Nandini's pov

I was numb to react..Really was she, her??Was all I'm thinking.. And by seeing her knowing smile towards me..Made me realise that..yes, she was same women, who i met 11 years ago..and She knew who I'm to Manik..And whom i'm..

Seeing her all good..I felt to elite..She deserves every bit of it..I could see confidence in her..I could see a brightest smile in her face..Mainly there was a reason for her existence..My aiyyappa just proved me, that He won't let down his kids..And I'm happy for her from my heart..seeing her all happy in her life..unlike years back..

She came running to manik's arms.. Saying my given to him..Mani..Which surely burned me..But seeing a kind of happiness in manik's face..That thought immediately wiped out..It was just like he was meeting sister after many days..There was a affection..There was care..There was concern in his eyes for her..She was special to Manik Malhotra..And I can see that, because he will never allow anyone to his territory..If he allows them, they should be in top of his life..

He twirled her like a baby..Where I admired them, keeping my shock aside...She walked up to me..But what she did next was impossible for me to believe..She hugged Abhay..Where he called her massi..When this happened?? I never said a word about Smitha to any except Abhi..And he being all homely with her made me shock..What's happening here?? was My damn question..Both men's who are known for their introvert nature..Are going easily with new people..I will faint in seconds..aiyyappa kya hora hai?

And there entered a boy of 11 years..He look so handsome..Was he the same boy?? Who we both got near church..And seeing him..Abhay jumped on him..Where he called Abhay as Ammy..Now who is that?? Was it his nickname?? But I don't think so..Or it is?? Aiyyappa..Mera life ethna complicated kise kar Liya Apne..And more important how does Abhay know each one here before hand..If u ask me..More than me..He knows Manik.. God..I will be mad in few minutes..If this confusion torture continues..

I looked Manik who seeing each kid with all shock just like me..But there was a smile on his face said that he found out something very important..I want slap each one and ask what's happening? But all I could do was be silent Spector until Vishwas entered followed by Abhimanyu..Did Manik invited Abhi also.. Wow!! He is such a sweet heart..I mentally rewarded him a cheek..Aww..manii..Where my mind yelled my current tension going in my mind..If I won't get answers I will kill each one..In few minutes..But I saw a cute little bundle was carried by abhi..And I saw Manik being all cute like a baby..Trust me, I never seen Manik that cute..His eyes twinkled in joy, when baby recognized him..There was a different shine in manik's eyes..Which I never seen..I could see a happiness in his eyes, when baby smiled at him..A small, nave and innocent boy was still alive in that monster masked man..He looked like a little kid..But my thoughts broken when his phone rang..He walked out without saying a word to any but the smiling man turned all frowny when he walked out of my sight..I so wanted yell and ask..But nothing was in my control..Where I myself.. Experiencing each feeling..Maybe it a shock, surprise, jealousy, confusion, irritation,happiness..All in all..Every feeling was going within me..Where I stood blank until I heard baby's cry on immediate walk out of Manik..Whose baby was this?? God I will die with questions only..

everyone cuddled her, even i tried my best..nothing worked..all kids started making faces to make baby distract, vishwas and abhi bought toys from car..smitha patted him, and asked her what happened but baby cried more..our all try went in bin..

someone call manik, please..it was smitha's almost plead..i looked her in confusion, what's relationship with manik and baby's cry..and realisation stuck, it must be baby of smitha and vishwas..oh! aiyyappa i'm going crazy..

his phone is busy, smitha..vishwas again dialed manik's no. where abhay standing on car bonnet, where he was making weird faces to stop baby cry..but in vain

arey etho ro rahi hai..abhay said sadly..looking at baby..he never likes someone cry..whoever it maybe..how bad they are, he never let anyone cry, when he is there..he distracts people in seconds..that's him, exact copy of manik malhotra..

ye manik phone uta kyu nae raha hai? it was abhi..who was still dialing manik's no. and baby wail continued..which created a worry on each face..and like finally manik received call of vishwas..who asked him to reach immediately..where manik came back in minutes.. his eyes were little glossy, but there was a smile on his face..which was something unexplained to any..it was like he got jackpot..and that made me smile..

smitha yelled at manik, for not holding baby..this completely new, that manik malhotra letting someone scold him..its really reserved for three people, one is cabir..other is neyonika aunty and last is me..but he didn't felt bad or took it serious..but something caught my mind were words of manik and smitha..that manik never held any small baby..was it true? i mean his friends kids at least if not our own kids..did he never held any small baby in his arm..how can it be possible..how? at least his sister mukthi..or maybe mrudula..who is his little world, in my absence..was manik this away from everyone..was he locked himself this much..i felt hurt..but i saw scared in his eyes, that if he let baby fall..there was a negative confidence level in his eyes..which i never seen him..for which he also got scolding..the man who can handle anyone is finger tips scared to just hold a baby of 3 or 4 weeks..i can see a manik, which i never seen..he wasn't arrogant..he wasn't cool..he wasn't monster..he wasn't confident manik malhotra..he was a small manik, who was scared of world..in all way..his eyes yelled fear to me, when he looked me, and then took baby in his arms being all conscious..

to my utter shock, baby stopped crying..where all gaped at duo..we were trying all way to stop baby cry, but baby needed him alone..he was special to baby, and his warmth proved me..was manik this good for kids? then why did he wanted kill our baby? who were his own..did i missed something, stuck my mind..but my mind plopped a question, then why he said to abort baby, he was heartless and u should believe me..where my heart said..u will regret if u hear him again..this made me numb..i felt a strange uneasiness within myself..i had this feeling whenever i think about manik being ruthless for his own kids..and seeing all new manik, my uneasiness reached next level..i definitely missed a biggest part behind abortion drama of ours..and he going missing after his concert in dubai..and his come back after 7 years, to music world with a bang..where he ruled in a way, which i could i ever imagine..where his smile was artificial..in all this i forgot to ask him the biggest question of our life..why did he wanted me to abort our baby? oh! fuck..i never asked him this question..never..why..why? how stupid of me..

i looked manik..and he was playing with baby..and no one can say, he was the man who asked me to abort baby..was he real that day? was my question..he was cuddling baby effortlessly..he had charmness to attract any..he had love for kid, and it was real..he had become a kid..i smiled in my thought, which i dreamt..

where manik standing next to me..holding our babies with happy tears of having baby, where he cuddling,nuzzling them..where he used laugh with our kids for their cute antics..he was different man, he was seeing his childhood in their eyes..he was coaxing his baby girl, when his boy poked her or irritated her..where he was pacifying his baby boy, when his girl..pulls his fav. soft hairs..he cajoling them for not being with them, when he was outside the home because of his concerts..He singing lubly to them..He rubbing their tears when they cried in buckets..He taking care of them in my absence..He making them happy with his sudden surprises..He teaching them how to speak..His happy tears when they called Papa for the first time..He teaching them how to walk..He teaching them how to ride bicycle..He crying to send them to school..He cribbing more than kids, for not sending them to school..He giving lame excuses to make them stay at home..All three irritating me to all world..He making them ready for school, when I'm angry with him..He making breakfast to fed all..He punching a boy, who made his little girl cry..He manfoying his son, when he pisses him.. I'm sitting and watching them playing in park..Where Manik teaching them each musical instruments..

This was what I dreamt..With Manik being our side..I looked Manik again..He was perfect example for bestest Dad..What happened to u Manik, that day?? Where this side of urs lost, that day?? Why did u made me feel, that u were cruel..Kyu kiya Manik?? Kyu?? Kya hogai tha tume usse din?? Why didn't u come behind me?? Why Manii..why??

Nandini chale..I heard him, getting back to reality..I just walked next to him looking how his eyes twinkled, when baby giggled at him..He lost most precious moment of being father in his life..He just lost it..And I let that happen..Where my heart always yelled at me, how wrong was I about him, but I let my mind to take charge throughout all the years of our life.. when I saw his craving for me..I let him down..But for once, he never complained to me..He never let me down but I let him down..Yes, it was truth..My heart knew it..But I refused to hear it..I refused to hear it..I feel myself disgust..I not ruined our life but our kids life too.. Somebody kill me..I just took away his precious part of his life..I just took them away from him..

He loved every kid, whom's ever kid it was..He never let any kid unhappy in presence..He made sure, he fills place of parent's love in mrudula's life..But why couldn't I see his genuineness in his love..For hell sake I even called his love for our kids was fake..He proved every damn time, he was best anyone could have..How could I thought that he didn't love his own kids..I would have slapped him that day..Things would have never be this ugly..A person, who always says anything for me..If I would have asked for kid..He would have fulfilled my wish, without second thought, how much ever difficult it is..Because his happiness always lie within me..Why did I did exact opposite of it? When I knew, he was not soul who never hurts any, however bad they are..When I knew he was kind to any needy..When he can't be cruel to any, and he being cruel For his kids will be last thing..And his words still rings in my ears..i tried to hold them nandini with all my best i could, but people have their own set of priorities, where i never stand in first for anyone..so they chose to walkout even i wanted to hold them...but for them they have their own reasons to walk out, above me..i didn't understand his painful words that time..he made sure that he didn't hurt me by his words..his words simply said me, i never kept him above our kids but for him whatever happens he kept and keeps me above anyone..i let him down but for once he never questioned me nor he will do in future..but i did exact opposite with him..that minute my kids became important for me..not manik, i rubbed him off from my priorities..which was only reserved for him..and he do said, he tried to hold me, but he couldn't..i need to find out manik's past sooner..yes, i need to..

I saw Manik smiling at someone..Now what it is..I looked person..What saw i was next to impossible..Today..My heart gonna cry, for all things happened in our life..One word came out from my mouth..When he opened his arms for me..

Dad...I shouted as I needed him more at this moment..I ran to his arms..Like I always do..I cried ..I cried..For all things..He didn't stopped me..Neither I wanted to..

Shshsh..Princess stop crying..I heard him..But what I was going through was unbearable..I became reason for everything..I just became..

I cried more in his arms..Without caring about anything..I was in pool of emotions, where I didn't knew for which reason I was crying..for what not..

Ab hogai princess, stop crying..He forcefully pulled me out from his embrace..I had bend my head down..I didn't had face to look up..I didn't..He wiped my tears..

Ye kya halath bandiya tune..roro ke..Huh? Chalo stop crying..He said..As he wiped my tears again, which didn't had stop today..

Nandini Murthy lift Ur head high..My daughter never bows her head infront of any.. Samji..Lift Ur head high..Ye sikaytha Maine tume..He said as he lifted my face by chin..If I own my dignity in front of world,is just because of this man..Who never thought me bow head..I was his proud..But today..Was I?? A big no..

I'm sorry dad..All I could say, as I engulfed me..He was my hero.. Without him, Nandini murthy is just a big zero.. Whatever I'm today, is what my dad thought me..I'm proud to say he is my dad..Yes he is..

Sorry muje bolna hai..tume nai baby..I'm sorry baby..I'm sorry..I really didn't know what happened me that day..It wasn't me..Seeing Ur mom like that, I didn't know what got into me..all i could see was her..i'm sorry nandu..i'm sorry baby..i cried more, i missed my dad like hell, in each walk..yes, i was mad at him, but remember a daughter can't get angry with her father, whatever happens..he is what u need at the end..ur hero..he will be one who will protect u..he will be one, who u call ur first love..he will be one who shows right path..he will be one, who pours huge amount of happiness in ur life, however difficult it is for him..he is ur adviser..he is ur guide..he is best lover..and non can bet that place in ur heart, not even ur lover..that's what my dad was for me..and i dragging things even after this many years will be my foolishness and I'm not fool to drag it further..without parents a child is big zero..i mean it..

dad, please don't say that..i'm sorry for what happened..i'm sorry..i said as i looked up to see him..he rubbed my tears, and smiled at me..

i missed my princess..he said as he kissed my forehead..this is what i missed this long years..and i missing them again, was last thing i do at this moment..

missed u dad..he engulfed me again..where he was giving soothing kiss on my hairs..where he was saying same old dialogues to me, where i was giggling hearing them forgetting i was around people..

ahem ahem..i hope..bharath milap hogai hai..so, lets continue with pooja preparations..i'm damn hungry..it was abhay..i looked him, he was in arms of vishwas, with his pouty face saying how hungry he was..and i looked manik, he was standing away from everything..i mean in last..he didn't dared to come front..i can see guilt in his eyes..but he was distracted by kid, she wants his attention, and he gave gladly..he was manik, which i never thought..Which I never seen..

dad, i never introduced my kids right? chalo, i will..this is abh..my words was cut by him..

es kon bulsaktha hai..by god, he has bad temper nandini..he complained..i looked amused..wait second..how does he knows it..where i heard abhay's mumur..not again, exactly like manik..

ap kese janthe hai? i asked my dad,, where abhay and avni immediately ran to manik..where manik gave what look to them as he was little far to hear anything and others were away its only me and my dad, they all have us required privacy..i gave look back to my dad..

voh ayye the kal hospital ko..manik ke sath..i must say princess, they are exactly like manik..and mostly more possessive about him..i gave shocked look to him, they didn't said about it to me..where i saw manik and kids..who were playing with small kid on guidance of manik..who will say, he never handled any small kid..he did perfectly..

don't be shock nandini, u are lucky to have each one in them..u have best family, that i could ever see..he said looking them and he was happy ..and he turned me he was content for my happiness..

never lose manik..bohuthi precious hai voh, aur precious ko, kohi nai kothe hai baby..aur tume patha hai nandini..before the day u come to our house..what happened with him? he asked me, wait what happened with manik..i looked horrified as i saw tears in his eyes, as he looked manik..he loved manik like his own son..why won't he cry..why? manik was dear to my parents..more than me..

kya..kya..huwa tha dad? i asked him in trembling voice..where i looked around all where preparing for pooja..smitha is supervising things..and vishwas and abhi were working under her instructions..

manik, bankrupt bangaya tha..and i guess even he had an accident after u left home..usse severe neverous break down hogaya tha and uske chakar mai, staircase se neche girgaye tha..tume rokne ka jaldi mai..After that uske Sath kya hua muje nai patha..his dad vanished all news about his accident..he said something, which stopped my breathing..i was numb to react..tears were adorning my eyes..i looked manik, who was playing with all kids and smile was constantly playing on his lips..as i held pillar next to me, as i sat on floor..i couldn't breath at all..I could ever imagine a slit cut on his body, he had severe nervous breakdown and it's not just completed, he just fell from stairs just to stop me..And what I thought?? I thought he used me..

nandini..sambalo apne apko..my dad said..i kept my hand on my forehead..what i have done..what..god..just someone kill me..i wasn't there when he needed me most.. I wasn't there..That's the reason he couldn't come behind me..And shayad he being bankrupt made him to say no to our kids,as he wanted give everything best to me and our kids..But what and all I thought about him..i looked my dad..to know one answer..

par ye news..it wasn't telecast right? He was big tycoon and rising Rockstar, why nothing such came??i asked him..with all my questions..he sat next to me..

uski dad ne, sab news valo ko kard liya tha, he never wants his surname gets affected because of manik..infact..ye sune mai ayya tha..it was his dad..who made him bankrupt..i got all information from my trusted people, who were around manik..jab tum ghar ayye thi na..tab mai ye sari bathe kara tha mai, apne logo se..because manik went missing after his accident for how many days, no one knows..it took him years together to built himself...tears didn't stopped from my eyes..how could he do with his own kid..i mean, i knew he was not a dad, manik deserved but i never knew he stoop so low..a child like manik, never deserved a father like raj uncle.. Never..

ye news sun liya tha tumre mom ne..and when u said u left manik..at his worst..she got major brain stroke..not because u were pregnant before marriage and we trust manik, and he leaving u is last thing happens in this world, we knew it nandini..Manik is best u can have..We simply didn't called him our son..He proved us in each walk, but we failed to see it..he filled up information, which i wasn't aware..mathlab, she wasn't angry because i was pregnant but because i left manik that time, when he needed me..Shit! Kya Kar diya Maine aiyyappa..

maine kya karidya dad..what i have done see..maine sab karab kardiya..look at my kids..i just pulled out father's love from their life from years together, and u know what they never complained for it, for once also..but they always supported him..i used get annoyed whenever abhay and avni supports him above me..but i never knew i was so wrong about manik..i'm so wrong dad..maine kya kardiya..manik ke sath..he never said anything to me..how much ever i humiliated him, but for once also he never defended himself..he used beg for chance and assurance, all i did was..give my silence or even worst i said i don't need u..i hate u..maine kar diya..i cried lots to lots..But a guilt on spoiling everything made me feel disgust on myself..I called him heartless..I abused him with words never to be used..I cursed him with a rotten hell..For my each tears..And he never for once let anyone talk Ill about me..That was he..And what am I..I never deserved him..I never deserved gem like him.. Never..

shshs..nandini jo hogai.. So hogai..let it be in past..don't drag things in future..now its not u both alone but ur kids also there..never forget this nandini, if kids need mom most they equally need a father to protect them..and i saw his genuineness for his kids..he is best father a kid can have nandini..don't ruin ur present and future because of ur past baby..think twice whatever u do..samji..i could only bob my head..my mind had stopped hearing what and all happened to manik..i kept looking him..he was smiling all way, whenever small baby girl smiles in his arms for his funny antics, which was thought by avni and mrudula..no one can say, he is same man, who hold a huge pain, yet put best smile as nothing happened..he proved me again..he wasn't simply called THE MANIK MALHOTRA..he proved it..Because he was rock, who can sustain any hard hit..And he did it..Like it never hurt him..

dad..apko kya kya patha hai..manik bare mai..i asked him with a hope to know manik, who i left in my past..who was all mine..but i still left him, as i thought he never deserved me, how wrong was i..

muje nai patha hai nandini..manik dubai concert ke bad gayab hogai..In all that 9 months‌, everyone used him like shit, they used pass worst comments on him as he went bankrupt and his family I have never seen or heard someone like them..They are demons of this real world I tell u and they made his life like a machine.. And after that where was he? what happened to him? no one knows except his family, everything became confidentail about him there after..manik became close chapter for years..people forgot him as his dad successfully accomplished his task, to ruin manik's life and career and even a bet of u walking out of his life by breaking all knots with Manik by urself(he took a pause, I was in tears)..fab4 tried their luck but in vain of taking his success in his absence made all attempts fail..but no one can take place of heera..people didn't accepted them, because Manik Malhotra is what they want.. tabi ayya vapas Manik Malhotra with a bang..that no one could expect..es kohi industry nai jo Manik Malhotra rule nae kiya..he shut everyone's mouth with his rise..no one could rise question at him, comments tho dur ki bath..he stand there, today no one can reach..he is top business man of whole world..and every individual desire to have his life and career...he gave tight slap to people, who left him in his disaster..and if manik stands anywhere, the way he desired and all thanks to three who are standing there..MRUDULA, VISHWAS AND SMITHA..THEY BUILT NEW MANIK MALHOTRA..who i ever seen and heard..he completed looking at people, who were teasing manik..and he allowed everyone..He wasn't same Manik of mine,he was changed..And his life thought him lessons which he will never forget..

Tume patha princess..Manik ne sari thayari kiya tha..usne,Tume London bejne keliye..tumre Padia ke liye..I looked my dad..This was really not expected at all..My dad promised me to give money for my studies..I completely denied from Manik as I thought it was his dad's money..

Haan Nandini, Manik ne request Kiya tha mujse ye bath tume na batha ne ki leye..tume idea bhi nai hai baby.. Tume khush rakne ki liye kya kya Kiya hai usne?? He used work as bar tender, he used to sing in many restaurants and bars..He used work as mechanic in car garages.. He used earn his own bread without anyone's help.. He had set amount for Ur education by his own hard earned money..Jo Jo pesa usne tum par karch Kiya voh SAB Manik ki kud ki paise the..Yuhi, Haan nai kaha tha maine Manik ko tumare liye..He took all responsibility of urs without asking any penny from any not even me..usne tumre liye jo education ki liye jo pese, kata karke raktha usne voh bhi.. Mangalore Ko bech diya..Ye soch kar thu vaha pe hai..and he didn't think twice before sending them to u, even he knew he didn't had penny for himself..to eat food also..he had been with empty stomach for months together..but he didn't cared bit about himself as he all wanted was Ur happiness Ur career..U don't want him in ur life, never mattered him..What mattered him was..U..just u..I could only bow my head in shame..I have never seen this phase of his..I never knew for my happiness what and all he did..I was feeling like to jump from Clift..My heart cried hearing all this.. Mom was right Manik wasn't wrong..But I myself was wrong..I took all people wrong..I thought they were supporting Manik above me..But hell no, he deserved it more than me..I was blinded by his love that I ever seen this side..He locked his pain infront of me..Even in his struggle, he made sure he gives me best..And he never compromised on me in that matter..And I sitting in some part of world, never to bothered about him..I thought he cheated on me..But hell no..He didn't but I did..For his trust upon me..I let his dad, win the bet..That I will walk way..And I successfully gave biggest victory to him..Failing my man..Who kept me like real fairy tale princess..Even in his worst..Can anyone get man like him?? Hell no..

U knew everything about him..but U said u hate him?? I asked him, how he treated Manik in viren's wedding..

Nandini I always keep record of Manik..Since he had entered ur life..I have seen his down fall and growth from far distance..That doesn't mean I hate him..I hated him at that moment seeing my wife..But I hardly could hate him..He was not a man I could ever hate..I was hurt that's it..And u know what he didn't dared to come infront of me today..He isn't same Manik‌, who talks anything with me..We lost that Manik long back..Now he hardly talks..Is words are limited..salo salo ki Kali pan..Bohuth kuch sika diya usko..And he was punished so badly..For his sins, which he never did..Nandini..U should meet his doctor once..U will get to know about Manik more..His last words gave me gossbumps..At the mention of doctor..I gave worried look to my dad..What happened to Manik..Was my question..Oh! Aiyyappa kya Kiya Apne uski sath..

Doctor?? I asked in choking tone..

Huh! Tume nai bathya Abhay ne..He knows each details of manik's health..In fact abhay is taking care of manik's diet as I heard same from dr.Sankar..He really cares for Manik..And he loves Manik, very much..I was shocked at his words..Where I remember abhay reminding Vishwas bhai about manik's food on regular intervals, when he is in office..I never knew abhay was this protective towards Manik..And I got to know why was he so protective towards him today..

Dad, can u fix an appointment with that doctor?? I asked him to know about Manik..In each and every corner..

Arey..U don't need an appointment?? He said casually..I was like why?? And he read it..And he gave u don't know this also look to me..

Tume nai patha..Manik is owner of that hospital..u can go whenever u want to meet his doctor..and Manik comes there every 15 days for his check up..Where Ur mom is admitted..Manik ki ye bath nae patha tha..As I requested to authorities not inform same..And even I wanted keep an eye on Manik, for his well being..Now don't worry Manik is fine..But he needs check up regularly..He stuffed few more knowledge about Manik..I know zero about Manik..I'm sure about it..And I feel hatred for myself..

And apko meri bare kuch nai patha tha?? I asked in sad tone..He gave side hug..As we walked back To temple as arrangements were made, I knew dad as organised Pooja.. Because I knew Manik have negative trust on God..And this was another his surprise to make me happy to get my dad, my hero back to my life.. yes, I'm happy to get my dad..But equally hurt, for what happened in our past..I couldn't hold this burden for minutes..How he copup with this torture for years together..He was so strong..And I'm nowhere to it.

Princess..I searched everywhere..Mathlab SAB jaga..But I couldn't figure u out..U wiped all information about u..So, I couldn't find u baby..I'm sorry..He said..I just hugged..I felt myself to cover up with his warmthness for my whole life..What must my kids felt when they got Manik in their life..And I say it must be priceless..And I saw in their eyes..And their dad deserved them..More than me..

End of Nandini's pov

##

Manik's pov

I was playing around kids..To distract myself from all mess.. Because of me Nandini lost her dad..If I would've been not in her life..She would not been this unhappy..Maybe my bad luck rubbed her badly..I should've not entered her life..I should've not..

Manik..Pooja is ready..I heard from Smitha..What should I do for it..I don't believe in God..What is purpose I'm standing in temple..

So..I asked her..When my daughter dragged me with her..I know she won't leave me unless I attend Pooja..She is stubborn daughter of mine..I stood in last, I was least interested man, in believing Him..

And Pooja started, Nandini was made sit infront of god either side of her were our kids, and she was performing Pooja with all her trust upon Him..

But her face was all gloomy, and it told me she was too sad..Her puffy eyes, red cheeks and red nose said me..She had cried buckets maybe because she knowing about her mom..This time I won't involve with her parents like before..I won't take her place in their life..Its best for her..If I stay away from her parents..I will take oath, I will never go near to them.. Because of me, she lost her parents..I won't let that happened again, she don't need to do any comprise from now on..she can have her parents for herself, like before..when I was no one in her life..Yes, it hurts me but it is good for her..And I can do anything for her..

I walked around veranda with small kid..As baby was nudging me..She don't like to stay in same place just like Vishwas..I was humming so that she could sleep..But in vain, kids love to trouble me in all way and rest where too into Pooja, they must have not acknowledge my presence also..

And I was still hung with information I got about Abhay and mrudula..They used pull each other's hair infront of me.. They play prank against each other..They fight like cat and rat..But at the end they go so good..I love that fact about them from beginning..I remember how mrudula entered nandini's room, when Nandini wasn't well..I didn't how she landed there to make Abhay feel good..But today it made a sense to me..And in airport, I guess both had fight, when she kept chocolates in his hand refering him as khadus..How annoyed and hurt was he that time..He had become soft towards me after that encounter..I don't know what happened..But something happened between them..Warna Abhay Malhotra letting me so easily never going to happen so soon..And then he smiling when his phone beeped when we were going to our apartment from airport..That smile and smirk, highly spoke about his happiness, like he achieved something..Now I know what it meant, and message sender was definitely bird..And then first day, of class room entry in Space..Like it was planned before hand..And even today my driver said, Abhay picked bird from her Nani's home.. That's the reason he politely declined my offering to drop him to his workshop..And next time both drenching in water and entering to class..Trust me, I'm laughing at my own foolishness..I must say he played best game without coming to my notice..Even today, if he would've been little careful..I could never track his biggest secret, which played in wonder..But I'm not going to ask him unless he comes to me and say...I'm not angry with him..But I'm too happy to say, yes he is my son, who is more smarter than me..He is Abhay Manik Malhotra after-all..

And bird's Nani reminds me off‌, wait second he knows her Nani too..Because bird never keeps secret against her Nani.. Even her Nani is too concious and concern about her granddaughter, that she not noticing things about Abhay and bird, will be a joke for me.. Well I don't have words..I sat down taking support of pillar..

Hey, baby..Sona nai hai kya tume?? I asked her..She used make me walk all night in hospital..If I sit somewhere she used start her wail..Smitha had many complications with baby in her womb..So, she was in ICU under observation and Vishwas with her all time..But that where best nights I say..I don't know how it feels to hold baby..I never played with small babies..Her small things used make me feel, how a father feels..But I couldn't feel it for my own kids..

She made a sound saying a no to me..Wow..This wow..Like seriously..But I love it..when I spend time with kids, they make me feel I'm better person..That were best two hours of my life..I still remember..

Flashback

3 weeks before

I was sitting in my office all occupied, as I have continuous meetings and cherry on leave is not helping me either..On top of it.. Vishwas was in Bangalore for new projects..I said him not go but do u think he will listen to me..Never going to happen..And my office landline rang..I picked them up..

Hello..I said but I was still rumbling files..But I heard glass breaking sound from other side..I immediately saw no. Id.. Shit..

Cherry..Baby Ur alright?? I asked her, where I could hear her loud cry in pain..

Manii..Please jaldi ana..My water is broken.. Please..No one is at home..Please I can't lose my baby..please..She said with great difficulty..I ran downstairs assuring her that I will be on time.. God! Keep her safe..

Within minutes I was entering Sinha house..Which I call my third home..I come here whenever I feel too lonely, when I can't handle my own suffocation..Even I want to run to neo mom's arm..I can't..I'm bound not to enter near any Malhotra properties..I can only meet her outside that to twice a year..One is on my birthday and other is June 4th..I need her, atleast that day's when I feel like unwanted person on whole planet..She makes me feel I'm not..She is my mom after all..Who never let a child cry for his shity theories..And is she is best I could get as my mom..

Cheery..I yelled as entered main door and she was holding her stomach with all her pain.. God! She is having severe pain..I can't that..I ran to her..It really sank my heart seeing her like that..I can see prathik crying holding her hands and he himself was shivering with fear..And all servants were missing..What the hell??What  were this both doing at home without servants? Was my question and Vishwas's whole family lives in Delhi..And Smitha still had date for delivery.. That's the reason Vishwas went to Bangalore..But for his bad luck, he isn't around her..

Manik please kuch karo..I'm not able to take this..Please..I'm feeling like I will die..She was crying in pain..I immediately picked her in my arms..Prathik bought water bottle with him behind me..I put her in back seat of the car carefully..I had already bought my driver along..So, I kept her head on my lap, where prathik occupied passenger seat of car all worried with his tears..

City hospital jaldi..Where my driver drove us with all speed seeing condition..He is my best driver..Who make sure I reach home, when I'm drunk with my guards..Thanks to heavens I'm around good people finally after years..Who thinks I'm human with heart unlike people who I had..They don't use me..But they respect me, what I can ask for..

Shhshh..cherry..U will be fine..I'm there na..Kuch nai hone Dunga tume..Hmm..trust u both will be fine..Tumre bhai haina, kuch nai hone dunga tume..I promise..I was cajoling her by wipping her tears and sweet..as she was crying more pressing her nails to my skin..At the moment I felt one thing..If by chance Nandini would've been gone through this, how would be she..Who took care of her..Who?I'm not worthy for her..Yeah that's truth..Hope that pure soul get happiness.. Without having bad luck like me..

Manii.. Vishwas.. Please I need him..Call call karo usse..She said to me, her breathing was going volient..I removed my phone where my own hands were shivering in fear..i Gave message to Vishwas and he gave his assurance to her..That he will be soon to Mumbai..

It was more than four hours..Smitha being in labour ward..I could not withstand with her throbbing yell out of pain.. I had made prakith sleep in my cabin.. Vishwas needs two more hours to reach here...As weather wasn't favouring to land plane in Mumbai..And Smitha's condition is not either helping me..I was walking to- fro in front of labour ward..I hope they will be fine..

##

Manik sir..I heard doctor's voice..I looked up..She was carrying a white bundle in her hand with a smile on her face..I hope Smitha is fine..

I walked with slow steps to her..I gulped my saliva..It was my first, that I'm seeing small new born baby..I passed her nervous smile of mine..Before looking to baby..I guess she got me..

Its baby girl..and Ur sister Smitha and baby both are fine..She said..I smiled more with a real one..I looked baby..It was so small..With tiny legs and hands..Which were covered with white soft cover..I never knew babies look so cute and delicate at the same time..With great wish, I wanted touch her..It was my wish..With my index finger I slowly traced it's cheek..It wingled a little..

Sir, u can take the baby..Till then I need to cheek mrs.sinha..She said..I was damn horrified..I wanted kill my own kids..What if do something to this baby girl..A hell no..I won't ..im cruel..I won't take baby in my arms..Never..

No..No..U keep by urself..I won't take her in my arms..I so wished but my insecurities never let me do something I wish to do..Trust me, I don't want hurt her, I couldn't be good to my own baby how could think I will be good for other kids..Correct?

Sir, its okay u take baby..Mrs.sinha needs me more..She said as matter of fact..But still I wasn't convinced..She could see my fear in my eyes..

U won't harm the baby sir..U won't..She was more determined than me..I looked her eyes..She assured me‌‌,  that I can pull it off easily..With my trembling hands I took baby..Telling myself..U won't hurt baby like u did in ur past..My conciousness was yelling to me about my ruthless deeds in past..But all feelings flew in window..When I felt baby in my arms completely..I looked doctor..She smiled at me..

She is in safe hands..U don't worry about her..and u won't harm any..And u can never..She said eyeing baby..Little she know how cruel and ruthless I'm..No one knows expect my girl, who left me that second, when she got to know how monster I'm..She took right decision in her life..By leaving me..

I sat on one of the chair..Seeing small bundle of joy, as tears ran down..It was feeling I never experienced..I can't put that in words..Its beyond feeling to me..Where baby snuggled to my chest..Making me smile with tears..It felt blissful..She was not my daughter but gave me feeling of father..I kissed babies forehead making sure of her delicate and soft hands..

Thank you..All I could say to her..I know I will not get opportunity again in my life..She filled up a void feeling of mine..She slowly opened her eyes for the first time..I smiled at her attempts..It was so small, yet had big future to see from it with black orbs, which can make u feel better..She cuddled more to me..Giving a feeling of infinity in my life..

It was best moment of my life..And I won't forget it ever in my life..I could never stop saying a thanks to this baby, who made me feel..How it feels to be a father. Vishwas will jump in joy, as he and prathik needed a baby girl to pamper around..And I'm sure he will prove to be best father of world unlike me..

Flashback ends

Manik..I heard abhimanyu's voice from behind..I turned my face to see him..

Tum yapa pe ho.. Everyone are waiting for u.. chalo..He dragged me along softly Because I was carrying baby still.. Without letting me protest..

I stood next to nandini..Where Panditji was putting thilak for everyone..He was about to put thilak for me..I backed off..I'm sorry..

I don't believe in God..I said in blank tine, maybe u think me as atheist..Yes I'm..I don't believe HIM as I have my own lessons, which I learnt effortlessly..He isn't there. And he proved every bit of it to me..He took my everything, I never complained Him..When He took away her from me.. That was really not valid, for that I won't ever trust him..He is nowhere for me..He is nowhere...

But how can my daughter let go easily..She was in Arms of Vishwas she made me bend my head along with Abhay's, who was standing in between me and Nandini.. who equally don't believe in God..

Put them..She said sternly, it was warning tone to both of us..Where I heard giggle from two girls, who highly know what God was for us..One was Smitha and other was MRUDULA..And I glared Panditji for putting thilak on me..Where he gulped in fear..

I gave puppy look to pumpkin, she glared me, but eventually climbed my back making sure of baby..I looked Nandini who really don't like my words About God..I won't explain her either..

Nandini distributed prasadum to everyone..I was hungry with all happenings..I need food now..How I become soo foodie again? I don't know..I need ask Sankar..Maybe I got another illness..

Muje kuch chai hai?? It was my daughter with her beautiful pronounced hindi..U know what I mean, don't u?, when we both are sitting on floor away from crowd..From nowhere mom and her son sat next to her..I saw others were talking something..

What baby?? I asked her..She sat on my lap facing each one of us..She gonna put damaka wish of her's.. Abhay's mischievous smile cleared my doubt..Both bro-sis planned really big wish, Nandini kept her head on my chest..She looked all pale after her talk with dad..Did they had argument or little worried topic..I don't know.. Should I ask her? I guess no..manik, u have decided that u won't go between them..So, don't..my mind said..I kept my mouth shut to ask anything..Let them deal..If things go out of hand I will to talk to him..Its that way better..

Voh! Abhay will say..Kyu Abhay?? She put entire wish of her's on Abhay who gave are u out of Ur mind look to Avni..Who gave her famous grin..Perfect..

Mai..No..Avni it's u started not me..Okay..He defended himself.. Now what..Avni gave whatever look to him..Where Nandini was hell irritated with duo..

What's up with u both? Kya chai hai?? She asked them sorry yell at them.. Exactly my point..But I know, it's not small wish..They gonna blast our head with their wish which was in their tiny heads..But I say, they have smart and intelligent brain..And they proved it..

Voh..We need a small baby too to play...both said with exictement and hopeful tone..I thought I heard Chinese.. But look on nandini's face made me feel hell no..I played the record again..Made sure I heard same..

Come again..I asked in blank voice..Where Nandini already in my arms hidding out of shyness..Where my kids said it again shamelessly..

We want a baby in our home too..A small one..just like prathik has..They said again..One question, do kids become so bold to talk about this matters with parents, when they are born in and brought up in foreign countries..I mean..I guess u got me..C'mon who will say parents this wishes so boldly to Ur parents..as if they are asking us to bring toy from toy shop..

But what the hell should I answer..C'mon I'm that bold like my kids..To say an answer to them..But the girl sitting next to me should decide what she wants..I looked her..Her total face was flushed in red..This time with her blushing..If not kids around us.. Situation was going to be a different one..Where I would smooched her lips with mine..Telling her my feelings..

Nandini they are asking something what should I say? It was my turn to put question to my jaanu in teasing way but made sure the tone was little innocent, which wasn't definitely.. After all my daughter thought me seconds back..And I being good learner didn't learn this will be bad sign of a student, u see..But for heaven sake I was shy about the topic by myself.. Okay..If u ask, even I was blushing..Okay stop teasing me okay...

Shut-up monster's..She closed our mouths as she hid herself in my Crook..Where we laughed at her expense..She hit me with her hands..As I didn't stopped laughing with my kids..

Arey say na mamma..Even I want irritate baby like Abhay does to me..I want make baby cry like he does to me..In blink we looked Avni..What she said..Abhay glared her for false allegations.. But eventually it was truth..And Nandini her look was damn priceless but nothing compared to me..

Pumpkin..U want baby in home to make it cry.. I asked in unsure tone..Where she gave deadly glare to me..

Do u really think so?? She huffed..I hugged her immediately from back as I kissed her cheeks..Where a small smile spread on her face trying hard not to smile more saying that she needs a pacifying session from me..Be ready Manik..I said myself..

Meri tarafse granted hai..Par Apne maama se puchlo.. I said to her..Where she jumped in joy upon me..And we looked mamma bear..Who gave u all are insane look to us..

Tum theeno Kam ho..Tum log ki beech mai aur ek.. I can't handle four Malhotra's around me.. Aiyyappa..Kya kare ho meri Sath ap??  Ek aur baby??She said to her aiyyappa indirectly saying an yes to us..We pulled Nandini to hug..Who recieved huge amount of kisses..Where I kissed her lips lightly out of my happiness..

Thank u..I gave slight hit on her forehead followed by a kiss on it..Where my kids still in my arms..Planning all things for kid which haven't arrived yet to our family..They made my life more easy than I ever thought..For my best dreams also I never thought about this..But when they wished for baby it definitely gave goosbumps to me..That reminds my own happiness when I heard I was going to be father for the first time on that day..My all sorrowness, I just forgot..I was screaming out of happiness that I was going to be dad to whole airport, when I was coming back to Mumbai..That was my happiness, which lived for a minutes..And everything was gone..And it felt like hallow within me..Biggest happiness of my life turned into nightmare of Nandini and abhimanyu's life..If one wrong move of mine..A beautiful Friendship of them would have lost against flithy mind people..But not this time..I won't let anyone take our happiness dare anyone does..I'm gonna chop their head.. Without caring who the hell are they..And I badly mean it..
