Chapter 7

Manik Malhotra

Everyday is like same.. Work, work and work.. I was in my office when my buddies walked in..

"What's up dude?" Arya said while sitting in the chair..

"The usual.. Have a very busy schedule.." I replied..

"My investigator called.. He said Aliya is behaving a little different.. Cautious actually." Dhruv said.

"What do u mean..?" Cabir said.

"She always turn around to see if anyone following her or not." Dhruv explained..

"Tell him to be alert more.." Abhi said..

"We don't know what she do at night." I said..

"Who said..? Around 10 she fall sleep." Dhruv said..

"That's because of the light of her house? Dude they are hiding from us, so obviously they will have some strategy" I said..

"Ok we will hire another one for that.. But let's go to the club today.." Arya said..

"Yes.. it's been ages.." Cabir said..

"Ok the usual one.. Let me call my stuff so they can they can take care of our VIP Room.." Abhi said..

"Of course. Perks of being the owner." Dhruv winks..

"Well see u there.. Now I have to go and finish some work.. So that no one can disturb me when I will be with hot chicks." Cabir said causing us to laugh..

"Tu toh aise bol raha hain jaise tune vow liyatha ki ladkiyoko nehi dekhega.. Now u finished the vow.. Aur tujse raha na jaraha.." Arya said and now we are rolling because of laughing..

"See u later guys." I said composing my self.

At club:

As usual I was super late.. They were calling me continuously.. As if koi maar gaya ho..

"Hello, delicious!" someone block my way and I immediately cringed as soon as I heard that nickname..

I knew girls are bold nowadays! But it's too much.. No it's not after all it's New York ...

"Stop it lady.. And get out of my way." I said coldly..

"U are sounding like u aren't having fun." That blonde bimbo said too sweetly.. And I don't like sweet..

"That's because I am not." I said and pushed her aside.. Finally I grace the VIP section with my presence..

"What Manik? U disappointed that girl.. One kiss was enough." Cabir said..

"Really!! Come on.. Let me kiss u!" I said while going towards him..

"Stay way man..." Cabir said with a horrified expression..

"Manik, u never had any girl friend, u don't even flirt, just one night stand once in a while.. What's wrong dude.." Dhruv said..

"We all have our fair share of women.. So nothing is wrong.. One time will come when u guys tell me to stop romancing." I said with a slight smile..

"Romancing!!! The Manik Malhotra fantasize like a girl!" Arya said..

"Leave it buddy.. We all have our fantasy.. Though u have kinky fantasy.. I know!" Abhi said with a smirk..

"Really! Keep ur kinky fantasies urself now let's get dru...." Cabir cut by Dhruv cell phone..

"Yes, Bred." Dhruv received his phone..

"What!! Follow her and send me the location.." Dhruv cut the call with a huge grin..

"I think it's time.. Alya went out from her house like a thief.. And she is going somewhere.." Dhruv said still smiling..

"What are we waiting for let's go." Arya said and we were walking out from there..

"Hello again, delicious.." That bimbo block my way..

"Seriously.. Were you waiting here for me to get out?" I asked irritedly..

"Not really but you are 1 hot piece." She said..

" listen b**** let him go .. we are running out of time. Or else you will find yourself outside of this club." Cabir said he himself pushed her aside..

" what happened with 'I disappointed her' cabir." I asked teasingly.. But cabir ignored that..

We all were driving our car's in case we find the rest of them. Alya was going out of town. So now we are sure that we will find the rest of them. Brad still following her. soon we found Alia and send Brad back.

soon she drove her car into the trees , we still following her. soon we saw lots of light so we stopped our car.. We got out of our cars and follow her slowly when we were close enough of the light we hide ourselves behind large trees..

After that what we saw surely stopped our breath because they were there all of them standing leaning to their cars. I was looking at Nandini only.. She probably became more beautiful.. All of them wearing black dresses..

"What's wrong Aliya? U sounded bad." Shina said and Aryaman chuckled lowly..

"She meant u were all panic." Navya said giving shina a pointed look.

" I think fav5 found out about us. A fav 5 sticker was there.." Aliya said..

"Where?" Mukti said..

"With my file.. " Aliya said Nervously..

"That's not possible. They can't find us unless you said something to them." Nandini said and my heart melted after hearing her voice..

" of course not I didn't say anything to them. I don't know where are you and I can't tell anything that's what I always said to them."Aliya said..

"Then what's with the sticker.. It's symbols danger right?" Navya said..

"Yeah but what now?" Shina asked..

"We will live our lives as we are living.. And Aliya u need to more careful." Mukti said..

"I heared they are well known for their sneaky ways.. No doubt on that.. Girls now go back it's late already and be careful everyone.." Nandini said and they did a group hug..

" Nandini how long we will hide? they will know about us." Shina said..

" I know but its for the best . first we have to know about Maddy , we have to ensure he is out of our life then only we can involve fav 5 with our life." Nandini said with big sigh..

"Alright bye girls . take care.." Mukti said and they all started their car..

we all hurried back and started ours.. We follow them and soon we were in road.. We followed them and soon the girls went separated ways..

I was following Nandini... But it's seems like she had doubt someone following her.. She was roaming here and there.. This girl was too smart for her own good..

After roaming here and there she stoped at a small dine.. It's almost 1 o'clock.. I saw her she went inside and talking with a old woman.. She was laughing and eating a sandwich.. Seriously sandwich!! This is why she looks like a walking rope..

She came back and drove her car.. But I was confused why she was going towards my house!! My eyes widen because of shock.. Her house was very close to me.. three house behind.. But i never went this side not even for walking.. Stupid Manik!! Of course she would do that.. Because I didn't search nearby.. I thought she was out of my reach..

Just wait and watch.. Very smart move Miss Murthy.. I entered my house and my phone rang.. Its cabir, I know the others will be in same line.. I received the call and we all said together..

I AM AN IDIOT.....

wait.. Why they were saying that..

"I think they tricked us the same way.." Arya said..

"I can't believe she was so near.." Abhi said..

"Aliya ko dekhkar samajh jana chahiye tha.. She lives near Dhruv's house just like others.." Cabir said..

" It's ok.. At least we know where are they.." I said..

"Yeah now when will we confront them?" Dhruv said..

"We will go to our girls first then we will gather them and confront together.." I said. "Alright dad is calling... I will talk to u guys later.." I cut the call and immediately dad's name flashing..

"Hello, dad.."

"Manik.. I need to talk to u.. Meet me tomorrow."

"Why dad? Is everything ok?"

"Yes.. But i need to talk to u.."

"Ok see u tomorrow.."

"Ok.. Now go to sleep.."

"Ok my overly concerned DAD.."

"Shut up and bye."

Why suddenly he called.. He sounded nervous also.. as if he didn't know how I will react..

Next day..

"Dad what's wrong?" I asked as soon as I entered in his cabin..

"Sit first.. I need u to answer my few question.." I nodded ..

"Do u have someone special in your life?" He asked and I froze. Why this sudden question...

" not really dad but why?" I asked..

" because I fixed your marriage to my friend's daughter.." Dad said as if it was bound to happen..

" what dad, are you mad? it's my life you can't decided it without me.." I shouted..

" it's decided Manik. you have to marry her , we decided it few years ago. now it's time for it to happen. what's wrong with that? you don't have anyone in your life and you are old enough to get married. I don't want to hear anything you are coming with me tomorrow. we will go and officially announced your engagement." He said in his oh so cool voice..

" which friend of yours ? I can't believe it dad you are doing this to me .. arrange marriage!! it's not my thing hell I don't even want to get married.." I said frustratedly...

" its for your own good ... she is beautiful now she is handling his father's hotel business moreover your mother love her in her language she is Lovely and perfect for you." He said with a smile.. Damn mom u should be in my side..

" before you decline we are going tomorrow no excuse allowed. otherwise you will face your mum and you know how she will handle you." He said with a smirk..

Why my luck is so bad..
