Recap : Manik met Dev....

............................................................

Sonakshi is pleading Manik through her eyes who is in front of her...

Nandini sensing Manik's mood is standing in the corner of the room.

After meeting Dev....Manik took Nandini again to Sonakshi's home and started to scold both Sonakshi and Nandini.

Manik angrily : "How many days these things are happening?.....And why you both didn't said to me? The boys there are daily teasing you....They are calling you by names "Amul baby....,sweety" And what you both did? You both shut your mouth and came silently?....Hey Nandini! Atleast you could have opened your mouth right?"

Saying this Manik gritted his teeth.

Nandini not knowing what to say....looked at Sonakshi.

Sona : "Hey Manik! Why are you threatening her now?..........I only told her not to tell you.....First who will get afraid of these small things?....I don't think it as an issue to be discussed itself....That's why I didn't tell you"

Manik angrily to Sona : "You won't be afraid Sona....You will even slap and come if he crosses his limits....But she?....She got very scared while crossing that area itself....I only know how much she got scared and hugged me tight....You want all this right? If you both told me in the beginning itself.... I would have done something and the boys will not be there by today and most importantly she might not have suffered all these days...."

Sona : "Manik...Enough ! You are worrying unnecessarily!....Now the boys won't come in our way right?...Leave it now. Hereafter, if we face any such kind of situations we will tell you....Now leave me...My ears are paining. I can't bear it anymore....And one more important thing....If your bua i.e my mom heard this.....she will start her rantings.... like girls should be quiet when they go outside...they should bend their heads and walk....I can't bear such advices...So please reduce your volume"

Saying this Sonakshi pleaded Manik.

Sahil came and put his hands on Manik's shoulder!

Sahil : "Hey! Mams...Why are you troubling my sister?"

Manik angrily : "Come...I am waiting for you only.. You are claiming her as your sister right? That is not enough...You should take care of your sister carefully"

Sahil chuckled : "What? Should I take care of Sona? Don't you know about Sona?.....Okay now tell me What's the matter?....What happened suddenly?"

Manik told the happenings. Sahil laughed.

Manik : "Why are you laughing like a made person now?"

Sahil : "If boy tease them it is wrong....Then if girls tease boys....What we can do for that?.....If boys do then it is eve teasing......then if girls do...then it's just for fun right?"

Nandini : "Bhai! Who teased you bhai?"

Sahil : "No dear....In my college...the senior girls will tease the junior boys. That's what I am saying."

Nandini smilingly : "Bhai! That's ragging!"

Manik angrily : "Now it's very important right? We are talking something serious. Remember that!....but you people are laughing"

Sahil : "Hey Manik!...leave that. Okay now tell who is the person you are mentioning about? Do you know him before?"

Manik : "No...I don't know him.....But he is from your college....Final year...Name is Dev Dixit"

Sahil : "Ohhh...that one! I know him. He is from my class only. He is good person. He will not go for any trouble. Whatever is the problem...he will solve it calmly ..."

Nandini immediately with full smile on her face : "You are correct bhai...He dealt this matter very cooly as soon as he came....When he told that he is police...I too believed him..Manik too believed him....Isn't it Manik?"

Saying this she looked at Manik.

But even God doesn't know what she saw in Manik's eyes.....she immediately shutted her mouth.😂

Manik : "Okay Sahil. We are leaving. Hey Sona! Hereafter you hide anything like this I don't know what I will do!....Hey Nandini you too! Now come, Let's go"

Nandini nodded her head.

Manik smilingly : "Bye Sona...take care"

As soon as Manik left Nandini too smiled at them and followed Manik.

............................................................

After some days...

Sona is purchasing some gift for her friend's birthday. So Nandini too accompanied her.

Nandini : "Di! Everything is pretty....See this cat toy....."

Saying this she took the cat toy and kept it near her cheek since it is too soft. She tried to do the same with Sona. But Sona refused making faces.

Sona : "Hey! Are you crazy? You know right that I don't like cats.. Then too you are saying like this.. I will kill you for this!"

Saying this Sona took a toy and is about to hit her with it when Nandini screamed suddenly.

Other persons in the shop looked at them with a questioning look and then carried on with their work...

Nandini angrily : "Di! Because of you I felt embarrassed. Go ...I won't talk to you"

Saying this she went and stood at some distance from Sona. Sona chuckled and went on to buy the gift.

Nandini is standing near the counter. A flower vase was placed on the counter. She took the vase in her hand and started admiring it since it was beautifully painted.

"Did you liked it?"

Hearing a voice near to her shoulder Nandini suddenly turned back.

Dev is standing behind her.

Nandini smilingly : "Hai Sir!"

Dev : "Hai ! I only selected this flower vase... If you liked it...you take it. I will buy another one"

Nandini : "No...No sir! I don't want"

Dev smilingly : "Don't want Sir. I am Dev. You can call me Dev"

Nandini : "Mmmm"

Dev : "Did you came alone? "

Saying this he scanned the shop through his eyes and his eyes landed on Sonakshi.

Dev smilingly : "Ohh...Jhansi Rani too came with you!"

Nandini : "Don't tell like that in front of my Di. She will get angry....Her name is...."

Sona sternly : "Excuse me!"

When Dev and Nandini turned back , Sona glared at Nandini.

Sona to Nandini : "I had told you many times not to tell our name to those who we don't know before"

Nandini : "Sorry Di"

Dev smilingly : "Hai Jhansi Rani! How are you?"

Sona angrily : "Hello! My name is not Jhansi Rani.....Sonakshi..."

Saying this she bited her tongue for blurting out her name.

Dev laughed. Nandini failed in controlling her laughter.....😂😂😂

Dev : "I know your name beforehand itself...."

Sonakshi starred Dev as to how he came to know her name.

Dev continued : "Nandini madam only repeating your name like prayer right? Sona di.. Sona di. Plus I know your brother Sahil. Sahil thanked me for helping Manik...."

Sonakshi angrily : "Okay. You got to know everything. But you don't know manners in talking to persons who you don't know before hand. My brother told that you are good person. But it didn't seems to"

Dev : "That's what I am saying from the beginning......You know me right...We met in the bus... Now in shop....More than that you both are Sahil's sisters....What I have to know more than this? Tell me....You are younger than me...But still if you want me to address you as Madam... I will do it!"

Sonakshi glaringly : "But you are speaking wrongly to girls"

Dev : "No I didn't..... Nandini? You tell me. Did I speak anything wrong?"

Nandini stammered : "That...that...mmmm"

Nandini can't answer his question due to Sonakshi's glare. She felt pity for Dev.

Dev to Sonakshi : "Okay leave that Madam.....Hereafter I will call you Madam...Like come madam...go Madam...Is it Okay Madam? "

Sonakshi got very angry hearing several Madams at a stretch....

Sonakshi to Nandini : "Come Let's go"

Saying this Sonakshi walked out of the shop.....Nandini too followed her but turned and looked at Dev often....

............................................................

One fine Day!

Manik's Room

Nandini is arranging things in Manik's Room which are messed up by him.

When she is arranging books in her shelf...a Diary from the shelf fall down...

The diary which fell on the table got opened and the pages started to flip due to the heavy wind force from window....

When she took the diary from the table...her eyes stuck on some words which sounds like a poem...

Nandini likes poems very much....

She started to read the poem forgetting that Manik will scold her if she is caught.

Author's Note :   My first try in poem... Will welcome negative comments but to an extent only😜

She is Mine....

Flowers hung their heads down

Before her Smile.....

Flowers or Jewels are not needed

To decorate her......

Her Smile Is Enough.......

She glows when she smiles....

Dimple on both sides.....

Like the centre of flower

Which has Honey in it......

Like it attracts bees.....

It attracts me....

It pulls me toward you..

It feels to touch you....

Finish reading the lines...Nandini felt a hot breath near her neck from behind......and she turned immediately....
