When I think I know you well,
You exactly 'came new..
When I think I don't know you at all
You speak volumes with me...
One hand you say I'm important to you
On other you never care about me..
And the thought of being with you scared me as being without you."
-Sitara
Nandini can't take anymore. Her heart flutters even at the thought of him. What kind of emotion is this? The weird feeling can't subside."Nandu why are you blushing", Aryaman asked her after entering her room.Nandini turned even redder. She shook her head in denial."Don't even try, I can clearly see that... Btw is this related to the song or something?", Aryaman winked."How do you know?", Nandini shocked in amusement." I know... He is clearly refering you Nandu""Maggu yaar, I can't understand him at all. I mean why he has to be always so mysterious. I hope the song is for me", Nandini pouted cutely."It is Nandu. Okay tell me one thing, what do you feel about him, I mean with him... You have to say the truth""I...feel.. feel so safe around him...and more...I don't know how to express... But the way I feel about him leaving me guilty in the end",Nandini painfully sighed."Guilty? For what?""I..."" Wait, is this about Aliya ?"Nandini nodded. How could she say him that no matter what they have in the end he was Aliya's boyfriend. And isn't it wrong to feel something for him?"No Nandu, it was in the past. And unfortunately Aliya is no more. Even you like him from the first itself , before you even knew him", Aryaman tried to explain her."It was just a teenage crush maggu"Nandini knew what he is trying to say. But she has to confess her feelings to Manik. This time she has to...Cabir stood there rooted behind the door accidentally eavesdropping their conversation. Nandini liked Manik. That's a news. But he won't tell this to manik. That duffer has to realise his own.He had no idea. Aryaman seems like a nice guy but why did he do this to Aliya? Or is he assuming things of his own?Cabir felt so confused. He has to find more, more evidence for this. But how... He retraced his path and went out without meeting Nandini. ...5 days later...Manik going restless in the aeroplane that he really want to reach their home soon and to see her. He only knew how hard it was living 5 damn days without her presence. It felt like emptiness and lonilness engulfed him. As soon as he reached the airport he hurried to their home through a cab not even waited for cabir to pick him up. Manik don't know if she is at home or at work. Something inside him told to go home soon.He trusted his gut feelings surprisingly. He wanted to know whether she missed him like he missed her. He even tried to call her, but all the time it was either switched off or unreachable. He can't seem to understand the new feelings that's troubling him for almost a week. Those little sweet moments with her haunting him so sweetly ever. The bitter sweet feeling is something he never felt ever. Not even for Aliya. Infact he even been away from Aliya for months but he never missed her this much. He never missed anyone to this extent that actually scared him to death. Manik closed his eyes in releif as he noticed Nandini's car there. So she must be at home now.He adjusted his hair and rubbed his eyes. He maybe look like a zombie with lack of sleep and food. But all he care about now is her. His Nandini...His Nandini? Since when?!He pressed the calling bell twice as his breathe has got heavy due to the running. He don't know why his heart bearing so fast. The door opened revealing a small petite girl with her gorgeous doe eyes goes wide in amazement. Manik showed his flawless smile at her.Nandini can't even believed her eyes that he is here. Finally. She stared at him in disbelief.Her eyes roaming over him shamelessly memorizing his every features again. She stare into his eyes asking if he is okay, because she is nowhere near to that. After seeing him her hollow part were get filled up. The pain and emptiness fled away at that instant when his gorgeous face came into her view.It was like the separation taught them something important they had which was too precious to lose.Her eyes welled up and hands started to trembling. She was scared to even blink. What if he vanished all of a sudden ?What if this all is just a dream...The way they stared each other like they were meeting after centuries.She looks so fragile lost all the glow in her face.Why can't she take care of her?"Manik", she almost managed to whispered his name. He came out if his reverie.He took a step closer to her. Their breathes start to rhythm. He is so close to her just a inch gap between them. She closed her eyes as usual. Manik was about to hug her...."Who is that Nandu?"A disgusting sound hit his ears as he move away from her. Nandu jerked backwards awkwardly looking here and there.Manik gritted his teeth at that sound.Bad timing maggu... She mentally scolds him.....Unedited.Do you think Aryaman is the real culprit ?What do you think about Manan?Thanks for all the love. Keep supporting. It means a lot to me. Do vote and comment.Stay home, stay safe.Love,Sitara ✨
