"Manik..It's okay..she just wanted you to be with her! She couldn't see her son going away from her!" Nandini was trying to convince Manik as he was not ready to forgive Nyonika

Both were in Manik's cabin, sitting on the couch

"Do you really think that I'm going away from her?" Manik asked in a painful tone, Nandini nodded in a no

"No Nandini..mom has to apologise to you! Otherwise..I'm..I'm not gonna talk to her.." Manik was broken! He didn't expect this from his mom!

Nandini: Manik..just try to think from her view! Try to understand her point of view! She's your mom..and no mom will want her son to be away from her! I think..we should..

Manik: Hmm..we should what?

Nandini: I mean..you should spend more time with mom..and..we should..just..umm..stay away for some days?

"Pagal ho gayi ho? What are you saying Nandini! I can't stay away from you! And you know that very well no?" Manik shouted in frustration

Nandini: I know baba..but mom

Manik: Nandini! I really love mom! I do care for her! But Mom has to understand! We're gonna get married soon Nandini! And I should give you time but tum keh rahi ho that we should stay away? Seriously? No!! Chalo abhi! We have to go home!"

Nandini: Abhi? Lekin..

"Chalo!!" He dragged Nandini with him..

***

"Mom.." Manik said loudly..Nyonika was sitting on the couch

"Manik.." she walked towards him.. "I'm really sorry..I knew you will forgive me.." She smiled

"I will forgive you mom.but..only if.."

Nyonika looked at him with confusion, she saw he was holding someone's hand! Just then he pulled Nandini who was behind him

"You have to apologise to her mom!" He said sternly..Nyonika smiled and looked at Nandini

"Happy? Ab tou tum khush ho na? You wanted that I bend my head infront of you? Tumhai sach mein lagta hai that I will apologise to you Nandini? No!" Nyonika shouted

Nandini: Mom! I never wanted this! Main.."

Manik: Mom..are you going to apologise or not?

"No!!" She answered

"Okay! Then even from now I'm not going talk to you.." Manik said in anger and went to his room

"Manik.." Nandini was going behind Manik but Nyonika stopped her

"Now what do you want? Kar diya na mere bete ko mujhse dur..you must be very happy na Nandini?" She wiped

Nandini: Mom..aap galat samajh rahi hai I never wanted this! I Just want to sort out everything..

Nyonika didn't say anything instead she went to her room

"I really have to talk to Manik! I have to explain him" She went to Manik's room

***

"Barun..how did you know?" Sanaya asked Barun..Sanaya came to office as Barun called her

Barun: Yeah..I was passing by Manik's cabin when I heard Manik talking about this to Nandini! Manik got to know about..the truth! Nyonika aunty ne..

Sanaya: Good..very good! Acha hua! Nyonika aunty should apologise to Nandu afterall she did wrong with her! Acha hua Manik ko pata chal gaya! But why are you so tensed Barun?

Barun: Sanaya! You really think that Nyonika aunty will ask forgiveness from Nandini? No! I know her! She will not! Aur agar Nyonika aunty ne sorry nahi bola na then Manik will not talk to her!

"It's okay na..Nandu will convince...." Sanaya realised something! She immediately looked at Barun who was already looking at her

Barun: Manik will not agree!

"And I know Nandu..If Manik will not agree then even Nandu will.." Before she could complete Barun cut her in between

Barun: Nandini will not agree to talk with Manik! And then..

Sanaya: Then..Fight?!! Oh no!!

"Oh yes.." Both looked at each other with sad expression

***

Nandini was still convincing Manik! She wanted him to talk to Nyonika!

Nandini: Manik..try to understand! Mom is hurt na!

"And me? I'm also hurt Nandini" Manik yelled

"Even I'm hurt Manik! You scolded me! Gave me loads of work! You hurt me! Then I forgave you right! She is your mom Manik.." She yelled equally

"Nandini..last time! Stop this drama! I will not change my decision okay! Neither I'm going to forgive mom and nor I'm going to talk to her!" His stern voice!

"Manik if you will not forgive mom then.." Nandini showed him a finger and Manik raised his eyebrows

Manik: Then?

"Then..even I'm not gonna talk to you..!!" She finally said which made Manik full on gussa!

"Okay fine!! Go! Get out..mujhe bhi baat nahi karni tumse!!" What did he say?! Oh..Nandini must be hurt with his words!

"I'm going!!" She stormed out of the room with a stern face!

"Aaaaaaa!!!!" Manik banged his fist on the wall! Damn! He was hurt!

Hours passed..night passed! It was morning now

Both Manik and Nandini were restless! They had a fight!

"Nandu..tu bhi na! Manik is doing right! But you..you just wanted a fight right!" Sanaya scolded Nandini..! Well Nandini narrated the whole matter to her but her dear friend Sanaya was scolding her!

"Sanaya!! I just want everything to be sort out! If Manik will not agree to forgive mom then even I will not talk to him..final!" Nandini said in a stern voice and left for office

"This girl! God! ab app hi kuch karo!" Sanaya said looking upwards

***

"Kya hua? aap ruk kyun gaye?" Nandini asked the taxi driver.

Nandini was going to office by taxi..though Manik send the driver to pick her up but she refused to come in his car! There was traffic jam so the taxi driver took another way, a short cut so that they could reach at the office! But unfortunately the taxi driver stopped the car! The car was damaged!

Nandini: Kya hua???

Driver: Tire puncture ho gaya hai madam..

Nandini stepped out of the taxi. It was a desolate place!

"Apko koi aur taxi dhoodna padega! Main dekhta hoon agar kuch help mil jaye tou.." He said and left in search of help

Nandini: Aiiyappa! Where will I find another taxi now??!

She searched for her phone but alas! in fighting with Sanaya, she forgot her phone at home!

"Aiyappa!!" She looked around, there was no one! She was scared! Ofcourse she would be! It was such a silent place! She heard strange sounds!

"Bhoot voot nahi hai Nandu..just be strong!! Yeah Nandu you're strong!" She kept on saying it

Nandini: Kya karoon? Taxi driver bhi nahi aa raha! Should I walk..?

She was thinking when all of a sudden she saw 1 man walking towards her!

"Stay strong! Stay strong!" She mumbled this to herself..the man was just looking at her only

"Hey you!! Don't look at me like that okay!!" She said loudly! She shouldn't show her weakness!

"Tum..jao yahan se!" She glared at him but she a mistake by the way! He took out a small knife! He showed that to her!

"Chalo! Jo kuch bhi hai..do mujhe!!" The man screamed

"But I don't have anything!" She said cutely!

"Kya..??" He didn't understand what she said! Illiterate man!

"Mere paas kuch nahi hai! Phone bhi nahi!" She showed him her bag which contain nothing but just few files! The man scratched his head!

"Tumhare paas phone hai?" She asked innocently

"Haan hai! Lekin mera nahi hai yaar chori ka hai!" The man said and sat on the rock which was nearby "Main try kar raha hoon chori karne ki..lekin chori nahi kar pa raha hoon..sirf ek mobile hi chori kar paya woh bhi apni biwi ka mobile..!" Hun? Weird man!!

Nandini pov: C'mon Nandu..distract! Yeah! Distract him!! You can do it!
Pov end.

"Koi baat nahi..tumhai pata hai na chori karna buri baat hai!

Man: Haan! But Main try karna chahta hoon yaar!

Nandini: Jail jaana hai tumko?

Man: Kya!?

Nandini: Arre buddhu!! Chori karoge toh police tumko jail mein daal denge!

"Arre haan! Yeh toh socha hi nahi maine!" Such an idiot man! :P

Man: Vaise..mera naam Dhambere hai..

Nandini: Kya? Dhambere? Ye kaisa naam hai?

"Meri biwi ne rakha hai! Woh na mere pe bahut chilati hai yaar! Badi dukh bhari kahani hai meri!" The man said and started crying! Nandini gave a confused look!

"Hmm..ek dam same babuji!" Hun? Did she just call him babuji? Lol ;P

"Mere pati bhi na mujhpe bahut chilata hai!! Ek number ka kharoos hai woh!!" Nandini recalled hers and Manik's fight!

There was a complete silence..after few minutes

"Ye kya..tera taxi driver kahan hai? Tu kaise jayegi ghar?"

"I hate him!" Nandini said in a low tone thinking about Manik..

"Yahan mat raho! Koi bhi chor aa sakta hai..!" Look who was talking :P

A car was passing by..It was stopped! It was Manik's car! As Manik stepped out of the car, Nandini was amazed to see him!

"Manik!!" She exclaimed and immediately ran towards him. She hugged him tightly

"Manik Manik!! Main..thank godd!! I was so scared!!" She kept on saying! The man was still there! Confused!

"Nandini!!" He broke the hug and wiped her tears!

"What are you doing here haan? I send the driver to pick you no? Why you didn't come with him?" He shouted at the same time the taxi driver came also!

"Madam ji..! Chaliye! Mujhe taxi mili hai..woh apko chod dega.." The taxi driver said. Nandini remained numb as she was not in a state to talk right now

"Shut up! How can you be so careless! Aise kisi desolate place mein gadi kyun roki?"

"Manik..! Woh..kharab ho gayi thi..isiliye.." Nandini tried to say

"Shut up! Call nahi kar sakti thi tum mujhe!?" He shouted but this time the man came between them!

"Ayye!! Chilao mat!!" He showed him the knife "Tu iska pati hai matlab ye nahi ke tu ispe chilaayega samjhe!!"

"What?? Just move that knife away okay! I need to talk to Nandini..!"

"Suniye..Dhambere ji..relax! Woh mujhse pyar karta hai..! I love him! please leave him!" She explained to the man and he moved away the knife

"Madam ji..chakoo nakli hai!" The man started laughed! He was joking here😕

"Nandini did he tried to do something bad to you? Bolo! I will kill him right here.." Manik gave him a deadly glare

"No..kuch nahi hua..Manik let's go..!"

"Arre madam ji! Mere paise to dijiye.." The taxi driver said. He and his money :/

Manik glared at him and gave him a hundred note to him

"Keep the change driver!" Manik said still carrying an angry voice!

"Are you sick!! Pagal ho tum! Totally mad!! I send the driver no?!! Taxi lene ki kya zarurat thi?!!" Manik shouted while the men was looking at them

"Thank God I took this way! Otherwise mujhe pata hi nahi chalta that you're stuck here!! Agar kuch ho jata tumhai tou? Why you didn't come in my car haan? Bolo!!"

"Manik..you're just caring about why I didn't come in your car! Mere baare mein pucha tumne? Did you even once asked me how I am?" Nandini shouted equally. The men was still looking at them. MaNan were fighting like a married couple only :P

"No more talking now! Mujhe baat nahi karni tumse! Let's just go from here.." She went and say inside his car

"Godd!! Pagal hai yeh!" He mumbled and they finally left the place

Office
Manik's cabin

Manik narrated all to Barun that happen few hours ago..

Barun: What! Kya yaar Nandini bhi na!!

Manik: Yes! She is so stubborn!

Barun: Manik..forgive aunty na..I mean Nandini is right no? Aunty loves you and didn't want you to go away from her!

"Barun! I want to talk to mom! But.. whatever she did with Nandini, was wrong! she had to apologise to Nandini na! If you were in my place..then?" He said in a cold voice

"Yeah! Agar Sanaya ko kisine hurt kiya hota na tou main.." Barun abruptly stopped! He realised what he blurted out!

Manik: What? Sanaya?..what's going on Barun? Tell me now c'mon!

Barun: Yaar we love each other..we already confessed our love!

"Really!! Wow yaar congrats!! Bataya kyun nahi?" Manik hugged him

"There were so many tensions that's why I didn't tell you" Barun said as they broke the hug

Manik: I'm happy for you! Sanaya is a very nice girl..

"I know!" Barun smiled

Just then Nandini entered with some files..

"Congrats! Always stay happy!" Manik said

"What congrats? Barun kya hua? Mujhe bhi Batao na!!" Nandini exclaimed! She was excited to know about what they were talking..

"Why? Your best friend, Sanaya didn't tell you?!" Manik said sarcastically

"I asked Barun! Not you! And whatever I do, I don't need your permission!" She said in such a way which Manik didn't liked!

"Hello! Don't you dare talk to me like that! Don't forget..I'm your BOSS and you're my P.A!!" Manik was hell furious!

"Okay..fine! SIR!" What!? Sir?? Manik immediately gave her a 'What are you saying look'

Barun laughed a little but then control as Manik glared at him

Barun: Nandini..agar maine bata diya tou Sanaya mujhpe gussa hogi as she wants to tell you!

"But..Sanaya didn't tell me anything! Oh no! She wanted to tell me something this morning but I just interrupted her..!" Nandini said..she was still holding the files

"Arre It's okay! She'll tell you later..abhi main jaata hoon..I have works! You can carry on with your..umm..'SIR" He smirked at Manik and left the cabin

Manik: Nandini..what..

"Yeah woh sir..actually these are the files, I have already checked them!" She said as she placed the files on the table and was about to go

Manik: Nandini!!

"Yes sir?" She turned to his side "Are there more files to check sir?" Again sir!!

Manik was irritated now!! He did not like being called 'SIR' by his fiancé, his love, Nandini!

"Sir..what happen? Say.." before she could complete Manik pinned her to the wall! His grip on her arms tighten!

"Nandini!! Why are you calling me that?" He yelled at her

"What Sir?" She whispered

Manik: Shut up!! No! Not SiR okay!! Call me Manik only Nandini!!

"But..you only said that you're my boss! And I am your P.A sir! And how could a P.A called her boss by his name?!" She said in a manner as if she didn't know Manik

"When will this fight be over?" Manik left her arms..

"When..? you know that very well..!" She said looking in his brown eyes!

"And you very well know that I will not change my decision!" They were still looking into each other eyes

"Okay..!!" Both said and parted their ways!

***

"Sachi!! Congratulation Sanaya!!" Nandini hugged Sanaya as she told her about hers and Barun's relationship

"Tune mujhe bataya kyun nahi?" She asked as she broke the hug

Sanaya smiled: Yaar itne sare tensions the..phir morning ko aayi thi tujhe batane but you just..

"Yeah..sorry I just started telling you about our fight.." She said lowly..

"Nandu..I know you're dying to be with him, to talk with him!" She placed her hand on her shoulder "End this fight yaar.."

Nandini: No!! He's not listening to me then why should I haan? I'm not gonna end this fight till he don't talk to mom!

"Tu bhi na Nandu! You're just making it more difficult! It's late now I'm going..see you!" She hugged her and left

Nandini pov: Aiiyappaa this fight! But Manik is not even listening to me na..

"Yes Nandini! What did he mean by he'll not change his decision? He has to! If he will not then you will not end the fight right?" Her mind stated!

"But if he doesn't then? Nandu..can you stay away from him?" Her Heart asked

Nandini: No! I can't!! Aggrhh what should I do!? He just be okay na? I should call him!

Nandini called Manik but he was not answering

"Aiyyapaa I hope he's fine!"

She tried again and again but in vain!

"Sanaya is right! I'm just making things difficult! Mujhe sab kuch sort out karna hoga!! I have to talk to Manik! I have to end this fight! Manik..I really have to check him! Kahiin gusse mein usne..? No! Nandu.. think postive! yeah!"

"Mamma..main..I'm going to Manik's house..please main jaoun?" Nandini asked Koyal who was watching Tv

Koyal: But Nandu..Abhi? It's 8.30 pm beta

Nandini: Mamma please? Main taxi lekar chali jaungi..I will msg you when I'll reach there..It's important mamma..

"Did you had a fight with Manik..about Nyonika?" Koyal asked but Nandini remained silent. Koyal understood

Koyal: Manik bhi na..he'll take his mom side only..

Nandini: No mamma..he isn't taking her side! Infact..he's angry with his mom..mamma please I will explain to you this later..abhi main jaoun?

Koyal: Okay..but make sure to inform me as soon as you reach there okay?

"Hmm..see you..goodnight!" She kissed her cheek and hurriedly left for Malhotra mansion

***

"Haan..Nandini ma'am aap?" Ramu said as he open the door "Andar aiiyee.."

"Yes..woh Manik kahan hai? Room mein?" She asked as she came inside! She was worried for him!

Ramu: Haan..woh baba apne room mein hai! Apne dost ke saath!

"Dost? Maybe it's Barun!" She murmured and went towards his room

She was climbing the stairs..she heard voices from Mank's room! She instantly stopped

"Oh Manik!! I missed you so much!! I'm so sorry I was rude!" She heard it! It was a girl's voice actually!

"Who is in Manik's bedroom??!" She quickly climbed the stairs and reached Manik's room. She slightly push the door as it was not fully closed

She saw Manik was hugging a girl! She couldn't see the girl's face! She was on top of Manik! Yes! They were on the bed! That girl was so close to him! Nandini felt heart-broken, shocked, angry, all in one! Her eyes became moist seeing them so close!

"No! You were not! Infact I made a mistake! I missed you too Shraddha!"
