Previously known as 'THERE FOR EACH OTHER'
"And when my eyes fell on you,
I realised that all I ever needed in life,
To flourish and to bloom,
Was you".
Nandini Murthy isn't someone too keen about love because well, responsibilities, or maybe she us...
And now enough was enough. Manik malhotra definatety needed a lesson.
*Flashback ends*
Manik returned home early. After all it was just a day before Christmas. Kabir- Antara, Rishbah, Navya-arjun and Aaradhya had all went for a get together in the evening and Nyonika and Raj were as usual out, with their respective friends. He pushed open the door to his room only to be surprised. It was completely messed up, very unlike Nandini . Clothes were lying on the bed, pillows decorated the floor, the bed table was disastrous, his favourite perfume bottles lay broken! Manik took a few deep breaths before entering and called out for Nandini who came out of the washroom, with a scowl on her face.
" Ohh Manik! You came! See na the room is so messed up. Please clean all this!", She spoke, without looking at him busy drying her hairs. Manik gaped at her, this wasn't the Nandini he knew, but he still didn't comment.
"Sure", he said, and kept his bag aside, loosening his tie! But before he could start, Nandini jerked him, turning him to her and thrusted some papers in his hand.
" Manik Malhotra, I am divorcing you", she yelled while Manik was taken by surprise.
" Nandini?", His voice came out as a whisper, but Nandini didn't pay any heed.
"What's wrong baby? Did I hurt you?", He asked, his voice quivering as he tried to cup her face.
"Yes. You did.", Nandini answered as few tears made their way out, even after her trials of resisting. Manik was stunned. What did he do?
"What happened Nandini? Atleast talk to me. Tell me what went wrong? I promise I will correct anything and everything", Manik pleaded and this time Nandini looked up at him.
"Nandini promise?", She asked again, forwarding her palm which Manik grabbed instantly.
" Nandini promise.", His voice was desperate.
" Then promise me you will shout at me, you will scold me, you will fight with me", Nandini kept forward her condition stupifying Manik.
" What?", He asked, as if he heard her wrong.
"Yes. You heard me.", Nandini was admant.
" But Nandini, t-that D-day you panicked and I-I...", Before he could continue Nandini kept her slender fingers on his lips.
"And you thought it was because of you, right?", She completed the sentence and Manik looked down.
Nandini sighed before resting her head on his heart, her hands circling his waist.

"What do you think Manik? Only you love me? Only you understand me? I love you too Manik, more than you think I do. I know that since that night, you are feeling guilty that you shouted on me and that was why I got a panic attack. Somewhere you also felt betrayed by me, that I couldn't differentiate between your love and my appa! Haina?", Nandini asked, and Manik hid his face in her neck, as he kept hugging her. She got her answer just with that.
