His Lifelines ( SEASON 2) {{ ON HOLD }}

|| SIX ||

Two people were none other than Dadu Malhorta and Dadu Murthy.

Manik ignored them and rushed behind Nandini

Before, he would enter she locked the room from inside

Manik banging the door

Manik : Nandini open the door , listen to me

No response from Nandini

Cabir and Mukti rushed behind Manik to see him banging the door

Manik: Cabir get the keys fast

Manik : Nandini listen to me for just once

He unlocked the door and got shocked to see her curled in a ball and sitting at the corner of the room

Manik : Nandini

He shooked her but she was silent and only her tears were flowing down

Cabir handed Manik a glass of water to make Nandini drink. Instead , she angrily threw it on floor

Nandu : I don't want any water, all of you just get out of the room , I want some alone time and you Mr.Malhotra I don't want to hear any explanations from you, just move out

She shouted at the top of her voice

She was hell angry and shivering

Manik controlling himself

Manik : Calm down , if you want we're moving out, just relax

Saying they all moved out but he kept the door open so they can look upon her

Her,Nandu sat crying. She was totally devastated, she didn't know how to trust and whom not to trust.

Her, Dadu's words rang in her ears again and she was going mad over it. She was left all alone, her sister too was gone, she had no one whom she called her own back in India, they don't care about her at all.

What if Manik too is same as other Malhorta people ? They took away her mother when she was a small kid. She can't trust anyone now, She was all afraid and alone surrounded by darkness.

Her eyes landed on a nearby knife, some unwanted thoughts clouded her mind and she grabbed it and slit her wrist down.

Blood started oozing out and she slowly lost her consciousness.

Cabir , Manik and Mukti sat outside. Every few seconds Manik's eyes would land on her room and hearing her sobs he used to give himself relive that she is okay. She is angry with him, but he would make her understand and he was determined about it.

Few minutes passed and Manik didn't hear anything.

Manik : I'll go and check upon her

Saying he walked up inside and upon seeing Nandini lying in a pool of blood, he stumbled upon his feet

Manik : Cabir

He shouted, Cabir and Mukti rushed to see what blunder Nandini had created

Without, thinking anything Manik picked up Nandini and rushed to car

-

Hospital,

Manik : Doctor, doctor

He was crying and fearing to lose her

Doctor admitted her and began to operate her. Manik stood outside her room watching her getting treated through glass

Few hours passed by,

Manik : Doctor she is fine right ?

Doctor: She is fine , it was at the right time you got her admitted as she had lost lots of blood

Manik walked inside her room, holding Trisha who was amused by new surroundings

Seeing, Nandu lying on hospital bed , Manik sat on a chair next to Her, while Trisha began to pat her on her face

Manik pulled Trisha back and made her stood on floor

Trish stood by Nandu's side and began to wake her up, but Nandu was under medicines dose

Trisha : Wakeee up.. no sleepy ..Trish playing

Saying she began to shook her

Manik : Princess , Nandu Maasi is sleeping ..She will play once she wakeee up

Trish began to play with her stuffed toy she was having in her hand, running around the hospital room

After 14 hours,

Trish was sleeping in Manik's arms while he sat next to Nandini's bed staring at her sleeping figure. Cabir asked him to handed over Trisha to him but he denied and hold her close to him. He hadn't spoken a single word, nor had left Nandu's side. Instead, Cabir and Mukti got Trisha's food and some warm clothes for her in hospital and Manik feed Trisha, and she after having her medicines dozed off in Manik's arms. It was almost midnight, still Manik was full awake staring at unconscious Nandu. Cabir was outside the room and had dozed off, while Mukti took the small bed next to Nandu.

It was almost 4 in the morning, when Trisha stirred in her sleep and Manik who had rested his head on the wall opened his eyes quickly.

Trisha: Mamma...dadda..

Saying she began to cry

Manik : Trish ...See Dadda is here ....dadda ..will play with his Princess

Saying he rested his head on her shoulders and moving around began to pat her back, dozing her back to sleep

Cabir's sleep got disturbed and he walked inside the room to check upon Manik , but saw Manik was making Trisha sleep around 5 and at the same time Mukti too woke up.

Cabir : Hand her to me, I'll take her or else Mukti will take her home and you rest for sometime

Mukti : Yes, Manik hand her to me , I'll go home to prepare something for Trisha to eat and get something for you to eat as you haven't eaten anything

Manik : No, Trish will stay here

He spoke up with stubborness

Cabir : Try to listen Manik, she is small and may fall ill, Mukti will take care of her, and even I'll ask Marrie Aunty to take her care, please

Manik gave upon Cabir, and handed sleeping Trisha to Mukti, after kissing her forehead

Mukti left with Trisha, while Cabir went to drop them, assuring Manik he will be back soon.

Manik was getting restless as Nandini was still unconscious, and his heart was full of fear

He didn't know what all was happening around him

He just wanted to hear her, that's it

He walked up to her bed

And shook her

Manik : It's enough of your stupidity wake up now

He shooked her lightly there was no response from her side.

Giving up, he sat on the floor with the support of the wall , and he didn't know when sleep slowly took over him

As he closed his eyes, around one hour, he had a dream a bad one and he woke up with a jerk. The dream was blurry so he wouldn't predict.

He got up from his place and checked upon Nandini, seeing her all the same, he stood at one corner observing her sleeping figure .
