Nandini's POV

I'm off on my bed, finding myself staring at the glowing stars on my top, not on the sky, but on my ceiling which seems simply shining more in the dark moonless night, as it's past 2 am in mid-night by now. I just arrived home half an hour before n entered with my spare key as I've informed others not to wait for me as I'll be late due to the jewelry event.

I closed my heavy eyes out of tiredness... it was a long day! Eventful thought!

My mind flashes the feel of his warmth... and I started recalling when Manik ordered to follow him out of the blue and dashed away.

I too walked trying to reach his pace but he's gone missing from my eyesight as I reached the last corridor to which I probably saw him walking to. There were fewer people around this corner so I tried looking around here n there, searching for him... when suddenly a pull on my wrist caused me to circle around behind the large round pillar.

I gasped in fear n was about to scream aloud but a familiar voice stopped me...

"It's me" I recognize! Manik.

Without a blink of a second, he pulled me in a tight hug, encircling his strong arms over my shoulders and closing very gap between his well-toned body and my feminine one. At first, I was shocked, the sudden, tight hug... not like a friendly one... but more.

But I liked the feeling of it!

Within 5secs my hands automatically encircled brushing his strong back till his shoulder. He lowered his face more onto my neck side feeling my fragrant hairs while I aligned my head close to his. With my eyes close, I felt it!

It felt so Right! so peaceful! so protected! so HOME!

Till now, I could feel it's feeling, his warmth radiating that I want it for me

Till now, I could feel it's feeling, his warmth radiating that I want it for me... Till now, I'm sensing its bliss... it was new, yet familiar, yet different!

I don't know, but I felt that if I'd have the superpower then I'd just stop the time that time... forever!

I know, I don't make sense with the description of my new feeling of just a HUG. But, it's... it's... I can't express it! *sigh*

Anyways, after like minutes, how much no idea! He slowly retreated his hands off me... I too pulled out my hands over him.

Don't move! stay still some more. I wanna say, but couldn't voice.

He back away a bit and looked at me... He seems content. Of what?

"I was stressed lately!" he reasoned looking directly into my eyes.

"I understand" I spoke but I don't know what I understood; his reason for the sudden change of behavior since a month, or his sudden hugging me, or the story his satisfied eyes talking, or my own sentiments.
