《Manan - Entangled》Part 23
Advertisement
On the day of the celebration, Nandini and Navya put their plan into execution after disguising themselves. Navya managed to get hold of Mukti's phone and she replaced it with a dummy. Using Mukti's phone they messaged her friends except Manik that she wouldn't be able to make it to the party since she wasn't feeling well. They responded appropriately when her friends replied. That ensured that only Mukti and Manik would be present at the hotel.
Mukti came in first. They bribed the waiter and added medicine to Mukti's drink so that she would have to use the restroom very soon. By the time Manik came in, Mukti had gone to the restroom. When Mukti went to the restroom, Navya followed her and locked her in the restroom.
Then they spiked Manik's drink. Manik was in no hurry to start the celebration, so he didn't try contacting his friends to check why they weren't there yet. Instead he was thinking of Nandini whose loss had become the reason for their celebration.
When Nandini sensed that the spiked drink had started taking effect, she went to Manik and took him with her. Though she was in disguise, Manik felt it was her so he went with her.
Manik : "Where were you? I have been trying to reach you, but you haven't been receiving my calls. I looked for you everywhere, but couldn't get in touch with you. .. How are you?"
Manik : "Why aren't you saying anything? .. Why would you after what I did to you?.. I am very very sorry Nandini. .. I became your partner with the intention of taking revenge from you, but I backed out the moment I realized that what I was doing was wrong. .. I really care for you, I wasn't pretending. .. I wasn't expecting .. I thought you didn't want to fall in love, then how..?"
Manik : "I know you won't trust me anymore, but I am saying the truth. .. My guilt is killing me. ..Will you be able to forgive me? .. It is okay even if you don't forgive me, but don't get more depressed because of what happened. This love dove doesn't mean anything, so don't spoil your life in it's name. .."
Nandini wasn't saying anything in response and he couldn't keep his eyes open any longer. She laid him on the bed and Manik fell into deep sleep. He hadn't been able to sleep peacefully from the past few days. He had tried to say everything he had in his mind which he wanted to tell her when he met her.

Nandini's eyes were fixed on his face for sometime. She knew that this would be the last time she would be seeing him.
Nandini : "I am sorry Manik. I didn't want to do this to you, but this is the only way I could think of for now."
Nandini hesitated at first, but she remembered the incident when Manik had unbuttoned his shirt in front of everyone at the orphanage and was cool about it. She unbuttoned his shirt and sent a message to Navya. Navya unlocked the door for Mukti and left a message at Mukti's table when she returned. Mukti didn't see Manik around and she had figured out that her phone was stolen, so she couldn't call him. She saw the message on the table. It read :
"A girl took the guy who was with you to room no.101 in an intoxicated state. - a well wisher."
Mukti immediately went to the room and knocked at the door. Nandini opened the door and hid herself quickly. Mukti found Manik on the bed, and looked around, but couldn't find any girl. She tried to do everything she could to wake him up, but she wasn't successful. She buttoned his shirt and made him sit. With great difficulty she managed to get him out of the room and take him home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next day morning, Manik and his friends got a message from Mukti's phone telling that she wanted to meet them immediately. Mukti got a message from the office boy telling that Manik wanted to meet her. So everyone met at the specified time. The door was locked once everyone had got inside. Mukti found her phone there.
Cabir : "Why did you ask us to meet immediately Mukti?"
Mukti : "Huh.. I didn't. I am here because Manik sent a message.. "
Before they could continue further, photos were being displayed on the screen. It showed photos of a girl's hand on a guy's face, the guy's shirt being unbuttoned, the guy's hand on the girl's shoulder and so on.
Cabir : "Who got the idea of showing such photos to us that too in the college?"
Slowly, the same photos were displayed again, but this time they were zoomed to show the entire picture. Except Mukti, the rest were surprised to see that the girl was Mukti and the guy was Manik.
Mukti : "These photos were taken yesterday. I thought Manik wanted to meet me to talk about this."

Mukti explained what had happened the previous day.
Mukti : "Who could have done this to us?"
That's when they heard Nandini's recorded voice.
Nandini : "I apologize for putting you both through this, but Mukti you weren't ready to listen and understand what I wanted to say. Going by your idea of taking revenge, I felt that probably this would help to make you understand. May be going through the same plight will help you relate to the situation. I and Harshad were in the same situation that day as you and Manik were in yesterday. The photos you saw now are similar to the ones you showed me."
Nandini continued to explain what had happened that day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nandini's roommate was talking to Samaira on the phone and Nandini overheard her. Her roommate was multitasking, so she had her phone on speaker thinking that no one was around.
Samaira : "Today, I will be successful in making him mine."
Roommate : "How are you going to succeed today when you haven't been successful all these days?"
Samaira : "I have spiked Harshad's drink. Neither Arya nor Mukti are here to save him. Soon he won't be in his senses to figure out what is happening, and I am going to take advantage of it. He is going to spend the entire night with me in a hotel room. Tomorrow morning, I will make him believe that he took advantage of me in his intoxicated state and I couldn't save myself from him. He will be left with no choice but to accept me."
Roommate : "This isn't right Samaira. You are forcing him to be with you. What about Mukti? She is your friend, then how can you do this to her?"
Samaira : "Everything is fair in love and war. I saw him and proposed first, but he rejected me and proposed Mukti who joined much later. You have no idea how I have been feeling all these days seeing them together. How can I see the person who I love with my friend for the rest of my life? I won't get a better chance than this and they both won't come to know that I planned all this. Mukti will believe me and support me. I will get to keep them both."
Nandini who was just about to enter her room, left from there immediately. She called Mukti, but her mom told her that she wasn't well and had gone to sleep. Next she dialed Arya's number to find out where the party was at. She didn't tell Arya the actual reason because there was nothing he could do immediately except getting worried for Harshad. He had left to another city the day before to meet his uncle who was sick.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By the time Nandini reached the hotel and figured out where Harshad was, Samaira had already taken him into a hotel room. Nandini rushed to the room and knocked at the door, but Samaira didn't open it. She had already started what she wanted to do without wasting any time. She had unbuttoned his shirt and pants. Nandini continued to knock and Samaira got irritated with it, so she opened the door.
Samaira : "What are you doing here?"
Nandini : "You tell me what are you up to?"
Samaira hadn't expected Nandini to come to Harshad's rescue.
Samaira : "I .. I am spending time with my friend."
Nandini : "Won't you introduce me to your friend?"
Nandini didn't wait for Samaira's response. She went into the room and found Harshad on the bed. She tried to wake him up, but she wasn't successful.
Samaira : "You can't barge into my room and interfere in my private matter. Leave from here."
Nandini : "But you can spike his drink and take advantage of him?"
Samaira : "If you don't leave, I will call the hotel security and get you out of here."
Nandini : "Go ahead and I will tell them what you are up to. Why only them I can pass on this information to your parents too."
Samaira was furious at Nandini for having foiled her plan, but she couldn't do anything, except for walking out of there in anger.
Neither could Nandini stay out of hostel all night and protect him, nor could she leave him there in Samaira's room. She sprinkled water on his face and patted him on his face. She tried everything but nothing worked. She couldn't take him out of the room in the state he was, so she buttoned his clothes. She managed to get him out of that room with great difficulty. She then got him into an auto with the hotel staff's help and dropped him at his apartment.

He became a respected leader, a shining example of what it meant to be good. But as the world ended, he had only one thought: to punish the monster that had killed the world long before the Framework ended it. Yet not even with his incredible power was he able to stand against the World Ender. His arrival in the new realty, the Infinite Realm, gives him the chance to grow stronger, to find the monster again—and make it pay.
