A small Time skip... wednesday evening...

*Wednesday... it came too soon* according nandu...

She was now getting 'ready' to meet manik as instructed by her mother dearest...

The last three days were spent working in murthy industries... she had a very important meeting this morning... it was a whole 2 hour meeting which ended in an hour all thanks to her mom dearest...

She sighed before sitting in front of the mirror as her mother approached her with her very own torture kit... make up...

After an hour...

Nandu was all ready to meet Mr. Malhotra... she wore a light grey colour dress... it looked simple at the same time beautiful... her mother curled her hair and braided it a little on the front...

She went towards her car running her hand on its roof before smiling and sitting in it...

*her love for cars has its own history...*

She drove to where manik messaged her this morning...

............................................................................................................................................................................

The Food world restaurant...

She arrived their approximately 30 minutes later... she gave the key to the valet...

She went inside as the person opened the door for her... she gave him a small smile before letting her eyes roam to find the person she came here for...

As soon as manik saw nandu he stood up and waved at her a little, gaining her attention... nandu gave him a smile as she walked towards him...

Except for the fact that nandu didnt notice, manik was looking hot and handsome in his attire consisting of a black shirt and a black pant...

Nandu was about to pull her chair when manik held her hand...

Manik: let me... he said coming to her side and pulling the chair for her...

*second time...*

Nandu thought as she looked at her hand before shaking her thoughts away... she never allowed anyone to touch her... then why was he so comfortably able to touch her... even if it was just her hand...

She smiled at him before sitting...

Nandu: So, hi again i guess... she said starting the convo...

Manik smiled at her while handing her the menu...

Manik: so, what rules do you want to have... he said making her look at him... chocolate eyes met black ones... but unfortunately nothing sparked between them as they returned to the convo...

Nandu: first of all, i dont want divorce... she said and shushed manik who was about to speak...

Second, we have to stay true to eachother...

Third, i want a seperate room, if its ok with you... she said while manik nodded his head at her...

Manik: i will make sure to do those but since you want to stay here for 3 months we need to share a room... dont want the others to find out do we... he said while nandu didnt know what to do... he was indeed right... until they move to new york they need to stay together... so she nodded her head hesitantly...

Seeing her hesitation made manik sigh...

Manik: i am not that kind of guy... i will never approach you... i could sleep on the couch you know... he said... while nandu shook her head...

*just because of them you shouldnt let it hinder your future... thinking everyone in the world is like them...*

She scolded herself...

Nandu: no need... its ok... she said... while they both ordered their dinner...

Manik: so whats your favourite colour... he asked getting bored...

Nandu: well, black, white and pink... what about you... she questioned him in turn...

Manik: hmmm... red i guess... he said while nandu nodded...

Nandu: what else do you do other than business... she asked casually...

Manik: hmmm, i sing... i mean i along with my friends formed a band when we were in our college days... he said while nandu just listened to him being surprised to find that he could sing...

*maybe one day, i can hear him sing actually... but hope he is not like that monkey singhania...*

She thought frowning before talking with manik again...

Somewhere in london...

Sid: ah-chu... he sneezed...

Maddy: seems like someone is thinking about you... he said making sid smile...

Sid: arre maddy people always think about every day... what can i do... i am soo handsome... must be one of my crazy fans... he said winking at him who rolled his eyes at him mockingly...

If only he knew... he would have never opened his mouth...

............................................................................................................................................................................

Manik: so, you are a music producer ha... what a coincidence... maybe we could work together in the future... he said smiling while nandu too smiled at him...

Nandu: yeah of course... *only if you meet my expectations...* she silently voiced out the last line in her heart...

They both ate while talking about their love... i meant business...

Soon, the dinner came to an end with manik escorting her to her car and opening the door for her...

He was about to go when she stopped him...

Nandu: manik...

Manik: hmmm... he said turning back...

Nandu: i can trust you right... she asked... talking to him made her comfortable... but at the same time her fear slowly creeped into her heart... what if history repeats itself...

She cant handle all that once again... because she knew this time she would die if that happened again...

Manik held her hand which was on the handle...

Manik: i dont usually promise people... but this one i will make sure to keep it till death... he said squeezing her small hand in his large one...

He was surprisingly comfortable with her... maybe they could be friends... but more than that wasnt possible... he could clearly see if it was a romantic or a platonic relation... and this, as he said, would fall in the latter one...

He smiled at her before letting her hand go... she smiled back and sat in her car... she waved one last time before driving away...

Manik too drove away from there to his home... he drove slowly as he knew what was waiting for him at him home...

One word... Interrogation...
