Manan : It’s You ~ my firefly

Nandini was falling down & manik caught her in his arms…

Manik called her….
Manik : nandini…
Nandini opened her eyes slowly.. Manik smiled at her…nandini also relaxed herself watching manik..she also smiled at him…
Manik kept her down & made her stand…

Then he held her by keeping his hands on her waist..
Nandini : what r doing manik??what if someone see us??
Manik : u can’t even take care of urself..God knows what will happen to u when I’ll b not with u??!!
Nandini : not with me means?? U will leave me??
Manik : nandini… I didn’t mean that..as long as I’ll b alive..I’ll always b there with u to protect u..but what will happen if something happens to me?!
Nandini’s face became numb & she was at the verge of crying…
Nandini removed manik’s hand from her waist & she was about to go but manik held her hand & pulled her close again…
He kept his one hand on her waist & with the other he wiped her tears..
Manik : I’m sorry …I just said it casually..I didn’t know u will take it too seriously…
Nandini didn’t reply…
Manik with his one hand held his one ear & said : sorryyyy !!! Plzzzz…
Nandini looked at him & removed his hand from his ear…
Nandini : prmiz me u’ll never ever leave me alone??
Manik smiled : prmiz nandini…
Nandini : nothing can happen to u..if death comes na..we will die together only…
Nandini said it so cutely that manik was just awwee on her….
Manik kissed on her cheeks & hugged her tightly..nandini also hugged him back with equal force…

Suddenly mukti & abhi came there…

Mukti : see…they both has started their romance here also..

Nandini left manik immediately… But manik caught her hand…

Manik : so?? U r talking as if u weren’t romancing in the kitchen???

Mukti, abhi & nandini became shocked..

Mukti : bhai..wh-aat r u sa-ying??
Manik : don’t need to act lyk too innocent my dear sister..after coming here,when I saw nandini was busy with lights..I didn’t want to dstrb her..so I went to kitchen to see u..but u guys were busy in romance..that’s why u didn’t see me..
Mukti made a face lyk caught red handed & looked downstair..
Manik : then I came here to give u guys some privacy.. & here..I saw nandini was falling down from table..so I caught her…
Abhi : what?? Nandini was falling down??
Nandini : manik !!!
Manik : oopss..
Abhi : that’s why I told u not to do these things..I’ll do that..but u didn’t listen..what if something happened to u??!!
Nandini : bhai !! Nothing happened na?!!!
Abhi : now u won’t do anything.. Go to the room & take rest…
Nandini : but….
Abhi : nandu !!!

Nandini left from there angrily…
Manik : it’s ok.I’ll handle her…
Abhi : ok..& u also take some rest as it was a long day for u as well..u must b tired..I’ll handle the work.
Manik : ok..but if u need any help..do tell me..
Abhi : ok..

Nandini was lying on bed turning on opposite side from the door..

Manik came there..Manik tapped on her shoulder… Nandini turned but there was no one…nandini was confused..
Manik was hiding behind the bed…he again came & tapped on her shoulder again..
Nandini again turned.. But there was no one again…
Nandini got up from bed & was walking towards the door…
Nandini : who is doing all these?? Look.stop it..I’m not scared..ok?? & ur tricks won’t work…

Though nandini was telling all these but her fear was visible on her voice..

Manik stood behind her & pulled her to him..
Nandini was about to scream but manik kept his hand on her mouth immediately..

Manik : nandini..sshhh.don’t scream..
Nandini calmed down & manik removed his hand from her mouth..

Nandini : manik..u r so bad..I hate u..

Nandini started to bit him playfully..manik held her hand & pulled her..both fall on bed..nandini was on top of Manik… Manik tucked her hair behind her ear…nandini blushed..then manik switched the position.. Nandini was now beneath manik & manik was on top of nandini…manik slowly came towards her lips..nandini was also lost in that moment…both were just an inch away from each other…both could feel each other’s breath which were driving them crazy..they were just about to kiss each other but disturbed by mukti…Mukti was calling manik from the drawing room…

Manik made an irritating face & said coming….
Nandini laughed a bit…
Manik : don’t b so happy.. U’ll b punished for this later..
Nandini blushed…

Manik got up from her & left from the room…Nandini smiled & remembered the moment again..she blushed remembering his words & hide her face on the pillow…
Suddenly she got a msg…
Nandini : manik !!!
Nandini took her phone assuming it manik’s msg…but she was confused watching the sender id…
Nandini : unknown nmbr !! Who is it?!!
Nandini opened the msg & her face color chngd watching the msg..she was shocked as well as nervous watching it…she ignored the msg..but then again received a msg..she read it & lost in her thoughts…

Meanwhile in the drawing room :

Then cabir & navya came..they also went to kitchen directly listening manik & mukti’s voice…

Mukti : cabir !! Navya !!
Manik : cabir !!
Manik & cabir hugged each other while mukti & navya hugged each other….

Abhi : what happened?? Did u find nandini??

Manik left from there without saying anything…

Abhi : what has happened to manik??
Cabir showed him the msg & told him that abhi’s car is also missing.. May b nandini has taken it..

Abhi : what is this?! It’s not fair..she should’ve tell us if something was that urgent…
Mukti : leave it na..let’s wait for her..
Cabir : mukti is r8..let her come.. & about manik..leave him alone for sometime..he’ll b ok…

Manik was sitting in the room..

Manik in mind : nandini..why do u do all these?! If u wanted to go somewhere u could’ve tell me at least..I would’ve taken u there by myself..where r u nandini?!!!

In an isolated road…

A girl was driving a car…it was nandini…

Nandini in mind : I’m sorry manik..sorry bhai…but it was necessary for me to go there..if I would’ve tell u..u guys would never allow me to go there….

Flashback –

Nandini got an msg…she opened the msg…

“Nandini..I want to meet u..come at khurana mansion – ur uncle”

Nandini was shocked to see it..she decided to avoid it..but she again received a msg…

“nandini.. Plzz don’t avoid it..I won’t harm u..I just want to talk to u..then I won’t dstrb u..but plzz come for once..if u want u can bring someone with u also for ur safety…”

Nandini became nervous & started to think what should she do….

Nandini’s POV :
God..what will I do now?! I also want to talk to him..but bhai & manik..they won’t let me go..moreover.. I want to face it alone.. I want to face my fear..I also need some answers from him…should I go?? Yes..I should.. Otherwise.. I won’t b able to stay in peace…I’ll go…
End of POV

Nandini came outside from the room..she saw manik was standing on a tool & mukti beside him in the kitchen & thought it’s a gd opportunity…

Nandini left from there quietly so that no one could notice her..she also took abhi’s car keys from the table then left…
Flashback ends…

Nandini reached khurana mansion..
She got out from the car & went inside the mansion..

She called saying Mr.Khurana..
Kishore came out of his room & came downstair…

Kishore : so u came…
Nandini : yes…why have u call me here??
Kishore : why did u do that nandini??after ur parents death..I brought u to this home to stay with us..I did everything for u..& u..u snatched my company from me !! Why?!
Nandini : u know the reason…
Kishore : just for that reason that I sent u to trilok?! But it was also for ur betterment.. We would b famous in the whole world for that project.. Not only me…
Nandini : oh really?? I would b famous by selling my body to that jerk & it would b better for me??

Kishore : no one would know about that..it would b a secret…
Nandini : f9..no one would know that..but what about my principals?? My feelings?? U never think about that..why??? I’d said no to u that day only..but u made me kidnapped by that trilok..why?!
Kishore : principals..feelings.. These all r bullshits..only money & fame matters in this world…
Nandini : that’s why u killed my parents.. R8??
Kishore was shocked to the core..
Kishore : it’s false.. Who told u?!
Nandini : don’t try to lie..trilok said everything to me & he also showed me proofs… He had gathered all these so that he can use that against u whenever he needed..
Kishore : trilok !!!
Nandini : didn’t u feel shame while killing my parents?! She was ur own sister…just look at ur own son..I’m her cousin.. Still he treats me lyk his own sis & can do anything for me..& u…u killed ur own sister…why??? Answer me???
Kishore : bcz she & her husband were trying to ruin my business.. They were trying to take the positions of my company…
Nandini : u killed them just for money & fame?!! Just for that u showered ur fake love for us all these years?! Whatever u did with me..I would’ve forgive u for that..but whatever u did with my parents.. I will never forgive u for that…
Kishore : I’m not even asking for forgiveness..
Nandini : u will…u did that all for ur business na…now look..I’ve snach ur company,ur business,ur reputation from u..now what will u do?? & u know what?? Ur son has also left ur house..he has bought his own apartment…
Kishore : I don’t care about that looser…

Nandini : he is not a looser…u r looser…just remove ur so called pride from ur eyes & face the reality..u have already lost ur business.. Now u have also lost ur son,ur sister..just for ur own deeds..u had everything.. But now look around..u have nothing.. Now stay here alone in this whole mansion & think who is looser…gd bye Mr Khurana…

Kishore was silent..he was feeling as if nandini has shown him the real mirror..he was really left alone..lyk a looser…

Nandini wiped her tears & left from there…

She sat in the car..she looked at khurana mansion for the last tym..then she started the car & left….
