Day 1

"Are you sure you wanna do this?" Harry whispered next to her ear when Manika closed the door behind them.

"Yes, please"

Day 10

Harry🐰: would it be too quick to ask you out?

Manika: hmmm 🤔

Manika: if i get an ice cream and a kiss from you during it then no i don't think so

Day 12

"It's okay" Harry said, petting her arm, "so I accept all terms and conditions, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Desperate much?" Manika laughed.

"Very, you don't know how difficult it is to hold myself back to not kiss you"

With a smile, Manika launched her lips at his, pulling him close by her hands behind his head.

"Is that a yes?" Harry mumbled gainst her lips.

"In my book, it is a no" She replied flatly. "Of course it's a yes, Styles"

Day 35

Harry takes a deep breath and then breathes out with the words-

"Will it be weird if I say that I love you?"

And Manika freezes in her stance, eyes still closed and fingers now resting on his skin. "What?" She asks after a minute.

Day 50

"I don't want to loose you" She murmured in his neck in a whisper weakly, letting the warmth and certainty envelop the two of them.

"I'll make sure you won't" Harry murmured back, snuggling into her.

Day 60

Rita huffed and then smiled devilly as she carried on. "I found the perfect man for you"

"What?" Manika chuckled nervously, hoping that she heard her wrong.

~~~

They stood content while their lips moved seamlessly with one another. "I love you" Manika breathed which came out more as a moan when he bit her lip.

"I love you too" Harry exhaled when their kiss came to an halt.

Day 80

"Manika!" Anne grinned pulling her in a bear hug.

"Mrs. Twist" Manika smiled, hugging her back.

"Your son's here too-" Harry started but halted abruptly at what he heard.

"Sweetheart, how many times have told you to call me Anne" She shook her head.

"What?" Harry questioned with wide eyes.

"I'm sorry, I'll keep that in mind Anne from now on" Manika replied, unfazed. "By the way, your son's here too"

"I noticed, cannot not see this giraffe" Anne laughed.

"Wha- hey! She's the same height as me" Harry asserted. "What is going on here?"

"Oh Haz, I forgot to tell you" Manika admitted, "meet my new best friend" she smiled throwing her arm over Anne's shoulder.

"Yeah, we've been talking over the phone for the past week, it's been wonderful"

Harry stood there with a jaw dropped and stumbled upon his words. He halted and started after clearing his throat, "say what?"
