⏺WHAT WAS THAT ? 🤔⏺

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MANIK'S POV

I don't know I was in "Aww " all the time.
I didn't realised when I placed my palms on my own cheek and place my elbow on thighs and kept looking at her.

"God knows "
why I was looking at her like that when I didn't even take a look at my female employees too.

"What was that ?"
is the sole question I continuously asked myself. Ummm.
Yeah like "100 times"
And till now I am not able to answer it.

"Why ? "

And the answer is again...

"I don't know. Still unknown to my stupid mind. Huh ! "

Then only I notice that she turn back to look at me to give away her so charming smile that managed to made sure to widen my eyes a little more than before.
Maybe a way of thanks. I guess.
Due to sitting in a Dark row she wasn't able to figure out who I'm.

Well I'm sure.
Either she will be shocked to see such a big tycoon over here roaming at a normal place or maybe she doesn't know me.

I didn't even realise the time.
I was actually staring at her all the time or maybe looking at her with the emotion which I didn't felt all these years.

No, How it can be that ? I am totally confused now.

Then only my heart answered after a long time.

Love ❤

My mind resisted accepting the fact.
That how it can be love ?

Then only my heart interrupted
Why can't it be Love ?

That too soo early and I even don't know her ? Mind asked...

That is love... Love which.. Just happens.

My heart answers back pushing me to the pool of confusion like finding a needle in a room full of cotton.

Then I just ignored my inner thoughts for a while.

(As they were actually disturbing my staring session 😉.)

I have no idea that what happened to her!!!
She stands up and started going towards exit.
Seeing her going, I also stood up and soon her leg got stuck from the carpet and she was going to fall to touch the floor but I just rushed towards her and she landed up on me.
As now I was lying on the floor and she was  above me.
That too just inches away.
I hold her from shoulders.
Otherwise there was no doubt that we would have...

Exactly what Anyone would think event what my not so confused heart would have thought.

She gasps & look at me nervously realizing our position.
Soon I make her get up & then i lift my body up to stand.

"Sorry Sir " her cute voice just made me freeze for a second.

I  have no idea that in just first meeting I'll witness some real feelings for her.
And which is just becoming strong by every single minute.

"No it's okay "
I say immediately not making her feel uncomfortable with my stares & I left from there leaving my friends behind.

I didn't know what to do or how to react... I just left the place... Don't know why? I felt to have some "Me "
Time...

On the way to my mansion I messaged cabir that I had some urgent work and that's why he don't need wait for him...

---------------SPLIT ----------------

AT MANSION...

The minute I entered my secret room...
A dark room like me... Which not even my friends know about...
I just switched off my phone and layed on the bed...

"Her eyes "

"Her smile "

"Her Cuteness "

"Her pout "

"Her Everything "was just not getting out of my mind...

"I don't wanna love her "that's all I said after one hour being silent...

"I don't wanna give her my darkness because of my past "...

"And She will obviously say NO, to a boy like me after getting to know the reason that why I am away from my own parents... "

"She won't trust me... Just like my parents...
Why will she even trust you ? "I questioned myself...

In fury I broke the vases that those just broke in uncountable pieces... Just like I'm from inside...

If I had been with my family then my friends will be the first to know about this feeling of mine... And I must have been smiling like a idiot lover...

But it's not the case now... 😑

Then I saw myself in the mirror towards me...

"A Whole messed up state of mine "

I decided not to think about her from now... And will make sure that my friends also shouldn't know about it...

Then I came out of my room and entered my actual room... I took out my coat and placed it on the table... And left to freshen up...

Then I made myself comfortable in my casual wears and had a coffee...

While sipping the hot coffee, I took out my laptop and started getting engrossed in it...

Just to get that girl's thoughts out of my head... But I was actually making fool of myself by trying these tricks but I had hope too with these tricks...
How silly of me na?? 😅

-----------------SPLIT -------------------

NANDU'S POV ...

"Waise Aaj unhe maine thk se thank you taq nhi bola"... Saying this she pouted and sat on bed thinking of the tall guy she met today...
(" Today I didn't even say thanks to him... ")

"I was so upset to listen that some MM booked the whole theatre and for a second I thought that we won't be able to watch it... But it was really unexpected that he agreed...

SO SWEET OF HIM NA... I THINK I COULD MEET HIM AGAIN SO THAT I CAN SEE HIM PROPERLY BECAUSE OF DARKNESS I WASN'T ABLE TO SEE HIM... She smiled 😅to herself grabbing the pillow while holding the hot mug of coffee and gazing at the stars✨✨🌠...

"YAAR Humein kuch nhi btaya aur chala gya... Mukti bursted out in anger standing at the entrance of Alia's mansion...
( Dude he didn't even cared to tell us before leaving Huh...)

"Mukti , Just calm down... Kuch urgent aagya hoga tabhi manik gya hoga na!! "dhruv reasoned to calm our lady bheem...
( " Mukti, just calm down... Something urgent must have come so manik would have left for that !! ")

"Hamesha kaam, kaam, kaam...😣😣
Hadd hai Yaar... 😡😡😤😤
Hum Kitna try karte hai usse ek happy environment de... Apne past se usse nikale.... Lekin he is just soo stuck there today also... She sighed sadly thinking about manik... 🙁😞
( " Always work work, work, work... 😣😣
It's enough dude... 😡😡😤😤
How much we have tried to give him a happy environment... To get him out of his past... But he is just stuck there today
also... ")

"Hum koshish kar rahe hai na mukti...
Don't give up... Ab manik ke liye humaare alava aur konn hai ?
Humne give up kardiya toh manik ko kaise Hum uske past se bahar nikalenge...

Alia said as a matter of fact... and placed hands on mukti's shoulder to calm her...

( " We are trying na mukti... Don't give up like that... Tell me that other than us who is beside manik ? If we would give up so easily then how will we make him move on from his past ? )

" Manik kuch khulke kehta bhi Nhi hai Yaar... When he will pour his heart to us na tab hi kuch hoga cabir... Have you thought something about this? "
Dhruv said having ray of hope for his buddy...
( " Manik doesn't says anything openly dude... When he will pour his heart to us na then only we can do something about it cabir... Have you thought about this? " )

" Listen guys... I guess abhi ek -do hafte ke liye manik ko Thoda Akela rehne dete
hai... "cabir said...
( " Listen guys... I guess we have to leave him alone for one _two weeks... Let him be... " )

"Phir " ... "But aise Kaise manik ko Akela chodd de cabir... Have you gone mad ? everyone asked him being curious to know what cabir is upto...
( " Then... How can we leave manik just like that ? That too alone... Have you gone mad ? )

" He needs time guys... Humaare chakkar mein usne kabhi apne liye time diya hi Nhi... Yaa toh woh kaam mein hota tha ya Fir humaare Saath... He needs some alone time... understand guys " cabir tried to convince them...
( " He needs time guys... Because of us he didn't give time to himself... Either he is working or he is with us... He needs some alone time... Understand guysss " )

"All hmmed " nodding their heads in a yes...

"Then I will go and talk to manik... "
Cabir said with hope that now his plan works...

---------------SPLIT -----------------

AFTER TWO WEEKS...

Cabir went to manik's mansion to wake up manik... As it was Sunday and straightly went towards manik's room...

He sat near him on the bed...

"manik "he called and ruffled his hairs...

"mom " he said slowly and softly...

Which kinda surprised cabir...

"Manik, Main cabir " he said...

Listening this he got up instantly and hugged cabir...

"Cabir, sab gussa Ho na mujhse...!!!
Sorry Yaar, mujhe uss din Tumhe aise Nhi chodkar aana chahiye tha..."
Manik said all which his heart said...
( " Cabir, I know everyone is angry with me...!!! Sorry dude, I shouldn't have left u guys behind without informing you about my leave... " )

Patting his back ,"Manik... Koi bhala tujhse gussa kaise hoga... Don't worry Yaar...bas Thoda disappointed hai... "
Cabir said the truth...
( " Manik... Why and how will anyone be angry on you ... Don't worry dude... They are just disappointed... " )

Listening this manik's expression changed... 😞
"I know... Yaar cabir... Main kya karta? Urgent call aayi thi... And he stopped suddenly...
( I know... Cabir... What to do Huh? An urgent call came ...)

"Manik "cabir called and manik turned his head towards cabir...

Manik straightened his face having no expressions on it...

"Mujhe MR AND MRS. MALHOTRA ne bulaya hai court mein...
Kyunki dada, dadi ne jo property mere naam pe likhi thi woh chahte hai ki woh main khud Unko dedun... Manik said in his cold tone...
( " I have been called to court by Mr and Mrs Malhotra...
Coz the property of grandpa and grandma which was in my name is now wanted by them so they want my signatures... ")

This surprised cabir... 😬😯😳

"Haan toh Aaj Bas kuch signatures karke aana hai Fir aaram se baithkar yahan baat karte hai with my Fab 5, my real family..." Manik smiled at cabir...
( " Yeah so today some signatures has to be done and then we will sit and talk comfortably with my Fab 5, my real
family... ")

And cabir nodded... And smiled listening his last line... But he fully understood that something is definitely wrong with manik and now sudden call from his family just for property...

Cabir knew these things would have definitely disturbed manik's mind... That's y he now also looks disturbed...

But pausing his own thoughts cabir told manik to freshen up fast so cabir will accompany him to court...

Soon Manik went to freshnup and cabir till then walked in his room and then his eyes landed up on something which made cabir curious and surprised too...

He went towards it and picked it up and saw it... And thought that how it is like even possible that it is in manik's room ?

Have I missed something which is important for me? He questioned himself being confused... 🤔
