CHAPTER-11
Manik reached Murthy Mansion and rang the doorbell. One of the servants opened the door and led him to the hall.
Servant- Aap baithiye Saab abhi aate honge.
Manik- OK.
Servant got him a glass of water and Manik drank it in a go. He was very nervous. Vishnu had never invited his employees to his house for dinner.
No doubt Vishnu was a good boss but then he couldn't understand why Vishnu has invited him.
Vishnu came and saw Manik sitting on the couch.
Vishnu- Manik Beta tum aagaye. Welcome welcome.
Manik- Thank you sir.
Vishnu- Please have a seat.
Both of them sat down.
Vishnu saw the nervousness of Manik so to make him feel comfortable he started talking on random things.
Vishnu- So Manik where are you from ?
Manik- Sir I am from Pune .
Vishnu- Yahan pe akele rehte ho.
Manik- No sir I stay with my family.
Vishnu- Aur kaun kaun hai tumhari family me?
Manik- Mom hai aur...
Before Manik could complete, the door bell rang.
The servant opened the door and it was Navya.
Navya greeted them and went to Nandu's room.
Vishnu- Haan toh tum kuch bata rahe the.
Manik- Ji sir wo...
Servant- Sab khana lagadu.
Vishnu- Haan lagao aur Nandini aur Navya ko bhi bulalo.
Servant- Ji sab .
Vishnu- Chalo Beta pehle khana khalete hai. Baki ki baate baad me karenge.
Manik- Ji.
Vishnu and Manik went and sat at the dining table while the servants served the food.
In the meantime, Nandini and Navya also came and sat there.
Nandini and Navya sat opposite to Manik .
They started eating silently.
Navya started her non stop ranting. While Nandini was silent due to Manik's presence.
Manik observed this but kept quiet.
Vishnu- Nandu Beta kya hua tum chup chap kyu baitho ho.
Nandini looked at Manik and then Vishnu and said- Kuch nai bas aise hi.
They finished dinner and went to the hall.
As soon as they entered the hall the lights went off.
Nandini got very scared because of darkness.
She tightly held the hand of the person next to her.
Vishnu shouted to his servant- Ramu yeh light ko kya hogaya. Jaldi check karo jao.
Vishnu- Nandu Beta kaha hai tu.
The lights came back .
Vishnu looked around for Nandini and found her standing next to Manik clutching his hand tightly with her eyes closed.
Navya rushed to Nandini and said- Nandu relax . Light aagayi hai.
Nandini opened her eyes and saw that she had held Manik's hand.
Manik had held her hand in assurance.
She immediately left his hand and hugged Navya tightly.
Navya- Shh... Calm down. Hum sab hai na yahan. Don't worry.
Vishnu- Nandu Beta . Kuch nai hua. Tum room me jao. Rest karo.
Nandini went to her room with Navya.
Vishnu- Sorry Manik Beta for all this.
Manik- Sir kaisi baat kar rahe ho aap. Isme sorry bolne ki kya baat hai.
Vishnu- Manik Beta thank you so much .
Manik- Sir aap sharminda kar rahe ho mujhe. Please aap thanks mat boliye.
Waise kya hua hai Nandini ko.
Vishnu- Beta she is scared of dark since her parents death.
Manik- Oh I m sorry about that
Vishnu- Its ok.
Manik- Sir mujhe chalna chahiye.
Vishnu- Haan theek hai. Jao. Tumhari Mom wait kar rahi hongi.
Manik- Ji sir. Good night. And thanks for the dinner.
Vishnu- Good night.
With this Manik went to his home and Vishnu went to Nandu's room to check on her.
Done with another update.
