Reception took really long time. It was almost 2 when all guests walked away. Manik cousins and friends along with chachas are left. Ladies too went home. Manik looked Nandini she hell tired. He too
He made Nandini sit comfortable and went to pantry and brought some snacks and juice.
"Have some you will feel better"
"No please don't force I can't now"
"Ok have some juice"
She took glass and took few sips and kept it back. Manik didn't force her he drank the left over
Manik is watching Nandini. She is deep thinking. What he can guess. He took a deep breath asked diver to bring car to entrance. When replied him that car is ready, he took Nandini in bridal style and walked to car. She is not in a state to even see where she is, and how she is, this made Manik more worried
"Mrs.malhotra stop thinking. Nothing is going to change. Accept all this and move with follow as I am doing. Your over thinking may leads to more worries nothing more. Pain is there, we should start living with it. I know it's tough but we don't have choice. Please for got sake stop thinking"
Nandini didn't reply. She is still silent. Which made Manik more worried. He held her arm tight and made her see at him, "stop thinking baba!!!!!! Just give yourself time to adjust please" he folded his hands in front of her. Tears rush out from her eyes.
"Don't do that...... I can't see you ...... folding hands.... begging I front of others not even me please" she wiped tears
He looked at his hands and dropped them
"You say it speak to me shout scream but this your silent it's ..... it's just killing me"
"I am helpless" she closed her eyes and leaned back on car seat.
When Manik and Nandini reached home Manik again took her in arm and walked to his room. When they entered, Manik lost his brain working. Land under his feet went 1000 miles down he almost slip. He kept her safely on earth and shouted "mom", he was about to shout once again Nandini held his hand tight he looked her.
"Don't...... don't make things awkward and dirty........ please....... I beg you" she is at the verge of crying
"Nandini?" He is shocked trying to understand her.
"Now I am your wife, you have all rights on me you...... you .... you can" she couldn't complete the sentence left it half spoke asking him understand the rest
"Fuck me as you want, is this the complete sentence which was you about to say me?" Manik is in anger
Nandini looked sharply
"Mrs.malhotra I am not a animal. Did you get it I am human god dammit. I know I did sin multiple sins to you but not this one. Do you dare to degrade yourself once again I will kill for it" he hugged her tight
"I am sorry sorry for this mess come with me, we will sleep at some other place"
"No we will sleep here" she sounded stubborn
Having no choice Manik left her took his night suit from closet and walked to bathroom. Took a quick shower and came out.
Nandini is still standing. After seeing Manik coming out she took her night suit and went to bathroom. Manik removed all the decoration on bed and made it neat. He took pillows and duvet made himself comfortable in couch
Nandini came out and straight away went to bed and slept but sleep was far away from her.
"What am I?? Who am I?? Where did I go wrong??? Why is this happening to me??? Am I that cursed?? My own father my appa..... thrown me out of his life??? Is it real?? Then what was that?? My 23 years of life?? Isn't that real?? Why am I in this pain?? Do I really have dignity or self respect?? No no I don't have
I am just lifeless, heartless doll, toy or a mud toy which can be broken into tiny pieces and make it into new toy as they want. Yes dad showered love and thrown me out mercilessly, now he is showing love then he will throw me out then what will I do???
I don't have my own identity either I am murthy or Malhotra their is no Nandini. I am useless crap, frankly speaking a douchbag which is to be carried unwontedly by one or other. A useless stuff. This what I am.
Appa said after marriage I will have two families to love me but fact love is only a tragedy. Which made my life hell. Every one has heart break because of boyfriend or husband but here my appa broke my heart my trust, he has shaken my own identity my own soul.
He said he don't believe me, really??? When he can't believe how come I can expect from others? Today my own appa thrown out if family then why can't he? Tomm he will also throw me out then what???
What ami waiting for???? Am I wait him to throw me out of his life??? Then what??? No no he is my antic piece he is not like that, means appa is like that???? No never but he has already thrown you then???
Look Nandini look around??? Where you are? What you are doing??? You are making him to live with you life long. See he don't love you, he is just pity on you. He is guarding you feeding you taking care of you. If you really love him don't pull him into this forceful marriage. Don't make his life hell. Nobody wants you
Go Nandini take wise decisions. You already made your appa break down, whole murthy family into your hell now don't make Malhotra to drown in this. You are curse nothing more than that. Go
Nandini hissed in pain. She looked at her hand it's bleeding. She looked around she is standing in the middle of the bathroom, blood oozing from her fresh deep cut on her wrist, body full of sweat, shivering. She suddenly had vomitting all the juice she drank lastly spell out. She started feeling dizzy. She lost balance.
Manik is in his own thoughts. "All business partners are showing their disbelief on him for marrying Murphy's daughter they even want a board meeting, producers want our next album to be completed as already announcement is done, Rohit is angry on me for doing all this to his best friend. Mom is too much worried about Nandu, and this murthy I have to meet him. God give strength." Suddenly he saw at bed found it empty. He looked bathroom lights are on he felt relaxed.
When Manik found even after ten mins she didn't come out hesistatingly knocked the door their was no sound he knocked more hardly still no sound he got scared. Tried to open it. But he couldn't.
Manik ran to living room where all the keys of every room are kept took his room keys and came running up. He after checking each key with frustration found right one. Opened it in a zip way and came found Nandini on floor.
Manik went near her to pick her up, found blood all over, his eyes bulged out, he is shaken from his soul. He composed himself from shock and lifted her in arm cane running down and shouted
"Cabin, drub, Rohit, mom"
All came running to hall
"Come fast drive fast take car she doctor mom go car fast" he is not making any sentence but all understood Cabot ran out brought the car, nyeonika came with Manik . With no time car came out of mansion.
Manik is out of the icu door. All scared panic shaken away from his soul.
"Mom I swear I swear if anything happens to her I will die I want her by my side with me in my life did you get it I want her give it to me please I beg you"
"Bacha!!!! No no be strong she needs you needs us we can't go weak. Manik look at me, she needs you by side of her, you can't go weak"
"Mom" he hugged and cried
"Cry as much as you want but once she wakes up you will be standing strong in front of her"
" how could she do this to me mom??? How could?????? How could she pull this stunt on me???? Only her appa matters? I am no where for her??? No one for her??? Can't she live for me? Why mom why??"
Nyeonika left Manik and walked to shaker, held his collar tight "happy now? Fulfilled your so called revenge. What you said your brother and sister are not my blood relatives that's why I don't want to take revenge? You used blank promise of my dead husband to obey this rivalry game. Now happy.
What have you done see shaker??? Is this what I tought you all my life? You were just 14 why came to your house married your brother. You all were motherless., I became your mother, you don't know how much I loved your sister? How much cried for her?
Is this thing which made your heart burden free from your brother and sister's death now you revealed free??? Shaker I begged you, warned you still.... god!!!! I should have bent for that stupid promise.
At least think once if she was kidnapped by any goons how she might be till now??? That's why I sent Manik for this at least I can keep her in my lap safe from all cruel world safely. By gods grace or blessing she is same whom Manik was searching but now see what happened where we are now??
Your revenge made a girl kill herself, are less than that cruel old murthy??? You made things dirty shaker. I won't ever excuse. I swear if anything happens to her mark my words anything you will see real nyeonika malhotra not you so called bhabhi.
After death of your Bhai I made this family business worked out. You are your bother we're kids. I became mother for you two along with Manik. Instead being as my child you made my life hell."
"Bhabhi!!! I am wrong I don't want this no never I am wrong. Sorry" shaker folded his hands in front of nyeonika
"Pray god shaker that she should come home safely" she walked away sat besides Manik. Manik hugged her.
