Why doesn't anyone love me?

Chapter 7

"He is so precious" I said and cabir smiled, "thank you for being nice to him the first day because honestly I earned a brother and my sister earned a boyfriend" cabir teased and I laughed

"Maybe I do feel that for him, or maybe its something more" I said and navya smiled

"Its love nandini because if it wasn't you wouldn't behave like this, you care for him more than you care for anyone. And honestly its a good thing its about time you experience love and care" navya said smiling

"I dont want to hurt him navya, he is really precious to me, he is a part of my family. The only family I have known is you and cabir and now him. I cannot have any of you snatched from me becasue I end up doing some random shit in the heat of the moment" I explained ruffling his hair

"I know but nandini love comes with risks and fear, love isn't easy, it never will be. If its love it never goes away, its forever like your fireflies. If he really loves you which I know he does, then no matter what he will be here and the same goes for you" cabir said and I smiled

He was right, navya is right, jeez they are both right, I do love manik, I have since the first time he said my name, and I always will. I know im scared of hurting him but its that risk I have to take if I want him forever

"Okay stop lecturing me, I get it but let me work at my own pace with things" I said and they both nodded

"Im gonna say this and then im out" cabir said and that michevious look in his nice

"So I know you two live together and all but try and keep the sex down to a bare minimum, considering neither one of you are old enough" he said and I threw my phone at him

"You asshole" this made him giggle and navya laughed while I shook my head at these two idiots

I felt manik's grip tightened around my waist as he moved a bit shoving his face in my stomach

"There we go" cabir said and I looked at him confused, "he is gonna wake up soon", "and what"

"Nandu" I looked down and saw maniks eyes still closed, I caressed his forehead and cheeks, "hi handsome" I whispered and he smiled still eyes closed

He snuggled into me making me smile, "wakey wakey manik" cabir said and manik's eyes flung open, "no no no" hw whispered

"Whats wrong monkey" I asked, "please tell me that is not cabir", "it indeed is cabir mr malhotra" cabir said and manik sat up straight, eyes open like he never slept and I giggled

"No thats not true" manik said and cabir laughed confusing navya and I

"Im not saying anything but I dont mind it manik, I trust you and I think its high time" cabir said, "oh hello chal kya raha hai" I asked

"Nothing its boy talk" cabir said and I rolled my eyes

Manik's pov

shit shit shit how could I sleep like this infant of cabir, he is gonna tease me so much. He has been on me about my feelings for nandini, and about how he thinks I love nandini which I do but I dont want to tell her. What if she doesnt love me, I mean no one loves me but I would be heart broken if she said she doesnt feel the same way.

I would never leave her but I just umm I have never felt this way about anyone. I have never felt loved, I have never had someone who could make me happy with just one touch, but ever since nandini came in my life, I feel happy, I feel amazing. I dont want to ever lose that so I just wanna stay friend

"Are you okay now" nandini asked and I nodded, "thank you" I said. I dont have a migraine anymore, her hands are magic

"Open up" she said and I opened my mouth as she stuck the thermometer in my mouth to check my temperature, "aww baby looks so cute" cabir said taking pictures of me

"Stoppp" I mumbled and nandini glared at me, "shh" she said and a few minutes later she took the thermometer out and smiled a little, "all good cutie" she said tapping my head like a mother

She walked to the kitchen while I glared at cabir, "dude it was supposed to stay inside you cant do that infront of her" I said and navya smacked my head

"Owwww" I winced even thought it wasn't painful, "navya hands off him" nandini yelled from the kitchen and I stuck my tongue out at navya

"Dont be a dumbass and tell her you have these feeling for her" she said and I smiled, "one day" I whispered and she smiled

"Club tonight" navya asked and I nodded. She is obsessed with partying or more so dancing, she asks every Saturday and nandini and I have went once and all we did was talk while cabir and navya were you know all over each other

"Yayya im so excited" she said throwing her hands up, "why are you chirping like a bird" nandini said coming out of the kitchen with a tray

"Clubbing tonight" ,"ohhh hell no, he isnt feeling well" nandini said looking at me, "he is fine Haina manik" navya asked and I nodded but then nandini looked at me and I shook my head

"Stop scaring him, we are going and its final" navya said

"Also its not just normal clubbing, its the last Saturday of the month so the college is coming" cabir said and apparently there is a tradition in the college or something that every last Saturday the whole college gets a discount on drinks and food

"We will see" nandini said, "be there, its 5 so go get ready both of you" cabir said and I looked at the time, "its 3" I said and cabir smirked

"I need 2 hours with my girlfriend guys and then we have to get ready, oh before you two start thinking something dirty we just wanna nap" he said and I nodded my head

"Sure" I said and he laughed

They both left and asked us to be downstairs by 7, as soon as the door closed nandini sighed

"You okay" I asked and she nodded "why did you say yes, you dont feel well manik, there is no need to go" she said and I sat beside her

"Im okay it was just a migraine and thank you for giving me a massage and thank you for taking care of me" I said and she shook her head, "im not a nurse that you are thanking manik" this made me giggle

"You wanna nap too" I asked and she shook her head, "no I want to talk to you actually about a few things but I need you to be as calm and honest with me okay" she said and I nodded but I was scared, is she gonna leave me too

"Manik who is your mother" she asked and my heart sank, my stomach churned and I felt like I was going to throw up

"I I dont wanna talk about it" I whispered, "why" she questioned and I know its her right to question such things, she should know but I dont want to think about it

"Nandini please", "that's okay umm how about you and I watch tv then we can start getting ready" she offered and I nodded even though my Brian was preoccupied

We sat in the living room for the next 3 hours watching tv, well it was just for show I mean I was lost in my thoughts and nandini well she was observing me the whole time and I could tell her eyes were on me

"Manik go get ready" she said and I nodded. We both got ready and honestly nandini looked beautiful and hot shit manik you cant say that, stop thinking much

"You look beautiful" I said and she smiled, "thank you kind sir" she said bowing making me chuckle, "you dont look too bad yourself, you look handsome" she said making me smile

We got to the club, it was so crowed and the smell of alcohol bothered me a lot, I gripped nandini's hand tighter and she entwined my fingers with hers caressing my hand with her thumb. We sat down and I saw a few faces I didnt want to see such as soha and rose, but I was glad I sat beside nandini

"Mani baby no having drinks that I dont give you okay" she said and I nodded, "oh come on nandini he isnt a child" said rose and I frowned while nandini ignore her

"Ill have coke" I said when the waiter asked me and we were now talking but my head was still in my past

"Mani whats wrong" nandini whispered, "nothing" I said and before she could question further, a guy grabbed her arm pulling her to him
