Hey, everyone...

👇

"Nandini baby, you are very good and naive. That's why everyone tries to harm you and gets the courage to plan against you. Please be alert because your closest one will cause you the deadliest harm and you won't even realize.

You will never think that those person can harm you and I didn't take anything from Manik baba. I did all this only to save you. You don't know anything now but you will get to know everything soon. Then you will understand Manik baba is not wrong. He is trying to save you only." Ramesh told.

Nandini didn't say anything more. She picked up Nisha from school and returned home. Then directly left for her room without sharing a word with anyone. She was in her room thinking about her life.

When Nandini's parents died Nisha was only 10. Nisha has always been a mature and calm baby. But Nandini was totally opposite to her. She was too stubborn and short tempered. Her life was messy. In her messy life Manik was her shining armor. He took care of her everything. He handled her as if she was some glass doll.

But after their parents death, Nandini had to become the mature one. Now she had become the most responsible daughter. She had to take care of Nisha. Her life revolves around Nisha only now.

It was raining heavily outside. Nandini was standing in the terrace. Raindrops were touching her face. If it was some other time, she would have enjoyed it. But now she is lost in her problems that she is not getting any feelings. The return of Manik in her life has made it upside down.

He is no less than a storm for her.....

Nandini's pov
Life is unpredictable and I never believed in this till a few years back. That time if anyone had told me my life would be like this, then I would have laughed out on the matter. Because my life was not supposed to be like this. But as I said earlier life is unpredictable, it's actually happening with me. I don't know what did I ever done wrong to anyone that all this wrong is happening with me.

I am missing you a lot today, daddy. I was your little princess. You were the only one who could have handled me when no one else could. You could have understood me like no one else. I didn't need to tell you anything, you could have figured out everything by yourself. Manik was also there.

But as soon as you left me, he also went away from my life.He broke everything between us because he never wanted this relationship. I wonder whatever was there between us or the moments we shared, was all that a lie? They never meant anything to him? Was he always that heartless and I failed to recognize him.

Mumma also had so many complain about me. She used to be so worried about me. She used o say who will marry this short tempered girl? What will happen to her? When I will learn to be a little mature? How will I take care of a family when I didn't know to take care of a small thing if mine? She used to complain to you about me all the time.

Then you both were so relieved about me that Manik was there to take care of me. He used to take care of me just the way you did. Do you remember, mumma used to pamper him more than me and Manik used to tease me so much for that? He was mumma's favorite. She could never wanted to hear anything against me. Even if Manik was at fault, she used to scold me.

But I don't know how just an accident changed my life so much. You both left me and Nisha. I thought at least Manik is here with me. But he also left without giving me any explanation or question anything. And now he is back again to make my life more complicated when I was trying to balance everything.

Mumma if you were here now, then you had been so happy seeing me like this. You didn't need to worry more about me. Now I know to take care of myself and Nisha. I have become responsible. I know how to control my anger. You are happy, right, mumma? Daddy used to say time teaches everything and it actually taught me a lot.

Why my life is so complicated? I wish it would've been a little easy and normal like others. Mumma, daddy, you both should have been here with me and Nisha. A complete family. I miss you two so much.
end of Nandini's pov.

Nandini was thinking all this when some tear drops rolled down over her cheeks. She was busy in her own thoughts. She came out her zone hearing her phone ringing. She picked up the phone from bed and found the call was from Aryaman.

Nandini thought for a while whether to pick up the call or not. Then she cut the call but he again called. She avoided his call for sometime but he continued calling her without any pause. Being irritated, Nandini picked up the call. Before Nandini could say anything, Aryaman started.

"I am sorry, Nandini. I am extremely sorry for my behavior earlier the day. I shouldn't have reacted like that way in the office. I should have heard you before saying anything. But seeing you with Manik, I couldn't control myself and told all those shits. I am really sorry."

Nandini heard him without any interruption and let out a sigh inaudible to Aryaman. She knew he is gonna say these only. "Do you want to say anything more?" As he finished, Nandini asked in a plain tone.

"Are you still angry? I am really sorry, baby."

"I am not angry. I have told you before too and I am saying you again, don't call me baby or anything. I hate these cheesy stuffs. I hope you will remember it from next time." Her voice was devoid of any emotion.

"But..." Aryaman was about to say something but stopped him before that.

"I am not feeling like talking now. Bye."

Then Nandini cut the call without hearing more from Aryaman. Keeping the phone aside, Nandini lied down. While thinking about Manik and other things around her, she didn't realize when she fall asleep.

Nandini was in deep sleep when she dreamt about her daddy dear-

Ritik had come to meet her. He sat on the bed and was caressing her hairs. He told,

"Make yourself calm, my little princess. You have to be calm and aware about what you are doing. Don't take any step drastically. Think carefully before you make any decision. Don't let your emotions control you. Because sometimes they force us to make wrong decision.

You have a lot of responsibility. And also don't think everything emotionally. Think practically. Look around yourself carefully, you will get to know everything. You will get all your answer. It's not important that everyone close to you is your well wisher. I believe you. You can go through this problem. My little princess can't accept her defeat so easily. She is strong and she doesn't need anyone to fight the world. I love you little princess."

Then he kissed on Nandini's forehead.

That time only Nandini's sleep broke. She got up with a jerk and looked here and there to find Ritik but he was no where. She was breathing heavily. Soon she realized it was just a dream, he wasn't here. She let out a breath rubbing her palms over her face.

"Thank you, daddy. Thank you so much. Like always you solved my problem. You had told me the right way, daddy. I know what I have to do now. You are right your little princess won't lose the battle so easily. I am going to win this battle. I will fight anything and everything to see what's actually happening. I have to know the truth and I will find it out at any cost."- Nandini thought in mind. Her face showed her determination.

That night Nandini could not sleep anymore. In morning, she came to office early.

Precap: Some revelation...

Short? Boring? But it was one of the most important part to understand Nandini. How she feel.
