"Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go onFar across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on."

(My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion)


Tchh!!!

"Avneet, why did you stop the song? What's the problem?" Nandini was annoyed with her younger sister's behavior. 

There she was standing beside the door keeping her hands either side of her waist

There she was standing beside the door keeping her hands either side of her waist. She rolled her eyes visually examining at her sister and the way she was getting exasperated with this minuscule matter. 

"Ohh.. Miss. Danger, wait wait wait, let me understand the matter better before we start arguing over this."

Nandini got down from her bed and stood in front of Avneet. "What're you talking about? What matter? Which matter?"

Avneet smirked. "It's not some random matter. The matter seems to be genuinely solemn. I mean sad songs, dark room, chocolate flavour ice-cream. Wow! Everything is pointing to one direction only."

"What?" Nandini looked at Avneet with the corner of her eyes.

"The pain of separation. The pain of heart break."

"Avneet!" Nandini shouted on top of her voice. "I'm gonna kill you today. You've become precocious. Who has asked you to blow your nose in my matter? Get out from here right now. Just leave." She was fuming.

"Wow! Wow! Wow!" Avneet made a woebegone face. "Just because of this, just because of people like you it says never do good to people and you should stay 1000 miles away, if the person is like you. Where I thought that my beautiful sister is so sad and crying at some corner, precisely in her room, so I should I go and console her a little. Then she will feel better. But what did you say? Leave from here!"

Nandini sighed seeing her dramatic behavior. She turned and went to sit on her bed. 

Seeing her not saying anything, Avneet felt bad for her sister. Even though Nandini never told her anything about her feelings for Manik or something else. But Nandini is her sister who has literally raised her up since their mother's death. So, how could she not know what's there in the heart of her mother like sister? She also knew why she was sad. She has been seeing Manik and her sister since her birth. Manik is like a brother to her and she knew he was the perfect one for her sister.

Avneet couldn't help feeling bad for her sister. She was well cognizant of what all Nandini had to go through all her life because of their father mainly. That's why, she had approved Manik for Nandini. After all, he was the one who could console Nandini and he was the one who can protect Nandini from this vicious world.
