When Manik reached college, they found a circle formed by people, when he peeped he found Nandini beating a guy with her shoe. "No no poor man, he is gone"
"Shit Nandini stop it" Aarav shouted reaching her
"Bhaya stay out of it, this bastard made Riya cry let me kill him"

"Bhaya he needs such beatings, now he will stay away from her"
"Ok calm down let us eat, you didn't had breakfast" Manik said
"I am not hungry"
"Nandini relax ok, bechara he is unable to walk"
"Suits him"
"By the way,will you have some sandwiches?"
"No" she with anger left them
"She needs to cool down" Manik said running to her.

"Nandini listen, cool down ok, sit here I will bring a coffee for you"
"Manik please I don't need anything, and why the hell you always irritate me"
"No I am making you cool down"
"By irritating me more"
"No by showing my concern and care"
"Manik not again, please! It's limit now, stop flirting with me, I already said it's so frustrating"

"Nandini how do I make you believe me?"
"You can never" she said going away. Manik kept looking at her. "Chal let us go" Aarav said
"Why she don't believe me Aarav? It hurts yaar, why?" He said with tears
"I shouldn't say this but, I think you should show her instead of saying it"
"Means?"
"You figure it out Manik, I really feel sorry for you as a friend" he patted his back.

Manik is depressed all day. When he is on bed he started thinking about Aarav words, "how to show that I love her? Whatever I do she don't acknowledge it"
Manik got up and started scrolling in room. He didn't get any idea, he checked google, after watching lots of websites he got confused a lot. He slept tired
