Falling for you wasn't falling at all,
It was walking into a house and suddenly knowing that you're home.

Next 5 days went good. Both Manik and Nandini were now friends. They used to talk on phone and chat. Manik wanted to meet Nandini many times but she was not free as the main touch up was going on in the house. They decided to meet on the day when Nandini will show the house to everyone.

It was the day. Nandini was damn excited and nervous to show the house to everyone. It was the first high class project of her career and she had done a lot of hard work for this project.

Nandini woke up and sent a message on their group.

Me: Hey guys! So is everyone ready to see your newly designed house?

Diva: Off course babe.

Mukku: I'm so excited!

Dhruv: Super ready.

Darling: My sweetheart always ready.

Navu: Hum to pehle din se hi pagal ho rahe the ghar dekhne ke liye.

Me: So everyone be there at 10.

Nandini's P.O.V

I was reading everybody's messages when a personal message popped in.

Manik: Hey champ, I know you're nervous. Don't be. We all know how talented you are. Don't take stress and please have your breakfast because lunch we all will have together. All the best😃

Me: Thankyou so much Manik. This was exactly what I needed right now. I was damn nervous. But not anymore. You're the best.

Manik: Always there for you. Okay see you at the house. Bye.

Me: Bye.

It felt so good to talk to all of them and specially him. Manik. It feels great to talk to him. Today will be the first time we will meet after being friends. I'm so excited. I just hope all of them like the house.

I got ready and had my breakfast and then left for Fab5 house.

I reached there at 9. I met Lara there.

"Lara is everything done?" I asked her.

"Yes mam. You don't have to worry. Everything is done." Lara replied.

"That means we just have to wait for them to arrive." I stated as a fact.

Lara nodded her head dramatically. I shook my head in disbelief. We were waiting for them in the garden outside. Then at 9:50 cabir and Navya arrived.

I greeted them. We were talking and waiting outside only for the others. Then Dhruv and Alya came.

As soon as Alya came, she pounced on me.

"Gosh Nandini I'm so soo soooo excited to see the house." She said.

I smiled at her. Then Mukti came.

"Nanduuuu!!" She came running to me. "Please mujhse wait nahi hora ab. Andar chalte hai na." She said with a puppy face. Godd! Dramebaaz.

"Mukku let Manik also come na. Then we all will go." I said calmly but inside I was impatient. Kaha reh gaya yeh ladka.

"Sweetheart ye tu Mr.Malhotra se Manik par kab aagayi?" My Darling I mean Cabir asked me.

Ab kya bolu isko mai?

"Wo-woh darling, we-we are now fri-friends." I stammered badly. I said the truth but it felt like I was saying the wrong thing.

Cabir was about to say something, when he arrived.

Gosh! Ye ladka humesha itna handsome kaise dikhta hai. Haaye! Meri pyaari aakhein itni garmi kaise jhelegi! Cheesy much! Hahaha. But seriously he look so hot.

"Hey guys." He said with a smile.

"Finally you came Manik. Nandu ab please andar chale?" My impatient Mukku asked me.

I nodded. Mukku, Alya and Navya literally ran inside. Crazy people. But jaise bhi hai mere dil ke tukde hai.

Me and Manik were walking in the last. We were meeting for the first time after being friends. I wanted to talk to him but didn't knew what to talk. Then finally he took the initiative to start the conversation. Thank God.

"Hey." He said.

"Hii." I said.

"So abhi bhi nervous ho?" He asked.

"Thodi si." I decided to be honest.

"Nandini, don't worry. Everyone will like the house." He said assuring me.

"What about you?" I wanted to know his thoughts.

"I will love it." He said with a smile.

"Without even seeing you are saying this?" I asked him.

"Because I know you've worked really hard for this." He said with a smile.

I smiled back at him and we entered the house. I stood in front of everyone and started speaking.

"So guys now let me give you all a tour of your newly designed house."

"How is it guys?" I asked everyone.

All were gaping at me. Kisi ke muh khule huye the. Kisi ki aakhein bahar aane wali thi. Aur kisi kisi ke sath dono ho raha tha.

"Guys." I said a little loudly. Then everyone said together.

"Woww!" Dhruv said.

"Oh my God!" Alya squealed.

"Damn!" Mukti said.

"Sabse best." Navya said.

"It's amazing." Cabir said.

"Perfect." Manik said.

"Thankyou." I smiled at them.

Navya said, "Hum to yeh soch rahe hai ki agar ye sab itna sundar hai to humare bedrooms kitne sundar honge." She said with dreaming eyes.

"I second you Navya." Both Mukti and Alya said at the same time. We all laughed at them.

"Guys then what are we waiting for. Come let's see the bedrooms." I said.

"Yayyyy!!!" Alya squealed.

We all moved upstairs to see the bedrooms.
