Nandini opened the door to see a devastated Manik so she took him in n closed the door n Manik started walking in so Nandini followed him
Cmg near sofa Nandini noticed manik's left hand swollen badly so she panicked n taking his palm in her hand she asked
Nan-Manikkkk........yeh kaise hova........
Bt no reply so she asked him curiously
Nan-bolo Manik
Manik looked at her with wet eyes so Nandini took him near sofa saying
Nan-yahan betho........sit
She made him sit on the sofa n rushed to get water for him. Making him drink water Nandini kneeled in front of him taking his swollen hand n asked softly
Nan-yeh kaise hova Manik
Manik looked in her eyes and remained silent for 2 mins n than said softly
Ma-after you left I beat the hell out of harshad
These was the least she wanted so bowing her head on his swollen hand gently Nandini said
Nan-ooohhh Manik
N rested like that for a while and than lifting her head with moist eyes she asked lovingly tracing her thumb on his hand very gently as if lil pressure will break him like glasses
Nan-dard ho rha hai
Hearing her loving peaceful voice manik's all emotions drained out leaving him tired n than like a small child bobbed his head for once saying yes so Nandini leaned down a lil n kissed his hand very softly n than said looking at him
Nan-yahi betho mei 5 min Mei aati ho
With this she rushed in his room n got white band aid roll n than went in kitchen n quickly made Haldi paste n came out with that
Sitting on the floor infront of Manik Nandini took his swollen hand in her left hand n said to him
Nan-thoda sa Garam lagega tumhe bt that is needed thik hai
Manik blinked his eyes n Nandini took that hot paste in her hand n blew air to make it a lil cold n than started applying on his swollen hand gently
Applying the whole paste over his hurt hand Nandini kept lil cotton n than started rolling that with band aid doing his dressing properly
Once she was done she took all the things that she used n kept everything in kitchen washing n wiping her hands she came back to Manik n again sat on floor infront of him n taking his hand in hers she said very softly n lovingly
Nan-kyu maara usko Manik........
Manik looked at her with questioning eyes while Nandini continued in the same tone
Nan-tumhe kya laga meine tumhe canteen mei roka tha to show my control on you (she took a good pause n said) no...... I was not showing my control on you I was just stopping you Manik coz
Again she took a pause n than a deep breathe n said
Nan-Manik harsahd akela hai uske aage piche koi nhi hai uske pass khone k liye kuch nhi hai koi nhi hai ........bt you have ppl around you fab5 mei hum sab tumhari fmly hai n ab to navya k sath sath we have aarav too.........Manik harshad has turn out to be too evil woh apne hatred Mei revenge Mei itna kho gaya hai that he has lost himself in it....... woh muje marne k chakkar Mei he forget k jail usse bhi hogi.......n I was stopping you coz woh tumhe pareshaan krne k liye kisi ko bhi hurt kr skta hai...... hum mei se koi bhi hurt hoga hum sab ko bura lagega .......hai na? N Manik agar he is determined to hurt me than are you not determined to save me from him?
