Next morning, when Adhiraj woke up the first thing he checked for, was Manik. He sighed in relief after seeing him sleeping soundly. How ironic it was to get scared of this helpless man who usually make other's helpless and he won't lie but that was the hardest thing he faced last night.




He just thanked his own consciousness which brought him here at Manik's place after meeting his dad. Cause the Mafia was wide awake but that wasn't the cause of concern however the way he was destroying things to go out of the house, was. Gaurds were following the orders of Adhiraj to not let him go but he was Manik afterall, who can control him? No one.



When Adhiraj reached there
He was perplexed to see the Manik's desperation to go out and save her, he was going frantic with a thought what if she is still in fire. And that was the time Adhiraj realised Manik wasn't angry or in mood to destroy the world but he was just helpless lover trying to ensure about safety of precious miss little.



"She is fine Manik ....... Fire was instantly stopped as rain started pouring" knowing the subject of his concern, Adhiraj replied grabbing Manik's attention who paused after hearing him.


"Obviously, she has to be...... Let's go nd check with my own eyes" at that very instance Adhiraj knew she isn't the moth I'm their story but the fire which can either light up Manik's world with her presence or burn him with her absence.


But, he?



He was that love lorn moth longing to engulf the fire which can burn his existence into aahes.



It wasn't too long when he had to hit Manik again. Yeah it was hurting but it was the only way to stop Manik. If not longer then at least for a night. It's not like Manik will turn more sensible over a night but still he would be sober enough to deal with heart break or whatever. And then Adhiraj will manipulate him.




He also called doctor who put ointment on burnt area and also gave the injection to avoid any infection. Need not to mention he gave a sedative too which would work for 10hrs as it was necessary for Manik to sleep.


After half hour, Adhiraj got ready in Manik's room only. He decided to visit school again. He can't neglect the presence of drugs in school premises, even if he wants to. He was not sure when will Manik come but his father won't take any reason if Manik don't put last nail on security with his eyes.



"Nandini ...... Nandini" Manik's faint voice turned into a subtle scream as he opened his eyes slowly after a heavy dose of sleep nd medicines, his head was heavy. And his arm was burning when he tried moving it.



"Aaaah ..... Not again" Adhiraj silently groaned before turning to face Manik.


"Manik for the nth time I'm telling you accept the truth that she is married and get done with ur heart break ....... In fact it's not even a heart break, u wasn't in love with her ...... It was just attraction it will be over in a day or two ..... Okay" grabbing Manik's shoulder he tried launching some sense into Manik.



"U r not that stupid to not know that it's simply not attraction" without looking at him Manik replied in deadly tone.


"And u r moralistic enough to not be obsessed with married woman".



"Out of everyone, why she has to be married?"





"Manik listen calmly, we can't control her nd we surely can't change the past ...... And if it's hard to accept the truth then remember ur mother and ur last promise to her ...... No matter how worse of a person you have been but u have never crossed the line of decency with any woman ...... U have never disrespected any woman ...... Please don't disrespect Nandini by following her even after knowing she is married" he explained calmly. He looked at Manik who seemed lost and slightly he felt guilty for pushing Manik into the memories of his mother but again that was only his hope to save Manik from his own self.
