In the Orchard
Manik and Nandini were standing with an embarrassed face by looking here and there. While Eva and Myra stood with a teasing smirk on their faces..
Myra: Bhai, what took you so long to reach when we have already reached a minute back..
Manik ( nervously ): Uh, nothing. I..I was just..slow..slow in walking..
Eva ( scratched her chin ): If I am not wrong, you've got long legs and people with long legs could walk faster, hai na Cutie Patootie..?
Myra ( grinned ): Oh yes, you said right..
Manik managed to glare at Myra and gave a stupid grin to Eva..
Manik: Um, I think..I should move ahead..
Saying it, he started moving but Eva's vocie stopped him again..
Eva: Arey Jeeju, agar apko kahi jaana hai tho jayiye, meri nanandh ko bhi le kyu ja rahe hai..?
Manik frowned but then noticed that he was still holding onto Nandini's hand and he looked at her to see her looking, correction glaring at Eva with a red face, it was hard to guess, whether she was red due to anger or was she blushing. She turned her gaze to Manik and gave a nerovus smile. He simply took his hand back..
Manik: Um...bye..
He literally ran from there leaving the girls to bust in laughter..Nandini was about to escape from there when the girls caught her by arms..
Nandini: Arey mujhe Bua bula rahi hai..
Eva: koi nahi, hum saath mein jayenge..waise bhi hume ter saare baathein karne hai tujhse, kyu Cutie..
Myra ( grinned ): Ye bhi koi poochne ki baath hai, waise didu, aapko mera Bhai kaise laga..?
Nandini ( bit her lips ): Uh..tumhara..Bhai..umm..tujhe patha hai na..mujhe kuch din pehle hi patha chala..ki tum Sachan Bhai ke choti behen ho..phir kyu pooch rahe ho baba..
Myra ( smirked ): Wow didu, aap tho aajakal excuse banana bhi seekh liya. I'm impressed. Waise, let em make it clear. I was talking about Manik Bhai, your to-be-husband..
Nandini ( looking here and there ): Um..Manik..yeah..what..about him..
Eva: Devilie, wo pooch rahi hai ki tujhe kaise laga wo..
Nandini: Arey ye tujhe nahi patha hai kya Cutie Patootie, tu uski behen hai tho tujhse zyada koi jaan sakthi hai kya usse..acha mein chalthi hoon..Ma bula rahi hai..
Nandini got out of their grip and was about to move ahead when Myra stood in front of Nandini and held her hands in her's..
Myra ( smiled ): Teek hai, let's not joke. Aap sach bathayiye..Did you like him..?
Nandini stared at Myra to see her with raised eyebrows and eyes with full of curiousness..
Nandini ( smiled ): Like ka tho patha nahi Cutie. You know its an arrange marriage so liking your would-be won't be possible until you understand him enough and I am just trying to understand your brother. All I can say is, your brother is a good person, though he sound like an impulsive and arrogant soul at first but he is good by heart and I am happy to be his would-be wife..
Myra smiled in happiness and hugged Nandini tightly making the girls smile..
Myra ( breaking hug ): Didu, I know he seems to be arrogant but his heart is so pure. Just like a baby, he needs someone to take care of him and his anger. He shows his true face only to his family and now you're going to be a part of it so gradually, you will get to know his real character and trust me you'll love him truly..
