CHAPTER : 24Auditorium :
Nandini was standing on the door..what she found in front of her eyes..made her stun..smile was never leaving her lips..and tears were continuously flowing down from her eyes...and then his voice again...
This place remind me of your 1st fear,
when i was responsible for your tear,
i thought i were having fun,
and with my monstrous acts you were done,
i made you scared by creating darkness,
but you filled my life with brightness...
She remembered how Manik scared her by closing all the lights of audi..before he threw her appa's pen..she remembered how much she was frightened and having tears in her eyes..she wiped her tears and start walking inside..with a broad smile..
Whole audi was decorated with beautiful candles..there was no trace of darkness in those lightening candles..and on the wall behind the stage..there were huge banners of nandini's pictures...in whole audi there were lightening effects of fireflies ...everything seems so beautiful...she felt so special that it seems like she is in heaven...on the floor..there was huge white fog...creating a illusion as if she is walking in the clouds...she roamed her eyes..in whole audi..and her eyes were teary..smile was crept on her lips..
Nandini : "kahan ho tum manik..."...she asked looking all around but there was no sign of him..again she heard his melodious voice...
Manik : "inside your heart..."...she smiled and he again continued..."now wipe off those tears..i don't like you wasting those pearls...we wasn't had any good memory in this audi..so thought to create one..."...he paused for some seconds...and shouted loud... "I LOVE YOU NANDINI"...his voice echoed not only in the audi but in whole space academy...now..nandini's happiness has no bound...she just wanted to be in his arms..the person who was once so bad in expressing himself..is now..confessing his feelings in front of whole college...
Manik : "i know..what you must be thinking..am also thinking the same..but..not so early..but by the end of the day..you will be in my arms only..but right now..let's do what situation demands.."...on which she gave a confusing look..."i want you there..which place has marked our first touch on each other..our first eyelock..our first convo...oops..correction..our first fight..."...she was confused for sometime..but then she analyzed his statement...and now she understood ..which place he was talking about...
She in no time reached the place..and the place was..CANTEEN..as for the first time..nandini held manik's hand while saving navya from manik's tortures..before that egg throwing incident...
CANTEEN :
Nandini was standing on the door..again she heard HIS voice..
The day you first touched me,
something became alive in me,
this place has witnessed our 1st fight,
the fight which i made wide,
i tortured you a lot here,
and you thought i can't be fair,
let me tell you a secret my dear,
from always i wanted to be near,
that's why i followed you where ever you were...
A beautiful smile start playing on her lips..with the open of that secret..and she can also sense the happiness in his voice..the smile on his face as well..while telling her the secrets..
She entered inside the Canteen..and she saw..all her favorite food on the counter..from a chocolate ice cream to her favorite pasta..from paysum to dosa..from mixed fruit juice to lemon water...everything was there..red and white heart shaped balloons were scattered all over the floor ..she smiled at his gesture...and again she heard his voice...
Manik : "ek baar pehle..i tried to made you drink that dirty drink...am extremely sorry for that..so i thought to mend a little..that's why brought everything you like...we do have one good memory in this canteen..remember that drunk night.."...and she start remembering how she was about to kiss him that day..she instantly start blushing..and he continued.."i think we should make another one.."...he paused for some seconds...but before he can shout..this time..nandini took the charge and shouted all her heart out..
Nandini : "I LOVE YOU MANIK".,...she shouted to the fullest..and her voice echoed in the whole canteen...and now she knows..the smile must be playing on his lips as well..
Manik : "you never ceases to amaze me.."...she smiled ..and he continued..."now..i can't wait more..so come there..where for the first time we put our egos in a side and joined hands.."...and now it doesn't took a second for her..to realize which place is it...
she ran outside and in seconds..she was there...STAIRCASE...where they became partners for dhruv and rishab's case..and from there only..there love started blooming in their hearts..
STAIRCASE (Behind Music Winks) :
But when she reached there..there was no one..and no decorations were there...she start looking here n there..and just then heard HIS voice again..
Manik : "i know..you must be thinking ...why i didn't decorated this area..so yes..i have a answer..because this place is already decorated with our moments..."...and she smiled remembering all their days...and she heard his voice again...
This place marked our unforgettable journey,
when we were so called enemy,
till we were in love with each other madly..
I still remember,how you lied,
you lost your balance,
and i held you in my arms,tight...
(She remembered..how during rishab and dhruv case ..she lied to manik about the lost of earrings on the staircase..but she lost her balance and he saved her...and then they shared a very close moment...she again start smiling..)
This place witnessed our JUST FRIENDS PHASE,
but the real feelings were on our face,
you were always so stubborn,
i wish i could press the pause button...
(She reminisced ..how while sitting on the stairs..manik tried to kiss her..but she stopped him..by saying "friendship mei yeh sab nahi hota"...she again start smiling broadly...)
This place reminds me of your trust,
for our relationship it was must,
i smiled that day on your words,
as i always wanted to heard...
(she remember how after drunk night..manik teased her..and in return she said "i trust you"... and he just smiled after listening to that...)
Manik : "come out now...i am dying to see you..don't wanna wait more..come right there..from where our story in real manner started.."...she start running outside..she knows where he is...and in seconds..she was there..
And yes..here He is..in the open area of space..where once she punched him..and there story started from there...he was standing on the same place..where she had punched him..she start running towards him...she hugged him tight and he lifted her a little..and swirled her around..whole college cheered for them..fab-4 along with navya and abhi were also there..everyone was hooting for them...there small family is very happy today after seeing those love doves in each others arms...
Nandini broke the hug..but was still in his arms...he adjusted his mike ..which was on his face..
Manik : "I wanted you to cherish our past events..in which we were together...from now on..whenever we will look back..we will only remember our happy times...promise.."...he asked her..and she happily nodded her head in approval..
Manik : "now look at this place..it's the same place..where once you had punched me in front of the whole college..and now see the irony..."..but before he could complete his words..she completed his unsaid words..
Nandini : "that today i hugged you tight in front of the whole college..that punch was out of anger and pain...and this hug is out of love and bliss.."...she said with a grin on which he gave her a content smile...
Now he made her out of his arms..and said..
this place has marked our starting,
i want to mark it as our new beginning,
yes..i want this place to mark our start of new life,
where i want you as my wife...
He smiled looking at her ..while she was shocked that he said all this in front of whole college..he bent down on his knees..and opened his palm in front of her..and she was shocked to find that heart shaped box..which she had given to him on her birthday 2 years back...
Manik : "i Manik..yes..simply manik...i want to ask you holding my heart in my hand..love in my eyes...Will ..."...And his words never came out from his mouth as her sudden action made him stun while others were also shocked..
Nandini : "will you marry me manik..." ...she asked him kneeling infront of him...and he was so numb to react to it...yes..this girl always amazes him with her antics...
Manik : "nandini...you wanted me to propose you..but..."...he asked her still in shock..she made him stand and cupped his face...
Nandini : "yes..i wanted..but i had never thought..you will make it so special for me..from always..am your's only..and now i can't wait any more...you did all this for me...i just couldn't resist myself..from asking you this,..."...she explained him looking deep in his eyes..
Now they both hold each other's hands and said in unison "Will you marry me?..."...they both answerd in unison "yes.." ...and as soon as they completed..whole college start clapping for them...while their small family were having tears of joy in their eyes...and MaNan hugged each other..
Nandini : whispered in his ears "you forgot one place mr.malhotra..which has marked our love.."...he broke the hug and gave a confusing look..she held his hand and took him there...
while fab-4 along with navya and abhi smiled broadly..when nandini dragged Manik with her...
In some minutes..the reached the place ...where for the first time..nandini saw an other side of manik..she opened the door and held manik's hand and entered inside...
Store Room :
Nandini : "manik..this place..reminds me of your fear and my mine too..yours of darkness and mine of rats.."...she smiled looking at him..he turned his face in left side and smiled at her...she held his hand more tightly...
Nandini : "after that day only..mujhe laga..shayad mai tumhe thoda thoda samjhne lagi hoon.."...she said while reminiscing her words to navya that night when they both got stuck in the store room...
Manik : "in this place only..first time i got drown in your eyes...that day when i helped you to come down and our eyes met...kuch tha..kuch alag tha us pal mei..but i being a dumb head..samjh he nahi aaya..ki kya tha wo..."..he said while looking at her..now she came in front of him and encircled her arms around his neck...and he hold her with her waist..
Nandini : "aur us din pehli baar mujhe pata chala tha..that you had a mask on your face..yaad hai how you shouted on me.."...he smiled and start reminiscing ...that how that day..nandini accused him for nothing and he in anger told her that..he hadn't sent those goons to her...and he also asked "why does everything thinks ki yeh sab mene kiya hai"... his trance broke by nandini..
Nandini : "yaad aaya..pehli baar tumhare gusse ne ek acha kaam kiya tha.."..she said smilingly and he held her more tightly..
Manik : "really..humari story kitni ajeeb hai na..the girl who hate stars..became a shining star for someone else.."he said while tucking her hairs behind her ears..
Nandini : she put both her hands on her chest and said "and the boy who used to be a monster became the savior for the girl.."...she said smiling broadly...and he smiled back..
He picked her up in his arms and start walking out ..without breaking the eye contact...he just don't bothered ..how many people were watching them..he just walked towards his car..made her sit in it..and drove away...
Old Malhotra Mansion :
MaNan were walking inside the house holding each other hands..when she entered inside..she saw whole living area was decorated with red and white curtains..whole area was decorated with orchid flowers..on the floor there was a rose petals bed like a red carpet..she just entered inside and smiled broadly...
She turned around to look manik who was standing on the door...
Nandini : "manik..yeh sab kya hai?..and why you bought me here?.."..she asked him ..now he start walking towards her ..and just when he reached to her..he turned her around and hugged her from back.,.after resting his chin on her shoulder..he said..
Manik : "nandini..just look at this place carefully..yeh wahi jagah hai..where i had tortured you..remember you being my spot..and made you clean my room..you left you starving...and.."...but before he could say anything further ..she instantly turned around and kissed him sensuously... the kiss was so sudden..then he was all blank...she was sucking his lips..and exploring the each corner of his mouth..he taken a back..by her so bold avatar..but he let her take charge today..as this kiss depict all the love ..she has for him...she was kissing him madly..and he just hold her tight from her waist..and after a never ending kiss..they broke apart..gasping for air...they both touched their foreheads..closed eyes..breathing heavily...

Next moment..she found herself in his arms..he lifted her up in his strong body..he was walking upstairs..carrying her like..he is carrying a small new born baby...there was a smile on both their faces..he entered inside the bedroom and made her stand on her feet..

Lamho Ki Guzarish Hai Yeh Paas Aa Jaaye
Hum... Hum Tum...

Choolon Badan Magar Iss Tarah
Jaisa Surila Saaz Ho
Hum Hai Re Chupe Tere Zulf Mein
Kholo Ke Raat Azaad Ho
Aanchal Ko Seene Se Dhalne Do Zara
Shabnam Ki Boondein Phisalne Do Zara
Lamho Ki Guzarish Hai Yeh Paas Aa Jaaye
Hum... Hum Tum...
Tum... Hum Tum...
