CHAPTER -4
New day, New Beginning.
It's 6.30 am . Nandini got up early as per her routine ,n went for jogging, all the while putting her earphones on n listening to all the hits of Fab5.
She returned home by 7.15am. N straight away went to washroom n jad a hot shower, as it could only relieve her tiered muscles.
After taking shower ,she changed in a denim shorts and a crop top . She sat in the balcony, on a bean bag, with her lappy ...
It's strange! ! Life changes. . N we adapt all these changes, n start living with them. Though u can never forget that time of ur life. No.. I can't forget that phase of my life. It was the most beautiful phase of my whole life. I'll live with those memories. . as reminiscing thise days.. are the onky escape 5thus darkness of my life. It's like a ray of light, illuminating my present. Yes.. my past only illuminates my present. He "Manik" ,his mere thought can only bring happiness deep inside .. Y is it ?? I want to Hate him.. but can't! !*helpless* she heaved a sigh n continued. ..
He was wrong. . That night, its the worst nightmare. The night I lost everything. I lost him.. she picked her phone n started gazing at his pic lovingly.
He was the best thing ever happened to me. That night, I decided to leave everything, as I can take everything but his anger.. he was so disappointed, those eyes.. they reflected all kind of pain.. hurt..dejected. They still haunt me coz somewhere I know I was the reason, yes I was at fault. . But not completely. So I decided to leave Mumbai, n I shifted here.
I had no one here, was all alone
The same night I bumped into a guy.. my eyes were bloodshot red n swelled coz of constant tears , which weren't ready to stop , but flow.
Hey!! Umm Sorryyy! He said gleefully as we bumped.
Only then he saw me.. ! N then my eyes. . My face has gone pale ... "Helplessness" the only thing my face reflected.
What the .. hell??? These were the only words escaped from his mouth. .. n within a jiffy, he took me in a bone crashing hug .
N I cried my heart out . I was never So vulnerable. I was always positive, but the day I realised I've lost him .. n that too forever, my heart ached.. the pain was so unbearable, that I couldn't even breathe. I hugged him back n cried as much as I can. He didn't stopped me. After crying for God knows how long ?
Bass.. Nandini. . Bass.. he rubbed my back. . Bass.. ! Stop crying baby. What happened? ?? he queried, worried about me. After almost an hr
Ab..bh...bhii... Ma...Ma..Manik.. !! Was all I could say in between my sobs .
Shhh..calm down..He said hugging me even more tighter, n constantly rubbing my back to pacify me.
He than brought me home , I didn't had energy to talk . N I constantly kept gazing at stars in the sky.. while Abhi drove me home.
Her vision got blurred ,coz her eyes were moist by now. Remembering the worst moments of her life.
I have always loved him . N now I can't even turn back . I've changed myself. M no more Nandini Murthy. She died that night. N now the only thing I know is "Niti Thakkar".
I've started working in a music library. N I'm doing course in Fashion designing. Oops , she bit her lower lip . Sorryyy I forgot to tell na..
Abhimanyu Thakkar- he's the same guy, who fell in love with Mukti. Yeah, I know he died. But that night we met at station. N since then m with him.
He owns a Fashion house here. Yeah he's a cancer patient, but now he has almost recovered. Soon he'll be fine. He gave me a new name , a new personality.
He loves me alot. N I love him too.
Oh God!! Abhi se yaad aaya .. Abhi..
I need to wake him up. Else he'll be damm late.
She closed the lappy n rushed to Abhi's room.

At Manik's place-
It's 8am. Manik got up n found himself in the balcony with his guitar. He got up.. n coz of such posture while sleeping, he had a back ache. He got up reluctantly n went to have shower.
It's gonna be a tiring week ahead. In Delhi, He cried n started packing his bags . He was done by 10am.
Breakfast! He wasn't concerned about that. He again took out his phone n called Nandini.
Again switched off! ! He sighed helplessly.
Soon his phone started ringing.
