~MANIK~

After reluctantly bidding bye to Nandini, Cabir dragged me to the car.
I stomped my feet and sat anyway.

I know i am acting like a child. But Nandini ke liye kuch bhi...

Cabir sits in the driving seat and starts the car. "Hmm... Nandini looked beautiful na?"

"Gorgeous! She was looking ethreal." I replied immediately thinking about how she looked today.

"Yeah! Thats my choti. Apne bhai pe gayi hai na!" He said proudly.

"Yes! Champ looks so good no?" I teased and his jaw dropped. "Manik your so mean!" He cribbed.

"Oh hello? I deserve this okay! After you oh so effectively ruined all my time with her i need some revenge." I rolled my eyes and looked at the traffic ahead.

He momentary looked at me, "Ofcourse i will ruin your time. How do you expect a brother to behave?" He frowned and looked unapologetic.

"What about your best friend role?" I cocked my brows up questioningly.
"Who? Me?" He asked looking here and there.

Great!

"Ohhh so that's how its gonna be now?" He nodded. "Okay! So then listen to me here dude, you remember the flower vase that mom loved too much, you broke?" His face showed absolute terror.

Ab aaya unth pahad ke neeche...

"Yeah! Since you're not my best friend. I will tell mom all about it." I smirked evilly seeing him gulp hard.

Cabir... Now you're in my trap... Cue evil laugh.

"Manik? Mere bhai? Tu aisa karega apne best friend ke saath?" He asked too sweetly.

"Ohh so ab yaad aa gaya ki i am your best friend?" I raised my eye brows.

"Arre tu toh serious le gaya yaar... I toh am always your best friend na!" He smiled carefully and i shot him a unconvinced look.

"Chal chal thik hai ab. Zada drama mat kar." He breathed a sigh of relief. "But.." He looked at me. "You owe me!"

"Okay!" He petulantly agreed and i smirked in victory.

After all I am The Manik Malhotra. I always win.

Cabir dropped me home and i went inside and rang the bell. "Aa gaya beta!" Mom exclaimed.

"Nahi!" I deadpanned. "Jaa raha hoon." She rolled her eyes at me and smacked my head.

"Ouch!" I rubbed my head and looked at her. She ignored me.

"Nandini kaisi hai?" She asked excitedly. "Pictures click kiye? Show me." She said not letting me speak a word.

"Maa!" I said a little loudly gaining her attention from her rant. "Bolne toh do!" She nodded.

I pulled her down on the sofa and settled my head on her lap. "Achhi hai Maa. Hasti-khelti bachhi. Meri Nandini." Mom smiled and ruffled my hairs.

"Aaj na mom, she was wearing ethnic again. And it was like a Angel came on this earth."

"Achha?"

"Yes mom! And maa, aaj we spent so much time together. And aaj Rakhi thi na toh Cabir was happy to finally celebrate." I blabbered like a kid.
