We ate and I grabbed my bag from my dorm while Manik was grabbing his guitar and stuff he needs.
I locked up my dorm and turned around walking to manik's dorm putting my keys away
"Ahhh I'm sorry" I said running into someone
"It's okay princess, just be careful" I heard Manik's voice
He grabbed my hand and we started walking to the cafe where his friends were meeting him.
"How long is your shift" he asked
"8 hours" I said and he shook his head
"Princess thats a lot, why so long" he asked
"I need to buy food na" I said and he stopped in his tracks
"What" he asked
"No I mean I work so I can afford my expenses" I said walking with him
"I thought you got full scholarship" he said
"I did"
"So your dorm, and classes are taken care of right" he asked and I nodded
"Nandini what aren't you telling me" he asked
"Umm I don't have anything Manik" I whispered looking down
"What do you mean"
"Look here we are" I said when we stepped inside the cafe
"Princess"
"Ill tell you later tonight okay" he nodded
He leaned down and kissed my head, there is something about his kisses, every time he kisses my head I feel safe and protected.
"Have an amazing shift darling, we can talk about this tonight okay" I nodded
"Wait" I said seeing he was about to turn around to walk to his friends
"Yes" he said turning to me
"Come here na" I said and he looked confused but leaned down a bit
I got on my tippy toes and pressed my lips to his cheek.
"Have a wonderful day" I whispered
"Bye princess"
"Bye bye" I said walking to the back door where my apron is
I stopped at the door and turned back and found manik looking at me, I smiled and waved bye to him and so did he.
"Hi Nandini" aunty said as soon as I walked in
"Hi aunty"
"How are you?, how was the trip?" She asked
"Super good, I loved it"
"You are falling in love my child" she said and I coughed a little hearing her
"What" I asked catching my breath
"That look that people have when they are falling in love, that exact look is o your face. This trip definitely changed things for you didn't it" she asked
I didn't know what to say because she wasn't wrong, so I jsut slightly nodded. She walked closer to me and put her hand on my head
"Bless you my child" she said and I smiled
"Get to work missy" she said making me giggle
I put on my apron and walked to the register to start working.
"Hey Choti" I heard bhai making me look up from the register
"Hi bhai"
"Ill get my usual, umm and a cheese croissant" I nodded getting his order
"Ill get a chocolate milkshake" druv said
"Umm do you have anything dairy free, low fat, healthy no calories" alia asked
"Water" I asked and they all bursted out laughing while she was fuming
"A oat milk vanilla latte" she said gritting her teeth
"Ill get a Vanilla milkshake nandu" mukti said and I smiled
"Manik tu ni lega" Bhai teased
"Seriously man grow up" he said
"Grow up" bhai mimicked
"I will get a coffee milkshake princess" he said and I smiled
They all paid while I made their drinks, I made a little smiley face on all their cups except maniks. I made a little red heart on his cup.
"Here you guys go" I said giving them all their drinks
"Thank you Nandini" mukti and bhai said
"Thanks baby" he said and I smiled
"Oye yeh baby princess bad man, let her have some time away from an idiot like you. She will lose her mind if she stays with you all the time" bhai said making me giggle and earning a smack from manik
"Bhai sea ni hai" I said
"Ohhhh my goshhhhh Choti you are defending this asshole" he said all dramatically
"Bhai" I said and he chuckled
"Fine I wont tease you or him" I smiled hearing this
I saw some customers walking in so I moved tot he register and manik glanced at me making me look at him, he winked at me making me blush
"Hi how are you" I asked the customer
"Good, can we get 2 iced latte, one with vanilla one with hazelnut"
"Of course" I said
When I gave them their drink, I saw fab 5 leaving the cafe making me sad.
I don't know why but I like being in his presence, I feel safe when I know that he is around me. I sighed and continued working, I got a break and sat at the back.
'How are you doing princess' I saw a text from manik
'Hi, I am good. just a bit tired. How is your jamming' I said
Within a few sounds I saw the three little bubbles, damn he is quick
'It's going okay, I miss you tho!!! When do you get off'
'In 2 hours' I said
'Okay, did you eat something' he asked
'I am s till full' I texted
'Princess you have to eat'
'I will, I am gonna get back, my break is over'
'Be safe' he texted
I put my phone back in the locker and got back to work. Once it was closing time, aunty did the cash stuff while I cleaned up a little where the machines were and then put the chairs up
"Lets go" she said seeing everything is set for the morning person.
I grabbed my stuff and we existed the cafe.
"Should I walk with you" she asked and I shook my head
"No its okay, thank you for offering. Goodnight aunty" she said and she wished me back
