Manan - Hold My Hand

Chapter 53

"Anyone wants to explain to us?",Cabir asked raising his eyebrow.

Manik and Nandini glanced at each other. She nudged him a little to speak up.

Manik cleared his throat and saw the four pair of eyes on them.

"I...We have something to explain..",Manik started avoiding their eyes as he grabbed Nandini's hand from the side.

"Are you going to speak anytime soon?",Mukti asked crossing her arms staring at the two of them.

Manik nodded with a sigh sharing a look with Nandini.

"We are together.",He said at once and looked at their expressions.

"We all are together here Manik. What do you mean?",Navya asked him raising an eyebrow.

Nandini glanced at Navya and saw her trying to hide a smile and realised they are playing with them and relaxed a little.

"Uhh..I mean together together. I guess you can say we are dating now.",Manik tried to explain looking at Nandini for help but she shrugged innocently.

" You guess?",Cabir asked him raising an eyebrow.

" No I mean we are.",Manik corrected himself and found them staring at him hard.

"Did you ask her out?",Mukti questioned and Manik tried to think about it.

"I think so.",Manik said wondering if asking her we can try it out is similar to asking her to be his girlfriend.

"You think?",Navya asked this time.

"No I mean Yes.",Manik said irritated a little.

"Did you ask her to be your girlfriend?",Mukti asked specifically and Nandini smiled raising an eyebrow at Manik.

"Uhh no.",Manik said rubbing the back of his neck.

"Then how do you think you are together?",Navya asked narrowing her eyes at him.

" Uhh huh because we are.",Manik said with a shrug.

" And did you tell us before getting together with her?",Cabir asked him and Mukti nodded in his support.

" Huh?",he asked confused.

" I came to you and talked with the two of you before asking Navya to be my girlfriend. Did you tell any of us?",Cabir asked glaring at him and Mukti joined him.

Manik nudged Nandini's side to help him out but she shrugged again making him glare at her.

" And you?",Navya said glancing at Nandini making her seat straight as she stared at her.

"Did you tell me about this?",Navya asked glaring at her and Nandini gulped a little getting serious.

"It just happened.",Manik tried to explain and they still kept staring at the two of them.

"So you both are dating now?",Mukti asked the two of them and they shared a look with each other and bobbled their head.

" You both are sure of it?",Cabir asked them firmly and they nodded.

" You sure you both don't need a day or two to think about it.",Mukti asked them and they looked at each other confused.

" Yes even I think you both should take a day or two.",Cabir supported her making them more confused.

Before Manik could ask about it. Navya slapped his arms.

" Stop cheating and pay up both of you.",Navya said smiling at the two of them excited.
