Chapter 17

Next Day...

Manik was working and didnt pay any attention to Nandini which she didnt like at all. So finally she decided she would make Manik come to her. Nandini smirked and leaned back on her chair until....

CRASH!

Nandini fell with a loud sound of the chair hitting the floor. "AAH!"

Everyone turned to see what happened. From his window, he saw Nandini fall and ran out.

"Nand- I mean Ms Murthy...tum thik ho?" Manik asked. Nandini wasnt hurt even in the slightest but she let the waterworks flow.

"My...My...Hand..."

"Dard ho raha hai?" Manik asked.

"Nandu yaar tu baithe baithe kaise gir gayi?" Vicky asked, he touched her arm in concern. Manik glared at his arm as if burning holes through them. 

"I think mujhe isse doctor ke paas le jaana chahiye." Manik brushed Vicky's arm off and helped Nandini up. Then he took her downstairs to his car. Nandini kept making sounds as if she was in pain while Manik drove. He glanced at her. "Nandini...kuch zyada over acting nahi ho raha hai?"

Nandini looked at him surprise. "What...matlab tumhe paata hai ki...main natak kar rahi hoon? Kaise?"

"You do realize mujhe mere window se tumhara desk saaf saaf dikhta hai. I saw you purposefully lean on the chair." Manik replied.

"Oh...oops." Nandini grinned sheepishly. "Wait...phir tum itne concerned kyun they? Aur mujhe doctor ke paas kyun le jaa rahe ho?"

"Concerned iss liya hoon kyunki jhoot moot hi sahi par tum kaafi zor se giri. I just wanted to be sure tumhe chot nahi lagi. And as for the doctor....kisne kaha hum waha actually jaa rahe hai?" Manik winked.

"Toh phir?"

"Well you wanted my attention na? Toh maine apna kaam khatam kar liya and I was thinking....ice cream date pe chale?" Manik said.

"Haan!" Nandini jumped excited. "Par...nahi."

"Kya?"

"I mean...mujhe kisi ice cream parlour mein nahi jaana. Roadside wali kulfi khaani hai." Nandini replied.

"Kya? Kyun? Usme aisa kya special hai?"

"Arre tumhe nahi paata...wahan ki kulfi bohot bohot bohot yummy hota hai. Main humesha Didu aur Navya ke saath Fridays pe jaati thi kulfi khaane aur uske baad hum ghar pe aake koi SRK wala romantic film dekhte they. Uske baad puri raat jaag ke hum boys ki baatein karte they." Nandini explained.

"Kya? Boys...kaunsa boys? Aur...just FYI madam...tum teeno ke teeno committed ho!" Manik got jealous.

"Haan toh main kaha aaj ya kal ki baat kar rahi hoon. PEHLE karte they...Jeej aur Didu ki shaadi se pehle. Tab hum dono bhi nahi mile aur Navya bhi Cabir Bhai ke saath nahi thi."

"Oh...ok then." 

"Toh chale?"

Manik reluctantly agreed. "Ok fine...chalo." 

"YES!!" Nandini cheered. Manik then continued driving not noticing that Pandit was following them in a car. "Stop stop stop! Woh raha! Yahi pe park karo, main leke aati hoon."

Manik parked his car on the other side of the road and Nandini got out. At that moment, Manik got a call from Abhi so he answered.

A: Manik...tu kaha hai?

M: Um....main....meeting ke liye aaya hoon.

A: Meeting? Par Vikram ne toh bataya tha ke tu Nandu ko doctor ke paas le gaya hai.
