After the Breakup

8. (Where are you)

"Hello", she said..

"Hi Nandini", I said..

"How are you", I asked, I don't why am I being sk formal well I have no choice either..

"I'm fine", she replied, I just she could ask 'how are you, Manik' anyways leave it..

"Nandini", I called out..

"Hmm", she replied..

Is your amms ok now?", I asked..

"Umm...kind off but she's still feeling weak, I hope she gets fine soon", she said..

"Don't worry, she'll be fine", I assured her..

"Hmm", she replied...

And yet again, I don't wanna end the call this soon but what else can I say, and can't she reply anything else than, hmm...hmm..

Once we get back together na, I am so irritate her for this, stupid girl..

"So then", I asked..

"Nothing", she replied..

"Bye then", I then, she must be shocked, I'm gonna hang up this early today without stretching it..

"Bye", she replied and hanged up..

"Well Nandu let's try this plan on you, I shouldn't forget I'm Manik after all, these good instincts don't suit me", he thought with smirk..

He opened his phone and messaged on the Fab5 group...

After being intentionally spotted with Inaaya in public, he was desperately waiting to call her today..

He waited for night, the usual time of their phone convo and dailled her number..

She didn't pick up at first, he tried two three more times but she didn't pick up the call again..

He was tensed, she did tried to hang up early or talk uninterestedly, but never used to avoid his calls..

Nevertheless he lied on his bed in deep thoughts and dozed off unknowingly...

——☆——

Next day he didn't wait for night and called her in the morning itself, he frowned finding it unreachable again..

"Gawdd, what the hell is she up to, why isn't she picking up my calls", he said to himself pressing his head in frustration..

Soon, he heard a voice which did nothing but increased his frustration..

Inaaya - Hi Manik, aaj kya karna hai, are we gonna wear twin clothes or go on a date and be spotted or post something fishy in our stories, what's say..

Manik - Umm, no, not today, you can go home, I'll msg you soon..

Inaaya - Are you stressed? I can help..

He would've just grabbed her hand and thrown her out this moment if she wasn't helping him, but he controlled somehow and tried to act the calmest he can..

"Nahi, I'll just get some sleep, you go", he said and she sighed before leaving..

There's something wrong, I should go and ask chacha chachi, if she's fine..

Since the time Nandini went to Manglore, he had never visited them but he drove to there without any second thoughts, her well being was priority right now...

As he reached, he saw them ready to leave the place, this did nothing but added to his confusion..

——☆——

To be continued...

Guess what's up with everyone...

Are you too irritated with the phone convos just like me, well Manik is more irritated than any of us, so no phone convos now..
