Close To My Heart - Manan

Hey M....

In college

"Alya, Nandini, Navya let's have a girls night out." Mukti said and the girls agreed happily and they got busy in planning the girls night out.

"Oooo wait wait wait.... and what about us." Cabir said.

"What about you?" Mukti argued.

"Matlab. What. About. Us. Boys. Where will we go?" Cabir explained her word to word.

"Didn't you heard it. It's. A. Girls. Night. Out." Mukti copied him while Cabir pouted sadly.

"Why don't you have a boys night out bhai?" Nandini suggested seeing Cabir sad and the next moment his eyes lit up.

"OK then Manik....me, Dhruv and Abhi are coming to your home tonight." Cabir said. "No" Manik said glaring at him which Cabir ignored.

"I didn't asked you, I stated we are coming." Cabir said while others giggled at it.

"I think even we should have our night out in my home." Mukti said and all the girls agreed.

They chatted for a while in the canteen then went to mall for shopping as decided by Alya.

In Mall

All of them were divided into two groups. Manik, Nandini, Mukti and Navya in one and Alya, Dhruv, Cabir and Abhimanyu in one.

"Navya Mukti let's go to food court, I'm starving." Nandini said.

"Yeah even I am starving." Both Mukti and Navya said in unison and trio (Nandini, Mukti and Navya) laughed. While Manik made a face at them.

***********

"Nandu you take a sit, we both will go and give the order." Navya said. They were about to go but Manik stopped them.

"No you girls sit, I will go." Manik said.

"Bhai we are going in a nearby counter and I know you are tired." Mukti said making him sit in a chair.

Nandini wanted to go with them but before she could say anything they both vanished.

"Hey Mini, what's your name?" Manik asked her all of a sudden.

" Huh..what did you call me?" Nandini said unsure.

"Mini. Now tell me your name." Manik asked her again.

"But why? And my name is not Mini." Nandini said. "Then tell me your name." Manik asked her again.

"Nandini" she answered. "Oh your name is Nandini." Manik said.

"By the way what's your name Mr. Giraffe?" Nandini said.

"It's Manik" he stated glaring at her but she also started glaring at him.

"Whatever.. Mr. Giraffe." She said still shooting dragers.

"What happened guys?" Mukti asked keeping the tray on table.

"Nothing this friend of yours is so irritating." Manik said.

A/N: Hey guys, I hope you all are fine and safe.

I'm sorry for this late update but what can I do? I am not getting the response I had expected for this story and it killed my motivation.

And now also if I don't get nice response I will discontinue the story.
