Hello lovelies!!

Manik's outburst ahead ? ;)

....

Nandini and Ifra were sleeping peacefully on their huge bed, but, our little babycake started waking up slowly slowly.

Last night Nandini accidentally kept her handbag beside them as she was dead tired and Ifra needed to sleep.

Ifra was all caged by Nandini, but, she slowly pushed her mamma's hand and tried to get up. Finally like after 5 minutes she succeeded in coming out of her mother's hold.

Nandini looked like a kangaroo and Ifra her joey kept in the special pouch.

After sitting on the bed she rubbed her eyes cutely making an adorable pout she was finding her minion toy but wasn't able to find as her eyelids were still heavy due to sleep.

And then suddenly she found her mother's handbad interesting, the furry keychain hanging caught her attention.
She tried to pick it up but failed, due to the heaviness of the bag, all the things from the bag fell on the bed.

This made Ifra happy, she started clapping her hands and got busy playing with her mother's things.
But one bracelet grabbed her attention, she quickly took it in her hands and was trying to wear it.
Being a little baby, Ifra she couldn't.

She started crying, how can Ifra Nandini not suceed in something ?

Nandini got up with a jerk and found Ifra sobbing.

" Ifra jaan kya hua baby, mamma paas aao "
saying this Nandini took Ifra in her arms and started rocking her.

But our babycake was not keeping calm at all, she cried more and more.

" Accha mamma ko batao kya hua, jaan bolo"
Nandini wiped Ifra's tears gently.

" Shhh.. Shh.. Baby please, stop crying "

And finally Ifra opened her little mouth to complaint about the bracelet to her mamma.

She showed Nandini the bracelet, which she had held tightly in her hands.

Nandini got shocked after seeing it, the past memories, the haunting truth, the betrayal, she made her grip around Ifra strong as if she was protecting her unintentionally.

" Ifla can't weal "
(ifra can't wear) Ifra complained.

" Oh my adora! Bas itni si baat ke liye aapne ro ro kar apni yeh halat karli "
Nandini kissed Ifra's palms.

" Ifla wantsh weal "
(ifra wants to wear)
Nandini was stunned.

" No baby ! You can't wear this, I'll get you thousands of minion's and princess' bracelets baby but not this one jaan "
Nandini explained Ifra, she didn't want Ifra to know anything related to MaNan.

After listening to her mother Ifra didn't say anything, she didn't want Princess and minion bracelets, but, the one she was holding in her hands.
Being a sweetheart daughter to her mother she showed
MaNan written on the bracelet and asked.

" Mamma "
tapping Nandini's cheeks.

" Yes mamma ka baccha "
Nandini asked lovingly.

" Whatsh thish? "
showing MaNan written on it.

N A N D I N I

Aiyappa Ifra ke haath lag gaya ye bracelet. Mai kya jawab du use. I never lie to her. Meri jaan se jhoot nahi bolti main, par abhi woh bohot choti hai apne dad ke dhoke ke bare mein jaan'ne ke liye, did i just called him, her dad?

What is wrong with you Nandini Murthy? Tum pagal ho gayi ho? No no Manik Ifra ka kuch nahi hai. Mai hu uski maa aur baap dono.

Maine ye braclet isiliye rakha hai taki jab jab isse dekhu, Manik Malhotra ka dhoka yaad aaye mujhe she said with her eyes all red ye bracelet mujhe mazboot banata hai, MaNan, jis lafz ko sunke mai muskurati thi, aaj mai issi lafz se nafrat karti hu.
Nahi the hum kabhi MaNan agar hote toh wo mujhe aise nahi chodta.

Par iss sab ka asar mai Ifra par nahi padhne dungi. Usse normal life jeene ka pura hak hai.
Ye bracelet hamesha se mere paas tha, isse dekhke wo din yaad aata hai.

Aur ye bhi yaad aata hai ki Nandini Murthy kabhi weak nahi thi. Ye mujhe strong banata hai. Par maine isse hamesha Ifra se dur rakha hai. Manik ka saaya bhi nahi padne dungi meri zindagi (Ifra) pe.

" Mamma "
Ifra tapped my cheeks again.

" Sorry jaan, ha ye bracelet na, mamma ko strong banata
hai. "
I tried to make it as understandable as i could.

" Meli talah? "
(meri tarah) she asked cutely, nodding her head up and down.

" Yes my Adora, aapki tarah , did you see, your eyes are all red, mamma ne mana kiya hai na rone se, aur aap kya kar rahe the mamma ke bag ke saath? "
saying this i smartly took the bracelet from Ifra's hand and kept it inside the drawer somehow.

" Ifla no shleepy "
( Ifra was not sleepy)
She said showing her eyes.

" Okay! Okay! Samaj gayi mamma, mere bacche ki neend tut gayi thi, aur abhi adora feedy feedy karengi "
I said opening the buttons of my nightsuit, I knew it's been hours since she had her last feed.

" Aahh "
Expressed Ifra as she wanted to talk to her me, but i knew she needed her feed right now.

" jaan, feedy toh karna padega, i know aapko mamma se baat karni hai par mamma ko bhi pata hai ki unki nanhi si jaan bhuki hai, aur jo halat aapne ki hai ro rokar uske baad toh compulsory hai feedy lena. "

I placed my hands under Ifra's head and carefully brought her till my bud , Ifra immediately started sucking, and i realized Ifra was all sweaty due to crying .

I detached one of my hands which held Ifra's tiny waist and started searching for the ac remote to increase the temperature.

But my life didn't like this gesture of her mamma dearest, she immediately looked at me with a frown, next she held my hands which were searching for remote.

" Mamma "
her chin wobbled.

I immediately stopped and saw Ifra.

" Shhh.. Shh... Mamma kahi nahi ja rahi hai, bas ac ka remote dhund rahi hai. Calm down jaan "

I tried to relax Ifra's heavy breaths.

Fetching the remote i increased the temperature, laid down on my back and again attached ifra to my bud.

This is my Ifra, giving happiness, her each and every gesture makes me happy. Her possessiveness towards me. She wants me to hold her tight every time. Mera pyaara baccha.

" Yes Mr Sinha, the deal is on " Manik Malhotra said in his usual bossy yet professional tone.

" Buddy sunna "
called an impatient Dhruv.

" You have only five days Mr Sinha "
Manik ignored Dhruv.

" buddy "
Manik showed him his hand, as a gesture for him to wait.

After getting done with his call he asked still busy surfing through netm

" I am sorry buddy "
Dhruv apologized with his head hung low.

" Sorry, sorry kis liye? "
asked Manik sarcastically.

" Wo, kal..kal ke liye "
stammered Dhruv.

" Uske liye tujhe sorry bolne ki bikul zaroorat nhi hai, pata hai kyu chuckling a bit kyuki adat ho gayi hai mujhe. Har roz tumme se koi na koi tamasha karta hai aur mujhe tumlogo ko sambhalna padta hai so chuck it, it's always been like this. "
saying this he was about to move when Navya said.

" Manik tum dost ho humare, aur ek dost apne dusre dost ke saath har pareshani me khada rehta hai "
Navya thought she had a say in this.

Manik curled his fist with eyes all red and walked till Navya.

Tightening his jaws.

" tch tch tch Navya, ab tum mujhe sikhaogi dosti nibhana, jisne khud kabhi apni dosti nahi nibhayi, yaad haina wo din, Don't push me to be the monster i was, don't you remember your first encounter yaad karna chahti ho? "
Manik had enough of their bullshits.

" Manik tu Navya se aise baat nahi kar sakta "
Mukti intervened.

" Tumlog jo chahe wo kar sakte ho, Bitch, Slut, Golddigger, commoner bohot acche words hai, kyu Mukti? "
Manik asked with a bitter smile on his face.

" Manik Navya meri wife hai, please bhai "
Cabir tried to handle the matter.

" Haan wife hai Right "
said Manik sarcastically with a slight chuckle.

" Manik wo abhi humare zindagi ka hissa hai, calm down please "
Mukti said, as if she was giving Manik a reality check.

" Slow claps to the whole fab4 jo Navya ko apni zindagi ka hissa bana sakte hai, par meri Nandini ko nahi, har baar tum sabka usne saath diya.

Sabki madat karti thi wo par kya mila usse? Uske Manik ne usse dhoka de diya. Paglon ki tarah dhunda maine usse kahi nahi mili par, kya kya nahi kaha tumlogo ne usse aur wo bas chup chaap sunti rahi.

Bas meri aakhon me dekh rahi thi. Bhale hi uss din ko bohot saal ho gaye, par uski dard bhari aakhein aaj bhi mujhe yaad aati hai. Kyu itni partiality? Kyu ?

Navya ko tumlog apna sakte ho par Nandini ko nhi.
Uske gharwale, uski Amms wo toh hasna hi bhul gayi hai.
Unlogo ko mere naam se bhi ghin aati hai, uska bhai Rishab wo tadapta hai apni behen ke liye.

Par wo nahi hai yaha, iss duniya me akeli ladki ka rehna kitna dangerous hai pata haina? Pata nahi kaisi hogi wo. Zinda bhi ya phir mar,
he didn't have the guts to complete the sentence
agar wo mujhe bhul gayi toh?"

He held cabir's shoulder and asked

" Bol na Cabir agar wo mujhe bhul gayi toh? Mai kya karuga? Mai toh mar hi jauga. Kyun kiya tumlogo ne aisa? Kash wo mujh jaise monster se pyaar hi nahi karti. Itni takleef se bach jaati. Mai toh hamesha se akela hi tha.
Meri sagi maa ne mujhe kabhi pyaar nahi diya.
Par wo toh Murthy's ki jaan thi

Meri jaan thi.

Chali gayi mujhe akela chod kar. "

......
