Chapter 1 : After 5 Years

After 5 Years

A dark room is seen, things are broken every where just like Manik's heart.
"Nandini, it's been 5 years still the pain is so much, pain of loosing you. Regret that why I was not there at that moment, why I have not picked your phone, why you left me here alone."

Dhawan House

A person is pacing around the room & trying to call Manik.

Navya - Cabir, what happened?
Cabir - Manik is not picking up his phone. I called to driver, cook but manik has given them day off, neither he is picking landline. He is alone specially today.

Navya - Oh god Cabir, Manik should not remain alone .

Cabir - You are right Navya. I am leaving for his house. I will inform Dhruv, Aliya & Mukti on my way.

Just then A little boy come - Dada where are you going , you promised me we will go to park.

Cabir kneel down in front baby - Abeer, You are a good boy na, I am going to Manik chachu's house, he is upset and alone there. We will go to park another day. Please understand baby.

Abeer- Dada, Manik chachu is upset, I will also come. We will play together, he will not feel alone and he will become happy.

Cabir - Abeer, not today beta some other day.

Navya - Cabir, I think Abeer is right, Manik will feel better in Abeer's presence. You inform Dhruv, Aliya & Mukti.

Cabir phone rings

Dhruv - Hey Cabir, teri bat Hui Manik se he is not picking up my phone, even Aliya and Mukti tried landline, but no response.

Cabir - Same here Dhruv, mene bhi try kiya but he is not picking my phone. Me abhi uske ghar hi ja raha hu. Let's meet there only.

Dhruv - Okay Cabir.
