" It's Complicated " (Completed)

PART 24

Two more days past.
It was the big day for Fab5 as it was their concert day.

Afternoon Malhotra heights

Nandini was in office with Maan discussing about some projects with the rest of board members but Manik's continues calls in
Nandini's phone were disturbing them.

Getting irritated Nandini put her cell in silent mode as she was a perfect workaholic. And
got settled in the meeting.

After about forty five minutes a loud thud on the conference hall door grabbed their attention .

And there he was. The angry hulk sulking like anything in anger.

" what's this Manik ?" Maan stood up from his place and asked being irritated his sudden
visit that too like a storm.

He didn't replied anything to him but shouted turning towards Nandini
" What's wrong with
you haan? I was calling you zillion times but you didn't receive only? Where's your cell
haan ??"

Nandini was embarrassed so as Maan seeing Manik's so careless immature behavior in office.

" Manik calm down. " Nandini tried to calm him not wanting other's suspicious looks.

" calm down? Why should I calm down. ? Do you forget the day ? It's my concert day dammit. " He retorted seemed no trace to
calm.

Before Nandini could say anything Mr. Saxena
said " hey young man calm down. Why are you shouting at my would be daughter in
law ?"

Manik frowned with his words. And gave a disgusted look.

" I do remember it . And I would think to join you guys but after the meeting . "

Nandini said as she knew that only she could soothe the lava erupting inside this volcano.

" seriously?? like seriously Nandini. You are going to attend my concert after the meeting
when concert hi khatam ho jata. Hain na ?? "

Manik was in no mood to calm down.

The rest of the members started ogling them.
Nandini felt more embarrassed and said firmly " Manik you go. I will definitely reach on time. Now you please move. "

she needed to be rude to him to avoid more embarrassments .

" yeah I would love to move "

Manik replied with same anger and attitude.
" but only taking you with me. "

saying he held her hand and started drugging her with him with full rights he had on her.

" Manik leave. Meeting is still on"
Nandini pleaded as all had started gossiping on their fights.

" Manik leave my daughter in law if she doesn't want to go with you. " Saxena said angrily on his over close behavior towards
her.

Manik gave ' as if I care ' look to him. Andbthen said

" Gentlemen being the CEO of
Malhotra Heights, I, Manik Malhotra is declaring the end of this meeting right here.
It's all for today. Thank you. "

Saying a proud Manik turned around Maan and continued

" dad I am sneaking your
princess with me to my event making sure of her well beings. See you and mom tonight.
Wish me luck. "

He took full access on her weight and literally weighted her to the car.

*******
Car

" Manik again this childish nature. Sab kya sochenge ? What's all this nonsense ?"

She retorted as he tied her seat belt up leaning towards her.
He looked straight into his eyes and replied softly

" how Could I perform without my lucky charm haan ? since last four years I have to perform seeing you through the Skype
video calling. But when I have you so close with me then yet would I suppose to perform
without your physical presence Nandu ??
You're my luck Nandu . What would I do without your luck wish ?? "

His words melted her heart. And she hugged him. He was surprised at first but hugged her
back.

They broke the hug and saw her wet cheeks .

He asked her signalling ' what ?'

" Manik " she just had taken his name and pecked his forehead . he smiled and understood her unsaid words and settled
himself in the driving seat and started the engine.

When they were on the road to event place Nandini' s phone beeped and then she had
messaged something to someone.

****

They reached to the venue. As soon as his car entered into the event premises the media
and fans were started hooting for him.

Nandini became scared as she didn't like the lime light . Even on her engagement day also
she had hidden herself from media eye though Harshad was adamant to give a bite to
media with her but her family rescued her. .

But the way they were mobbed today they would definitely get mobbed by the media
people.

Manik could understand her state and messaged the fab4 and his manager to take care of the crowd to sneak Nandini out of the media pressures.

Within no time his manager and other volunteers jumped on there to shield them.

The manager opened the car gate for her and she got out. Manik then stepped out of the car followed by her.

Then they were smoothly sneaked out of the crowd to the dressing room where fab 4 were
waiting.

" ohh so finally you here Nandi. " Cabir came forward and hugged her.

" but what took you so long? Bus 1hr me concert will gonna start. " he said breaking the hug.

Nandini didn't say anything and looked at others who had same question in their eyes.

" office and meetings " Manik sarcastially replied breaking the silence. " madam ko itna
kaam ka fever hai k she forgot about our event. " he firmly said.

" come on Nandss that's not fair. You know na Manik will not perform till your presence.
And so as we yaar. You can't be so harsh on us "

Mukti joined Cabir.

Seeing Nandini so embarrassed with her own negligence Dhrub said " relax guys. Don't
make her more embarrass. She had work that's why she forgot nehi toh she won't miss
our any concert. "

" ohh Dhrub. ... tuh v naa " Cabir and Mukti sighed in unison .

" okk guys now lets get ready we have hardly 45 minutes. " Aliya said and all agreed with her and moved to their respective alloted
rooms to get dressed leaving Manik and Nandini behind as that was Manik's changing
room.

****

" you change jaldi se I will wait outside. "
Nandini said and was about to step out Manik stopped her holding her hand.

" what ??" Nandini asked .

" are you okay ? " Manik asked.

" yes I am. " she nodded and smiled. " but are you okay ?" She re asked.

Before Manik Could answer her phone beeped again. She took out her cell off her bag when
Manik frustratingly said

" first meeting then now phone. Good. You are too busy to give
me time Nandu. "

he placed his chin on her shoulder. His childish complaint made her forgot about the cell.
As she very well knew that His all these cute antics were reserved for her only.

" Awaaa " Nandini pulled her chin and said " Manik I wondered that what you would do when I will get married tab who will deal your tantrums? Tab kiske saath Yeh manmani
karoge ? "

Manik was silent for a while as like he was in deep thought and then he replied

" then I will not let you get married with anyone. "
