PART 31
" Because you are not deserving what you're getting. "
Manik's word baffled her. She tilted her head to share an eye to eye contact with him.
As she raised her head Manik moved his face to the other side being afraid of getting caught.
With his past 5 months of strange relationship with Nandini one thing was crystal clear to him that his that craziest fan could read his eyes clearly like pure water which actually made him crazy about her.
" Look at me na " she said softly. Her voice was so calm and composed that confused him and he turned towards her. And he had to as ignoring such a cute plead was just impossible.
" I don't know why you're saying all these tonight. But one thing I am sure that something is bothering you. I know our belongings are completely different. You're the moon and me just a mere one who dreamt of touching the moon ,The dream. But I can assure you that you can share whatever you want without hesitation. As because I won't judge you but support. Believe me. Trust me for once to your biggest this fan. Manik promise you won't be disappoint. "
Once again Nandini bowled his worry out . He admired her so lovingly like he was her fan. And that indeed he had became in that short time. And why didn't he? Her maturity her loyalty her love her serenity always awed him. He was so much mesmerised by her that he thanked his stars for His Star , his Nandini.
" I am waiting Mr Manik Malhotra. This is the assessment of my true love for my most favourite Rockstar Manik Malhotra. It's the exam of a fan of proving her loyalty towards her world's king. "
Manik smiled on her craziest fascination with her world's king. And it really amazed him that after sharing relationship with him still how she wasn't over of that fan tag but dipping more into it with each passing days.
" Achcha ?? Loyalty test haan ?? Not bad Ms. Crazy fan. But tell me one thing what's the need of this proof? I mean you're with me. And I know how much crazy you're. But Still you wanted to give proof of being a loyal fan? Like seriously? ? I didn't get that actually. I mean it's weird. Isn't it? "
He confessed his dilemma.
" Nehi toh aur kya karun? If you know how much I am into you . How deep I am respecting you. Then why you still couldn't open up to me? Still you have doubt Manik on my existence in your life ? "
Her counter attack cornered him. Though if was not her but anyone else and was talking with him in that rude tone , he would killed that person. But there the scene was totally different and unique .
Manik chuckled at her pout and replied " I trust you. I have believe in you. And I know how much you love your world's king. But one thing you don't know is about my darkest life. Actually I didn't want you to go through what I have gone through in my past 24 years. You're so naive Nandini. I don't want to be hurt or get suffered for me. "
Nandini had already gathered some idea about his past. So she calmly entwined their hands and said " It's the best phase of my existence. No one can snatch this from me. And jabse yeh jo phase start hua hai living with you tabse ek baat se I am to sure that I am must be very lucky that you have chosen me and giving me so much importance in your life. Your respect towards me really spellbound me. Thanks for coming in my life. "
" No. Thanks for shining in my dark life like my star. " he re thanked her. She smiled and hugged him. He hugged her back.
" Nandini promise me you will not leave me alone. " Manik uttered while hugging her.
" still you want confirmation after that heavy talks? " she playfully replied.
Manik broke the hug and nodded like a child on which she gave a content smile and stated
" I won't. If you will ask for tab bhi Nehi. Because mujhe pata hai you need me as much I need you. I will never leave you. Manik promise. "
Manik was on cloud nine with her words. Her confession broke the rock of doubts inside him and he pulled her for a bone crushing hug.
" Yeee ek minute ek minute " Manik suddenly broke the hug to get nothing but Nandini's frowns.
" What's this 'Manik Promise' ? " he asked with frowns.
Nandini cut her tongue in embarrassment. She was again caught. She literally cursed her stars for making her life so Manik belonging that she had to slip again and again in those embarrassing situations that too in front of Manik himself.
" Wohhh ... Manik promise. Matlab I promised you na for not leaving you. Wohi haan. That's only. " She stammered and uttered with much difficulties that Manik stared at her narrowing his gaze.
" Really? Is it ? Come on Nandini stop lying. Jaldi bolo what's it ? " Manik demanded sternly.
Nandini understood that there was no way left but accept .
" 'Manik promise' matlab the promise I do determined not to break at any cost. From last three years it's became my never ending habit. As my everything starts and ends with you so yehi tum sehi. "
She confessed in a one go avoiding any eye contact.
" Nandini !!! " Manik was again became lovestruck and sighed lovingly. And took her small figure in his perfectly fitted board well toned frame.
" Kaise kar lati ho ayesa? Like how? Bar bar har bar. how do you manage to do all this ? You have never stopped amazing me haan ?? "
He planted a kiss on her shoulder and complimented her . She smiled keeping her head on his chest and replied " And I will continue doing this. "
" Manik promise ? " Manik sarcastically said to tease her. But when it comes to Manik name Nandini was always serious.
So she smiled and kissed his heart and determinedly sealed her words with her " Manik promise. "
Next morning
As usual Manik's " Mithi boliyaan sunlo..." alarmed Nandini's peaceful slumber which she didn't want to break that morning. And Who wants to wake up from the soulful Sleep cuddling your love one ? No one.
Nandini lazily shut her alarm down and slept smuggling more to Manik.
After two hours
" hey sleeping beauty get up. "
Manik tried to wake Nandini for the second time.
" kya hai Manik ? Kyun Pareshan kar rahe ho. Sone do na. Let me sleep. " she lazily stated.
Manik became worried as it was the first time she was refusing to wake up when it was usually her indeed work to sing her morning " Manik wake up na. I am getting late " raga. He immediate touched her forehead and neck to check out either she had temperature. But he sighed relaxing breath feeling her perfectly well.
" kya kar rahe ho? Sone do na. " Nandini frowned in sleep.
" Get up baba. Aren't you getting late ? College nehi jana hai Nandu? " he said removing the hair strands off her face which were disturbing his gaze.
" Nehi jana. " she uttered.
" What? Really? What a surprise that Nandini Moorthy doesn't want to go college. " Manik mocked her.
She unwillingly opened her eyes and found Manik was hopping over her keeping his full weight on his two arms.
" Good morning sunshine. " he immediately pecked her lips softly.
" morning. " she smiled after the kiss.
" What's so special today that you up so early ? " she teased him encircling her hands around his neck and pulled him more towards her.
" aaa haannn !!! Someone is getting Naughty haan " Manik smirked on Nandini's morning half sleepy bold acts.
" You guess " she winked and herself kissed him.
The morning not so hygienic kiss went pretty well. Both kissed soul searingly cherishing each other completely.
Their perfectly complimented lips were synchronising in perfect rhythm welcoming their pressing bodies and awake desires.
" If I would get to know I would be rewarded with this kind of morning dose then main toh daily jaldi uth jata. " he smilingly teased her boldness after the kiss and she hugged him to hide her blush.
****
After more two hours.
" Aree you are still not ready " Manik asked her entering their bedroom after having his work out.
Nandini's eyes got fixed on the tempting amazingly well build covered in sexy sweats. She just couldn't took her eyes off who were ogling so shamelessly. Though it was not for the first time she was watching such a magnetized scenario but surprisingly every singly time seemed to be very new for those poor eyes.
" Don't feel like going college. " she answered then murmured herself " Wase jake bhi kya karun. Firse disappoint hi milne wali hai . And all this for that idiot . "
It didn't get missed by Manik's keen observations. He smirked with the stupefy effect he was having on her.
" Give some rests to your eyes Nandu. " Manik teased her and she blushed hard.
He then turned to walk in side the washroom but halted and asked without any if or but straightly
" Is something bothering you Nandini?? kuch hua hai kya ? You are looking pale . What happened ? Did anyone said you anything ? Did anyone misbehave with you ? Tell me. I swear I will not spare him in one piece. Just tell me hua kya hai ? "
he shouted like a caring possessive boyfriend.
Nandini didn't wanted him to get involved in her silly problems. After all he wasn't a random guy but The sensation of nation Manik Malhotra. A famous celeb.
" Calm down Manik. Itna v stressed wala kuch nehi hua hai. It's just that I am little worried about exams. Nothing much. " she tried to convince him.
" Exam tension ? bus itna sa hi? Ohh come on Nandu . Tell me how much marks you want. Mil jayega. It's not a big deal. " he sarcastically replied with his wide smile.
" thanks but no thanks. I can score good by myself. Don't need your star power . Now leave me. I am getting late for college. " saying she pushed him and walked in the washroom.
" Here the Nandu is back " he mocked and walked out of the room to call Aman.
******
Manik's car. Way to SPACE
" What's the news ? Kuch pata chala ? " Manik asked Aman.
" Not really sir. But I guess college jake we will get to know. " he replied sincerely.
" hmmm " ed he and sank in deep thought. He had asked Aman to collect information if anything happened with Nandini in college. And that's why he was accompanying Manik to SPACE.
" By the way sir after this week you have a concert in Bangalore. The organisers wanted the confirmation from you . " Aman informed him.
" After this week? Niyonika's stupid workshop !! I will get relief from her then. Cool. Give them date. And get that contract signed by me." Manik stated and parked his car at the back side of SPACE which was a hidden parking for him only. The disgusting fact of being a celebrity.
He wore his cap to hide his identity and stepped out of the car headed towards Niyonika's office with Aman.
******
After signing the contract with Niyonika of the workshop Raghav took him to his personal music room where he used to jam.
" Manik you wait I will call your student. " saying he left.
Manik was least interested in the student. He was more excited to give surprise to Nandini. That's why he didn't tell her about his arrival at SPACE.
He so wanted to see her but it was impossible for him to search for her in the college openly off course for the obvious reason of being celebrity.
He then thought to WhatsApp her to meet him . He opened the app and a content smile crept in his face seeing his recent photo shoot picture as her dp.
" Crazy " he murmured and about to type a message when he heard a very familiar angelic voice " Excuse Me. "
He turned and blabbered surprisingly " yaar tum toh Bhartiya police se v jyada fast nikli ? Yahan main ne msg type kia nehi and you came. Strange "
Nandini was shocked seeing him so unexpectedly.
" You? What are you doing here ? Jao tum Manik. "
She rushed near and shook him like a confused soul.
" Ayesa kyun kar rahi ho? Are you gone mad ? " he tried to compose Nandini.
Both of them were too confused to think next but was doing what their present state of mind poked them to do.
" Manik what are you doing here? Go before anyone sees you. " the panicked soul pushed Manik.
" So here you are. " Just then Niyonika entered with Raghav. They straighten themselves.
" Meet your student Manik. Nandini Moorthy. " Niyonika announced with her smirk.
" What ? " both of them shouted in unison.
" Yes Nandini, the famous Manik Malhotra is your mentor. " Raghav stated proudly.
And the next thing baffled the three present there. Nandini then and there fainted.
