She turned holding her gown with a smile decorating her face......

And I.............

I am so surprised to react to anything...

"Nandini" I whispered looking at her with eye-opened n shocked expression...

Cabir looked at me ... then at her n clapped aloud while whistling to gain her attention n when she saw .... he gave a thumbs up to her n she smiled whole-heartedly...

'So innocent n pure her smile is...' my heart said n made me smile...

She walked down the stage to us...

"Nandu... u r so amazing... u rocked it." Navya said with excitement n hugged her.

"Nandini... u played very well... But u didn't mention that u r going to perform?" Mukti said.

"Actually, the pianist can't make it the last moment n Khusi was tensed so, I thought to help her out." She answered n we made  O face.

"U r beautiful." I said when Cabir n Abhi r praising her n she looked at me... Oh shit... What did I say???

"U played beautifully." I cover it up n she smiled.

I looked at Cabir who is giving me i-heard-it look... so, I excused myself as soon as possible...


The party ended n all my family went back to home... I had a get together with my crew members so... I stayed back.

Morning, Malhotra Mansion

Nandini's POV

All r having breakfast, talking around generally...

But... only one face is sad n regretful... stealing glances of one whom he deceived... not talking anything nor taking much of food...

This face is not hidden from his BFF... who could guess his state n decided to talk over.

"Ohh... Ishani is kidnapped." Alya said scratching her phone n looked at the Malhotra ladies.

"Really! that's so sad... I hope Ranveer could find him as soon as possible." Navya said.

"Don't worry... their love is strong enough to be broken by these villains." Mukti said looking at them n Mom nodded along with others.

"Whom r u talking about? Is anything serious?" I asked as I have no idea what they r talking all of a sudden .... n kidnap...

"Ohh... Ishveer." Alya said taking a bit ...n I gave a confused look.

"They r talking about an online story ... It is awesome..." Mom said looking at me.

"Ya... in fact all his stories r worth reading. U should also try it... its name is EmpireBlue'BB." Mukti suggested n I looked at them with wide eyes... then make myself normal n nodded.

I saw Manik entering to the Music room after he came back from his work... He still has the same face as the morning...

Something is off... He is hiding something n is stress n sad... But the way he looked at Nandini today, is quite different... like he is guilty, ashamed, sorry... but why? ...  why suddenly... what happened exactly? ...  I need to find out...
