Nandini - ( hesitatingly ) ummm... i have composed something... sunoge.

Cabeer smiled and put her hand around her shoulders and pulled her closer.

Cabeer - ( sweetly ) sunaogi toh sunenge.

Nandini smiled and Cabeer left her.
She slowly played the strings a few times.

Nandini -
I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days
If that's what you want
Be your number one

I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that's what you ask
Give you all I am

I can do it
I can do it
I can do it

Her voice had pain now with the next para which can be clearly seen on her face even with closed eyes.

Nandini -
But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then
I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human

The pain in the voice increased and many frowns appeared on her face.

Nandini -
I can turn it on
Be a good machine
I can hold the weight of worlds
If that's what you need
Be your everything
I can do it
I can do it
I'll get through it

All got concerned for her as she now was not singing but giving out all her pain.

Nandini -
But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart 'Cause

As she sang these lines a clear emotion of anger and hatred came in her voice as she was spitting venom from her mouth

Nandini -
I'm only human
I'm only human
I'm only human
Just a little human

A drop of tear fell from her eyes. And she opened them. They were all red with anger and hatred in them. Mukti and Abhi were the first one to see it. They tried to calm her but she nodded in no and continue her song.

Nandini -
I can take so much
'Til I've had enough

'Cause I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human....

She completed her song and rest her head back and closed her eyes. All were worried and were afraid if she got another attack but Nandini's next statement removed all the fear in them.

Nandini - ( cheerfully ) How was it??

All were a bit taken a back by this.
