"Yaar aab ghar chaalon,,inn logo ka hogaya hoga jo bhi karna tha !! I can't wait more to have bunny's handmade food yaar..." Cabir the bhukkad said.

"And how do you know Ki Choti ney khana banaya hai ?? Aur agar banaya bhi hoga toh Tere liye rahega?? Manik k liye hai woh" Mukti said giving a reality check.

"Do think Bunny will cook and won't keep for me !!! Huuh !! Back to earth Ms.Vedant" Cabir said in a blah tone rolling his eyes to which Mukti too rolled her eyes.

"He's right Mukti!! Aisa toh nei karegi Nandini" Dhruv too said.

"Ok let's get going then" Navya said.

Dhruv picked up already slept Alya in his arms & walked towards their car when Cabir sang "Dil kyaa karein jaab kisiko kisi sey pyaar ho jayein..Jaane kaha kaab kisiko kisise pyaar ho jayein..."

Dhruv smiled sheepishly and Mukya laughed inaudibly.

They sat in the car where Cabir took the driving seat with Navya beside him.Dhruv & sleeping Alya in the middle,Mukti at the back seat.

"Guys Kya lagta hai woh log Kya kar rahe honge??" Mukti said giggling excitedly.

"Shut up Mukti !! Kya tum bhi.." Navya said glaring but smiling.

Cabir laughed on their talks.When Mukti's phone beeped indicating an incoming message.Mukti's face lit up seeing the sender which Cabir noticed from the rare view mirror & wondered the reason. Navya looked at Cabir when he eyed her to look at Mukti which she did and noticed Mukti's smile.Navya looked back at Cabir to which he smirked & Navya smiled.

Dhruv didn't notice anything as he was busy admiring Alya.

"Unchee unchee diwaaron see, is dunya kee rasme
naa kuchh tere bas mein joolie, naa kuchh mere bas me" Cabir again sang when Mukti & Dhruv got alerted immediately looked at Cabir leaving whatever they're doing to which Navya & Cabir started laughing hysterically. Hearing them Alya got up from her sleep and looked at everywhere like strangers,and seeing her others too started laughing to which Alya pouted.

After some hearty laughs & leg pulling they finally reached Mansion where Cabir parked the car & gave Dhruv the keys saying "Bhai main thora jaldi mein hoon,, lock kardey" seeing his love for food Navya sometimes feels jealous.

They too ran and there's chit at the door "I know bhai ko toh smell bhi mil gaya hoga aab taak... As you guys are here andar bhi jayein aab"

They smiled knowing how well she knows them.Opening the door they found the hall dark.Cabir walked to switch on the lights & fans that's when some flower petals fell on them,making them surprised.

When they again got two chits on the floor sayings

1)You guys are special too for me.I love each one of you.The only family I've.❤️

2)Navya,could you please reheat the foods for everyone.I've already arranged the table.🤗

Everyone felt blessed to have Nandini in their life,happy tears were there in their eyes which they shoved.She never let them feel left out.Tried making everything special in her own way.

"That's my bunny,my little munchkin" Cabir said in between tears.Making Cabir cry that too out of happiness isn't any easy,, Fab3 along with Navya hugged him saying "Our Nandini".

After talking about Nandini,they relished their dinner and decided to call it a day and dispersed in their rooms.

__________

The sun rays didn't disturb them as the morning wasn't very sunny..So they got up late around 8:30 in the morning when Manik's phone vibrated in his pocket.

He saw that it was from Cabir.So he received the call-

"Good Morning Chaddi Buddy"

"Good Morninh what !!??" Manik frowned on his new name given by Cabir.

"Chaddi Buddy,, by the way before you start showing off your useless attitude wake up,it's already 8:30 and Bunny has college... So wake up my little sister lovingly and come inside"

"You guys are home ??" Manik asked.

"Yes, we came late night,aab jaldi aaja,Navya made breakfast & Bunny  ka bag bhi  Navya ney ready kardi hai!!" Saying this Cabir hung up.

"Haan him aat......" Manik couldn't complete when he realised that Cabir have already hung up & rolled his eyes.

"Bachha,, it's 8:30 .. Wanna get up ?? Aapko college jana hai na aj?? So,, get up my princess" Manik tried to wake up Nandini bussing her temple,cheeks.

Nandini whined when Manik again said loving "Good Morning Minion Pop,wakes time honey!!! Navya made your favourites in breakfast,, college bhi aaj half day hai,,uske baad we all will go out.. Uth jao mera bachha"

Can anyone be more cute !!??

Nandini slowly opened her eyes and mouthed a chocolaty "Good morning Mani" & pecked on his lips.

"Andaar chaale fir??" Manik asked to which Nandini just nodded,eyes closed.She threw her arms upward indicating him to carry her which he did happily.

As soon as they entered everyone came running seeing Nandini in his arms,eyes closed.Cabir was the first one-

"Bunny,, Kya huya Manik usse??"

"Nothing,was in deep slumber toh thora time lagega Madam Ki aankein khulne  mein !!" Manik said & others hived a sign.

Cabir kissed her temple saying "Good Morning munchkin.Wake up you lazy bug"

To which Nandini half opened her eyes and wished him & everyone back with a wide grin.

"Ok!! Buddy we've an important meeting to attend today.The clients are arguing for some clause of the deal.We've to go to meet him" Dhruv said to which The Manik Malhotra smirked and said in his all time business attitude "Malhotra's don't go to meet,People have to come to meet us buddy!! Ask Akhil(manager) to inform them that if it's bothering him then they should come otherwise the will be cancelled" Dhruv nodded in his words.

Manan's Room-

After Manik,Nandini went to have shower when again Manik asked from outside "Bachha,Navya arranged your books of today and I cross checked everything ok!! Kuch extra chaiye kya aaj??"

"Nei,kuch nei bass mera inhaler rakh do Mani yaad sey" Nansini said and Manik's face fell.

The girl who never wants to even smell medicine is asking him to put that in her bag,which means how much it pains when she gets the attacks.Manik's vision became blurry,a lump formed in his throat;the naked truth which they've forget due to the beatific moments they've created came back  to haunt him again that Nandini needs inhaler to breathe normal!!!

"I will make everything perfectly fine just like before Nandini,, it's a promise to myself" Saying this he immidiately cleared his eyes and throat so that Nandini doesn't doubt as he heard the bathroom door opened.

Manik turned and went to her,kissing her forehead he asked "Saab kuch rakh diya hai bachha,, Comb your hair and let's have breakfast"

__________

After having their breakfast with everyone where Manik fed Nandini while talking to Dhruv about business and girls talking about some random topic they scattered to compete their works.

Manik & Cabir dropped Navni and as always after some rants they finally let them go inside to which Nandini ran inside the college.

"Nandini Kya sidhe sey chaal nei sakti??? Everytime running..I'll punish her someday I tell you"

"You'll punish Nandini and I'm Amitabh Bachhan,.Huuhh!!" Abir rolled his eyes and without giving Manik a look,he straight went inside his car and drove off leaving a mouth opened Manik behind.

After recovering, Manik too drove towards his office.

Malhotra's-

Every employee in the office were working or pretended to work as soon as they got the news of Manik sir coming.He's still the monster to the world which he needs to be to run a leading company worldwide.

The ting sound off the lift alerted everyone as the office was in pin drop silence.Not even a sound off breathe as if the employees held back their breathes.

"Good Morning" echoed in the office hall as soon as Manik entered to which he just nodded his head without even looking at them.

"I want Virat in my cabin now!!" He entered in his cabin saying this to his secretary who was stick to him when he he entered office premise.

"Within a minute Sir" saying this Akhil almost ran to bring Virat,the legal advisor of his company.

Someone knocked the door of his cabin when he said "Come in"

"Good Morning Manik" The known voice made him look at the person which bought a smile of relaxation which he expertly hided.

"Ohh!! Thom what a surprise !! I wasn't expecting you this early.Hey! Come,sit" Manik said & Thom smiled.

"I was missing my duty so came back early" Thom said to which Manik smiled at him.

"How was your vacation by the way??" Manik asked as he had sent Thom on a vacation forcefully.

"I didn't enjoy as I said that I love my job around you people..How's Nandini?? I missed that little bird ..." Thom said.Manik knows that how much Thom loves them,especially Nandini as his own child.

Manik's face fell a little as soon as he mentioned about Nandini's health.

"Is there anything I should know Manik"Thom asked doubtfully to which Manik narrated about Nandini's health issue & Thom was shocked to hear.

After discussing something Thom asked Manik whether he could join his duty today to which Manik denied saying He just came today and should take rest.Thom bid bye to Manik when Akhil came with Virat.

"Virat,what is that clause that Mr.Roy is bothering about??"

And they discussed about some business.

College-

After completing the classes & Nandini doing all the naughty things possible it was their lunch time when Nandini went to the washroom followed by Navya.

Nandini after finishing went to the wash basin to wash her face when suddenly her scream oh Manik's name echoed making Navya scarred as hell.

Navya went inside fast and saw Nandini shivering in fear,she was drenched in sweat.She soon as she kept her hand on Nandini's shoulder,she shrieked shouting Manik's name again.Navya got confused when she noticed that Nandini was looking at something particular,Navya followed her gaze & saw it was the mirror where something was written.She closely looked at it -

"Twinkle twinkle little star
I'm your owner you're my star
Here I'm to take you far
Where you'll get only pretty scars"
-To my little goose

(Yeh  Saab mujhse Na hoga  🙈,Maaf kardo iss ghatiya rhyming k liye"

Navya couldn't understand anything of this meaningless poem but Nandini's condition was making her nervous.She called Manik without wasting a second and informed him about Nandini's condition.

"Navya,I'm on my way,,Make her sit somewhere near.Pani pilao usse Navya.Uski inhaler haath mein rakhho & notice if she needs it .. Can you please switch on your speaker ??" Manik said over the phone & Navya did as he said.

"Kya huya hai bachha!!! I'm here right Aur Navya bhi hai tumhare saath kuch nei hoga!! Tabiyaat thik nei lag rahi hai beta baatao!!?? Kya huya hai honey..Achha wait for me baby bass 5 min more" Manik tried to stop her from crying as her helpless sobs were making it difficult from him.

Within few minutes Manik came and rushed towards the place where Navni were.As soon as Nandini saw Manik she hugged him as tight as she could,her death tight grip choked the broad muscular man but he managed.

"Kya huya meri jaan??" Manik asked while caressing her head.

"Manik,,Dad hai yaha..." Nandini could utter this in between the sobs.

Manik's eyes widened where Navya stood still.
