The mall is packed today for some reason, it seems like everyone picked today to come here, it took me 15 minutes to find parking

"Be careful with the doors" I tell both Cabir and Nandini because they both are kids

"Whoopssss" Nandini mumbles trying to open her door but failing

"Okay no, stop it" I say getting out of the car

I walk to Nandini's door and open it for her making sure I don't bang my car door.

"Oh thank you kind giraffe" she giggles getting out of the car

I keep forgetting how tiny this girl is, she isn't even half my height.

"No no I do not want to get in that" she says stopping

"In what?" Cabir asks

"That ele" she says pointing at the elevator

Oh my god, someone needs to take a gun and shoot me, literally shoot me.

"Why not?"

"It's going to close and then it will get stuck, I will take the stairs" she says

"Get her to get in the elevator" I groan

"Nandini come on, it won't get stuck plus if it does you and I can have a picnic and torture manik"

She giggles nodding happily

"The fuck man?" I whisper to him

"She won't go in and I dont' wanna walk up the stairs so shh" he whispers back

We walk in the elevator, and as soon as the elevator moves she grabs my arm squeezing it to the best of her ability, it didn't hurt even one bit but it looked like she was trying her best to kill the circulation

"Manikkkkkkk" she mumbles swinging my arm a little when we get off the elevator

"What?"

"Woahh it's like talking to a wall but guess what? Walls are god damn nicer" she says leaving my arm and going to Cabir

If my mum didn't like her, if Cabir and her didn't get along or if my girlfriend wasn't her sister, I'd never see her again, ever.

The next few hours Cabir and her bought a whole bunch of things while I just followed them around, it was painful but I got through it.

"She is utterly quiet" Cabir says turning his head to look in the back seat

i look up in the rear view mirror and find her a sleep holding onto a chocolate bar, a child

"She is adorable"

"She isn't" I comment

"You are into chicks that wear more makeup then they can hold in both their hands so no you don't know what being cute means plus why did you even like veebha?" He asks

He always asks me this question all the time and I never know how to answer it I guess

"She is that little escape for me I guess" I mumble

"An escape?"

"Yeah, like when I am pissed with something I got to her"

"And how does she calm you down?"

"We just kind of talk about other things"

"Manik that's not an escape plus I hope you know she isn't the best girl, she may be Nandini's cousin but she isn't the kind of girl you'd want to spend a long time with"

"Don't be philosophical Cabir, and it's not like you stay with people forever"

"Really? Because I think our parents have done a great job at showing us what love actually means"
