She was walking in the corridors of space when she heard everyone around her whispering Girl- dude did you hear manik and koi new guy mein parking ke liye fight hua everyone is saying ussne manik ki jagah pe car park kar di Another girl- haa and suna hai the new guy has already got into a fight with manik and hes veryyyyy hot also yaar Another one-haa man bohot hot hai yaar and ussne aate hi manik ki hit list mein apni jagah bana li. Ab mazza ayega space mein finally koi manik ko challenge kar payega Listening to all this Nandini rushed towards the parking lot and saw manik holding someone by his collar, and blood coming out of his lips Nandini reached there and freed them Man- nandini you stay out of this I m going to kill this guy today Guy- (without looking at Nandini) aana yaar, ab aate hi appne boxing ka talent showcase karne mile isse better first day ho hi nai sakta hai and..(then looks at Nandini) M I dreaming or are you actually here princess Man- aee you bloody asshole voh kisiki princess nai hai and how dare you call her that ha Nan- exactly mein..(and then rembers her encounter with him in the club yesterday) oh shitt aren't you the same guy, the yesterday club wala? Guy- dekha hangover ke baad bhi u couldn't forget me, ab mein hu hi cheez badi mast mast kya kar sakte hai Man- oh please cut that short, Nandini do you know him? Nan- yeah last night he saved me from a guy in the club Man- save? Kya hua tha? Kon tha voh? I swear m not leaving the guy who forced himself on you alive (alya from behind) Aly- why are you so concerned manik, vese bhi khadi toh hai sai salamat Nan- because alya I maybe no longer be his girlfriend but I m still his best friend. Aly- ya whatever Man- coming back to you Mr.... Guy- sidharth, Sidharth kapoor (since almost 90% of you wanted him;) ) Man- sidharth thanks for saving Nandini last night, and thats the only reason I m letting you go right now nai toh Sid- its okay manik ab excuses mat bana ladna hai toh man to man lad this "letting go n all" isnt Sid's style The atmosphere against get heated up nan- that's enough of you two and sid, thanks a lot for last night but I m sure you dont want to start your college with a fight so can you guys please end this right here! Sid- your wish is my command princess app bolo toh jeena chod de fight toh kya cheez hai Man- shut the fuck up you moron, and stay the fuck away from fab5 and specially Nandini get it?! Nan- (shouts) everyone back to their classes right now! Koi show nai chal raha yaha and manik back to the jam room, and sid enjoy your first day. Saying this she walked back towards the jam room and told the rest of the gang about the whole story also about her encounter with sid last night at the club behind her came manik raging with anger, he here couldn't figure out why was he so angry, was it because sid took his place or was it because no one ever had stood up to him like sid did or the was it because he called Nandini "princess" . all these thoughts were frustrating him but the last one was scaring his as well. After about an hour of hardcore jamming, and taking all the anger out, manik along with fab4 and alya moved towards the canteen Reaching the canteen, mukti spoted sid and called him Muk- hey sidharth thankyou so much for saving Nandini earlier Sid- call me sid guys and cmon princess ko prince nai toh kya donkey bachayega?(he said the last part looking at manik and Nandini rolled her eyes in amusement as only she understood the "donkey" reference) Muk- you're too funny sid and started laughing Sid- i have been told so before ( looking towards Nandini who unknowingly smiled) Manik noticed the exchange and fumed in anger and said Man- enough of him for the day guys, can we please have some alone time only fab5 Cab- till alya is there thats not quiet possible as it is so why dont you join us sid, I mean u saved Nandini last night you at least deserve a treat from fab5. Muk- exactly sid come join us na After a lot of pleadings from cabir and mukti sid joins them. Talking a chair sid sits beside Nandini at which manik resists his urge to go punch his gut Sid- hey princess missed me? Nan- oh god can you please try not calling me that Sid- u know what actually I did try, try a lot but kya karu tumhara chehra dekh ke jhoot nai bola jaata Nan- cut that short sid Sid- princess are you a broom? Coz you just swept me off my feet Nan- really sid? Muk- omg sid, yaha hum sab bhi hai and I never expected a rough and tough guy like you to be so cheesy Sid- haha kya karu yaar ab princess hai hi itni charming even I dont have control over me Nan- that would be enough for the day sid Muk- hayee you're so cute sid I wish I had a boyfriend like you Cab- aee lady bheem kal toh bohot bol rahi thi single life is the best n all Nan- exactly mukti love n all is just a waste of time, in the end our hearts only end up getting hurt and our souls are left feeling used Aly- I Am sorry to say nandini but agar the partner loves you back toh I really dont think its a bad thing infact its the best thing in the world, ab just because yours was a one sided feeling doesn't mean everyone is that unlucky(everyone understood the taunt alya was trying to play on nandini and yes she succeded, Nandini ran as fast as her feet could take her with tears recklessly flowing from her eyes) Back in the canteen Cab- what the fuck was that Alya! Can't you keep your mouth shut sometimes Muk- exactky! Bloody moron now because of you she's crying again. I'm going to kill you someday for sure Man- that would be enough Mukti! And you alya trust me if you dont learn how to shut up u will see the worse of me Aly- what the hell manik, what did I say wrong ha? I don't think I said a lie anywhere Man- yes it wasn't a lie but it wasn't even needed that time. Aly- whatever manik you really need to stop defending your ex gf and take a stand for your present!(aly acts to walk away in hurt) Man- (with a softened tone) Alya stop you know Nandini is my best friend right? I dont like seeing her in tears so can you please not pick on her? Please for me? Aly- fine manik I ll try just for you but its just that... Muk- stop right there Alya!(And turns towards cab) I'll go get Nandini Cab- no need mukti she's in the right hands Muk- what? Cab- just when everyone here was fighting like idiots for making her cry someone actually cared that she was crying and immediately went after her. And that someone was sid dhruv- you think he can handle her? Cab- yes dhruv, something about him tells me that he is the only one who can make her smile again like before Muk- I hope so yaar I really miss my old soulie On the other side sid was running in the corridors to find Nandini when he hears a melodious yet painful voice coming from the jam room, he didnt know y but he started following the voice and there she was. Devastated, crying and broken trying to fix the broken strings of her heart with the strings of her guitar.
While she sung the song all she could think about was manik and her moments and the day of the breakup. Sid watched her expression w as she sung the song, paying extra attention to each an every word she was singing. As soon as she finished the song sid started clapping Sid- woah princess, I never knew you had such a beautiful voice Nan- uhmm sid what, what are you doing here(trying not to stammer and wipe her tears) Sid- you dont need to pretend you're fine princess and never try to hide your emotions in front of me Nan- thanks for coming here sid but I really need some alone time right now so can we please talk later?and as it is I m going home I am feeling a bit unwell Sid- if you say so princess, but always remember, kabhi bhi apni heart ki strings kisi insaan ke haath mein mat Dena Jo unhe apni tarha play kar sake, life mein kisi ko itni importance nai dena ke they get the power to hurt you and a person like alya shouldn't get the access to your pain. And ha about the song you were singing, manik pe tumhari kahani khatam nai hui, he was just one chapter of your life's book titled Nandini murthy you still have a lot of chapters to read as "Nandini". being manik malhotras girlfriend was one chapter of the story. Go home, come back tomm and show the world that there's much more to Nandini murthy than being the ex gf of manik malhotra. Know your worth princess, and the world will know yours. Nandini just hummed as she was still pondering upon Sid's words. Was he right? Was she actually giving alya the power to hurt her? Had she actually given her heartstrings to manik who had played them at his discretion? Was she still stuck on the manik malhotra chapter of her life? All these thoughts were bursting her head and chucking everything she went home.
