Covenant--A Pact Of Love [ in editing] .[✔️COMPLETED]

90. (BONUS CHAPTER--I)

"I discovered something new about you today.." Manik whispered as he and Nandini entered the premise of SPACE.

She raised her eyebrows "..which is.."

"..that you are an excellent actor as well." He winked "..for a second you shocked me as well when you said that you didn't want to be in a relationship with me. I was shocked to my very core and I have no shame in admitting that. You were so convincing."

"Thank you Mr. Malhotra. Glad you liked my performance." She winked making him smile. "..I loved it Miss. Murthy."

"Well in that case you have to be given equal credit. The way you showed Aryaman the mirror and the way you explained that quitting and walking away isn't the only option..that's remarkable as well."

"I have tons of experience of that Nandini." Manik kissed her knuckles. "I might not have been lucky enough to have best parents but I had the best luck to have the best of friends and you. I think God had balanced that deficiency by sending you all to my life."

"You know Manik.." Nandini looked at her with warmth filled eyes. "..you are a true gem just like your name. Though you have experience darkness in your life but you chose to bring joy and happiness into the life of other. You aren't like those people who justified their wrong actions by stating that they were scarred so they think it's correct to scar other people as well. They think just because they got scarred by something or someone it's their right to inflict pain and darkness on other to make their lives miserable."

"Though you went through hell and loneliness yourself you never allowed darkness in the lives of your friends once you entered their lives. And that's what makes you a real hero. You mask your beautiful heart and soul as you don't want the world to see the real you. You don't want them to know that you are the real hero. Rather you prefer staying under the camafloudge of being a Monster that every one is scared of. You seem very complicated but in reality you are someone who doesn't want to open up to people so that they could take your advantage."

"Seeing your case your act seems fair and just. However I feel extremely honored that you chose to open up to me and gave me the access to your heart. Today helping me you have carved your existence in the bottom of my heart. I don't know what's going to happen between Aryaman and Riddhima but I am glad we did everything we could and you stood next to me."

"I feel extremely blessed, proud and happy that you are with me."

Nandini's eyes were shining with happiness  that made Manik's heart gloat with happiness as well.

"I didn't knew you will be this happy.." He pulled her cheeks. "..just by seeing the trailer.."

She raised her eyebrows "..you mean there is more.."

"More..." Manik smirked "..well let's just say what just happened outside was just a trailer...puri picture abhi baki hai Madam.."

"Really.." Nandini was excited now. "Manik what is it...tell me na.."

"Not so fast Ms.Murthy. Just wait for the right time...soon you will see everything by yourself.."

"Manik this is so unfair.." she pouted. "Come on tell me na what's going on.."

However before Manik could reply someone else spoke

"Yes Manik...even we want to know exactly what the hell is going on.."

Both Manik and Nandini looked up in shock only to find Mukti, Dhruv and Alia looking at both of them with question filled eyes.
