MaNan: Trust?

27

Cabir came out of the hospital while searching for Nandini. But he had not expected to see her in such a devastating state.

"Nanz?", He ran towards her & kneeled in front of her.

She cried harder as he lifted her face in his palms.

"Nanz? What's wrong? Tell me please?"

He pulled her in a hug as she cried holding his tshirt in her fist.

"Cabir...", She cried calling out his name.

"Yes Nanz... I'm here. Tell me what happened?"

"Cabir... I... broke him.", She hiccuped as she uttered those words.

"Nanz... Did you....? Is it... is it because of Alya?", Cabir asked being unsure.

She kept quiet convincing him that his guess was right.

He tightened his hold around her & dropped a small kiss at her head.

"You are strong.", He whispered making her shake her head in a no.

Cabir wanted to tell her how wrong she was in letting go of the person she loved. But he turned selfish. He knew fab 5 would be broken if Nandini chose her happiness.

He instead chose to support Nandini in her decision & help her to move on.

"Yes you are Nanz. Not everyone can let go of their happiness for others.", He muttered pulling her up to her feet.

"Come let's go inside." He added.

"Cabir... Take me home please. I want to be alone for sometime."

"No I can't leave you alone in this state. And also we can't leave Alya alone with Mukti. Dhruv won't be able to handle if Mukti loses her calm. I have convinced her with great difficulty to let go of her anger atleast till Alya gets discharged.", He told her stubbornly making her sigh.

"Cabir please, I promise I will be fine. I just want to be alone for some time."

"We almost lost Alya Nanz. Can't risk leaving you alone in such vulnerable state.", He told her in a no nonsense tone and dragged her inside.

Manik was driving as tears were falling carelessly over his cheeks.

"You are a worthless piece of shit. Why didn't you die in my womb?"

"My life would have been a lot better if you weren't born."

"You fucking Bastard... How dare you eat without my permission? Did I give you permission to eat? You won't understand simple words right?"

"You broke my best friends heart & I broke yours. Mission accomplished. Now we don't have to cross each others path."

"Shall I tell you a secret? Don't tell anyone."

"I Love You."

"We can't be together."

"I'm sorry."

Tears blurred his vision as he tried to concentrate on the road. He saw a truck coming his way. He felt an unpleasant sensation in his head followed by a splitting headache. He knew that feeling. He knew he would pass out any moment if he didn't calm down. He was having a fucking panic attack while driving.

He steered sharply to the right in order to miss the truck. But before he could realise what happened, the truck had banged against left side of his car & the car had toppled upside down.
