We reached Mangalore and our driver was waiting for us and we reached home in 30 minutes. I ran as soon as we parked and hugged Amma Appa tightly as they were waiting for us at the door itself. Tears formed in my eyes seeing them after a long time. I talk to them everyday but seeing them directly in front of my eyes made me a little emotional. I touched Ams feet hugged Rishab bhaiya and ran to their room with Mukti to meet Preethi Bhabhi. We were talking to her when Amma came to their room and asked us to freshen up as it was almost dinner time and Preethi Bhabhi had to eat on time.

Me and Mukti were staying in my room. We changed into comfortable Pj's and came down for dinner. After a year I was eating home food... not that I don't like food there in Mumbai but being a typical South Indian I just loved eating South Indian food because it made me feel like home. Mom used to try making South Indian food for me taking help from Amma but the food she made was exceptional.

Me and Mukti filled our tummy more than its capacity and Rishab bhai was teasing us to no extent.

"Bhabhi I will kill him..." I said sitting on the couch too lazy to even move and she started laughing.

"Amma please do something.." I complained but she was not there... wait where did she go ? she was here just a while back... then I saw her coming talking on phone

"haan beta... they reached long back... they had their dinner... did you eat ? accha okay... all the best for tomorrow beta... bye.. good night... love you more..."

Wait with whom was she talking... of fish...! I forgot to call Manik... I think he called her... wait where is my phone ? manik is going to kill me for this...

"beta you both didn't call Manik... he was so worried for you ..." Amma informed. Me and Mukti exchanged glances as we knew what will happen when we will call him now.

"chalo you both go and take rest... you have not been sleeping properly because of exams... go take proper rest for 2 days then everything will be fine..." Amma said and we both nodded and left to my room for sleeping. But before that we had an important task.

Cool the Volcano

I called Mom first and informed her that we reached safely and I also said sorry for not calling immediately when we reached.

"its okay beta... Shalini called and informed me... you just take rest... you were stressing a lot during exams..." she said lovingly and I smiled at her response. I ended the call and looked at Mukti who was giving me a tensed look and I knew what it meant...

She showed me her phone which was showing 'Bhai Calling'

I accepted the call and kept it on speaker

"where the hell are you both ??? are you crazy ??? how could you forget to call me and tell that you reached safely ?? you know how much I was scared and what kind of weird thoughts I was getting ??? where is the other idiot ??? why isn't she picking up my calls ??? speak up dammit...!!!" he was shouting on the top of his voice

I took a deep breath and said

"Manik.. first please calm down..."

"calm down... my foot..!" he roared like a lion

"baby please.... Sorry na..." I said in a sweet tone and he sighed... he was trying to control his anger... I ended the call immediately and called him on face time and Mukti left the room asking me to calm him down ASAP as she was sleepy.

He was looking everywhere except at me

"manik... look at me na baba..." I said in a cute tone and he closed his eyes to calm himself

"sorryyyyy..." I said holding my ears and gave a flying kiss. He was trying his best not to smile and I did a small dance of victory... volcano was calm.. phew

"manik..." I called him again and he looked at me... finally...

"I got scared okay when you both were not taking my calls..." he said in a low voice and I nodded my head in a No

"see what happened was when we came home it was almost dinner time and after seeing my favourite food after so long I just couldn't resist... so we just freshened up and attacked on the food. In this hurry we forgot to call you... see it was not intentional... it just happened..." I explained him and he gave me a pointed look

"what" I didn't understand why he was giving me those looks

"just unbelievable... you forgot to call me because you saw your favourite food..." he said gritting his teeth and I flashed a 32 teeth smile

"yes... you know mom prepared my favourite daal, rasam and bitter guard curry along with mango pickle, papad and curd rice... I was just drooling by the looks of it and she even prepared payasm for me... so you see it's a natural trait that Nandini Murthy gets irresistible invitations from food and the whole world fades away... so you just slipped out of my mind..." I was blabbering without looking at his face but when I looked at him he was looking like a Monster ready to gulp me down all of me at once.

"what do I do with you ??" he said looking up and I smiled

"love me take care of me and feed me on time babyyyyy..." I said with a naughty smile and he threw a glare at me

"just because im not there beside you to punish you, you cant do all this to irritate me because trust me once im there you will be punished Hard" he said with so much confidence that I had goose bumps all over and I gulped hard. I knew what exactly "punishment" meant in Manik's dictionary. I had to divert him from all this

"manik how is the preparation going for tomorrow ??" I asked him

"fine divert it now but no one will be able to save you once im there" he said and I rolled my eyes

"fine do whatever you want... now answer my question... prepared well for tomorrow ?" I asked again and he sighed and replied rubbing his face with his other hand

"almost done yaar... but I think im not sure about 2-3 chapters... ill revise them once again" he said showing me his notes

"manik you start studying and then please sleep properly... ill call you tomorrow morning okay sweety ??" I said with a smile and he frowned at the last word

"nandu please stop calling me with those cheesy names.. I hate it... seriously sweety ?? eww" he said making a bad face and I laughed... how much I love irritating him... hahaha

"chalo all the best babuuuu... good night... muuaahhhh..." I gave a flying kiss and he too did the same but a little 'Manik' style... he placed his lips on the screen and I turned red... damn him..!

"2 more days nandu... im missing you so much.." he said with a sad face and I smiled at his cuteness

"aww manik... don't be sad... focus on your exam, then you come here and we will have loads of fun... you know I was dying to go to the waterfalls today.. you remember the one where we went last year??... but then I though we will go together ... so please come fast" I said with a pout and he just nodded his head in a yes

"as you say Madam... okay then ill talk to you tomorrow... bye love you.."

"feelings are mutual Manik.. bye.. good night and all the best" I ended the call without giving him time to speak and put my cell aside and giggled remembering his reaction when I didn't say 'love you too' in return. Hahahaha...

I went out and called Mukti to come in and we slept immediately as we were too tired with all the exams and stress from the last few days.

Last day of Manik's exam:

Manik's POV:

Finally... I was done with my exams... now I can go and meet Nandu... how much I missed her in these 3 days... it was like 3 decades that she is away from me... I hate the principal or whoever it was who designed the timetable like this... idiot... moron... I didn't even talk to anyone after my exam but just rushed to the parking so that I can reach home asap and then to airport as I had flight to catch this afternoon. Finally ill be able to meet her after 3 loooonngggg days. As soon as the driver parked the car I opened the door and ran into the house directly to my room and brought all my bags down and asked Ramu bhaiya to put them in the car as it would save time.

"mumma... make it fast... Ill get late for my flight" I started shouting taking a seat at the dining table.

"haan haan im coming... stop shouting like a kid Manik.." she said in a strict tone and I made a bad face. She served me lunch and I ate it up in jet speed and I finally was all set to leave to my Nandu's house. I took blessing from Dadu Dj and kissed Mom's cheek and left to the airport. Dad wasn't home yet so I called him and informed that I was leaving and he teased saying I was sounding desperate to meet her..huhh... he toh stays with Mom all the time he will not miss her but my nandu was not here from 3 days so I was missing her... who will not miss their love if she is away for 3 days..
