Malhotra mansion
8pm

They were all sitting in the living room! Even nandini!

The door bell rang!
A very familiar voice was heard by everyone

Manik: veebha?

Veebha runs inside and hugs manik without looking at anyone! The hug was basically like a jump on top of manik!

Nandini although smiled was not okay with it!

Manik was shocked at first then he smiled: tum yaha?

Veebha: i wanted to surprise you!

Manik: tu shaadi pe kyu nehi aya?

Veebha: yaar tujhe kisi or ke saath shaadi karte nehi dekh sakta na..

Nandini was looking at her! Everyone else looked at nandini along with manik!

Manik moves away and comes and side hugs nandini: this is nandini!

Veebha: yeh or nandini? Yeh toh bilkul meri type ki nehi hain

Alya (angry): excuse me?

Veebha: nehi woh manik ko meri type ladki a pasand hain na

Cabir (laughs teasing her): its okay veebha! Stop self obsessing!

She started laughing alone

But it was pretty clear manik's friends or anyone in that room did not like her except manik as she was his friend!

Nandini: hii veebha!

Veebha: hii

Manik: toh kaha reh rahi hain?

Veebha: yaha!

Manik: haan okay! Ek room extra hain! Woh actually hum sab ek saath rehte hain

Veebha: wow nice!

She pulls manik's hands away from nandini: chalo na manik! Bohot baat karni hain!

She takes manik outside to the pool side! Manik walked but he was looking at nandini whose expression completely changed!

After they were gone

Aryaman: what the hell?

Cabir: exactly! She is crazy!

Nandini gives a fake smile to everyone and leaves towards her room!

Navya: lagta hain nandu ko bura laga

Dhruv: ofcourse lagey ga!

Mukti: i would have slapped her if i was in nandini's place!

Scene shifts to nandini's room!

Nandini switched off the light and lied down! She was very very angry on what she did!

Nandini pov: usne jo kiya woh kiya! But manik? What was he doing standing there! What is wrong with him?

Scene shifts to living room!

Manik and veebha came

Manik: kaka veebha ko uski toom dika dijiye

He turns to everyone

Manik: where is nandini

Alya: her room

Mukti: manik yaar tu use kuch bata nehi sakta tha?

Manik: mein kya bolu! She doesnt let anyone else speak! Mein ati hoon!

He goes upstairs to his room!

He turned on the lights and saw nandini was lieing down!

Manik went to the other side of the bed and lied down moving towards nandini!

He hugged her from behind and nandini removed his hand

Manik: nandini!

He again hugged her

Nandini shouts: kya hain manik?

Manik: why are you shouting? Maine kya kiya?

Nandini(loud): ask yourself that!

Manik: nandini please you are being stupid she is just my friend!

Nandini: ofcourse! Mein toh aryaman ko aise hug karti hoo na?

Manik: where did that come from?

Nandini: manik jao yaha se

Manik: if you dont trust me mein kuch nehi kar sakta..

Nandini: its not about trust manik! Its about standing up for me! Usne kya bola suna tumne? Or woh humare ghar mein kya karraha hain

Manik: nandini isme gussa hone ki koi baat nehi hain

Nandini: why is she staying in our house manik?

Manik(angry): excuse me? Where u there? I didnot invite her! Wo khud bola

Nandini: you could have said no!

Manik: nandini kya problem hain?she is my friend

Nandini: manik please! Fab5 bhi tumhare friends he unse toh mujhe koi problem nehi hain na?

Manik: stop being so insecure nandini! And fab5 ki baat! Idk maybe u thought that i wont give u time as i always stay with them isliye you became friends so that u can stay in our hangovers too.....

He stopped when he realized what he said

Nandini: wow manik! Thankyou so much for telling me this..

Manik: nandini noo! Mein gussa hoke.. Nandini i know this is not true..

Nandini gets up and goes out of the room..

Manik: nandinii!! Damn it!

He goes out too...
