Broken Promises❤️‍🩹

Chapter 16

I rest my head against the pillow as I listen to cabir and navya chat, we were talking about random things and sure I was physically there but mentally I was right where Manik is.

I know he left because he is overwhelmed but I need him right now, I need him always but right now more than any. I am so god damn sore everywhere and I just want his comfort, him. I want him but I don't know how to ask for it.

"Hey kid we are going to go home" cabir says making me look at him

"Yeah, you guys look like shit" I joke

"Oh shut up, we look fresh" he laughs looking at himself in the mirror

I shake my head at him, he loves looking at himself in the mirror, will literally look at every single surface that reflect his face.

"So self obsessed" navya says

"Right, Jesus why did you marry him?" I tease

"You want me to smack you?" He asks

"Hey I am already half broken'

"Yeah about that, you are not going to be walking around alone anywhere at anytime and before you start arguing shhh, I am going to text Manik to come back"

As soon as I hear that I realize that the reason cabir and navya are going is so that manik and I can be alone, these two sneakers

"Seriously, you guys are so not slick with this stupid plan" I mumble glaring at them

"What plan?" Navya asks

"You think I'm stupid?"

"Welll"

"CABIRRRR" i yell

'Shhh, you will hurt yourself and yeah you are right we are going so you and him can have some time together and don't even act like you don't need it. Both of you need time together so don't fight it, he is trying to fight it and you well"

"Whatever, it's not like that at all" I lie

I did need him, I just want him around me

"really?"

I nod trying not to give anything away but I'm sure my face betrayed me in doing so

"So I should ask him to go home"

"yeah" I mumble very confidently because I know manik wouldn't

"Okay great so navya and I can stay with you and manik can go home"

"Said who?" manik mumbles as he walks in the room

"I did, nandini said you are not needed in here so navya and I will stay"

'She says a lot of shit, don't believe half of it"

"The fuck?" I groan

"Did you finish your food?" He asks

"Does it matter?" I ask

"Don't be bratty with me nandini, did you or did you not because you have to take medication"

"I am never bratty and stop being so rude with me, I am hurt"

"Because of your own day dreaming, who the fuck told you to go wandering on a fucking highway with music in"

I didn't tell anyone I had my music plugged into my headphones and the fact that he knows is so nostalgic, there was a time where I had headphones in and I was dancing around so I didn't hear manik call me for about 10 minutes and this man dropped his 2 million dollar meeting with international clients and got to our house in less than 20 minutes even though our house is about an hour away from the company
