Mananff-Forever Mine

Chapter 23

Hey people!

I just wanted to clear that the place Manik and Nandini are going for the trip is not Goa.

It is called Lavasa which is a small developing hill station near Pune.

So plz don't misunderstand it.

Nandini neatly kept the last set of clothes in her handbag. Still not sure whether to go for the weekend trip or not.

She had called Navya to ask what the trip will be about, and the type of clothes she should take. And that girl had been a great help. She not only helped Nandini regarding the information, but also took her for shopping along with Mukti and Alya. So, Nandini had dragged her best friend Tanu too. Just so to have moral support you know.

They didn't really shop anything. It was more like a girls day out. Roaming around the mall, they landed up in a shop where the girls forced Nandini to buy a swimwear, even though she refused saying she didn't know swimming.

Therefore, Nandini ended up buying a one piece swimsuit, which ended up till her mid thighs and had round cuts on both the sides of her waist, showing a nice amount of flesh but without demanding attention.

They rest of the girls also bought bikinis, including Tanu even though she didn't have any use of it.

But now as Nandini stood staring at her now packed bag, she didn't think going for the weekend was a great idea. Even though Tanu had assured her that if she wanted, Laksh, whom she calls her friend, and her would come to pick her up from Cabir's lake house anytime.

Taking a deep breath, she picked her band and left her room. It was just a simple trip with her friends, just like Navya said. What would go wrong anyway?

As she walked out of the building, she saw Manik uploading his own bag in the car.

Things had improved between them since the days they spent together with Mahi and Pihu. They could now at least talk with each other decently, without arguing. She could see them becoming friends again, like before. But there was one problem...

'Hey!' Manik gave his million dollar smile as she approached him. And that is the very problem!

'Hi. All set?'

'Yeah. We just have to pick Disha, one of our friends and meet at Cabir's place. And then we all can carry on.' He said as he got into the driving seat. Nandini followed him to the passenger seat.

'Okay.'

The journey from their house to Disha's was a quiet one. But as soon as Disha entered the back seat, she started her non stop rant and the journey to Cabirs' flew by.

They were fourteen people going in all. How were they all going to live in one house, Nandini had no idea.

As the car stopped outside Cabir's house, she saw more two cars waiting outside. Which meant, three cars were going to carry all fourteen of them.

Nandini stood outside uncomfortably as she saw the others loading their luggage in the other cars.

'Hi' she heard from behind her. Nandini turned around to find a boy looking down at her.

She smiled at him as she saw his face. He was good looking, not bad at all. He had black eyes black eyes and not Manik's deep chocolaty eyes that captivates her. He was almost as tall as Manik, but a bit thin. Manik was well built. His hair was well set but Manik's soft hair is the best. Nandu, now you are comparing everyone with Manik! Ughh.
