Do read the note at the end. Enjoy Reading ❤

Seeing her so uncomfortable Manik made her look upwards but still she was anxious. Looking at her facial expressions he tried to understand that what actually happened but he failed so he asked.
"What's wrong?"

Nandini moving away from him not making any eye contact said
"Nothing"
she said stammeringly

Holding her hand he yanked her closer and coming dead close to her, he asked
"Don't lie to me Nandini. You're very bad at it. "

Hearing his words Nandini snapped up at him and pushing him away she said
"You're thinking too much Manik."

Nandini's POV
What should I tell you Manik. That you're affecting me. That your presence and whatever you say affects me to the core of my heart. I don't know what these new feelings are. I'm myself so confused. I don't know what I feel for you. Everything is so confusing that I'm not able to understand. What should I name this I don't know? And your behaviour it's so weird. At times you're rude to me than suddenly you're so caring. I want to trust you but then your behaviour makes me take a step back. I can't explain you Manik. I can't until and unless I get my answers and I will definitely get that.!!

Nandini was lost in her own world thinking about the situations. Then suddenly getting irritated Manik again said
"Listen Nandini I'm done with the drama so please tell me what's wrong?"

"Ohh really Manik. I'm doing drama then what are you doing? Isn't that drama too? "
Said Nandini.

"So you've decided that you won't tell me?"
Asked Manik

"Do you still doubt Manik Malhotra?"
Said Nandini

"What is your problem Nandini why are you so stubborn?"
said Manik coming closer to her and holding her arms tightly.

This angered Nandini and she pushed Manik with great force and due to the push he slipped on the wet mud over there and he fell in the wet mud.

And seeing him all decked up in mud Nandini broke into laughter which angered Manik but then seeing that she's laughing whole heartedly after s many days in front of him. It was the first time that she was laughing like this Manik's anger subsided. And even he smiled widely seeing her so happy like this. Nandini who was still laughing moved towards Manik and sat on his level and said
"Aww Manik so sad. You know now this is called drama. Enjoy Mr. Eiffel Tower."

And with this Nandini got up and as she turned around to move further Manik got up and grabbed her arms turned her around and pulled her closer and spoke just near her ears
"If this is called drama then how's that possible that you'll be out of it."
And saying this he caressed her cheeks and her exposed arms and shoulders with his mud filledhands. And Nandini who was lost in his spell didn't realised what he intended to do but as soon she felt his touch she realised that Manik has made her dirty too and angrily she pushed him.

"What the hell Manik? How dare you do this?"
said Nandini angrily looking at herself.

"Oh you wanna know how wait I'll tell you..... Oh wait wait rather I'll show you."
saying this Manik again bent down and took a handful of mud in his palms.

Seeing this Nandini widened her eyes and warned him saying
"Don't you dare Manik."

"Challenge Accepted Peanut."
said Manik

As soon as he said he threw that ball of mud on her making Nandini's cloths all dirty. This angered Nandini even more keeping her handbag aside even she started throwing balls of mud on Manik. And this kick started the mud fight between the duo. And while fighting without even realising they were dead aclose to each other again lost in each other's eyes. But then Nandini again pushed him in anger but as she pushed him she slipped on the mud and was about to fall but then Manik held her from her waist and yanked her closer and she collided in his broad chest. Manik who was again lost in her gently started caressing her arms and caressing her arms he reached to her mud covered soft cheeks. Cupped them gently and now he was dead close to her lost in her eyes and she was lost in his. Coming more closer to Nandini he said near her ears
"You can never oversmart me Peanut. I have you now."
