Chapter 10 - His Call
When Nandini went back to the room she saw Sanchita was already half packed her beg. She didn't looked at her but still folding cloths on bed. Nandini sighed inwardly. What she did today was a insane thing. She really wanted to see stop all this but whenever she saw him, she couldn't. And even after consoling like thousand time she still move towards him like a crazy one.
Slowly she walk towards her bed and sit down. She can clearly see that Sanchita is still angry and ignoring her. And Nandini don't feel good about it.
"Sanchita I know you are angry with me. And I also know what I have done is something a sane one will never do. But I am still trying to fight this urge and I am still trying to fight the emotions inside me. Even after knowing how much it is hurting me I am still unable to stop all this. I ...I don't know what to do" then she suddenly break down and started to sob cover her face.
Sanchita who was ignoring her suddenly stopped her work and gazed at Nandini. She felt hurt seeing her best friend like this. She really don't understand why? Why her friend is so attracted to that man who is enjoying hurting her. Sanchita believe that Manik was not a blind that he couldn't sense Nandini's trouble. But still he is ignoring her and her pain causing her to drive into a endless emotional ride.
She couldn't stand anymore so she walk towards Nandini and hugged her "it's okay don't cry like that"
When Nandini felt her hug she cried even more. After sometime she finally stopped and Sanchita sighed.
"I have tried so much to make you understand but I really don't think it's possible now. Nandini I can see you have driven into such state where you really can't let him go no matter what" Sanchita shook her head "I won't come between your decision but as your best friend I will never wish to see you getting hurt again and again. And please don't lose yourself while persuading him" then she get up "it's already vacation from tomorrow. So go home and relax yourself a bit. We will meet after the vacation" then she walk towards her bed and started to pack her beg again.
Later that night after having dinner Nandini laid on bed staring at the ceiling. She couldn't sleep even if she wanted to. Those eyes of him flashed in her mind. She sighed again. How come her life turned into like this? At first she used to laugh at those who behaved like that but at that time she never imagined herself in their place. And now that she is experiencing the same thing which she used to mock she couldn't help but feel sad. Now can she laugh at her situation?
She thought about it then turned around changing the sleeping position. She closed her eyes trying to catch sleep. She will be leaving for home and she has already booked the flight. Before leaving she really wanted to meet him and talk to him but seeing him ignoring her it hurt her. Sighing again she tried to force herself to sleep. Just as she was about to fell asleep her phone vibrated. Nandini frowned. Who can call her at this time? She opened her eyes and gazed at the phone then immediately her eyes widened with shock. The familiar caller id name flashing on the screen.
Her body jerked up in sitting position and she grabbed the phone not believing in her own eyes. He called. He finally called her. She really could not believe it. She was trying to call him these days but he never picked it up though the ring was never cut in middle. It rang until the computarized voice informed her the person was unavailable to take the call and try agai later. But today he called her by himself. Suddenly Nandini felt delight in her heart. She couldn't wait anymore as she answers the call.
"Hello"
"You were crying today?" That was what he asked.
Nandini felt surprised. Did he really noticed her face? Though she cried silently even Sanchita don't know about it then how come he know about her crying?
"I...." Nandini bite her lips as try to explain.
"Yes or no?" He asked again.
"Couldn't you tell that by yourself?" Nandini asked back. Since he could see it then was there any point to ask her this. Even if he don't have feelings for her but at least he could see her true intentions and sincerity.
"I was distressed all these days. You know it clearly don't you but you stayed silent. Do you love to watch me suffering in pain?" Her voice chocked "I have confessed my true feelings and if you think I was joking then you are imagining things" she said venting her all anger in words. Fir such a long time he didn't cared but today he is asking it now like it is a most casual thing?
Manik didn't replied yet didn't hang up. While after venting the anger Nandini felt light. She was happy that he finally took the initiative to call her after these hard days but she also don't want him to think that she was curiously waiting for it.
After sometime Manik replied "so it become my fault? What you suffered was your own fault. Why are you blaming me like that?"
Nandini's happy face suddenly dropped. His tone was somehow hard and rough. There's no gentleness in it.
"What are you saying?" She asked but her voice alomost faded like whisperer.
"You don't understand? Are you a kid that I need to explain every fucking details so that you can understand. Really Nandini? are we really doing this childish things now? I have already told you my side but still you can't understand it? How long you plan to bother me like that? Do you think crying behind my back or making yourself look like so pitiful before everyone will make things good? Or you think that looking at your pitiful situation I will change my decision? Nandini let me you- wake up from your fairytale and try to see the reality. I don't love you not will ever love you. So it's better if you accept the truth and stop making yourself embarrass. Nothing will change no matter what you do. So I think it's better if you understand it clearly" then he hanged up.
Nandini sit on bed like statue. She couldn't process what he just said. He was calling her stupid nd insane. How come that gentle voice become so harsh and insulting? She never noticed when he started to change. Most of the time they only used to chitchat on phone. But she fell for him,the moment she saw him fir the first time. But her love has questioned her today. She tried to do anything to make him see that how much she cared and love him. But at the end he couldn't but now he accusing her for being childish and don't have any sense. Is he the real person she has fallen? How come a person become so blind that he refused to see the things she is trying to have.
But still for him it was nothing but a joke. Tears started to fell on her cheeks. She couldn't sob loudly as Sanchita was still sleeping on other bed. Clutching the phone she hold it tightly she cried out silent. She felt all the happiness has turned into ashes and she couldn't do anything but fell broken inside.
The only thing that screaming inside her mind was WHY?
