A Story of Love N Separation
Chapter 3.
Present Strings !!
A girl sitting in the terrace garden, with her laptop on her lap.. on the bean bag ,
Hairs tied in a messy bun, bangs falling on her cheeks. Lost in some deep thoughts. .soon she started penning down those thoughts in her notepad. .uff.. Personal Diary. ..!
It's almost an year..n aisa lagta h. .it was yesterday when we met fpr the first time. We fought with each other. He was .. he was like a big big Noo for me. I hated him.. but it wasn't him.. it was the Monster. . Yeah.. a Monster .. behind whom a sweet guy... a guy with a pure heart resided. He was indeed a pure soul.. who was lost in the darkness of world. He was in no state of accepting the world. According to him... this world is full of cruel people who never miss a chance to let u down. I would've never seen this side of his.. if he wasn't that Monstrous to me... yeah... a content smile crept on her face... gradually he started to change.. he never wanted to his brighter side .. it was always darkness that his personality reflected .
Things have changed! !!! Her smile swept away n tears started welling up in her eyes... that night.. it changed everything. . M no more as positive as I used to be. .. ! N I can't even imagine of being the same girl ... ever again. One mistake! ! Just one mistake! ! It turned my life upside down. It wasn't me! ... no actually ,it wasn't only me ! He was also equally wrong... .. ! He should've listened to My part. . ! But he.. !! How could he listen to anything ?? After all, he is "THE MANIK MALHOTRA " . He can never be wrong.. !!!
It's that night !!! That one truth! !! That one brawl !! N everything Finished !!
Was my Love ,that weak ?? It couldn't help us standing together? ? We were meant to be "Together" !! We were destined to be in "Love" !!!
But now I doubt ! Were we really meant be ?? Was our Love true ?? What about those STARS n FIREFLIES? ?? Were they also an illusion? ? They signified our Love . Which was "Pure" !!
But still !! We weren't meant to be !! N a lone tear rolled down her cheeks. M not the same anymore! I can't be the same !!! That Nandini , she's no more !
It was all fake !! True Love , it doesn't exist, and it only hurts. U can't live your life.. ! It kills u every single day... u r broken into thousands of peices.. n there's no one to gather you... to pacify u.. to lend u a shoulder. Well how will anyone do that ??? When u r the only sole reason for your emptiness. U r the only one who can fight back ... but then again,u don't want to come out of your shell. M afraid. . ! I'll break again.. then I won't be able to stand.
Nandu!!!! A voice called her bringing her out of her chain of thoughts. .
Oh God! ! Abhi..plz. M not Nandini! She retorted.
Chill baby doll!! Chill ! N what's this haan ?? He said rubbing his index finger on het cheek n wiping the tears. You're crying? ? He asked.
No ..!! She quickly wiped her tears.. wo..actually!Kuch chala gayaaankh m . She tried selling him excuse.
Oh !! Really !! He wasn't ready to buy one . Look.. I really love u. U r very precious to me. I can't see you in this state. Please it really hurts. He sighed.
Hmm.. I know... ! N I love you too.. ! Please now stop all this emotional drama , haan !! U wanna make me shed few more tears ?? She saod mischievously.
What ?? Nooo... ohh God! Plz save my house, saying he held her wrist n started dragging her towards the main door. Chalo chalo !! He exclaimed as they reached the Main door.
Kahaan ?? Nandini asked curiously
Arre ... abhi baad aane ki sambhaavna hai... ! Don't u know..he said sarcastically with a small grin.
Huh ! Seriously? Nandini said making a poker face.
Haan... Seriously. Abhi replied playfully wrapping his arm around her shoulder.
Chalo now enough haan . It's late night. Late.. no actually midnight. Let's sleep .. We've to wake up early Tomorrow. Nandini added.
Hmm.. chalo..Abhi said as he started to move.
Nandini gave him a look signalling that he was still holding her.. how will she leave ?
Oh !! Yeah ! M so dumb.. sorry. . He said n left her
Hmm ! Good Night! Saying she left .. but turned back n hugged Abhi.. n haan .. plzzz don't call me that !! She added giving "it hurts" look.
Ok baba! ! I won't. Saying he kissed her forehead. Ab go n sleep , he ordered.
Yes boss !! Saying she saluted n left.

Same time . Manik's place.
Manik sitting with his laptop ,near the pool.
Finally, I want her back! I'll find you . Where ever you are. . No matter how hard it is. But I'll make you mine. U r my light. . U r my knight in the shining armour. .. U r my Star . I can't stay away from you.. U mean life to me. U drived Darkness out of my life. I was a monster, u made me a Human being. U taught me how to live .
N now .. M COMING TO GET YOU BACK ..
A content smile crept on his face ,followed by tears welling in his eyes.
I will fund you anyhow.
N he minimised the personal notes, section. N opened Google, n then Facebook. It was the only mean to connect.
Nandini Murthy, he typed in the Search section.
Damm ! Where's her id ?? It's no where !! He sighed in disbelief. She deleted her account.
He quickly took out his phone n started dialing her number , but to his bad luck. . Her number was switched off.
God !! How. . How could I forget? ? She change her number. . He realised the sad truth.
N then something clicked his mind.. n he called. . Bell ringing. .
Hello !! Chachi. .!! Manik greeted her
Hello, Manik.. Chachi replied hesitantly.
Aap kaise ho ?? He asked .
M thik hu.. Chachi replied.
Aur Rishabh? ?
Wo bhi thik hai.. ab to baat bhi karne laga hai .. Chachi informed.
Kya.. Seriously? ? Manik asked happily
Haan.. ! Sach mein.. meri Nandu kitni khush hoti !! She sighed.
Hmm. .!By the way Chachi. . Nandini kahan hai ?? Manik asked reluctantly coz he was left with no other option but her.
Pata nai .. abhi tak usne call nai kiya. Bas Amma se baat hoti hai uski .. wo bhi week m ek baar. Chachi replied sadly.
Amma ??? U mean Amms ?? Manik asked
Haan. Chachi replied.
Ok Chachi! I'll talk to you later. Manik said n cut the call.
Oh God !! Ab Amms se kaise baat karu ?? No I can't ! Manik heaved a sigh n tears rolled down his eyes. .
Ab main kaise milunga usse ?? He questioned himself helplessly. N right then he got a call from Cabir.
Hey Bro! Cabir said from the other side.
Hmm (ed) Manik coz he can't utter a word .
We've a concert yhis week! Cabir informed.
Manik gulped down the lump forming in his throat , and uttered. .Ok ! When n Where ?? Text me the details.
Ok ! Listen ,U ok na ?? Cabir asked As he was sure ... he could make it out from his voice. After all he's the main cupid .. who helped Manan a lot. He has seen him happy with her.. he has seen him messed up coz of her.. he has seen him crying for her. N now he was sure.. He's not ok.
Ye..aahh..Manik said stammering. Mjhe kya hona hai.. m fine. U chill. Acgcha sun .. will talk to u later. . M tired .. Manik said n without waiting fir his response disconnected the call.
Manik! ! Tu kabhi nai sunega.. ! Pata nai kab tak aise chalega??
Cabir sighed helplessly.
Manik received Cabir's text..
Date :10th October.
Time: 9pm
Venue: RG's , Delhi.
God!! Now this Delhi..He heaved a sigh n picked his guitar, and started singing. ...
Thinking about Nandini. . Her cute antics n her silly talks...
Baaton ko teri
Hum bhula na sake
Ho ke judaa hum
Na judaa ho sake
Dil mein hai zinda
Har ghadi tu kahi
Ho ke juda hum
Na juda ho sake...
Thinking about their official proposal.. their rain dance... The way she was lying with him on the couch.. both of them .. drenched in rain. ...
Kitni chahat hai dil mein
Tu jaane na
Kaise dil ko samjhaaye
Dil maane na
Baaton ko teri
Hum bhula na sake
Ho ke judaa hum
Na judaa ho sake
Dil mein hai zinda
Har ghadi tu kahin
Ho ke juda hum
Na juda ho sake
It was that time when there was no light.. my life was full of darkness... There was no escape. .she came in like a firefly. . My Star.. I have loved her 1000 years n will love her for 1000 more .. till eternity .. His heart prayed silently...
Meri tammanao ko ehsaas tum
Main kahi bhi rahun mere aas paas tum
Khuda jaane khuda jaane
Khuda jaane..
I can't live without you .. his heart ached as he can't find any clue which would lead to her...
Ek pal bhi tumse door ja na sake
Ho ke judaa hum na judaa ho sake
Baaton ko teri hum bhula na sake
Ho ke judaa hum na juda ho sake
He went in his balcony. . In the Hustle Bustles of the world. .. no one is there who gives a damm about him.. not even his so called mother. . But then he looked up .. in the sky. . Zillions of stars..shining bright for their moon... Like her. . His Nandini. .his Star.. who promised to shine for him always n forever.. Hamesha !!!.. But now he's standing alone.. a lone tear escaped from his eyes rolled down his cheeks. ..
Ajnabi silsila mere saath hai
Bheed mein tanhaayi ka ehsaas hai
Khuda jaane khuda jaane
Khuda jaane..
Yaadon ko teri
Hum mita na sake
Ho ke judaa hum
Na juda ho sake
Dil mein hai zinda
Har ghadi tu kahin
Ho ke juda hum
Na juda ho sake
Baaton ko teri
Hum bhula na sake
Ho ke judaa hum
Na juda ho sake
Dil mein hai zinda
Har ghadi tu kahin
Ho ke juda hum
Na juda ho sake
He sat there itself n kept staring at stars. .n soon fell asleep.
