Bangalore
Murty Villa

11:00a.m.

The elders we're out to some old friend's house and the younger clan was in their respective rooms getting ready or you can say busy romancing except for Manan and Mukbhi. Mukti was still asleep and Abhimanyu was making phone calls about his and Nandini's leave. Manik was in his room busy with his laptop making presentation and Nandini was sitting near the window in her room.

Nandini's Room
Nandini's POV

My life has changed so much just  in few days. It's rightly said "it doesn't take much time turning tables may it be of your destiny or your deads ". I'm happy, somewhere satisfied. But still I feel I'm a mess. Do I really deserve this much?? Manik... a mere thought of him brings goosebumps to my body and soul. When he touches me, kisses me, teases me, the way he speaks to me, the way he threatens me with his sweet tortures, the way he consoles me like no one.... these feelings I don't know what are these. I just want to be with him all the time. He... he is so good to me. He is understanding, caring, kind, smart. I feel shy to admit but he is handsome like hell. Sharp features, his perfect physique, beautiful hazel brown eyes, a cute smile lingering on his lips. Lucky will be the girl to he his life partner, his soul mate. But why do I feel sad on this mere thought of his marriage. Why does he effects me so much?? Why does my body react to his touches. Two years back I felt disguised when Harshad tried to touch me. But with Manik it's so different.  Do I really deserve him?? He is doing so much for me. He is holding my hand the time when i need someone the most. How easily he can read me and my thoughts... He catches me within fraction of seconds of I lie... what are you doing to me Manik.  You said you don't regret our kiss neither do I Manik.  This feeling I don't know but whatever it is I'm loving it. You are right Manik I over think about everything. See that's what I'm doing right now too. I'm such a fool. You said go with the flow. I have decided that I'll go with the flow. Don't let me fall this time Manik. If i fall this time then May be I'll never be able to rise and shine. Shit it's already past 11. I need to wake Mukti too. She is such a baby. She loves her bhai's attention. I want to laugh on my conditions.  On one side it's me who craves for a brother love and the other side is she who gets it without asking. Chal Nandini jldi se. Mukti ko uthana is not an easy task.
POV Ends.

Manik's Room
Cabir entered his room and saw him engrossed in his work. He was wearing his spectacles. He nodded his head in disbelief.

Cabir- Manik baba vacations pe toh kaam ko bakshdo. (Manik's head shot up when he heard Cabir' s voice). Kya yrr Manik sara tu itna workaholic kyu hai.

Manik- esa nae hai Cabir.  Bs yeh presentation bna raha tha. I can't pressurise dad man. Tu bol kese aana hua?? Kuch kaam tha.

Cabir- ab Kya mey apne yaar se milne tabhi aaskta hu jb mujhe koe kaam ho.... . Hey bhagvaan!!!! Kya time aagya hai... ghoor kalyug hai yeh ghoor kalyug.

Manik- Cabir apna drama bnd kr au bta kyaa hua . (He spoke closing his laptop).

Cabir- it's long time we didn't catchup. Socha thode deer tere pass aajao. Navya ko medicine dekr sula diya mene. So tell me what's going on in your life???

Manik- mere life.... mere life is as usual Cabir. Nothing in specific. Chal toh tere life mey raha hai itna kuch. You are going to be a dad soon. Tu bta kesa feel krraha hai tu...

Cabir- this feeling na yaar is out of the world. Mtlb mey tujhe words mey express nae krskta. Yeh...yeh...yeh na.... Kya bolu samaj he nae aaraha...

Manik- relax!!! Samajhta hu. I mean tere jese toh nae pr chacha bnne ke khusi mujhse bhe jtae nae jaate. (He spoke patting his back).

Cabir- I know you are hiding something Manik so spill the beans. Mey tujhe 2 din se observe krraha hu.

Manik- esa... esa... kuch nae hai Cabir.... sach mey aur tu mujhe chod mere bheen aur apne baby pe dyaan de. They need you the most right now. Abhi tu jaa dekh kahi vo uth na gae ho. She may need something.

Cabir- topic divert krna na koe aapse sikhe Manik baba. Dekh mujhe baat ghummane nae aate. So mey direct point pe aata hu. Bta tera aur Nandu ka Kya chl raha hai???

His this question left Manik bewildered.  Composing himself he spoke.

Manik- chal raha hai mtlb.... we are friends bs aur Kya.. .. aur tu na apna dimag lrana bnd kr smjha.

Cabir- acha toh tu parso uske room mey subha 6 bje Kya krne gya tha. Jha tk mey janta hu na you are not that early type of person also. Tu nae bolege na chal aaj ke he baat lele. Yeh maasi aur chachi ka Kya majra hai??? Dekh jhuut mt boleo.

He knew there was no escape from his mirror image so he spill it all.

Manik- Kya bolu Cabir jb mey khud bhe nae janta. Yeh feelings Kya hai i don't know. I mean I agree ke i really like her. She is such a child at heart.... so innocent. Jo uske sath hua na vo, vo deserve nae krte. She went through the worse in her life Cabir. Her life is full of darkness Cabir. Mey usse hmseha kehta hu ke I'll bring light in her dark world pr mey khud he samajh nae para ke shuruat kha we kru. It pricks my heart to see her. Jb hmsb log aapus mey beth kr hskhel rahe hai pr that soul is all alone fighting with her emotions. Janta hai Cabir she is soo messed up ke we can't even imagine. She needs someone to hold her tight. Someone who can assure her that the person will always be her side no matter what. Mey vo jgah paane ke koshish krraha hu uski life mey. Tujhe pta hai mom aur Abhimanyu ka kehna hai ke I love her. Mujhe nae pta ke what is love. Pr usse mey ese nae dekhskta. I mean thiik hai ke I have some feelings for her. I agree but love?? I really don't know. So all I'm doing is to figure out these feelings. Tu bta Cabir what is love....

Cabir who till now was listening to him calmly spoke.

Cabir- dekh Manik what she is going through hmmese koe bhe nae jaanskta 'cz we have never been through it. But we need to be strong for her. Aur rahi baat love ke toh jb tujhe pyaar hoga na toh tu directly yaa indirectly uske pass rehna chahega. Jis din tere pass reason khatam hojae na us insaan ko describe krne mey May it be in any way, uske care ho yaa phir kuch bhe usdin samajhlena that you are in love. You will find your peace kn that person.  Tu jitna mrzi try krle, you  can't stay away from that person. You will actually find your home Manik. You know Manik when a girl is in love you can see it in her smile but when a boy is in love you can see it in his eyes. Aur tere aankhe yahi kehte hai ke you love her more than anything. Rest I leave it up to you. Think on what I said.  Take your time and figure out your feelings. Aur ab yeh kaam chod aur uth we need to get ready nae toh baad mey sb larkiya hme he bolenge.

Manik- thanks yrr Cabir I really needed it. Chal mey bhe chalta hu Mukti ko uthana hai and that's is not an easy task.

Cabir- ek ghussa👊 marunga agar zada bola toh.  Vese bhe mene yeh sb tere lia nae apni bheen ke lia bola taaki she gets what she deserve. Chal abhi.

Saying this he walked away from Manik's room. Cabir was always like this. The best thing in Cabir's nature was his jolly mood and his calmness. Manik went to Mukti 's room to wake her up. He entered the room and saw Nandini trying to wake Mukti whose head was in Nandini's lap. Nandini was caressing her hair.

Nandini- muku uth na baba. Teyaar bhe hona hai tujhe. Nae toh you late hojaega na. Dekh mujhe bhe toh ready hona hai na. Acha I'll make something for you quickly to eat. Kuch light aur yummy pr abhi uth na baba.

Manik- princess get up... jldi se. Be my good girl.

Hearing Manik's voice, Mukti got up and jumped in his arms.

Mukti-  bhaiiiiii.... (She screamed and Manik twirled her around. He kissed her forehead and asked her to freshen up. She nodded and went away).

Manik- and Ms. Murty aap. Aapko Kya special invitation chahia... (He said sarcastically).

She made a bad face and left muttering 'monster'. He smiled at her complaints and went to his room to get ready.

Nandini hurriedly got ready and went to the kitchen to prepare something for Mukti. She was busy in the kitchen when she heard the noise from the living room indicating that boys we're ready. 

After a few minutes Mukti, Alya and Navya we're present there too.

Navya- aree yeh Nandu kaha reh gae. Jaha tk hm jante hai vo toh hmsb se pehle teyaar hue hoge....

Nandini- mey ready he hu Navya  (she spoke coming from behind. She then came near Mukti and said) muku le mene wrap bnaya hai have it.

Mukti- thank you Nandu di. You are the best. (Saying this she hugged her) Mujhe sachi mey bohot bhuuk lgi thi. Pr aap Kya is apron ko pehenke jaoge.

It was then she noticed that she still had not removed the apron.

Nandini- pagl hai kya.... vo mey remove krna bhuul gae.

She then removed the apron and handed it over to a servant who came with a plate in his hand.

Cabir- vese behna yeh galat baat hai. Tuune sirf is churail ke lia bnaya aur tere bichare bhai ka kya.

She chuckled hearing his complaints.

Nandini- esa bhe hoskta hai Cabir ke mene apne pyaar bhai ke lia na bnaya ho. Mene sb ke lia bnaya hai aur is box mey na yahi hai.

They all took from the servant. Manik was about to take when she stopped him.

Nandini- ahh!!! Manok wait don't take from it. Unsb mey black pepper. U'll catch allergy. Kaka mene mere ek Alag se bhe rakha tha vo leaaea.

The servant gave it to Manik and he thanked him.

Nandini- Chale abhi late horaha hai.

They nodded and moved towards the car munching their respective wrap.

Hola people. How are you.
So the adventure starts. Let's see if Manik finds out that he really loves Nandini or it's just atteaction. The outfit pics I'll add in next chapter. Till then bye and see you soon. Ignore grammatic mistakes.  Incline votes and comments. Good night.

Happy reading 😊😊
