He went near her and saw her trembling fingers.
He looked at the veil and sat beside her.
He opened her veil and that was it.
It was not ALYA.
He was shocked looking at her.
It was a girl with large doe shaped eyes, tasty lips and red cheeks
It was NANDINI❤
He looked at her and she looked at him.
She wrapped her knees in her chest and started shivering.
'Dekhiye..Mere paas mat ayiye' Nandini looked all helpless.
He was more than concerned for her as SHE was the girl HE LOVED❤
'Daro mat, Nandini' Manik touched her fingers.
'How do you know my Name?'Nandini looked all questioned.
'Long Story' Manik smiled at himself.
'Ohkay'
'Where is Alya' Manik asked.
'Ac.. Actually' she hiccuped
' First make yourself comfortablee' Manik looked all concerned.
Nandini shifted beside him and started telling the story.
"She ran away with Dhruv. He is more rich than you. Aunty and uncle made me the bride and I got married to you" Nandini sobbed.
'Without your consent?' Manik asked.
'Yes.' Nandini signed.
'But'
' They Dont care about me' 'They just want money and their daughter's happiness''They always used to beat me' Nandini didn't but why she was telling all this to HIM❤ but she felt relieved for the first very time.
'Then why were you trembling' Manik looked at him.
' You can hurt me' Nandini looked at him.
'Dont be' ' I will always be with you' Manik smiled a little and she chuckled.
'Let me tell you one secret' Manik smilingly said.
He stood up and went near the window.
Nandini followed him.
'I was never in love with Alya, Maybe thus marriage was just a sympathy.' Manik sighed.
'Then? ' Nandini placed her hand on his folded hands near his chest.
'You know, Dinabhai college, I am the trustee of that college' Manik looked at Nandini ...maybe this is the real time to tell her the truth.
'I study in that college' Nandini said.
'I fell in love with a girl there' 'And you know what is her name' Manik said.
'I want to sleep' Nandini felt some discomfort but was unable to find the reason.
She turned and started walking towards the bed.
'NANDINI' Manik said all lovingl y.
'Yes' She turned.
'Her name is NANDINI' Manik smiled at her.
