" It's Complicated " (Completed)

PART 26

Nandini and Harshad came and were seating in the reserved seats in the front row of the stage and found Manik missing. Nandini became worried and asked them in gesture about him.

In that mean time her cell beeped and she opened her inbox to get a msg

" Emergency. Come over backstage now. "

She became more worried and excused herself from Harshad and rushed towards the backstage .

*****

She was running and continuously calling
him. She was passing through a room when one pair of strong arm pulled her inside the room.
She scared and about to cry for a help but she was sushed by a hand palm against her mouth.

"It's me. Chill. " this voice gave her back her sense and she was relieved.

" Manik...you idiot " she retorted as soon as he freed her mouth.
" Is everything all right? Emergency !! Sab thik hai na ? Are you okay? "
she started checking him being worried.

" Shhh... " he cupped her face in his arms and said " yes I am perfectly okay. "

She was looking at his eyes . His eyes were saying that he was okay but yet something was troubling him. But that
time only anger got priority and she hit his stomach

" you fool...You brainless fellow... You hell the scare out of me. Do you even realize how much scared I was getting your Emergency msg? I thought
... I thought you were not fine. kuch ho gaya tumhe. "

she was shivering in fear.

" yes Hua toh hai. I am not fine. And how Could I be? You didn't wish me only and left with that jerk. "
Manik childishly complaint.

Nandini didn't find any word to say. She was dumbstruck with his words. All she could did was
" Maaanikkk " with a deep
frustrating sigh.

" what Manik ?" He sheepishly said.

" you have a show to conduct. You have to perform. Your fans and friends are waiting for you. And here you are doing these cheesy tricks. "
she was hell irritated.

" Ms. Nandini Moorthy .. I know I have to perform. But you tell me how will I perform without my luck wish? If you would have wished me then now I would
be at stage . But you would not. And I can't perform without my lucky charm so I had to trick. "

Manik genuinely replied.
Nandini smiled and said
" you are impossible Manik Malhotra. " she hugged
him.

" That I know " he happily hugged her back .

" I am now really worried who's gonna deal with your these tantrums after me?
Koun jhelega tumhare Yeh Sab manmani? "

Manik broke the hug and said
" I didn't show these tantrums to anyone but you. As I know only you have that right to see
my these tantrums. And I am sure you will always keep on bear my manmani "

saying he he kissed her temple and turned to walk out.

" Manik " Nandini called him back.
He turned. She came forward and said
" All the very best My Rock Star. "

" The luck is all mine till you are mine. "

Saying he kissed her forehead and left for the stage.

Performance time

Fab 5 started playing their instruments...
Manik strummed his guitar and started singing closing his eyes...

Ooo...

Meri har man maani bas tum tak
Baatein bachkaani bas tum tak..

Manik opened his eyes and as per strong wish his eyes scanned Nandini among that huge crowd.

Meri nazar deewani bas tum tak
Mere sukh-dukh aate jaate saare-
Tum tak, tum tak, tum tak, sohne yar!
Tum tak, tum tak, tum tak, sohne yar!
Tum tak tum tak arzi meri
Phir aage jo marzi
Tum tak tum tak arzi meri
Phir teri jo marzi meri
Har dushwaari bas tum tak
Meri har hoshiyaari bas tum tak
Meri har taiyari bas tum tak
Tum tak, tum tak, tum tak, tum tak
Meri ishq khumaari bas tum tak...
Aaa...
Tum tak, tum tak, tum tak, sone yar!
Tum tak, tum tak, tum tak, sone yar!

Manik sang the entire song looking at Her and she felt so happy with that love he had for her. And she knew that it was
For only her.

They loved each other too much. but yet they were not together as their Relationship...
