Nandini's POV..
"How's my behna?"Tiger bhai asked patting my hair and I broke the hug gently..
"I am superb..!"I shouted happily as my excitement was not coming to an end..! Life was beautiful! I woke up and got my favorite gentlemen near me! Aur kya chye..!
"Good..! Actually I came to see you..! But you were sleeping?"He caressed my cheek and I snuggled in his palm..! "Waisy I have a plan..! Why don't you come with me! We can hang around you know siblings time?"He asked hesitantly and I was super happy but before I give my approval I look at Manik who was already smiling at us..!
"Main bhai kay sath chali jaoan?I asked to Manik innocently and his smile became more bright!
"Nandini..! Pehly tum Tiger ki behan phir meri wife..!"He solved every confusion with just one line..
"Thank you Manik..! Bhai let's go..!"I jumped off the couch and rushed to bathroom to get fresh..! I came out and saw them talking in low voice..! "What are you guys talking?"I asked cheekily and both look at me faking a smile..
"Nothing..! Are you ready chalain?"Bhai asked and I nodded..! Manik came forward and Bhai left the Cabin ordering me join him in parking..!
"So? Going to have some family time haan?"He asked cupping my cheeks and I smiled..!
"And it's all because of you!"I exclaimed and flunged in his arms..! He laughed loudly..! We broke the hug after sometime and he pecked my forehead but I pulled him for a kiss..! I kissed him softly and he responded with equal fervor..! "I love you..!"I muttered between the kiss and he pushed me on the couch..! He broke the kiss and started giving me wet kisses all over my throat..!
"I love you too..!"He spoke huskily as his lips lingered over my neck..! I sighed in pure bliss and held him close. He gave me another peck on lips then look in my eyes..! "Go..! 1 more minute and I will lose control..!"He said seductively and I smiled sheepishly..! He made me stood straight and I run out pecking his cheek..! I knew he will keep staring at the door for long time..!

"So..! Where should we go?"Bhai asked as soon as I sat in the car..
"Zoo..!"I exclaimed and bhai frowned..
"Zoo? Are you sure?"He asked hesitantly and I pouted..
"Bhai..! Please..! Myny kabhi Zoo nahi dekha..!!"I whined and he look at me with disbelief..
"Tu-tum ny kabhi Zoo nahi dekha?"He asked with a shocked expressions..
"Kaisy dekhti? Koi tha he nahi dekhny k liye!"I said shurgging my shoulders and the next moment I was in Bhai's arms..! He was sobbing in my hair..! Maybe I spoke too much..!
"I am sorry..! All the deprivation you suffered! Sorry for all that..!"He said in his sobs and I held my tears back..
"Bhai..! Why are you saying sorry? Please..! Ap ro gay tou main bhi ro paroon ge! Phi-phir Man-Manik ap say naraz ho jyen gay..!"I too stammered as my throat was choking badly..! Bhai broke the hug and pecked my forehead..!
"Anything! Jo bhi thing you need na just tell me! I will get you everything!"He said wiping his tears and I smiled..
"I have everything! Manik has given me everything!"Manik was a blessing in my life..!
"Main.! Main chah kar bhi Manik kay is ehsaan ka badla nahi utaar sakta..!"Bhai said staring at me..
"Main bhi nahi..!"I said my tears and he started the car..! Then whole day we roamed all over the city..! Zoo! Playgrounds! Shopping malls! Baraf Goola..! Pani Puri..! We did so much of crazy stuffs..!
"Haha..!"He laughed so loudly when I told him that how once I did naughtiness and Dhruv got caught instead of me..! "God Nandu..! Tu itne naughty the..!"He was still laughing..! And we sat on a bench..! It was night now..!
"Yes and I am still very naughty..!"I told him proudly as if being naughty was a very good deed..
"I am glad that you got Manik..! He seems to be very patient with you..! He loves you so much..!"Bhai said taking me in a side hug and I wrapped my arms around his waist..
"Yes..! And I too love him a lot..!"I said happily and he kissed my hair..! "Acha bhai..! Ap ko yaad hai! When for the first time we met! I fell in the pool and you saved me!"I said smiling all the time and he nodded..
"Yeah..! See destiny start say he hmy pass lana chahti the..! It tricked us..!"Bhai said caressing my hair and I smiled..
"Bhai..! Aik baat pochoon?"I asked looking at him and he nodded..! "Maa kesi the? I mean her looks? Her talks sab?"I asked hesitantly and he look at the sky..
"Mama..! She was an angel Nandini..! She was the most beautiful and dignified lady I ever met!"Bhai started and he was already in tears..! "She used to love me and you alot..!"He said looking at me and I look away..
"Aur Dad?"I said softly..
"He..! I don't have anything to tell you about him! I was 18 years old when I left home..! Since 12 past years I am living all by own..! Dad top my bank balance every month! But I never use even a single cent from it! He sometimes calls me to ask whether I am fine or not! That's it..!"Bhai told me so casually..
"Bhai aik aur baat pochhon?"Again my question and he nodded.. "When I was a baby wasn't I beautiful enough?"I asked biting my lower lip and he look at me confused..
"Hain? Why are you asking this?"He asked in a confusion.
"Wo.! I was thinking that maybe I wasn't much beautiful! That's why Dad don't love me..!"I said staring at Stars..! I didn't had the courage to look at bhai! I was crying with silent tears..
"Forget about Dad..! Main hoon na..! I will be your everything!"He spoke after a long time and I wiped my tears..
"I love you bhai..!"I said and kissed his cheeks..!
"I love you too bacha..!"He said and pecked my forehead..! "Acha tjy ice cream khana hai?"He tried to cheer up my mode and I nodded happily.. "You sit here main lay kar ata hoon ok..! Kahen jana ni..!"He said to me and left to get us ice creams.. I was staring at the stars and suddenly I heard some laughs..! I saw few boys laughing at me and I ignored them. Slowly they walked towards me and stood in front of me..
"Akeli bethi ho?"One of them asked and I turned my face. I was praying that may Bhai come soon.
"Ohoo! Ab jawab bhi ni do ge!"Again one of them spoke and I stood up. Aiyapaa why always me..! I tried to walk away but one of them held my hand..
"Leave my hand!"I shouted and they all laughed..
"Aray! Hmy laga tum bore ho rahi ho! Islye tmhy company deny aa gye!"Another boy spoke and I glared at him..!
"She is the same one in the picture..!"First boy spoke and I stared at him..
"Who sent you?"I asked and they again laughed..! "Leave me..!"I again tried to free myself from his grip..
"Stop resisting!"One of the again shouted and raised his hand to slap me when suddenly someone held his hand. I look at the person and bhai!!
"How dare you? How dare you touch my sister!"He shouted and pushed the boys away. Tears formed in my eyes and Bhai was beating all of them he was very strong..! I felt like my wrist burning where that boy had held me..!
"Manik..!"My saviors name escaped my mouth! I wanted to hide myself in his arms..! When suddenly I heard Bhai shouting on a man..! He was beating him too..
"Kis ny bhaija hai tjy..!"Bhai yelled and punched the boy..! "Tell me?"He again yelled and another punch..
"Malhotra..! Raj Malhotra..!"The man spoke and I froze on my place..! My own Father In Law! He was so sweet when I met him in the morning and he sent goons for me! I felt so unreal..! What if bhai na aaty tou? Ya log mery sath kya karty? After a lots of 'pitai' the goons ran away and Bhai rushed towards me..
"Theek hai tu?"He asked cupping my cheeks..
"Mjy Manik kay pass jana hai bhai!"I said in a trance..
"Haan chalty hain pehly ice cream tou kha lain..!"He tried to calm me..
"Bhai! Mjy bus Manik kay pass jana hai..!"I shouted and he hugged me tightly..
"Acha ok..! Let's go!"He said patting my head and we walked to his car still hugging eachother. During the whole way he tried to talk to me but I didn't responded not that I didn't want to but because I was shocked..! He halted the car at Malhotra Mansion and ignoring all his shouts I run to get Manik..
"Manik..! Manik..!"That's all I was shouting..
