Nandini's pov
I have been looking in the mirror for the last 40 minutes just trying to figure out what is going on with me but I haven't found an answer well exact for the actual answer you know.
I knew that he'd be there, I knew he would but I don't know why I thought there was a chance he wouldn't come but I can't lie and say I didn't want him to
Though I didn't want to face my past but a part of me wanted to see him. It's been 3 years and my heart couldn't take it anymore.
I lied to him about being engaged and he believed it, he didn't fight for me, he didn't argue with me and he sure as hell didn't grab my arm and tell me I only belong to him.
He simply said he was glad that I am happy, that is not my manik, that does not sound like him. My manik would scare people away if he even saw them looking at me wrongly but this manik walked away just like he did 3 years ago
"Hey how long is it going to takeee" I hear Ravi
"Sorry, jsut fixing my dress" I yell back
Ravi works in MD, malhotra dhawan industry with cabir and navya
"Girl you are stressing me out"
"How so?" I ask stepping out of the bathroom
"Woahhh you look gorgg"
"Thanks dude"
"Do you think this looks good?" He asks pointing at himself
"Fix this" I say fixing his collars
"Perfect" I mumble kissing his cheeks
"Come on, we gotta go" he says grabbing my hand
We walk to the car and he drives us to the venue of the reception.
A part of me is scared and anxious to see him again but then the other part of me is calm because I want to see him again. I could deny it as much as I want but he is someone I could never get over
You know sometime places clam people down but for me it's him, it's that person that calms me down
"Dang you really know how to decorate" Ravi says making me smile
"Told ya, I could do it"
"Okay I never doubted you, it was more of if you could handle it along with your job"
see thats the difference, he would never doubt my abilities to handle anything, instead he'd be right there supporting me weather it's silently or not.
"Whateverrrr"
"Haha okay lets grab some food, im hungry" he says
"Im not too hungry, why don't you get something to eat and I will be right back, just going to check on some things" he nods letting o off my hand
I check up on a few things before making my way to the back of the venue just to see if the generators and everything is good but I find someone sitting in the back, I couldn't see the face my it seemed like my heart knew the person
"Manik" I whisper to myself
I find myself walking closer to him for some reason, though I tell him I don't recognize him, it's utterly bullshit. Every single inch of my soul and body recognizes him.
"There is no need to walk all the way here, you and I both know that you know it's me" he says
Instantly I knew he isn't okay.
"Like I have said before I do not know you" I mumble walking closer to him
"Sure you don't, go lie to someone who doesn't know every inch of you" I shiver hearing him
He isn't wrong and I definitely should walk away but I can't, I cannot just walk away knowing he isn't okay.
"Walk away nandini" he mumbles
"You cannot be here, this is just for tech support" I mumble
"There are no signs telling me I can't be here so like I said walk the fuck away"
I gasp slightly when I step even closer and finally see his face.
There were bruises on his jaw and not just I bumped into something bruise, there were a few bruises
"What the fuck happened?" I couldn't help but ask
"Nothing that should concern you"
"Manik" I whisper, my heart jumps at me whispering his name
"Thought you didn't know me" he says
I sigh squatting down beside him, my eyes wander to his hand and his knuckles were bloodshot red and swollen.
"What in the world have you done?" I ask trying to find any other form of injuries with my eyes
"Wouldn't your little fiancé be concerned about your whereabouts?" He asks
I could tell he was taunting but fuck that, and yeah I lied about being engaged or whatever but who cares at this point, that isn't he main concern right now
"DON'T" he warns when I was about to touch his knuckles
"Manik"
"Do not touch me, don't be near me, do not" his eyes weren't even on me and thats different
Every single time him and I used to be around him, I would always find him looking at me. His eyes were meant to be on mine but here we are, a lot can change in 3 years
"You need to get this checked" I whisper
"Why?" He asks finally turning his head to me
His eyes meet mine and I feed overwhelmed. It was almost like all of his emotions and feelings were poring out from his eyes instead of his lips
"You don't look good, this will all start to get green and bruise more"
"What is it to you? Shouldn't you be worried about your little fiancé?" He asks
"He can take care of himself" I mumble
"So can I"
"We can see"
"Why does it matter? No seriously what the fuck is the problem? You said you don't know me and yet you ask questions like you know me. You care as if you know me personally but you don't so it doesn't fucking matter if I am bruised or I fucking die"
"MANIK" I yell
"There it is" he whispers as if he was proving a point and yeah I suppose he did prove a point that I care and that I know him.
I don't say anything but I could feel my heart beating fast even hearing about him not being there anymore and that thought alone fucks me up. Even though I hadn't seen him or heard from him in the past 3 years I knew he was okay, as okay as he could be.
"You are engaged aren't you?" He asks
"I am" I reply
"Then go be with your fiance"
"Manik you have to go to a clinic or the hospital"
"I am not stepping foot in a hospital or a clinic, even if I take my last breath id' rather not"
"Manik what the fuck are you talking about?"
"The only reason I stayed was because of someone and since that someone doesn't even fucking recognize me whats the point? So you know what, maybe you will see me in the hospital soon"
"Get your fucking head straight, this bullshit is beyond my head and yours. This is rubbish, put some ice on that stupid head" I yell at him before getting up from beside him
He is such a stupid dumbass especially when he is angry and annoyed at things.
"GET ME SOME GOD DMAN ICE THEN" he yells
"USE YOUR FUCKING HANDS AND DO IT YOURSELF ASSHOLE" I yell back
I heard him scoff as I walk inside.
