WITH ME (MANAN)

II

As Nandini and Manik had a long journey to cover to cover, so they thought of knowing each other more.

Manik : Nandu let's play 20 questions. I am sure we both are bored and we will also get to know each other.

Nandini agreed to Manik as she was more excited to know more about him. Manik started asking first,                                                                                                                                             Manik : Your favorite color ?

Nandini : Blue and yours ?

Manik : Red 

In between the game, Nandini asked about how he manages his both the careers at the same time and told him about her admiration to his work.

Like that they got to know some things about each other, their likes and dislikes and even shared their numbers. Both of them know their surnames respectively but Nandini knew he was the son of Raj and Neyonika as it had come in a magazine and as her father is also into business, he would remarked his names. As they are planning to try a joint venture with the Malhotras. But Manik had no clue that she was Nandini Murty the princess of Raman and Ishita Murty as he thought that she would be a spoiled brat and Nandini having the same surname might be a coincidence. 

While talking randomly Manik asked her,                                 Manik : Nandu you told he that you work in Bangalore so what do you do there?

Nandini : Mani, I have my own interior designing company Ishra.

Manik : Ishra!!!! Oh my God are you The NM ?

Manik was always updated with the young talented people trying to make a name in the bidg world and NM was one who had taken his interest. As their was no personal information and her not attending the business parties. 

Nandini just nodded her head because she has not attended any business parties with her family as she doesn't like limelight and the world knows her as NM because that's how she's called in her field. Nandini tries her maximum to avoid business parties even after being an accomplished interior designer. She sends her personal assistant and she only attends the party of her important clients in Bangalore. 

Manik : I have heard a lot about your company but haven't got a chance to meet and finally, you graced your presence.(the last line with a tease)

Nandini : I never liked the paparazzi.(with a irritated pout)

Manik (chuckled and asking with curiosity) : Why did you name your company as Ishra?

Nandini : This name had the starting letters of my parents name whom I love the most.

And Nandini started talking about how her parents bicker about everything and about their love. Manik adored her love for her parents.(She not for once mentioned their names, even when she was talking to Manik about her parents she only addressed them as Appa and Amma.)

Manik : And what are you doing in Mumbai ?

Nandini : Ohh.... I have a meeting with an important client and if I get selected then I will be staying here. So thought why not to shift Ishra over here.

She was on the way to Mumbai to attend an important meeting as the clients have called various well known interior designers for their new venture, which was an opening of a NGO by the Senior Malhotra for his lady love, Neyonika Malhotra. Nandini knew that she was going to have a meeting with the Malhotras but she never thought that Manik will also be joining as he was having a shoot. So she thought that he wouldn't make it for the meeting. She didn't tell Manik about her visit to Malhotra Industry as she wanted to see his reaction. Whereas Manik had no clue that they were going to have a meeting with the interior designers because he only knows that he has to attend the meeting.

Manik : You will get selected....So if you need any help you can contact me.

Nandini nodded to do so. It was time for dinner, they had their food from a hotel and both of them messaged their parents about their whereabouts and drifted to sleep. As they will reach by early morning.
