Chapter_7

Manik's pov

Me & kabir are sitting together in my cabin taking the interviews. It is really boring to do all this but i think it's necessary to choose the best. We have to know why they have approach this academy because if they want to serve the nation then their answers intensity should be matched up to their tongue or else kabir will burst out as he just hate when someone show fakeness through his words or actions and when it comes to the nation he got ready for brawling even. 

" Kabir why you're asking such question what would they think about us. They will think we are being perverts to them. " Manik yelled but kabir face expressions were stern. 

"They have to answer. I know my questions are seeming like double meaning questions but they need to give a proper answers else they can go happily. No one is stopping them." Kabir said and called new students. 

We have 1000 students and we have to select only 120. Kabir is right on his place but don't know why my mind is revolving around nandini. My heart wanted to go to her. Don't know where she must be. Suddenly a door knock broke my moment and i said in my stern yet cold tone.

"Come in."

Nandini, navya and mukti entered in with scared face. Navya and mukti are the confident one from starting but nandini was a innocent one from starting. 

" First rule to pass this exam is just look into my eyes all the time while answering. No looking down or else you'll be disqualified without any question." Kabir stern voice just make her flinch and she look into his eyes. Yes kabir is absolutely right. She needs to be confident or else we have to disqualify her. 

All of them look into his cold eyes and one by one he look all of them but his eyes got stuck on navya. 

" Why you want to taken an admission in our academy and what advantages you'll gave both of us. we both want to have everything you can gave us so now tell me clearly till which extent can you go to take this admission." Kabir asked and all of them gasped and nandini's eyes got widened in shock. 

"Sir, you are handsome and reputed person that doesn't means you'll take advantages of your position.we are here to learn and you're the teacher so this is how you'll teach us." Nandini said in a angry tone with moist eyes and i looked at kabir who were seeming impressed by her answer. 

Kabir eyed navya and she open the zip of her jacket making kabir and me very very shocked. "Take advantage of my body sir because i also wanted to see how shameless can you be and till which extent you can fall. " This was navya and kabir and me both got impressed and now it's mukti's turn. 

Me and kabir look at mukti with stern Expressions and she gulped down the saliva. She looked so scared. "Sir i will complaint about you to our director. You both are very bad." This is the dumbest answer we both got till now.she is behaving like a baby even after knowing both of us. Being our sister doesn't give her any advantage or taken for granted won't be applied on her situation. 

Kabir stood up from his chair and look at navya and nandini,"cadet navya and cadet nandini i really like when you both decide to fight for yourself and don't try to flirt with us.i was just a exam for you both and you both got passed now you both can go to your room." Kabir said and walked to navya and pull her jacket on shoulder and said while zipping it." It's very precious thing to serve so think before you act." Navya look really shocked so i was.kabir came back to his chair and show both of them the gate. 

They both turn but nandini was walking a little slow so i elbowed kabir who asked me what through his eyes and i point towards nandini who was walking slow with confused expressions. 

Manik's pov ends

"Cadet nandini want to ask something." Kabir asked and nandini nodded slowly in yes. He raised his eyebrows and nandini point towards mukti," Sir what about her. She is our friend." 

"Cadet nandini just leave her on us.she will join you after clear her 2 day training and the exam which director sir will set himself and yes this is not your school where you can't leave your friend. This is an army school where you came to make yourself strong not to uphold your friendship.am i clear??" Manik roared on nandini and she shivered but didn't looked into his eyes. 

" Look into my and say yes cadet nandini. " Manik shouted and she flinched but couldn't gather the courage to look into his eyes. 

"Sir she is innocent please leave her and besides that you don't have to be so rude to her.she just told you what she thinks." Mukti said in her attitude tone and kabir and manik smirked looking at their friendship. 

" Ms mukti malhotra do you know with whom you're talking and which tone you're using on us if we remark something on your certificate then you won't be able to do anything or achieve in your whole life." Manik said smirking. 

"Excuse me sir!! She was saying right what are you trying to do. Firstly please enlighten me what will you earn if my sister nandini look into your eyes and secondly if mukti take her side then what is your problem." Navya retort and listening her comment manik got little embarrassed making kabir chuckle and smile but listening her tone kabir got super angry. 

"So you now miss navya avasthi came here to teach us. Don't worry from now on i am taking the responsibility to make you decent and well mannered. So cadet navya your punishment is 5 round in the mud ground and yeah after watching your superb friendship i have decided that ms mukti malhotra will join you there."kabir said looking at navya who was looking very furiously into his eyes. 

"And about nandini looking into my eyes then i'll make sure, cadet nandini will learn that soon because i don't like when my students doesn't obey my orders." Manik said with a slight smirk and nandini look into his eyes shockingly. 

"I am sorry sir, it was my fault. Please forgive them." Nandini pleaded but manik showed her eyes asking her to shut up. 

" Go.........."kabir dismissed them and they both went not before giving kabir a hard glare specially navya. After that kabir sat on his seat and take a deep breath when he moved his head left side and look at manik who was staring at nandini. Nandini was looking down in fear but he was just looking at her face. 

"Cadet nandini you can go." Kabir send her and manik look at kabir angrily. 

"Manik she's here for herself. You're making it hard for her. She can't even look at you how can you think she'll ok if you stare on her like this. Manik it's not you i know you love nandini from last 10 years but you have to control unless you marry her. She will be yours but for that you shouldn't neglect your responsibilities. Dad has given us to select and teach the best to his students so control until we are here then i'll himself come with you to talk about nandini." Kabir said patting his shoulder and manik just smile and nodded. 

Kabir open the window which directly give a clear view to mud ground. Kabir smiled but his smiled covered with a big frown when he saw nandini and aryamann is also running with them. Looking at them he understood they are having a healthy conversation because all of them are smiling. 

"This aryamann is after nandini. I have to do something." Kabir said and look at manik who was sitting on his comfortable chair. 

********

Kabir ordered a big drum full of ice water and soon two peoples came inside holding it. Manik was all the time confused. 

" Call mr. Aryamann khurana and told him i am taking a test and who'll get passed in this will got full marks in my exam in your first test."kabir said with a smirk and peon went away nodding affirmatively. 

"What the fuck is this major kabir, this ice cold water. What will you do with it and why you called aryamann. Kabir he is our cousin and i won't let you do anything." Manik snapped and kabir just point towards the window which will be clearing everything to manik. A confused manik walked towards the window and his jaw got clenched once he saw out of the window. His grip on the window case become tight and he turned back. 

"Now what is your views about aryamann IPS MANIK SINGH MALHOTRA." Kabir asked with a slight smirk and manik walked towards fridge and taking out the bottles he emptied them in the drum and sat beside kabir. 

"I have always given him whatever he asked but not nandini. She is my life kabir. I love her a lot." Manik said while drinking a glass of water. 

"I know and i promise i will support nandini in her life and her decisions." Kabir said holding his hands and they heard a door knock. 

Soon aryamann come inside after knocking and manik welcome him with a mockery smile which he couldn't understand. 

"So as you know mr. Aryamann khurana that you're still not a cadet so i'll give you a task and you have to perform that task will told us how capable you are. Is it ok? " Kabir asked and aryamann seem a little scared with his tone. 

"I am ok sir till it's comes to my life." Aryamann said and kabir point towards a big drum full of water. 

"You have to stand inside this big drum as you very well know this is november month means winter starts from this month only so you have to show us how much you can bear and secrifice." Kabir said and aryamann gasped. 

"Ic.. Icecold wa... Water"aryamann mumbled and look into the drum. 

" Yes mr. Aryamann this academy is only for the courageous one not a coward. So this task will show us from which catagory you belongs to. We want to see your courage and potential so just do what we said or just leave taking your form."kabir give him his form. 

"No sir, i will perform. " Aryamann said while taking steps towards the jar. 

"One sec mr. Aryamann firstly fill this form we don't want anyone to call us murderers so according to this form if something risky or bad happened with you then you'll be only one to be blamed not us not this academy. " Aryamann signed and jump in the drum and shivered. He started to shiver very badly after 10 second but he didn't ask for coming out. Slowly slowly his body temperature was falling and after almost 2 minutes he started to faint and kabir shouted for the help team. 

"When he'll get up i will tell him why he got such punishment but yes i have to accept one thing that is he is courageous and very stubborn." Kabir smirked looking at the aryamann who was laying under the heating treatment. 

"His stubbornness will be tolerated unless it is for my nandini because if it comes to nandini then i will not even think before setting the whole world in fire.you know kabir i just love my gun and just think when i couldn't get nandini that passion leads me to achieve A1 IPS OFFICER post so that i could emanate from my frustration and pain.you know why i become NO1 because i didn't even think about my life while fighting because without nandini my life doesn't worthy to live. Everything related to nandini will have to face me."manik said eyeing nandini who was watching aryamann with mukti and navya by glass window.
