I want you back (manan)

Night encounter

If you wanna hold her hand ,
Hold it tight
And never let her go
But only if she agrees.

Nandini's pov

"Ma'am we are all ready to start the meeting , let's move ahead" the sound of me typing the keyboard stopped when the voice broke my concentration , moving my eyes from the laptop screen I saw Neha waiting for my reply, nodding a yes I closed the laptop and carried it with me along with my mobile.

Indeed the trip was the best part of my life which I can Cherish till my last breath , it's been exactly one week we all returned from London. Things are normal between all of us , Amma Appa stayed with me for two -three days on my place , I saw a different spark in Appa's eyes when I hold his hand and bring him to my home with my hard earned money . Along with Amma and Appa , manik also came to meet them once or twice may be ,   but I maintained distance between us specially when he threaten me for taking revenge for sneaking in his room , in his bed and in his arms. I still remember each second of the morning how I managed to came out of his hold when he caged me in his arms, that was something to be worth remembering , just imagining the scene make my cheeks turning into deep shead of red.

"She is Mrs prakash , ma'am " Neha's voice bring me back in present and I shook my hands with the young lady. After a brief introduction of her and what she wants for her home we discussed each small things we needed to work upon.

In between our conversation my mobile buzzed , ignoring it I continued with my meeting . After a few minutes the buzzing sound stopped giving me a big relief.

When the colour of sky change into darkness I didn't realize , picking up all my belongings I moved out of my office , settling myself on passenger seat asking the driver to take me home.

"Aaru??" My voice echoed in the living room but I got no response , the whole house was dark , I hardly can see anything moving my hand on the air I searched for something or someone , "Aaru??" My voice was betraying myself , Don't know when his fear became my fear and his happiness my motive , there was a time when I saw a scared manik whenever he faced darkness at that time I was the one close to him holding his hand being him out of darkness but in-between all this I lost the track when the darkness hold my hand and made me his prey. "Aaru if it's your some plan to scare mumma na then you are going to have a big punishment I m telling you " giving a full stop to my negative thoughts I again shouted but this time my hands touched something on the wall , may be a switch ? But then my subconscious mocked me because the switches of my house where not on so high  , for getting a clear view I moved close to the wall and again touched it , okk it was like a switch only,  a pointed one suddenly a hot air pass through my hands and I moved my hand back from where it was before.
That scared the shitt out of me , I moved back wards.

"Guard!!!! " I shouted out of fear when suddenly the lights came back , and what I saw next make me furious , here standing the Manik Malhotra having a devilish smirk over his face like he won some gold medal for scaring his wife like a manic.

"N- N for nose " he said and my forehead which was sometime back was covered with sweat are now having frowns.

"What ??" I asked being clueless that why suddenly he is teaching me Alphabets.

"Nose , which you were going to push for switching the lights on. " He said and I mentally face palmed myself for being such an idiot and making a fool in front of him.

" That's doesn't matter what I was going to push or pull , now tell me what are you doing here in my house ?? " I asked with full authority and questioned him but rather than answering me he take few steps towards me and came exactly in front of me.
