EPISODE - 50 I just found him on road last night..

NEXT DAY

SHEESH MAHAL

"HP.. Did you see Chiku anywhere?" Nani asked.

"No ma'am.. He didn't return yet I think so.." HP replied in confusion as he only cleaned Manik's room and saw that Manik wasn't there.

"Where has he gone?" Nani frowned, "Nandini.. No.. Did he went to Galaxy to stay with that woman?"

"Hello hi bye bye.. Good morning Sasuma!" Mami sat on her chair smiling.

"There's nothing good about this morning Manorama.." Nani narrowed her eyes.

"Why Nani? What happened?" Maddy also came and sat on his chair.

"Manik didn't sleep at home yesterday.. Then where has he gone? Galaxy na.. to that woman!" Nani said angrily.

"Why are you thinking too much? He's not there.. must be at MMD only.. Why would he go and stay with the woman he hates?" Maddy shrugged frowning at the ladies, always they stay worried like that thinking about the possibility of Manik to get back with Nandini, when he's 100% sure that it won't happen now.

"You're right.. He hates Nandini.." Nani convinced herself even though she was still unsure about Manik's whereabouts.

*****************************************************************************

GALAXY

NANDINI's ROOM

Nandini stroke his hair staring at his face with moist eyes, "I knew it.. I knew something is wrong with you.. What has happened to you? Why were you sleeping on road? Thank God Aman Bhaiya saw you and brought you here, otherwise something bad could happen.."

Manik was in deep sleep after crying his heart out last night. He didn't even got disturbed or even acknowledge that he wasn't at road anymore, he was at GALAXY now.

"I really don't know.. I just found him on road last night.." Nandini heard Aman talking with Maya explaining what he saw last night.

She wiped her tears and turn to them, Maya and Aman looked at her for a while, then at Manik.

"He has fever.." Nandini said concernedly.

"It was bound to happen.. he stayed whole night outside.." Aman said himself getting worried for his friend.

" Nan.. Nandini.. Nandini.." Manik mumbled in his sleep. Aman, Maya  looked at a numb Nandini who turned to him with shocked expression on their faces. Did he just call her name in his sleep?

****************************************************************************

All were waiting downstairs for Manik to wake up and come downstairs.

Manik finally came downstairs with disturbed and confused look, what the hell was he doing at GALAXY? Who took him till here?

His eyes stopped at the sight of his wife, looking so beautiful yet pale in his favorite red salwar kameez. How much he wanted to run and hug her tightly, say sorry and shower her with love that she deserves! But he's too ashamed to even do that, he can't even look at her after what he did. He avoided staring at her more and descended few more stairs walking near them.

"Let's have breakfast.." Dadi said asking them to move towards the dinning hall.

Nandini served food for everyone but when it came Manik's turn, she left it for him to serve for himself and went to her seat. Manik too served for himself without looking at her.

The hall was filled with silence, everyone ate their food silently

"What am I doing? I'm listening to my mind.. My mind only wants me to ignore Nandini and let her move on..but my heart wants me to make her forgive me.. to give her all love she deserves.." he thought to himself.

Nandini extended her hand to take jug containing juice in it, when Manik passed it to her like a gentleman.

Nandini took it from his hand with no expression on her face. Manik sighed knowing that it won't be easy to win her heart again and make her trust him the way she did earlier. It's long way to get her in his life back, now!!

"What happened last night? Aman bitwa told us that he found you on road!" Dadi asked unable to contain herself, she wanted him to eat first but she couldn't help but be worried for her grandson.

"Woh.. all of you were right.. I found out the truth about MALHOTRAs.. my so called family.." Manik said hesitantly and as well embarrassed because here everyone tried to make him understand and see his family's truth but in return he just insulted them and didn't believe in their words.

Nandini spill out her juice in shock, Dadi and Maya aunty gasped while Aman was like only now you got the truth.

"Congratulations MM.. You finally opened your eyes.." Aman said smiling sarcastically.

"Aman I'm sorry.." Manik said seeing his friend like brother very angry with him.

"It's not me you should apologize.." Aman said glancing at Nandini.

Manik stare at Nandini guiltily, Nandini's eyes turned moist remembering each mean word he threw at her and she couldn't do nothing to prove her innocence. The way he humiliated her in front of her parents. When he said she broke his trust and called her a GOLD-DIGGER who's just behind his money.

She stood up from her chair and turned to leave the hall when she felt his hand on hers, he held her back, "Comedy piece.." he called her affectionately and with an apologizing tone.

"Leave me.." she shoved his hand away angrily, and turned to him. She walked near him with angry and heavy steps, and pointed her index finger to him, "You have lost the right to call me Comedy piece too.."

Manik looked down. His guilt eating him up. He feel guilt as a mixture of sorrow, anxiety, shame, and an intense desire to make amends. He tend to dwell a lot on figuring out how to best do that, and then he give it a shot. He don’t assume he’ll be forgiven, but he hope to be. He go in knowing that forgiveness might be conditional!!

"It's good that you got to know about your family's disgusting truth but don't expect that just because you got to know that I was right and innocent in all this that you will take me back home and make me your wife again.. You have hurt me enough by humiliating me and pointing your finger at my character.. Now everything is set, you may punish your family as you feel like and move on in your life.. We don't need each other anymore!" she said, her voice laced with pain, Anger and at the same time the feeling of not getting the trust of the person whom she Love more than her own life.

Nandini went to her room sobbing. Manik clutched his fist with tears in his eyes.

"What are you waiting for? Go behind her and pacify her.." Dadi said. She don't like them like this.. she want them happy always.. she knows he committed sin and might be took long way to get forgiveness for her..

"I need to set things right in Sheesh Mahal first.." Manik said burning in anger just by thinking about his family's betrayal.

He walked towards the door wearing his sun glasses to hide his teary and red eyes from others outside. Aman followed him with smirk on his face, "It's going to be your end Malhotras!"

"I'll drive.." Aman said snatching the car keys from Manik's hand, "By the way I haven't forgiven you yet as Nandini's Bhaiya, but as Manik's friend you know that I can do anything for you!"

Manik smiled and side hugged Aman, "You can punish me the way you want.. from yours and Nandini's side also.."

"Really.. then you're fired!" Aman said raising his brows and Manik chuckled, "Done! By being jobless I will have time to woo my Comedy piece and make her forgive me!"

"Right.." Aman nodded breaking their hug and walked to his side of the car.
