Manyata's POV
I ran to my room and closed the door before he could say anything else.
I threw myself on the bed and cried bitterly. How could he say so?? How could he even think so??
There was a knock on the door, it was Swati. She called my name thinking that I was sleeping. I went
to the washroom and washed my face and eyes. I just wanted to go away from here without creating
any fuss.
So I composed my self and opened the door with a yawn. Swati was looking extremely excited about
something. She hugged me so hard that a tear threatened to come out of my eyes as she had become
my very good friend. I loved her a lot. I wanted to feel her excitement but something had died in me.
She asked me why my eyes were still red?? I said that I still had that headache.
She dragged me out to have food. So that I could have the medicine.
Apparently, she was with Samar Ji, and he seemed to have told her about his feelings. I was happy for
them. I tried to be happy for them but my mind was being stubborn and I could not think anything else.
I decided to end all this and go back to Delhi with Vikram Bhai.
Bhai came back to me and asked me if I was alright. I nodded and said that I had a headache. I
couldn't tell him anything as he would have beaten Sahil like anything.
I didn't want to spoil the good, light and happy atmosphere into a tensed one. He gave me medicine.
We all had food. Everyone was having fun. They all were teasing each other. I kept looking downwards
as I could have cried at the drop of a hat. I could feel, that Sahil was looking at me But I would not even
give him a look now.
I was kind of engrossed in my thoughts and didn't even pay heed to what Swati was saying. Samar Ji
also joined us and smiled at me but I couldn't even smile back at him.
A single tear came out of my eye. Which I wiped very fast but thankfully Samar Ji and Swati didn't saw
that as they were smiling at each other.
After lunch, Sagar Ji and his friends went for a walk along with their wives. I went to my room saying
that I was not well.
******
We had an awesome day there and then we came back.
Sagar Ji's friends were supposed to go back after lunch. Even Vikram Bhai was going, I wanted to go
with them. But before that, I needed to talk to Sagar Ji.
Swati called me for the girls' gossip but I excused my self and said that I needed to talk to Sagar Ji.
I heard him saying earlier that he was going to his office for some urgent work.
I went to the office and was looking for Sagar Ji when I saw him going towards his room. I had to talk to
him.
" Sagar Ji !! " I called him. He turned at looked at me.
" Sagar Ji, I need to talk to you. " he looked a bit surprised.
" Yes?? "
" Can we go somewhere ?? I mean I don't want anyone to hear. "
" Sure, come into the office. " He said and opened a door.
I went inside and he followed me.
" Yes, Manu?? What happened?? Are you fine now?? "
" I am ok Sagar Ji... Please listen to me... Sagar Ji, I want to go back home. "
" Home?? "
" I mean Delhi. I have my work. I have been neglecting it for so long, some assignments are lined up. "
" But how can you.... ? '
" Please Sagar Ji, I have had enough of this... I can't take it anymore. I don't want to be associated with
Sahil in any way.
" Manu....? "
" You always say that I must trust you and give it another try... You are like my elder brother, so I
agreed. But I have had enough. I don't even want to try anything. I don't want him in my life at all. As it
is I was feeling guilty that I was lying. I don't want to lie to him or anyone. He might be a good person
but we are not made for each other. "
" What are you saying? "
" Yes, Sagar Ji, I can't even think about spending one hour of my life with him. I am sorry that, I am
giving you stress at such a time when you are starting your new life. But I am losing it. And I don't want
to hide anything. I feel as If I am cheating. I have never done that in my whole life and don't want to do
it now. I want to get it over with. Please you once said that I am like Swati to you. So please let me go."
I said and started crying.
" Manu ?? "
" No Sagar Ji, Sahil is a good brother and a good man, but his happiness lies with someone else, not
me.
" How can you be so sure? Did he say something to you?
" No... He didn't say anything, I just can't pretend anymore. Please enjoy your new life with Damini. I
wish you lots of happiness. Please don't worry about me. I will be fine. Please tell Sahil that he need
not worry, I will never be a burden on him... "
" Manu ??? "
" No Sagar Ji, I am sorry...I respect you a lot but, enough is enough !!! I am going to end all that. " I said
and gave a big manila envelope to him. He looked shocked. He took it with many questions in his eyes.
Just then the door opened and Sahil came in.
" Sahil you forgot these papers at home..... Manu??? What are you doing here?? " He said.
What?? Why was Sahil calling Sagar Ji as Sahil?
Oh God!!! He was Sagar Ji...
That means the person whom, I explained everything was..... Sahil ???
Oh God!!!
" I came to talk to you Sagar Ji and thought he was you. He didn't even bother to tell me that he was ...
Anyways... It doesn't matter. Sagar Ji, I need to go back to my own life. All the best for your married © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
life. Please keep Damini very happy. She loves you a lot. I loved being here with your family. Everyone
is amazing specially Swati. Thanks for everything. "
" Manu wait.... "
" Sorry, Sagar Ji... I need to go... "
I said and gave a last look to Sahil. He looked as if he was shocked. He was looking at me with his
eyes and mouth wide open. It seemed that he was grounded and lost his ability to react.
I came out of their office and went home. I had already packed my bags. I said bye to everyone in the
family and said that I had work in Delhi. They all said that they would miss me. I tried to control my
tears with great difficulty. I would miss everyone, specially Damini and Swati.

Sahil's POV
I was shocked..... What did just happen now?? I was too shocked to react.
Sagar was going to the office for some important work. But as he got married the day before yesterday
and all his friends were at home, I offered to go to the office. I was working when all of a sudden Manu
came to the office.
I thought she was a fraction of my imagination. But she came towards me and called me as Sagar Ji.
Sagar?? She thought that I was him and wanted to talk to him.
I was so curious to know what urgent work she had with Sagar, so I did not correct her.
Then she started speaking and I was shocked as hell. I didn't understand anything.
What was she saying? What was going on?
She said that she didn't want to be associated with me. She also said that she didn't even want to
spend an hour with me.
I was getting more and more shocked and confused with her every word.
She kept talking about me, that I was a good person but we were not made for each other.
She gave an envelope to me and was about to go when Sagar came in.
He tried to persuade her again to stay but she refused politely yet firmly and went out. Sagar kept
looking at me.
I opened the envelope and was shocked to see the papers which I had sent to Manyata Singh Rathore.
My Divorce papers...
They were signed by Manyata Singh Rathore, with an additional clause that she didn't want anything
from me in return.
What the hell?? What was going on??
