Chapter 2A
And...that's how we met!
"Nandu plzzz, plz, plz, pretty plzzz" Navya , my annoying little sister whined for the nth time. I rolled my eyes at her.
"Navya. We're leaving for Manali in 3 hrs. How can you even think of going for some concert right now?" I asked her exasperated.
"First of all, It is not some' concert. It is THE concert . There no way that I'm gonna miss that. It's just for an hour so nothing to worry about. Besides mom is never gonna let me go alone, so you have to come with me. She trusts u, you know." She said as a matter of fact.
I stared at the ridiculous being that was my sister. She is not the one for subtleties so I got straight to the matter. "Okay. You don't get my point. I. don't. wanna. Come." I said making my words clear.
There was silence in the room for 2 seconds.
" okay" She said in a low voice, her shoulder's drooping. Uh ho here we go again. I heard some sniffing sounds. " you know... I thought you would come...we're besties after all. But you don't want to ..it's okay. I understand"
I heaved a huge sigh. Damn it. This girl surely has me wrapped around her little finger. "Fine!" I said giving up. " I'll come"
" Really. Thank u thank u sooo much, nandu. You are the best sister ever." She said hugging me.
"yeah yeah. I'm the easiest push over ever." I said slightly smiling at her eccentric behavoiur.
" Oh my god. I'm going to see THE MANIK MALHOTRA. Ahhh" I shut my ears from her high pitched shrieks.
Oh god . what have I signed up for?!
...
Manik Malhotra. This name has quite simply made my life hell in the past half an hour. Navya took it up on herself to make me realize that this guy was god's gift to the mankind. And I simply couldn't grasp the concept. So here I was irritated to my limits in the middle of hundreds of Manik maniacs. Bless my soul!
Suddenly a car brushed past me almost knocking me down. I regained my balance and glared at the driver but Navya had already rushed past me to give him a piece her mind. I kind felt sorry for the poor guy.
I was watching my sis threatening the guy when I saw a huge black limo stopped a few feet in front of me. To my horror I saw a large crowd of people running towards it like a pack of hungry wolves and I was stuck right in the middle. I don't know what happened next I was pushed, pulled, crushed and somehow I ended up pressed to the side of the car which hit me before. I looked around for a way out but I found none. So I followed my instincts of preservation and tried to open the door. To my luck it was open. I got in and took in a deep breath. Dear god. It sure felt good to breath. My moment of peace was disturbed by the ring of my mobile.
"Nandini. Where are u? you have to see him. I got an autograph. Can u believe it? Oh my god. I can't believe it myself. I was soo.."
"Navya" I said trying to stop her blabbering.
".. And he's just about to perform. Where are you anyway?" She finally paused for a moment so I could reply.
" I'm outside. I'm not coming in. Meet me when you are done."
"yeah. Whatever. You sure are a killjoy." The all too wise Navya said.
" gee. Thanks" I said sarcastically and cut the call.
Finally some peace. God! I sure am tired. I lied down and shut my eyes. I deserve five minutes of rest. No Navya, no concert, and definitely no Manik Malhotra.
...
Everything was hazy in my sleepy mind, I dreamed of travelling in a car and going somewhere far far away. I was jerked awake when I hit my head on the door handle while I almost rolled off the seat. I opened my eyes to unfamiliar surroundings. I was inside a car indeed. I got up and turned to see a guy staring at me. Holy cow! I was kidnapped.
