Singhania mansion

Manan slightly cried in each other's arms while sitting on the bench...manik slowly wiped her tears and tried to cup her cheeks but she was not ready to break the hug....he sighed and let her be so...she felt peace after sometime and slowly broke the hug....he cupped her face and slowly rubbed her cheeks...

Manik:shhh !!! Bacha...veebha ko acha nahin lagega if you cry at this place where you both had most memorable moments.... don't cry !! She loves you so much....aur...humare paas aarav hai na...(nandu nodded in yes)phir ?? Usne issliye aarav ko tujhe diya na...so that you can be his mother like she was yours...aur..aisa kyun bol rahi ho ki whom will you ask whenever you wish to get pampered and want someone to feed you...main hoon na...kya main tera kuch nahin ??

Nandu:nahin manii !!! Tum ho mere liye...bas...maa ka pyaar alag tha na...issliye...(wiping her tears)I will not cry anymore...

Manik(kissing her forehead): That's like my bachha !!! Chaloo...we will go there...when I didn't find you there I came in search of you as I know you don't know anyone here...I am sorryy !!! Mujhe tumhe yaha nahin le aana chahiye tha !!

Nandu:Nahin !! Nahin !! You know na I need to be here... it's ok !! Waise bhi I am not willing to come from tomorrow as I am feeling sick of these people !! Tum jao ab...I will be here for sometime...

Manik nodded in agreement and left after kissing her forehead...nandu settled back and started to observe people around her when she felt a warm hand on her hand...she turned around to find who which drained blood from her veins...she is not afraid but just shocked to see veebha sitting right beside her...slowly tears started to flow from her eyes.... veebha raised her hands and wiped them nodding in no !!

Veebha: mera bachaa !!! Aap kyun ro rahi hai ?? Kisne kaha aapse ki main nahin rahungi whenever you miss me ?? Ofcourse I will be...main kabhi apni beti ko chodhke jaa sakti hoon ?? (Nandu nodded in no)then ?? Aur yeh kya baat hui ?? Main toh soch rahi thi ki you will give some brain to this idiot manik....kitni aasani se bach gaya from making a promise...yeh god bhi na...iska side le rahe hai...but can he be on his side for more time avoiding my doll cute pouts and pleads ??(nandu giggled and nodded in no) hahah !! See ..so...what we need to do is make this stupid man realise that he loves you and will be beaten to shit by me if at all he let you marry someone because that will automatically mean his death that is near me....aur haan...I am watching your every step..you better start working coz I am dying to come back....(nandu frowned and looked at her with confusion) arree !!! I want to come back to you as your daughter...will you be my parents and take care of me the way I wished in previous life ??

Nandu had tears in her life and nodded in yes...veebha smiled at her and caressed her hair...suddenly nandu saw her blurry...she got confused but soon realized why so as she saw aryamann sitting on her other side and shaking her to get her out of her trance....she nodded at arya and turned back to veebha who winked at her before fading away...nandu smirked knowing what she means.....

2 hours later

Manik bid bye to all and started to walk to his car...few minutes back they had their lunch and cavya left to airport while mukbhi too left for office....manik was talking with few clients....he went to call nandu for lunch but couldn't find her....he made her a call and got to know that she left for home as she was not feeling to eat....he felt relieved as harshad was present there...though nandu don't know him yet he can't risk with him as he is the famous womanizer anyone will know.... that's the reason veebha hid it from him as she believed that his character was spoiled by his haters....he soon left to manan villa as he was free for the day and wished to spend entire time with aarav and nandu... somewhere he too knew that he accepted them as his small family and he is unable to stop this urge...

Manan villa

Manik entered inside and reached his room as cot is yet in his room only...he found aarav playing on his own with toys attached to his cot and was so happy...manik loved the sight....he couldn't find nandu around and thought that she was in washroom as nandu will never be away from aarav for even a minute....he waited few minutes but she was not visible anywhere...he slowly moved to balcony and made a call to her but no one received it...he got scared a bit and moved out to ask thai...

Manik(shouting):Thaiii !!! Thaiii !!!

Thai(running out of kitchen):haan manik !!!

Manik:nandu kaha hai ??

Thai(frowning): nandu toh subah aapke saath hi bahar gayi thi..abhi tak aayi nahin !!

Manik:parr...teekhe !! Aap kaam kijiye !!

Manik quietly went inside his room and called nandu's security to know about her whereabouts....

Security:Yes sirr !!!

Manik:where is nandu ??

Security:mam is with Mr.aryamann in taj !! Shall I inform her ??

Manik:No !! Just stick around and be sharp !!

Security: yes sirr !!

Manik tossed his phone on bed and settled with aarav in his lap...he observed how he stayed unaffected with all the happenings around him....he smiled knowing how peaceful it is for babies as they are just lost in their own world full of fun all the time....no care of the world....

Manik: pata hain Aarav !! Aaj tak kabhi aisa nahi hua ki nandu ne mujhe inform kiye bagair kahi gayi hai....but aaj hua...pehli baar...and I have a feeling that this is gonna repeat more often now...huh !! Ofcourse !! Main bhi kya soch raha hoon ?? Agar un dono ki shaadi karunga toh ofcourse woh mujhe har baat nahin batayegi...infact....woh iss ghar mein bhi nahin rahegi....righttt !!! Woh toh....iss..ghar mein bhi...n...a...hin...rahegi.... Maine yeh kyun nahin socha ???

Aarav held manik's finger which was placed on his tummy and started playing with it which successfully diverted his attention...but...that was not enough !! He knew that...yet...he choose to let that matter go for little time !!!

Guyss !!! I am trying to manage as much as I can in time present...hope you guys enjoy!!
