23|Love Is In The Air

Aayi aisi raat hai jo
Bohot khushnaseeb hai
Chahe jise door se duniya
Wo mere kareeb hai

Nandini smile Manik, completing her spaghetti.

Her eyes wouldn't leave him, she was now a hundred percent sure that she was completely madly and irrevocably in love with him.

“ I'm really happy Kabir ran away, you don't know Nandini how much it hurt me to see you being his bride ”
She dropped the form on the table and held his hand.

“ Kabhi mujhe bataya kyu nahi ? ”

“ Tum thappad maar deti Nandini ”
He said seriously and it made bed laugh a little.

“ Achha leave all that mujhe ye batao ki Veer and Rashi ka kya chal raha hai ? ”
Manik asked taking a sip of his hot chocolate.

“ I saw them hugging each other, woh abhi Ghar pe hi honge mumma and dad ke saath. ”

“ Any progress ? ”

“ I guess I mean Rashi has kinda confirmed that she is ready for a relationship. She's finally over that good for nothing ex of hers. ”

They talked for some more time and then Nandini noticed Manik yawn.

“ Chalo let's go, it's late ”
He nodded and picked up his keys while Nandini took a moment to absorb what actually happened today.

Taking out her phone she clicked a picture of the whole setup.

“ And Arohi is busy yet again ! Wth is she doing ? ”
Nandini was now frustrated.

“ Oh I have zero clue about that ”

Silence fell, but it wasn't awkward. Thier were subtle smiles on both thier faces, Nandini and Manik had actually given a chance to each other. They could only prey for thier happily ever after now.

“ You didn't have to do that Arundhati! ”

“ Shut up Avinash, I know what to do. Stop trying to turn all bossy on me. I'm not your wife. ”
Arundhati spat as she continued typing on her laptop.

“ Kuchh to socho, Nandini will hate you. ”
Avinash, her brother replied.

“ I don't care, let her hate me. Mujhe woh chahiye jo mera hai ”

She replied with venom in her tone.

“ I loved our date ”
Nandini said entering into thier room and Manik smiled locking the door.

“ I'm going to Sydney next week ”
Nandini suddenly said and Manik frowned and turned to look at her.

“ Kaam se jana pad raha hai, two week stay hai. I was wondering if you want to come along ?! I've talked to Rashi. Tumhara schedule flexible hai for this month......so what's say ? ”
