Nandini rang the door bell and waited outside..

Nandini: yehi toh address diya tha dhruv ne..why is he taking so much time to open the door..usi ne bola tha to come now!

The door opened and there stood someone nandini did not want to see at all! Manik malhotra stood their rubbing his eyes!
He opened his eyes and looked at nandini..

Nandini and manik: tum?

Nandini: tum yaha kya karrahe ho?

Manik: oh hello! This is my house?

Nandini: nehii yeh dhruv ka ghar hain..

Nandini rolled her eyes..

Manik: excuse me? Dont show that to me..

Nandini: i am sorry what do u expect?

Nandini looked at manik for awhile..she was fuming with anger and felt like punching him again..her eyes were all red with anger..
Manik on the other hand was staring at her makin the most monsterous face he ever had..

Nandini turned around and left fuming with anger..

Manik: loser..

He closed the door and went inside..

Dhruv came down..

Dhruv: buddy who was it?

Dhruv went outside..

Manik: sorry aur uss nandini ko..never..

Manik went up to his room and got ready..he wore a red tshirt and blue jeans..he then wore a blue floral jacket above..

They left for college soon..

Scene shifts to a classroom-

Nandini enters fuming.. She saw everyone sitting..even fab5..nandini looked at them once and then never again..
She moved forward looking for seats around..

It took manik some about 5 mins to realize that he was staring at her.. Manik shook his head and sat up..

Manik: wth manik..

Cabir: kya?

Manik: no nothing..

Manik looked at nandini.. She looked flawless in that red kurta and black jeans..her hair perfectly sat and her bangs covering her forehead..

Cabir: manik tujhe bata hain..that day nandini saved me..literally..i was talking to mukti about myself..that i am gay and guess who was around?

Manik: who?

Cabir: harshad..nandini was there too..she heard everything i guess and when she saw harshad she atarted shouting his name aloud so we stopped..

Manik: hmm..

Mukti: nice girl..

Manik: i dont think so..

Mukti: manik..look at the good side of peoplee...

Manik: haan haan..tum sab toh yehi bologe..new found love jo change kar diya tum sabko..

Mukti and cabir laughed..

Cabir: mera toh koi new found love nehi hain..

Manik: whatever..

Dhruv: nandini..there is a seat here come!

Nandini looked at them..and then her eyes went straight at manik...

Nandini's pov: marjaungi lekin uske paas nei bethungi..

Manik's pov: oh god! Please not her..

Nandini: no dhruv its okay.. I will stand..

Dhruv: no nandini! Please comee..

Cabir: haan nandini come..

Just then navya entered..

Cabir: wohhhh..yeh dekho kon aya..madhubala jii..

Navya looked at them and then ignored and went towards nandini..

Navya: yo nandini!

Fab5 laughed except dhruv..

Nandini: hii navya..

Navya: kya karrahi ho?

Nandini: seat dhoond rahi hoon navya..

Harshad came inside with two seats..

Navya excited: harshadjii...

Harshad: hello..

Manik: yeh dekho..spot boy..

Harshad looked at manik: yeh dekho..unwanted person..

Manik: we can see that..

The whole class laughed..

Harshad kept te seats..
Navya sat on one and harshad on the other..

Harshad looked at nandini: oops..

Nandini: no its okay..

Mukti: nandini come here!

Raghav sir entered and everyone quietly sat on their chair..

Raghav: nandini why are you standing? Go sit now..

Manik gave a small laugh..
Nandini on seeing no other option went towards that empty chair..

Manik looked at that chair which was just beside him..

Nandini slowly came and kept her bag on the desk and then moved to seat..manik held the chair's handle and pulled it towards him..

Nandini: ouch..

Nandini's leg hit with the chair..she looked at manik with an angry face..

Nandini sat slowly and then bent down rubbing her leg..

Manik gave his smirk and looked infront..

The class was over soon..all students ran outside..

Nandini got a call so she answered the call..manik stood up and stretched his hands...

Fab4 left as manik told them he will join shortly..

When nandini kept the call she looked around to see just herself and manik..

Nandini's pov: aiyappa mere saath hi yeh sab kyu hoti hain..

Nandini stood up with her bag and started moving towards the door..

Manik: hello? Cant you see i am here to talk..

Nandini: tumne kuch bola that i will understand?

Manik moved towards her..

Manik: itna attitude rakhi kaha ho?

Nandini rolled her eyes and them kept going towards the door..

Manik moved towards her with fast steps and stood behind her holding the door so that nandjni could not open it..

Nandini: manik what is your problem?

Nandini turned around and looked at him..her back pinned to the door..

Manik: mein jab baat karraha hoon toh suno..

Nandini: kya baat karna hain? Bolo

Manik: woh i am..i am...

Nandini: sorry?

Manik look stunned at her..he was so surprised..this was the first time..first time someone could predict what he was going to say..first time someone had the courage to talk to him upfront other then his friends..

Nandini: haan bolo?

Manik: haan woh..so..

Nandini: rehne do manik malhotra! Tumse nehi hoga..

Manik went furious now..

Manik: what do u think you are? Haan? Jhasi ki rani ho? Kya samajhti ho khudko?

Nandini: oh please..look who is saying that..

Manik: can u never talk to me in a good tone?

Nandini: monster manik is saying that?

Manik eyes and ears were all red eith anger..

Manik: forget it..

Manik pulled the door open and the next thing that happened shocked both of them to the core..

Both their eyes widened..they stood still.. Their lips touched..

Manik went back immediately with his eyes still wide open...

Nandini looked ag him..both of then still..

Nandini moved back and hit herself with the door..she covered her mouth with her hand and ran outside...

Manik: wth just happened..did we just...oh my god! Ewww! Disgustingg.. Omg manik! What is wrong with you..how could youu!! Chiii...

Manik opened the door and rushed out of the room..
