For Infinity

Part 7: His Star.

She was the prettiest hell I have ever been in..I didn't mind burning at all..

Location: S.P.A.C.E
When Manik Malhotra decides something nobody in the world can stop him. Today Harshad was going to face the most dreadful day of his life. Completely unaware of what was coming his way Harshad happily entered the college premises. He was proud of himself for carrying out that horrendous act yesterday. Well, his happiness was going to get converted into his biggest nightmare in no matter of time. He was walking with all his pride when a strong hand held him by his shoulder. We all know who it was.
"Harshad Harshad Harshad tch tch tch.. Bohot khush lag raha hain tu? Lagta hain ladkiyon ko tang karne main bada maza aaya tujhe kal?"
Sweat beads had already formed on his forehead. He was a big coward and Manik was well aware of that.
"Kaa ka kya bol raha hain tu? Ju just cut this crap and lemme go!" He stammered while saying this.
"Oh oh oh! You're so innocent man. Tu toh kabhi galat kar he nahi Sakta right?! Chal I'll remind you of your wrong doings!" Saying this Manik gave him a huge blow on his face which made him fall on the ground. It reminded him of the same ordeal Nandini had went through when he had slapped her. He was hell scared now. It was his end. Manik picked him up by his collars and spat angrily on his face. "How dare you touch my girls?! How dare you? You have committed the biggest mistake of your life you jerk. Nobody has the fucking right to mess with them! Today I'm going to teach you a lesson after which you'll never ever dare to look at any other girl!" He beat him mercilessly. Nandini's and Mukti's scared faces were flashing in his mind. Especially that cut on her lips. Even though it was a newfound love,it was pure as a pearl. It wasn't any time pass for him. He had accepted her as his girl with all his heart.
Manik's anger knew no bounds. It was impossible to stop him. But somebody had to control him before he could kill Harshad.
"Manik kya kar raha hain tu? He will die! Chod usse bro!" Cabir tried his level best but he failed. Somebody had called him informing about the situation. He had now lost all hopes of him stopping because he knew his temper very well.
"Manik! Please let him go! He's not worth it. I don't want you to get into any trouble. Please?" A soft voice fell on his hears. It was Nandini's,which was enough to melt his anger. The guy who could not be controlled by his best friend stopped on her one request. The monster inside him needed to hear her angelic voice. Manik turned to look at her. She was looking beautiful as always. Her eyes were pleading him to calm down. Our Majnu Manik needed nothing else. He walked towards her and just kept staring at her flawless face.
"Manik if you behave like him then what will be the difference between you both? You're a good person so just leave it." Her words brought him out of the trance. He just smiled at her care and replied "Just for you. Just this time." He threw the rustication papers on his face and ordered him to leave at once. It wasn't a hard task for him being the trustee's son. Harshad was so scared that he left without uttering a word.
Nandini sighed a breathe of relief. There was no doubt that she too had feelings for him. But she hadn't accepted it yet. Manik was happy seeing her smile. It gave him peace. He took her face in his hands and kissed her forehead. Their hearts were at content.
But there was someone who was shocked seeing all this. Cabir couldn't believe his eyes. His best friend who never bowed down in front of anyone had put down his ego for this girl. But above all he was happy. He knew Nandini was a perfect girl for him. She could be his star and fight all the darkness for him. Before that,he had to take this love story to a next level. It was his time to become their cupid.
