Hearing glass breaking sounds Raj, Neonika and Nandini immediately came to his room and saw the whole room is messed up badly while Manik is shouting like a manic.

Raj:- (angrily) What is this Manik? Is this the way to behave with someone?

Manik:- (rolling eyes) Here comes my Daddy dear to teach me manners again.

Raj:- (shouted) Manik….

Raj was going to slap Manik but Neonika came in between and held his hand nodding no. Manik pushed her aside and shouted back,

Manik:- You want to hit me? Come on hit me, beat me with your belt or better send me to some mental asylum.

Neonika:- (shocked) Manik what are you saying?

Manik:- (shouted loudly) What? You all want to get rid of me right? Then come on send me to the mental asylum.

Raj:- (angrily) Manik you are crossing your limits.

Manik:- Oh really? But I don't think so because at the end of the day you will abandon me after all who wants to give to a murderer of their son?

Raj:- (shouted) Manik….

Manik:- (shouted back) That's what I am. Yes I am a murderer. I killed my own brother and trust me I don't regret a bit.

Manik turned back towards Abhi and said,

Manik:- And you Dr. Abhimanyu Thakkar if you don't want to die this soon then don't show me your face again. 

Manik pushed him towards the door and seeing this Raj slapped him hard. He was going to hit him more but Neonika stopped him and said,

Neonika:- (crying) Raj no please.

Raj:- Neonika leave me, this boy has gone too far now.

Manik:- (dangerously) If you hit me one more time trust me I will forget that you are my father. I am not that scared kitten anymore whom you used to beat and lock in the dark room for hours. I am not scared of darkness anymore, I am strong enough to take stand for myself.

There was something in his eyes that shook Raj to the core. This Manik was actually a new version for him who was roaring like a fearless lion. Raj immediately left the room with Neonika tailing behind him. This time Nandini came forward to take charge,

Nandini:- Manik what was that? How could you disrespect uncle like this?

Manik:- (huffing like a mad bull) He fucking deserve it.

Nandini:- No he don't. Manik galti sab karta ha but that doesn't mean they should be punished for the same life long. Why can't you forgive him?

Manik held her hairs in his fest, pulled her towards him. His eyes were red and stony, fire swirling in them. He growled angrily,

Manik:- You supposed to take my side Nandini? Did you forget that he tried to snatch you from me, he is still doing the same. I hate him, I just hate him.

Nandini:- (crying in pain)  Manik it's hurting, leave me.

Manik:- No first tell me you are mine, tell me that you won't leave me ever.

Abhi:- Manik leave her. See she is crying.

Manik:- (shouted) Who the hell are you to talk between us? Just get lost.

Nandini:- Ahhhh Manik you are hurting me.

Manik:- Nandini don't tease my patience. Tell me damn it.

Nandini:- (Shouted loudly) I hate you, did you hear me? I hate you.

Manik left Nandini and she ran out of the room when he stumbled back and slowly sat on the floor.

Manik:- (whispered) She also hates me. She will abandon me too. How will I live without her? I will die, I will die without her.

He pulled his own hairs in frustration. He was breathing heavily while shivering badly. This pain was unbearable for him. The fear of being abandoned by all was eating him from inside. It's not like he hates his parents and Nandini is the only person who loves him truly. Though they never said I love you to each. Their love can't be defined within those three words. They are just made for each other. How will he live without her? Manik was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't realize that when he took fest full glass pieces in his hand and squeezing them hard making his palm bleed like hell. His mental pain was too much for him to realize his physical pain. When Abhi was still there trying to open his tight fest while shouting at him but he was lost and unresponsive.

Abhi:- Manik what are you doing? Leave it.

Manik:- (whispered) She will leave me. I can't live without her, I will die.

He was repeating the same lines again and again like some mantra. Abhi knew what's going into his mind. He was having nervous breakdown that's why he already wrote the name of a medicine in a paper and sent a butler to the pharmacy. As soon as the butler brought the medicine he immediately injected it on his neck.

Manik:- (shouted in pain) Ahhhhhh……

Abhi held him in his arms rubbing his back, first he started struggling to get out of his hold but then he gave up.

Abhi:- Shhhhh everything is alright. Trust me nobody is going to leave you.

Manik:- (crying) No, I am so bad. They hate me, they will leave me. They all will leave me.

Abhi:- You are not bad Manik. Why are you thinking like that?

Manik:- They said I killed him, I killed their son. They hate me so much but trust me I never wanted to kill him.

Abhi:- Whom?

Manik:- (whispered) Pra...Pratik…..

That's it he slowly fall unconscious in his arms. Abhi pulled him up and made him lay on the bed. He opened his fest, removed glass pieces and bandaged his wounds when tears were rolling down from his eyes and he started crying even in his unconscious state taking Nandini's name,

Manik:- (whispered) Nan..Nandini! Nand..Nandini yo.. you're mine! Yo..y...mine! Ple..please don't ha...hate me! I..I will die!!!

Soon medicine started working numbing his thinking process and he went silent. Abhi took a deep breath before wiping his tears. Then he came downstairs and saw Raj sitting on the couch. Seeing him coming down he said,

Raj:- Doctor I am extremely sorry for his behavior. If you want you can leave his case, I will hire another therapist for him.

Abhi:- Mr. Malhotra I don't like to beat around the bush. So let's just come to the point. Why didn't you tell me about Pratik before? Did Manik actually killed his own brother???

*****************★*****************
Huff writing this part really very difficult for me. Manik is a mystery. Indeed he doesn't know how to control his anger and express his feelings causing him to be rude, stubborn and possessive to others.
Anyways how's the update? Did you enjoyed? Please let me know your opinions by your comments and of course don't forget to vote.
Take care
Bye
