Gone Case

Preview: Nandhini and Navya came to Chennai to search job and they succeeded. Both get recruited in same company but posted to different location after training, Nandhini to Pune and Navya to Chennai. Aryaman and Soha are team mate of Nandhini's first project and became friends. Soha's is Crazy fan of Manik whose story irritates Nandhini. Nandhini accidently heard Manik's song and loved his voice. Navya planned to celebrate Pongal in Chennai DC and asked Nandhini to join.

Nandhini's POV:

Next day, all my time I spend for packing and to reach Pune railway station which takes two hours to reach from my PG. Pune station is famous for its crowd that the people need to reach the station at least one hour before to survive through the crowd to catch the train. Soha used to tease that the pregnant ladies get into the station would return with the baby in their hand.

Next day afternoon I reached Chennai central then from there I reached the apartment. I am glad that this month is January otherwise the climate of Chennai in summer is pathetic. Summer climate of Pune and Chennai is almost same horrible but winder in Pune goes to even 4 degree Celsius which love whereas Chennai remains warmer and 19 degree Celsius is the lowest.

Navya is happy seeing me. Her surprise should really good otherwise she will go through a lot which she won't enjoy for sure.

"Tomorrow I will come early, we can go for shopping." Navya sounds happy. Did I mentioned before, Navya is bigger version of Soha, if Soha takes 20 shops for one dress, Navya will take more than 40 shops if she didn't satisfy, her record is 12 hours of shopping for one dress and single pair of sandal.

"No, I have my afternoon shift tomorrow, I can't come. You guys enjoy." Agasthika (Navya's roommate) felt bad as she cannot come for shopping.

"No, me too, I don't want new one, I have purchased one with Soha" the memory of dress I choose which is Manik's favourite and I my stubbornness not to give the dress to Soha. But the same time I felt bad for her because of my strange behaviour. I don't know why I didn't even like the idea of giving that dress to Soha.

May be I like the dress very much.

Really Nandhini?

Then what? I won't like giving mine to others. I love the dress and I selected that for me and its mine and also Soha has one dress selected for herself.

Then why you felt bad for not giving that dress to Soha if you don't like giving yours to others?

Then what is the reason for my act?

You know the reason Nandhini all you need is to just accept it.

"Hello madam, come to earth, where you went, I am talking to you but you are looking the fan in the ceiling" Navya irritated for no response from me.

"Sorry I am spaced out"

"You are spacing out too often now a days. Is everything ok?" It seems Navy is concern for me but actually she is teasing me.

"It is just one or two time, don't create scene that I need some psychotic treatment."

"Oh...Hello, of course you need it, and for your information this is not one or two time, you did go to other planet more often that too when we are speaking through mobile and talking about.... Manik". Navya stressed her words while saying his name.

"Oh, okay, By the way, where you are going for shopping?" there comes my saviour Agasthika, and Navya gave me 'you can't escape next time' look.

"Nandhini is allergic will crowd so..."

"You mean Enochlophobia?"

"No, she is just uncomfortable with crowd and loud sound, that's it. So we are going to Paris corner instead of TNagar".

"From there we will go to beach" I sound happier. My love for Chennai is mainly because of the beach. Whenever I feel down, I prefer going to beach, it makes me forget all my worries.

"How we can go to beach with our shopping bags. We are not going to beach".

I know she is trying to irritate me as she very well knows I love beach. In fact if we both have big fight and want to pacify, she used to bring me to beach and also if she want me to open my mind if she feel I am hiding something from her.

"Navya, give some other reason, it is so lame". Seriously we are not going to beach because we are carrying shopping bags, Navya needs to search some other better reason if she wants to irritate me.
