After creating this mess myself how can i even thought that something would help me to amend all this. Whatever i have been in my past is messing my future more and more. What's the profit of being manik malhotra when i can't even save my love, my nandini. She was been in the relationship with me but i have given her pain so was she bearing in past and now when i know which way leads to our happiness than she have chosen a way full of Thorn. Harshad and alia have explain me what kind of a person he is. Felt really disgusting, disgusting as same as i felt about myself when i insult nandini for nothing. This time i'm in our guest room which chacha ji had appoint us to stay. Kabir, me, dhruv and harshad sharing a room. Climate is very rainy today as cool wind is blowing everywhere. Right now i am waiting for harshad as he want to go to terrace to feel the cold air but what i saw made me frown. Harshad was coming in jett speed and he just came and try to utter something but because of his heavy breathings i couldn't get anything. So i just poured a glass of water for him and gave him.

" Manik manik we have to do something very fast mami ji again started her conspiracy. She told nandini that you came to marry alia. " Harshad told me while sipping the water and my calmness just flew away.

" Whattttttttttttttt" Kabir came from behind and he looked shocked. "Which kind of guardians nandini have. We came to take her not alia. Did alia knew this. " Harshad nod in no. I thought and my lips curved into smirk and i look at harshad a kabir.

" Manik bro whenever you gave us this smile you made someone's life hell. What's running in your brain now. " Kabir said and i look at harshad this time.

" I am not any fool who just eat what is served, it's my life and i'll only marry nandini because she is my soulmate and let that lady thinks whatever she wants to think. I think we can take some benefit of her this little stupid dream. " I said in plain tone but they seem not understanding anything.

" Manik so you want mamiji to do some planning against nandini again." Harshad seem so tensed.

" I am manik malhotra and you know why i am so impressed by myself * they raised their eyebrows and i laugh* i never got emotional by any emotional drama. I know sometimes because of this i faced problems but mostly and principally i just get benefit because of my this behaviour. " I said and smirked and they nodded affirmatively.

" If you done praising yourself mr self obsessed then elaborate please." Kabir said and i laughed on his comment.

" See as you can see what her chachi is thinking is not which we are here for but i think her thought is not that bad. * they got shocked and i smirked* i mean i will ask alia to help me in this. When nandini will realize that she can't see me with someone as just like me then she'll come to me and then that raghav and her chachi won't be able to plan some conspiracy. " I explained and they just hugged me.

" Superbbb plan " They both exclaimed happily and i just went to see my nandini at the terrace. She was looking at the stars blankly. I went near her while maintaining enough distance.

" So finally you have finally listen to your heart nandini. " I said and she look at me blankly.

" Yes, i think he is the best and always keep me happy. " She said sternly that pained my heart but no problem i know why you try to be like this.

" Oh wishing you happy married life nandini. " I said and she try to hide her tears while maintaining a stern face.

" Wish you a happy married life to you too....................... With " She said and turn around.

Why why why!!!!!!!!!!! Why only my nandini has to bear all the pain. I came here to ease her all the pain. I want to say her that i love you very very much but instead i am hurting her but i have to as if i don't then she will never forgive me and even married that raghav for the sake of her chachi. I just hate that lady.Sometimes we had to take some harsh decisions for our loveone's happiness. Manik don't lost your mind in her painful tears. Don't sink again in the deep ocean of love. If you want her to be happy then just shut up. Firstly i just came here to asked forgiveness and now my 2nd agenda is to break her marriage with that bastard as he don't deserve her. I know i was also having the same agenda ( to marry her.) but now i am going to give her time, to think to search where her happiness lays. After breaking her marriage i will go back to give her some time.

" Wow does it not sounds good to you nandini manik & alia and alia & manik. " I said in dangerous tone gritting my teeth and she just nodded still turning around.

Nandini just turn to go but manik spin her around while holding her wrist. Her hairs covers her teary face due to spinning but manik very gently pushed them behind and look at her face.

To my surprise nandini didn't made any attempts to get out of my grip instead she just lays her head on my heart and i gently wrap my arms around her. My shirt is soaking her silent tears i can feel her pain because before some minutes i just faced it but her head on my heart is giving me unexplainable pleasure. I creased her hairs and she opened her eyes and pushed me making some distance between us.

" So........... Sorry i didn't meant to do that. " She said and i smile," Nandini don't even try to thought of convincing me to marry alia and yes i came here for you. Just let your chachi thinks whatever she wants." I said looking at her and she become shocked.

" You...... You............... "She just can't believe what she heard from her and i rolled my eyes on her.

" You can't get me now. Aap hame kho chuke hain!! Ab hamari shaadi kisi aur se hone wali hain, ye aapke aur hamare dono ke liye achcha hoga if we maintain some distance from each other. " Nandini said and manik just look at her.

" I hurted my love and i am here to pay any price but i can't see you marrying a bastard. I am here to break your marriage so eventually we will be together and if not then also i am not gonna let you sacrifice your happiness. Can't you take stand for yourself against your chachi. She just need your property so she just using you. " I made her understand and she just looks down tears were streaming from her eyes. I must be a selfish to do all this but i can't see my girls suffering in this mess alone. I'll destroy this raghav i have enough powers to make any person or a business man bend in front of me so i am 200% sure this raghav must be insecure about me. thought he is right on his place i just came here to do the correct.

" She will never let you be happy. That raghav will make your life hell. Please nandini just take a stand for yourself please. " I yelled on her and she blankly stare on my face.

" Hurt, betrayal, pain*she laughed painfully* they are the most favorite words of my life which my destiny chooses for me. And mr manik malhotra from when you started to care this much about me i am toh a middle class girl na who loves to made boyfriends!!!! Oh am so so sorry!!!! Not boyfriends but rich boyfriends. By seeing nyonika ma'am with uncle i already assumed that they are together and all of you come to know about truth and i just forgive you knowing you each and every situation and flaw i want your trust that time which you failed in showing and for me trust is everything in a relationship so there is nothing between us to sort out so don't think about me too much as i am getting married to another man. " Nandini said right i tried to not to break down in front of her but she turn and strode away from me not looking back. Not for once even.

Manik retired to his room and found a glass full of milk there. He just made a face because he just hate milk but found nyonika and viraj there talking with his friends.

" Knowing all the situations i just want to say that we have to be careful with shikha ji. She is the only one who is gonna made problem. " Nyonika said and manik just sat near her.

" Mom why are you giving her this much respect ha. You know how to handle this kind of matters then why are you taking tension. You had even manage more worst case than this. " Manik laid on nyonika laps.

" Yes i know but that time i had taken decisions as a strict principal but this time it's about your life. Just a little wrong influence from our side and that lady will ruin your life because it's upto them to whom they wanted to make nandini marry. " Nyonika crease manik's hairs and manik felt motherly love

" My beautiful family is here with me do i deserved it. " Manik said with closed eyes but his eyes snapped open with yucky face 😐 as he left milk's smell near his nose.

" No kabir!!! Hell no i am not gonna drink this. " Manik get up and kabir came forward with milk glass.

" Manik we came here to fight. Just stop sulking like a kid and drink this. " Mukti said and take it near his lips and he turn his face.

Next day manik woke up and look at his friends who were sleeping peacefully. He just took a towel and went inside the washroom after washing his face and teeth he just went out only to meet by alia. She smile at him and wished him good morning he just nodded and asked her where he can exercise. Alia told him that he can go to terrace and he went there. Alia went inside and found nyonika and mukti helping nandini. She just went there and help them. Shikha came with 2 bucket of clothes and ordered nandini to go upstairs and spread the clothes on wires. Nandini nodded and alia just help nyonika and mukti giving them assuring smile. They smiled back.

" Don't worry manik jiju is upstairs so they could talk alone with each other. " Alia said in nyonika's ear and she just kiss her forehead.

Shikha saw this and smiled and said, " Tell me alia what you have prepared for breakfast. "

" Did you forget mummy, breakfast lunch and dinner didi only prepare. She doesn't let me do any work." Alia said frowning knowing shikha knew everything. After hearing alia nyonika and mukti look at shikha and she just laugh nervously.

" Vo my alia is too good. She love nandini so much na that's why she just keep praising her but she also know everything. " She said and she went out and nyonika and mukti signed. mukti just pick the tray of tea and went out.

Nandini after picking the heavy bucket Climbed the stairs and reached terrace. She just wipe her sweat from forehead and started to spread the clothes on the wire. After finishing that she just raised her eyelashes to see the view but got shocked because so many girls were on their roofs and just gasping and drooling over something. When nandini follow their gaze she found manik shirtless doing pushups. Sweat beads were just flowing from his hairs and he was looking like a dream. Nandini felt suddenly hot very very hot. She just breathe hard and went near him.

" What are you doing here?? " She asked trying to be a little stern but suddenly felt herself nervous when his brown orbs meet her black once.

He just got up from the floor and look at her red face as for the first time nandini saw him shirtless. He was totally drenched with sweat so he just took his water bottle and poured it on himself.

" Ohh nandini don't you know what am i doing?? *raising eyesbrows* so let me tell you i was doing my morning workout. " Manik said in playful tone and nandini look at him.

" Like this.......... " Nandini said looking down pointing towards his naked upper body and manik look at her. " Like whatt. "

" Bina kapdo ke........... Dekhiye everyone is looking at you as if you are a served treat before them. " Nandini stammer and manik laughed.

" Ohhh jealous..................
