Manan ff : Best Friends Forever

chapter 34

Brightland Resort and Spa

Mahabaleshwar

Twisting and tossing on the bed, Nandini really tried hard to sleep. But Maniks constant whistling was making her task difficult.

As the last straw of Nandini's patience broke, she took a cushion and launched at Manik with full force.

Manik who was busy in arranging the wardrobe, easily ducked the cushion attack.

Manik ( annoyed ) : kya taklif hai tujhe? ???....shanti se mujhe kaam bhi nehin karne de rahi! !!!!

Nandini ( irritatedly ) : abbey. ...taklif toh tujhe hai meri neeind se! !!!....jab dekho muh utha ke disturb karne chala atta hai! !!!!

Manik ( sarcastically ) : oops I forgot! !!!....meri Nandu ko duniya mein sirf ek hi kaam ata hai. ...and that is soona! !!!

Nandini ( rolling her eyes ) : atleast mujhe soona toh ata hai. ...teri tarah nehin. ..ki saara dil football ko laath maarti phirti hu! !!!!

Manik ( sarcastically ) : yeah right! !!!....main football ko laath maarta hu. ..aur tu mujhe football samajh ke laath maarti hai! !!!!

Nandini ( pissed ) : kuch toh sharam kar le. ..shaadi hui nehin ki husband's ke jaise jhagra karne laag gaya! !!!

Manik ( annoyed ) : tu aapni harkaton pein zara focus kar le. ... typical wife's ke jaise tantrums dikha rahi hai! !!!

That was it, another cushion was launched at Manik, which he failed to duck.

Bang the cushion slammed on Maniks face.

Manik ( irritatedly ) : jungli aurat. ....kuch toh rehem dikha de. ..ek lauta husband hu main tera! !!!!

Nandini ( casually ) : sab ke ek hi husband hote hai gadhe! !!!!

Rubbing his nose, Manik mouthed " whatever! !!!!...huh. ..."

Pissed at Nandini, Manik went and sat near the window, totally her presence.

After making all the possible faces at Manik, Nandini finally decided to pacify Manik.

Walking up to him, she poked his cheeks.

Looking at her, Manik asked " kya hai? ???? "

Nandini ( pouting ) : oye tu mujh pein gussa hai kya? ?????

Manik just nodded his head in a no, not at all meeting her eyes.

Pulling his ears, Nandini again asked " toh phir baat kyon nehin kar raha? ??? "

But Manik didn't reply anything to her this time.

Unable to bear his silence, Nandini comfortably sat on Maniks lap. While Manik protectively held her waist.

Pulling his nose, Nandini cutely explained " pataa hai tu jab gussa hota hai naa Manu. ..toh yeh tera nosy hai naa. ..bilkul joker ke nosy jaisa laagta hai! !!! "

Manik wanted to roll his eyes badly at Nandini's comparison. But decided against it.

Pulling Maniks cheeks, Nandini wailed " uff kitne der taak baat nehin karne wala hai tu? ????? .....I am getting super bored yaar! !!!!....please baat kar le. ..pretty pleaseeeee! !! "

Scowling at her, Manik taunted " kyon karu main tujhse baat? ???...tujhe toh bahut neeind aa rahi thi naa! !!!....jaa jaake chup chap soo jaa! !!! "

Snaking her arms around Maniks neck, Nandini teased " ohhhh. ..toh tu gussa iss baat se hai ki main tujhe nehin. ..balki mere neeind ko zyaada importance de rahi thi! !!! "

Manik ( annoyed ) : tu hamesha aapne neeind ko hi zyaada importance deti hai! !!!...in fact tujhe mujhse nehin. ..balki aapne neeind se shaadi karni chahiye thi! !!!!

Agreeing to him, Nandini said " sahi mein yaar. ..tab toh life set ho jaati! !!!! "

Getting mad at her, Manik cribbed " tu abhi ke abhi meri goudi se uttar! !!!...mujhe tere saath ek pal bhi nehin rehna !!!!"

Laughing at Manik, Nandini pulled his reduced cheeks " awww. ....gussa karte waqt tu kitna cute laagta hai Manu! !!...hamesha aise hi gusse mein raha kar tu! !!!! "

Saying this, Nandini laughed even harder . While Manik just sat over there pouting.

Controlling her laughter spree, Nandini held her ears and pleaded " accha sorry naa. ...ab se main mere neeind ko aur tujhe equal importance dungi! !!! "

Listening to this, Manik just nodded his head in disbelief.

Trying to negotiate Nandini commented " itni bhi sadi hui shakal baana ne ki zarurat nehin hai! !!!....equal importance de rahi hu naa dono ko! !!!"

Manik ( rolling his eyes ) : I am obliged indeed! !!!

Ignoring Maniks taunt, Nandini declared "  I am bored. ..chal TV dekhte hai! !!! "

Nodding his head, Manik gave her a look.

Not at all understanding what he meant, Nandini queried " kya hai? ???...aise ghur kyon raha hai? ???? "

Manik ( calmly ) : tu agar meri goudi se nehin haategi. ..toh hum living room taak kaise jaenge? ???

Giving Manik a sheepish smile, Nandini nudged " mujhe aise hi bridal style mein leeke chal naa Manu! !!!!! "

Narrowing his gaze at her, Manik commented " kyon? ???...tere paas paire nehin hai kya? ???? "

Nandini ( cutely ) : haan naa. ...but chal ne ka mann nehin kar raha! !!!

Manik ( sarcastically ) : main toh bhul hi gaya tha. ..ki tu toh naagin hai! !!!...aur naagin log chalte nehin hai. ..balki zamane mein rengte hai! !!!

Nandini ( irritatedly ) : agar main naagin hoti naa. ..toh sabse pehele tujhe hi dassti! !!!

Manik ( sarcastically ) : woh tu mujhe waise bhi har din dassti hi hai! !!!

Nandini ( grimly ) : yeah right. ..toh phir abhi taak tu zinda kaise hai? ???

Manik ( grinning ) : woh darasal tera zeher bade hi ghatiya quality ka hai. ..issliye mujhe abhi taak maut nehin ayi! !!!

Before Nandini could retaliate, she felt the softness of the couch under her.

Looking around in shock, she found herself on the couch in the living room.

Turning towards Manik, Nandini queried " yeh hum log living room taak kaise pohache? ???? "

Winking at Nandini, Manik said " jab tu aapni zaban chala rahi thi. ..tab main actually aapne paire chala raha tha! !!! "

Nandini was about to make her move, but Manik shut her mouth, by giving the remote.

Once the remote was in her hand, Nandini forgot about the whole world and started fiddling with it. While instead of watching the TV Manik gazed at Nandini, who looked no less than a comic character herself.
