Chapter One : For the First Time
The paparazzi was having a field day.Every news channel was trying to get the latest update on what really happened.Each trying to get past the security and barge in and reveal the next bit of information.
"The elder Indian Heiress JaiNandini Singh was causght in a carcrash this morning,the elder of the Singh heiresses was reported to be in a critical condition.An unfortunate incident.Jainandini's younger sibling and fiance are unavailable at the moment.Till further information this is Asmi for ENews!" said the reporter as she reported the hot and buzzing tragedy that had taken place this morning.
The Singh sisters are ranked to be the two of the richest heiresses,born and brought up yet sheilded from the media spotlight.Some legal order that banned any media from publishing anything until they were of the legal age of 18 and when they did th elder one being older and sensible kept a low profile while the younger one being young and carefree as they say cared a damn" and kept a scandalous record but unfortunately none of them were published.
On the other side of where this scene took place Manyata Singh entered the hospital barely getting away from the news hungert paparazzi who showed no interest in her sister's treatment or even bit of sadness or remorse over her accident but were all ready to grasp to and reveal any news they got. too bad they didnot recognise her well.
Manyata wiped away the tears that threathened to flow.She had promised herself that she'd be strong.She had promised herself that she won't let it get to her.She knew her sister would survive,she was a fighter amd afterall deep down in her heart she knew that it was true.Nandini would survive,afterall she was all that Manyata had and her sister knew that.
Every step Manyata took towards her sister's room mattered,every second mattered and every thought did.
She saw the doctors swarm by and the security tighten and then she saw him.
UdayVeer Rathod-her sister's fiance. The cold hearted billionare and heir to various multinational companies,banks,industries and god knows what else. The player who her sister had chosen to marry.
He looked pale,broken and defeated
The playfullness and smile that played in his eyes was long gone and his hair which was previously styled now resembled a mess.
"I believe we were waiting for you Miss Manyata." was all that one of the lawyers present there said as the rest of them escorted her to her sister's room. The lawyer previous she recognised as Mr.Graham.
Manyata looked at her sister.Her elder sister,her rock instead of that all she saw was her strongwilled sibling surounded by artificial life support.She looked ver to Uday who had just entered the room and now had his gaze fixed on her sister.
"Mannu," her sister whispered,attempting to speak. "Yo know Uday here.he's awesome and remember I love both of you but I'm gonna need someone to look after both of you.My irritating little sister and Uday here"
Uday could feel tears form in his eyes.
Tears that threathened to flow.
Tears,that threathened to reveal the weak,broken man he was behind this tough exterior.
He knew what Nandini wanted and he had agreed to it even though it meant living the rest of this life** with someone that he didnot want to know and trapping himself in an unwanted relationship.
Fulfilling the last wish of the girl he had fallen in love with meant the world to him.So he lifted the papers lying on the table and without a second glance he signed them and passed the over to Manyata.
"Bethrothal papers,your sister wants us to matty.If anything happens to her she wants the both of us to marry each other.Your sisters last wish.Sign them"
Manyata stared at the sister who simply nodded her head and to the man who now stood beside her who didn't even bother to look at her. And then she signed the papers infront of her - her tears soaking the sheets and whispered.
"I'm not doing this 'cause it's my sister's last wish but because I know nothing will happen to my sister and now she has a reason to win this figh 'cause i know that at the end of the day she will get me out of this arrangement by staying alive."
That was the first time Manyata was wrong,the first time Jainandini had ever lost a fight and the first time Uday had felt loss and heart break because on that fateful night Jainandini Singh had peacefully passed away in the arms of the two people she love the most whispering the words.
"I just want you'll to do one thing.Never seperate but be with each other till the end.And to each other apart from everything else just be someone to love.Just like I was to you-Someone to love."
Simple words that changed three lives-One thich was lost forever.
Phew! That was long! How was it. Constructive criticism please (:
**Why did I used "living the rest of your life" instead of "spend the rest of the life" because when you spend the rest of you life with someone you share it and while you live you just live.
NO PROOF READING DONE so please ignore the mistakes (:
