"Wish I could, I could've said goodbyeI would've said what I wanted toMaybe even cried for youIf I knew it would be the last timeI would've broken my heart in two."Nandini's voice was dripping with longing pleas for love as she sang these lines and completed the song looking down. Her voice was screaming, "Please, Manik, love me once. Please love me, hold me as yours just once. I will be blessed with your single touch, my burning heart will relieve."But Manik didn't care.

Nandini whispered in a trembling voice. Her eyes didn't leave Manik's even for a moment as if he would vanish if she looked away. Manik looked at Nandini from head to toe once again.

So, she was alone at home, waiting for Manik to return. She was almost done with her work. As soon as she turned off the flame, the doorbell rang. While wiping her hands, she knew it was Manik as it was already the time of his arrival. Nandini went to open the door with a bright smile. Though Manik was dead tired still he smiled, seeing her. He couldn't deny, he felt better seeing her smiling face. "Good evening, baby." Manik walked inside after pecking on Nandini's forehead. He was stunned to see her in the night dress. "Good evening.

Days were passing in a flow, so was Manik and Nandini's relationship. They were happy in their own little world. It was like other usual days. Nandini's college was closed due to winter vacation. Though Nandini had vacation, Manik was very busy with some projects, so he failed to take out time for her. But he was going to submit the project today, then he would be free. She was alone at home while her parents were out at work, so she gave leave to the butlers as Manik promised her to be back by 1. She didn't want anyone to disturb them when they spent time together after so long. Once the butlers left, Nandini decided to cook the lunch for themselves. She could have asked the butlers to make it before leaving but she wanted to do it. After cleaning her room, she started her work to prepare lunch. Manik entered the house exactly at 1, he found the hall empty. So, he walked upstairs directly. He freshened up and changed into casuals. When he came down again, he heard some sound from

"Nandini, go and check if Manik will join us for dinner tonight. Your dad won't be home tonight." Mom instructed me while tasting the dish she was making. It's been a few days since we were back from our flat as the week was over and my parents were returning. I don't know why but it hurt a lot when I was stepping out of the flat. The entire week was no less than a dream to me. It was only me and Manik there. The way Manik planned surprises for me, all these felt to be a dream. I felt I was living my dream. I always dreamt of having my own house with Manik and me and our babies. The whole week I couldn't think of anything else which made me want to live there forever. I didn't have the heart to return but I didn't have any other options. Maybe I became greedy after spending so much time with Manik in the last few days. Because I didn't like staying away from Manik anymore, I only felt like running to him and being in his arms. In short, I wanted to be around him the way I was but it
