After the Breakup

2. (Truth Prevails)

Outside the police station:-

Mukti - Guys, do think we should go behind him?

Alya - I think we should go..

As she said Dhruv looked at her..

"I think we should give him a little space", Dhruv said..

"Hmm, this is right too, I'll see you guys I have some important work", Mukti said and left the place...

"I'll be going too", Cabir said and left..

"Dhruv will you drop me please", Alya asked..

"Oh, finally you remembered me, otherwise, you're busy worrying about Manik, isn't it", Dhruv said..

"Dhruv", she exclaimed shockingly...

"Yes, what else, you can't even tell anybody about us because Manik will get to know too, isn't it ", he said rudely..

"Dhurv I really can't believe this is you, he is our friend and you were most close to him, how can you..., it's my fault, I asked for your help, I'll go myself", she said angrily leaving the place..

--☆--

Mukti was in the hospital to meet Abhimanyu..

"Mukti, I don't think you should come to meet me anymore", he said..

"Why, what happened Abhimanyu", she asked worriedly..

"Because now, you can meet me on dates, at my place, on beaches, at cafe and anywhere else, like every other couple", he said and she frowned..

"Mukti, I can recover this, I'm not gonna die", he said and her eyes widened..

"What", she exclaimed with happiness and hugged him...

Tears rolled down from their eyes..

They broke the hug awkwardly when two people came inside..

"Mom, dad", Abhimanyu exclaimed..

Mukti felt more awkward as his parents saw them like this..

"And who's this girl", her mom asked..

"She is Mukti, my friend", he said..

"Hello uncle, hello aunty", she said with a smile..

"Oh friend ha", his dad teased and both of them blushed...

Meanwhile Manik's place :-

He was drinking again as Cabir entered the house..

"Manik, kya haal banake rakha hai tune apna, to hamse jhut bol rha hai, ya apne aap se", Cabir said, worrying about Manik's condition these days..

(Manik, what condition you have made of yourself, you're lying to us or yourself)

"Cabir, I'm fine, I don't need her", he said..

"When did I mention her", Cabir said and Manik closed his eyes..

"Manik ab kya problem hai, ab to sab pta chal gaya na, ye sab sirf Nyonika ka trap tha tum dono ko alag karne ke liye, isme Nandini ki galti nahi hai, why don't you forgive her now, ye tum dono ke liye acha", Cabir said..

(Manik, what's the problem now, everything is sorted now, this was just Nyonika's trap to separate you both, it wasn't Nandini's fault, why don't you forgive her now, it's good for you both)

"Ha to thik hai mana, maana ki ye sab Nyonika ka trap tha, but how, how could she fell in this trap, didn't she trust me, nahi, she trusted that Nyonika and that god damn video", Manik shouted..

(Ok I agree, I agree this was all Nyonika's trap but how, how could she fell in this trap, didn't she trust me, no, she trusted that Nyonika and that god danb video)

"Manik tu janta hai Nandini kaisi hai, she is very innocent, vo nahi janti how evil Nyonika is, it was just a misunderstanding Manik, forgive her, mujhe teri aisi halat nhi dekhi ja rhi and only she can make you fine", Cabir explained...

(Manik you know how Nandini is, she is very innocent, she doesn't know how evil Nyonika is, it was just a misunderstanding Manik, forgive her, I can't see you in this condition and only she can make you fine)

"Nahi, I can handle myself aur tum log to ho na, Fab5, uske aane se pehle bhi mai thik tha aur abhi bhi hu", Manik said..

(No, I can handle myself and you guys are there no, Fab5 was there even before she came, I was fine before she came, and I'm fine now too)

"Tu uske aane se pehle thik nahi tha Manik, you were a Monster how can you forget", Cabir said..

(You weren't before her Manik, you were a Monster how can you forget)

"Cabir just... Just leave", Manik shouted..

"I'm not leaving, until you fix this!", Cabir said and Manik remained quiet..

"Acha tell me one thing, Nandini ne bhi to tujhe maaf kar diya tha na, when you choose Dhruv over her and left her, didn't she. Because, you both love each other and zyada der ek dusre ke bina nhi reh skte, isiliye she forgave you and now it's high time you should forgive her too and stop giving pain to each other", he said...

(Ok, then me one thing, didn't Nandini forgive you, when you choose Dhruv over her,and left her, didn't she. Because you both love each other and stay away from each other for long, that's why she forgave you and now it's high time you should forget her too and stop giving pain you yourself her)

Manik was silent now, he was thinking all about what Cabir said...

"Manik tu iske bare mein ache se soch, aur kal mujhe batana ki tune kya socha..", Cabir said..

(Manik think about this properly and tell me tomorrow)

Mangalore:-

Nandini had the same condition there but the only difference was that she can't show her pain, she used to hide it behind her smile...

She used write a dairy everyday, remembering her moments with Manik, she used to go in the ground every night to stare at the fireflies which once gave her happiness and peace

Next day college:-

Mukti told everyone about Abhimanyu and all were happy for her.

Manik's behaviour was different too, he was looking very normal, maybe he was suppressing his pain too..

Cabir - Manik tune kya soche uske bare mein..

(Manik what did you think about that)

Manik - Cabir let's not talk about it...

Days passed like this, Nyonika and Mr. Khurrana were given imprisonment of 5 years and Soha was sent to Mental asylum after her treatment, her face and body was completed destroyed, anyone seeing her got scared like hell...

Cabir used to live with Navya (who was pregnant as in the show) and they were good friends. Navya used to miss Nandini...

Manik had still not taken any action for Nandini, he was trying to forget her but even he knew he couldn't...

Also, one day Alya told everyone about her relationship with Dhurv which he always wanted and they sorted out everything, all were happy for them...

Fab5 started getting more album deals after winning the Talent Hunt and were all very happy except Manik, through he pretended to be happy but he wasn't, all this success and money meant nothing to him without her.

To be continued...

Do you think Manik should forgive her? Think yourself in his place...

Manik & Nandini will meet in the next chapter..
