Manik with a smile came out of the room. But What he saw made him gulp up his saliva. The colour of his face became pale. He was very scared. For the first time Manik Malhotra was scared. It's not a little thing.

For him now the most scary thing was Aryaman Murty. Arya was in his room. Suddenly he heard Nandini's shout. So he came to check. He was going to entered inside her room. But Manik's bad luck he came out of the room that time only. Arya crossed his hand around his chest.

Arya (with cold tone):- What are you doing here?

Manik looked down. He was finding a excuse. But not at all able to find a nice excuse.😂😂

Arya(loudly):- I'm asking you something what are you doing here?

Manik:- Woh I....

Arya:- You what?

Manik:- Woh I....

Arya hold Manik's coller.

Arya:- You bastard what are you doing this late night in my sister's room? I warned you before, stay away from my family.

Manik was quiet. Arya rose his hand and punched Manik. Manik fall on the floor. Arya again made him stood up.

Arya:- What are you doing in her room?

Nandini after changing she came out of the room and saw Arya was holding Manik's coller. Arya was going to punch again but she reached on time.

Nandini:- Bhaiya(brother) what are you doing? Leave him.

Arya:- Nandu tu hat ja.( Nandini leave from here.)

Nandini jerked Arya from Manik and stood in front of Manik covering him.

Nandini:- No, why you are beating him?

Arya:- What he was doing in your room at this time?

Nandini:- Woh bhaiya(brother) I saw a mouse in my room. So, I started shouting. Hearing my shout he came to cheak on me. You are taking it all wrong.

After listening Nandini, Arya became quite. But he didn't believe it fully. Just left from there. Nandini turned towards Manik. Manik was looking at her only. His corner of lips was bleeding. Nandini hold his hand.

Nandini:- Aao mere sath. ( come with Me)

Nandini took him to her room. Made him sat on her bed and start cleaning his wound.

Nandini:- Why were you quite that time?

Manik:- I had nothing to say.

Nandini:- Apne apko tho bacha sakte the. You should have fight back. ( You should have save yourself. You should have fight back.)

Manik:- How can I fight with him! He is your brother.

Nandini stopped the work and looked into Manik's eyes. He just didn't fight back because he was her brother. Nandini then finished the dressing.

Nandini:- Ho gaya. Ab jao Jake so jao. ( It's done. Now go to sleep.)

Manik stood up and was going to leave but stop at the door.

Manik:- Can I ask you something Nandini?

Nandini nod her head.

Manik:- Why you lied to your brother? Why you saved me?

Nandini have no answer from this question. She looked here there.

Nandini:- Manik bohot rat ho gaya hai so jao. ( Manik it's late night, go to sleep.)

Manik didn't asked it again and left the room. Because he know what the answer was. Nandini laid down on the bed and started thinking about Manik's question. She fall asleep.

Next morning it's was Sunday all men in house was home only. It's breakfast time all were doing breakfast including Manik also. He was silent today. Arya was glancing at him. He was like a good boy doing his breakfast.

Nandini came downstairs with her doctor coat and stethoscope. She sat beside Arya. All looking at her. Nandini saw this.

Nandini:- What? Ap sab mujhe yese kyu dekh rahe ho? ( What? Why are you all looking at me like this?)

Abhi:- Aj Sunday hai Nandu. ( Today is Sunday Nandu.)

Nandini:- I know.

Arya:- Sunday family time hoti hai. ( Sunday is family time.)

Nandini:- I know.

Yeash:- Tho pir hospital kyu ja rahi ho? ( Then why are you going to hospital?)

Nandini:- Dad aj ek surgery hai. Mai bas wohhi katam kar ke, lunch ke pehle a jayuggi. ( Dad today I have a surgery. After finishing it, I will be home before lunch.)

Vandita:- Are koi nahi beta. Responsibility comes first. Hum sab next Sunday ko family time spend kar legge. ( it's totally fine dear. Responsibility comes first. We will spend family time next Sunday together.)

Abhi:- Haan yeh bariya hai. Then Manik chal aj tu or mai ghumne jayegge. ( Yeah it will be good. Then Manik let's go, today you and me will roam around.)

Manik:- That's nice.

Abhi:- Arya tu bhi chalega humare sath? ( Arya will you come with us?)

Listening Arya's name Manik gulped up his saliva. He didn't want Arya not to came with them.

Arya:- Nah bhai mujhe nahi Jana. Bohot din ho gaya hai, dosto ke sath mila nahi. Soch raha hu aj millu sabke sath. ( no brother I don't want to go. Its been while, I didn't meet my friends. I was thinking to meet them today.)

Vandita:- Lo jese hi ek ko kam agaya baki sabki planning bhi ho gayi. Hum kya kare pir? ( See as soon as one gets work, the rest is planned as well. Then what should we do?)

Nandini:- Mom ap or dad orphanage jake ao. Iss month ka donation bhi baki hai. ( Mom and Dad you should go to orphanage. The donation of this month is also pending.)

Yeash:- That's good idea.

Nandini stood up from her sit.

Nandini:- Mera ho gaya. Mai chalti hu.( I am done. I should leave.)

Arya:- Aree ruk tu. Mai bhi abhi bahar ja raha hu, chal tujhe drop kar dugga.( Hey wait. I am going out now, let's go I will drop you.)

Nandini:- OK then. Bye mom dad. Bye bhai(brother).

Nandini and Arya left. Manik was upset Nandini was totally ignored him. She didn't wish him good morning and bye. She didn't even looked at him once at the breakfast table.

Abhi:- Mera bhi ho gaya. Chal Manik ready ho ja. ( I am also fine. Let's Manik get ready.)

Manik:- Tik hai. (OK)

Then Abhi and Manik got ready. Then went for Mumbai tour. Yeash and Vandita went to orphanage.

(Guys I don't know anything about Mumbai's famous place. So I'm escaping this)

It's 1pm now. Nandini came back home. She went to her room. After fresh up she went downstairs. She looked around but didn't spot any of family member.

Nandini:- Kaka!?

One servant came to her quickly.

Servant:- Ji betiya. ( Yes dear.)

Servant:- Ji tik hai. ( OK)

Nandini went to her room.

Nandini:- Kya yaar koi bhi ghar pe nahi hai. Mai bore ho jayuggi. ( What yaar nobody is at home. I will get bore.)

She sat on the bed. Servant came and gave her lunch. Nandini went to her balcony with her laptop and lunch. She sat on chair and keep them on table. Play some movie on laptop and started having her lunch. (Sometimes I did this 😜😜) After having lunch she came into room. She thought to get some sleep. She was little tried also. She laid down on the bed.

Nandini (in mind):- Don't know what is Manik doing now. God this boy is so stubborn. He is not understanding what will happen when my family will get to know about Manik's real intention coming to this house. Please God take care of everything. I don't want anymore trouble in my life.

Nandini then fall asleep. Around 3 pm Abhi and Manik entered into house laughing.

Manik:- God that was really fun yaar. I enjoyed it after so long.

Abhi:- Yup me too.

Servant:- Ji baba. (yes dear.)

Abhi:- Mom, dad, Arya nahi aye abhi tak? (Mom, Dad, Arya still didn't came home?)

Servant:- Ji nahi. (No)

Abhi:- Ok I'm so tried yaar. Need shower.

Manik just nod his head. He was very calmly shipping water. Abhi went to his room. Manik quickly kept the glass on the table went towards Nandini's room. The room of her room was not close. He looked inside and saw Nandini was sleeping peacefully.

Manik smiled and open the door, came inside. He was admiring her. He sat beside her on the bed and learn towards her place a kiss on her forehead. He placed his hand on her cheek and cares it with his thumb.

Manik:- While sleeping you look so beautiful and when you woke up you became a wild cat. I fall for your this nature my baby. I miss you so much today. I so wanted to spend some time with you but see my faith. I love you so much my jaan(life).
