"Koi nahi hai yaha Bachha?? Woh kaha sey ayenge?? Achha lets go home" Manik said and asked Navya to hold Nandini as he is going to bring her stuffs.

"No,please" Nandini's cheeks wobbled as soon as Manik moved a step forward.

"Nandini No !!! I have made you enough strong to cry over this bachha" Manik said sternly raising his eye brows to which Nandini nodded in between tears.

Manik could understand that something was wrong and may be her father is back but he doesn't want to look bothered infront of her cause he knew if he looks tensed she will lock herself up with Manik in the house and wont let any wind pass inside it. He doesn't want that,she can't fall weak,he is with her every second but that doesn't mean she will always relay on him.She has to have the courage to at least think with her piece of mind at any point of situation.

Manik bought her bag not before checking the washroom and what he saw made him confused. A Rhyme !!?? How can Nandini say that it's her father !!?? It could be some pranks done by any student to some other friends of them !! He chuck the thought and went to his car where Navni were waiting.

"Nandini !! Bachha how can you say that it was your dad ??" Manik asked driving the car to Nandini who was sitting in the passenger seat beside him and Navya was in the back seat.

"Dad used to sing this rhyme when i used to hide to escape his tortures.Aur woh mujhe little goose bolte thay kyun Ki mujhe leke mommy ko blackmail karke unhe paise milte thay mommy sey" Nandini said and again sobbed in the last.

Manik's grip on the steering tighten,his jaw clenched hearing about the tortures his father used to do on her.

"Don't cry over those things Nandini,,I won't tolerate a single drop from your eyes on this matter.You trust me right !!? Then let me handle this honey kuch bhi nahi hoga.." Manik said with a straight face to which Nanfini looked at him and reposted her head on his shoulder.

Navya was a silent spectator there ,,seeing them together always brings a peace to her eyes but suffering ...!!!!!

Navya was confused seeing Manik acting like this that too when Nandini is all scared.

They reached mansion where everyone was present as Navya messaged them already.Manik asked Navya to take Nandini inside which she did.While Manik made a call -

"On duty from now on" His voice held extreme rage.With this the Monster is back.

"Within 4 mins" The reply over the phone came to which Manik smirked and gave a devilish smile and hung up the call.

"This is your end Mr.Murthy,,you are finished" He said to himself and went inside to see that 5 members of his family was around Nandini,While Cabir and Alya were by her side.She wanted to cry out of fear but was afraid of Manik and in the process of holding her crying back her already chubby cheeks were getting more puffed. Manik smiled on his own seeing his bundle of cuteness sitting amidst of the worriers.

"Who is crying and why ??" Manik made his entry.

"Main nahi ro rahi Dekho Mani,, yeh toh pehle wale tears hain,Abhi main nahi royi..Alya!!! Yes ,,Alya is crying" Nandini said suddenly blaming Alya who truly was shedding tears.

Manik rolled his eyes asking "Please enlighten me with the reason of your crying Alya??"

"Nandini was so scared that's why I cried!!!" Alya said while sniffing.

Like seriously!!!

Was that even a reason to cry !!!

Then,, Girls don't need reasons to cry!!!

Ooppss!! Sorry Girls !!! Actually It would be ALYA doesn't need any reason to cry !!!!

"Nandini into your room now and change karke come back,, it's lunch time already" Manik said to which Nandini looked at him horrified with the mention of her going alone.

"Manik dad leke jayenge mujhe !!!" Nandini couldn't hold back now and she cried out holding Cabir's hand.

"No one I said no one has the guts to even think about taking you away from me get that clear in your head Nandini!! If any dared to I will rip off his head from his body!!!" The anger,rage Manik was holding back flashed with Nandini's words.Cabir saw Nandini's grip on him loosened and he smiled.

Nandini trusts Manik with all her entity but She trusts this Manik a little more.She very well knows this Manik will lit the entire world even if he only heard that somethings wrong gonna happen.

She quietly stood up and went towards their room to change.Manik sighed and ruffled his thick mane roughly with his long fingers.

Cabir patted his shoulder "What's the plan now??"

"There's no plan Cabir!! But this time it's his last .." Manik said determined looking at nowhere.

"Uss kamine ki main aisi haal karunga ki baat karne k layek nahi rahega" Mukti said gritting her teeth.

"Manik what's with behaviour of yours with Nandu?? She is very scared Aur tum aisa karoge toh woh daar jayegi Aur" Navya said to which Cabir,Manik and Mukti smiled.

"Manik Tu bhi jaake change Karle as we know k you won't go office now!!" Dhruv said.

Manik went from there leaving Fav4 and Navya.

"Care to explain ??" Navya asked them seriously.

"Navya kuch Nahi hoga Nandini ko,,hum Sab haina uske saath,,Manik hai Na!! She's sacred now,ismain Manik agar aur worried hoga Aur usse pyaar sey chao karane ki kosish karega toh it will worst her situation.Woh bohot zyada darr jaati hai,, uski har situation Ki reactions Manik sey related hai,if she sees Manik is worried about any problem toh fir woh aur zyada ghabra jaati hai but agar she notices that Manik is confident enough toh woh apne aap hi khudh bhi thora strong Ho jaati hai!!! Tumhe Kya lagta hai Manik isn't worried about it??? He is Navya,more than Nandini but keeping her in mind he is acting all effectless." Cabir said and Navya's face was worth watching.

She was smiling,and was crying,her mouth hung open. Only few words left from her mouth "Nandini is lucky"

Manan's Room-

Manik was noticing Nandini's every move,her hands were shaking..She's stumbling every now n then with something or the other.As she stumbled she stealthily looks at Manik if he saw her or not,Manik was noticing but didn't let her know.Finally having enough Manik held her shivering hand when she was trying to change her ear ring.

Nandini looked at him helplessly and hugged him tight sobbing "Manik he will torture me,,it pains a lot!! I can't bare all those things again ,, I won't go anywhere.Woh mujhe Nahi ley jayega na!!?"

Manik's grip tightens on her,few tears escaped from his eyes which he rubbed off "Kuch Nahi hoga Nandini tumhe,,Kissi Ki himmat nahi hai tumhe chooney ki bhi... Main hoon Na ??!! And you can't be weak Nandini,,agar you'll show yourself a weak one fir tho people will take that advantage Na baba!!?? Aur tumhe kis baat ka darr hai?? Your Manik is here,Cabir bhai hai,Mukti hai,Dhruv bhi toh hai,, Aur Alya and Navya bhi hai Na ?? Fir??"

Nandini smiled and said "Haan,,Mukti will punch him Aur Bhai unhe kidnap kar lenge phir khana Nahi denge Aur Navya and Alya will beat him with their heels and chappals.Fir police ayegi toh Mera Manik hai Na !!! Saabko bacha lega Aur police unhe leke bhi jayenge "

Nandini told her full proof plan to Manik to which Manik chuckled and kissed her temple saying "As you say my princess"..

And they stayed like that until Alya came to call them for lunch.

"There is no greater danger than underestimating your enemies "
