monster to majnu

Chp 91

Days went like this...manik started behaving normally but still he hadn't shared anything with nandini......the thoughts were still buried in his mind only.....he hadn't opened up his heart to nandini....nandini was waiting for him to share sth but everytime she tried to discuss about that he used to divert the topic but the one difference was that he had stopped getting angry about that....after getting failed many times nandini just left that to him.......she knew he would share it with her once he sort out his mind and she was waiting for that right time only......

Nandini opened her eyes at the alarm and yawned lazily as she realised that it was the time to get up........she looked at the sleeping manik and encircled her hand around his neck and kissed the tip of his nose....lazily hiding her head in his chest she laid there as such inhaling his sweet scent......manik too woke up sensing her movements and gripped her tightly......he opened his eyes feeling strange.....sth was wrong in the environment....chucking his thoughts he kissed her temple as she flashed him her beautiful Pearls.....he smiled but that smile didn't reach upto his eyes......that strange feeling was still present deep down his heart.....feeling knots in his stomach he sat on bed with an uneasy feeling.....he gazed at everything absentmindedly and found that they were mourning also.....sad over sth but what was the reason he was unable to trace it.....nandini looked at his disturbed face and held his cheek

Manik r u okay in concerned tone

Yeah snapping out of his thoughts yeah yeah m okay moving hand over his face....meanwhile the cell phone beeped manik picked up the mobile and it was msg of his manager telling him about the upcoming meetings.....manik's heart was somewhere else he closed the msg box and as he was about to place the mobile back on its place his gaze fell on date and he stopped right there......staring at the date even made him forget to breath.....gulping the lump of tears he threw the phone back on table as he got to know why his mood was spoiled from the moment he opened his eyes.......he again fell on bed trying to calm himself as his mind thought about the day and that special event..it was going to be a very hard day for manik indeed and he wasn't at all prepared for it.....robotically he got ready for office ate his breakfast a little......nandini too was busy getting ready for office so she couldn't get a hint of his sadness........kissing maniks cheek she bade bye to him as usual as she stayed rooted at the main door watching him going to the driveway.....there a driver was waiting for him.....he opened back door for manik but he stopped him and instead took car keys from him...minutes later his car disappeared from there leaving behind some dirt only.....nandini shook her head and went to pick her bag from dining hall hurriedly as she was also getting late for hospital

After roaming around the city aimlessly manik finally stopped the car at a place....turning off the engine he raised his head as he sighed.....his face was red with the patience with the control.....looking at the place in front of him he blinked his eyes to push his tears back as he gazed at the no. of graves which had loved ones of thousands burried deep under it.......which also had that one person who was manik malhotra's life......who was the reason of manik's royal time in the world.....he was the king who treated manik no less than a prince.......there was lying a person,in his presence manik never got to know about the cruel side of world....who was manik's hero....manik's world and all he experienced in his presence was a beautiful side of world....a luving family...mother's unconditional luv...true frndship....financially sound and everything he could dream for......that cruel graveyard had manik's father burried in it.......

With staggering steps he marched towards the gate of graveyard.....he looked tired....stopping at one grave he looked at it blankly and then moments later his knees touched the ground........he placed his shaking hand on the foot side of grave as if he was touching raj's feet.........tears blurred his vision as he felt his throat sore cuz of continuous effort of pushing his tears back......
