BROKEN - to be healed by her (manan ff)✔️

24: Breaking the ice!

Nandini's pov:

                       My hands were still ruffling his hair, it's been past an hour I felt his heavy breath and found him in a deep disturbed slumber with slight frowns on his forehead, I caressed his forehead to get him rid of those frowns which settled on them and it worked.

The sky was still dark and the heavy pouring didn't seem to stop either anytime soon, the loud thundering was the only sound heard and frankly the night was turning to be a scary one. I usually would have petrified by now but today, it was different. My thoughts consumed me in a way that I was oblivious of my surroundings. Even though the freaky sounds managed to hit my ear drums it still couldn't manage to distract me from my thoughts...

Thoughts which consumed only him. This man leaves me amused every damm time!!! He's bipolar nature is something that had managed to wreck every brain cell of mine. At one moment he'll be all bossy and ruthless and next he'll be all caring, trust me this has manage to leave me as confused as I have never been in my life so far!!!

Everything that involves him turns out to be unusual, Like...this journey. A simple journey turned out to be one heck of a rollercoaster ride. From almost ready to slit each others throats to here being the closest we have ever been so far!

Thinking about the journey my thoughts drifted back to the scene downstairs. The rage I saw in his eyes at that instance was unusual, even though he gets angry at every other thing...but... Never have I ever seen him  this angry..

Here when I was thinking about his behavior I started contemplating mine as well...like..one being, me not offending the way he held my hand, usually I would have blown up but I didn't, I wasn't uncomfortable either infact I felt safe in his presence....and even a while ago when he asked me to stay I couldn't deny, even after being well aware of the consequences..I wasn't ready to leave him in that state just cuz of fearing about the aftermath, with all the why's in my head I failed to remember when the sleep consumed me......

----------------------------------

Next morning:

                     My slumber was broken with the notorious ray of sunshine which were hell bent on disturbing my sleep, after various failed attempts of getting away with them when I couldn't do so, I woke up. As I was trying to get away with my sleep realization stuck me that my lap was supposed to be heavy but on finding no weight on it I frowned in confusion.

My eyes went to look for the watch which ticked 7:30.

Eye scanning the room around for a certain someone I sat but on finding nothing, my eyes freezed on the bathroom's door expecting him to be in.

Walking towards the bathroom to verify my assumptions only to have left disheartened again.

I was a bit worried as his last night state flashed in front of my eyes..shaking my head to drive all the negative thoughts away I left to freshen up....

I came back after taking my own sweet time to find him sitting on his wearing his shoes he was all ready..he looked up to me for a sec before going back to his work even I preferred avoiding talking to him for now and got ready as my ignorance game was on my pace of getting ready was slower than a snail but guess what!!

It still took me just 20 minutes to be done * who the hell said girls take forever to get ready and if they do i soo wish i was one such girl for at least today!!!*

I moved to pack my stuff not before sparing my reflection a quick glance. I was expecting him to reciprocate the same ignore game but talking me off-guard he spoke.
