Being tired with the whole chaos around him Manik slept on Nandini still inside her. Nandini was still catching her breathes wen she realised his body being more heavy on her n that's wen she realised that he is fast asleep.
She tried to move and then realised that he is still inside her and remembered that how they became one n she went in flashbacks and that wens she again remembered that he is badly hurt physically and she needs to treat him.
She hugged him tightly and then rolled herself on him making him lay down on the floor over a thin bedsheet as their mattress. Wen she rolled their body moved n it pained her down there bt she controlled herself.
Making him lay straight Nandini came up on him and all ready to come out of him. Unaware of all this she was taking all that easily bt as soon as she moved out a lil she felt extreme pain on her part. Palming her mouth to not let out her painful hiss n wake up Manik Nandini with other hand cupped her lower abdomen.
Taking deep long breathes Nandini came out of him n immediately covered Manik with the quilt they bought. She sat a lil away from him and realised that her part is flowing some liquid n she cupped her to stop and rush to the small bathroom there made up of mud to clean herself.
She removed her hand and noticed blood n realised wat it was she quickly cleaned her down part and came back to wear something. She picked up manik's shirt bt realised that it's to dirty and tmrw morning he will need it.
Leaving his shirt she quickly wore her dress (same orange dress of talent hunt n Manik also in his orange shirt) and came to the small kitchen still cupping her lower abdomen which was paining to her.
She quickly made haldi paste and came near him. She caressed the wound in his hand and again cried thinking wat all difficulties he have to go through and how he use to live his life back there in Mumbai.
Admist her tears Nandini applied that paste on his wound on his palm and hands and back of shoulder. Once she was done with that she came out of her house near the hand pump and started removing water from that.
Getting in she took manik's clothes and went in the small bathroom and started washing his clothes inspite of the pain in her body. Washing the clothes she quickly hang them for drying n than came beside Manik to sleep. Bt sleep was far away from him as she was adoring Manik bt noticed his restless, hurt n tired face and cried for him. Unknowingly she slept close to him.
She woke up in the morning wen there was continuous knock on the door. Hurriedly she woke up and rushed to the door. Wen she opened the door it was the same lady living beside her in short her neighbour with whom she gelled up quickly yesterday.
She opened lil of th door as she knew manik's condition.and asked
Nan-aap yahan
In Rajasthani accent
La-ji Mei yeh bol ne aayi thi k gaon k saare mard thodi duri pe kaam krne jate hai aur 9 baje ek bus aati hai unhone lekar jaati hai aur shaam ko chod k jaati hai... tere bind (husband) ko bhi kaam chahiye na toh waha pe mil jayega
Nandini was a lil happy that so much facility is been provided so the work will be good only so she agreed and thanked her and asked
Nan-abhi kitne baje hai
La-6 baj gaye hai
Nan-thik hai
Than she closed the door and got back to her work. She quickly started her cooking so that she can send lunch with Manik. Than she made breakfast for them and than she filled a vessel to boil water so that Manik can take a bath from that by mixing some normal water .
