Chapter 8:
*Nandu's POV*
"So he went to the club?"Navya says.
"Yeah," I laugh as I'm washing the dye off his shirt.
"You don't think he'll drink like that last time?" she says...
"I don't think so,I mean he promised me, remember?"I say, attempting to reassure her...
"That time? It was when you guys were together, that was two years ago.
HE HAS BEEN A FREE MAN FOR TWO YEARS.
God knows what happened to that boy during that time!" she protsts..
"If anything I feel that he had matured within those two years Navuu," I say, even though she is probably right,
"Say whats with you and cabir?"
"He is taking me out tonight" she says with a smile, they really hit it off,
"Actually I'm gonna head back to my place to get ready, bye!"
"Bye" I hear a door close behind me.
I ended up over washing the shirt, making it look faded.
I ended up really like how it turned out, I cut into a muscle tee, it was cute. I make tea and decide to go on tumblr for a good two hours of my night before I got a text from varun...
Fr: varun- Come now, Mnk is out of it...Oh god, he did drink
To: Var- He did drink, didn't he? On my way.
I put on some slippers and get into his car car. Well, I had all my trust in that boy, Navya was right. It started to pour heavily, I could care less about the stupid rain, all that I knew at that point is to save Manik.. Last time he drank he went to the hospital. I finally arrive at the casino. I push my way through the heavy doors and look for manik..
"Manik!!!" I yell in hopes that he'd hear.
"Nandu!" I hear a faint voice in my left ear, it wasn't Mnk though..
"Nandu!!! OVER HERE!" I follow the sound of the voice to see Arymn with mnk...
I run towards mnk, "Are you ok?
"He looks at me and says, "May be you over here can take a ride to my place" He smirks while weakly holding up a $100 dollar bill.
I was astonished...
"Manik!" I say, "I am not a hooker.
"I turn to varun and Arymn ,"Carry him to the backseat of his van, please?"
they nod...
"Varun.. drive it to our place?"
He nods as well..
Varun and Arymn put him in the back seat of his car, I sit there as well, resting his head on my thighs. Arymn sits in the drivers seat, Varun in the passenger's...
"This dude," I say sarcastically.
"This dude?"Arymn says,"You mean your ex?"
Manik told them about us dating, damnit...
"He told you his life story?" I say "Yeah, he said you broke up with him" Varun says.
"He cheated on me, its the past though, so I am okay." I say stroking Manik's hair ,trying to have him fall asleep.
"Oh," he says, and by that time we were at our house.
They carry him into the house and leave. I grab the saltine crackers from the cabinet.
"Eat these," I say, force feeding him. I sit near him, when he lays on my lap.
Oh god, I hope he doesn't throw up on me. I just want him to be okay. All these thought bombard my mind as I drift to sleep...
I wake up to see Mnk still sleeping on my lap. I run myfingers through his hair, hoping in some magical way that it will reduce his headache he is about to have.
I carefully lift his head up to slowly leave the couch placing a pillow where I sit...
I go to the kitchen and make some coffee and toast. I head back to the living room to wake him...
Wait should I wake him up? I put the coffee and toast on the coffee table and sit in the recliner. I grab the remote to the flatscreen and flip the channels to Cartoon Network... Tom &Jerry was on. I loved that show as a child as sexist as it was, I liked it. Manik ended up waking about 15 minutes into the show.
I walk towards him.
"Morning," I say,in my babysitter voice, I used it to calm children down, "How are you doing?"
"My head hurts,I feel like vomiting, I- I drank to much didn't I?"
"Yeah, you thought I was a hooker," I say rubbing his forehead, "here sit up and drink the coffee...
"He drinks the coffee and says,"Did I really? I haven't drank in a year and a half."
He broke my promise in half a year. Oh god. I guess it was only once.. "Eat your breakfast," I say ,It'll lessen your headache."
He eats the toast and drinks the coffee, "Look whats on! Tom & Jerry!" He sits up all the way and moves over and pats the seat next to him.
"Come here!" he says."What happened to your hangover?" I question...
"I still feel like crap, but I miss watching old cartoons." he says.
I sit near him and watch. Maybe it was the old cartoons but a certain kind of happy came over me, and maybe I liked it...
