** MANIK **

I just can't believe the way this day turned out. Never in my wildest dream I'd imagined that Cabir, Cabir will leave my side. Am I this loathsome that everybody one after the other is leaving me? Then again there is this girl sitting beside me after she has every reason kick my balls and never see my face again.

"Why do you trust me ?" I asked absentmindedly looking straight while driving.

"Who says I do ?" Her tone was clipped. I took a deep breath.

"Then why are u coming with me?"

"Coz I don't have enough money to pay you if I violet the contract." She answered and kept looking outside the window.

The drive was already so painful and her answer made it all the way more difficult. THE CONTRACT. Of course I remember the look of helplessness on her face when I practically blackmailed her to sign that. I didn't want to hurt her and I definitely wouldn't have charged a penny. It's just that I needed to get out of those flings, I needed someone permanently, I was tired of picking on a new girl every night who starts clinging to me. Or may be after Aliya I'm scared that people will leave me. I knew she won't do the things, she won't go in the Parties with me if I simply tell her to do so. So I bound her in this stupid Contract.

"Why your phone is switched off ? I was trying to call you." I tried to start the conversation again while glancing her from the corner of my eyes. She didn't answer me anything instead started digging into her purse for something. She pulled out the phone I had given her and put it in the bottle rest between us.

"It's dead. Yesterday when I was trying to call you, all the battery was drained. So...."

"So what ? Don't you have charger? Why are you giving it me?"  I picked the cell phone and tried to give it back to her while driving with other hand.

"Sir. It seems like. This phone is of no use. You can't contact me even if I have this and I wasn't able to reach you either. So I don't think I should keep it with me. However it seems really costly." Her words startled me and I hit the brakes immediately.

"What..!!! Nandini it's rubbish. Just keep it okay..!!" I dropped the phone in her lap and was about to hit the engine but the phone came in front of me again.

"I'm sorry sir. I can't take this. If you're worried about how u will tell me to come then u can tell any of your servants, and they will convey it to me." She said in all grumpy tone. This girl seriously knows how to get into someone's nerves.

"W-what are talking? And what's with this sir ? I told you to call me Manik." I gritted my teeth. I'm really loosing it now.

"We are not friends or something that I call u by your name. We are tied with a bond, Professionally, So it's better if I call u Sir only. And don't worry about ur events I'll call u by your name there."

Wow.. Really wow. Each of her word kept ringing in my ears reminding me of Cabir cutting out his ties with me.

"Great. U've really learned something from Cabir... Yeah??"

The volcano was burning inside me as I stopped the car in front of my mansion. I climbed out of the car slamming the door shut.

What the hell was that ?? Are they conspiring against me..??

What the hell do they think?? I can't live without them..

Huh...!! They are not like air and water for me..!!

I strode towards the cupboard and pulled out a pair of  trousers and t-shirt and went for a shower.

Shower..!!
