MaNan- Bad boy's girl✔

14. Little moments

"Nandini now shall I drive?" Manik asked.

"No Manik I am not done." Nandini replied.
But the very next moment their car collided with the garbage tin which was kept at the turning of the highway.

"Nandini now I am not letting you drive." Manik frowned and said.

Nandini could figure out that Manik was annoyed but she was well aware about the fact that he couldn't remain annoyed with her.

"No Manik."she contradicted but this time Manik was not letting her drive. He got out of the car.

"Manik get in." Nandini almost yelled.

Manik just leaned to his car and stayed silent. "M-A-N-I-K." Nandini shouted as she got out of the car but still he didn't respond. She shook him gently but he just turned to the other side.
"Manik stop behaving like this." Nandini snapped but Manik remained silent knowing that silence was the best way to handle her in such a situation.

After a moment or few "OK fine you drive." Nandini frowned and moved towards the backseat but Manik blocked her way. She had no other option but to sit at the passenger seat. He then moved towards the driver seat. All the way she reclined her head on the seat and made faces looking at Manik while Manik silently laughed seeing her make faces.

He took her to a beach. Her annoyed face had faded away with the cool breeze. The beach was just perfect. They gazed out at the slothful sea. Ebbing ever so gently,the waves were drenching the sand. The murmuring of waves was hypnotic. Nandini was wearing heels so she was struggling to balance in the sand. Manik swiftly scooped her in his arm and carried her till the hammock Placed her on the bench, he came down on his knees and looked at her intently.

"Manik don't look at me like that. You know right looks do kill."

Manik chuckled,"If looks killed I would have died a thousand death with those innocent look of yours." He ruffled her hair and she pouted angrily.

"Manik Malhotra don't mess with my hair." Nandini too ruffled his hair and he just smiled.

He then sat beside her. He took put her favorite Dairy Mil Silk from his pocket and gave it to her.

Her eyes twinkled and she smiled. "What's with Mr. Malhotra today? First he brought me to my favorite beach and then now even my favorite chocolate."

"I just opened your diary after so long. While going through it's pages I just realized we haven't done this since a long time."  He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. She smiled and pecked his cheeks lightly.

Meanwhile in SPACE.

"Aryaman asked me out on a date." Mukti tried saying him causally.

"That jerk. You obviously rejected him." Abhi said. He was so sure Mukti would never date a guy like Aryaman but next what she spoke was like a bomb to him.

"I accepted his proposal and today I am going on a date tonight."

"What??" He said shocked."How could you accept his proposal? I mean you don't even know him and he isn't even a good guy."

"I like him." Mukti said and that very moment it felt like his whole world had crashed down.

"But you don't know him? He isn't good and he is-" He was getting irritated with every passing moment and reason he didn't know it himself.

"You don't need to judge him Abhi. Don't speak a word against him. I like him and I will date him." Mukti said and it hurt. His heart felt heavy and so did hers. Only she knew how she spoke those words.

"Okay fine." Abhi said. "Let's not talk about him. Let's go. I will drop you home."

"It's not needed. Aryaman is going to drop me home." Mukti said and walked away with a heavy heart, not even waiting for his reply.
