Manyata's POV
" Harry !!! Make a call to Niharika and fix an appointment at 10 AM for tomorrow. Tell her to be on time.
And call our make up and hairstyles expert. I want every single thing to the perfection. " Mohit said to
his assistant. Harry nodded confidently.
" Get coffee and sandwiches for us. " Mohit said again. Harry nodded and went away.
" So ?? " Mohit asked looking into my eyes.
" So what?? "
" Who were your new friends? "
" Family friends.... "
" Oh, ok... And that handsome twin of the groom? "
" What about him? " I snapped.
" Cool honey..... I was just asking... "
" What were you asking? " I said too quickly.
" Any connection with that handsome? "
" Why do you think, there is. Connection? " I asked him back.
" I felt some sparks coming off him when we were together. " He said with a smile and winked at me.
" You must have imagined them. " I said to put an end to his teasing.
" That is one thing, I am never wrong about. Sweetheart. But you looked amazing in that dress I made
for you. And it seemed, he could not take his eyes off you. "
" Mohit will you please shut up? " I glared at him.
" Why?? I am just talking to you... "
" I don't want to talk about him. Can we talk about work? "
" Are you sure, you don't want to talk about him? " he looked at me as if he was trying to read my
thoughts.
" Yes... Positively. "
" Are you sure, you are absolutely fine and ready to work?
" Yeah... That's why I am back. " I tried to look enthusiastic.
" What happened?? " He caught my hand and asked looking into my eyes.
" Nothing... I am back."
" I can see that, but something seems off. "
" Mohit... I don't want to talk about it."
" Ok fine... But I am not leaving the topic forever. "
We enjoyed our coffee and sandwiches as always.
He does not eat proper 3 time meals. I always used to fight with him and got food for him whenever we
were working together. He has always been a fussy, not one about eating. But made him eat
everything, even what he didn't like.
********
I came back home and helped bhabhi to cook Rajasthani food as we all loved it.
We prepared kurkuri bhindi, Rajasthani kadhi, lahsun ki chatni, bajre ki roti and mawa kachori.
I loved cooking with her but I missed Swati and our cooking sessions together. I was missing her and
Samar Ji both.
We all had food while bhai sa asked me about my day and I told him that I was going to start my work
again on the next day.
He called up dad and asked about his health. He even talked to dad's doctor.
" Kako sa, how could you do that?? You were diagnosed to have cancer and you didn't even tell me?
What is the use of having a nephew, who is a doctor?............ I agree I don't live in Jodhpur, but I would
have come immediately... Well, it's ok... Let it be the doctor says your body is responding to the
treatment very well. You will be absolutely fine......" Vikram Bhai said.
" How did I came to know??? Malhotras' are very good people. Sagar is my friend. I just came back
from his wedding. There I met Manu and got to know that you got her married to Sahil....... Manu is
absolutely fine. She had some work in Delhi so she is with us. Sahil had some work so he is there in
Chandigarh...... Don't worry kako sa, I am not going to let her go back to that apartment of her's. She
will stay with us till Malhotras' are back in Delhi. Come back then I will talk to you. I am angry with
you........ don't worry about all that now. Get well soon and let me know if you need anything. " Vikram
Bhai disconnected the call.
" Don't worry Manu, he is going to be absolutely fine. By chance, his doctor came for the rounds and
uncle asked him if he could talk to me. And he assured me that he will be fine. " He said and I nodded
wiping my eyes. Bhabhi hugged me and bhai sa patted me on my head and smiled.
" Now tell me how did this whole thing happen? Uncle was asking me why you were here and not with Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
them. "
" Bhai can we not talk about this?? "
" No, we will talk about it or I will go and break his jaw. "
" Nothing bhai, dad and uncle decided for us and gave us an ultimatum that we have to get married.
But we are totally opposite of each other. So we decided to go on our separate ways. "
" If you both mutually decided it, and you and Sahil had nothing between you two, why are you avoiding
the matter? I saw Sahil was tensed too. I saw the way he was looking at you. I was definitely not
nothing? Tell me or I am calling Sahil, here right away. "
" No... please don't. I will tell you. " I told him everything.
Well, not everything...
He looked very angry at Sahil. He took out his phone and dialled a number.
" Hello, Sagar?? ...... " He went to his room while talking to Sagar bhai.
I looked at Sandhya bhabhi. She just nodded and told me,
" Don't worry, Just rest assured. He is angry right now but everything would be fine. Sagar Ji will pacify
him. "
" But bhabhi... "
" Tell me Manu, do you like Sahil Ji? " bhabhi asked me.
" No bhabhi... " I said with my face downwards.
" Look into my eyes, and tell me. "
" What do I tell you bhabhi?? There are few things that I don't even want to think but they don't get out
of my mind. I will share with you, provided you promise that you will not tell bhai sa. " I said and she
nodded.
" Bhabhi I don't know, what is wrong with me. I hate him for making me feel so bad. Bhabhi he said that
I was brainless, spineless, good for nothing, a burden on my family and him too. He kind of humiliated
me. He never turned up again. I mean I would have signed those divorce papers without even thinking,
but the way he behaved and that letter he sent me, made me hate him. Mom and dad think that I am
living happily ever after with him. They don't even know that their son-in-law loves to spend his evening
in nightclubs with other women. " Sandhya bhabhi was listening very carefully.
" Did you see any difference in his behaviour? Because when we saw, I felt that he has feelings for you.
" Sandhya bhabhi said.
" Bhabhi, I saw that he got very uncomfortable when uncle was trying to tell Sagar Ji about marriage.
Then at the wedding, I saw him getting very uncomfortable while the rituals were going on. Somehow I
felt he was thinking about Manyata and feeling guilty that he did that to her. Bhabhi, I hate him... But
whenever he came closer or touched me, my heartbeat increased. I felt shudders in my body. I don't
know why I feel like that. "
"It's ok, Manu. I understand what you must have undergone. "
" No bhabhi, bhai sa loves you so much. You can't understand how I felt. I felt bad for myself. Everyone
had a very loving partner. You all looked so much in love with your spouse. While our marriage was a
sham. I don't even know If I am married or not. My husband doesn't even know the meaning of
marriage. I felt so bad that everyone had someone who loved them unconditionally. I also had feelings,
some dreams regarding my life partner. I also wanted a husband who loved me and took care of me. I
wanted him to understand my fears and dreams, I was also forced to have this marriage But bhabhi I
would have tried to be a good life partner. Bhabhi my marriage was a joke. "
" There was a time, I hated Vikram so much. But gradually he made me fall in love with him. "
" What?? You hated him?? Why?? " I was shocked to hear that.
" He was being prejudiced about me even before he met me. He also said so many bad things about
me and I was hurt like hell. I was really angry with him. No, I hated him. But gradually I started falling
for him as well. "
" Wow!! I wish someone loved me too. " I said with a long face.
" Don't think too much, but I think that Sahil Ji has feelings for you. Don't worry things will be alright. Go
and sleep now. I will go and see your bhai sa. "
She smiled and went to her room. I came back to mine.
