--Manik--
Wait, nerd?? but why?? Cabir asked.
Yeah, listen, if we participate together, we both will fail. that's why I'm gonna participate with her, she will finish our project all by herself and I'll be passed without any effort, isn't it a good idea, I explained.
Yeah, it is, but what about me?? In that case, I'll be failed, Cabir said.
so sad, Cabir, why don't you study a little bit, I joked.
Seriously, you can't leave your best friend like this, he faked crying.
sorry, who are you?? I guess I have seen you somewhere, I said and laughed.
Manik, God will punish you for this, I wish you fail the project, he shouted.
Hey nerd?? I said.
what?? She asked.
you see, your Abhi will do this project with Mukti and there will be no one here to finish the project with you but you got the privilege because I, Manik Malhotra, decided to be your partner in this project, I said with full of confidence.
no thanks, she replied.
Wait, didn't you hear?? it's a group project you have to choose a partner. I mean even if you do the project better than everyone, you will fail without a partner and I know you don't have a single friend here, so don't be egoistic and write my name with you in the project, simple, isn't it, I said while clutching her hand.
First of all, I'm not going to do the project with you, second, people will come here to choose me if they want to pass just like you, but you think about yourself no one gonna choose an ignorant to fail the project, she said while smiling.
Oh really!! I'm Manik, girls will be dying to do the project with me, I said confidently.
Yeah, girls like Rose, but if you choose them, you too will fail just like them, you see, To pass the exam it is not necessary to be handsome but it is necessary to be smart, she said with a smile.
It's your misunderstanding nerd, no one gonna choose you, I said.
Nandini, will you do the project with me, some boy asked.
no, she can't, because she already has chosen me, I gave him a death glare and he ran off saying sorry.
why did you say that?? She shouted.
Because I already said that I'm gonna be your partner no one else can choose you, I said.
no, Mr Manik, you are wrong, whatever happens, I'm not going to choose you, she said with a smile.
We'll see, I replied.
--Abhi--
why are you staring at me, I'm not going to choose you, I said.
why?? I'm your girlfriend, she replied.
Can you please stop saying this, I said.
no, I can't, she smiled.
I can't choose you, ma'am, as you are already a senior, I mocked.
I'll ask Nandu, I said.
Nandu?? Her name is Nandini ok, and you can't choose her, she ordered.
And I'm your girlfriend, why don't you give me a cute name as well, she demanded.
Girlfriend?? I told you to stop this, and didn't you ask me to call you ma'am, I said.
We were not a couple then, she replied.
We are not a couple, leave it, I'm going, I said.
Listen, she grabbed my hand and said, I'm your partner ok, and if you choose anyone else, I'll kill that person, she said.
I won't choose you, I said.
Fine, let's see then, who chooses you and risks his life, she said with a smirk.

--Manik--
it's not like she rejects me, you see I'm Manik, and so many girls want to be my partner that's why she is just nervous to say yes, I said.
wait, I didn't get it, why would she be nervous, Cabir asked.
of course, you didn't get it because it takes the brain to understand things, I replied.
So, as expected Nandini didn't choose you, Dhruv said while laughing.
it's not like this buddy, I told you she is nervous and she even called me handsome, ok, I know she will choose me at last, I replied.
Nandini said you are handsome, I doubt, Aliya said.
Stop lying Manik, it's fine if she rejects you, it's not like she rejects your love proposal, Cabir said.
Hahaha Cabir, why would I propose to her, and Aliya seriously you too. if Mukti were here, she would take my side, I said.
Manik, why don't you talk to her, Dhruv asked.
She also can talk, I replied.
Fine, here is she, Aliya said and I turned to see her. God, I miss her so much.
I'm leaving bye guys, I said.
you are not going anywhere, Cabir locked the door.
Cabir, open the door, I said trying to be angry.
Shut up!!! Manik, she shouted.
Hey, why are you shouting if you are here to apologize, then do that properly, I shouted.
Who said that I'm here to apologize, she said with a smirk and punched me right on my stomach.
Ahh, what?? are you crazy??, I shouted.
Yes, I am, she said and put her hand around my neck and made me watch the ground and started hitting me.
Hey, Mukti, stop it will you, guys stop laughing and help me, God I missed her beating as well.
how dare you made me cry huh!!! She said with her last slap on my head.
So what?? even I cried, I said. and missed you, I murmured.
I missed you too, she said while hugging me.
Do you have any idea, they all teamed up against me while you weren't here, I complained.
Really, did they?? She said while staring at them.
they also deserve beating, she said and we attacked.
Yeah, stop it guys, Dhruv said while laughing after some time.
I missed this so much, I said and we hugged.
I even missed our group hug, I said.
Now, Stop it Manik, they all shouted and we started laughing.
****
Wait, it means you both ordered them to be your partner, Cabir said when we shared what happened earlier.
God, you guys are so alike, Aliya said.
But, I guess, in that case, nerd and topper will be partners, Cabir said.
no, they will not, I and Mukti shouted.
I said that you both are alike, Aliya said again.
Look, I've already decided she will be my partner so she will be mine, I said.
And about Abhi, I still opposed the idea of yours liking him, I said to Mukti.
it's okay, I know you care about me but I also know that you will like him, she replied.that's it for the chapter.
Thank you very much.
Always be happy.
