Manan : It’s You ~ my firefly

The party was going on…manik & soha were talking sitting on a sofa..soha noticed that manik’s full concentration was on nandini..they were stealing glances repeatedly..it irriteted soha more…

After sometime manik noticed harshad coming towards nandini..
Soha called manik..so manik looked at her…
Soha : manik..r u even listening?!
Manik : yeah..of course..
Soha started her blabbering…

Harshad went to nandini..drinks fell on nandini’s dress from harshad’s hand…
Harshad : oh..I’m sorry..I’m really sorry..it’s my mistake..come..I’ll show u the washroom..
Nandini : it’s ok..u go..I’ll handle it myself..
Harshad : nandini plzz..if I won’t help u I’ll feel guilty…
Nandini : but…
Harshad : plzzz..
Nandini : ok…
Harshad took nandini into the washroom…harshad waited outside & nandini cleaned her dress inside…

Meanwhile manik looked at nandini’s direction again..but nandini wasn’t not there..he looked at the whole room..nandini was nowhere to b seen..manik panicked…
Manik : where is nandini?!
Soha : manik..She must b somewhere around..let her b na…
Manik : I’ve to find her…
Soha : nandini isn’t a kid manik..she can handle herself..just stop being so possessive about her..
Manik : u stop it soha..don’t talk about what u don’t know..
Soha : what I don’t know manik??
Manik : I don’t have tym to explain u everything..
Manik left from there searching for nandini…soha got irritated & followed manik…

Nandini came outside the washroom..
Nandini : thnx harshad..
Harshad : nandini..I’m not that bad lyk the way u thought..u know,when I saw u I really liked u..so I wanted to spent some tym with u..I know my way was wrong..what I did on dance it was wrong..
Nandini : what did u do??
Harshad : umm..actually…
Harshad told her everything about the chits..nandini was shocked..she wanted to b angry..but she couldn’t as harshad himself confessed everything..
Harshad : I’m sorry nandini..I know that was very wrong.. But u know..we r lyk that only..me..my frnds..we always do pranks & such kind of things..but my intention was not bad..I’m sorry..
Nandini : u have urself confessed everything & that shows u r not that bad..so itz ok…
Harshad : great..thank u so much nandini..can we b frnds??
Harshad extended his hand towards nandini.. Nandini thought for a while..then she took harshad’s hand for handshake…
Nandini : ok..frnds..
Harshad : thnks a lot…

Both smiled at each other..suddenly manik came & caught harshad by his collar & punched him..
Manik : how dare u?? Don’t u dare to think anything bad about nandini.. How dare u to use such tricks & bring nandini here??? I’ll kill u…
Harshad tried to make him understand.. Nandini was saying manik to leave harshad..but manik didn’t listen..manik started to beat him..
Harshad lost his cool & he also held manik by his collar…
Harshad : enough..I tried to make u understand.. But u don’t want to listen anything.. & whatever I do with nandini how does it matter to u?! Who is nandini to u ha??
Manik : nandini is only mine & don’t u dare to think about her or I’ll kill u.. I love her..I love nandini..do u get that???

Harshad was shocked listening that..nandini was also shocked as she didn’t expect manik will tell it lyk that…

Harshad : u…love nandini??
Manik : yes..I love her…

Harshad thought about soha as he knew soha loves manik from childhood…

Harshad : then soha???
Manik : what soha?! Where does she come from?! She is just my frnd..my childhood frnd..that’s it…

Harshad was shocked to the core..soha is harshad’s best frnd & he cared for soha a lot…

All these conversations was heard by soha as she also followed manik..she was shocked & numb..she thought nandini was trying to snatch manik from her..but she didn’t know manik loves her..she was heartbroken..She left from there immediately…

Harshad : I’m sorry manik..I didn’t know..but I didn’t do anything wrong with nandini..
Nandini : yeah manik..he was just helping me…
Manik : help?!
Nandini : yeah..drinks fall on my dress by mistake.. So he just came here with me to show me the washroom…& we were just talking..that’s it…
Manik realised his mistake..he was startled…he didn’t know what to say..
Harshad : yeah..now u will say sorry..& I’ll say itz ok..so cut the crap..itz ok..I can understand ur possessiveness towards nandini.. & sorry also..I tried to go close to her as I really liked her.. but I didn’t know about ur feelings otherwise I’d have never done that..
Manik : it’s ok dude..I’m sorry too.. I didn’t…
Manik was cutted by harshad…
Harshad : itz ok..I understand…
They hugged each other.. Harshad whispered in manik’s ear : u both make a good pair…manik smiled & thanked him..he left from there…

Manik looked at nandini…nandini also looked angrily at manik..
Manik : sorry !!
Nandini started beating him playfully… Manik was trying to stop nandini & smiling…
Nandini : what sorry manik?! What was that ?! How can u punch him lyk that?!
Manik : arey..I thought…
Nandini stopped beating..
Nandini : what ???
Manik : I thought he was trying to do flirt with u…
Nandini : what if he tried to do flirt with me??
Manik : I would have kill him..didn’t u listen what I said to him??
Nandini : what??
Manik held her by keeping his both hands on her waist & pulled her close…nandini’s hand were on manik’s chest..both were looking at each other’s eyes…
Manik : that I love u & u r only mine..& I know u also love me..
Nandini’s heart started beating fast..she blushed & looked down…
Nandini : who told u??
Manik : u urself…
Nandini looked at him confusingly..
Nandini : I never told that to u…
Manik : ur eyes told that to me…don’t u know ur eyes can’t hide anything from me???
Nandini was startled..both had an eyelock..as if their eyes were confessing their love for each other..
Both unknowingly were coming more close to each other…they could feel each other’s breath…their lips were going to met but nandini pushed manik…
Nandini : I love u manik..but just in ur dreams…
Nandini ran from there laughing.. Manik tried to caught her but failed…manik kept his hand behind his head & smiled…

Nandini was running smilingly & collided with mukti…
Mukti : nandini..rlx..why were u running lyk that?? & this smile….
Manik came from behind…
Mukti : ohhh..now I get it..so did I miss something??
Manan together : shut up mukti..
Mukti gave them an amazed look & manan blushed…
To remove the awkwardness manik tried to chng the topic…

Manik : ahh..mukti..where is soha??
Mukti : she left..
Manik : Left means??
Mukti : I don’t know what happened to her suddenly.. I saw her going..so I called her & asked her..she said she is going home & then left…
Manik : what?!! Then we should also go home..
Mukti : yeah..
Trio left from there after greeting harshad..

Manik was driving the car..mukti & nandini were sitting in the backseat..
Manan were stealing glances through the rear view mirror…mukti saw that & made a fake cough…

Mukti : bhai..plzz concentrate on the road..not on the mirror.. What if some accident occurred???

Nandini blushed & looked outside immediately… Manik looked at nandini through the mirror & smiled watching her blush…

They reached Malhotra mansion…trio went to their respective rooms..manik suddenly thought to check soha & ask why she left lyk that..

He went to her room & found no one there..in fact her cupboard was also empty…he was wondering where soha went..suddenly nyonika came there..

Manik : mom..where is soha??
Nyonika : I was also going to say about that.. Some tym ago,soha came here crying & packed her all staff & left… I asked her what happened but she didn’t say a single word & left…
Manik : what?! But she was fine..what suddenly happened to her?? I think I should go to her house & check…
Nyonika : of course beta..After all she is ur childhood frnd..
Manik : yeah..I’m going..bye mom.
Nyonika : bye beta…

manik went downstair & took his car & left for soha’s house…

Meanwhile in nandini’s room :

Nandini entered in her room happily…
She stand in front of the mirror …

Paari paari honthon pe na jaane kaise
Dhaani dhaani muskurahaton ke phool khilne lage, mann hi mann….

(Nandini smiled looking at the mirror & remembered manik’s word how he said he loves nandini to harshad..)

Khaari khaari hatheliyon pe jaane kaise
Pyaari pyaari rangreliyon ki dhoop sajne lagi, tan badan….

(She blushed remembering that & looked down..she again looked at the mirror blushingly & removed her hair from her face & kept them behind her ear & said I love manik..)

Hui main teri joganiya joganiya
Tu jogi teri joganiyan main joganiyan…

(She smiled fullest & said : yes.. I love manik..she loudly said I love u manik…& twirled in her room happily…)

Ab chaahe mohe rang lagaa
Piya ji mohe ang lagaa

(She fall in the bed smiligly & open pictures of manik in her phone..)

Hui main teri joganiya joganiya
Tu jogi teri joganiyan main joganiyan…

(Nandini bring the mobile close to her & kissed at manik’s photo..then said I love u manik..)

She kept the mobile in her heart & closed her eyes smilingly remembering their cute moments…
