Soon it was nite tym n Nandini was pacing in her room restlessly n crying

Soon it was tym for dinner n Chachi was continously calling Nandini down for food bt seems like she have turned deaf after gvg up Chachi came to her room n started saying

Cha-Nandu kabse tuje Bula rhi ho chal Khana khane

It was then she noticed her vulnerable state n her cheeks were all wet due to crying n she became tensed n hurriedly came to her n said

Cha-Nandu kya hova tu ro kyu rhi hai bolna muje bahut Dar lag rha hai

Nandini held her hand m said cryingly

Nan-cha......Chachi......Manik........

Hearing Manik's name m her crying state Chachi got worried n said

Nan-pata nhi......

Cha-pata nhi fir kyu ro rhi hai

Nan-Chachi.....muje bahut Khrb khayal aa rhe hai Manik k liye(sniffed) muje ek baar......usse dekhna hai plzzzz......Chachi muje jaane dijiye na .....(sniffed)plzzzz

Chachi wiped her tears m said

Nan-nhi chachi jab tak ......mei Manik ko dekh nhi Leti......muje chain nhi padega

N again started crying chachi wiped her tears n said

Cha-aacha thik hai par pehle Rona chup kr aisa rondu sa chehra Lekar jayegi Manik k pass

Nandini wiped her tears n then chachi left n Nandini entered washroom quickly freshen up n changed n was waiting for Chachi's signal so that she can leave

She came down n she made a excuse that nandini is sleeping so they should quickly finish the food n sleep too

Chachi within 15 mins somehow feed chacha n made him go inside n Rishab too n signalled Nandini to leave

Nandini quickly left for Manik's place all the while crying n praying for his safety soon she reached outside his door n was thinking how to enter wen a cold breeze of wind blew n the door opened slightly n Nandini pushed a lil n the door opened easily n she got scared n mumbled to herself

Nan-yeh darwaza aisa hi khula hai aise kaise kahi Manik ko toh kuch nhi hova

N she closed the door behind properly n rushed to Manik's room sneakingly

As soon as she opened the door she soo utter darkness in his room n Nandini was getting sacred for Manik coz he does not like darkness

She closed his room door n was searching for switch she quickly got it n on the light to see a breathtaking view

Manik was lying in his bed n shivering badly while his hands were Btwn his legs

Manik's sleeping position

Seeing him shivering badly Nandini came near him n touched his forehead n immediately jerked her hand n said

Nan-Aiyyapa Iss kitna bukhar hai aur koi hai bhi nhi

She quickly closed all his windows that were open n banging loudly due to stormy wind n immediately pulled the duvet on him n was thinking abt something wen chachi called her

Cha-Nandu tu ouch gayi Manik thik hai na

Nandini started crying bitterly n said

Nan-chachi.....Manik ko bahut tez...bhukar hai

N again started crying so chachi motivated her n said

Cha-Nandu rona band kar tere rone se woh thik ho jayega kya chal  apne aasu poch Aur uske sir par  thande pani ki patti rakh dekhna abhi bhukar Utar jayega thik hai Aur tu waha reh tere chacha so Gaye hai Subha ka subhe dekhenge thik hai Aur ab rona nhi

Nan-Haan chachi

She ended the call n kept her bag n phone n rushed inside the kitchen to fetch ice water so that she can treat Manik

She was getting the required materials with the fear that wat if she is caught bt lil she dint knew that nobody is in mansion neonika is out on a trip while all the servants are in servants quaters sleeping n tonight nobody is gng to dustrub her

She quickly came with bowl of ice water n arranged for 2 strips of clothes n started soaking n placing it on Manik's forehead n treating him again n again caressing his hair n peeking his cheeks n eyes

After 15 mins Manik finally mumbled

Ma-Nandini

He was not in his sense bt his shivering had subsidised n now he was sleeping straight bt still holding his duvet

Nandini time to time was changing the strip from his head n placing other one

After another 5 mins she noticed Manik's wounded hand n the band aid was having fresh blood on it Nandini panicked n immediately took his hand kissed it n rushed to get first aid for him

She quickly opened the old band aid n saw his wound n fresh stream of tears eloped in her eyes she with a heavy heart cleaned his wound

Manik shrieked in pain a lil as he was reagaining his concious while Nandini very delicately tied the new dressing n again started changing the cold strips

Within half n hr Manik's fever was half gone n now he was again n again mumbling

Ma-Nandini Nandini

After half n hr Manik slowly opened his eyes n the first thing he saw was crying Nandini

He thought that he was dreaming so slowly lift his hand to touch her cheeks n as soon as he touched her he got to know that she is in real n he immediately stood up n hugged her stomach hiding his face in her while Nandini to hugged him back hiding him in her n both were crying bitterly

Manan's position

After like forever n getting tired of crying Manik finally lifted his head to see her while Nandini immediately kissed his forehead n again made him lay down so that she can treat him while Manik held his left hand not leaving her while Nandini silently was changing the strips n crying Manik lift his hand n wiped her tears while Nandini with her right hand cluchted his hand which was on her face n kissed his palm

After awhile Nandini moved to get up while Manik held her tightly n said

Ma-mat jao

Nandini caressed his hair n said

Nan-mei nhi ja rhi ho bas getting food for you so that you can have medicines

N stood up bt Manik again held her hand tightly n Nandini assured him through eyes that she will come quickly

She came down fearing n quickly reheated the food filled a plate for Manik n came back to him all these while Manik was crying silently

Nandini came back n placed the food tray on side n helped Manik to sit with the help of headrest n kept the plate in front of him

Manik looked at food n then her Nandini understood his action n sat comfortably n took a bite of roti filled it with veggie n took it near his lips while a lone tear escaped his eyes Nandini with other hand wiped his tear n nodded no

Then she again bobbed her head saying to have his food n he opened his mouth n Nandini feeded him the morsel n started feeding him

After 2-3 morsel Nandini again forwarded her hand to him to take a bite wen Manik held her hand n took the morsel towards her mouth n she took the bite

With these they both feed each other after finishing the food Nandini got Crocin for him n made him eat the medicine

After feeding him medicine she again helped him to lay down n started placing wet cold strip on his forhead n was loving her while Manik was just looking at her with all his love

Nandini too was only seeing him time to time by now both stopped crying bt still they were not ready to accept that in morning they will again have to part ways

After a long time staring at each other Nandini finally said

Nan-so jao Manik you need sleep

Bt Manik instantly replied

Ma-nhi if I will sleep Tum Chali jaogi

Nandini smiled at his behaviour n said

Nan-m not gng idhar hi ho thik hai Jab tak you don't get better m here so sleep

With these she bend down n gave a buzz on his forehead while Manik closed his eyes after parting away from him Manik again opened his eyes n placed his head on her lap while Nandini quietly was changing the strips n ruffling his hair so that he can sleep

After almost 1 1/2 hr Manik's fever had gone n was almost drifting to sleep

Soon he was fast asleep n as soon as he slept Nandini again started crying profusely bt keeping in not to remove her sound as Manik might wake up n was thinking

Nandini pov
Aiyyapa yeh kya din dekhna padh rha hai Manik itna bimar tha Aur koi bhi uske pass nhi hai Aur mei I can't come close to him aisa kyu ho rha hai kis galti ki itni Badi Saaza de rahe hai aap usse Aur kyu y can't it be normal for him saara pain usse hi kyu

N was again crying n caressing his face

Soon it was 6 of morning wen Manik stirred in his sleep n wen he was getting it sense he realised that Nandini was there so he opened his eyes to meet her eyes which was just starring at him

As soon as he opened his eyes Nandini smiled bt Manik noticed her red swelled eyes which showed that she cried a lot n also don't sleep while Nandini carresed his forehead n said

Nan-Tum kyu Uth Gaye abhi 6 hi baje hai

Ma-Tum soyi nhi puri Raat

Nan-neend nhi aa rhi thi Aur aayegi Bhi kaise itna handsome face Jo tha mere samne toh neend ko kaise aane do

Ma(sarcastically)-yeah ryt

Nandini understood his sarcasm bt chuckled n said

Nan-tumhe Bhuk lagi Hogi na abhi koi butler hoga nhi so I will make for you kyu ki muje pata hai wen I will go then you will not eat anything bt abhi tumhe South Indian Khana padega thoda lite woh paratha n all will be very heavy ok

All that Manik could hear was "I will go"

Manik was so lost that Nandini actually held his upper body in both her hands like a baby n made him lay down in bed n stood up on not feeling her touch Manik realised their position n immediately shouted in the lowest voice

Ma-Nandini

Hearing his voice Nandini understood his fear coz the whole nite she lived in that fear only bt she have to stay strong for them so just nodded his head n quickly came back to kitchen with the foid tray n cold water vessel back which she used last nite n quickly grabbed the neccesary ingredients for her lite breakfast n started cooking taking care to make no noise so she was placing everything very slowly

After mixing the batter n keeping it too cook Nandini quickly washed the used things n placed it back as it nobody had touched it by the time he breakfast was prepared she removed it in serving plate n a glass of juice n headed to Manik's room after confirming leaving not a single thing that might create a doubt to anyone n came back to Manik who was just laying down the way she left him bt was crying Nandini purposely said to avoid this topic

Nan-Manik Chalo Tum brush kr k aao till the time yeh breakfast will be hot enough to eat

N placed the tray at side n helped him to sit after a min she helped him to stand m take till the washroom

Since he was only brushing Nandini all the time stood behind him gave him brush applied with toothpaste n held him so that he can brush properly

After done with his neccesary cleaning they came back n Nandini helped him sit back n again started feeding him after done with breakfast Nandini checked his fever again n was satisfied that it's gone bt leaving weakness behind in him so she just placed the medicine on side table n said to him

Nan-Manik incase agar firse fever aaye toh plz take this medicine bt make sure you eat something pehle thik hai

Manik was just staring at him all the while n finally said

Ma-mat jao plz

Hearing his helpless plead Nandini started crying in guilt n helplessness n seeing her tears Manik realised the reality that they have to part ways bt Nandini's words confirmed his fear

Nan-muje Jana padega Manik I can't wait

Then she sat beside him wiped his tears kissed his forehead n said

Nan-take care of yourself I will try to come back in nite fir se tab tak plz don't work n stay in the bed plz mere liye

Manik just bobbed his head like a baby n Nandini again said

Nan-Tum sojao then only I will go

N Manik quietly closed his eyes n Nandini made him sleep

After awhile Manik slept n Nandini saw the time it was 7.30 so she quickly grabbed her bag n left before being caught m luckily no one came to know abt their nite

N soon Nandini reached home n chachi helped her to sneak in without letting chacha n Rishab know abt it
