MANIK POV!
I descended stairs glaring at the two munchkins of my life who were giggling seeing me but little did I know the real reason behind it! They were giggling more with each step I descended! I got suspicious and looked down which made my heart reach my pant pocket!
"Ahhh!!" I shouted in such a level which can wake up whole Mumbai. They both burst into fits of laughter seeing me scared.
"Sheshi what the hell is this?! Pehle bhagav usse" I said shaking my fear
"Awee!! Manny why are you so scared! Look at this it's so cute! Right Nancy!" Sheshi giggled hi-fighing Nandu.
I gave a weird look.
"How on the earth you found lizard cute! Seriously seshi! Please usse jaldi bhagav!" I pleaded.
I am hell scared of lizards I minimum maintain 1 km distance from it and my two munchkins take it as advantage and make me fulfill their crazy wishes!
"Uh-oh not so easy Manny!" she said with an evil grin. I know something crazy was coming in way.
"Sheshi what's cooking in your kuraphathi brain"I asked her curiously. All my curiosity is replaced by horror when she took out baby pink nail polish from her pocket.
"Munchkin this is not fair sweetheart! How can you do this to me.. Nandu say something!" I literally begged nandu with eyes!
"Oh please! Don't involve me in you and your junior munchkin issues! I don't want to be her next target!"She said with I CANT DO ANYTHING attitude and turned towards sheshi "Sweetheart complete your craziness fast its dinner time" and turned her heels into kitchen.
Sheshi started climbing stairs with a evil grin.
"Munchkin Pleachhhj" I tried melting her in baby voice.
"Manny you are trapped." she said sheepishly
"Hogayi satyanash" my heart and brain sighed
10 minutes later...
"Sheshi this smells so bad yuck! Nandu how you girls wear this" I said trying to gulp the nail paint smell. Yuckkk!
After the enormous laughter at my misery they took a little mercy on me and stopped their umm... hilarious..!!! nah.!! Dangerous yeah dangerous pranks or stunts or whatever it was to trouble me.
Finally we headed to dining hall for the dinner. Nandini has made her favorite Schezwan Fried rice.
Nandini sat at the head of the family chair where as I sat next to her on left and I think sheshi will sit in my front.
"Nancy today I will sit beside Manny" sheshi said. That alarmed me; this dinner is definitely going to be dangerous for me. Suddenly I remembered something
"Nandini that file I gave you in the morning, I have read it, still if you want you can go through it an-" I was cut by her.
"Manik few minutes back I said you that I trust you that was not just for saying I truly meant it." Had it been possible I would climbed on the table with her and danced with her all happy and delighted. But I have to behave. She is so innocent and she really trusts me. But can't she see my feeling?? Once chance I want and I will surely tell you what I feel but I am equally afraid to lose you as a friend.
I was in my Nandini land when I felt something wet on back side of my right hand. It has to be sheshi being my neighbor during this oh so lovely dinner. Now what the hell is this? I turned my head from Nandini and focused on the wet thing on the back side of my hand.
I with an immediate jerk shoved my hand under the table. Thank god! Nandini didn't saw it. I excused myself and headed towards kitchen I heard sheshi giggled behind me.
I came to kitchen sink and washed my right hand though I wasn't willing to wash it. WHY? Because sheshi had written "NANDU I LOV" with a ketchup squeezer on the back of my hand that too in caps. God this girl!!
I went back to the table glared at her and this time sat on the right to Nandini. Nandini asked what happened I said I forgot to wash my hands before eating. What a lame? I know but she bought it. I heaved a sigh.
We completed our dinner with few work related talks and sheshi explaining how she made her teacher kiss the floor, as she wasn't allowed to talk to her best friend.!
*****
I and sheshi are in living room, sheshi sitting on my lap talking about her school masti while nandu was busy in kitchen.
"Manny when are you going to propose Nancy?!" she suddenly questioned.
Yeshhh, the little dangerous prankster sitting on me is my secret dairy who knows everything happening in my life.
"She loves someone else munchkin!" and I narrated her how nandu was day dreaming about dhruv, how she was about kiss me thinking I am dhruv how she pleaded me to teach her Gujarati!
Sheshi was listening to everything keenly. After I completed my 'dhuk bari dasthan' she rested her head on my chest and started playing with fingers which indicates she is thinking about something deeply! After good 10 minutes she sat with a jerk startling me with her sudden action, but her eyes were twinkling like STARS!
"Manny I have an idea! Whatever Nancy will tell you teach her exactly opposite and make it...ummm.. Kind of funny humiliation! And Nancy won't go alone even we both will go & will stay connected in Bluetooth! Whatever he says we will tell exactly opposite to Nancy which raises Nancy temper and next what will happen onl-"
"only god knows I completed her sentence!" we giggled and hi-five each other.
"Masti without me!" nandu told making a sad pout.. Ahh I just want to kiss her pout!
"She will mark her sandal size on your cheek if you kiss her" sheshi winked at me making me embarrassed!
"Sheshi bed-time!" announced nandu
"Nancy I will come with you tomorrow Pleachhhj! Before you start with the lecture of 'YOU WILL FAIL IF YOU WON'T ATTEND CLASSES!' let me remind you I have photographic memory so flunking in exam doesn't count as question! So I am coming tomorrow! No more question goodnight" she said or if would better if I mention ORDERED and jumped down my lap after giving me a good night kiss
"Manik lets prepare for the confession okay?" She asked. What should I say? Obviously yes.!
"Okay how you want to do it?"I asked because I can't teach her Gujarati in one day.
"Umm.. Do one thing I will tell what I wanted to say to dhruv and you translate it in Guajarati and write that Guajarati line in English. So that I can read. Okay?" I spoke with a shy smile and pinky cheeks. Huh! Dhruv joi lais tne (dekhlunga tuje)
I nodded helplessly and she brought a pen and a paper. We went to her balcony she sat on a chair and I sat opposite to her.
"Firstly hear my confession and tell me how it is and then we will translate okay" She said .I nodded. Kya kya sunna pad raha hai!!!!
Hello dhruv you are one hell of handsome hunk that have ever crossed my path. Each and every moment spent with you is the best moment of my life. I am so lucky to have you in my life. I feel so special when you take out time from your busy schedule just to spend time with me. Whenever you say you can see world in m eyes I feel my eyes are too special and unique. Whenever yup text me I am busy I can't come my heart beat becomes slow that table tennis ball. You don't know how much I love you dhruv. I love the way your hair covers your eyes when you are shy. I feel for your shyness dhruv.
She completed her full speech with a smile and a dream in her eyes and I somehow distracted myself not hear yet heard few words which did hurt me.
"Okay.??" She asked. kya bolu? Yahi ki ye sab me tumhare muh se mere liye sunna chahta hu.! Helplessly I just gave her a thumb up as approval as words got dried in my throat.
"Hello dhruv you are one hell of handsome hunk" she said dreamily and I clutched paper in one hand and pen in other. I stared at her with my nostrils flared.
"What?? Write na" She shyly said. Handsome huh! Use achha to me lagta hu. Wait and see what I will write in Gujarati.!
I wrote and she continued "Each and every moment spent with you is the best moment of my life" For a minute I almost forgot she wants to say this to dhruv. How I would have showered her face with kisses had she told me this.
"What's wrong with you why are you staring at me after my every sentence? As if I am speaking some alien language.!?" She brought me back from Nandini land. Best moment and all!! Huh!! You simply have no idea dhruv how much you are going to be embarrassed by nandu.
This continued for an hour with some glares, stares, and helplessness from manik and nandu totally lost in heaven with dhruv.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Park!
"All the best Nandu! You can do it!" I boosted her confidence but only I know how I was controlling not laugh!
"All the best Nancy!" sheshi gave her a good luck kiss.
I and sheshi hid in a basket tree.
There was a couple behind it!
Boy-Baby I can see whole world in your eyes
Girl- awe really I love you so much
Sheshi- Really bro, can you please tell what's happening in my class I missed my school today.
I palmed my face for sheshi question but they were scared with the sudden voice and left that place.
We and Nandu are connected through phone call. She has Bluetooth and we are on speaker!
After good 5-7 minutes Dhruv came in white and brown. Though I hate to accept it he is looking good. Okay okay Hot! Sheshi giggled seeing frowns on my forehead.
"Hello!" dhruv started the conversation!
"Dhruv I need to tell you something!" Nandu replied with lite red cheeks!
"Go on!"
"Dhruv, tu ekdum nalayak jewo vandro cho. ane na handsome to tu bilkul nthi. Hu potane bv kamnaseeb samju chu k tu malyo mane. Tre to kai kaam dhando chej nai jyare jov tyare galudiya ni jem mari pachhed j padyo hoi che. Taru dachu jov ne to kachra peti thi tru modhu chundo kri nakhwanu maan thai.pan pachi mne kachra peti par daya awe. Jyare tu ewu kene k tari akho ma duniya dekhai che tyare to tri aakho kadhi table tennis ramwanu man thai. Jyare tu message kri ewu kene k mara thi nai away e diwase maro duniyano savthi sukkhad diwas manu hu. Tne khbr nai bka hut ne ktlo napasand kru chu gandhara kutra. Tri jode etla paisa nthi k hair kapawu. Koik war to kasko ferav matha ma. Koik war to shak thai k tu chokro che k chokri. Chokri ni jem pacho sharmai.DAMAR NE SAFED KEHWDAVIS TU TO." she completed blushing like hell. And dhruv was confused between nandu's speech and expression! We giggled and hi-five each other.
"By the way Manny What's that meaning?!" Sheshi asked innocently!
"Dhruv you are such handsome male bitch I have ever seen. I will regret each and every of our talk. I am so unlucky that I met you. I guess you have no other work than roaming around me. Whenever you come to met me I feel like smashing your head with a waste bin but then I will think why to waste a waste bin on you. Whenever you tell you can see world in my eyes I feel like pulling your eyes and play table tennis with them. Whenever you text I am busy I can't come, that will be the happiest day of my life. You really don't know how much I hate you ugly dog. Don't you have enough money to go to saloon and have a haircut. At least comb your hair. I sometimes feel are you boy or girl. You are too shy. You face is darker compared to coal!" I completed and we broke into fits of laughter!
WRITERS POV!
Dhruv-"Nandu Tne khbr che tu su bole che.??(NANDU DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT ARE YOU SPEAKING?)"
'how dare he call her nandu! its only my right! ' manik thought
Manik-nandu he said you ugly
Nandini eyes widened
Manik- kewo nalayak che tu to!(YOU ARE SUCH A JERK! )
Nandu will repeat!
Dhruv- nandu mane em hatu k tu tara prem no izhar karva awi cho. Atlu sharmanak mane koi e nth kidhu
(NANDU I THOUGHT YOU CAME HERE TO CONFESS LOVE! I NEVER GOT SUCH HUMILIATED!)
Manik in mind: ye to kuch bhi nahi hai I can humiliate you more.
Manik-NANDU HE IS TELLING THAT YOU are NOTHING AND WASTE BIN! WASTE BIN NANDU!
WASTE BIN!
That's sentence raised nandini's temper and caught dhruv's collar!
And started beating him black and blue!
"kamina! how dare you compare me dustbin!" and caught his hair and started rotating his as if she is drawing circle with divider. She pulled his hair with such intensity he literally became bald head
Manik touched his soft hair in fear.
Sheshi spoke in utter shock- Manny I can see your future!
Manik replied gulping hid saliva -I feel the same!
Both were surprised+shocked+scared to see this wild Nandini.
Sheshi- Manny I guess we need to stop Nancy otherwise he will never be able to men's saloon.
Manik- I feel the same!
They both forcefully freed Nandini and literally dragged her but not before nandini giving last kick in Dhruv's gut!
