Jack's POV...

"Good Evening Jack Sir!" Mohan greeted me as I entered Manik's house there was an unusual kind of silence.

"Evening Mohan! Itne khamoshi q hai?

Nandini ni hai kya ghar pay?" I asked playfully and Mohan laughed.

"Exactly sir! Mam is not at home yet! But Sir is in his room! You can go and meet him!"

He said nodding his head and I smiled before climbing the stairs.

Nandini kay hoty huay ghar pay khamoshi ho he aisa ho he ni skta..

I smilingly knocked Manik's door and heard a yes so I entered.

"Hey Jack! Tu yahan?" Manik exclaimed as he was working on his laptop.

"Haan me tou yahan! But tu bta! Aj tu aur Nandini alag alag! Fight tou nii hue?" I asked plopped on the bed beside him and he shook his head.

"Aray no yaar! She was getting bored! Tou myny usy Tiger ki taraf bhej diya! Aati ho ge!" He said still busy in his work and I nodded before looking around his room.
"Yaar! Why do you work so much? Bus kar day na! Let's drink!" I nudged him and he nodded.

"Bus ya ho gya! Chal!" He said shutting the laptop and I clapped.

"Haan chal!" I exclaimed back before jumping off his bed.

"No yaaar! I think MS Dhoni is the best captain ever!" I spoke gulping another shot and Manik nodded.

I was a cricket holic..

"Yes! There is absolutely no doubt in that!" Manik said smiling at me and I was super happy. He was my only buddy who used to listen all my cricket rants patiently that's why I liked him so much. "Acha Jack tu beth! Me zara fresh ho k ata hoon! He spoke getting up and I showed him a thumbs up gulping another shot in my stomach. I whistled leisurely when suddenly Manik's phone buzzed..

I looked around before peeping at his phone tongue stuck out from side of my lips and I saw 'Baby' caller ID flashing on the screen..

Nandini...

Suddenly my naughty or I would rather say evil mind started working and I picked up the call..

"Hello?" I said carefully..

"Hello Jack? Where is Manik?" Nandini's voice had a concern..

"Wo bathroom main hai! Tu bool?" I replied..

"Acha! Tu un ko bta dena that tonight am staying at Bhai's house!" She said innocently and BULLS EYE!

She made it easier for me..

"Nandu! Behna! It's better k ab tu kbhi wapas mat ana!" I said dramatically..

"What rubbish!" She shouted from the other side hell loud that I had to keep the phone away from my ear.

"Rubbish ni! Sach hai behna! Sach! Wo Manik! Tjy pta us ny tery bary me kya kya bola hai!" I said touching my ear and continued. "Us ny bola Nandini is annoying! She irritates me a lot! Aur she eats a lot! One day she will burst due to eating! Aur us ny bola that she snores in sleep!" I blabbered the every possible 'bakwas'..

"Aisy bola unhn ny?" She asked in disbelief and I sighed dramatically before resuming my bakwas session.

"Word to word copy kiya myny!" I said again and paused.

"Aur kuch bola kya?" She asked in a hell sad tone and I controlled my laugh..

"Haan aur bola kay ab Nandu ghar na he aye tou behtar hai q k main tou bohat tang hoon us say!" I said again and thuuckk! She hung up the phone..

Haha! Love birds ab maza aye ga!

"Nandini ko tou suna di! Ab Manik ka smbhalna hai!" I mumbled and immediately spiked Manik's drink. Soon he came brushing his hair through his finger and I plastered serious expressions on my face.
"Mera phone baja tha?" He asked sitting back on the stool and I sighed.

"Haan! Baja tha! Nandu the!" I spoke handing him the spiked drink.

"Acha! Kya bool rahi the?" He asked reaching for his cell but I snatched it from him.

"Pehly tu drink pee! Phir batata hoon!" I said nodding my head and he shrugged before drinking the shot in one go. Then I gave him a second shot and within minutes he was drunk.

"Bta na? Kya keh ri the meri jaaan!" He spoke slurring a lot and I made a bad face on the word 'meri jaan'..

Too much love. Ab dekhta hoon beta kitna pyaar hai..

"Haan! Nandini! Dekh bhai! Jo me te ko batany wala hoon na! Tou bohat hoslay say sun'na!" I said in a typical hamdardi wali tone and he look at me confused.

"Bta naaa!" He nagged like a baby and I got up. I walked around him and patted his shoulder.

"Nandini! Keh rahi the kay ab wo ghar ni aye ge!" I blasted the bomb and Manik almost fell off the stool.

"What?" He asked me in a horrified tone and I nodded sadly.

"But wh-why?" He asked innocently with a pout and I sighed shaking my head.

"She said kay Manik irritates me a lot! He bosses me around and he snores in night!" I spoke in one breath and Manik's mouth hung open almost touching the floor.

"Aisa bola kya us ny??" He asked fluttering his eyelids and I again nodded dramatically.
"Aur bhi kuch bola?" He asked cutely and suddenly I felt bad but no! Huhh! Nandu ki bachi say badla lena hai...

"And she said kay Manik doesn't love me!" I said looking at him with the corner of my eye and the expressions on Manik's face were priceless.

"I love her yaar!" He nagged and I held his hand.

"I know! But she thinks you don't! And she said kay tu Tiger say daarta hai!" I said cocking my head around and suddenly Manik's anger rose to peak.

"Main ni dartaaa!" He roared stumbling here and there but I caught hold of him.
"Haan na! Myny bhi us say yai bolaa! But she said kay ni! Manik darta hai aur us main himat ni kay sab kay samny mjy I Love You boly!" I said reaching the peak of drama and Manik's eyes widened.
"Himat hai!!!" He shouted banging his fist on the counter and I internally laughed like a maniac.

"Tou prove kar na bhai!" I said innocently and he pouted..

"Kesy?" He asked sadly and I clicked my fingers.

"Tu ny Shoally Movie dekhi hai?" I asked naughtily and he gave me a slight shook of his head. "Tu tension mat lay! Chal jaldi chal! Let's prove!" I said dragging him with me grabbing a bear bottle from the stand.
Get ready Khurrana siblings! Especially you Tiger teri izzat ka janaza aj tera Jeja nikaly ga! Wo bhi Sab mohaly waloon kay samny!

Nandini's POV..

"Bhai! Manik! How can he Even say this!" I wailed again hugging bhai tightly and Bhai patted my head.

"Beta! I think there is some misunderstanding!" He again consoled me helplessly but I shook my head.

"Bhaaaiii!" I was wailing like a baby and he kissed my forehead before giving a total helpless look to Mukti.

"Choti! I am sure it's Jack's prank!" She said caressing my hair but I was hurt beyond repair and don't know why I was feeling so so emotional my head was spinning.

"Bus kar day mera bacha! Mat ro!" Bhai said politely and I cried more.

"Bhaaaiii!!!! I hate Manik!" Here comes another sob and I bhai hugged me more.
"Me Manik ko phone krta hoon! Us ko himat bhi kesy hue!" Bhai was now getting angry and I shook my head..

"No! Ap un say kuch ni bolain gay!" I said crying more and Bhai gave me another helpless look. Before he could say anything a cracking sound echoed in the lounge and we all jumped. I saw a stone lying in the middle of the lounge and it had hit the window.

"Who bas***d is that now!" Bhai roared getting up and rushing towards the window while I hugged Mukti but forced to back away as we heard bhai's gasp it was...

"Manik!"

I got up with a jerk and run towards the window as soon as I caught the site of what was happening in the road my breath stopped..

"Aiyappa!!!! Maanikkk!" I shouted totally horrified as Manik was standing on the roof of his car with a bear bottle in hand totally drunk. He was swaying...

"He will fall!" I shouted again and we three run outside. As we reached near him his blabbers became clear to my ears...

"Gaoan walooon!" He shouted loudly as we approached him.

"Oye Manik! Neechy utar!" Bhai spoke gritting his teeth but Manik showed him his tongue..

Hain? What the hell is wrong with him? An hour ago he had talked ill about me aur ab ya 'tamasha'!

"Niii! Niii utrooon ga neechy!" Manik shouted so loud and soon I saw people coming out of the houses around.

Aiyappa this is embarrassing!

"Hello people!" Manik waved at the people around us and all were hiding their smiles..
Aww he is so cute! But why am I having a feeling that am in trouble after the drama is getting over...

"Manik!!! Tamasha mat banain neechy utrain!" I spoke glaring at him and tried to cover him as he stumbled over the roof.
"Exactly Manik! Come down!" Tiger bhai said holding his hand but he jerked him away.

"Aaa! Chup! Tu! Me darta warta ni hoon tj say smjha tu! Ya jo teri behen hai na biwi hai meri! Legally! Married! Wife! Utha k lay jaoan ge! Rook skta hai????" He said showing bhai a punch and I literally wanted to hide somewhere.

But trust me he was looking so damn adorable too..

"Haaan mery baaap! I know kay tu ni darta mj say! Abbi neechy aa!" Bhai pleaded helplessly but Manik showed him his hand and looked at me with a sweet smile...
Oh God now what was he upto?

I looked around and people were laughing now. God! I tried hiding my face but in vain...

"Gaoan walooon! You all must be wondering that haaw what is this man doing in the middle of the night?" Manik spoke looking over the people and all were hell amused as they all nodded with serious faces...

"Ok ok! No problem! I will tell you all! This cute girl standing with this hulk is my wife!" Manik started and bhai stared at Manik with wide open mouth on the mention of 'hulk'. I look at bhai to find any traces of resemblance with hulk but thankfully I find none...

Wait how can I ignore the compliment 'cute'...Aww I love you hubby!

Ohh no ! Shh! You are angry with him Nandu! Focus! Focus!

"This hulk has created misunderstanding between my wife and me! Nandu? I irritate you a lot? Baby do I boss you around? And and do I snore????" He asked me fluttering his eyelids and wait what? The same things he said about me why is he repeating these? My mind worked for few seconds and shit..!!!

Jackkk!!!! I will kill you! Not only me but Manik too..

"Gaoan walooon! Tonight I am here to prove my love! My love for this girl! Who is my life!" Manik again shouted but his eyes were locked with mine.

His words sank deeper in my heart and felt a rush of tears stinging my eyes.

Then he jumped down and If Tiger bhai hadn't supported him he would have fall badly. Then what he done next was enough to embarrass me more as he knelt in front of me joining his hands.

"Baby! I am sorry for all the mistakes! I love you so much! Itna ziada kay it hurts! Tell me what can I do to prove my love?" He was asking like a baby and I looked around to see people aweing at us.

"Manik! Abhi bohat raat ho gai hai! Get up and let's go inside please!" I tried changing his mind and held his hands which he was holding in front of me. He slowly got up and I smiled.

I sighed in relief and was about to drag him when Suddenly his next move left me baffled as he grasped the back of my neck,pulling me closer and fused my lips with his. I heard gasps around but it didn't effect him. My eyes widened as I try to push him but he didn't move an inch. His other hand went in my hair and he pulled away the clipper, causing my hair to spread over my shoulders all the time kissing me, coaxing me to kiss him back. The cool night wind touched my tender skin and I closed my eyes to give in. I heard clapping and cheering behind us while we kissed each other passionately.

His touch was possessive as well as assuring...

His kiss had a magic which easily casted a spell over me and caused me to fall for this mighty man over and over again.

His one had fisted my hair and other was caressing my back drawing lazy circles making me go crazy with desires...

He knew my body more then I knew myself...

He knew how to use me and conquer over me effortlessly..

Even in the state of semi consciousness he was in charge and I use to love to be his slave...

He was my master! Most kindest master I could ever had...

I broke apart when my lungs gave out and he stared at me with half opened eyes..

"I love you so much Nandini!" He whispered lowly holding my hands and I smiled nodding my head..

"Tiger! Never knew you have such a sweet family!" I heard an aunty saying and I smiled resting my head on Manik's chest.

"God bless them both!" Another comment and finally all the people went inside leaving us alone. We both were still standing hugging each other..

"Jack! Come out!" I heard bhai roaring and he gestured us to go inside. I myself wanted to deal with Jack but Manik needed me..
________________
"Manik thoda sa please!" I pleaded trying to feed him a morsel of chapatti but he shook his head in my neck and hide more in my hair.
"Is he ok?" Mukti asked worriedly and I sighed nodding my head..
"He is ok! It happens sometimes! Kuch bhi pasand ni ata in ko! And abhi tou he is totally drunk! Feeding him is not a good ldea!" I said softly running my fingers through his hair and he purred like a baby kitten snuggling in me more.
"Manik! You want something else?" Mukti again tried but he shook his head..
"It's ok! Mood theek ni hai in ka!" I said to Mukti who was looking hell worried ,caressing Manik's hair more and she smiled..

"Kitna badal gya hai ya! You have changed him!" Mukti said sweetly and I kissed Manik's hair smiling at her.

"Baby!" He murmured raising his head...
"Ji?" I said softly cupping his cheek and he blinked his eyes like a baby before making a bad face...

"Manik? Are you feeling ok?" I said worriedly as he shook his head before puking on the floor and over me..

"Ohoo! Manik!" I said rubbing his back to calm him down and he look at me apologetically...

"Sorry!" He was on verge of crying and I smiled shaking my head. Before I could say anything Bhai came in..

"Sh!t! Manik buddy tu theek hai!" Bhai freaked out sitting on Manik's either side and Manik nodded..

"You both need to change! Nandini you come with me! Tiger Ap Manik ki help kar den!" Mukti said taking my hand and I got up with her..

"Yeah ok! Chal Manik! Let's take a shower! You will feel better!" Bhai said helping Manik and he look at me..

"Sorry baby! Myny tmhry clothes bhi dirty kar diya!" He said in a babyish tone all the time being dragged with Bhai and I gave him a wave..

"He is such a baby!" I heard Mukti and we cleaned the floor laughing at him.
_____________________
"Tu apny clothes mjy day so that I put them in washer! Next time say kuch clothes yahan rakh dena! Because tu ab tou aati he rahy ge!" Mukti said giving me a box which had a new dress and pushed me inside the bathroom of my room. Bhai had told me that from now on it was my room whenever I will come to his house.

"Yeah ok!" I said taking off my clothes and gave them to Mukti. "Mukti please Manik ko dekh lena aik baar!" I shouted from inside and heard her laughter. I myself smiled thinking about how he was behaving. Jack will be so dead in the morning when Manik will be sober. I wonder what must Bhai had done to him..

I rinsed my body and shampooed my hair. After taking a long cold shower I grabbed the towel and dried myself. Then I opened the box of clothes Mukti had given me and my eyes widened when I stared at the night dress she had given me...

It was plum color lingerie with black lace..
Oh God it was so much exposing. How am gonna wear it?

Mukti! Am gonna kill you! Idiot!!!

I looked around for something to wear but there was nothing. Reluctantly I slipped in that thin piece of cloth and look at myself in the mirror. I blushed profusely imaging Manik's reaction already and a little scared too as well as excited. I hope he was a little sober now. I dried my hair and let them fall on my back. Pursing my lips nervously I opened the bathroom door slowly and saw him standing with his back towards me. My heartbeat quickened and I saw the switch board with in a second I switched off the lights. Only the moon light crept inside and I noticed Manik turning. I quickly grabbed the blanket from the bed and wrapped myself in it..

"Nandini! Why you turned off the lights?" He asked still slurring and I gulped the lump in throat..

His face looked like some slayer as the moon light fell on it...

"Wo! Aisy he!" I spoke nervously and he walked me closer. His eyes shined with the intensity and trust me my legs started gobbling..

"Why this blanket?" He asked huskily as he reached me trapping me with the bathroom door and I breathed heavily. "What's under the blanket beauty?" He was getting over romantic and I was going crazy..

I will die...

I will die...

"Man-manik!" I tried speaking but my tongue went numb as his hand reached mine which was fisting the blanket near my chest. He wanted to see through the blanket. I knew what will happen when the blanket will fall!

"Tell me?" The husk of his voice made me lose whatever I was holding. He pinned my other hand over my head and other was still over my fist. Not for once he tried to open my fist.

Oh God..! Save me...

"Is there something which is already mine?" He whispered in my ear and I look in his eyes spell bound...

"Tell me what are you hiding?" He again asked and I shook my head in a no blushing to no extent. He smirked..

"So you don't wanna tell me?" He asked seductively and I shook my head again..

"Ohk! Should I see it all by myself?" He asked again and I saw a spark in his eyes.
What are you doing Nandini? Let him in..
"Bolo na? Me khud dekh loon?" He asked again and I nodded closing my eyes. He must be smiling. I felt him opening my fist finger by finger and eventually the whole fist was open. The blanket slowly slipped off my shoulders and I wasn't able to hold it. I immediately turned and heard Manik's gasp...

Itni mohabbat karo na
Main doob na jaaun kahin
Waapas kinaare pe aana
Main bhool na jaaun kahin
Dekha jabse chehra tera
Main toh hafton se soya nahin

I plastered my front with the bathroom door and tried to control myself. My both palm turned sweaty as they slipped down the door. I sensed his heating gaze on my back which was barely covered with the thin material. I heard his breath getting closer until his chest pressed my back and he moved my hair aside tucking it over my shoulder. Now I had nothing which hide my back from his predator eyes and he traced his finger on my spine making me shudder more as his hands plamed mine on the door trapping me completely...

"Nandini!" His whisper reached my ear and closed my eyes...

"Haan?" I whispered back and he nuzzled over my bare shoulder.

Oh God his tortures...

Bol do na zara
Dil mein jo hai chhipa
Main kisi se kahunga nahi
Main kisi se kahunga nahi

"Pyaar karti ho na mj say?" He spoke haorsely and my breath stopped again what he wanted to do now?

"Bohat ziada!" I spoke breathlessly and he turned me with a jerk. Next second I was pushed on the bed and was hovered by him..

"You made me go crazy Nandini!" Manik whispered in my ear from the side and I clutched the bedsheets tightly shutting my eyes tightly..

"Open your eyes!" He growled angrily and my eyes snapped open only to meet his dark chocolate ones filled with desires.

I knew that look!

I knew it...

"Now keep looking in my eyes and answer my questions ok?" He spoke dangerously and I nodded helplessly. Relaxing myself under his touch..

Yes I didn't had any other option else to submit myself to him and trust me I didn't need any other option either.

I needed him...

Only him...

No one else...

Nothing else..

Mujhe neend aati nahi hai akele
Khawabon mein aaya karo

Nahi chal sakunga tumhare bina main
"You like it when I touch your hair yes or no?" He asked innocently playing with my hair and I smiled raking my fingers through his hair...

"Yes!" I said lovingly and he nodded..

I didn't had any idea that where this game will lead to but I knew he will be with me...

"Do you like it when I kiss your forehead?" He spoke kissing my head..

"Yes!"...

"Do You like it when I kiss your eyes?"

"Yes!"

"Do you like it when I touch your bare arms like my possession?" His voice was growing huskier as he traced his expert fingers over my bare arms...

"Ye-yes!" I was going breathless..

"Do you like it when I trace your lips with my thumb?" He spoke more huskily as his rubbed his thumb over my lips and my throat went dry as well as my lips. I tried wetting my lips by tongue but he didn't let me and pulled my lower lip down leaning closer..

Mera tum sahara bano
Ik tumhe chahne ke alaawa
Aur kuch humse hoga nahi

"Do you like it when I kiss you on your dry lips?" He mumbled over my lips and he finally placed his lips over me.

I kissed him hungrily as we both quenched our thrust of ages..

His tongue roamed all around my mouth and I pulled him more closer. As much as I could I fisted his hair and his hands roamed all over my exposed skin.

"Ahh!" I moaned as he bite my lip harshly and I felt it was bleeding. Then he sucked it with full care..

Bol do na zara
Dil mein jo hai chhipa
Main kisi se kahunga nahi
Main kisi se kahunga nahi

"Do want me? Nandini!?" He mumbled between the kiss and I literally was on verge of crying. He was teasing me beyond compare..

"Yes!" I cried out as he broke the kiss while his hands pulled the straps of my dress but it was difficult so what he did next was enough for me to cry more as he tore the flimsy dainty fabric in one pull and started kissing my throat.

I didn't had the courage to stop him rather I submitted...

I dug my nails in his shoulders as his tongue flicked over my sensitive parts doing magic all around. The temperature of the room rose and the chill air coming from the AC failed to calm us down. We were drown in the passion.

I didn't knew when he had undressed himself too.

I didn't when he tucked us in the blanket all

I knew was him! Only him..

His possessive touch over my body.

His eyes holding passion for me.

He kissed me...

He bite me...

He licked the bites to sooth the pain..
He kept torturing me for a long time and I climbed the staircase of ecstasy step by step holding his hand.

"I love you Nandini!" He whispered with an authority and I felt blessed once more.
"You are mine!" He mumbled as he forced my hands on the mattress because we had climbed the staircase finally.

"Yours Manik! Only yours!" I whispered back in his ear and finally he claimed me sealing my cries in a kiss lastly collapsing over me face in my neck. We didn't spoke for a long time as he breathed in my neck and I caressed his hair all the time calming his still tensed muscles.

"I think I was harsh!" I heard his mumble over my skin he was still drunk and I caressed his hair more..

"Just shhh! You were more then perfect! Just sleep! I think it's enough for tonight!" I spoke pressing my lips on his hair and he shifted his weight from me to aside but hand was still around my waist and head in my hair..

"Manik! Main kahen ni ja rahi!" I whispered trying to free myself a little but he shook his head like a baby and snuggled in me more. I sighed and stared at the ceiling remembering the moments we just shared. Again a beautiful night was marked..
____________________
I woke up feeling a sudden cramp in my stomach and I tried getting up but Manik was holding me very tightly. I gently untangled myself from him and grabbing his shirt I run towards the bathroom to throw up whatever was arousing in my throat.

Oh God..

What is happening. I think I over ate last night.

I wiped my face with the towel and freshen up. Then I came out of the bathroom and saw Manik fluttering his eyes. He was waking up..

"Rise and shine hubby!" I exclaimed trying to shove away the dizziness and he turned his head towards me..

"Morning baby! Ahhh!" He wished me morning and held his head..

"Oh is it aching?" I asked worriedly and sat beside him. I caressed his hair and he almost cried in pain.

"Shh! Manik! It's ok! It will be OK!" I calmed him down and he opened his eyes...
"What happened last night?" He asked in a confused tone looking at me and then to himself. I blushed looking down while he gave me a cocky smile..

"Ohh! Looks like we had so much of fun last night!" I spoke huskily and I shyly tried to get up but he pulled me under him kissing me once again...

We were enough for each other!

Manik's POV..

"I will kill youu!!!!" I roared running behind him and he hide his cell phone which had my video where I was doing a stupid kind of Tamsha in front of the whole Mohala!
"Because of you aik third class Romeo jesi image ban gai hai!" I shouted and all laughed more..

"Manik! Wesy maza bohat aya! Ufff!" He was now laughing...

"Kaminy! Kuttay!" I shouted again and finally caught him. I punched him so tightly I was sure his jaw must be aching..

"Manik! Bus kar!" Max spoke still laughing and Tiger came to untangle us.

"Manik sachi! I can't believe it's you! Cabir spoke still staring at the phone. Jack had sent the video to all other three..

"Calm down guys!" Tiger said and freed us.

"Me maar doon ga isyyy salay!" I shouted again...

"Sala tou main teri biwi k bhai ka banoon ga!" He was an ass..

"Ok enough! Chup!" Tiger said as his phone was ringing..

"Haan Nandu bacha!?" He spoke on the phone and we all got attentive..

"Acha ok! Me aa raha hoon! Haan! Ok beta! Just be careful!" Tiger said hanging up..

"What happened?" I asked curiously..

"Wo she is coming to my house apny clothes rkhny! Mukti ny bola tha! Mukti ghar ni hain so she is saying kay me aa jaoan!" Tiger said getting up and I nodded..

"Yeah mjy bhi office jana hai! Please us ko kuch khila dena! Wo kuch ni kha rahi! Us ki tbyt bhi theek ni hai! Kuch bta bhi ni rahi!" I said scratching my head as I remembered the morning incident.

Flashback..

"Nandini baby kya hua?" I asked worriedly as she came out of the bathroom when we came back home she had run towards the bathroom..
"Manik!" She mumbled coming close to me and I immediately wrapped my arms around her..
"Shh! Tell me? You wanna go to doctor!?" I asked kissing her hair and she shook her head..
"Am tired and want to sleep!" She mumbled and I thought for a moment..
"Is it because of last night?" I asked sheepishly and she kept quiet..
Did I troubled her a lot? Sh!t how can I be so harsh on my fragile doll..
"Sorry baby! Come let's sleep!" I said softly and picked her up. Then she didn't allow me to leave until she dozed off...

Flashback end..

"She was not feeling well!" I said worriedly and Tiger nodded..

"Tu tension ni lay me dekh loon ga!" That's all his answer was...

Nandini's POV...

Gripping the staircase raling tightly I reached the final step and sighed. My head was spinning and I was feeling hell dizzy. I took a further step and stumbled when two arms held me..

"Are you ok kid?" I heard a heavy voice and my looked up still holding to the person tightly.

"Yeah! Thanks Uncle!" I said softly trying to remain steady and he smiled.

His smile felt familiar. His eyes! His lips! His facial features everything...

"You are looking pale! Who are you kid?" He asked again and I smiled shaking my head..

"I am ok Uncle! Sorry! I am Nandini! Nandini Manik Malhotra!" I introduced myself now standing straight and that Uncle nodded smiling back..

"Oh so you are Manik's wife? Tiger's friend! Nice to meet you!" He said affectionately and I was confused...

"Ap Tiger Bhai ko kesy jaanty hain aur Manik ko bhi?" I said in a confused tone...
"Oh sorry! My Name is Mohit! Mohit Khuranna! I am Tiger's father!" He introduced himself and breath stopped...

Mohit Khuranna...

Tigers father...

Dad...

He was my Dad...

I backed off and he look at me confused...
"What happened kid?" He asked trying to hold me again but I jerked his hand away..
"No! No!" I shouted And run down stairs. He kept shouting for me but I didn't stop.
I wanted Manik..

Only him...

My head was sippinig but I didn't stop. I didn't know how I reached his office building how I climbed the stairs and finally I reached his conference hall..
"Manik!" I almost screamed in pain as I pushed the door the open. Cabir bhai and Manik were sitting with some delegates. Manik got up with a jerk and rushed towards me. I fell in his arms and he gathered me..

"Nandini! What happened?" He freaked out cupping my cheeks and wiping my tears as I breathed heavily..

"Manik! Manik! Wo! Myny usy dekha!" I shouted fisting his shirt in my hands because I was so much dizzy...

"Baby! Koi ni hai! Kisy dekha?" He asked patiently and my eyes started getting close..
"Hai! He will kill me!" I spoke stumbling but he held me close to his chest..

"Shhh! Meray hoty huay koi tmhy choo bhi ni sakta!" He spoke patting my head and I cried like a maniac. "Baby please tell me? Kisy dikha?" He pleaded and I held him more tightly..

"Moh-mohti Khura-khuranna!" These were my last words before fainting in his arms...
____________________
Manik's POV...

I crazily marched in front of my room while other buddies were standing around. Doctor was checking Nandini and I closed my eyes again as I remembered how much vulnerable she was when she reached my office...

"I will kill your father if he dared to touch my Nandini!!!!" I roared on Tiger and he looked hell worried..

"He is my sister too! Please Manik! I love her too! Dad kuch ni karen gay! Please!" He pleaded but I shook my head..

"Why is he back? Kya chahta hai wo? How he met Nandini?" I asked loudly..

"I got late! Nandini reached there before me where Dad was already waiting for me!" He explained lowly and I slammed my fist on the wall..

"f**k!" I shouted and suddenly Doctor came out...

"Doctor! How is my wife?" I asked hysterically and Doctor smiled nodding her head..

"Relax Mr.Malhotra! Your wife and Baby both are absolutely fine!" Her words threw me in a state of shock and I stared at her..
"Ba-baby?" I asked in a dazed tone and she nodded...

"Yes! She is pregnant! But she is very weak! You have to take care of her! Or else it will be very dangerous!" She said in a serious tone and I really didn't know how to react...
I was shocked and...
