As soon as nandini disappeared from the corridor cabir came from behind pillar....with crossed hands around his chest he kept looking at manik who again got busy in his cell phone.....he was inches away from cabir when he raised his head feeling someone's presence ..his mouth hung low finding cabir infront of him who gave him a lip pressed smile and said

Bara smile Kia jarha tha encircling his hand around manik's neck

Nhi wo to aise hi he stuttered unable to form any answer....

*Ohhh really* cabir mocked to which manik scratched his head sheepishly while cabir rewarded him with a punch on his back and which manik groaned looking at him *thje to mein baad mein btao ga mere dushmano se mil rha hai* cabir murmured while manik overheard him as he kept rubbing the sore area

They both entered the room where their all frnds were sitting discussing about their vacation plans....manik immediately jumped on bed and placed his one hand under his head raising it while cabir sat on setee

*kyon cabir beizzati ka dukh kuch kam hua* aliya mocked cabir and cabir who was drinking water chocked at her sentence.....he wiped it getting getting furious that his frnds were mocking him bcz of that girl......

*ab aise bhi baat nhi us larki ko to mein btao ga ke cabir se panga lena achaw nhi hota* cabir muttered as he gripped the bottle angrily which crumpled under his tight grip

*ohoo baby ko ghussa agya* rohan said pinching his cheeks teasingly and cabir didn't take a minute b4 punching him on his chest.....they kept cracking jokes while cabir's mind started processing on the ways to take revenge.....suddenly he shouted *I have an idea* he said excitedly getting up from setee to which everyone fell silent......he told them the whole plan and aliya was the first one to speak *but who will do it*

*mera jiggar manik kare ga na* he said with his voice laced with fake luv as he wanted to take revenge from manik too...to which manik said

*yaar ye Kia bkwaas hai why will I do it....m already against it...she is a girl yaar cabir common...be a man* he said groaning as he wasnt liking it at all.....

*Manik mere jaan* cabir said as he went towards manik and wrapped his arm around manik's neck gripping it tightly *agha jaan ko PTA chala tere acting karne ka to unhe kitna bura lge ga* he whispered in manik's ear and manik looked at him with irritated face

*ABBA theek khte hai shi ghatiya dost hai mere* he said as he pushed cabir and he fell from the bed groaning as he started rubbing his sore bum......

*Kia karna hai mjhe* manik said in distasteful tone as he bore his large fury filled eyes at cabir to which cabir gave him a cheeky smile

*************************

*Nandini I lost my phone* navya said in panick stricken tone as she shaked Nandini's arm

*ohoo navya have u checked properly* Nandini said shaking her head in disbelief as she knew how clumsy navya was.....she had the habit of misplacing things like that always and then cribbing later on

*yes nandini...it was with me when we went for dinner...but idk where is it now....I have checked the whole room....mama ne bhi call karne thi* she said with tensed face and nandini palmed her face looking at the drama queen...instead of finding it she was wasting her time in crying as if it could help her in locating her cell phone

*just stop crying and go check the dining hall...it must be there only* nandini said and navya again made a face *plzzz tm chale jao mjhe dar lgta hai* batting her eyelashes innocently she pleaded and nandini went away shaking her head

**************************

*cabir here it is* aliya said flashing him navya's mobile which she picked up at the dining hall when navya and her frnds were busy in eating dinner

*now that stupid miss will be here any moment to find her cell phone* cabir said smirking and as soon as he heard the footsteps he pushed manik who stumbled and he had to take support of wall to prevent himself from falling......cursing cabir he straightened himself as he prepared to face that Ms attitude.......the foot steps were getting louder and louder so manik hid himself behind the pillar and tightened the knot of stole that was hiding his face....as soon as she came near manik he came out from behind the pillar and pointed pocket knife at her....their plan was just to scare navya

*dont u dare shout or call someone* he threatened her thinking that she would oblige to him but moments he heard an ear piercing scream.........baffled at this unexpected situation he was taken back *chor chor (theif)* she screamed again and manik was quick enough to palm her face * chup hoja mere behn I dont wanna die this young* he said as he dragged her with him towards the storeroom......manik bolted the door and turned towards her after turning on the lights but he was shocked to see nandini there instead of navya

*look u dont need to get scared* but ignoring him she continued screaming to which manik jerked her towards himself by holding her arms and growled *m not a theif*

*no no stay away dont come near me* she said distancing herself from manik......meanwhile they heard footsteps of people.....nandini was about to shout when manik palmed her mouth and in protest her arms flew around and she yanked the stole which was covering manik's face while manik's hands fall off from her mouth and he looked at her with scared eyes thinking about what would happen If the people happen to come there

*navya was right......tm log ho hi ghatiya* she said with abhor *m going to tell everyone and then people will deal with u*

*ye cabir manhoos ne Khan phansaa dia* he cursed cabir as he moved closer and said in conciliating tone *see m sorry...ghalti to insaan se hojati haina* he batted his eyelashes cutely earning a deadly glare from nandini......he was about to say sth when continuous knocks on the door made him stop......he became alert and he shook his head at nandini pleading her thru his eyes to not even utter a word but on the other side was nandini.......looking at the pleading manik a smirk appeared on her lips as she took backward steps getting closer to the door while the intensity of shaking his head increased with her every step.......atlast he shouted *m sorry* but b4 she could register it he pushed her so she fell down while he jumped off from the window to save himself.......after sometime nandini got up rubbing her sore elbow and went to open the door which was being continuously knocked

*bache r u okay* an old man asked in concerned tone *where is the theif and did he hurt u* an other man asked and nandini lowered her head biting her lips nervously she spoke *woh it was lizard* she said as she had no prove that manik was there and as expected people started talking about the drama she created just bcz of a lizard.....meanwhile she heard a guy saying *these girls ufff...1 lizard thi aur isne puri building ko sar par uthaya Hua tha* nandini raised her head in shock....with gaped mouth she looked at manik who was cmnting about her *how the hell he came here..he just jumped off from window.....is he a ghost*

**********************

*kamine tere waja se tere waja se itna zaleel hona para mjhe* manik removed his one shoe from his foot and threw it at cabir's face which he catched efficiently and said in concerned tone *manik Beth ja mere jaan u r injured* with a lopsided smile to which manik just showed him his middle finger shutting him off.....yes manik had hurted himself as he jumped off from the window

*******************

It was 2 3 days after that incident....everything was back to normal....it was usual morning when manik and his frnds came out of their rooms for breakfast......sitting on the table at one corner of dining hall they were chatting in gud mood after giving their order.....as soon as their waiter went they started chatting in a friendly manner with the innumerable teasing....

The waiter was about to exit from the hall when a girl called him.....raising his eyebrows he went towards her.... *wo jo larka hai na red t-shirt mein usne Kia order Kia hai* the girl(nandini) asked *yes mam* with confused face *sorry mam it's against the.......* his sentence was cut off as nandini stuffed his pocket with money...patting his pocket she said *I hope it's all clear now*......she paused *now listen ......u have to make his order extra spicy.....like that extreme wala* she said with a dangerous smirk and that waiter gave her curious looks to which she shut himself by a glare.....she turned around but stopped and faced him again *and yeah dont forget to pick water bottles from his table*
*now u will see Mr theif what r the consequences of messing with nandini murthy*......after few minutes she returned back to her table which was 2 tables away from manik's table......as soon as she took her seat navya said *where were u nandini* *ohh I was just cmng* she said as she eyed laughing manik and for a moment she just got lost in that innocent face.....for a moment she regretted thinking about her revenge but she masked it soon as frowns replaced her beautiful smile

********************

Soon their breakfast was served and they all started savouring it with great zeal.....manik took 2 3 bites of his and his face flushed bcz of spicy food.....wiping the tip of his nose he shooed the thought away as he had specifically mentioned the waiter to make it less spicy.....but after two more bites his patience ended as he started coughing badly which caught everyone's attention......they searched for water while cabir and aliya who were sitting closer to him started rubbing his back but no water bottle was present at the table.......and the waiter was nowhere to be seen......they panicked as he was coughing but nandini out of nowhere came there with a water bottle....with a smile she forwarded the water bottle which manik took without a second thought and drank half of it in one go while others sighed in peace..... *why does it taste bitter* manik thought as soon as water seeped down his throat creating burning sensation......he tilted his head to look at nandini who was already looking at him smirking....*take one more sip* she said making her voice as sweet as possible... *no its okay* he said with frown on his forehead

*manik she is right take one more sip* suhana said in concerned tone *nhi m fine now* he resisted as cabir tried to make him drink again....... *m just cmng* he hurriedly said as he got up and left for his room....entering the washroom he puked all he had in breakfast and started sipping water slowly and the bottle crumpled under his tight grip

*that girl* he muttered angrily as he went towards the lift to join his frnds again but at lift he met with the most unwanted person at that time NANDINI MURTHY

*Mr theif u dont seem okay* she said batting her eyelashes cutely making puppy face

*UUU* he said as he marched towards her

*ohhhh wait wait Mr theif...u r already paying for ur first mistake*

*m not a theif dammit*

*here eat some icecream....it will relieve burning sensation* she said in attitude as she handed him a cornetto and left the lift leaving him wondering

As he was passing thru corridor cabir came there and encircled his hand around manik's neck *so how r u my frnd*

*peeche dafa ho* he said in distaste

*are yaar ghussa kyon horha hai.....larki hai yaar chor ab to larki se badla lega.....wese bhi we r here to enjoy* cabir repeated his words like a pro and ran looking at manik's pissed off face

*******************
