morning in Malhotra mansion...

Manik was still sleeping when the alarm rang... he slowly lifted his head and looked at the time... 5:30 am...

*hmmmm... I am still sleepy... I wonder why... well gotta wake up...*

He thought as he rubbed his eyes a little before sitting on the bed when the door burst open revealing Neyo...

"Ayooo mannu... you are still not ready... common go fast and change into your tracksuit... you can go to jogging today but you have to come within 5 minutes..." Neyonika said walking towards the closest. While Manik sighed. He went near Neyo and back hugged her.

"Mom good morning... and 5 minutes me koi jogging nahi kar saktha hai..." He said while Neyo smiled and ruffled his hair.

"Accha baba... then you have to come within 15 minutes ok..." She said while Manik nodded his head and was about to go inside the washroom when Neyo called him.

"Good morning mannu..." She said kissing his forehead while Manik smiled widely.

"Ahem ahem... now if your drama is over can I get my wife back." Raj said coming in. While Manik smirked and hugged Neyo and pouted.

Raj glared Manik seeing that he was not letting his Neyo go.

"Mumma..." He said as if not willing to let go while seeing raj glare her son Neyo glared raj.

"Raj why are you behaving like a kid. Go down and wait for me." She said while raj blinked his eyes at her.

"Neyooo..." He said trying his charm on her.

"Right now." she said sorry ordered while raj who looked like a dejected puppy went back not before glaring Manik once again. When raj left neyonika twisted Manik's ear.

"Mom ouch! accha sorry sorry." He said while Neyo finally let his ear go. He rubbed it a little.

"*sigh* my daughter-in-law is gonna have a tough time handling a man child like you. Accha leave that. Go fast and change." She said pushing him into the bathroom along with his tracksuit.

"Ok mom." He said as he closed the bathroom door.

Soon Manik changed into his tracksuit and came out.

He went and greeted everyone aka Raj, Neyo, and FAB3 as cabir was still sleeping. He went out of the mansion and started to jog towards the nearest park.

After approximately 20 minutes Manik returned home only to see a big hustle and bustle. People were moving here and there and Neyo was trying on her earring and ordering some servant to call aliya and mukthi down. Meanwhile Dhruv and raj were talking about something. Only missing person was cabir.

"Oh mannu! come quickly. You go change first and ha wake cabir up. it's getting late and he is still not up." She said while Manik could only nod. Before Neyo began to talk to some other servant.

*Offo... this is just a small meeting... and mom is like this... I wonder how mom will be when my marriage day comes...*

He thought as he imagined Neyo spitting fire from her mouth on everyone. He shrugged and went up to his room.

Soon Manik changed into his new outfit after taking a bath. He went towards cabir's room only to find him sleeping on his stomach.

"Arre cabir uth... gade uth na..." He said shaking his shoulder while cabir just hummed.

"Omg wo kya pizza ka pahad hai." He said in a shocked tone while listening to this cabir sat up straight.

"Kaha hai... kaha hai mera pizza ka pahad." He said while looking around with half-shut eyes.

"Gade tujhe koi bhi teek nahi kar saktha. Chal ready ho jaa. Time ho gaya hai." He said hitting cabir's head. While cabir pouted and rubbed his head.

"teek hai par kyu..." He asked forgetting the main reason.

"Arre meri shaadi hai... nahi aayega kya..." He said.

"WHAT!!!" he shouted with wide eyes.

"mazak kar raha tha. We need to meet the girl today remember." He said while cabir glared at him for making fun of him. He inwardly cursed Manik.

"Ok chal jaa ke ready ho jaa. We are waiting for you down." He said turning around.

"Manik." He called out while Manik turned and raised his brow as if saying what.

"tu sach me shaadi karna chatha hai. Are you sure about this. If you want to back out. Now is the only time. Decide carefully." He said while Manik just sighed.

"Actually I don't know cabir... I don't know if I am ready or not... but I think I want to do this..." He said vaguely and went away while cabir shook his head.

"Manik I hope you won't regret this. Tnk before you give your answer." He said going into the bathroom leaving manik in deep thought.

Soon he came out of his daze and went fresh up.

In Murthy mansion.

Nandu was sleeping like a log when Amms came to wake her up. She sat on the bed and gently caressed nandu's hair.

"Kanna... uth ja... bohot time ho gaya hai... and aaj ladke wale aa rahe hai... ready bhi ho na hai... kanna..." She said shaking nandu's shoulder while nandu groaned listening to the ladke wale thing. She lifted her head and shifted into Amms lap. She hugged Amms who smiled at her unwillingness.

"Amms mujhe nahi mil na." She muttered as she frowned even more.

"Beta. Aise nahi keh the. Amms's ke acchi bacchi hai na. My good girl. Uth ja." She said while nandu grumpily woke up cursing the boy who was going to come.

(meanwhile in Malhotra mansion. Manik was looking into the mirror and fixing his collar.

"ha-chu!" He frowned. did he get a cold... He wondered while taking his coat in his hands.)

Nandu finally woke up and went to fresh up.

In the meantime amms looked at the sleeping figure of the girl. She looked up and prayed.

*hey prabhu isse ladki ko uthane ki sakthi de mujhe...* She thought and shook the sleeping navya slowly.

"navya beta, uth jaa meri bacchi... bohot late ho gaya hai... nandu ko dekne ke liye ladke wale bhi aa rahe hai..." She said caressing her hair. Navya raised her head and blinked a little before giving amms a wide smile and sat up.

"Good morning amms." She said hugging her while Amms too hugged her back saying good morning meri bacchi.

"accha chalo jaldi se ready ho jao. me abhi aa thi hoon." She said while navya nodded her and went to bring her clothes. She went to nandu's room to bath as nandu was in her's.

She came outside wearing her bathrobe to see her mom arranging her a dress. She walked towards her to see it was a light green design long top with a golden long strap bag.

She looked at the dress and looked at her mom in utter horror.

"Amma. No... No green!!!" She said as she covered herself dramatically. Ishita rolled her eyes. She didn't know why but her daughter never liked any other colors other than pink, white and black. Her wardrobe is literally filled with all kinds of pink, white and black clothes.

"Nandu! don't be so dramatic. it's just green. shukar manao ki me ne ye light se chudidar select ki varna me kuch heavy select kar thi. tumhare Appa ne mana kiye tha." She said handing it to nandu before going out.

"Aur jaldi kar na... ladke wale aa jaenge..." She said walking away from the door. While nandu just pouted. She took the green dress in her hands and sighed. ahhh she just wanted to paint it black...

Sulking, she went towards her closest to try it.

Soon nandu came down looking all ready for the day. Ishita who was talking with Raman looked at her with a smile.

"Kitni pyaari lag rahi hai humari gudiya... deko me ne kaha na ye color tumpe accha lage ga... meri baat koi nahi maan tha..." She said raising her brows in a taunting manner while Raman rolled his eyes.

"Wo dress koi special nahi hai humari princess ne iss dress ko pehena hai isse liye ye itni sundar hai." He said while patting nandu's head who hugged Raman.

"Thank you appa." She said while Ishita rolled her eyes at the father-daughter pair. She soon walked away from there when amms called her.

"Princess..." He said nudging her shoulder while nandu responded with another nudge on his shoulder.

"Yes appa." She said while Raman gestured her to come near which she obeyed.

"Bhaag na hai tho garden ke back me humare secret way se chele jana... me yaha handle kar looga." He said in a serious manner. While nandu smiled at this. Her father knew her well. She smiled mischievously and tiptoed towards the garden along with Raman who was ensuring that no one would see when Ishita looked at her.

"Raman! Nandu!" She shouted while they both halted in their places and turned around in slow motion only to see Ishita glaring at them like a bull. They both smiled sheepishly while looking at each other in terror. Thats when Navya entered from the kitchen with a bowl in her hand. She was eating something.

"Navya nandu ko leke room me jao. Aur dhyan rakna ki bhaag na paaye." She said strictly while glaring Raman who she knew was the culprit of all this.

Nandu sliently went away with navya who rolled her eyes at her. She gave her Appa one last all the best and ran off to her room dragging the eating navya.

"Raman... jao aur ek jagah beto aur hilne ki koshish bhi mat karna... rishab tum apne appa par nazar rakna." She said and went away while Raman and rishab looked at each other before going near the sofa to sit. They both started talking about their favorite topic, football match. Amms looked at the whole drama and how one word from Ishita made everyone go back to their own places. She chuckled finding it funny. She too went near Ishita to help her.

In Malhotra mansion.

Manik came down to see everyone ready for departure and were waiting for him. He nodded at them and sat beside his mom.

"So is everything ready Manik. Shall we leave?" Raj asked checking his watch while Manik nodded his head.

"What about you kids. sab ready?" He asked while FAB4 said yes uncle in unison. Manik and neyo chuckled at their childishness. Everyone stood up and moved towards their cars.

......................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Meanwhile in the room.

Nandu was moving back and forth, again and again, making navya who was looking at her dizzy.

"Offo, nandu. Common, stop getting nervous. It's not like this is your first time meeting a boy right." She said making nandu roll her eyes at her.

* What navu said is correct. Why are you getting nervous nandu. Just calm down.

Inner self: Its because amms said he was from new york.

Just shut up. I don't want to remember any of that. Just shut up.*

She thought harshly while navya rolled her eyes at her seeing her in daze.

She was about to speak when rishab came in announcing...

Rishab: di ladke wale aa gaye hai.
