monster to majnu

chp 18

Manik took Nandu to iron table...she was continuously pleading him to stop all this...it was not her fault..but he being monster ignored all her pleading..he said

MA:now I will tell u what is the consequence of burning my favourite shirt

Nandu looked at him in disbelief ...how can a person be so cruel ..just bcz his shirt got burnt he will now burn my hand... god for a non-living thing he is doing all this with me...I m a human dammit .... things r more important for him than human .... Devil

He placed her hand on iron table...turned the iron to maximum point ...she was trying to free her hand from his strong grip but it was useless....she little delicate girl and on the other hand was hulk ...no comparison 😐😐he picked up the iron to place on her hand ..she shut her eyes tightly but nothing happened...she waited for sometime then opened her one eye slightly and got the shock of life ...monster had left her hand and iron was on the floor...she was stunned ..she checked her hand to ensure herself that nothing happened ...she was seeing her hand with popped eyes and found her hand completely fine....how can this be possible ...she looked at him flabbergasted...he was saying rather stammering ...I ca...nt do these tor..t. ures.anymore...it hurts.with this he left and went away leaving stunned Nandu behind she muttered...weird...what happened to him...she too left thanking God for saving her from monster

Mani pov

I arrived at home and got to know that that dumb girl burnt my shirt.... idiot how can she do this ...I will not leave her ...I called her and took her to iron table... meanwhile she was continuously pleading me to stop but I will teach her a lesson today ...so that she will not do it again....i was about to place iron on her hand when some flashes came into my mind....same scene...same cries but the difference is instead of Nandu there was a boy...a boy of 15 yrs ..... pleading a man to stop all this...am I going to do the same.... giving her the same pain which I went through...just bcz of one bloody shirt I was going to do this...god how can I do this.....

That flashes made him shiver at his place...his hands were trembling ..he whispered.."I can't do this...."he went to his study...he was sitting on his chair thinking about all the incident which happened few minutes back ... those flashes..he caressed the burnt mark and again went into horrible past

Flashback

Manik's step dad asked him to iron all the clothes of his mom ..step dad and his son...he was living as a prince before his father's death..but time changes everything ..now the prince was living as a servant .... actually worst than servants in his own house....he was ironing the clothes...he was hungry from morning..his stomach was growling.when it went out of his patience he went to take some food..but meanwhile iron placed near the shirt fell on shirt and bcz of this shirt got burnt ...his step dad came and saw his burnt shirt and yelled in anger

(Harsh (manik's step dad) = har

Har: manik u bloody servant where r u??

Manik went near him in fear ....

Har:who burnt my shirt

MA:wo it got burnt by mistake...I don't know how but ye ho gya

Har: u rascal it was my favourite shirt...u ruined it ...with this he hit manik's head hard on wall.... blood started flowing from his head...manik placed his hand on wound ....he was busy in caressing his wound when he got slap on his face ....it was so hard that he fell on ground ....all this was hurting him badly ...harsh pulled him up by his collar and took him to iron table.....his eyes were out of socket due to fear....he was shaking his head continuously asking him to forgive his mistake but harsh turned deaf ear to his every pleading...he placed hot iron on manik's arm.....manik felt sudden sharp burning sensation in his arm...he closed his eyes to bear the pain... pressed his lips tightly..but still tears were not in his control ...they were flowing from his eyes...
