{Ch- 17} Because I Trust You

Nandini

If I say that you were that girl, then?

Splash!!

If I say that you were that girl whom I had ever loved, then?

Splash!!

And if I say that you were that girl who betrayed me and made me what I'm now, then?

Splash!!
Splashing cold water on my face I looked myself in the mirror.. My eyes red with cold cheeks and dried lips.. I tried forgetting the words but it kept ranging inside my brain.

yes Nandini, you was my Tara whom I loved.

Arghhhhhhh!! Stop it!! Stop it -stop it-stop it!!
No it can't be me.. I.. I am not that.. I couldn't be Tara..

yes Nandini, you was my Tara whom I loved.

I heard the sentence again an again which made me cover my ears with my palm shutting my eyes tightly while all could I see was flashes

With that I jerked my eyes open huffing and breathing like anything.. Was he really telling the truth? Was I his Tara? Was my flashes is the evidence of this?
Ayappaa, am I the reason behind of Manik ji's condition?
But what had I done that made him loose his sanity to this extent?

My head, its paining like anything.. I just cant take this all at once.. I-I just can't handle this.. My head is bursting like it would explode anytime soon..
I need breath.. I-I need breath..

Gripping my head I stepped out of the washroom anyhow but the pain inside my head was increasing to its limits.. Walking out of the house, I sat in the verandah leaning with the pillar..
Cool down Nandu- cool down.. You need to be strong and find out the matter.. You need to talk to him.. Yes..

Sighing a bit my eyes went up to the sky when my gaze fell on his room's window where he was standing gazing the stars..

Nandini, I know there are many hindrance in between our love but if we try then we can cross them all together.. Right the moment I am definitely going away from you but my heart is going to stay with you, always, humesha. Keep shining my love and never loose your strength because you are my northern star which shines bright amongst every stars.. Tum meri Tara ho jise mene dil-or-jaan se v jyada chaaha h.. I love you very much..

"Manik!!"

His name came out from my mouth like a sweet prayer.. The words were playing rapidly inside my ears with my eyes fixed on his features..
Am I really missing some part of my life Ayappaa? Why do I feel that they were the best chapters of my life till now? Why can't I achieve them altogether at once?
All this question were roaming inside my mind when I found his eyes capturing mine.. As his gaze went on me, we paused.. None of us had the capability of breaking the eye lock whilst in the distance between us.. We might be far but still I can read those eyes which carried sorrow and loneliness..
Was it really all my mistake that had drifted us apart?
