When Nandini met Manik for the first time, she never wanted him to be 'the one'; or actually, that thought didn't even cross her mind. And for Manik, it was no different. She was a potato faced annoying girl whom he just couldn't stand. He was the player. She was the girl next door. She was a gorgeous geek. He was a hot mess. But ever wondered what would happen when their fates will entwine, and they'd get stuck up with each other, in the very same house- not for a day, not for a month, but much longer. Maybe six months? Or maybe even a year? Maybe. One house. Two Roommates. And a love story written by their stars, and sealed by the fireflies. ~ | < 'they loved a love more than love' > | ~ Stars ~ A MaNan FF.
