Hello guys! I am so grateful to you all for being so understanding all the while! I am glad you consider my stories worth the wait and I will try my best to give you all the best I can, so here is an update and let me remind you all one thing, that I have changed my writing style, Yes! You all read right! The style which I use for Forever & Always and Simply Friends or....? Is replaced by that of my other stories coz now I feel comfortable in writing like that not like this, hope you all will not mind and no problem if you all want the same writing style, I will write in that way also if you all have any problem, it's just that I prefer that writing style much better than this one and stories look more mature in that style! Hope you are getting me! Read this update and if you all are nit comfortable and then you all can always come to me , I will write it again in the same old writing style :)
Enjoy<3

Woah! What the hell!? How can this be possible? Like seriously Madhyam! And all this while Sir was pointing it on Manik! I knew it from the beginning that Manik was not like that! He can never be wrong! He is such a gem of person! Anyways, the truth is out but partially, coz Navya is not sure, she is just suspicious about him, maybe it's just a guess! That means we have to do more investigation about it!

"You aren't sure? Are you?"

I asked Navya as I raised my eyebrows while Navya bobbed her head in a yes as I face palmed myself.

"Nandu, I am 99.9% sure that it is Madhyam! Guess why?"

Navya spoke as she glanced at me hopefully but I was in no mood to play guess game with her coz it will just waste time and in our case "Time is money" and I just glared at her which was enough for her to understand my emotions and she sighed in disappointed.
"Okay, I understood what you meant! You don't want to guess na, okay fine! You have changed alot Nandini Murthy, I don't know where is my best friend who used to answer the lamest questions I asked but never said a no, but this Nandini is different! Where have you left my bestie huh?"

Oh god! This melodramatic girl! She is such a dramebaaz! I agree I used to answer her questions without a word just for the sake of her happiness but now the thing was different! I wanted to get Manik out of all this as soon as possible and after knowing the real mastermind behind this, I wanted to get him behind bars and clear Manik's name! Yeah, I agree, that only Sir was doubting Manik but why should anyone have a doubt regarding Manik's character?! I won't let any stain affect his image, after all he was a pure soul with a golden heart.
But this Navya was all into wasting my time in all her stupid guess games! Ugghh! I hate her for wasting my precious time like this!

"Oye meri drama Queen! Sorry na, I am really fed of all this and want to get out of all this as soon as possible, Tell me everything quickly na, No guess games and all ! Please?"

I requested her with pleading eyes as I watched her melting down! Though, how much she worries me, how much she irritates me, how much she wastes my time but the fact is she is a true friend and is a sweetheart! I love her and I am glad to have a person like her in my life, so supporting and so caring, After all she was the one who gave me support when I left my family! I can't thank her enough for doing so much for me!

"It's okay! I understand! But I am excusing me just because you are tired from all this otherwise you would have seen the terrifying avatar of Navya Naveli exclusive for her best friend Nandini Murthy! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

She cutely spoke as she did the famous villain laugh and I almost fell on the bed unable to control my laugh but Navya after giggling a bit sat beside me seriously and I also sat looking at her as she told me her encounters with Madhyam and also told about a conversation that Madhyam had with an unknown person asking him to meet him and finalize a so called deal that would be the most powerful weapon against him! Nandini Murthy, gear up! This one night will change everything!

Navya also told me about a Valentine's Special Party which was going to be held in the hotel and Madhyam will definitely be coming! So what could be better than keeping his eyes on him and watching will deal all the way not getting caught! But I don't think he would be so foolish to deal in public, he would definitely choose a silent place while everyone would be enjoying the party! I have to find the place that Madhyam would be using to finalize the deal! There is a lot of work to be done Miss Murthy! Get up and start!

"Navya, we need to get ready as soon as possible! We have to find the place that Madhyam will be using for his deal! We have to check out the place very nicely, so that we have a hint, where he will be when he his client will come to meet him."

I spoke taking out my dress from my bag while Navya was still sitting and watching me to which I snapped my fingers before her to get her out of her dreamland which was I guess of Cabir, It seemed they got close during our absence, I don't know what happened and I am not sure also, but it seems like a love story is blooming between the two! The facial expressions, the secret eye talks that they shared when we arrived said it all! Oh gosh! Everyone here is turning love sick!

Navya also stood up and started getting ready, we both wore evening gowns, I wore a blood red off shoulder
which had a huge artificial star diamond on the chest, silver danglers and a silver star pendant, I left my hairs open and applied a light makeup and wore a red stilettos, though I wanted to wear something low heeled coz who knows when we have to run to get something or to save ourselves but if I didn't wore heels it will be more hard for me to walk properly as there will be risk when I will stumble down ! But I know someone is there to hold me when I stumble and will always save me before I fall and that is Manik!
Am I falling in love with him?

"Nandu!, We are getting late! You only told to get ready fast and now you are in your dreamland! By the way whose dreamland it is? Manik's na?"

Navya spoke teasingly and my mouth shaped in a 'O' ! How did she get to know but isn't it obvious? She stayed with Cabir that's why I am linking her with him and I stayed with Manik, that's why she is linking me with him but to be honest, it feels good to be linked with him, really good, best actually!

We both got down the stairs and started going inside the Hall where the party was to be held and as we were moving closer, we heard a tune which was soothing and was familiar too, it was of Manik!

Itni mohabbat karo na
Main doob na jaaun kahin
Waapas kinaare pe aana
Main bhool na jaaun kahin
Dekha jabse chehra tera
Main toh hafton se soya nahin

We entered the hall to see Manik sitting on a chair with his guitar and students especially girls surrounding him and Cabir on his side watching him sing, and as soon as we entered, Manik and Cabir saw us and were mesmerized with us and the same was with us too, Manik was not looking less than a Greek God wearing an black Armani Tuxedo with hair gelled up perfectly, my eyes were glued to him.

Bol do na zara
Dil mein jo hai chhipa
Main kisi se kahunga nahi
Main kisi se kahunga nahi

He sang coming dangerously close to us and my heart beats were so fast that I was sure my heart will jump into my hand.He forwarded his hand to me for dance and I happily agreed and placed my hand on his, was my hand made just to fit in his?

Mujhe neend aati nahi hai akele
Khawabon mein aaya karo
Nahi chal sakunga tumhare bina main
Mera tum sahara bano
Ik tumhe chahne ke alaawa
Aur kuch humse hoga nahi

He sang as twirled me two times as we entwined our hands for a step and we danced sensuously sharing numerous eye locks and our breathes getting hitched because of the other one and guess what we found Cabir and Navya also dancing beside us and were lost in each other we both smiled to them and continued our dance as Manik pulled me towards him for a step and I felt goosebumps all over my body because of him! Oh gosh, he affects me so much

Bol do na zara
Dil mein jo hai chhipa
Main kisi se kahunga nahi
Main kisi se kahunga nahi

He stopped singing which we didn't wanted to stop and the interesting part was the song he was singing was about,the hero asking the heroine to tell the inner feelings about him, and Manik's expressions in the song were telling it all,did he purposely chose this song?
