Happy reading

AFTER FIVE YEARS

 "You all need to concentrate even on the small bit of information may be it is important or not just don't forget to think about it." I said and wrote small information on white board with black marker. Someone raised hand from the 3rd row and I gestured that student to ask the question. It was a female student, probably her name is Samudhyata. She is one of the student who have great passion towards this field and constantly asks question to improve herself.

 "Mam can you explain in brief?" she asked and I remembered the even of Varna. Hariharan. "Do you know the MMVH case where we handled that case?" I asked and I got the chorus of yes. "Kabir got everything but failed to notice that why would a maid's daughter accompany a couple instead of their daughter? But thank goodness that I noticed it and Manik also observed the school photo of them where he called the school to identify who is Vaseema and who is Vidya. We got to know then that the person we thought Vidya was Vaseema. This lead to solve the case." I said and the girl was satisfied by the answer.

 I finished the coaching and was collecting the things. "Mam, can I ask you a question?" same Samudhyata asked. This has been a routine now. I nodded to her with a smile. "What happened to Vaseema that she surrendered to police?" this was the same question I had asked Vaseema when she demanded to see the one who handled MMVH. 

 "I had met her and she asked sorry for everything she did to me and Vibha. Her answer was very shocking. You know she was an illegitimate and wanted to be loved so when she entered Mafia she got attention and she misunderstood it as love. They all were selfish and stayed in her good books fearing for their life. When she got to know that her power and attention was being snatched she became the demon just like her father. She told that the one she assumed as love was not the love. After meeting me, Vibha in that torn building she came to know what love is."

 "To save Manik from her bullet I had pushed him and taken it. Same was with Vibha but it was her father. She was so stunned by this and after a week she thought about all the things she did and was guilty so she surrendered." I completed my explanation which she has noted in her notepad. She is really a bright student. I have high expectations from her.  "Hello Manik, I know I am late but please understand. Abhi asked me personally to train them as no one was going in sting operation." alas I heard the series of words how to take a good care of myself. 

 Its been five years and I am really very happy. Once I completed my journalism I started helping Mukti in Delhi itself. Manik's project got extended for a year and we are now back to Mumbai. I think I am forgetting very important thing today but I can't remember it. It's not any special day, it's just Saturday. I looked at the message of Rishab. He was asking my whereabouts as m=er Amms instruction. I took some time to mend the relation between Amms and me  but I succeeded at the end now she asks me time to time my whereabouts through Rishab.

 She even sent Rishab near me when I was in Delhi who was a bone between Manik and me every time. We used to bribe him and he would give us privilege to go on a dates and tours. Vibha is lot better now. I became a cupid and she is in relationship with Aditya. Oberoi for 3 years. They are engaged and tying the knot coming year. I reached the Mansion of Malhotras as Manik was asking me to come there.

 I opened the door only to be greeted with many people standing in front of me singing the happy birthday song. That is the thing I was forgetting. I forgot my birthday and these surprised me. "thank you so much everyone.!!!" I yelled and entered the mansion. I cut the cake and thought of feeding it to Manik or uncle or aunt or Rishab I was confused so I ate it myself and everyone laughed. "Hey, in my defence I am hungry. I didn't even have my launch." that was enough for Abhi and Manik to give me the lecture how food is important.

 "Hello everyone! I request Nandini's family, My family and friends to come front." Manik said and everyone were confused. He gestured me to come near him and I made my way. "As you all know Nandini and I are in love with one another from past 5 years and today I..." he bent down on his knee and presented a velvet box and if I am right he is proposing me. "in the presence of all family and friends I Manik. Malhotra ask Nandini,....." my eyes were  wide and my jaw dropped. 

 He is proposing me. What should I do? "Nandini!? will you marry me?" he asked and everyone were waiting for my answer. I looked at uncle and Rishab they nodded at me assuring me to continue. that was all I needed to say yes. "Yes Manik, I will marry you." I said. He put the finger ring to my finger which was of Ruby. He hugged me and we were engulfed in a bigger hug by all our friends.

I was the orphan five years back but now I am not.

I was the one who believed that love was not for me but now I am not.

My dream was the only thing mattered but now along with it many things matters.

This all happened because of one person whom I considered as bully at the first day of my college. The bully changed to a saviour and into fake boyfriend and finally a real friend. Now going to change into husband. Do I regret? Hell no!!

 I love Manik and is looking forward to live with him all my life.

                        THE END
