He left her room way before she could him out and not to make her feel awkward.
She woke up around 10 in the morning with full bladder and croggy headache.
She found phenacetin and room service had left a tray full of breakfast and lemonade.
She took the tablet and went in the urge to loo.
He headed down to meet the jerk, Dave.
He found him in the buffet.
"Dare hurt her again. You will have to go thru me" He spoke with no correlation to a complete stranger.
He clearly understood whom he was talking about. Dave wasn't that stupid to have cleared Stanford school.
"Who the fuck are you to warn me, are you her father?"
He smirked at his old age. And left him baffled for even picking a fight with the idiot in the first place.
She had somehow battled her hangover and finally ended up listening to few lectures in the morning.
She hadn't seen Manik in the entire morning. She actually didn't wanna see him either to avoid further drama.
But as God knows evrything about them screamed drama.
When she went to eat at the restaurant she found Dave. She just avoided him completely and sat at a booth table.
When he came by her side. He said..
"You made pretty clear that nothing can happen between us. What the fuck was that sending a bodyguard or your old uncle to talk to me. Grow up Nandini. We were way past those issues, anyways adios" He bid her adieu.
Her emotions new no bound.
"Did the Lil fucker just call my Manik uncle" is what was running in her brain.
She just left her food cold and went on a spree to find Manik.
She was jumping hoops literally. And finally found him near lobby talking over phone. She just pulled him with no warning as usual and he even might have figured it with the timing.
Both huddled up in the emergency exit way.
"Did you talk to Tht jerk for me?"
He just excused himself from phone and looked at her.
He was puzzled to even answer for that question.
"Answer me." She started crying outta nowhere
That really shook him out.
"Yeah I did. I just wanted to make him realise next time he dare hurt you he would have to pay for it."
She hugged him tight. Maybe the thought that he talked to that jerk for him felt so comfortable for her.
She moved herself from him
"Don't do that next time".She said punching his arms.
"I dont appreciate ppl calling you names. I can't stand that. Even if its that stupid jerk. I still can't bear" She muttered.
He smiled at her for being offended because some idiot called him old.
"It's okay Plum. I am old. Accept it." He started wiping her Tears and smiled at him
"No you are not! And shut up!" She said and hugged him for few more seconds before letting go.
She ran away from him.
From a distance she shouted," still you arent forgiven by the way " She smiled and gave him a flying kiss.
He laughed at her kiddish behavior and wondered how crazy life would be with her.
He headed back to his room to continue with his phone call.
