Long extra notes in the end, I insist you all to read it. 

*****UNEDITED*****

---------------------

The same night in the hospital:

Nandini was asleep, in Manik's arms, Manik was awake, talking over texts with Cabir.

C: Tu theek haina?

M: Patha nai yaar, I feel so useless

C: Kya bol ra hain Manik

M: they both had to suffer so much and I wasn't there with either of them when they were in pain, sab kuch khatham ho ne ke baadh jaane se kya faaida

C: Tu gaya na Mukti ke paas and she was happy to see you and now you are with nandini, Manik khush ho ja kit u dhonon ke saath tha when they really needed you

M: Nai soch saktha yaar aisa

C: Toh kuch bhi mat soch

M: Hmm

C: What hmm?

M: Too much work at office?

C: Nope, manageable. "Mukti" is almost done, tujh se opening ke baare mein discuss karna tha

M: Abhi nai yaar

C: Acha chal, I will text you back. You take care, thoda kaam hain jaana padega

M: Okay bye!

After the call, Manik slowly got up and slept on the couch, leaving enough room on the bed for her to sleep. For the first time, may be due to the effect of medicines, she didn't get up when he moved.

"Pehli baar" he thought.

He was fiddling in the couch unable to sleep.

"Ahh! My head, feels like it's gonna break" he was having really bad head ache due to stress and he didn't even have proper sleep for two days.

------------

Matt came to the hospital to see them, next morning.

Nandini was having breakfast by then and Manik wasn't there in the room.

"Good morning" he said.

"Morning Matty" she replied having her soup.

"Where's Manik?" Matt asked.

"He just went to talk to the doctor, discharge formalities" she said.

"Okay, all set to go?" he asked.

"Yes, you know how much I hate being in a hospital" she said.

"Then you shouldn't things that end you up in a hospital" he said pretty obviously.

"Why are Manik and you blaming me for what happened? What do I do when my office catches fire?" she asked.

"The officer told me that you were the only one who got stranded on the floor, everyone else were out of the building" Matt said.

"Why am I even arguing with you?" she said and got up from the bed.

"Oh hello! Where do you think you are going?" he asked.

"To somewhere, where you can't come" she said and pointed toward the restroom with a naughty smile and went in. Meanwhile Manik was also back, after having finished the discharge formalities.
