The day they met..their heart froze..their breath caught in their throat..right from the start..they knew that they found a home for their heart..he was shy..she was cheerful..he was bad in expressing..she lives happily..but time brought a immense change..she lost in the dark world..and he came as her savior..

He held her..but she wasn't brave...she was afraid to fall..how can she loves him..when she was broken?..how can she love him when she was in pain?..but watching him stand alone..all her doubts suddenly goes away somehow..and she fall irrevocably in love with him..but the story didn't ended there..she ran out leaving all her happiness behind ..she left him broken..and even she was in pain..

Time brought them close again..they had died every day waiting for one another..but the love was still blooming inside their hearts..they had loved each other ..and still do..they came face to face..Time stands still..beauty was standing in front of him..he had questions..but her eyes were blank..she was in enormous pain..so he decided to be brave..he decided he won't let anything take away her from him..every breath of his wanted to mingle up with her..every second was waiting for their union..and they won..their love won..they met again..they came close..they tied nuptial knots and booked each other for the rest of 7 seven births..

After 1 year of their happily married life..they both are standing in their lobby..

"Kya soch rahi ho?"..he asked while standing behind her ...his chin was on her shoulder..while his hands were securely wrapped around her belly..she was smiling all this while looking at the stars..

Nandini : "Yehe! that life is so unpredictable.. we can never predict ...even if we try then also we are going to fail.."...she told him in her beautiful charming tone..he smiled and dropped a kiss on her shoulder which made her close her eyes in anticipation..even after 1 years of marriage his little touch affects her the same way ..how it affected her the very first night of their..

Manik : "predicting upcoming events is like loosing the fun of enjoying the chocolates sprinkled on ice cream.."..he explained her in the very unique way on which she smiled..

Nandini : "sometimes you sounds like me.."..she said with a sweet chuckle which made him smile as well..he made her turn around and wrapped his hands around her back...and she encircled her arms around his neck..both got lost in each others eyes..

Manik : "you know i can spend rest of my life standing like this..looking deep in your eyes..inhaling your fragrance.."...he told her looking straight in her eyes which made her feel blessed..

Nandini : "what good i did to have you?..how he showered this much happiness on me?..i can't even thank him in words Manik for sending you in my life..i just can't.."....she said while holding only love..happiness..respect in her eyes..

Manik : "hmmm! flattering ho rahi hai?..seems like my princess is in mood today..."...he said playfully to lighten her mood and it worked ..she smiled and looked downwards..

After a small silence..she looked at him while he was still staring at her..like a small boy watching some magic...she made a confused expression and with eyes she asked what?..but he smiled and nodded nothing..

Nandini : "ese kyu dekh rahe ho?.."..she asked and now he smiled weakly..

Manik : "i was just thinking..what if that day ..you hadn't held my hand?..what if you had not chosen me?.."...he asked while having some traces of fear ..and she smiled..

Nandini : "Manik! you were never in option..because you always holds priority..us din bhi...you were my priority..."...she told him with a smile..which made all his fear goes out of window..and they both started drowning in the dramatic situation of their life 1 years ago...

(FLASHBACK)

After marriage they both decided to go Delhi..to meet Cabir and Navya instantly while Nandini was dying to meet them both ..but before they both left Pune..Nandini thanked meera aunty and bid bye to all the NGO workers..everyone sent their good wishes with them..

Manik rang the bell of Mannat villa ..Nandini was bit nervous and hell worried..firstly she left without saying anything..and now she came back that too after marrying ..her heart was thumping faster..she was only thinking how to face Cabir..will hr understands her or he will be angry??.. will he hug her or move back??.. will he call her Mannat or not??.. so many questions were rising but she had no answer.. Manik noticed her restlessness so he held her hand and she instantly looked at him..he blinked his eyes ..and she smiled ..

He rang the bell again..and this time Navya opened the door..she smiled weakly after looking at Manik..but when she fully opened the door..she was shocked ..surprised to find Nandini there..

Navya : "mannat!".. she said in shocked while their eyes Welled up with tears and before Nandini could say anything..she was in peaceful embrace.. before even she react..she was in a tight hug..It took only a milli second to recognize that alluring touch..

Nandini : "Bhai!".. she said after reciprocating the hug..while Cabir tighten the hold even more.. whereas Navya and Manik were silent spectator to all this ..

When Navya had opened the door..Cabir was in the hall only..and as soon as he saw Nandini's face..he ran towards her and in other second..she was in his protective embrace..

Cabir : " kaha chali gayi thi tu??.. kyu chali gayi thi??.. tujhe pata hai Mai kese raha hoon tere bina..bol Na mannat ..kyu gayi thi tu apne Bhai ko chorke??".. tears were falling out of his eyes ..and she was sobbing badly ..he too was weeping with her while Navya and Manik were too in tears..he side hugged Navya ..and Navya after placing her head on his shoulder..cried silently..

Nandini : "please forgive me Bhai..am really sorry..".. she said while crying..and he caressed her head like a father ..he consoled her like a brother..

Cabir : "shhhh ..chup ho ja ..I can't stand your tears..shant ho ja please..".. he consoled her while she was incoherently crying in his arms..

Manik : "Cabir .. Hume kuch batana hai tumhe..".. he said with seriousness in his tone and this made Cabir puzzled..he broke the hug and looked at Manik for answers..

*****

They were sitting on the sofa ...and till now Cabir came to know about MaNan's wedding..

Manik : "am sorry ..we should have involve you.. but...".. he tried to reason him as Cabir was all silent..while Navya was little angry on both of them..

Navya : "but kya Manik..how you both can be so childish??.. so irresponsible??..".. she scold them both while Nandini's eyes were stick only on Cabir who was sitting in front of them And was all quiet..

Nandini : "bhai kuch boliye please.."...she asked in her low tone..which made cabir look at her while Navya and Manik too observed him..

Cabir : "shaadi toh tum dono kar chuke ho..bolne ke liye kuch chora he nahi tum dono ne.."..he answered sternly and stood up..which left all of them shocked..it's the very first time he talked so roughly..that too with Nandini ..whom he consider his life..

Manik : "Cabir hum ....."..he tried to intervene but Cabir showed his hand which made Manik quiet..he then looked at Nandini who had tears in her eyes.. 

Cabir : "my consent won't make any difference and so as your explanations.."..he said looking at Manik and Navya too was hurt but Cabir's reaction was indigestible to her..

Nandini : "bhai ..it does make difference.."..she answered looking at him while tears escaped out of her eyes..and Cabir now looked at her..

Cabir : "really?..so whatever i say.. you will follow?"..he asked on which Nandini nodded her head instantly while Navya and Manik were clueless from Cabir's intentions..

Cabir : "theek hai then..leave Manik..break this marriage.. I don't accept this marriage.."..he said very casually and this made all of them shocked to hell..while MaNan were horrified..

Manik : "how can you say that Cabir?.."..he asked instantly ..

Navya : "hum mante hai Cabir..in dono ko shaadi nahi karni chahiye thi..par aap jo keh rahe hai woh galat hai..they both are married.. Manik loves her...."...she tried to give him some brain..but seems like his bucket is totally full..

Cabir : "and what about Mannat?..does she loves him?..did she confessed?..i think no!"...he said looking first to Navya and then at Manik..while Nandini was so numb to react..

Manik : "she didn't ..but that doesn't mean she don't loves me.."..he tried to justify but Cabir was adamant today..

Cabir : "her silence is your answer Manik..so Mannat tell him you are breaking this marriage..mai papers arrange karta hoon.."..he said and started walking towards his room..Manik was shockingly looking at silent Nandini..by each passing second..he was loosing..while she was stuck badly..

Nandini : "bhai!"..she called him from back..and he stopped right on his spot..he turned around to look at her..and she held manik's hand..entwined their fingers which made Manik speechless..she looked straight in Manik's eyes..there was only honesty and true feelings..

Nandini : "I LOVE MANIK ..I LOVE HIM A LOT..HUMESHA!"...  she said looking into his eyes and her confession had that intensity which actually gave him goosebumps all over..they both got drown in each other's eyes..their intense eye lock broke by cabir's voice..

Cabir : "I wanted to listen this only.."...he stated and came towards them..they all were confused...so he explained..that he placed this condition just to make Nandini confess and accept Manik wholeheartedly in front of all..this made MaNan teary..they hugged him tightly..and Cabir reciprocate with equal fervor..

******

It's been One month.. MaNan are happily married..after cabir accepted them..Manik's parents too accepted them..and henceforth they both got married again in front of whole society ..and now living together..like a happy family..

Manik : "Han Nikhil?..Aryaman mila?.."..he asked after answering the call..Since last one month Aryaman is lost..he was in Cape town earlier but after arrest warrant he isn't there..which made manik more angry..and since then they are trying to locate Aryaman..

Nikhil : "yes! we found him.."..he told him..and this boiled Manik's anger more..

Manik : "am coming Cape town.. I want to kill him by my own hands..,"..he said fuming in anger..

Nikhil : "it isn't possible Manik.."...he told him which made Manik more confuse..

Manik : "but kyu?.."..he asked confusingly..

Nikhil : "because he is already dead..he met a very ghastly accident..we didn't found any complete body part of his..all his body parts was scattered all over the road..it was that horrible.."...he told him and Manik didn't felt bad..because somewhere he understood that Aryaman deserved even more worse than this..

Karma! it always took toll from you..Karma! follows you wherever you go..no matter what..but Karma! is definitely going to ruin your existence ..because crushing a pure and beautiful soul is a sin ..even by law of universe..such kind of sin has no forgiveness ..after committing such heinous crime you can't sit peacefully at your home..

Manik : "I have only one regret that I wasn't able to kill him by my own hands.."..he told him on which Nikhil smiled a bit..and after thanking Nikhil Manik hung up the phone..

(flashback end)

Nandini : "I love you Mr. Malhotra.."...she said with a huge smile on her face..

Manik : "I love you too Mrs. Malhotra.."...he confessed with a bright smile..they both hugged each other ..and screen freezes on their peaceful face..
