Manik greeted everyone and everyone told him that they are here for the pool party. Manik denied for that bt they cribbed making Manik to agree to him.

They had some snacks n then went to change for swimming. By the time everyone came to pool Manik was already swimming trying to let out all his feelings

Others dived in and then waited for him. Manik stopped swimming and came to them. They talked for sometime and dcd to play some game. They were playing than in the middle aaliya noticed a tattoo on his right shoulder. So she asked

Aa-yeh tattoo

And that's wen all noticed a tattoo on his shoulder which had Nandini's name engraved. They touched the tattoo and asked

C-yeh tune banaya

Mu-kab

D-its beautiful

Manik hearing their question remembered the tattoo incident. Without saying anything he came out of the pool and left in his room.

He came under the shower and started taking a bath recalling the tattoo incident which was not just an incident bt something that chngd his life

Manik and Nandini had become good friends according to Nandini .bt Manik was deeply in love with her and he knew that.

It was 11 of Feb wen Manik visited Nandini at her hospital. Nandini was free as she had no patients. Manik sat comfortably infront of Nandini and Nandini asked

Nan-hey wats up

Manik was being a lil nervous bt than said gathering lots of courage.

Ma-actually mera ek business friend hai..... aur parsu valentines hai.... toh he has kept a party for that

Nan(calmly)-okay

Ma-and entry is in couples.....Mei aur kisi ko janta nhi ho.....so can you come with me

Nandini looked at him with confusion with a smirk hiding from him and said pulling his leg

Nan-ohh so tum muje isliye le jaa rhe ho coz you have no other partner.

Ma(freaked)-no I .........mean Mei tumhe....... le jana .........chahta ho

Seeing him stammering so badly Nandini couldn't control his laughter and started laughing badly making Manik fall her all the more and than she said after composing herself.

Nan-ohhh God Manik look at you

And again started laughing while Manik realised that she pulled his leg so he made a cute pout while Nandini said

Nan-Mei aa toh jao bt there is a problem

Manik immediately replied

Ma-kya

Nan-mere pas Valentine's k liye. Iss party k liye proper dress nhi hai how will I join you

Ma-bas inti si baat....lets go shopping I will help you buying an outfit

Nan-are you sure

Nan-okay

Ma-abhi coffee peene chalogi

Nan-sorry have work

Ma-no problem aaj coffee nhi toh kaal dinner kr Lena sath Mei.

And without waiting for her reply he left her cabin while Nandini blushed at his haq jatana feeling.

Next day late afternoon Manik came at hospital and called up Nandini who was gathering her stuffs to leave the hospital

Nan-hello

Ma-come out I m waiting in the parking.

Nan-Manik tum .....

Ma-ssshh jldi aajao I m waiting

And he ended the call . Nandini came out after her leaving formalities and came to parking. She sat beside Manik in the car and started saying

Nan-kya hai Manik.....aise koi krta hai

Manik placed his finger on her lips and said

Ma-sshhhh..... seat belt bando we are leaving......

He started the car and Nandini wore her belt n they left towards a mall. Manik parked his car in one of the most famous and expensive malls of Sydney while looking at that mall Nandini tried to say something bt Manik stopped her and both got down from the car.

Entering the mall. Manik took her to one of the famous designers of Sydney. Nandini entered with him and Manik asked for the best gowns for Valentine's Available with them . They started showing them gowns bt Manik was not liking any while Nandini was tired with his rejection for everything over there. Not able to select anything they came out and felt hungry.

Manik had dcd to take her for dinner at a special place so he quickly took her there. He had already booked the table and also ordered the food and Nandini was quiet impressed with his arrangements.

They ate food with lots of fun n gossips. Ending the day Manik dropped Nandini at her place and unwillingly left from there.

Next afternoon Nandini was busy in her work wen she received a parcel. On getting time she opened that n found a very pretty red gown with note that read

Finally got a dress that could match your beauty. Whr this for tmrws party n increase the worth of this gown. I will come to pick you up around 9 till then bye

Manik

Nandini blushed at the note and kept that safely. She than inhaled the dress and felt manik's fragrance in it. She was feeling happy and on top of the world bt was unknown to the feelings she have for Manik.

The rest of the day was normal. Next day was Valentine's Day. The whole city witness couples celebrating n proposing each other. Even in hospital everyone whr having a beautiful smile on their faces.

Nandini was also dancing in her heart with the celebration around and was thinking that how must these feelings felt.

She worked bt left from hospital an hour early than her usual working hours. She came home and took bath and was getting ready. She was kneely checking herself. Taking lots of time. This was the first time wen she took so long to get herself ready.

Around 9 she heard the honk of car n came to her window and saw Manik Cmg out from his car. He looked up and saw her bt couldn't see her clearly . He waved his hand n Nandini too waved back. Manik than showed her his watch saying that they will get late while Nandini showed her 2 fingers saying 2 mins

She came back infront of the mirror glancing at herself for once took her clutch n got down closing the lights . Wen she reached near the door she slowed down her pace and breathes saying herself to calm down n not to look stupid infront of Manik.

Relaxing herself Nandini came out and like a sophisticated girl locked her door n came towards Manik. Here seeing her in that gown Manik's all senses had gone numb n he dint realise wen she came and stood in front of him.

Nandini's attire

Nandini too got lost in his eyes . And felt something different and beautiful in his eyes. There eye lock got broken wen unknowingly Nandini's hand touched manik's. looking everywhere bt each other both were trying to get the air normal.

Again their eyes met and Manik this time took her hand n kissed on her knuckles making Nandini go all red like a tomato.

Ma-you look stunning

Nandini blushed more and than softly whispered

Nan-thanks

Breaking the awkwardness Manik said opening the passenger seat door for her

Ma-shall we

Nandini quietly came n sat in the car. Manik closed the door and came on his seat and they left from there. The drive was silent all the way. Parking the car at the venue manan came out.

Nandini came beside Manik and Manik offered his elbow to her n Nandini entwined her with his . They walked at the entrance n Manik showed the security his invitation card and they let them in.

As the enterd in they saw lots of couples over there, the whole decorations was of red and white , at a side an orchestra was arranged and they were playing a beautiful melody, few ppl drinking n having fun n at one side arrangement were done that were hidden from everyone.

Manik met the person who have organised the party n Nandini too met with him . He asked Manik as Nandini to be his gf bt he denied and said that she was his friend cum partner. Nandini felt bad coz he said like that bt she couldn't argue with him on that.

They came away from the crowd n were having fun in the party. Manik asked Nandini if she wants drinks or something on which Nandini denied saying that she doesn't drink .

Manik got juice for her n a drink for himself and were enjoying the party. After a long time a couple entered in from a different route and announced themselves to be the host of the games in the party. All hooted for them n they announced all the intrested couples to join the area which is covered .

Many ppl volunteered for it while Manik and Nandini were just enjoying the games by looking at it .

They sat on an empty table over there n were enjoying the party. Soon the games started and there were many game like bursting the balloons by sitting on the partners lap, carrying your females who will be carrying water in their hands n putting in the container n whoever's water level will be more they will win. Than a game to check partners co-ordination with each other, at last 3 couples were left and they were asked to propose their partners the same way they proposed them for the first time .

Nandini was enjoying all this n wen they boys were proposing their girls she felt an urge to be proposed while Manik was just looking at Nandini. Her every expression n comments were kneely noticed by Manik.

Only one last thing was left in the party and that was for all the couples present there. The host announced

Host-this is the last thing in the party for all the boys and girls present here. This is a tattoo  artist (pointing at a men sitting on one side of the hall ready with his equipments) and here he is present to draw a tattoo on your body bt only your partners name. So all the love birds around hop on n engrave the name of your love on your body for forever

The whole hall went silent while the host waited for any come back bt nobody stood up so he again said

Host-well this is an opportunity to say to your lover that you love him/ her. Or as a promise that you will never leave her/him coz these tattoos are permanent they won't go from your body until you die.

Still the whole hall was in dead silence. Manik looked at Nandini who was busy in looking that who will go. At last they heard the host cheering them up

Host-common guys.....don't you all wanna promise each other.

Manik with a smirk stood up from his place removed his coat n kept on his chair n walked towards the artist and all clapped and cheered for him .

Nandini who was still now in her own world suddenly saw Manik there and then she looked at her opposite chair and found it empty that's wen she realised that he has gone to draw a tattoo on his body.

She was trying to understand all the happenings while Manik came and sat in front of the artist. He removed his shirt. And gave his left shoulder to the artist. Nandini first felt bad that whose name he will put bt than chucking all her thoughts she dcd to stop him n was abt to stand up from her place wen she heard the artist asking

Ar-who's name do you want to write

Manik smiled and than said

Ma-NANDINI

All started clapping for him while Nandini went numb on hearing her name on the mike echoing in the entire hall. She sat on her place grasping that Manik is about to engrave her name on his body and unknowingly tears flowed from her eyes unknown of the reason
