My heart stops beating I lose my breath. What is this and why a sudden threat that he or she knows him more, more than me why is everything getting so messed up first Harshad an now.. Wait a min is this him I saw how Manik was when he met him and now all of a sudden I got this should I tell Manik about it? All these things were running in my mind but I was unable to think at this time I need rest. As i walked inside the house to see Alya sitting and having wine I quietly went and took her glass and finished in one go "well hello to you too" said Alya looking at me I just nodded and filled my glass again to drink "what is up with you girl" she asked but I was not interested in listening any of it I keep drinking when she stopped me "easy easy n tell me what is the matter did you and Manik fight?" I nodded in a no "Nandini speak up will you tell me what is the matter?" I look at her "he is a jerk that is what the matter is" she laughed "care to explain why?" "don't ask just leave it right now he is the last person I want to talk about right now it's too much for one day" I say "We're going out" "Are we?" I blurt that's the last thing I want to do. "Yes I'm not letting you mope around any longer. Has he called?" She takes a drag of her words and looks at me expectantly. I wish I could say yes. "No" her lips purse and I know she's thinking it's strange too. "Get showered. We are going for a quiet drink" I nod in agreement I also need some alone time with her "Come on Nandini we have not been out together for weeks. Just a sensible glass and a chat not about Manik or Dhruv or anything for that matter just us two like old times before all of these men got between us" We did have some laughs in those weeks, before The Manik Malhotra turned my life upside down. "Okay" I get up from the table. "You are right. I will get ready" "Fab" She smiles and we leave the hall together to get ready for a quiet drink and a chat.
He is constantly on my mind, and I'm trying my hardest to put him to the back, but when we walk into the club "Wine?" Alya asks as she scans in at the bar "Please" I cast my eyes around and immediately spot Abhi and Mukti. I am shocked they are together here I tap Alya on the shoulder and she turns her head slightly. "Did you know they would be here?' I ask. "Who?" I nod in the direction of Abhi and Mukti who are dancing together. They have no idea what's happening in my life. I can tell by Alya's eye roll that she didn't. They saw us and walked towards us this can be an opportunity for me to ask Mukti about Harshad because as I know Manik won't tell me anything "Love the dress" Abhi says I look down at the tight, black jersey dress that I borrowed from Alya. "Thanks" I take the glass being handed over by Alya. "You okay?" Mukti asked me. I look at her and just nodded am I okay well let's see first finding about my guy's father who left him to cry then a guy enters in my life and flirts with me and all of a sudden I find out that my guy has some connection with him and when I ask him he shouts at me throws me at my apartment and when I was about to get in someone sends me dead flowers with a threatening note saying to leave him this pretty much clears that I am not okay "you don't seem like something happened didn't it?" she asked curiously "just a fight" I said she nodded only like she knew I was not telling the whole story to her I thought I should but then what will I tell there is so much I don't even know from where to start. I gulp few more glasses of wine I was fully drunk words of Manik were hanging in my mind his anger the way he again shut me out of his life tears welled from my eyes its night and no calls from him what was so important that he was ignoring me this is the second time this is happening and I don't have anything to say to him why I always go so weak in front of him I love him so much that it hurts too lot to see him shutting me out.
Manik POV
I was still with Cabir trying to understand the mess which is been created In front of me or the new stuff which will be soon part of me too "Manik" Cabir called me as I was resting closing me eyes "hmm" "where is Nandini?" "at her home I dropped her there" he nodded just then I heard my phone ringing it was Mukti I didn't want to attend but I did any way "yes Mukti" I hear loud music is she at the club or what? "Where are you" I ask her "Manik you need to come to the club right now" I stood up tension caught me "are you okay something happened?" I ask her "no it's...its Nandini" my eyes flew open "what happened to her? I am on my way" I ran outside Cabir followed me this is all my fault if something happened to her it will be all me god please let her be okay.. Please I enchant these as I rush my car towards the club. I enter to see too much crowd but my eyes are searching for her only my girl then I spot her dancing with a guy "what the hell" I walk passed the crowd she was dancing to close to the guy... is she drunk? The guy tries to kiss her she is trying to move back but the grip is too stiff for her she was saying no to him but the guy "I believe the lady said No!" I hiss through my teeth as I emerge from the darkness. It's taking all my self-control not to jump at him, and beat the crap out of him. He lets go of her. As I see his face my anger boils more "Sinha?" he smirks at me and I punch him hard on his face making him tremble as he falls down "Manik" Nandini says my name as she ran to me and I circle my arms around her and Cabir came from behind "Manik easy relax" he says trying to stop me "take her to the car Cabir I will handle him" "no Manik you won't security is here Nandini is not in her right condition she is crying half-drunk take her home Manik" he says as I look at Nandini when I saw Mukti and Alya with that guy Abhi "you were supposed to be with her right then how she land up with him" I shout at them Nandini was sobbing in my arms "baby hey hey you okay" I ask her she didn't say anything the drink got to her "Cabir I will talk to him tomorrow handle him" he nods as I pick her up and carry her in my arms, and hoist her into the car. Aryaman drives us to the condo. I carry her to the condo in my arms like the most precious cargo, like a child. I gaze at her beautiful face. She's so captivating. I just want to run my fingers through her hair and face, and feel and gaze at her. I see tears marks on her face guilt raises in me this is all my fault she is suffering because she is with me I left her at her house without answering anything to her and am sure to avoid me she went to that club that bloody Sinha I am so fu**ing going to kill him he tried to hurt my girl. I'm bewitched by this innocent girl. Completely taken, she's here in my bed, and I'm completely helpless against her. Against this sleeping beauty
I kneel on the floor and unzip her dress and pull them off her revealing her flawless long legs. I pull the duvet over her; sit in the chair watch her lay in the breathing slowly. It gives me an enormous amount of peace she is my peace my life. I just want to crawl next to her, and hold her all night. I get changed, and turn the side table light off. I take her in my arms she snuggles closely making me smile she knows that it is my touch and I sleep peacefully forgetting about the day which just past.
I wake up early after what felt like the most restful night next to my Nandini. I could watch her for hours, but I need to work out to get rid of this tension which is still in my mind and the anger I have for few people. I leave by the bedside table a glass of orange juice to give two pills Advil to get rid of her hangover. I work out hard after what feels like an eternity I get back to my room seeing her awake, and her eyes watch and trail me. As her eyes linger on the sweat stains of my workout pants, her breath hitches, and that reaction does something to me but I distract myself "I see you are awake" she nods "good that you had the juice and medicine I kept for you" she nods again "we need to talk" she nods again "nandini will you speak up" "Manik I don't know how when that guy caught me I was so drunk.." anger raised in me "I bet you were is this how you do stuff you were angry on me right so you went to the club got yourself drunk and were dancing with a guy and that to Sinha bloody jerk tried to kiss you" I shout at her I was really not in a mood to listen "Manik will you stop shouting" she says "really am shouting what was that nandini how can you be so drunk what if I wouldn't have reach on time your friends were totally busy in themselves to even see" "i was because the guy who claims to love me threw me at my apartment without even answering my questions" "listen nandini i didn't threw you i dropped you" i said trying to clarify "where were you Manik all this while?" She asks quietly "i was at Cabir's place" i said softly "and you didn't bother to call me you were planning to shut me out again right how long this time 2 weeks or more" she said as tears came from her eyes "Nandini baby it's not like that" i say to justify "then please explain to me Manik how it is like" she said standing in front of me "Nandini do you trust me?" i ask her if she does then there is no point in arguing "you know the answer Manik that i do trust u cx if i didn't i wouldn't be here" she says looking at me "then believe me when i say it is not the right time you will know when you will trust me also when i said stop working with Harshad i meant it because i want you safe it is not some jealousy" she looks at me as if she is trying to sink in to my words "until you tell me what is your deal with Harshad I won't quit my work yes i trust you and yes i will delay my meetings with him but no i won't quit give me an answer then i will i told you Manik i won't leave you when will you get that you asked me do i trust you how about i ask you do you trust me because your behavior says different" she said in anger this is the first time we are fighting like this and i so want to stop and kiss her right now but i know i can't this is not the time "baby please understand the situation is not that easy" i plead "well then make it Manik let me in because a relationship works on trust not when i trust you but you don't, think about it am off to work i have a meeting" she says and leaves me hanging. I stood there as i heard the water of shower falling down my cellphone rang and bought me out of the trance "Cabir?" "Manik you need to get to the office ASAP" he says making me tensed "what is it all okay?" I ask "get here Manik now" i sigh and got to get ready. What is left for this day now i really have no idea?
I walked out from the guest room she was already gone anger raised in me she just left without even talking to me "god this girl has the power to make me crazy" i called her but she disconnected and after a while a message popped up
Going for a meeting already late
Get your anger aside and go to work
Nx
So she knows that i am angry i roll my eyes and walk towards the elevator to leave for office.
Nandini's POV
I reach my office when Mukti informs me that the client has arrived and am in the conference room waiting for me. I walk inside to see a woman waiting for me "hi i am Nandini" i offer her my hand she smiles "Soha my name is Soha" she says i look at her fair complexion long layer cut hairs she wore a white fitted knees length dress which showed her right parts correctly she was a beauty i must say "pleasure to meet you nandini" she says i nod "please have a seat" we both sat on the chairs comfortably "so how can i help you Soha" i ask her "well i want you to design my office" she says i look at her "i am sorry didn't Mukti the inter told you am already booked?" I ask her "oh yes she did but i want you as i heard you are working with such big people like Malhotras and Saxenas i want you as my designer too" so she has done her homework i say "well Soha i can't commit you know already a lot on my plate" "come on nandini you can do it for me please i really want you only" she says as she holds my hand god this girl is something "Soha relax i will try why don't you show me your office then i will figure it out how to do it" she smiles brightly like she wanted this her smile was of victory "great thanks nandini" i smile a little "so i will fix an appointment for you" i take my diary out and started to note down the details "Soha what?" She arches her eyebrows "I mean your sir name?" I ask "oh it's Soha no sir name i don't have one" I nod and wrote It down "your office is where and what is your profession" i ask her "well I am a fashion designer an my office is at 24th street" i note it down "okay Soha i will see you next week on Thursday i guess" she smiles "that will be great" I stood up and shake her hand, n walks towards the door of the conference room
"btw Nandini you and Manik Malhotra are you guys dating?" She asks me oh no not again why is everyone so interested in my love life "Excuse me?" I ask her "just out of curiosity the tabloids speaks a lot you know" i nod "Soha i will see you on Monday" i say in a stern voice she leaves quickly after that why the hell will I answer her about my love life "what is up with everyone" I shout and walk to my office n take my seat when Alya walked in "what's up girl you okay?" She asks me "why is love so difficult?" She giggles "it's not Manik Malhotra is" i look at her with a glare "btw he was quite pissed last night" i nod "ya i saw it all today even i am pissed but now i am missing him so much" i say "awe that is what love is honey go meet him then?" She says to me "no I can't he is busy don't want to disturb him" as we were talking Clare walked in and took Alya with her for some discussion leaving me all to myself. I thought about Manik our issues Harshad the threat was all like the world is telling me to back off from him he is not the guy for me yet my heart loves him and i just can't walk away he made me feel alive he gave me his heart how can i just leave him like this i just can't he needs me. He deserves all the happiness and i will give him every bit of it. I was lost when my phone rang and it was his tone i smile and picked it up "i need you" he says his voice had that intensity which clarified that something happened "what happened Manik is everything okay?" I ask him my heart beating fast as if it will bounce out of my mouth "baby now" he says i stood up " where are you?" I ask him walking towards the exit "outside your office" he says in a small voice "i am on my way" i literally run outside towards him.
Manik's POV
I saw her coming towards me i lift my arms up letting her fall into them i circle them and hold her tight "Why do we fight?" I finally whisper to her. My teeth graze her earlobe. "Because we're getting to know each other Manik and you are stubborn, moody and difficult" she murmurs in a breathless tone i took my hands away and opened the door for her to sit and took her in my lap I nuzzle her neck. She shifts her head and arches her neck to allow better access for my lips making me smile. "Nandini I am all those things. It's such a wonder you put up with me" I say as I nip her earlobe sending shivers down her spine making her moan with desire. "Is it always like this?" I sigh. "I've not idea" she murmurs. "Me neither" I say "What's the matter?" she asks. I don't want to talk about it. I shake my head. Whatever the hell it is its pretty f**ked up I know one truth and that's a pure and simple one "I love you Nandini Oberoi" I say with all my heart she smiles and drops a peck on my lips "i love you more" she says and i smile but still my eyes are on her innocent face how will she cope up with all my baggage will she be able to handle it "what is it Manik" she asks again "Harshad he...he ...is my stepbrother"
That's all for now
