Manan ff : The Manager

chapter 25

Next Day.

10 : 00 am.

After freshening up, Manik was coming down the stairs to have a talk with Fab4.

As soon as Manik reached the living room, the main door burst open, revealing an angry Harshad.

Entering the living room, Harshad spat " WHAT THE HECK DO YOU THINK OF YOURSELF? ???"

Manik was taken aback by Harshad's bad mouthing. While, hearing Harshad shout, Fab4 and Nandini came running in the living room.

Cabir ( angrily ) : just get lost from here Harshad! !!!!

Harshad ( evilly ) : relax. ....main toh yaha The Great Manik Malhotra se baat karne aya hu! !!!!!!

Mukti ( pissed ) : humein tumhari bullshit nehin sunn ni. ....so just leave. .....

Harshad ( slyly ) : itni bhi jaldi kya hai beautiful? ?????......abhi toh humare paas bahut time hai! !!!!

Manik ( angrily ) : you are crossing your limit Harshad. .....so leave. ...warna accha nehin hoga. ....

Harshad ( wickedly ) : aur joh tune kiya hai. ....usske liye main tujhe zinda nehin chhodunga! !!!!

Manik ( confused ) : maine kya kiya? ?????

Harshad ( pissed ) : you bloody bastard. ....

Saying this, Harshad moved towards Manik, to hithim.
But before Harshad could even touch Manik, Nandini came in between them. She stood in front of him like a pillar. While, Harshad backed off.

Fully pissed by Harshad, Nandini finally spoke " barbaad ho chhuke ho. .....tumhari music company bik chhuki hai. .....lekin tumhara ghamand. ....woh zara sa bhi kam nehin hua! !!!!!"

On hearing this new piece of information, Fab5 was shocked . They gave each other confused looks. But at the back of their mind's, they very well knew only one mantra ' NEVER MESS WITH THE MANAGER ' .

Harshad gave a sly smile to Nandini and said " look who is talking. ....The Manik Malhotra ki manager. .....oops. ....The Manik Malhotra ki girlfriend "

Manik wasn't liking a bit the way Harshad was staring at Nandini. While, Nandini just wanted to keep Manik safe.

Harshad ( wickedly ) : you are seriously a tough cookie! !!!!......manager baan ke salary se jee nehin bhara. ....toh sedhee girlfriend hi baan gayi! !!!!.....aur ab dekho. ...Manik Malhotra ka bank balance tumhara hai. ....such a smart girl! !!!!....I am really impressed. .....waise. .....agar paiso ki itni hi zarurat thi. .....toh mere paas aa jaati. .....tumhe aapne bedroom ki rani baana ke rakhta. ....

The next instant, Harshad was lying on the floor, comfortably kissing the tiles, as Manik successfully planted a punch, on his not so handsome face.

All of this happend in a jiffy, that Fab4 and Nandini were unable to react.

Grabbing Harshad's collar, Manik pulled him up.

Manik was about to punch him again , when Harshad shamelessly said " ek manager ke liye itni humdardi. ....oops sorry. ...my mistake. ....your so called girlfriend cum bed partner. ...."

Before Harshad could complete, Manik punched him hard.

Manik ( furiously ) : shut up. ....teri himaat kaise hui aapne gaande zaban se Nandini ki naam lene. ...you jerk. ...

Saying this, Manik christened Harshad with few punches and kicks.

On seeing Maniks hand bleeding, Nandini freaked out.

Coming out of her trance, Nandini moved towards Manik and tried to separate him from Harshad.

Manik ( pissed ) : just stay out of this Nandini. ....aaj main isse zinda nehin chhodunga. ....

For once, Nandini got scared , seeing Manik so much angry.

But composing herself, Nandini again tried to stop them.

Though Cabir and Dhruv wanted to punch the shit out of Harshad, but on seeing Nandini struggling so much, they jumped in to stop the fight.

Though it was a one sided fight, as Manik was the one, who keept on kicking Harshad. While, Harshad was standing over there half dead.

Separating them, Cabir asked the Guards to take Harshad out of the house. While, Manik angrily left from there.

On seeing Manik so much pissed, Fab4 just gave a helpless look to Nandini.

Gathering all her courage, Nandini moved towards Maniks room.
On entering the room, Nandini found Manik sitting on the bed and huffing like a bull.

Grabbing the first aid kit from the drawer, Nandini went and kneeled in front of Manik.

Nandini was about to touch Maniks hand, but he angrily roared " just leave from here Nandini "

Scared by Maniks anger, Nandini flinched a bit, but tried to act brave.

Nandini again tried to touch Maniks hand, but he went all  thermonuclear on her and yelled " maine bola naa jaane ke liye. ....phir kyon ho yahapein? ????"

Nandini calmly replied " dekhiye. ....aapke haath se bahut khoon beh raha hai. ...so please aapni zid chhod dijiye. ...."

Manik ( pissed ) : mera haath. ...mera khoon. ...tumhe uss se kya? ???

Nandini with a shocked expression looked at Manik.

Unable to control his temper, Manik angrily spat " akhir problem kya hai tumhari? ????.....neeche tum chup chap uss Harshad ki bakwas kyon sunn rahi thi haan? ?????....uss se kuch kaha kyon nehin?????....aur mujhe kyon rokne ki koshish kar rahi thi? ????.... waise toh badi sherni baani phirti ho. ...phir aaj kya bheegi billi ki atma ghuss gayi thi? ????"

On hearing Maniks last sentence, Nandini chuckled.

Manik ( dangerously ) : just get one thing straight Nandini. ...ki you are mine. ....you are the girl whom I love. ....main kisi ko bhi tum pein ungli uthane nehin donga. ....

Nandini calmly replied " aapko safe rakhna meri sab se badi duty hai Sir. ....toh phir kaise main kisi ko bhi aap ko harm karne deti. ..."

With a hurt expression Manik asked " AM I ONLY YOUR BOSS NANDINI? ????"

Ignoring Maniks puppy dog looks, Nandini started treating his injured hand.

Once done with bandaging Maniks hand, Nandini stood up to leave.

But Manik held her wrist and asked " tum ne mere sawaal ka abhi taak jawab nehin diya? ???"

Composing herself, Nandini replied " woh. ....aaj shaam ko 6 baje office aa jaiye ga. ..."

Manik ( confused ) : par aaj toh Sunday hai? ????

Thinking for a minute, Nandini stammering " bass. ...kuch important. ...important kaam hai. ..."

Manik ( mischievously ) : haan. ...ab toh meri sherni / bheegi billi boss ne order joh diya hai. ...mujhe toh usse follow karna hi parega! !!!!

On hearing this, Nandini glared at Manik. While he just giggled like a fool.

Before another round of bickering session could break out, Cabir interrupted " ab tum dono ka romance ho gaya ho. ...toh kya hum andar aa sakte hai? ????"

Both Manik and Nandini looked at the door, where Fab4 was standing with a mischievous grin.

Sensing the danger ,Nandini freed her hand from Maniks grip and ran away from there. While, Manik annoyedly screamed " arrey mera jawab toh deti jao? ????"
