~ Live without pretending,
Love without depending,
Listen without defending,
Speak without offending!~

As she entered the house, she stood dumbstruck. No words could define her surprise, shock would be a better word. For there stood a complete wall covered with pictures- her pictures.

A smiling Nandini, a giggling Nandini, sad Nandini, lost Nandini, guilty Nandini , blushing Nandini- it had every emotion of her beautifully captured in the frame. The center was a huge picture of Manik and Nandini together.

She herself did not know her face could depict such variety of emotions that the wall was showing. Further the moments were apt and she was wonderstruck at the beauty. Really was it umm,her? She could look so beautiful? She was seriously under shock when she heard the best music of her life- his voice, mixed with his favorite guitar's melodious tune.

Hua h aaj pehli baar jo aisa muskuraya hun,
Tumhe dekha toh Jana yeh ki kyu duniya me aaya hun!
Ye jaan lekar k jaan meri tumhe jeene mai aaya hun,
Mai tumse ishq karne ki izazat rub se laaya hun!

Nandini was once again mesmerized by the voice of the handsome hunk coming from the side room tuning his guitar, flashing his ever charming smile at her, not that he needed to, because she was already head over heels for him, either way. Manik sang the next lines, indicating towards her and she knew he meant every word of the song.

Zameen se aasman tak hum dhoond aaye zahan sara,
Bana paya nhi ab tak khuda tum se koi pyaara!

Manik repeated the lines coming towrads her and circled around her tuning again. Overwhelmed by his efforts, Nandini picked up the tune and continued the song, earning his heart felt smile from him.

Baaton me teri h badmashiyaan
Sab bewajah ki h taarifiyaan!

Manik nodded her head in disbelief looking at her how she denied every good thing about herself. He continued the song trying to tell her how much she meant to him.

Mai likh do aasman per ye ki padh lega zahaan sara,
Ki hoga na yha ab koi hum do sa dobara!
Mai duniya bhar ki taarifen tere sajde me laaya hu,
Mai tumse ishq karne ki izazat rab se laaya Hun! 💜

Manik circled around her again with the guitar melody enhancing the aura of the environment. He had this overwhelming urge to lay the world on her feet. He was ready to do any damn thing for the sake of one smile from her.

Tu h jo roobro mere bada mahfooz rhta hu,
Tere milne Ka shukrana khuda se roz karta hu!!
