Manik and Nandini were hugging each other tightly. He pulled her more closely into his arms and caressed her back; he rocked her into his arms like a small baby. Nandini broke the hug feeling a bit conscious, she bit her lip in confusion and took some steps back. The biting of her lip was something that never failed to turn him on. Manik smirked and shook his head. “Can’t control”he whispered to himself. Then he took a deep breath and stepped close to her, she stepped back as a natural response.

“Ouch!” uttered Nandini as her head hit with the cabinet.

Manik smiled mischievously “mujhse door jaogi toh aise hi dard hoga” he whispered.

Nandini frowned and tried to move way but he blocked her by pressing his body over hers. She looked up to him with an intention to shout but ended up in admiring his sharp jaw line with her eyes. He smiled affectionately and leaned down to touch her face with his. She accepted his touch and closed her eyes to feel him. He held her hands and putted them over his shoulders, closing all the gaps between them.

Slowly and softly he kissed on her forehead, her breath became faster, she opened her eyes and to witness those blazing emotions that pulled her like a magnet. She found herself from tiptoeing and reaching up to his gorgeous cheeks. She kissed him on his cheek, he closed his eyes as a natural reflex and his hold over her waist tightened. She loved his tight grip. Then she reached up to finger his cheery red lips, she became a little surprised when he sucked on her finger. But his warm lips were giving magical sensations to her by being in contact with that trembling finger. She pulled out that finger feeling shy, but he did n’t want the sensation to go away. He was impatient now. His hand immediately found its heaven as he cupped her face, she leaned forward as if she was offering him to taste her lips. Without wasting a further second he sucked on her lips lovingly. Nandini was frozen, she did n’t know how to match up with that heavy passion, so she just absorbed the tender that his lips were giving to hers. 

After breaking free of that passionate kiss, she placed her head on his chest, sighing all the way. Her lips brushed on the skin of his chest and the sound her heavy rhythmic breath was making him crazy, he wanted shower to all his love to her.

Nandini was still under the trance, she was intoxicated by the warmth of his hug and that blissful kiss.

All of a sudden Manik broke the hug and yelled “yeh kya kar rahe ho, leave me, Oh Aiyappa yeh maine kya kar dia” uttered Manik.

Nandini looked at him with confused expression and he burst out laughing “aise kya dekh rahi ho, I am just helping you, tum abhi yeh sab hi bolne wali thi naa” said Manik as he teased her.

Nandini became angry and looked away. Manik laughed “that’s what you do, something in your mind tells that Manik ko choona ek PAAP hai, it’s a big sin, but you can’t stop yourself from doing this sinful act” he said then held her arms and made her face him. He raised her face with his thumb and straightened her crooked eyebrows “Nandini, I will do everything to make you believe that the feelings that we have for each other are not sinful” he said.

Nandini could not stop herself from looking into his passionate eyes, both were lost in each other’s eyes.

“Kya tuta, kya tuta? Manik nei kuch kia kya?” uttered Navya as she barged inside the room with Cabir following her.

Navya looked at the broken showpieces and then to Manik and Nandini who were staring each other.

Cabir laughed and clapped his hands. “Wah kya tod for wala romance tha, totally wild” he winked.

Nandini felt embarrassed. Navya became irritated and she pulled Nandini’s hand as they both went out of the room. 

At the other room, “Nandu, tune usko mara kya?” asked Navya innocently.

Nandini frowned  “kash maar paati, I am such a dumb that I ended up in hugging him and…. anyways tu kaha thi? U said u would help me in staying away from Manik, kaha gaya tera promise?” said Nandini.

“Arreh uss Cabir nei hume rok lia, usse jhhagra karte karte time ka pata hi nahi chala. You know Nandu usse jhagra karke I feel really good” said Navya as she smiled dreamily.

Nandini looked at her with confused expression “What?! anyways ab kya kare? Mai hargiz usse saath akele bahar nahi jaungi, nahi toh bohat kuch ho jayega” said Nandini.

“Ha sahi bola, uske intentions sahi nahi hai” uttered Navya. 

After some time, Navya went down to the hall and started reading a magazine. Cabir and Manik were waiting for Nandini “Oye Madhubala! Teri saheli kaha hai? Manik kab sei wait kar raha hai” asked Cabir.

“Pata nahi” said Navya calmly as she hummed a song.

“Manik, tu iss pagal ko chor I will go and call her” said Cabir as he went upstairs.

After a while Cabir came back and he had a worried expression on his face “Nandini upar nahi hai, damn it! She ran away” uttered Cabir and Navya laughed.

Manik was angry “What the hell, how can she do that? She is not even answering my calls” uttered Manik in frustration as he rushed out of the house. 

Navya was giggling and Cabir was worried, just then he got an idea. Cabir picked up a knife from the fruit bowl and placed it on Navya’s neck “Cabir, tum pagal ho gaye go kya, hatao isse” said Navya in a broken voice. Cabir laughed like a villain “bol Nandu kaha hai, varna I will kill you, tujhe pata hai that I am mad” said he.

“Accha bolti hu, she has gone to my hostel, sacchi” said Navya.

Cabir removed the knife, took a deep breath and sat beside her. Navya was still gulping, Cabir laughed on seeing her condition “badi fearless banti hai, plastic ki knife dekh ke darr gayi” he teased. Navya pinched him.

Cabir called Manik and informed him about Nandini. After 30 mins Manik called back and informed that Nandini was not at hostel.

Navya and Cabir became tensed and started calling Nandini’s classmates and Mukti.

At a dark den, “Kaun ho tum? And why have you brought me here? Let me go” uttered Nandini as she tried to free her tied hands.

A tall guy appeared there “Itni jaldi vul gayi mujhe sweetheart! Ha shadi jo ho gayi hai, but see I kept my promise maine tumse kaha tha that I will get you by any means” uttered the guy. Nandini looked at him with disgust “Just shut up Jay! I never liked you, tum humesha mere peeche pare rahte thei in college and when you tried to touch me maine tumhari complain ki thi, that’s how you got rusticated, ab uska badla lene aye ho nah? But you will never succed” said Nandini.

Jay smirked “Ha, badla lena hai mujhe, tumhari vajaise I drank so much that night and hit a person, ek saal ki saza kaat ke aya hu. Now you will face the same pain as me” he uttered.

Nandini tried to shout but he hit her head with a stick, as a result Nandini became unconscious. 

The whole day went by and there was no news of Nandini, Manik was searching for her like crazy. Nandini’s mom blamed Manik for the disappearance of her daughter. Cabir and Navya tried to defend but there was no use. Nandini’s dad and uncle had filed a police complaint. 

In Manik’s car,
Manik had tears in his eyes; Cabir was shocked because he had not seen his friend like that before. Manik was eyeing Nandini’s picture “Where have you gone? Itna gussa? How can you even think of leaving me alone” uttered Manik. Just then his brain clicked and he remembered that he had installed GPS in Nandini’s phone so that he could make out her whereabouts all the time. “Oh no! Cabir I am so silly! Iss tension mei, mai toh vul hi gaya about GPS” said Manik. “Arreh Ha! Mai vi vul gaya” uttered Cabir as they both tracked down Nandini’s location.
