And now here comes Kabir Dhawan.
It's 6 am in morning. Everyone was sleeping. But someone entered Boys' building and Manik's dorm(dorm no. 403). A youngster with two luggage bags, headphones on, unlocked the door and went in. Manik, Abhimanyu and Dhruv all were sleeping. He directly went to empty bed and laid down. He tried to sleep but couldn't so he went to the centre table took out one of the food delivery he brought. The three woke up and Dhruv screamed to see someone sitting and eating there. Kabir turned around and asked them to come and eat he has brought food for everyone. They still didn't saw his face clearly.
Dhruv - Hey, if you are here to deliver food, just keep and leave. Why are you sitting here and eating? Tell me from which branch? I will place a complaint.
Kabir - You think I am a delivery boy. From which angle man!!! (he got up and showed himself to them)
Dhruv - Ya, you don't look like one!! But who are you?
Manik - He is Kabir. Kabir Dhawan.
Kabir - Wow, Are you some demon or what? How do you know?
Manik - I just guessed it! Because everything which was empty/blank last night is taken now.
Kabir - Oh great, You are smart.
Manik - Thanks. I am flattered.
Kabir - Sorry to trouble you, but can you tell your names please?
Manik - Myself Manik.
Dhruv - Dhruv
Abhimanyu - Abhimanyu.
Kabir - Oh. Nice to meet you guys. I am also in business management, guys. Come on, let's eat.
They ate well got ready and went to their classrooms. Manik's behaviour according to everyone was quite cold but still everyone admires him. Many girls wanted to propose him but still no one dared to. Kabir also started to get proposed but he refused everyone. But he would always look after the photos of girls from their college(all freshers). Dhruv would ask him and he will always reply that he is actually searching for someone.

Almost a month passed and Nandini kept on searching for K.D. but was unable to find him. Finally, she gave a call to her dad.
Nandini - I want to ask you something. But promise me that you will not scold me?
Manish - What's wrong? Ok, I promise, I will not say anything.
Nandini - Dad, (while hesitating) What's actual name of K.D.?
Manish - What? Are you kidding me? You don't even know that? Are you seriously his sister or not? Huh?
Nandini - You promised me.
Manish - Shut up. I will not tell you.(he hanged up)
Nandini - (in her mind) Now, what will I do?.
Now, almost three months passed. But there was no evidence of K. D. One day, Alia was on a call with Dhruv in her dorm. It was Sunday. Suddenly Navya disrupted.
Navya - Alia, Mukti I am asking you again when are you going to treat us. You two have been dating for so long.
They both ignored her and Nandini too didn't show any interest. Nandini went out to balcony. Navya snatched Alia's phone.
Navya - Dhruv, I am asking you. When are you and Abhimanyu going to treat us?
Dhruv - OK, tell me when are you guys free?
Navya - Today.
Dhruv - No problem. Get ready. Let's have dinner together at 7 pm. Remember to inform the three of them too. I will also bring those three.
Navya - You mean Manik and Kabir will also come.
Dhruv - Yes.
Navya - OK. But don't tell them the reason, just bring them or they will not come.
Dhruv - You too should not tell Nandini about anything.
Navya - ok, bye.
Alia - Now, can I talk mam.
Navya - But I already hung up. (Navya showed an innocent face while Alia kept on staring at her)
They all got ready and Dhruv, Abhimanyu, Kabir and Manik were already sitting there when the girls arrived. Alia directly went and sat next to Dhruv. Mukti took them to the table. Nandini and Manik were shocked to see each other, But still managed to control their expressions. Nandini was hesitating a lot and kept on eating without saying a word when everyone was busy talking. Suddenly, she started to scratch her arms but didn't took even a glance at them. She looked at Kabir and felt she has seen him before. The same happened to Kabir. But they didn't said anything. Nandini was again scratching Abhimanyu noticed.

Abhimanyu - Nandini, what's wrong? Why are you continuously scratching your arms. If you are feeling warm, you can just remove your cardigan.
Manik took a quick glance and
Manik - Nandini!!!! You got red rashes all over. What did you eat just now?
Nandini - Just this pudding.
Manik - (after looking at pudding). You should be careful. You are allergic to cashews and still you ate it? C'mon girl. How can you be so careless? Waiter!!! Please bring some fruit juice. (waiter brought the juice) Nandini, here take it and here's the medicine. Take it quickly.
Nandini took the medicine and after few minutes started to feel well. Seeing her like that, everyone was tensed but now they were relaxed as she was fine now.
Abhimanyu - Manik, how did you know that Nandini is allergic to cashews? Do you know each other?
Nandini and Manik - Noo!!
Manik - It's just that, my uncle is also allergic to cashews.
Abhimanyu - Ok. Lets forget it. And Nandini please take care. Don't be so careless.
Nandini - OK. But please close this topic here and now.
Mukti - (in her mind) But why was Manik having the medicine for it? Forget it.
At 9 pm, they all left. Manik and Kabir gave them lift in their cars. Manik, Abhimanyu, Mukti and Nandini were in one and rest were in other. Mukti saw a bakery and asked Abhimanyu to come with him and buy two cakes for each of their dorms. The two went out while Manik and Nandini remained there.
Manik - Nandini, are you fine? See, you can go to doctor if needed.
Nandini - No, I'm fine Manik. I think a little rest would do. And yes, Can you please give me the medicine. I don't have it anymore.
Manik - Sure. But be careful with your food otherwise I....
Nandini - No, don't worry. I will be careful for next times. Thank you.
Mukti and Abhimanyu came back and they all drove back to college and went to their dorms. In girl's dorm.
Alia - Nandini, are you seriously this much allergic to cashews? You still have rashes. See.
Nandini - Ya, I am allergic to cashews and my father too. But don't worry, these rashes will disappear by morning. Let's sleep.
They went to sleep after Nandini took one more dose.
The days started to pass smoothly. Now, only a month was left for the final exams of first semester. And here the trouble begins, Nandini and Manik started to get a lot of proposals but will always reject or either show a cold shoulder. The two dorms also started to get along and will meet up for meals either in school cafeteria or outside. Manik and Nandini were always able to hide their relation well. But One thing, that everyone felt strange was, Navya and Kabir were getting along well actually. But they accepted it and they promised even if the two will start dating they will surely support them. But one thing that was eating up Nandini was that she was still unable to find her cousin.
Exams came to an end and Nandini's father arranged a family gathering and asked Nandini and Manik to join too.

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.
