Manan: Magic is in you (episode 13)

Hey guys….plzz do comment…

Finally it’s the day when new session will begin… Students from second year to fourth year are sitting on the loooooooooooooong dining table… Mukbhi,Dhrulya, Aryaman, Harshad and Varun being among them…

Mukbhi are busy in their cute little fights while Dhruly are lost in eachother… Varun is constantly eyeing Alya… Harshad notices it yet again…

Harshad: Bro… Are you sure you aren’t hiding anything from me… You know,I can help you with anything…

Varun(looking at Harshad) :Ok… There is something… But I will tell you later on…

Aryaman:Come on… It’s a big day for us… Our sisters are getting admitted here…

Harshad:Yeah… Soha and Riddhima will also be joining here… I am happy for them… You know… Riddhima was randomly speaking about Hecate and was so excited… Finally she will be here…

Aryaman: Yeah… Same with Soha… She is constantly using her wands… And now does even little things using wand…

Harshad laughs… So does Aryaman and Varun…

Aryaman:Well… We haven’t seen each other’s family even though we are so good friends…

Harshad: Hmmm… Even our sisters will be in the same batch… And maybe best friends like us… Then maybe we could plan a get together…

Aryaman: Indeed a good idea…

Abhi is playing with Mukti’s hairs… Mukti smiles at his antiques… Suddenly she looks at Dhruv who is hopelessly smiling and spinning the spoon in the empty cup looking at Alya…
She elbows Abhi and signs him to look at Dhrulya…
Abhi looks at Dhruv and facepalms…

Mukti:What happened??

Abhi: To me?? Nothing…. To them?? Definitely something…

Mukti: Huh??

Abhi: From the time he has returned from his vacation,he often stays lost… Smiles when alone… Speaks less… And moreover his share in being my partner in crime is decreasing day by day in little amounts…

Mukti: He is your best friend and also cousin… You should ask him…

Abhi:Do you think I didn’t try..?? Even Navni tried it…

Mukti: Who?

Abhi: My sisters … Nandini and Navya… We call them Navni together… Oh I never told you I have a younger sisters… they are getting admitted today here…

Mukti:Even my brothers…

Abhi:You have one?

Mukti:Abhiii…Not one but two.. Do you remember the first time we met,I told you that my mom regards me as eldest and naughtiest … One is elder only when there is a younger child at home…and in my case two two are there…

Mukti smiles sheepishly :So… they are also like you?

Abhi: No… Navya is like me but Nandini is like you… Infact more than you… She is equal to 50 Mukti Malhotra… (Mukti looks on open mouthed… Abhi looks at her  and giggles) Yeah… That’s how my Mom introduced her to VP Malhotra when they first met…and haaa I remember she said Nandu is equal 20 Mukti and Cabir Malhotra each…means one of your brother’s name is Cabir I guess…

Mukti:yaaa…wait…She has met my mom!!

Abhi nods :Yeah… And infact she loved Nandini very much… Infact so much that even VP Malhotra calls her Nandu now… Just like us…

Mukti: My would be sister in law is really advanced… Our mischievous trio will rock… OMG!! Wait a second… That means those risky ideas were never yours??(Abhi shakes his head) I knew it… Only a devilish mind like me or more than me can think of such ideas… Wow…

Mukti thinks Nandini can help her in Manik’s matter…

Abhi:wait…you said trio…so..who are included in it??

Mukti:Me…Nandini and ofcourse Cabir..you know..mom says that though I am older than him..still we are just evil twins…

Abhi: Ah… I knew it… Infact I told Nandu that you two will have a great bonding… You know ‘like minds’…

Mukti: Well let her come… Then we will see that… But first let us do something of them…

She says pointing at Dhrulya….

Mukti calls them out but they gives no response… Abhi waves his hand in front of his eyes still no response…

Mukti: Wait a minute… (she takes out her wand) Avis…!!

3 Birds come out from the tip of Mukti’s wand and goes towards Dhrulya… Two of them sit on Dhruv’s either ears and one on Alya’s head… They start biting them lightly but it pins them and they comes out of their trance shouting…

Dhruv: Ouch!!! Ooiiee… What’s that?? Get away from me!!! (He takes out his wand) Duro!!!

The birds turn into stones and fall down…

Mukti and Abhi burst out laughing…

Alya: What yaar?? Why you did this Mukti ?

Abhi: We were calling you guys from that time but you gave no response… Helplessly she had to do that…

Dhruv: Anyways lets go.. Navni …yaa we have to meet Navni..

Alya:Dhruvvvv….who is Navni???

Abhi:My sisters…Navya and Nandini…

Mukti:yaa…even we have to see Cabir and Manik…

All four take their wands and go to the ground where all freshers were there..

Navya runs behind someone calling…. She finally stops…
Navya: The people here are so weird and arrogant..!! It’s better to find the way on my own… Aiyyappa… Plz help me…

She turns but almost collide with Kartik,a fourth year bully….

Kartik eyes her from head to toe :Ooooo…. I heard you need some help… Why to bother your Aiyyappa for that…. Even I can help you…

Navya: Thanks… Can you please show me the way to the dining assembly…

Kartik is busy eyeing her… He happens to look behind her and see Nandini coming… They have a little eye contact… He gets open mouthed seeing such a beauty entering…
He thinks that this year Hecate had chosen real sweets for his entertainment….

Navya: Excuse me!! Hello??

Kartik: Oh… Ya sure…

He again looks at Nandini… She reads his mind and her widens her eyes…

Kartik and Navya turn to go… He keeps a hand on her shoulder and slides it down tracing get back… He is about to touch her buttocks but just then he falls down on ground and starts vomiting slugs from his mouth
Navya gets shocked seeing his behavior suddenly…

Nandini comes and stands beside Navya…and smirks while Navya gives a NOT AGAIN look..

Nandini: The ones who eye and touch others badly get punished this way only… Next time better beware before you take in action your filthy intentions… We are freshers but that doesn’t mean we can’t do anything…

She takes Navya and walks off from there… Manik witnesses her act… He doesn’t see her face but admires her courage… But what she did to Kartik,it made him realize that she is female Cabir Malhotra and carbon copy of Mukti Malhotra… He smiles at the thought of it…

Nandini looks into her eyes :Oh… Don’t worry about him… It’s just for an hour…Navu…

Navya:Nandu…But how you did that??

Nandini: you know na…that’s normal for me….–

FB SHOWS…

Nandini reads Kartik’s mind when he eyes her before turning…

Nandini:Oh no… That guy is a jerk… how dare he touch my sister… I must do something but what??

She then looks at her wand about smiles…

Nandini: Let’s go buddy… (She points her wand towards Kartik) Slugulus Eructo..!!!

A green jet of light hits Kartik and he falls down…

FB ENDS…

Navya laughs… Nandini joins her…

A girl comes running to Kartik seeing him vomiting slugs…

The girl :Who dared to mess with Soha khurana’s cousin??

Kartik :A fresher… She was wearing a black dress… And had long open hairs…

Someone from the crowd tells that she was Nandini Murthy… Principal Murthy’s grand daughter…

Soha (ordering tone) :Take him to sick room… Fast… And I will see this Nandini Murthy….

She rages from there searching for Nandini…

Mukbhi and Dhrulya are on the ground…

Dhruv: Where are these your siblings and our cousins???

Mukbhi: We don’t know… We are also searching them…

Mukti: I think I saw Manik… Alya,wait with them here… I will be back soon….

She goes from there behind Manik…
Cabir is running and suddenly collides with a girl…. She stumbles and is about to fall but is caught by Cabir in his arms…
He makes are stand straight and asks :You ok??

The girl looks at him and nods…

Cabir: BTW,you are beautiful… Just be careful while you walk… I don’t want such beauties to get hurt…

Riddhima blushes :You speak a good deal of cheesy lines… BTW Riddhima Vardhan…

Cabir :Cabir Malhotra…

They are about to shake hands but Harshad comes there calling her out…

Cabir: You are his sister??

Riddhima nods :And I guess,I must leave now… (To Harshad) Coming Bhai!!!

She goes from there but turns back to look at Cabir and smiles…

Cabir runs to find Manik…

Navni spots Abhi on the ground Nandini :Come,lets introduce ourselves to my bhai’s friends… they are gonna love us…

Navya nods… They both go to where Abhi and Dhrulya are standing…

Navni: bhai!!

Abhi sees them :Navni!! Where were you guys… I was searching for you both…

Alya turns and sees Navni…and is busy admiring their bond… They both do not notice each other…

Dhruv:hwww…that’s not fair even I was searching for you guys…

Abhi:Jko..go girls meet him also…he was searching you both in Alya’s eyes..

Dhrulya blushes…

Nandini: Are bhai … I took someone’s class… But I will tell you about it later on…But–

Dhruv: Haaawwwwww… Nandu!! You just entered and have already started your devilish actions… Your first day hasn’t even started…

Nandini: Exactly… And therefore you also should not start now… And he deserved to be punished… He was trying to misbehave with my sister… So I cast a slug curse on him…

Abhi:what??He tried to misbehave…with Navu …what was his name tell me..how dare he..chal Dhruv let’s teach him a lesson…

Navya: Nooo…bhai chill…Nandu already casted slug curse on him…so just chill…

Alya gets shocked and thinks she is really ahead of Mukti and Cabir…

Abhi:What!!! You did right to punish him but slug curse!! And I remember, Dad didn’t teach you that… He knows you well… Means you learnt it secretly!!!

Nandini smiles sheepishly… Dhruv and Navya controls their laughter… Alya does the same…

Navya:Leave that…Dhruv bhai who is this??

Pointing towards Alya…

Dhruv looks towards Alya…He is unable to speak…and is lost in Alya’s eyes…

Abhi: BTW,she is Alya…Mukti’s Cousin , my best friend…and Dhruv’s girlfriend…

Nandini thinks that she is the one about whom Abhi was talking… Great…

Navni:Hi Alya…

Alya doesn’t responds… Navya also looks on confused…Nandini asks him what’s wrong..Abhi gives a THEY WILL NEVER CHANGE look

Abhi: Alya?? Hello????

Nandini: Hello?????______________ ok… Alright… I have to do this…. (she sees a stone nearby and points her wand at it) Bombarda!!!

They come out of their world hearing explosion sound…

Alya: I hate you Mukti!!!

Abhi:Hey!! She is not here… You can see…

Alya:Then who did that??

Abhi points at Nandini… Nandini smiles sheepishly…Navya chuckles and Dhruv give a NOT AGAIN look…

Nandini: I am sorry but you guys weren’t listening to me…

Alya :Ah… It’s ok… You are Abhi’s and Dhruv’s sister… And everything is allowed for you… BTW,you are beautiful…

Nandini: Thanks… And I know that…

Navya: Ah… BTW,where is your beautiful princess? I am eager to meet her…

Nandini:yeah…me too…

Alya: she has gone to search for Manik and Cabir… (She gives a questioning look) I mean her brothers… It’s their Orientation as well…

Nandini:Oh… Ya I know… VP Malhotra had told me about them…

Alya (to Dhruv) :Well… I didn’t expected you to be such a possessive brother… It’s such a surprise for me to see this side of yours…

Dhruv :For me as well…I mean I never got a chance to show my possessiveness to them… they would themselves solve…their problems… they never let…their problems to come reach us…

They hesitate but then give each other a formal hug then smile at each other…(feeling awkward in front of Navni)

Abhi looks on shocked…seeing their awkwardness…

Nandini:Alya!!

She looks into her eyes :Yeah!!

Nandini reads her mind… Dhrubhi shouts : Alya no… Don’t look!!

Nandini: Ah!! You are caught… I know it…

Dhrubhi and Navya facepalms….

Nandini: Navu… I think we should leave for the dining assembly…

She gives a wide grin to Alya… she looks on clueless…

They both go from there…

Alya: What happened???

Dhruv: You don’t know you are in such a big mess…!!

Alya:Huh??

Abhi: Nothing… I must go to my sisters as Nandu is dangerous… You go to Mukti… And if she asks about me… Tell her I am in dining assembly…along with Dhruv..chal Dhruv before this small devil gets..herself and Navu into trouble…

Dhrubhi goes from there…. Alya goes to find Mukti… she spots her somewhere…

Alya: Hey… Where were you… I just met Navya and Nandini… Abhi’s sisters… Mukti… Nandini is really ahead of you and Cabir together…

Mukti:Really??

Alya: Yaa… BTW, where are Manik and Cabir??

Mukti: Oh… They had to report to dining assembly…. So they went…

Alya: We must go there… Abhi and Dhruv also went there…

Mukti nods and they both leave…

Dining assembly…

Navni and Dhrubhi reach the assembly…. Now it’s much crowded by the freshers….

Manik is standing there along with Cabir…. Nandini passes from behind… He gets the sandalwood smell…. He closes his eyes and feels it… A sweet smile spreads over his face… He turns back to find the source but Nandini has passed by then…

Manik: She’s here… I can feel her… I can smell her perfume… She is here… I know… I have to find her…

Cabir:brooo…who is here???what are you talking about??..

Manik :nothing…

Soha comes there searching for Nandini…

Soha: Who is Nandini Murthy here…??

Nandini stops there hearing her name…

Nandini: I guess I have a fan here…

Soha fumes even more…

Soha: Miss Nandini Murthy… I guess you have too much pride upon being principal’s grand daughter and you think that you can use magic upon anybody!! How dare you use that slug curse on my cousin!

The crowd starts gathering to witness the drama…. Manik sees the chaos and comes there as well…along with Cabir…

Nandini: Oh… That jerk was your cousin… Sorry I didn’t know that… (Kavya smirks) And thank Aiyyappa for I didn’t know that from before… Else even for your misbehavior,he would have paid…

Manik notices Nandini… He gets impressed with her confidence…
Soha fumes… Harshad comes there with Riddhima and Aryaman…

Aryaman: That’s Soha… Why is she having an argument?

Harshad: I guess,we have to see that to know… Well do not interfere BTW… Let her handle it alone… She has to learn…

Aryaman nods… he looks at Nandini… He is awestruck seeing her… He just keeps staring at her….whereas Harshad sees Navya…and is awestruck seeing her..

Soha: You just cannot use the curse on anybody..!!

Nandini: And you just cannot touch anybody inappropriately without permission…and especially not My sister…

Soha: Don’t you dare mess with me… You don’t know my anger,I can do anything when I am angry…

Nandini: Well sweetheart,you don’t know me…. I can turn anything in my favour…

Soha looks at her… Nandini happens to see in her eyes… She reads her mind… Alya and Mukti join them…

Alya: Hey that’s Abhi’s sister!?Nandini

Mukti:What!! Woah… Let’s see what she will do now…

Soha takes out her wand :Now just see what I do!!!

Nandini knows what she is going to do… She being quick twists her hand with which she is holding the wand and turns her back twisting her hands even more…

Nandini: I guess I didn’t tell you… I don’t need magic to deal with jerks…

She twists her hand even more… Soha shouts in pain… Aryaman is about to go to her but Harshad stops him…

Harshad: No… Don’t go… There are her other friends with her… Stop here for now…

Aryaman:I am not a coward…

Harshad: You want your sister to be proved as one…??

He stops…. Harshad smirks looking at Navya…. Manik thinks to intervene else the matter can go out of hand…

Abhi: Nandini… Leave her…!!

Nandini: Few more seconds bhai… I am having fun…

Dhrubhi facepalms… Navya supresses her laugh… Alya ,Mukti and Cabir are speechless… Soha looks at the crowd seeing her with amusement… She fumes on her insult… She cunningly points her wand at Nandini from her twisted hands and is about curse her… Manik happens to see her eyes and reads her mind… Soha is about to read the curse when Manik intervenes standing at his place only….

Manik: Hey Just stop it there both of you….

They look at him…

Manik: The matter can be sorted amongst you two as well… Why are you both creating a scene here…?

Nandini leaves Soha’s hand and recognizes Manik at once…

Nandini (in mind) :Oh… Mr. Hotness!! But how dare he interfere in Nandini Murthy’s matter!!!

Nandini:Listen… That’s none of your business… So stay out of it…

Manik (in mind) :Such an ungrateful girl… I saved her from getting cursed and she is showing attitude to me…!! Manik Malhotra!! (To Nandini) Girls like you are such an attention seeker… You should thank me instead of showing attitude!!

Nandini: For what???

Manik: For Savi—

Nandini: Leave it… I don’t wanna listen… Coz I don’t wanna thank you… Infact,I forgive you… Just beware that you don’t interfere in my matters from the next time… (Manik is at the loss of words seeing her attitude… Aryaman is flattered) And you (to Soha) Remember my name… Nandini Murthy… Better prevent yourself from coming in my way from the next time…

She flicks her hair in style and walks off from there in attitude… All look at her unbelievably… Soha fumes… She swears to avenge her insult…

Manik goes to Soha:You alright??

Soha nods… Manik asks her to take care and goes from there… Soha looks at him smiling… Alya , Mukti and Cabir give each other a blank look…. Aryaman goes to Soha…

Aryaman: You ok??

Soha nods and thinks of Manik…
Aryaman thinks of Nandini…and Harshad of Navya…

Vanshika comes up on the stage and addresses the assembly….
