In the morning Manik was the first one to open his eyes first. He holds his head with his one hand as his head was paining a lot. He tried to get up but then feel something. His eyes fall on Nandani who was sleeping on his one hand, her hand was on Manik's heart.

Witnessing this, a beautiful smile came on Manik's lips he forgot his headache. Now the only thing that mattered to him was that Nandani is there with him!!

He didn't make any movement and was still watching Nandani sleeping peacefully. He looked towards the surrounding and got to know that he was in Nandani's room... Then only a question popped in his head "How did I end up here?"...

"After dinner Soha had asked us for drink... Then after drink I left for my room... Than how did I end up here?" thought Manik trying to remember...

"Whatever may be the reason but it had made my morning beautiful..." thought Manik smilingly looking towards Nandani...

"But one second what had happened last night, why I am not remembering anything? Hopefully I haven't done anything which would have hurt Nandani more... " thought Manik worriedly..

Than only he saw Nandani moving, he immediately closed his eyes and pretended that he is sleeping. Nandani opened her eyes then realising her position she at once sit straight. Seeing herself on bed she said "how did I land up on bed?"... Nandani looked towards Manik who pretended that he is sleeping...

"Obviously Manik would have done this" she said and get up from the bed. She take her dress and went in washroom to get ready... Manik opened his eyes slowly and said "I think so she is angry on me... Pakka I have done something last night... Now what would I do?"

He got up from the bed and left for his room to avoid Nandani. He gulped a pain killer and went to become ready... While he was taking a shower he remembered something...

"Manik you would leave me for Soha?"

Soha? How did Soha come into the picture?

One second, why did Nandani said like this last night, do she believe that I would leave her for Soha?

"What did I said after this? Why I am not remembering anything about last night?" said Manik holding his head in frustration....

After few hours

There was a knock on Manik's door, Manik opened it and saw Soha standing there...

"Soha I was coming in your room only" said Manik...

"Really Manik!!! But Manik where were you last night?" asked Soha...

"Excuse me Soha? Do I tell you about my whereabouts?" asked Manik...

"No Manik I was just asking as you were not there in your room so" said Soha correcting herself...

"So?" said Manik...

"Manik don't you remember anything about last night?" asked Soha curiously...

"No I don't remember but should I?" asked Manik...

"Manik last night you were with Nandani" said Soha stressing word Nandani...

"Acha" said Manik giving her a smile...

"Why are you smiling Manik? You don't know but Nandani had spiked your drink and last night she tried to take your advantage..." said Soha...

Manik chuckled on this and said "from all the girls I knew Nandani is not one of them who would do such work and she don't need to take my advantage I am hers only..."

Soha got pissed up and said "you don't know her intentions Manik"...

Manik made a serious face and said "Wait Soha! We would do this discussion in front of everyone"...

"Everyone?" asked Soha in confusion...

"Come you would see yourself" said Manik and bring her in Nandani's room... Soha saw Nandani and Aryaman and made a face thinking "what are they doing here?".

"Manik why are we here?" asked Soha...

"Aree uh were talking about some intentions na, go ahead" said Manik so calmly...

"Manik this Nandani na" was saying Soha but Manik cut her in and said "Soha see there is one more guest, let her speak first!!"

Soha turns to see who is there and the colour of her face had fade down to see that hotel staff whom she had paid for the last night arrangements. "Manik what is going here?" said Soha fidgeting her fingers...

"You would get to know that Soha just wait for few minutes" said Manik very calmly and then turning towards that staff Manik said "Say what you want to speak"...

"Sir this ma'am *pointing towards Soha* had asked me to don't let anyone disturb or enter in room 306 and if anyone would ask about it why so then she ask to me to say that Manik had asked me to do so because he is doing something very important she had asked me to lock the door from outside and then in morning time I have to open the lock of this room and asked the girl in this room that the person staying in Room 306 needs her help its emergency..." said the hotel staff in one go...

"Hey when did I say this?" said Soha shouting..

While Nandani and Aryaman were quietly seeing the drama. "Ma'am I have said earlier also if my job would be in problem than I would reveal all this." said the staff...

"Manik she is lying, she is trying to trap me *turning towards Nandani* this all would be Nandani's plan." said Soha panicking...

"Soha let her complete, *looking towards staff* what more Soha had said?" asked Aryaman...

"Sir, I have said no to this work but then ma'am said that Manik sir would not able to pinpoint me as he would be in shock himself that what he had done and he would blame everything on himself so no one would point out ever that all this was planned by her." said the staff... Listening this Soha started thinking a way to come out from this situation...

Whereas Manik tightened his fist listening this and said "you can leave"...

Soha started clapping her hands and started laughing... "What a plan Nandani!! You put all your blame on me, great!!! Aren't you getting satisfied by Aryaman that you need Manik also" was saying Soha...

But Manik hold her arm ferociously and turned her such that now she was facing him and then slapped her tight...

"Not a single word for Nandani now!!!" said Manik in a high pitch...

"Manik you don't know her she is" was saying Soha but Manik shouted "I said just shut up"...

"How could you stoop so low Soha? You tried such desperate attempt and what do you have thought that then you can takeNandani's place." said Manik...

"Manik" was saying Soha but Manik cut her "Speak truth only Soha as I got to knew your both failed attempts!!!"

Flashback

After Manik got ready he left for Aryaman's room.. He knocked his door and in a minute Aryaman opened the door... Seeing Manik Aryaman gave a smile to him and asked "How are you feeling now?"

"I am better Aryaman... But I want to know what had happened last night?" asked Manik...

" What had happened last night?" asked Aryaman confusingly...

"I mean do you know how I land up in Nandani's room and if I have hurt Nandani again?" asked Manik scratching his neck...

Aryaman smirked and asked "how would I know that?"

"Aryaman I remember little bit and you were there as far as I could remember.." said Manik...

Aryaman chuckled and said "about have you hurt Nandani again or not? This ques can be answer by Nandani only... But Manik don't you think first you should stress on the question that why don't you remember anything?"

"Yeah I also don't know that, I have control over drinks than why just in one drink I have lost all my control, may be that drink was spiked" said Manik...

"Bingo!! Now you are there on the point" said Aryaman...

"Aryaman did Soha had asked for my whereabouts last night?" asked Manik curiously...

"Yeah she was too desperate for you, seems like her some stupid plan got flopped" said Aryaman...

"That drink was spiked by Soha this is clear... But why? Was she planning to take advantage of my state?" said Manik gritting his teeth...

"Offcourse buddy that would be the only reason... I don't know what is going in between you and Soha, may be just because you are not giving her the attention so she had thought of this way and I could predict her motive was to hurt Nandani mentally." Said Aryaman...

"What the hell is her problem with Nandani? Now I really doubt that shot may be that was her plan only to hurt Nandani..." said Manik...

"One min.... Which shot?" asked Aryaman curiously...

"Umm.. sorry Aryaman" said Manik scratching his neck and continued "actually that day when we have left for Trift bridge, I and Nandani were rolled down from the mountains." said Manik...

"Yeah I know that.. But why are you referring this now?" asked Aryaman..

"That day someone had tried to shot Nandani" said Manik...

"What?" said Aryaman getting shocked...

"I had seen them targeting Nandani not once but for twice... Their first bullet got missed so they fired another bullet and I just pulled Nandani in order to save her but it resulted that we both rolled down." said Manik...

"Itna kuch ho gya and you guys didn't told me about all this." Said Aryaman getting hurt...

"I am sorry Aryaman... I have asked Nandani to not tell about all this to anyone.. Even Nandani didn't have an idea about this, she didn't know that accident was planned.." said Manik furiously...

"You think Soha is behind that plan?" asked Aryaman...

"No I don't think like that, now I have a solid feeling that was Soha plan... The next day when we reached hotel Soha was shocked to see Nandani like she was not expecting her to be back..." said Manik...

"One more thing Manik that day while I was waiting for uh both, Soha was the one who said that she had seen that Nandani had left earlier and when I intrigued more then she said Manik is also not here and they both have left together..." said Aryaman...

"Because she didn't have an idea that I was with Nandani. She wanted you too left so that no one would be there for helping out Nandani..." said Manik...

"Is that girl crazy? She could go to this extent, I haven't thought about this... She could be dangerous for Nandani" said Aryaman worriedly...

"I wouldn't let her do anything more Aryaman" said Manik...

Than Aryaman told him about last night fake fire alarm and said that "it would be only possible if she had involved any staff with her, we have to find this out ."

After further investigation they came to know about the hotel staff who  admit all on his own.

Manik and Aryaman planned to make Soha accept all her deeds.

Flashback ends

"Okay than! Yes, that was my attempt to come closer to you... I have spiked your drink.. I wanted Nandani to see both of us together so that she would be hurt" said Soha...

"I have warned her Manik not to come in my way but this girl always tried to cross my path. She tried to snatch you from me. First she married you, you tell me Manik I was there before this girl came in your life. But you married her not me, why? What is so special in this girl that is not in me? Say?" said Soha glaring Manik...

"Nandani had never came in your path, the marriage decision was mine. She was not having a slight bit of idea that I am a playboy otherwise she wouldn't have married me. Nandani is special indeed Soha but you can never understand this!!!" said Manik...

"I don't want to understand that" said Soha glaring Nandani...

"That shot was also planned by you to hurt Nandani?" asked Manik...

Now it was shocking for Nandani which shot which plan are they talking about....

Soha laughed and said "It was not for hurting her Manik, I simply wanted her to kill.. I have tried to give her a peaceful death but no you saved her there... Then I thought to broke her mentally first so I thought last night but again you were not in your room... This all is because of her, I would not leave her Manik I would kill her..." said Soha with a dangerous face...

Nandani was too shocked to react on this, she didn't had an idea that Soha could go to this extent...

Whereas as soon as Soha completed, Manik gripped her neck tightly and said "I would kill you right now Soha so that you can't thought of any other evil plans more"...

Nandani and Aryaman shouted "Manik"... They tried to make his grip loose but Manik's anger had reached to its peak he tightened his grip more causing Soha choking out of breath...

"Manik chodo usse, she would die" said Nandani...

"Let her die Nandani" said Manik in anger mode...

"Manik Malhotra I said just leave her" shouted Nandani in high pitch tone diverting Manik's attention from Soha to her...

Manik looked towards Nandani and saw her glaring him... He leave Soha in frustration... Then only Inspectors reached there whom Aryaman have called to arrest Soha claiming that she attempted to murder Nandani...

"This is the recording she had accepted on her own that she had tried to kill Nandani" said Aryaman giving them the recording...

"We need a person for doing all the formalities" said the Inspector..

"I am coming" said the Aryaman to Nandani and Manik and left with a constable...

While the lady inspector tried to arrest Soha, Soha in a swift move take out her gun and pointed towards Nandani...

This was all done in a swift that no one got a chance to do anything.. Nandani was too in shocked state, she had not expected this to be coming..

"You have to die Nandani!!" said Soha triggering the gun... Manik was also in shocked he too haven't expected this.

"Dare you to touch her Soha..." said Manik with a death warning tone...

"She had to go Manik, once she would be gone you would be mine" said Soha smirking wickedly...

"I was never yours.. Why can't you understand such a small thing?" said Manik trying to divert her attention...

The inspector tried to take a move but Soha shouted "don't move otherwise I would shoot her"...

"Soha put the gun down" said Manik very calmly...

In return Soha smirked and trigger the gun saying "bye bye Nandani"...

"Nandani" shouted Manik....

---------------------------------------

How's the part?

Soha's chapter going to end in next part... Story would now be focussed on Manan but Aryaman would be there. Those who don't love him sorry but I can't end his chapter..

Most of you have guessed almost to the point about Manik's reaction... But there is a question left do Manik remember last night or no? You would come to know that in next chapter!!
