Nandini looks at Manik who is sleeping like a baby. He is looking so calm and innocent at this time that no one will say this man teased her like no one did. Nandini chuckled at her thoughts. His lashes had fallen all over his eyes and his arms currently warped around mannat like a protective father securing his baby. A beautiful smile came on Nandini's face. 

She think playing with Manik lashes
“ I know what you want from me manik. I'm not stupid to not know your teasing, your care, your love for me and manu. You like me maybe more than that even though I have some magical feelings for you but I can't accept you, Manik. For the first time ever in my life my heart is beating for someone and that someone is you. I wanted to accept you as I too need someone who will take care of me when I work till late, I need someone who will be worried for me and manu when I rush to Hospital in an emergency. I'm tired of handling everything alone, Manik, I'm tired of fighting Alone, I'm tired of my own self. I want love and care but I can't. I can't give you hope and then break your heart. Every love story ends with marriage which I can't give you because I'm afraid of marriage. 

This word gives me nightmares in the form of Rohit. What if you also turn out like him after marriage? What if you too have some motive like Samir? I know you are good but I can't help. Rohit was also nice to us before marriage even after marriage he was nice to me but that night..” she shivers thinking about that night.

“ That night showed me his reality. That night I lost my trust in marriage, love and even lost myself in it. After that night I met the Rohit which I never knew even existed. I….” Nandini started crying thinking about her past. She now said with deep breaths pecking Manik's forehead “ you don't deserve garbage like me Manik. You deserve the best who will complete you. Being with me will only break you.” She shook her head to remove all the past thoughts and slept looking at Manik with her hand resting at Manik's cheek.

After 1/2 hour Manik opens his eyes when he feels like Nandini is asleep. He heard everything she said. He wakes up when she starts caressing his hair but stops to see what she will do. 

He looked at her and whispered “ if I don't deserve you then I don't deserve anyone. Because for me you are the definition of perfection. Give me a chance Nandini to heal you I promise to never break you both hearts.”

Manik carefully shifts Mannat aside then makes Nandini lay comfortably in bed. Then pecking their forehead covering them with a blanket. Manik starts searching for a diary. Manik read Nandini's favorite novel today suggested by khushi and in that novel the girl was so heartbroken. She had an abusive family, she used to write her pain in a diary. Then male protagonist entered her life and to heal her he read her diary to know where to start. and what happened to her?.

 So, if Nandini loves that novel then maybe she's inspired by the female protagonist. That's why Manik is searching for her diary.

He opens her cupboard and looks at the Upper salves. He frowned seeing the cartoon box and behind the box, some medicine and files were placed. He takes out a cartoon box and opens it to see lots of baby toys, clothes and albums are placed.
