'You love her right'..asked Cabir..'Is it so obvious'..'Of course it is!! You should have seen ur face when she was in college...that care and concern when she was asleep and also yesterday...you were taking glances of her.Am I right or am I right!?'...

'You're right..' I said..'you know I was attracted to her the time I saw her. She gives those strong magnetic pull..she gives positive vibes...she's so calm and composed..it gives me a soothing feeling whenever I am with her'..'Does she know!?' he asked and I was in a jiffy to Cabir's this question.

I mean I told her I like her.But I hadn't told her..officially. Before Cabir could ask me again...Mukti came with soup. I woke her up and fed her. Trust me on this..she had lost all her energy in this stupid fever..'You okay na'..I asked her taking her in a side hug...she nodded her head in a 'No' tears formed in her eyes.I was..an unknown feeling of "Oh my Godd!! What's wrong" Mukti asked...
'Aree kya hogaya!! Tell me.' I said wiping her tears. She didn't utter a word..but clinged to me tightly and again due to the high dose of medicine she was feeling drowsy...'Manik I think she has slept enough for the day..Hume use sone nai dena chahiye.Aunty bhi abhi aate honge..we have informed her' said Mukti. I nodded and me and Cabir got to our jobs of distracting her..not once did I leave her side...not once did she leave her grip on me..Her mom came and I had to move aside. We all left..me too..unwantedly..but not before giving her a forehead kiss and ensuring her I was just a call away..

That night I got a call from her..I panicked hearing her sobs.. 'Hello Manikk..*sniff*'..
'Nandini!! What happened Sweetie..why are you crying. Are you okay'.. She was crying!!
'Manik...are.. you..aw..awakee..e!!'..'Don't worry Nandini...just open ur balcony door. I'll be there in a minute okay'.. 'O..ok..!!' She stammered

I reached there and the same time she opened her door and just hugged me tight..I too held her and caressed her hair..' shhuu..What happened dear!?'..'Wo..I..wa..was.. not ..fee...feeling..well.Mom...was..also ..tired na...*sniff* so..I..didn't...wa.. wake..her..up!!Are you..al..also.. tired!?'She asked raising her head abit..'No Nandini..I can never be tired to meet you.Acha now wipe these tears n tell me..kyu ro rahi ho hmm..!! Kya ho raha hai tumhe?'..'Manik can you be with me !?' she asked...'You just have to say sweetheart' I smiled at her. ' Now come..let's try to sleep'.. 'Mujhe neend nai aarahi..' 'Ohh!! Isiliye rona aaraha hai aapko hmm..!?' She pouted..'Toh..wadda u wanna do!?' 'Patanai'..'Hmm...Okay let's see' he said rubbing his hands. 'Let's playy...cards!?' 'No UNO!!'..'Okay..!! I laughed at her. We played and after a while we started to watch a movie in her Ipad.. but due to fever her eyes started burning and she slept.I carefully made her sleep properly and I admired her pale face holding a smile and after a while I left.

Dosti ke naam!! Chaitv 💕
