Vikram:- Manik!!!
Manik was numb in his place. Cabir and Dhruv were trying to run from the place but Manik hold their hand tightly. Vikram was going to touch Manik. But someone called Vikram.
Mr.Desai:- Mr. Malhotra!
Vikram looked behind him and saw Mr. Desai was standing with Yeash. Vikram walked towards them.
Mr. Desai:- Mr. Malhotra meet Mr. Yeash Murty. Recently we signed a contract and Mr. Murty meet Mr. Vikram Malhotra.
Yeash:- Inhe kon nahi janta? Aj kal tho bas inke hi charche ho rahi hai. ( Who doesn't know him? Nowadays days he is everywhere.)
Yeash said mockingly. Vikram smirked.
Vikram:- Bhai agar media humare bareme din rat bolta rehta hai tho hum kya kar sakte hai. ( Brother if media talk day and night about me then what can I do.)
Mr. Desai:- Haan yeh tho tik bola apne. Par unki kya galti hai akhir apne iss year best businessman ka award jeeta hai. ( Yeah you said right. But there is no fault of them you won the best businessman of this year.)
Vikram smirked towards Yeash. Yeash made bad face.
Mr. Desai:- Mr. Murty bhi tho nominated the. ( Mr. Murty was also nominated.)
Vikram:- But I won that.
Yeash:- Don't fly too much you will fall on the ground.
Vikram:- Urna mera aadat hai. Akhir urkehi admi apni kamiyabbi tak pohoch sakte hai.(It is my habit to fly. After all, men can reach their commuters only after flying.)
They both angrily looked at each other. Mr. Desai got alert. He could smell trouble. Mr. Desai laughed and they both stopped their soldiers with whom they ready to attack each other in mind.
Mr. Desai:- Mr. Murty ap please mere sath ayiye. Mr. Malhotra excuse us please. ( Mr. Murty please come with me. Mr. Malhotra excuse us please.)
Vikram nodded his head and smirked towards Yeash. Yeash left from there with angry face. Suddenly Vikram remember what he was looking for. He turned around but there was none. He looked here there but didn't find anything.
Vikram:- shayed Maine galat dekha. ( May be I saw it wrong.)
He also left from there. Cabir, Dhruv and Manik was standing in a corner. They saw Vikram leaving. Manik took a sign of relief.
Cabir:- Aj tho bach gaye yaar. Nahi tho sare vanda fut jata. ( We got saved today. Otherwise we were going to expose.)
Dhruv:- Haan yaar. Uncle ne tho pehchan bhi liya hoga. ( Yes yaar. Uncle must be recognised us.)
Cabir:- Nahi uncle ko laga hoga unhone galat dekha. ( No uncle thought he saw wrong.)
Manik:- Nahi Cabir. Dad itni achanice jane nahi denge. Woh jarur mujhe call karegge. ( No Cabir. Dad will never let it ho easily. He will call me.)
And that time only Manik's phone started ringing. He took out the phone from the pocket and showed them the called I'd.
Cabir:- Damn.
It's Manik's dad only. Cabir and Dhruv was shocked and scared. What if Manik's dad saw them. Manik picked up the call.
Manik:- Hello dad.
Vikram:- Hello beta. How are you?
Manik:- I'm perfectly fine dad.
Manik walked away from there in a corner dark place. So that his father didn't get any idea about him. Cabir and Dhruv was seeing around. Cabir looked at Dhruv.
Cabir:- Dhruv.
Dhruv looked at Cabir.
Dhruv:- Haan bol. ( Yeah say.)
Cabir:- Tu mujse share kar sakta hai. ( You can share with me.)
Dhruv looked at him confusedly.
Dhruv:- konsi bat. ( What?)
Cabir:- Aliya ke bareme. ( About Aliya.)
Dhruv looked here there.
Dhruv:- Aliya ke bareme kya? ( What about Aliya?)
Cabir:- Don't give me that look like Nothing happened Blah blah blah.
Dhruv:- I will say that only nothing is here and nothing to share.
Dhruv picked up a glass and took a sip. Cabir gave him a disbelieve look.
Cabir:- Okk fine. There is nothing.
Cabir kept his hand on his shoulder.
Cabir:- Jab bhi tujhe lage tujhe kuch share karni hai humse. Tho hum humesha tere sath hai. ( If you ever thought you need to share something with us. Then we are always with you.)
Dhruv gave him a smile. Manik came back with a angry face.
Cabir:- Aree mere hulk yese muh kyu ban gaya tera. Uncle ne kuch bola kya? Suddenly itna gussa. ( My Hulk why your face became like this. Did Uncle said something? Suddenly this much angry.)
Manik didn't said anything and grabbed the drink from Dhruv's hand and drunk it one go. Dhruv made a cry face.
Dhruv:- Woh mera drink tha. (It was my drink.)
Manik glanced at him. One waiter was passing from there. Manik grabbed drink from there also and drunk that too.
Cabir:- Kya huya hai Manik? Itna kyu pi raha hai? Bol bhi kuch gugga ho gaya hai Kya?(what happened Manik?why are you drinking so much? Tell me are you became dumb?
Cabir noticed Manik was looking somewhere. He followed his eyes and saw one couple was dancing. It was dark so they were not able to see there face. Seems like the couple enjoying the dance.
Cabir:- Tu woha kya dekh raha hai?(What are you looking at there?)
Cabir trying to find something.
Dhruv:- Wow!! Woh couple kitna acha dance kar raha hai. Such a romantic couple. Hai na Manik? ( Wow!! That couple dancing so good. Such a romantic couple. Right Manik?)
Manik's anger reached on top level. He angrily looked at Dhruv. Dhruv gave him a confused look. Manik went towards the bar pick up 2 bottles and left from there.
Dhruv:- Manik kaha ja raha hai tu?(Where are you going?)
Cabir was still looking at the couple. The couple turned and Cabir was shocked. It was Nandini she was dancing with Rohan (if you guys forget him got to chapter 9)
Cabir:- Oh Teri. Yeh tho Rohan hai. Yeh namuna yeha kya kar raha hai woh bhi Nandini ke sath? Manik Manik! (Oh God. It's Rohan. What this idiot doing here that too with Nandini? Manik Manik!)
Cabir turned and saw Manik was not there. Dhruv was sipping his another drink. Cabir slapped his head.
Cabir:- Manik kaha hai? (Where is Manik?)
Dhruv:- Woh tho chala gaya. (He left)
Cabir:- Kaha gaya? (Where?)
Dhruv:- woh wohha se 2 bottles uthaya or chala gaya. ( He picked up 2 bottles from there and left.)
Cabir:- Duffer Search him. I hope he is fine.
Dhruv and Cabir were started searching Manik. Soon dance also finished. Nandini came down with Rohan. But her eyes was trying to find Manik. She didn't saw him from long time.
Then she saw Cabir. His face was tensed and he was looking here there. Looking like he was searching someone. Nandini excused herself from Rohan and went towards Cabir. Nandini padded his shoulder. Cabir turned around.
Nandini:- Cabir tum kisse dun rahe ho? ( Cabir whom are you searching?)
Cabir:- Manik.
Nandini:- Manik ko? Manik ko kya huya? He is OK na?(Manik? What happened to Manik? Is he ok?)
Nandini started panicking.
Cabir:- I don't know. His parents were also here. If they got to know he is in India then we all will be in trouble. He saw you dancing with that Rohan. I don't know where he gone.
Nandini:- Aayippa(God) now what will happened?
Cabir:- Nandini can you please search for him outside?
Nandini:- Okk.
Nandini quickly went outside. She was very much scared for Manik.
Nandini:- Where are you Manik?
She was walking one bottle come rolling near her foot. She looked here and there. She saw someone was sitting under a tree. She with her little step went near and saw Manik was sitting there.
Nandini:- Manik.
Manik looked up and saw Nandini was standing there.
Manik:- Kya dekhne ayi ho? Jinda hu ki nahi? ( what you come to see? Am I alive or not?)
Manik got up. He was not in a condition to stand up on his feet.
Nandini:- You drunk Manik. But you never drink.
Manik smiled.
Manik:- Tumhare pyaar ne kya se Kya bana diya. Jinde gi mai maine kabhi bhi kuch bhi nahi chaha sebai tumhe. ( What did your love make me? I never wanted anything in my life expect you.)
Manik cupped Nandini's face.
Manik:- I love you unconditionally. Why don't you understand my love. Am I that bad? Don't I deserve to be happy with you. Tell me?
Nandini was numb on her place. She was seeing different Manik today who was broken. Manik left Nandini.
Manik:- Can't you forgive my one mistake? ( Manik pinch his throat) I promise I will never hurt you. Never made you cry. Just give me a one Chance. I will never give you chance to complain.
Manik hold her both hand and started begging in front of her. Both had tears in their eyes. Manik left her hand.
Nandini:- Manik let's go home.
Manik:- You know today I lost Abhi's friendship. You know he got to know everything about us. He think I betrayed his friendship. But i never did that. I just hide the truth. My friendship was not fake. I lost everything. He don't even want to see my face. Everyone hates me.
Manik chuckled on his fate.
Manik:- You want me to go away from you. Okk I will go far away from you. May be it's my punishment for my did. Then you will be happy in your life. I promise this Manik Malhotra will never bother you.
Nandini was crying. She didn't know what to do what to say.
Manik:- You are successful in your goal today. You broke me completely. You told me that day remember when the time will come I will ask for your forgiveness but it will be too late.
Manik was going to fall but he handled himself. Nandini was going to help him. But he showed her his hand.
Manik:- See it's really happened. It's too late. My love is gone. My love is incomplete. I'm paying for my own did.
Manik the fall on ground. Nandini quickly went towards him and pull his head on her lap. She padded his Cheek.
Nandini:- Manik Manik open your eyes.
Nandini's tears was not stopping. She took her the phone and called Cabir. Soon Cabir and Dhruv were there. They consoled her and helped Nandini to make Manik sat on car. They want to accompany Nandini but Nandini denied.
Nandini was driving the car. Manik was in passenger sit. Manik was sleeping. Nandini time to time looking at Manik. She was remembering Manik's every words.
I love you unconditionally. Why you don't understand my love. Am I that bad?
Manik's head roll and fall on Nandini's shoulder. Nandini carefully again place his head back on place.
Can't you forgive my one mistake. I promise I will never hurt you.
Nandini looked at Manik. He was sleeping because of the affect of alcohol. He was the same Manik whom she love.
Today I lost Abhi's friendship. I lost everything.
She was very much hurt. She didn't forget Manik's those words. But does she doing right with Manik. Giving him the same pain which he gave her.
You want me to go away from you. Okk I will go far away from you. May be it's my punishment for my did.
Manik's head again fall on Nandini's shoulder. She was going to place his head back. But stop in middle and let him be.
My love is gone. My love is incomplete.
Nandini stopped the car in front of her House. She looked at Manik. Carefully place his head back. She came out of the car. She went inside the house.
Nandini:- kaka kaka.
The servant came running.
Kaka:- Jii babyji. (Yes child)
Nandini:- Kaka woh meri help karegg?( Uncle will you help me?)
Kaka:- Jii bilkul babyji. (Of course child)
Nandini:- Ayiye mare sath. (Come with me.)
Nandini with kaka went towards the car.
Nandini:- Meri help kariye Manik ko andar le Jane ke liye.(Help me to take Manik inside.)
Kaka:- Kya huya hai Manik baba ji ko? (What happened to Manik?)
Nandini:- Usne tora jada piliya. (He is drunk.)
Then Nandini with the help of kaka took Manik to his room. Nandini laid Manik down.
Nandini:- Kaka please gharme kisi ko bhi nahi batana Manik ke bareme.(Uncle please don't tell anyone about Manik in the house.)
Kaka:- Tik hai babyji.(ok child.)
Nandini:- Or subha jab Manik uthe tho unhe tablet or nimu PaNi de dijiye ga. ( when on the morning Manik woke up. Give him medicine and lemon water.)
Kaka nodded his head.
Nandini:- Ab ap so jayiye. Mai sambhal luggi. ( Now you go to sleep. I will handle this.)
Kaka:- Tik hai. Agar kuch chahiye tho awaj laga dijiye ga. ( Ok if you need something call me.)
Nandini nodded her head and kaka left from there. Nandini's eyes fall on sleeping Manik. She sat beside Manik and saw he was little uncomfortable in those cloths.
Nandini sat close to Manik and with every difficulty removed Manik's coat. She then removed his shoes and cover Manik with a blanket properly. She switched off the lights and closed the door.
Nandini went to her room. She changed her dress and come to balcony. She was thinking about Manik's words. Tears was started falling for her eyes which she was trying to stop from long time.
Because of her Manik was so much in pain. Her heart still love Manik but she was afraid. What if it's all his drama he will again broke her. Nandini trance broke when her phone rang. She wiped her tears and picked up the phone.
Nandini:- Hello Abhi bhai (brother).
Abhi:- Nandu tu kaha hai? Hum sab kitna tension mai hai. ( Nandini where are you? We are so tensed here.)
Nandini:- Woh bhai mai Manik ke sath ghar bapas agayi. (Brother I came home with Manik.)
Abhi:- Manik ke sath? (With Manik?)
Nandini:- Manik is not well. I brought him back home.
Abhi:- Okk I'm coming home.
Nandini:- No bhai (brother) it's not need. Manik is fine now. He is sleeping.
Abhi:- Everything is fine na?
Nandini:- Yes bhai (brother).
Abhi:- Okk fine bye.
Nandini cut the call and sat down there looking at the stars. Tears again started falling for her eyes. She was fighting between her mind and heart. May be Manik did wrong with her. But is she doing right? Thinking all this Nandini fall asleep there. Next morning the sun rise up with new hope new feelings and new challenge.
That's for today. So guys what you think this new morning what will bring in their life? Share your thoughts with me.
I have a question should Nandini forgive Manik? Tell me honesty what you want.
