I Need u to be There.... For a little more than Always!!
Part 38:
Like any other weekend, this Sunday too Fab5 were going on with their usual practice session. And as soon as they ended the song, they heard a knock on the door.

Cabir opened the door and Nandini walked in,
Nandini: Ohk ohk.... Enough practice for today!! Lets go guys... I hv arranged some refreshments for you people.

Mukti: Thank God Nandini.... U r a savior!!

Nandini: I knw i knw... Now come...

Manik: No yr nandini.... Wait!! Guys, we still have to finish this off.... Nandini after some time plz!

Nandini: Manik.... U all hv been practicing for two hours now!! Its enough for today, lay back and relax.... U can finish it off tmrw as well, u still hv tym left.

Manik: But-

Nandini: No buts.... Now come, i know u r hungry too!!

Manik sighed in his defeat as all of them moved out of the music room and walked towards the end of the corridor to the front balcony. While Cabir said,
Cabir: Only u can handle this guy seriously!!

Manik gave a deadly glare to Cabir while they settled down and the servant served them. After a few minutes, Aliya closed her eyes and felt the cold breeze,
Aliya: Now these seems like a Sunday evening....

Cabir: Yeah... I just want it to be this way every week, with u all present around me!!
Cabir said as her turned towards the setting sun. But a voice interrupted him.

"And not me!!"
He smiled at the voice as he got up and hugged her, kissing her check.

Cabir: Of course u too..... But how come u r here suddenly!!

Navya: Nandu!

Cabir turned towards nandini who was smiling at them and passed a flying kiss to her. They again sat down when Manik smiled looking at Nandini and his phone started ringing, he picked up his phone and saw Dadi's call.

Manik: Hello Dadi... How r u??

Dadi: I m alright my son... How r u all there??

Manik: Everyone is good... We r sitting together only!! I miss u-
Manik was about to say something more, when Nandini snatched his phone and shouted,
Nandini: Hi DADI......

Manik looked at her sternly, but she was too busy to even notice him.

Nandini: Dadi I miss u so much... How r u?? Its been A MONTH since u hv gone... U know yesterday na.....
And it went on and on and on as Nandini walked back inside talking excitedly to Dadi.

While all Manik could do was to smile at her retrieving figure. Yes, a month had passed on after Dadi had gone to Dubai with his parents. And to be honest he did miss her, but not that much.

Nandini and Manik have grown a lot lot more closer in this one month. She had taken a position in his life, which he himself didn't know existed for anyone. Everything in his life was from her now and he wouldn't even complain.

His trance was broken by mukti as she threw a cushion over her.
Mukti: MANIK...... Get back to earth!!!

Manik just looked down and hid his smile while the others laughed.
Mukti: Yaar Manik seriously.... I don't get the two of u!!

Aliya: Me too... I mean really!! Its clearly, written on ur faces that u like each other, in fact Love each other.... U guys r together every freaking time, for like 24 hours a day.... U can't stop smiling at each other, can't spend even a few hours without the other and still.... Even after all this u r not together!!!
