Healed By Her ❤️

Chapter 26

Slipping the phone in my pocket I took a few deep breaths before walking back in the room

I was expecting nandini to be sitting there with a glare or maybe even not there because I was assuming she went to her room but no she was there.

In fact, she was laying in my bed under the covers, she was fast a sleep. when I sat on the bed I noticed she was still holding a spatula and the wooden spoon as she sleeps peacefully

"I thought you couldn't sleep" I whisper caressing her arm

I try to take the spoon and spatula from her but she stirs in her sleep, opening her eyes.

"Why you being mean" she asks licking her lips before she slips on her side facing me

Before I can answer she was back a sleep holding her stupid cutlery, this girl makes me wonder and question a shit ton of things

I don't know why I feel a certain way about her or why these feelings are starting to arise and can't help it. I feel like the five months she has been here working for me, my life has been better

"Yummy" she mumbles in her sleep

I wonder what she is dreaming about.

'Hey are you up' I texted cabir

'No but I am' navya texted back

'Wake up your husband I am coming over'

"Coming over where?'

'To your room so get dressed you nasty kids'

'Ha ha ha, that wasn't funny at all' she replies

I chuckle a little making my way over to their room which is on the bottom floor.

"It's open" navya yells when I knock on the door

i walk in and made myself comfortable on the couch

"What are you doing here so late?" She asks

"Need to talk I guess"

"You hate talking so let me guess, it's nandini, she is the reason behind this all?"

"No" I lie

"Bullshit bro, get it together and tell me you love her"

i couldn't help but cough as something gets stuck in my throat, who the fuck am I even kidding, I was coughing on my own spit

"There it is" she whispers

"What are you talking about?"

"Why is it that the guy who showed absolutely no emotions, no feelings, felt nothing is starting to feel things" she asks

"I don't feel anything"

"Manik you can lie to me sweetie but not to yourself. Ever since nandini has started working with you, things have been different. You sometimes eat with us, you aren't always looking for darkness, you started having iced coffees, you eat more than a single meal. You are changing Manik and it hasn't been a rapid  change, it's been a steady change and I hope she continues to fill this black and white world of yours with colour"

I never really used to eat much, not after I saw what I saw and it used to keep me awake but slowly I started to sleep through a couple hours, but she is right, I have been very good at eating.

I have breakfast with nandini, lunch with nandini and sometimes even dinner with her because we work very late but when I'm not with her I don't eat much.

She s also right about the iced coffee's, I strictly drank hot black coffee but somehow she has started incorporating her little things into my life

"Navya there is nothing happening" I whisper 

"He will never agree navya, he is blind as fuck"

"Oh wow now you are awake" I taunt seeing him commenting on shit

"Clearly I am becasue you are in my room chatting it up with my wife"

"Your wife is my sister you bitch"

"You wanna use those two words in the same sentence again?" She asks with that stupid glare she tries on me

I am a ceo, but this girl will try to scare me, see there is a similarity between her and navya, they both think that a glare is enough to scare me

"Shut up both of you"

"Don't be disrespecting me" she smirks

"Girl don't even with me right now, I can't deal with half my head and the last thing I need is you being you"

"What is it?" Cabir asks

"I don't know, my head is everywhere and I feel like half of me is feeling things and the other half is pushing it" I explain or try to I suppose

"Listen to the part that's feeling becasue pushing gets you nowhere" he replies patting the bed beside him

Instead of sitting beside him, I walk to navya's side sitting beside her. Cabir and I are buds, we are ride or die but navya, she is that older sister figure in my life.

I remember how she held me for hours when I felt nothing, both her and cabir are my life.

"What's going on?" Cabir asks again

"Nyonika" I whisper before I explain the papers and stuff

"God damn this women is fucked in the head" I chuckle hearing navya

"In more ways than one but yeah. I am leaving tomorrow morning to Bali and it's stressing me out that she will pull some kind of shit whne I'm away"

"Who cares, just relax and enjoy your time with nandini, if something happens we will deal with it" he assures

"Sure but I don't feel good about this"

a grin covers both their faces for some reason

"What?" I snap

These two are smiling like they are on crack while I am telling them how bothered and stressed I actually am

"You are feeling things, gosh darn it, this little girl is making him feel stuff. Gosh I love Nandini" cabir gushes like a girl

"Shut up, both of you are of no use, bye" I say getting up but navya smacks my back

"What?" I ask turning to her

"Keep her" she whispers

I don't say anything but there was a smile on my face as I walked out of their room
