Chapter 6- I Loved a Wrong Person!

Nandini's POV...

"Doc-tor!"

His whisper froze me on my place and I stared at his shivering lips. 

For an istance everything stopped for me..

My heartbeat was so fast and few tears fell off my eyes on his cheek. My lips were parted as I tried to say something but nothing came out..

Manik's eyes half opened and his lips trembled more. His grip on my hand became so tight. I unintentionally leaned closer. He raised his free hand which was shivering like anything and his cold fingers touched my cheek to wipe the tears...

Oh Manik...

Oh my Manik...

I immediately held his hand over my cheek and I saw his lips trembling. He was saying something. I leaned forward and the whispers became clearer..

"Don't c-cry fo-for me! It hu-hurts me!" He whispered in a shaking tone and I let out another sob adjusting my forehead over his..

"Let me take care of you Manik! Let me be with you? Let YOUR doctor heal you!!" I whispered with still shaking sobs and I felt Manik's grip on my hands tightened..

"Doc-tor!" He too cried my name and I felt so much of pain in his voice...

"Bolo na Manik! Let it all out! I..! I will listen to you!" I spoke lovingly and Manik's lips trembled to say something when..

"Manik!" We both heard Navya screaming and I turned to see her rushing towards us. 

"Manik what happened? Are you okay? Oh God!" She held Manik's hand and Manik shook his head 

with a weak smile..

Soon Cabir came with a doctor and he literally pushed me out of the room though I didn't want to but he did..

"Navya! You have to tell me about Manik's weird behavior! Please! I know that you know!" I begged holding to Navya's hand she shook her head with a sad face..

"I don't know Nandini! It's Manik's secret which is only known to Cabir! He never told me!" Navya said in dismay and I sat on the floor holding my head in my hands.

What should I do??

"Nandini! Let him go! He is very stubborn! Us par aa kar Dunya khatam tou nahi ho jati na??" She said patting my hair and closed my eyes not bothering to answer her...

_______________________

"He is lucky that you saved him on time or else he would have been under severe hypothermia!" Doctor said with a small smile on his face and we nodded..

"Any medicine Doctor?" Cabir asked softly and I almost fell on the bed beside Manik..

"No! Just take care of his food and drinks! I have given him the required treatment! Hopefully he will be ok in morning! Right now he is under sedatives!" Doctor said in a professional tone and we all nodded. Cabir went out with him. Navya and I were left. 

I caressed his thick hair and Navya adjusted the blanket on him more carefully..

"Nandini! Let's get some sleep! And let Manik take rest!" She said to me and I nodded helplessly staring at his worn out face..

I was about to get up when he gripped my hand tightly in his this caused me to fell on his chest and my hair sprawled all over his face. I stared widely in his half opened, half closed sleepy eyes and his arms traveled around my waist holding me as close to him as possible..

"Manik!" I whispered softly cupping to his cheek and he snuggled in my touch..

"Ru-ruk ja-jaoa!" He pleaded slurring a lot as he was not in his senses due to sedatives and I once again choked..

"You are the one pushing me away Manik!" I said in a broken tone and he didn't answer me instead I saw his eyes getting closed..

He was asleep once again leaving no choice for me but to laid down next to him as he was holding to me tightly and instinctively he hide his face in my neck like a kitten..

What are you Manik?

I knew he stopped me because he was under sedatives or else he would have pushed me away...

"Good night!" I heard Navya saying and she went out closing the door behind her..

I look at Manik's sleeping calm face and pecked his forehead once again...

He was my love...

I realized that those 12 long months hadn't change anything but increased the intensity and passion..

I was scared of the rejection I will be facing in the morning but I can't leave him...

Staring at his beautiful calm face I too drifted to sleep..

Manik's POV..

"I Love You so much Manik!" She whispered in my ear as I sucked to her collarbone like my possession..

"Say it again!" I whispered in desperation and stared in her hazel orbs..

The orbs were filled with so much of love...

Love only for me...

Standing on the bridge of our town she was confessing to me..

"You don't trust me?" She asked cutely cupping to my left cheek and I smiled..

"You are the only one in my life to whom I trust! Say it again na?" I said impatiently and she giggled..

The music filled my ears and It forced a big smile on my face..

"Okay! You want me to say that again??" She asked playfully this time teasing me off limits as the snow pooled around us in feet and around my leather jacket covered shoulders and her red fur coat covered ones..

"Yes! I want you to say that again and again!" I said huskily bending to her ear and the tip of my tongue teased her ear..

"Manik!" She moaned my name turning me more on..

"Say it!" I groaned in her ear and she clutched to my jacket..

"I Lo--!" Before she could complete the words...

"Nandini!!!" An unfamiliar voice hit our ear and we both turned to see a guy standing..

His face wasn't visible to us but he opened his arms. 

Nandini look at him with a smile and she backed off from me. 

Wait! What? What's happening??

"Doctor! Where are you going?? Stop!" I panicked and tried to reach her but my feet were froze there. I was unable to move even a little..

She didn't stop and went running towards the stranger. She hugged him and I felt like my whole world collapsing..

"Hey! Doctor! You lier!!! You said that you love me! You cheater!" I shouted my lungs out and she turned to me..

"Bye Manik... You were the one who started this rejection game! Now it's my turn!" I heard her voice and she started walking with him..

"No! No! Doctor! Am sorry! Am so sorry! Please! Trust me! I love you!! I fu*king crazily love you!!!" I was shouting but they both disappeared..

"Fu*k!" I swore under my breath and opened my eyes sweating badly..

It was dream...

It was a dre---!

I felt something heavy on my chest and I looked at my side to see HER lying on my chest...

What the fu*k???

My eyes widened with shock and I tried to remember what happened last night but nothing made sense..

I slept outside on the bench and then?? 

I gulped the lump that had formed in my throat...

She smelt the same...

Exotic and like fresh strawberries...

Her long hair were spread across all over my chest and her one hand was tightly fisting my sweater shirt on her tiny palm..

Her breathing was even and she was fast asleep..

I noticed my own arm wrapped around her waist. Actually I was the one who was holding her close to me..

Did I faint last night and she found me?

But...

How did we land on the same bed??

What the hell I did last night??

Did I hurt her more? 

Biting my lower lip I caressed her face and slowly leaned forward as my lips lingered on her forehead...

Having her close to me after a fu*king whole long year was such a pleasurable feeling..

The feeling was beyond comparison..

I just wish I could hide myself in her embrace..

I wanted to love her..

I wanted to tell her that I...I lo--!

I wanted my every morning to be this special..

But...

Oh God...

I should be leaving India...

What if??

What if SHE come for me?. 

How will I be able to answer for everyone's questions??

Specially to Nandini's questions??

Before I could think more Nandini stirred and batted her eyelashes..

What should I do??

I immediately pulled my arm away and sat up..

She was still rubbing her eyes and I looked away. She too sat up a little away from me. She was at my back. I felt her sliding closer to me and soon I felt her cheek rested on my shoulder with her arms around my both shoulders..

I closed my eyes to control the urge of holding her back..

"Are you okay now? Thand tou nahi lag rahi!?" She asked softly. Her tone was filled with concern and her palms were drawing soothing circles on my shoulders...

"Why am I here?" I asked coldly trying to act stern and I knew my tone hurt her..

"I found you unconscious last night outside on the bench! Doctor told if I wouldn't have reached on time tou you would have been under hypothermia!" She told me in a low tone and backed off..

Her cheek was no more resting on my shoulder nor her palms..

I felt bad..

"I...I was sacred for you!" She confessed innocently and my heart jumped in my throat on her care..

But again..

Once again this wasn't right..

I closed my eyes to control myself. Masking a cold face I turned to her.

Her innocent eyes were filled with so much adorableness...

I wanted to kiss those eyes so badly but..

"So? So what Doctor?? Mar tou ni gya tha na?" I said coldly enough to break her heart again...

She gasped and opened her lips to say something but nothing came out..

"What? If I was fu*king unconscious tou you thought it was a good opportunity to share the bed with me ehh??" I said in such an idiotic tone and as expected..

Thawck...

She slapped my right cheek forcing my face to opposite side..

"This is for swearing in front of me!" She rumbled instantly and then again..

Thwack...

Second slap on my left cheek caused me to hiss loudly..

"And this is for thinking so low about me!" She again thundered and held my sweater front twisting it in her hand..

"Listen?? If you think that am dying to share a bed with you tou you are wrong! You were the one who asked me not to go!" She shouted shocking me to the core..

I stopped her myself?? 

Ufff..

"And till now I cared for you Manik! But your cheap mentality has forced me to think that I am just wasting my time! I will keep regretting one thing for my whole life and that is I loved a wrong person! You are a wrong person! From now on! I won't be the one coming after you! Tum mjy kya reject karo gay baar baar! Aj say bulky abhi say am rejecting you!" She was whisper yelling at me and her each word was piercing as a thorn in my heart..

She loved a wrong person...

I was the one who forced her to regret that...

Tears were floating in her eyes and she sniffed mercilessly wiping them off..

"This is the last time am crying for you ever! I hate you! Tum sahi kehty ho! You don't deserve me!" She finished her words by poking my chest with her fingers and next second she was out of the bed..

She slammed the door shut and I fell back on my pillow as the tears made their way down...

I hurt her once again..

____________________________

Nandini's POV..

Am done with Manik..

Am not gonna think about him and will act that I don't care for him he don't exist...

It was evening and everyone was sitting in the lounge on the carpet to have a coffee along with a little chit chat. 

Hugging my knees close to me I was sipping the coffee and Cabir was sitting beside me. He was busy in talking to his mother..

"Cabir? You told that Manik is also coming where is he? It's been long since I have met my Mano!" Cabir's Mom exclaimed and I look at her amazed..

Such a strict lady like Cabir's mother was obsessed with a heartless person like Manik? Like seriously?

Suddenly Manik came from behind he knelt on Aunty's back and palmed her eyes..

"Guess who?" He whispered lovingly in Aunty's ear and I stared at them with wide eyes..

Aunty immediately unpalmed her eyes and turned towards Manik desperately. 

"Oh my little baby!" She exclaimed loudly and hugged Manik tightly. He too hugged her back with same desperation and the scene was really an emotional one. 

Aunty was crying and I noticed wetness in Manik's eyes too.

What's happening? 

I turned to look at Cabir and he was also wiping his eyes..

Oh God koi mjy kuch btata kiun nahi hai??

Suddenly Aunty broke the hug and slapped Manik's shoulder..

"Badtmezz! How could you leave like that??" She spoke angrily still crying and Manik chuckled holding her hands in his..

"Hey! Hey Maa! Relax! You know the reason right? And you know that I love you! Forgive me? Please!" He was saying in a low voice. His voice was filled with desperation and sadness..

"Promise me! That you and Cabir will never ever leave me? I am tired of living alone!" She spoke innocently and Manik paused before looking at Cabir..

He nodded in assurance and Manik look back at Aunty..

"Okay! I promise!" He said with a smile and It made me feel pathetic..

Such a liar...

He only knew how to trick people..

Loser..

I gritted my teeth at him and he look at me. We stared at each other for few seconds before looking away..

I have had it enough. I was about to get up when suddenly the servant came running..

"Madam! The Khurana's are here!" He announced to Cabir's mother and she literally got up with a jerk. While Manik gave a deadly glare to Cabir..

"You never told that they are also coming!" He muttered and Cabir giggled..

"Tujhy khud pata hona chye! He is my Mamu! Of course he won't miss my wedding!" Cabir said with a wink and Manik let out a string of curses getting up with Cabir..

Oh God am so confused!

I didn't got up and kept sitting behind. Everyone was standing except me. Manik was in front of me and I felt as if he was hiding me..

I was busy in processing my own thoughts and solve Manik's mystery when suddenly I was forced to look up with a shout..

"Oh Manik Sweetie!" A girl's shout it was soon she threw her arms around Manik's neck and my eyes almost jumped out of the sockets..

Manik too hugged her back and tilted his head a little to look back at me..

His face was covered with awkwardness..

"Hey hey Soha! Urrmm! How are you?" Manik spoke in a cheerful tone and almost pushed Soha away..

"Am perfectly fine! You tell me? Where have you been??" She was almost shouting and her voice was causing me headache..

"Am here only!" Manik said with a small smile and Soha's next move shot fire in me as she smooched Manik's cheek with a loud popping sound..

I fisted my hands so tightly that I felt my nails pierced in my palms with that I got up with a jerk and stormed towards stairs when suddenly..

"Nandini???" An unfamiliar voice stopped me and I turned to see a guy standing looking at me with confused expressions..

Everyone in the hall was now staring at us including Manik..

"You are Nandini hai na?" He asked again this time his voice held surety but I didn't recognize him..

"I am! But who? Who are you?" I said shaking my head and he came forward this time smiling..

Undoubtedly he was handsome..

Very handsome...

But Manik was a god...

Nobody! Nobody was not even close to his perfection...

Gosh why am I even comparing them!

"Oh! Am Veer! Remember we met in the night club one year back??" He said shrugging his shoulders and reached me..

"Your lips! I want to ruin your lipstick Nandini! Am going to kiss you!" 

A vague voice echoed in my head and fu*k..

He was VEER!

"Yad aya?" He asked with a cute smile and I smiled awkwardly..

"Yeah! A little!" I said lowly..

He smiled more and held my hand in his gentle grip..

"Where did you ran away? I searched for you everywhere! I am searching for you since then!" He said softly and caressed my knuckle..

I awkwardly look around and something I saw in Manik's eyes...

Restlessness...

He was restless...

____________________________

Midnight moon has always been my fascination..

Sitting on the garden bench and staring at moon was my favorite task..

Though it's again very cold in night but I was enjoying it..

I rubbed my arms to warm them a little and I felt a warm cloth covering me from behind..

I looked back with a jerk and to see Veer standing..

"Hey beauty! Sitting alone!?" He exclaimed and sat beside me..

I too smiled back and wrapped his jacket around me more..

He was a nice person.

"I like watching midnight moon!" I spoke softly once again staring back at the moon and he chuckled..

"Ahan! Well that's interesting you know?!" He said nodding his head and I smiled..

"You think so?" I asked looking at him now and he again nodded with a serious face..

"But it's very cold! You should go to bed!" He said sweetly staring at my face and I looked down..

How would I tell him that I was scared...

I was sacred of sleeping...

What if the nightmares of Manik being dead haunt me again?

This time I won't be able to take and will be obviously went running in his arms which I didn't want .

I will never ever fall weak in front of him...

"Cinderella? What's wrong? Kahan kho jati ho? That club night? That night also you ran away! Are you ok?" He was asking with so much care that my heart once again lumped in my throat..

Once again my hand was in his gentle grip and I look at him..

His eyes were soft..

"I am scared Veer!" I blurted it out and he immediately left my hand..

"Scared of me? Am sorry I won't touch you again without your permission!" He said in an apologetic tone and I shook my head frantically..

"Am not scared of you! Am scared of my own dreams! My nightmares!" I said lowly and he sighed in relief..

"These dreams! You know Nandini! These are nothing! It's just what we think all day! You must think good and positive! I am sure it will help! Just stay happy! And you know what?" He was saying all this all the time staring at moon and I stared at his face..

"What?" I whispered and he looked at me back with a smile..

"Your smile is very pretty! You should smile more often! And myny suna hai when a pretty girl smiles tou a flower blooms!" He said sweetly and this caused me to laugh..

"You are cheesy!" I spoke still laughing and poked his shoulder to which he joined me..

"I know! I know!" He spoke loudly in a defensive tone holding his hands up in the air and I shook my head..

"But I seriously suggest you to come inside and sleep!" He said in a serious tone and I nodded..

"You go! I am coming!" I said and he nodded getting up. He turned and I calles him again. "Veer!" 

"Haan?" He spoke turning on his heels and I bite my lower lip..

"Urrm! Thanks! For everything!" I said looking down and he came closer. He bent down and placed his palms over the bench on my either sides causing my breathing to stop..

"Anytime Cinderella! I will always be on your side!" He whispered gently and touched my nose with his forefinger...

I looked down and he stood straight..

He was sweet...

"Come inside hurry!" He said before leaving and I nodded still not looking at him..

I smiled shaking my head and when he entered the main door I too got up. I slowly walked back when suddenly someone grabbed my arm and pulled me behind the tree..

"Ahhhhh!" I screamed with closed eyes and that person palmed my lips..

"Shhhh! Don't shout Doctor!" The seductive whisper in my ear sent shiver down my spine and I closed my eyes more tightly..

I refused to look at him and turned my face away gripping to Veer's jacket close to my chest..

Slowly I felt his fingers opening my fist one by one and loosening my grip on the jacket...

I still didn't open my eyes until he pushed the jacket off my shoulders. The jacket fell in our feet with a low thud sound on the snow and the cold wind made me shiver to which I hissed but soon the cold wind was blocked with another jacket..

This time I was forced to open my eyes just to see him adjusting his leather black jacket around my shoulders. He made me wear his jacket and I stared at him like a fool..

What is he??

Then after completing his task he held my that hand which Veer was holding few minutes back and caressed it gently. Not for once he made eye contact with me. Then his fingers touched my nose in a careful manner. I felt he was rubbing it..

"Manik?" That's all I was able to utter and he let go off my waist. 

We both stood in front of each other and then he bent down to pick the jacket up..

"I will return this to Veer! Go and sleep!" His voice had something which I was unable to understand and he walked back..

Wait a second!!!
