Love you all my readers! Stay blessed!

Happy reading!!

“Nandini, umm..... Hi!! It good to see you with Manik!! Congrats!!” Alya's sayings were evident of hesitation while greeting Nandini!! “Thanks!!” Nandini couldn't help herself from ignoring Alya and Dhruv. She wanted them to leave the place but being Dhruv her cousin she couldn't do anything. And again here they go with the awkward silence. Manik was quite busy rolling his eyes every now and then at them, Mukti's hands were firmly held in Abhimanyu's hands, Cabir and Navya were exchanging glances repeatedly.

“Nandini I came to know about Bua and Raghav uncle just a week ago. Umm.... You're alright, right??” Dhruv remembered about Raghav and Sonia's death news and hence ended up asking Nandini about it. “Nandini don't you think that has been almost 3 months since amma and appa have left us, and this brother of yours is too early to inquire about that too you. Please ask him to duck these word games and leave us alone!!” Manik uttered in utter irritation while Nandini sighed.

“Dhruv he's right it's been long and having him by my side everything got sorted and here I'm all happy and strong!!” Nandini said in a tone that clearly indicated them to leave but they were too adamant to get the cue and walk out. “Nandini, this was supposed to be our first valentine and had to be the best but I'm sorry everything just got spoiled!!” again an indirect comment from Manik but they shrugged it off indifferently.

Nandini held Manik's hands eyeing him to stop while he gestured back a frustrated 'what'. “guys we're going to the food section!! Navya is hungry!!” Cabir said looking at Nandini and Mukti, without waiting for any reply he dragged Navya to the food section. “Nandini, I'll take a leave, I gotta introduce Abhi to my other colleagues. ” she too walked out with Abhimanyu and Nandini shook her head in disbelief.

“Wow, just wow! Perfect Destruction of mood!!” Manik muttered and finally getting him the Gatecrashers strolled out. “Manik what was that??” Nandini asked coming face to face with him. “What is what?” he shrugged, Nandini was about to stride out in anger but she collided with a hard rock chest back with a jerk!! “Manik chodo, I need some alone time, chodo, I'll come thodi der mei, please chodo!!” she tried freeing her hands but he didn't budge a bit! “Nandini all your time with me is alone time of yours because we are not different okay! You and me both need composure and you know that we find it in each other so stop fluttering like a dying fish! Please I need you!!” by the end he sounded so vulnerable that Nandini couldn't hold herself back from turning & hugging him tight!! He wrapped his hands around her neck completely and her hands creeped through his back!! Closure!!
Tranquility!!

They were at the lounge which was dark and secluded and hence were out of everybody's sight. “Manik??” “Hmm??” “Chodo naa!!” “Please? This is so good!!” “Mr Malhotra please let me go so that I can go and have a dance with my handsome husband!! He must be waiting for me” she said she he immediately pulled out. “You find me handsome haa??” he pulled her into him by her waist while her hands rested on his chest! “When did I say that you're handsome?? I was talking about my husband!!” she encircled her hands around his neck. “What are you upto Mrs Malhotra?! You're husband must be around!!” he teased in a husky voice!! “Arre it's okay you are much more comfortable so I'll handle him!!” she teased back and he crunched his nose in annoyance! “Strange yaar! I'm jealous of myself!!” he nagged and she giggled. “I love you!!” her confession was followed by a sweet peck on his cheeks! “I love you more!!” he kissed her forehead in return and then they joined their foreheads, closing their eyes as well.

Manik and Nandini moved to the dance floor as soon as the host announced for the couple dance.

Dekha hazaro dafa aapko
Phir bekarari kaisi hai
Sambhale sambhalta nahi yeh dil
Kuch pyaar mein baat aisi hai

Manik sang surprising Nandini who actually had never heard him singining. Though she knew he also sings but she never pushed him to sing for her due to obvious reasons. Manik had planned this intentionally for Nandini, he had decided to let go of the reason for him for not singing and make her the reason for reviving music in his life. The fab 5 members who were surprised to hear the same voice came running to see and what they saw drew a beautiful smile over their faces. Manik's hands were around Nandini's waist while hers rested on his chest and both gently swayed to the music. Manik had his wireless mike put up through which he was singing!

Lekar ijazat ab aap se
Saansein yeh aati jati hain
Dhoondhe se milte nahi hai hum
Bas aap hi aap baki hain

Nandini continued expressing her condition on meeting him. He smiled at her listening to the lyrics. He entwined one of his hands with hers while the other stayed intact,her hands steadily glided to his shoulder and leaving it there. They took bigger steps to and fro for a couple of times and resumed back with the same old pace. He planted a kiss on her cheeks to which she turned red.

Pal bhar na doori sahe aap se
Betabiyan yeh kuch aur hain

She left his shoulders and hands and was about to leave out of shyness when he pulled her back to him, back-hugging her. She looked into his eyes in the same posture which said the same as the lines he sang.

Hum door ho ke bhi paas hain
Nazdeekiyan yeh kuch aur hain
Dekha hazaro dafaa aapko
Phir bekarari kaisi hai
Sambhale sambhalta nahi ye dil
Kuch pyar mein baat aisi hai

She sang replying to his lines Meaning that no distance matters instead it was an own kind of link between them. He nodded and sang further the same lines. She sang the last two lines facing him, snaking her hands around his neck and he again held her by her waist.

Aagosh mein hain jo aapki
Aisa sukun aur paaye kahaan
Aankhein hamein raas aa gayi
Ab hum yahaan se jaaye kahan

Breaking the contact he held her right hand and twirled her around. As she came back to the mean posture she sang about the captivation of his eyes that always held her to him. He could do nothing but grin wider and plant a feather kiss on her hairs to which she closed her eyes in contentment.

Dekha hazaron dafa aapko
Phir bekarari kaisi hai
Sambhale sambhalta nahi ye dil
Kuch pyaar mein baat aisi hai

They both sang one after the other the title lines. By now the outer world was a long forgotten story and the only thing which mattered was each other to them.

Phir bekarari kaisi hai
Kuch pyaar mein baat aisi hai

Manik ended the song almost whispering to her which sounded husky due to the mike to everyone. Nandini smiled at him as the music ended, switching off the mike she awarded him with a peck on his cheeks muttering “I love you hubby! Wishing you my best valentine's day ever!!’
“More!! Wish you the same love!!”

Precap: Stay tuned😉😉
