LET IT GO!!!!!
Awake, Nandini was wide awake, staring at her cupboard with blood shot red eyes. It had been hours since she was trying to sleep but sleep wasn't coming to her. She had the perfect plan, all she had to do was slowly get up without making any noise, walk towards the cupboard with soft steps and open the second shelf. There in a white was her life, her everything...her happiness. It was just a matter of seconds, all she had to do was take that syringe and inject herself with it and the restless would go. Just one dose and she could sleep, she could feel happy. She started at the cupboard without a blink, evaluating her chances and waiting for the perfect chance. There, she got one but her inner angels stopped her, she just couldn't do it. What if Manik got to know about it? He will be hurt! But Manik was asleep, he wouldn't get to know about this and Nandini could stealthily throw the used syringe the next day without him noticing it. Yes!!! This was that she had to do, thats all. Nandini didnt move a bit, then slowly she got up and reached the cupboard to reach the shelf, but just when she was going to get it out, a strong heavy hand wrapped around her slight stomach, right over her baby bump. She fluttered her eyes several times to understand what just happened, she had almost reached the cupboard then how did she reach her bed? She sighed, it was her hallucinations, something that always happened when she felt the urge to induce that substance into her body. She slightly kept her left hand on her husband's which was right over her baby bump. BABY BUMP!!!! How could she be so selfish, she just forgot about her pregnancy. What would have happened had she really induced that into her. How could she forget what the doctor had told her, one, just one intake was just enough to make her child naturally drug addicted. She closed her eyes in shame and a lone tear escaped her eye. Nandini was trying hard to fight the rising tempation within her but it seemed as if her body was just not ready to give in. The horrible scratching came up. It was irritating her and the only way to stop it was to consume that substance which had made her life a living hell. But no!!!! she wasnt ready to give in, it was about her child's future, she would never play with it. Nandini simply tried to get over it, but when the feeling got further intense she got up with a jerk scratching her neck and rubbing her chest for better oxygen intake. She desperately needed the substance now or she would die out of suffocation. Nandini was coughing vigorously now and tears freely escaped her red sunken in eyes. The black circles beneath her eyes just exposed her vulnerability. Manik woke up due the sudden coughing sound and looked at his distress wife. He patted her back to make her feel okay but nothing really happened. " Nandini here take some water, it will make you feel better." Manik handed her the glass but she simply threw that away. " No Manik..i ..i need my drugs...i .really need them otherwise..i will die." Nandini pleaded Manik and tried to get off the bed to get her drugs but Manik held her hands and didnt let her go," No Nandini you cant. Have you forgotten what the doctor told you, you can risk our child's future." Manik tried to reason out with his stubborn wife who replied with a disgustful scoul," Baby, baby, bay, i am just fed up of this baby. What about me? Do you even love me...i will die if i dont have it now." She replied in disgust while Manik tried hard not to let his emotions surface up, he had to handle his wife with care otherwise the whole therapy would backfire. " No honey no, you cant think like this, of course i love but then we need to take care of this child right." Manik tried again but Nandini had gone into another fit by now," I dont care about the child. Do you hear me i dont." And with this Nandini started to cry hard palming her face. Manik was taken aback by her statement but he had to compose himself, he knew she didnt mean it, he knew she loved her child and without wasting any time he wrapped his arms around her and she hid her face into his chest crying hard. Manik kissed her head numerous times and rubbed her back. How much he loved her. He still remembered the condition he had found her. He was out on a mission to find her abducted sister Mukti, but instead he found Nandini suffering from drug overdoe. He later got to know that she was his late sister's friend who had been abducted along with her. Mukti died because of drug overdose but fortunately Manik managed to save Nandini. He realized her as his responsibility when her family refused to accept her. With the help of several counselling sessions it had been possible to bring her out of her severe depression. The trauma of the abduction and the several rapes that followed was too much for Nandini to handle. Manik care for her as his responsibility but never realized when he fell for her. It was a difficult decision, marrying a drug addict who had been abducted once and raped several times. A girl who was once led a normal life but one wrong party changed her life. One wrong company made her a drug addict and destroyed her life forever. But he did not marry her out of sympathy or any other reason, he married her for the kind of human she was and who she could turn into if she the therapy will be a success. He didnt realize when Nandini's breaths got normal, she wasnt crying but as shivering now. Manik brought her face near his and looked into her red eyes. She slowly lowered them and replied in a whisper," I am sorry" Manik shushed her," I love you Nandini, i always will." Nandini slightly nodded to him, as if not trusting what he said. Manik understood her delima nand said again," Let it go." Nandini looked deep into his chocolate brown eyes. She knew what he meant and before she could detach herself out of embarrassment, Manik took her lips for a soulful kiss, and she allowed him to do it.
