• Previously known as "LOVE". He's arrogant, rebellious, and carries an ego larger than life itself-Manik Malhotra, a man born with a silver spoon and an iron will. He has everything: a loving family, friends closer than brothers, wealth, fame, and looks that could make any girl swoon. But with all his perfection came a firestorm of anger, one that could scorch the earth if unleashed. Known as "The Perfect Man," he seemed to have it all. But beneath that perfect exterior lay one flaw-Manik Malhotra didn't believe in love. He scoffed at it, ridiculed it, called it nothing but a myth, a foolish waste of time. Love? It was a joke to him. He laughed at those who believed in it, mocking anyone who dared bring it up-even his own friends weren't safe from his ridicule. Then *she* walked into his life. And everything changed. She, with her innocent heart and a smile that held magic, entered his world and turned it inside out. Nandini Murthy-a soft, fragile soul-became the force that shattered his ego and tore down his defenses. She didn't just shake his life, she brought him to his knees, and for the first time, Manik couldn't rise. He could only fall-deeply, helplessly in love. She became both his greatest downfall and his most beautiful reality. Join me on the journey of Nandini Murthy and Manik Malhotra-a love story like no other.

"Her troubled eyes held fire. The kind of fire that had the intensity of burning me to ashes." "He's the one to break me but I can't help falling for him more and more anyway." Manik's life was a shade of grey. Depressing, upsetting, painful and what not. Until one day, when Nandini showed up and painted it with colors just with her presence. Nandini was as sweet as her name. She's the type of person who will go to any extent only to help you, only to put a smile on your face. She was as sweet as the sugar that constantly runs through her bloodstream and as excitable as the rush that comes with it. An organized, picture-perfect daughter and student. So what? She can be a little clumsy, who isn't sometimes? She's a sarcastic, likable person who loves to speak her mind, except she doesn't. She would be a quiet girl until you got to know her. But her beauty was something you couldn't ignore. Her petite frame with long hair and sharp facial features would surely seek your attention. Her hazel brown eyes, pointy nose, thin lips was enough to make every guy go on his knees to get her. And then there was Manik, who was as sour as a bitter gourd. He's known for his hot looks and deadly attitude. Girls go crazy to be seen by him once. His sharp jawline, blue eyes, messy but hot hair was no less than any prince charming, a picture perfect guy in short. The last thing on this Godforsaken planet he wanted to do was to acquaint himself with her. When Nandini is kind and caring, he's rude and vulgar, when she's friendly and innocent, he's crass and mean. Sugar and spice don't mix well until one night and a few incidents. What harm can one night do? It can change lives. Turn someone's life upside down. Cover credit- Reelovestowrite

He moved and sat on the couch still staring at her.He just closed his eyes and leaned his head back. "Please...I'm sorrry...please...don't"She started shivering and panicking in her sleep and Manik immediately ran towards her and held her hand. "Nandu...Nandu...open ur eyes...kuch nahi hua...look at me...I'm here...it's me Manik..." He said rubbing her hand trying to wake her up. She sat suddenly and opened her eyes and examined the surroundings.Manik side hugged her saying "Shhh...chup...kuch nahi hua...u r safe here..." He calmed her down and made her sleep again. After 15 minutes he came out to the balcony and those tears which he was stopping to be strong made it's way out. "How...How can I remove those nightmares Nandu...!!!" He asked himself while wiping his tears. "With ur love..." An answer came from behind. He turned to see the person and it is none other than his best buddy Cabir. "Cabir..." He said slowly. "Ha Manik...she can only be healed by ur love...The love which u left 2 years back..."Cabir answered. Manik again stared at Cabir and at Nandini whose body has all her past MARKS. Manik just closed his eyes helplessly and the traces of his past came in front of his eyes. . . . C-Manik...this is the last day of college man...u won't get the chance to see her again...jao...ab toh bathaa that u love her... Manik looked at him worriedly ,gathered himself and his courage and took his steps towards her... . . . . "I never thought that I'll see her like this...not like this..."He cried his heart out holding Cabir.

"That means you were the only one who destroyed my whole life!" She said to him with tears filled in her eyes. "You call other people heartless and what about you? Didn't you have a heart back then when you killed my love!" He shouted pinning her to the wall. "It's not my question's answer!" She told him looking into his eyes with red teary eyes. "You know it was my mistake to love a woman like you. You are same as other people selfish and murderer. Get out of my fucking life!" He shouted pushing her to the ground and make her fall onto the ground. "You hurted me too! And now there's no coming back. You killed my life! I HATE YOU FOR THIS!"
