N: Mood off hein?

M: No.

N: Papa ne kuch bola?

M: No.

N: Mom ne data?

M: No.

N: Toh phir aisa sara hua sakal banake kyun baithe  ho?

M: Yunhi.

N: Manik. . . . . . . . . .

M: Hmm.

N: Now a days I can't tolerate your this kind of behaviour.

M: Okay.

N: I'm getting angry.

M: Sorry.

N (angrily shouted): Manikkkkk.

M: Hmm.

N: Baat kyun nahi kar rahe ho?

M: Kar toh raha hun.

N: What's wrong with you? Hmm, sorry, okay and that's it. If you aren't liking me anymore, then say it. What's the need of ignoring me everyday like this?

M: When did I ignore? But if you want to go I won't stop.

N: Tum toh yahi chate thei. Ab toh mein purani ho gayi hoon. Ok I am going. Your way is clear now. Bye.

M: Don't regret later for leaving me.

N: Regret? Why will I? I got to know you very well.

M: Control your anger.

N: After ruining everything, you are asking me to control my anger? Dare you come in front of me or try to contact me.

Nandini got up and started leaving. Manik called her once but it was not loud enough for her to hear.

Next day Manik went to college. He saw Nandini at the entrance only. He was about to say something but before that only, Nandini turned her face. From back Alya came, "Manik, yaha kya kar rahe ho?"

M: Kuch nahi.

Al: Do you have any class now?

M: No.

Al: Let's go to canteen.

M: You go. I'm coming.

Al: No, come with me.

M: I have some work.

Al: Where?

M: In office.

Al: Why?

M: I want a transfer script for Delhi branch of SPACE.

Al: Suddenly this decision?

M: Someone doesn't want to see my face. That's why.

Al: Oh okay.

Manik left from there for office without turning back. Nandini who heard everything was sad. She never wanted Manik to leave like this.

After a week
It was Manik's last day at college. He thought of bidding bye to everyone. But nothing like that happened. Because Nandini came to his class and dragged him holding his collar with her in front of everyone. Manik didn't expect this kind of reaction from Nandini.

M: What's all this?

N: Where are you going leaving SPACE?

M: Delhi.

N: Mein akela yaha kya karungi? Why didn't you talk to me whole week? What do you think of me? Jab mere itne paas aye thei tab iaad nahi aaya ki jana hein.

M: Mein kab paas aya?

N: Kyun nahi aaya?

M: I was thinking what will you think. But you took it wrong and broke up with me.

N: Are you serious?

M: Hmm.

N (laughed): Have you ever kissed?

M: No.

N: Me too. Let's try now.

Before Manik could say anything, Nandini held both his hands and placed them in her waist. She wrapped her hands around his neck and placed her lips on his. It was slow at first but it grew passionate with the passing moments.

When they both were out of breath, they broke the kiss. Nandini moved close to Manik. They were so close to each other that their lips were almost touching. Nandini whispered, "Tum sab kuch ho mere. Tumne bohut parishan kiya hein mujhe. As a punishment, you have to marry me know." Manik was numb with the sudden proposal.

Because of Nandini, now Manik and Nandini standing in front of the mandir. Manik was scared to take such a big step. He was more worried thinking how will he take Nandini home. But now he can't do anything. Everything was done. Looking at Nandini, Manik filled her hairline with vermilion and opened the locker from his neck and made her wear that.

Their friends who had come with them left from there jumping in happiness after the marriage was done. Now Manik and Nandini were alone.

M: Aab kya karogi?

N: Aur kya tumhare sath jaungi.

M: Agar papa ghar sein nikal diya toh?

N: Toh hum mere ghar jayenge.

M: Waha sein bhi nikal diya toh?

N: Toh kya hum dono kahi aur chale jayenge.

M: Let's do one thing. You come with me. I will introduce you as my friend. I will tell them that you were alone at home that's why I take you with me. Later we will see what we can do.

N: They will agree?

M: Sure.

N: When they will get to know it was all lie, then?

M: It's better you go your home. I go mine. After a few years, when I will get job, then I will take you to my home.

N: Oiii toh phir humne aaj shaadi kyun ki? I don't know you have to take me with you today only. You also have to sleep beside me else I will tear all your hairs.

M: Okay okay.

Manik took Nandini to his home. Right now they're standing in front of their house waiting for someone to open the door. Nyonika (Manik's mother) came and opened the door. Nyonika and Nandini were shocked seeing each other.

N: Aunty, aap yahan?

Nyo: Tum yahan aise achanak?

M: Aapdono jante hein ek dusre ko?

Nyo: Of course. She is your dad's business partner's daughter. But what is she doing with you?

Manik was speechless. He didn't know what to say. Hearing all the sounds, Shreekant (Manik's father) came there. He was also shocked seeing Nandini.

Sh: Nandini, tum yahan?

N: Ji, uncle.

Sh: Tum iss gadhe ke sath tho nahi aayi?

N: Actually uncle. . . . . . .

Sh: Why are you looking so pale?

N: Bohut bada jhatka mila hein na issiliye.

Sh: Kya?

N: Mein aapki bahu hoon.

M: Jhut.

Sh: Tu chup rahe. (Turning to Nandini) Kya kaha tumne?

N (fumbling): Oh... Uncle....

Sh: How did an intelligent girl like you fell in love with a idiot like Manik?

Nyo: Intelligent girls always fell in love with stupid boys else how did I marry you? (looking at Manan) Tum dono bahar kya kar rahe ho? Andar aao.

Sh: Of course. Let me call Varun (Nandini's father) and manage him.

Nyonika asked Manik to take Nandini to his room. She went to kitchen to prepare dinner and Shreekant was busy in talking with Varun.

Manik entered into his room with Nandini and closed the door.

M: So, you want to celebrate your suhaagraat in this plain bed or should I decorate it?

N: Whatever you like.

Nandini tip toed to match his level. She placed her lips on his and they both fell on the bed drowning into each other.

--The End--

Done with another shot. It's just a random thought came in my mind suddenly.

How was it?
