Nandini's pov

" How could you think of doing this to us, Nandini ? Chachi said showing me the papers. I bow my head down in shame.

" I can never imagine you could do this even after knowing.." Chacha gives me a disappointed look.

" Please don't say this. Please just at least listen to me. Please.." I requested them.

" What is left there to listen to, Nandini. Amms will be more hurt to know this Nandini.. You have hurt us. How can you do this to us ? " Chacha questioned me showing the papers. I cried looking at papers more.

" Chachi please say to Chacha at least to listen to me once.." But Chachi doesn't even look at me. I should have thought properly before doing this. They went to their room. I think I should give them. They are hurt.

I went to Rishu's room to find him painting. He looked at me and frowned. He raised his eyebrow asking me what happened ? I nodded my head in No. He gestures to me to sit beside him and I sit beside him. He asked me again what happened ?

" I couldn't get the good marks in my subject. That's why I am upset.." I lied to him as I don't want to make him worried. He starts writing something in the book and gives it to me after finishing it. Although I learned sign language to interact with him but sometimes he prefers to write.

" I know my di is best. She will definitely work hard and top the exam. Don't be sad. Give me your smile.." He shows it to me. I ruffled his hair in response. We talk for hours. He sleeps in my lap. I tucked him inside the blanket.

" I want to hear di from you, Rishu. Before I am gone.." Ayyappa at least graced me with this. I prayed to Ayyappa and left his room.

Nandini's pov ends

***** Manik's pov

Nandini came crying to me. Let's show my acting skills. I pretend I don't know what is going around ? I asked like an innocent boy what happened ? She hugged me and started crying. Arghh ! I just hate it. I have chosen this road and I have to bear it.

" What happened baby ? Why are you crying ? You know I can't see tears in your eyes.. At least for me don't cry.." Hats off to the movie I watched before pursuing her. I know these cheesy and pick up lines by watching drama and to trap her. I think I should act in movies. She doesn't even doubt me one percent.

I wiped her tears.

" Manik, Chacha and Chachi got to know about our marriage. They are very disappointed with me and left for Mangalore without even telling me and just leaving me the note. " Nandini complained to me.

" Shh.. shh.. Nandini. I am sorry because of me you have to go through this. Only if I haven't forced you, you will not have been in this state. If you want I can beg your Chacha and Chachi for forgiveness.. I can do anything for my precious baby.." I smirked at my manipulation skills.

" No no. I will try to cooed them.." She panicked.

" But Nandini I can't see you like this. We have to find a solution.." I wiped her tears.

" No, they are very angry with us. Let them cool down a little bit. I will cooed them. I know they love me very much and they don't have a choice but to accept you.." How ungrateful she is ? Just a few days ago she was chanting family and family. Now, look at her she didn't even care how much hurt they are. Such a chameleon !

" It must be that Nyonika. She doesn't want me to live in peace. What were you saying other than that she loves me bla and bla.. She wouldn't do it and hurt me, baby. You are an innocent baby. You don't know how cruel people can be, baby.." I faked my anger I thought at the end of my plan I would use my marriage card. But I thought about it later why not now. She will be dependent on every emotion with me. It will be very easy to fool her and manipulate her.

My plan worked. If she would have been in the sound mind, it would have created difficulty for me.

" Why did you not blame me for this incident..? " I asked her. Such a fool she didn't even think it was me even for a second.

" I trust you, Manik. You will never do anything to hurt me, Manik.." She replied. How innocent she is ? But it is not too early for strangers whom you have just met a few months back.

This is the only way I can tackle her and take advantage of her innocence. If she was smart enough, it would have been difficult to trap her but it would have been fun to play with her.

Somehow I made her quiet. The only thing I couldn't adopt from the dramas was how to console people. It was a difficult task for me to console her.

I asked to stay here but she denied. She said Chacha and Chachi will become more upset with her. I dropped her home and came back just now.

" Yes, sir Mr and Mrs Murthy had left for Mangalore in the morning. Mr. Rishabh is also travelling with them.." I asked my detective just for confirmation. I sent the marriage certificate via my detective yesterday.

I didn't know their reaction would be this extreme and quick. How unlucky she is ? Tch Tch Tch.. Poor girl.

I invited Fab 5 to my home for a party. The first plan finally became successful. She was so helpless just like how I was. No one there to console me. I don't feel even an ounce of guilt for what I have done to her.

She was never meant to be blamed but my grief didn't let me do so. Only if she wouldn't have come into my life.
