"Alright, I'll tell you."
Mani nodded. "Okay. Spill."
"But first, let's go to the ambulance and fix your bleeding shoulder."
"No Swara. Speak."
"Your shoulder nee-"
"Swara, tell me the truth first."
Swara stopped arguing as she knew it was useless. She took a deep breath and tried to speak out the truth. However, she didn't know how to tell him.
"Swara?"
"I...I..."
Mani looked at her in irritation. "I'm waiting Swara. I haven't got all day, you know. Bes-"
"I love you!"
Mani looked at her in confusion. "But you said you love Laksh."
"It was a lie. I...I lied to you."
Mani felt the world crash around him. It was as if all this time he believed the earth to be square and someone suddenly told him it was round. His mind couldn't make sense of it.
"Yes Mani. I love you. I always have. I chose you among Laksh and you. I choose you Mani. I'll always choose you." she confessed genuinely.
Mani's confusion turned into a sense of joy at her words. However, another thought struck him.
Swara lied to him.
Mani looked at her, hurt evident in his eyes. "You...you lied to me?"
"I had to."
"You had to? You had to!?" Mani screamed in anguish, tears clouding his vision. "You say I'm your best-friend. You say you love me. And yet...yet, you lied to me about such a thing!?"
"Mani, I di-"
"Didn't what?! You thought playing with my feelings was funny? You thought it was cool to see me suffer?! How could you be so heartless?" Mani gritted out. "You know what? I think your love is fake! It's ju-"
"Mani!" Swara shouted, interrupting him. "You can shout at me as much as you want. But don't you dare call my love fake. I love you with my entire being! I love you to the extent...to the extent that I was willing to let you go just so that you could be happy with Ria."
