Chapter 11 A

When a new day arrives, a person thinks about either the positive parth or negitives, or sometimes both. But what a person should think is about the positive happenings because positive thoughts overpowers negetive thoughts just the way good triumphs over evil. The the arrival of the sun and its rays, with the melody of bird's chirping, while watching the greenary around, think about the happiness which are knocking at your doorstep rather than the meloncholic reasons which will come as well as walk out of your life.


Like every day, it was a bright new day for both Manik and Nandini. Birds were chirping outside, sun shining and spreading its glow. Cars were honking outside on the road, and people starting for their daily chores.

As per the daily routine, Manik and Nandini got ready for their work in their respective houses and started for their individual work. It was a busy Monday which one doesn't wish for coming after every sunday. Like every other working person, Manik and Nandini were being lazy in doing their works, unknown to the fact that something exciting will happen.


In Malhotra industries,

Manik, Cabir and Mukti were in Manik's cabin discussing about their O2 contract. Mukti was trying hard to convince Manik for joining them to have a look of the snaps of the photoshoot pictures. Today is was damn difficult for Mukti to convince her ever-so-loving brother cum friend as Manik was hell bent to not go.

Was it really his wish or a plan of destiny?


Mukti was giving her convincing speech when she was stopped in the mid-way by the ring of her phone. It was Nandini's call. She talked to her and soon hung the call.

By the look on her face one could say that she was in some kind of dilema. Out of curiosity Cabir asked her what is it.



Mukti replied, "Woh Nandini was calling me go join her for the sample selection of the dress' clothes as the designs are ready and they need to start soon as per our desire. But the thing is that we are going to select our album's cover picture. Aur Navya bhi nahi hain uske saath janey ke liye."


Cabir nodded understanding when a wicked idea clicked his mind. Cabir asked Manik wether he would join him and Mukti to which he nodded in disapproval.



Cabir smirked and said, "Well, meri choti sis ka itna request karne k baad bhi jab tuney nahi mana toh punishment milni chahiye"

Knowing what Cabir meant, Mukti smiled whereas Manik cringed his brows due to confusion.


Cabir continued, "Tujhey Nandini ko sample dekhne k liye lejana hoga aur tu hamey na nahi keh saakta. Bas"

Without waiting for a second, and letting Manik speak, the evil bro-sis got up to leave. Even after listening manik's call and shouts, they were ignorant and left the office.



Manik POV


Having no other choice, I started winding up all my works. As we were working on our albums, I had kept my work pressures low so I didn't have any meeting today.

I felt angry on Mukti and Cabir for doing this to me but their was a sudden yet unknown feelings peeing in my heart. A day with Nandini. ALONE. Maybe that was the reason. But that also meant facing her after yesterday's incident. I did feel a little nervous, but chose to ignore as I can never afford to show anyone my soft side. For every outsider, I am the MONTER MANIK MALHOTRA.

But was Nandini, the cute lil doll of our college really an outsider?

It was not for the first time that I'll be driving with her alone for the first time. Many a times I had lifted her or dropped her home on Mukti's request. And at that time, we were not like this, like a stranger. We were quite freindly. Yeah, it will be lieing if I say I was too freindly with her, because most of the time it was her who used to put efforts for us to be freinds. I kind of liked her bubly, chirpy, cute antics, and her helpless nature, which made it more easy for me to get along with her.


I do miss those days of our sweet-sour friendship but now, things are not the same. I am afraid to trust anyone, any woman. When I say ANYONE, it means NO ONE except for Mukti. Alya, thegirl whom I trusted so much broke my trust and left me all shattered. Its true I never loved her, but i trusted her and my trust matters a lot to me.



I was busy in my thoughts when i had readed Nandini's office covering the half an hour drive from my office. I parked my car and walked in the towards her small cabin, which she had been given after being an assitant designer of her boss. Indeed she was a talented and a very good designer.


When I reached, I pushed the door of the cabin of her cabin when I saw her with abhimanyu, sitting and having a sibling conversation.

Yes, Abhimanyu Murthy and Nandini Murthy are siblings, twins. But they prefered to stay as friends which made build an adorable Sibling bond.


I thought of entering her cabin but stopped at my place to hear Nandini's reply to Abhimanyu's questions. Abhimanyu had asked her to shift back in their mansion in Mumbai. They belong to a quite rich family. Her father has a textile company in Delhi. They are pampered kids but not spoiled brats. They has a big mansion where now only Abhimayu stays as Nandini had decided to move in with Navya after their college had ended.


Abhimanyu was requesting her to come back as he misses her lil sister in the big mansion.


I curiously waited for Nandini to reply. I heard her saying, "Bhai. Tumhe pata hain what my answer will be. Then why are you even asking me? Maine woh ghar isliye chor ke nahi ayi kyunki mujhe phirse wapas jana hain. Its not that i don't miss you. That mansion has held many of our precious memories. If you want I can visit there quite often, but i can't move in. Mujhe kuch karna hain. Khud ka ghar kharidna hain. Khudke badolat par kuch karna hain. Woh ghar zaroor humara hain, lekin mujhe apne mehenat se ek gharchahiye. CHota bhi ho tabbhi woh mera khud ka ghar hoga. Tumhe pata hain na Abhi, mujhe khudka fashion house banana hain. Yeh mera dream hain. Papa chahe toh abbhi mujhe ek fashion house banade lekin woh papa k help se hoga. I want to be independent. Its not that I am not unknown to the struggle and hurdles I've to face. But trust me, I want to taste every bit of struggle. Kyunki struggle karne k baad jab mera sapne pure hoge, that happiness, I won't be able to express in words. So please bhai, aise phirse mat bola karo. I feel bad"


I was quite surprised to hear what Nandini said. Everyone wants success just like a cotton candy, without any struggling. But Nandini? She wants to struggle. I know her father is more than ready to fulfill her dreams, but here she is, wanting to have her own house, her own fashion house and not bought and made by her father's money. Her few words made me realise that the Nandini which I had been seeing during our college time, and the Nandini in front me has not changed at all. Infact her aspirations, the dreams, her determination and confidence had become more strong. I felt like yes, maybe I should stop judging her and try to trust her. And thats when I decided that this time, I would try to be freindly with her. I will bring back the lost not so friendly but friendly bond.


I smiled looking at the gesture of Abhimanyu, giving a protective kiss filled with pure love, on Nandini's temple.


I was so much occupied with my thought process that I didn't realise when my legs started moving, as if having mind of their own. I reached near the chair where Nandini was siting and was busy staring at her glowing face.

I was so busy in staring at her, I was so much surprised by her thoughts that I didn't even realise the brother sister duo staring back at me for the reason of my sudden appearance.

My trance was broken when Abhimanyu snapped his fingures in front of me and I saw Nandini looking at me with the ever-beautiful smile on her face.

Seeing her smiling, I couldn't hold back my smile and so my lip curved into a small smile.

Distracting myself from all this I said looking at Nandini, ''Mukti has sent me to take you to the store for selecting samples of dress materials. So I came to pick you up and accompany you. I think its already let so we should get going''

Without waiting for any response, I turned back and walked out of the office to my get sitted in my car. I know that was rude, but my own behaviour was so different. I am confused, surprised and I need a break from all these mess.

SCROLL DOWN FOR NEXT PART

Chapter 11 B


I was sitting in my car when Nandini came and got sitted in the seat beside the driver's.

I heard her saying, ''Well that was rude!''

And I know what she was talking about. I felt annoyed with my behaviour and unknowingly a ''Sorry'' came out of my lips like a soft whisper. From the look on her face anyone could have said that she was surprised, just like I was surprised with my own behaviour.

Shooing away all the thoughts I started driving.I thought after the awkward and the not-so-comfortable happenings, the drive would be silent. But like always, this crazy girl has to prove me wrong.

The whole ride she was talking and talking and only talking. ''Manik this...Manik that...blah blah''. God...doesn't her mouth hurt?

''Nandini...tum itna baat karke thak nahi jatey? Itni choti si toh hain...itna energy ata kaha se hain.'' I chuckled seeing her pouting after listening to my words.

'' Manik...how mean'' She saud showing fake anger.

''Manik...you know what you've become more boring than you were in college.''

I frowned hearing her but the expression on her face made me smile soon.

Soon we reached tha store and we got down of the car after parking it. We went inside the store and everyone passed a pleasant smile to us. Looked like they know us. I keot my thoughts aside and stood by Nandini's side, who was telling the workers to get the desired samples.

It was her who had being doing everything. Choosing yhe samples, the colour combination, the dress materials. I was just standing there giving her company and looking at sincerity and seriousness while doing her job.

Soon she had finished with her work. After gathering all the samples, we walked out of the store and went towards the car.

When I was unlocking the doors of the car, I found Nandini not there. For a moment I panicked but then I saw her still standing at the entrance of the store. I went towards her and asked her what she was still doing there.


''Manik its ok. Tumhe kam hoga. Tum jao. I'll take a cab.And thanks for joining me here.''

I smiled listening to what she said as it was clear in her voice that I wasn't interested at all in these sample choosing. But I got pissed too for denying me for dropping her back.

''Listen Nandini, I got you here so its my responsibility to drop you back safely. Aur agar Mukti ko pata chala na toh woh mujh par bohat chillayegi.''

''So you joined me only for Mukti?'' I heared Nandini's voice which didn't had the same glint of joy.


Being a confused soul, I replied confusingly, '' Ha...aur kis liye. Accha ab chalo. Get in the car fast.''

The ride back to Nandini's office was not the same. I saw Nandini sitting quietly by my side with her head lowered. I felt uneasy seeing her like that. Maybe her mood was off because of my sarcastic words.

So to lift her mood, I spoke up with a cheering voice, ''Kya hua? Itna chup chap? Aneke time toh itna bak bak. Ab kya hua?''

''Nahi kuch bhi toh nahi. Woh tum mere non stop baton se gussa ho rahe thein toh bas...'' She said with a cute pouty face and I couldn't control my laughter seeing her innocence.

''Oh god Nandu...you're still the same. Main gussa nahi hua. Infact I'm habituated with your non stop chapar chapar. God...you're still so cute''

I saw Nandini looking at me with a million dollar smile on her face. The glow on her face made it evident that she is too much happy. I got confused so I asked her what happened.

''You called me Nandu''. Her voice was soft but had love and purity filled in it. Her vouce felt so melodious and soothing to my ears. But then, reality funally strucked me.

Did I really call her Nandu? God. Yes. But it felt so good to call her by her nick name after so many years. This girl is aurely getying on my nerves. Soon she will deive me crazy.

To avoid those weird looks and curious appeals, shrugging my shoulders I replied,''Haan. Kyun kya hua? I've called you by this name many times. Do you have any problem if I call you by that name.?''

In response, she nodded her head in denial.

The ride was a bit calm and quiet once again when I heard Nandini's scream. I panicked and stopped the car by the side of the road with a jerk.

''Nandinu kya hua? Are you all right? '' Tension was clear in my voice. But her reply made me angry.

Ahe showed me her teeth and in a babyish voice..''Manik...my favourite ice cream parlour. Chalo na lets have an ice cream.''

''Nandini are you out of your mind? Tumne ice cream khane k liye chilaya? You scared the shit out of me?''

Really? But why? Why was I so concerned about her? Forget. now I need to handle this stubborn head

She was pleading so cutely, her cute antics, the puppy face, I wanted to accept my defeat, but the weather is nkt appropriate for having ice cream and she might fall sick. So I strictly denied her.

My continuous denials made no difference but she behaved more and more like a stubborn child craving for a candy. Finally, after understanding that there is no way convincing me, she plastered an agry look on her face.

With her arms crossed over her chest she annoyingly said,''Okay fine. Tumhe nahi le jana hain toh mat jao. Main khud chali jaungi. Aur main offuce bhi akele ja sakti hu. You go back and don't worry I won't tell Mukti''

Saying this she was going fg8 o open the door but how can I let her go all alone by her self. Yes I did feel protective about her, I knew her from so long and she was luke a good friend to me.

I grabbed her wrist and pulled her by my side, stopping her from going. I sighed and accepting my defeat I said, ''Okay fine. You stay here and I'll get you you favourite ice cream''

Well yes I know her favourite ice cream flavour as its not the first time she has craved for ice cream like this in front of me. She did all these kind of things befire too and somewhere down the line I liked her these crazy cute antics too. And somehow I was also feeling confident about trusting her as her and Abhi's conversation made me feel that she has not changed at all. She's the same old Nandini whom I knew from long back.

Giving her smiling face a smile, I got down from my car. I went upto the ice cream parlour and orders her favorite flavor tutti- fruity ice cream.

I went back to her he side and gave her the ice cream tub. Without wasting a second, she grabbed it and opened it. She always makes me surprise. I wonder how can just a ice cream make her this much happy. This girl never needed any precious gifts to impress her. A small candy can also fill her heart with joy.


I got sitted on the driving seat and ignited the engine of my car. I was driving and stealing glance of Nandini who didn't bother to budge for a while. She was busy enjoying her ice cream, having it with her fingers. She looked so cute.

While I was looking at her, She looked back at me. She offered me her ice cream but I denied. She nodded her head and again got busy with her ice cream. She was eating like a kid. A kid who loves to lick the ice cream from rhe empty tub, not being satisfied with the tub full of ice cream. A kid, who not only makes herself eat but also feed her chubby cheeks, tiny nose, and corner of her lips.

She looked so adorable. It was hard to control my laughter seeing her like this. Not being able to control, I spoke up,''Bas karo Nandini. Stop licking it. Khatam hogaya ice cream''

Her face clearly told me that she was not happy with the information I gave her. She was not happy with the fact that her uce cream got finished. She frowned but giving her empty tub a look she sighed realizing that what I said was right.


She kept the tub in her bag and sat quietly. This was another habit of her which made me look uoto her. She never threw any packets or anything on the road. She always kept them with her and later disposed them in a dustbin. All these things of her reminded me of Cabir's worda and I realised that Nandini Murthy is definitely not like other girls.


We reached in front of Fantista. She was ready to move out of my car only to get stopped by my voice. She looked back at me and raise her brows asking me the reason to stop her. Without any hesitation I moved close to her. I could feel her breath getting faster with our proximity but it didn't bug me. I raised my hands close to her lips. I could see her lips shivering and eues closing. I placed my thumb on her lips and wipe out the ice cream it had on it.


When my fingure touched her lips, I felt a shiver running down my spine. I could feel the heat radiating from out bodies. I experienced an unknown and sudden feeling which I had never felt before. Though it was new buy it felt going.

Throwing away all my thoughts, I whispered softly near her lips, ''Ice cream bhi theek se khana nahi ata h...ghosh your still a kid''
I finished my words and moved back with a smile on my face to have a proper look of her.

I could she her eyes opened but looking every where but not at my direction. Her cheeks had turned into a darkest shade of red colour. Without staying in my car any longer, she jumped out of the car, murmuring a thank you and bye to me.

I ruffled my hair and smiled with astonishment after analyzing the auddwn change in my behaviour. Surely this girl was definitely getting on my nerves. She will soon drive me as crazy as her.

Without messing with my brain anymore, I drove back to my office to dive into the pool of wirks so that I get distracted from her.
