Neyonika was sitting with Naman while Shivam was sitting alone and Nandini was sitting behind all of them alone. The flight was empty with only four of them and an old couple in first class as it was off season.

Nandini Pov

I was in the flight it's being three hours and yet I am thinking same and same thing again and again.
Why it all happened with me ?
Where was I wrong ?
Why ayyiappa why me ?
I know there is a quote which say not to ask God why me but say try me right ? But ayyiappa I am not so strong emotionally nor physically. I had thought that from next week I will start with my treatment will try to fight with what you have thrown on me but now how will I cope up after all this huh. The person with whom I wanted to stay forever he, himself is no more there in my life. Now why will I fight huh Why will I fight to live ? It's better I die peacefully than getting more hurt and cry over something which was never mine ? His ignorance and cold attitude gave me so much pain and got me on this stage that I have to fight for my life what will happen tomorrow if he sent me a divorce notice and marry Amaya. How will I deal with that ayyiappa. I can't see the person whom I loved all my life, with whom I wanted to have more kids, grow old, share why tears, happiness my everything, with someone else. How can I see him with....

She cried covering her face while her whole body shivered. She had turn so weak and pale that if someone would see her now would think she is sick from many days and will faint any movement.

She kept on crying thinking about all her past good memories, her dreadful present, and her unseen future. The endless tears were not ready to leave her eyes not even for a movement.

Neyonika twice looked behind to check on her but after seeing her condition she didn't had any courage to go and console her as what she would say afterall her this condition was only because of her stupid son. And today she only wished she never had a child which made her heart ache and bleed thinking of these hurtful words which she thought. She cruse herself nth number of time seeing Nandini condition and blame herself for all her son fault.

Nandini kept on ranting in her head that she will not start her treatment and will die, the pain what her illness will cause will be comparatively less than the one she will suffer if she live anymore.

(YES)

Until someone pulled her hand.
She looked at a small figure standing near her with worried face and watery eyes.

Naman: Mumma...I am sorry. I won't ever do that again promise. I will never ever talk to someone in that tone. Please don't cry because of me.
He said wiping Nandini tears while she stared at his face. He kissed her eyes as more tears were falling from her red tried eye which would once always twinkle with joy today was red, tried with never-ending pain.

Naman: Mumma I have being a bad boy but you're good na mumma so please don't cry for my bad behaviour. You can punish me. Whatever you will say I will do promise. If you say one month no chocolate then I won't eat any. Or only veggie than also I will listen to you. But please stop crying. I don't like to see you crying. I like to see you happy always smiling like a sunshine.
He said while gesturing Nandini with his hand near her lips how to smile.

After listening to his words and gestures Nandini couldn't control herself she took him in a bear hug and cried more while snuggling him in her shivering small frame.

No I won't die I have to live for my son. I can't leave him alone in this selfish, evily world. I won't let his innocence die so soon. I will make sure he become a better person someone whom I will always be proud of I always wished Naman becomes like Manik but today, I DON'T WANT MY SON TO BE LIKE HIS FATHER HEARTLESS AND SHAMELESS. I WILL NEVER LET NAMAN PLAY WITH SOMEONE FEELING AND WOULD NEVER LET HIM HURT ANY GIRL. HE WILL BE STRONG BUT AT THE SAME TIME DOWN TO EARTH AND NOT EGOISTIC LIKE HIS FATHER.  HE IS MY SON AND WILL BE LIKE ME. I WILL PROVE MANIK WRONG HE WILL SEE HIS SON EXACTLY LIKE HIM BUT AT THE SAME TIME SO DIFFERENT FROM HIM. I WON'T MAKE NAMAN HATE MANIK BUT AT THE SAME TIME I WON'T LET NAMAN BE LIKE HIM ALSO COLD AND HEARTLESS. AND THIS IS NANDINI PROMISE. WHATEVER TIME I HAVE I WILL MAKE SURE HE LOVE'S MANIK AND RESPECT HIM BUT FOLLOW MY STEP IN HIS LIFE AND NOT HIS.

She thought with a stern and determine look while kissing Naman entire face hugging him again with her endless tears.

Today Naman had unknowingly made Nandini realize that she can't give up after all she has always being a fighter even though people thought she was weak and timid but in real she was a disguise hero.

Manik Pov.

I rang the bell twice, thrice and many more times today each second was counting like minutes and minutes like hours. I just wanted her to be infront of me. If she open the door the first thing I will do is kiss her till she does not go breathless and then taking her in a bone crush hug even if that means snuggling her entire small soft frame into my hard steel frame I won't stop. Today Nandini I will make sure everything become right in our life by hook or crook. But for that you have to prove me right you have to stay back if you have left my world will come crashing down and I will think you didn't even for once trust me or my words and the promise which I made to you yesterday. Just for once stay back and proof me and our relationship right and strong please.
I know you are here, you won't leave without meeting me. You won't trust Mom and Dad more than me. I know you love me and trust me you are definitely staying back for my answers and today I am answerable to you not only today but forever till death doesn't separate us. Just alittle trust and I promise I will make our life back the paradise which you always wished. It's Manik Malhotra promise Mrs Manik Malhotra.
I said with a smile on my face.

While the person who I wanted to see finally open the door that's what I thought but it came out to be Jenny, I was disappointed but never mind she might be upset.

I ignored her and ran inside, the living room was empty with no trace of her, probably she might be upstairs. I made my way to our bedroom to find it completely dark.

Man: Nandini are you in ? Why are you sitting in dark.
I asked her while moving inside towards the switch board and when I turn around I found there was no one there, the entire room was empty.

Might be in balcony....NO
Bathroom.....NO
Studyroom.....NO
Naman room.....NO

Man: Nandini where are you ?
I shouted while moving downstairs to find Jenny staring at my face.

Man: Kitchen I didn't check ?
I walk towards the kitchen to find it empty too.

Man: Did she leave...No...No she can't do this ?...Nandini
I walked out and looked at Jenny who too had her eyes fix on me.

Man: Where is my wife ?
I asked her

Jenny : She isn't at home.
She said looking down.

Man: You could have told me before when I was yelling her name and looking for her around.
I asked her angrily.

Man: She might be at work
I said taking out my phone.

Jenny: No Sir she went with your parents to India.
She said while I stared at her face

NO !!!!!
