Manan: Unwanted Marriage

Chapter 17

Manik was sitting in his cabin closing his eyes...he was remembering all his moments with nandini and smiling like a fool...he was thinking how she came in his colourless life and filled it with colours and changed it for good...he was busy thinking all these and smiling when he heard a knock on his door
Man: yes come in
And here comes veebha the chudail with two mugs of coffee
V: hii manik...she chirped
Man: tum yha..??
V: wo nandini nai hai na to socha tumse mil lu
Man: and what do mean by nandini nai hai isiliye yha ayi ho?
V: i mean ki wo hoti hai i am not comfortable with u...manik i just wanted to say sorry to u for all my clinginess...that's why I have brought this coffee as a token of apology for u
Man: see veebha there's seriously no need of all these
V: plz manik have it...for our old friendship sake...she requested
Manik rolled his eyes: OK fine
He took a coffee and started seeping coffee
Man: happy...??...now can u plz go now i have some tasks to do
V: yaa sure
Veebha got up from the seat and started walking towards the door when manik fell unconscious and she smirked

Actually aliya gave her a medicine which makes a person unconscious for 2 hours and she has mixed it in manik's coffee.

She turned and went up to manik and put his cell in flight mode..she called a peon whom she has bribed and with help of him she broughr manik to the restroom attached to his cabin and made him lie down in bed

V: ye lo paise...tumhara kaam ho gya...dhyaan rakhna yha koi bhi 2 ghante se pehle naa aa paye
Peon: ji madam
He took the money bundle and went from there
She put lipsticks stains on his shirt...smudged her lipstick... Tangeled her hairs like a chudail and slept next to manik
