He had me pinned against the wall outside of his dorm late at night. He was staring down at me angrily. I was confused to say the least. "Are you okay, Manik?" "No," He shook his head. "Pissed." I was about to ask why but then he continued. "I'm sup...
Coool, so here is the next chapter. And its long about 2.9k words sooo have fun reading it. Some parts are boring of this part! But not thatttttt bad! 😂 Alsooo I am not happy with the response I am getting, soo I would really appreciate some in-line comments, I love them but don't get them😅 Nandinis POV-
I'm not looking forward to today at all.
Thankfully, Dhruv had told Manik I couldn't go so I didn't have to. But, he's sure to find me at the carnival.
And possibly running into Manik isn't even the worst part. I have to kiss hundreds of guys today - even if it is a mere kiss on the cheek or on the lips, it was still unnerving. Who let me sign up for this?
Kill me now, please. Get me out of my misery.
I pulled the black, crop top over my head and the high-waisted skirt. As for my hair, I 'Ariana Grande styled' it out. I pulled part of my hair back into a small ponytail and the remaining of my hair was in light, pretty curls.

"Damn, girl!" Mukti exclaimed. "And, yes, Nandu, that was a compliment."
I rolled my eyes and finished applying makeup. "Are you coming?" I asked.
"Later. I have to make up a test."
"Okay." I slid on my black flats and grabbed my phone and purse. "See ya, Mukti."
Since Manik has this magical power to show up whenever and wherever, I looked around outside before I walked out to make sure the coast was clear. I began walking to the carnival, which was being held at the lawn near the local library, and felt a tap on my shoulder. I silently prayed that it wasn't Manik.
I turned and found Dhruv and somebody else. He looked slightly familiar, but again I couldn't put my finger on the name. I must live under a rock or something.
"Hey, Nandini." Dhruv greeted with a smile.
"Hey. Who's your friend?"
"Cabir." Oh, Cabir. As in, Manik's best friend. He gave me a slight wave.
"You're the one that Manik invited with us?"
"Yeah."
"Why can't you come?" He asked, while looking me up and down, taking in my attire.
"Um, well, I have to work at the carnival. I didn't remember until my roommate reminded me." I explained.
"Oh." He nodded, slowly.
"Manik's on his way over now, Cabir." Dhruv said. "Need a ride?" He asked while turning to me.
"No, I'm good. Thanks, though!" I waved and walked away, probably suspiciously fast.
I don't particularly want to get caught by Manik just yet. Sure, it's bound to happen at some point in time today, but not so early.
I reached the vast 10 acres of land next to the library, which was now all colorful and decorated for the carnival.
