"Manisha utho.. andar chalo...." He shook her slightly. Still she didn't wake up. She just frowned and adjusted herself comfortably and kept sleeping.

He looked at the ceiling and picked her up in his arms and took her inside their room and kept her on the bed beside abu and covered her properly.

He wanted to put her hair away from her face but decided against it. She probably won't like it, his touch ..he thought.

He opened his cupboard and took the letter out.

He went and sat on the balcony and opened the letter again. The letter which she had left for him. As he began to read it again everything came flashing in front of his eyes.

Flashback

Abhishek was doing a new web series with chitranshi and his shot was done for the day.

"Abhi....umm..is it okay if we rehearse tomorrow's scene now? do you have time? because we are gonna shoot it during sunrise in the terrace set up.. we'll rehearse so it will be easy tomorrow because we have to finish it during sunrise....so it will be easy if it is rehearsed...." She told him.

"Actually..you know na manisha doing all the arrangements all alone..so I planned dinner for her.." he said

"Oh.. I'm sorry yaar..no problem you go.. I'll tell director sir that I'm busy that's why we couldn't rehearse..if anything happens I'll take responsibility... don't worry..you go and enjoy.." she smiled at him

"Chitranshi you are a good human but I don't want to create any problem for anyone.. and we'll do our rehearsal "

"Are you sure? You planned something and.."

"Haan haan sure..manisha is also in the industry..she knows and respects professionalism..." He said

"But the set is being cleaned....should we do it in my vanity?" She asked

"Sure....you call everyone and I will come after taking my shower...."

"Okay I will call the Assistant Director..." She went away and abhi went to his vanity.

After sometime he come to her Vanity in same clothes

"What happened you didn't change yet?"

"Idk what happened in my vanity..the power supply is off..so I couldn't"

"You don't consider me as your close one right?"

"What ?" He asked confusingly

"As far I know we are friends..you can easily take a shower in my vanity and freshen up..the team will be a little late..you go and take a shower.." she offered

"No no..no need.. I'm fine anyways..." He hesitate

"If you consider me as your friend then please..or you're scared of your girlfriend.?" She laughed

"Ummm..my girl is more secure than you think..she knows I'm only hers..common you see us in BB house..we have confidence in our relationship..but you're my friend and now I am going to take shower.. I'll be back with my clothes" he laughed and went back to bring his clothes

The team came to her vanity and they rehearsed the scene which was an intimate one which required her to sit on his lap and kiss each other's neck passionately

By that time mani half opened the door and saw him with her. What she didn't see was the team was also there behind the door on the other side of the vanity and had left misunderstanding the situation.

The rehearsal and briefing was done late  and he drove back home immediately.

"my baby....I missed you baby.." he cuddled her tightly and kissed her forehead and cheeks as soon as he came inside.

"How was your day?" she whispered.

"Nice....as usual....hectic shoot and readings and meetings...." he sighed and laid down on the bed and kept his head on her lap.

"Why are you wearing this dress? are you going somewhere? or are we?" he winked at her.

"I just came home from the salon." she whispered again

"babu you okay?" he sat up and cupped her cheeks. She nodded.

"No you are not....tell me what happened?" He rubbed his thumb across her cheek.

"How was your day?" she asked looking at his eyes.

"It was good...." he frowned in confusion since she had asked this twice

"Okay....I will use the washroom and come...." She went to the washroom.

Meanwhile chitranshi's manager called him and told him that she's not well and he's out of town and her other friends are not picking up the calls so he called him to help her...he requested him to go to her place and checked on her urgently.

After a couple of minutes she came out washing her face.

"Babu I will come in half an hour and we need to talk okay? I don't think you are fine.... I just got an important call actually chitranshi isn't well..." he came and kissed her forehead.

"Half an hour okay baby? l am coming and I will order dinner." he went out.

He had come home in an hour and unlocked the door and came inside.

"Babyyy....come fast mani I got your favorite cupcakes...now your mood will be fine...." he kept it on the dining table and had a glass of water.

Mani didn't come out.

"Manishaa..." he said loudly.

"Where are you?" he pouted and went to their room. She was not there. He checked the washroom.

"Where did she go? she didn't say she had to go somewhere.." he frowned and dialled her number. Her phone was switched off.

"What?" he frowned and sat on the bed.

"Manisha yaar I miss you come fast.." he laid down on the bed and saw their wedding cards and a paper kept on the side table. He frowned and took it and started to read it.

As soon as he finished reading the letter he had dropped down on his knees. He felt numb. His entire body had gone numb. He couldn't think straight. He called every freaking person he could think of who was close to either of them or both but nobody knew about her.

He took his car and drove to every place he could think of throughout the night but she was nowhere. He went to the airport but he got nothing from there as well.

He had cancelled his shoot and came home early in the morning after the entire night of madness. He sat on the floor leaning on the couch as the gravity of the situation hit him. Silent tears dropped down his cheeks and he sat on the floor broken, in tears.

Flashback Ends

He came out of his reverie as he finished reading the letter and clutched the letter close to his chest and sobbed.

"I love you.. I missed you so much.." he gasped for air.

"Why didn't you trust me? how could you think I could do that to you...I understand you.. I understand your situation..I understand what you saw was too much to take...I would have been angry as well...but why didn't you question me? hit me...slap me..shout at me....why did you leave me?all alone..you ruined us..you kept way my daughter for so long... I'm not gonna forgive you so easily" sobbed and buried his face into his knees.
