna survive THREE days without her. I just let everything Soha was saying, go through one of my ear and out the other. I was getting tired of hearing her annoying voice. I finally decided to stop her from talking.

"So Soha maiya, if you are done with your speech, can we maybe go rest, freshen up a little before we start with the music thing?" I said, with annoyance in my voice.

Cabir added, "Can we also have some food? I don't think you would want us to die young! We still have a music album to publish." Now everyone cracked, except for Soha.

Soha fake laughed, and added, "Whatever, boys. Let's flirt later, but like Manik the handsome said, we will all go freshen up and meet here at 7. And Cabir my baby, there is some food in the kitchen, go grab it for ourselves. I think you can at least walk for food, without me holding your handws."

Everyone just gave her the dirtiest looks on earth. I could tell everyone hated her.

"Soha, I think you should just respect us, maybe. And let us do it our way!" Alya said. I just heard her talk after a long time, she hasn't been talking to anyone much other than Dhruv.

"Alya, is right Soha!" Dhruv added, with a shy blush and then looked at Alya. She also looked back at him, with a shy smile. Dhruv and Alya have been passing those smiles to each other, a lot lately. They looked away from each other, and then I saw Dhruv's hand secretly touch Alya's hand. I feel like there is something going on between them. We have to clear this out, but I couldn't trust Soha, so I decided to bring that up when it was just Fab 5, not with Soha around.

"Okay guys, I will lead all of you into your rooms." Soha said, fixing her hair, like she was ready to do something special. She went up the stairs, and we followed her.

As I climbed each stair, I kept thinking about Nandini. I knew, that the moment I entered my room I would call Nandini, and listen to her melodic voice, which sounded like poems, even when she spoke.

We entered a hallway that was decorated almost as much as downstairs, or maybe a lot more decorated than downstairs.

There were blue, red, green, and pink lights everywhere. There were just as much flowers as the lights. I swear to god my eyes were gonna burn out seeing all these colourful lights.

"Soha darling, are you on a honeymoon all by yourself?" Cabir asked, laughing. And everyone, obviously, except for Soha, started laughing.

"Cabir, can we not get started? I think it will be better for you, me and EVERYONE ELSE TOO!" Soha said, it like a command.

"Okay, whatever. Show me my room, Soha!" Cabir said.

Soha pointed to a room, that was almost beside us and said, "Cabir, that's your room. Go and BEHAVE PROPELRY!"

"Yes, sir!" Cabir said.

And everyone else, except for Cabir walked more into the hallway, and we saw five more rooms.

"Well Mukti, that's your room." Soha said, pointing to a door that was almost across from Cabir's.

"Well, see you guys later." Mukti, said in a low and frustrated mumble. What has gotten into her, ever since have left school, she has been quiet, out of place, and somewhere else in the world. She walked into her room, and slammed the door.

We walked farther into the hallway, and Soha pointed out Dhruv and Alya's rooms, which were across from each other. Dhruv and Alya both bid their good byes, and shyly looked at each other, and entered their rooms.

"Can I just go to my bedroom?" I asked Soha.

"Yeah Manik, I am just saving the last for the best." She replied, again with that dirty smirk on her face.

She finally walked, and stopped in front in the hallway, where two rooms were directly across each other, so I am guessing the one of them was hers, since there weren't any more rooms left. And decorated, decorated crazily, and when I say "crazily", I mean it! It had heart stickers all over the door, with heart shaped door knobs.

"So Manik, how do you like your room?" She said, as she opened the door to my again, crazily decorated room. The bed sheet, the pillows, were all, so romantic, that I wanted to puke. I looked around, and walked a little farther than Soha, who was a little too close to me.

I turned around, and saw a little table and I set my guitar there. As soon as I set my guitar I felt two arms wrap around my back.

I jerked away quickly, "WHAT THE HELL, SOHA?"

I stepped back, and look at her with surprised, confused, and angry eyes. "What the hell do you think you are doing?!?"

"Manik, I'm sorry! But I really like you, and I can't see you with anyone else. I know, you l0ve me too. But you feel bad for that Nandini, that's why you act like you, love her!" Soha replied.

"First of all, how the hell do you know about Nandini and I? And second of all, I DON'T LOVE YOU AND THRID OF ALL, I LIKE NANDINI FOR WHO SHE IS, NOT BECAUSE I FEEL BAD FOR HER. I LOVE HER, FOR WHO SHE IS, NOT BECAUSE I FEEL BAD FOR HER!" I replied, furiously. I just wanted to slap Soha, but I know better than t0 attack a fool. How can she even think I like Nandini, because of that?!? And how does she know about Nandini and I?

"Manik, I couldn't see you with Nandini, and on New Years' party, I followed Cabir. And found that address and came to you. I was there, and I tried my every way to separate you and Nandini. I can't see you with her, Manik. I just really love you!" Soha said, and came closer to hug me.

I jerked away, from her again. "SOHA, I CAN NOT EVEN BELIEVE YOU WENT THAT FAR! I EXPECTED SO MUCH FROM YOU!" I tried to calm down, I softened my voice, "Soha, listen, you deserve someone better than me, who will love you for who you are. You deserve to be happy, you were looking at a wrong person, all this time. I can not love you! I love Nandini, she is my shining star, my lover and so much more. I love her, and only her. Soha, there will be a better Manik' in your life, who will love you, who will give you all the love you deserve."

I couldn't even believe, I just said that. That didn't sound like me. It is probably Nandini Murthy's "treat others nicely, be good to be evil" speeches, finally going into my head. Now that I think about it, I know I have done a good job. Being harsh, towards Soha would've made the situation even worse.

I looked back at Soha. But now it was, Soha with eyes that regretted, with tears asking forgiveness.

"Oh god, Manik, I'm so sorry. I was being so childish, I got so involved with winning everything that I liked, that I hurt so many people. I didn't think, twice about it. I am so sorry." She said, between tears.

I put my arms around. It was a friendly hug, not the friendly one, like mine and Nandini's. Actual friendly one.

"Soha don't be sorry. Everyone makes mistakes. You just gotta learn from them, which you are doing right now." I replied.

"Manik, I feel so horrible. I don't even know if Nandini will every forgive me. I screwed up so badly." She slowly pulled away from the hug.

"Don't worry, Soha. I will make her understand. I don't even think I'll need to explain it to her, she will get it, she will get you and what you were going through."

"I don't know how to repay you back, Manik. After all this, you still don't hate me."

"Don't worry about it, Soha. YOU don't need to REPAY me. Now just go and rest, we have a long day tomorrow. Don't worry about the recording today, I will tell everyone else. You just go and rest, and please don't thinking about all this, especially the repaying part of it." I said, as I opened my door for her.

"Goodnight, Manik." She said, as she pushed the door, and walked across to her own room.

"Night, Soha." I said with a smile, just before she closed the door to her room. As soon as I closed the door, I felt two arms wrap around my back, and these arms felt familiar. They came out of nowhere, but I could still tell it was her. I could smell, her rose scented perfume.

I looked down, and there she was. The love of my life. Nandini Murthy.

"I heard, everything you said, Manik. And I love you too." Nandini said, with a joyful voice, as she hugged me tighter.

I smiled, my biggest smile. But how the hell had she gotten HERE? I am going to ask her about it later, because right now I just wanted to be here, in this moment, with her. Her arms around me tight, like she could never let me go. Like we were never gonna let go of each other. I closed my eyes, to feel the warmth and the most beautiful feeling of having the love of my life, in my arms. I tightened my grip even more, making sure, that even the air wouldn't come in between this hug.
