Manan - never to forever

Karma is a bitch

It was too difficult for me to digest that the person sitting in front of me was none other than Manik Malhotra

Nandini where are you lost? My dad asked

How will I explain dad that how badly you have landed me in trouble

I just need to go to the washroom, I told and quickly came back to my room and straight  Away went to the washroom and locked  the door

What the fuck man ! Why can't my life be a simple for once why do I have to go through all the problems

Relax Nandini , don't panic it's been 5 years things have changed !
But what if ..... I tried to console myself

You guys must be thinking what's happening with me or why I am soo tensed seeing Manik !

Wait I'll explain

5 years back
It's was my first year in college I was kind of popular there and so was my group .....
it was another usual day in college I just entered when a guy came and gave me a rose

I was confused? And asked him but he didn't reply and this kept going on

All this while I was walking someone or the other guy came towards me and gave me rose without telling me the actual reason I was soo confused
And I finally reached at the canteen where I saw balloons on the ground ......

Today is not my birthday than why is all this happening with me ? I was too confused

But then I saw a guy holding a bouquet of roses in hand his face wasn't visible because of the flowers ...

And then he removed the flowers and then I saw a healthy guy with big round power glasses  ( Manik was totally different from what he is now)

Manik, (I knew him since he was my classmate )I exclaimed looking at him

Nandini , I always liked you but never had that courage but today I am finally expressing my feelings for you ... so Nandini will you be my girlfriend... he asked

But before I could say anything
I heard laughing sound I turned and saw my friends

Ohhhhh dam look who is proposing Nandini ..... my friend exclaimed

You dumb fuck have you ever look yourself in the mirror ....but I must say you have. A lot of guts Han college ki sabse sundar ladki ko propose kardiya ...my friend said

Leave that , how dare you even think of proposing her , meri bandi hai woah .... Karan shouted holding Maniks collar ( Karan was my bf at that time )

Guys relax! I tried to calm him down

Manik I mean why have you done this ..... you know I am in relationships with Karan then ... I asked Manik

Nandini but you messaged me last night and said that you too liked me .... Manik said

Oh that ! It was a dare given to me to message any guy saying I like you and I thought of messaging you manik but I never thought ki tum yeh sab plan kar loge... I replied

Kuch bhi ho ! Tune soach kese liya.... ki Nandini tujhe pasand karegi I mean woah tuj jese ko apna  friend na banae aur tu bf bane ki soach raha hai ... Karan said

And everyone in the canteen was laughing at Manik

I kind of felt bad but can't do anything

Bloody loser , my friend traded him

Not loser ! Fasting, Karan exclaimed

And everyone in the canteen was laughing at Manik

Nandini let's go...... Karan said and took me along with him

Karma  is a bitch and I guess i realised it.....

Nandini now you have to face it ....and with gathering courage I went out of the washroom

And then to my shock I saw Manik sitting on my bed

He is completely changed he has truly turned into a handsome hunk ..... but i shouldn't be thinking about that I should be worried about myself

Manik what's are you doing in my room ? I asked

Uhhh! Your parents sent me here
He replied looking at my photo frames

Aren't you turned a lil fat! He exclaimed looking at the picture and then look at me

How dare you! I mean that's none of you concern . I replied back coldly

And he passed a evil smirk at my words

Nandini , I always heard that history repeats it self but I guess I am actually experiencing it now ... he exclaimed settling back on the sofa ....

I understood his statement

Manik , listen I am sorry for that incident I mean even I thought to say sorry to you the next day but you never returned back to college after that... I said

Nandini , past should be kept in the past  and you know time changes everything look at me
How I have changed ....he exclaimed looking straight into my eyes

Yeah right! But I guess that time I rejected your proposal and now you have reject mine so we both will be on the equal scale then... I said

Ahhhh! Nandini I thought you are smart but i guess I was mistaken
.....he said and got up and came towards me

Sweetheart heart I am no more a good boy , I am a bad boy now ... he exclaimed with a wink

Huh? I actually couldn't understand him

Confused? He asked

Don't worry ! I'll make it simple for you .... so sweetheart if I'll do what you did years back then what will be the difference between you and me ....he said

Manik what you mean ? I asked

By that I mean , there would be no fun if I said no to this marriage the actual fun will happen when I say yes ! He exclaimed

Manik marriage is not fun ! I exclaimed loudly

Relax ! There will be lot of surprise awaiting for you Mrs Malhotra, it's just the beginning....he exclaimed  with a smirk

Mrs Malhotra? I asked

But instead of replying me he went out
I followed him

Uncle aunty I am ready for this marriage and actually I can't wait to marry Nandini , he exclaimed and looked at me

And his words completely blown me away

But dad! I tried to say but my mom shut me ...

Not a word Nandini otherwise it won't be good for you! She exclaimed

I looked at Manik with my blood boiling

And he was having his wicked evil smile on his face
