Nandini looked at him frowning while Manik came to her turn her around held her plam n started walking backwards

He came extreme close to bed n than threw himself over there n pulled Nandini along with him n Nandini fell on him same like their last Diwali which was their first Diwali (epi 61 wala I hope u remember)

Looking deep into her eyes Manik made her forget the world n than slided down his hand from her shoulder to side of her waist n turn around Cmg up on her

Taking her ryt palm in his left plam he entwined it n pinned it on the mattress softly n started reducing the distance btwn them n hide his face in her neck

Nandini closed her eyes n gave him a lil access to kiss he gvg a soft kiss on her ryt side he nuzzled there n than came to her cheek towards her lips

Gvg a chance for her to free her hand Nandini cupped his nape n Manik captured her lips for a slow soft kiss

Kissing her for a long time Manik broke apart n than kissed her forehead n rested his body on hers catching their breaths

After a long time Nandini said

Nan-Manik.....lets go

Manik nodded n than Got up n Nandini too stood up quickly completing her make up they came down

Nandini asked Manik to call everyone for the puja n left to mandir to put the garland on God's idol

She was doing her work wen fab5 n navya n Manik came there n saw that how beautiful was the mandir n were waiting for mr malhotra

She had just finished her work wen kaka came n said

Kaka-choti dulhan bade sahab bola rhe hai

Bobbing her head Nandini walked to mr malhotra's room she knocked the door n mr malhotra asked her to come in as she entered she stood in front of him n mr malhotra came to her n said

Mr m-Nandini ek rivaz hai jo Diwali Mei hoti hai aur woh yeh hai k Diwali kuch sona ya chandi ya zaver kharidne hote hai isse laxmi ji humse khush hoti hai aur iss baar jab tumne diwali itni aachi tarike se manai hai toh iss rivaz ko kyu chodna isliye yeh tumhare liye hai

Saying this he handed her a big red velvet box n Nandini taking it open it n seeing that jewelry she said shockingly

Nan-dad

Mr malhotra smiled at her reaction n said

Mr m-yeh tumhara haq hai aur fir tum iss ghar ka malhotra's k sabse bada hissa ho aaj tumhari wajha se Mei aur Manik khush hai isliye yeh isse as a payment ya exchange mat samjo Mei hamesha se apni beti k liye shopping krna chahta tha aur aaj muje yeh mauka mila hai

Nan(softly)-dad lekin yeh Mei nhi le skti ho yeh Mei woh

Mr malhotra placed his hand on her head n said

Mr m-Manik ko apna manti ho na

Nandini bobbed her head n mr malhotra continued

Mr m-jaise Manik tumhara hai waise hi uski har ek chiz uske har ek baat uske zindagi Mei har ek insaan woh sab bhi tumhare hai........aur waise bhi yeh haar (necklace) meine usse paise se kharida hai jo kaal Manik ne muje diye the uski pehle Kamai se aur jitna haq mera uss paise pe hai utna hi tera bhi hai aur muje pata hai k tu paise nhi legi isliye yeh........chal ab Mei jata ho tu bhi jldi aaja isse pehen k

Saying this he left from there leaving n confused n nervous Nandini behind

Here fab5 were waiting for them n Nandini looking at that necklace was getting more nervous she was sweating a lil n also her breathing had become fast

Mr malhotra joined the rest n they saw Nandini was not there n before anybody could say anything mr malhotra said to Manik

Mr m-jaa woh mere room mei hai lekar aa usse aur jldi aana

Without argument Manik left to mr malhotra's room n without knocking he came in n saw Nandini looking down in her hand sitting on the bed all lost he came to her n asked softly

Ma-hey Kya hova

Hearing the voice of whom she wished to hear now Nandini got up n looked at him n than again at the box n showed him opening it

Nan-dad ne diya hai for Diwali n he wants me to wear it now

Ma-wats the problem in that

Nan-Manik you know that I m not use to this heavy jewelry aur abhi sab bhar bhi hai

Ma-so? .............Toh Kya hova yeh dad ne diya hai n there is nothing wrong in that

Saying this he took the box from her removed that necklace from that n turned Nandini around moving all her hair on one side he placed that necklace on her neck n feeling that cold metal on her skin Nandini closed her eyes n opened wen she heard Manik saying.

Necklace

Ma-this is ur ryt so never move back from claiming it

Tired of their claiming rights n all Nandini said

Nan-tum malhotra's kabhi aise sweet sa chotu sa gift nhi de skte hai

N Manik replied while tying the necklace for her

Ma-well u get wat u give tumne hume itni saari khushi de di iske badle this is very small n ab aadat dal do in chizo ki coz ab se tum bhi malhotra hi ho for us n we will not leave any chance to spend on u samji .........ab chale bhar sab hai

Keeping the box properly Nandini removed her dupatta n than opening it she covered her self from her neck to her navel in such a way that her necklace could be hidden bt her net dupatta was not covering it 100 %ly

Holding his hand both came out n towards mandir n than Cmg there she came forward lite the diya in aarti ki thali n gave it to mr malhotra this tym navya sang the aarti n after a lil aarti mr malhotra handed the thali to kaka than kaka gave to Nandini n Nandini through eyes asked dhruv n cabir to do the puja

Gvg them the plate she took aarav from navya's hold n than cabir gave the puja plate to the girls navya mukti n aaliya together did the puja n by the time cabir took aarav from Nandini as next was her turn

Doing the puja navya gave the plate to Nandini n than Manik came ahead n manan did puja together completing the puja Nandini did tika to mr malhotra gave him prasad n than took his blessings n wished him Diwali like this she did tika to everyone n gave prasad

Than they all came out n sat on sofa having a normal chit chat session bt Nandini was being cautious abt the necklace while rest they joked laughed talked n got to knew abt each other soon it was time for dinner n Nandini was abt to get up to serve dinner wen mr malhotra said to her strictly

Mr m-Beth ja tu subhe se bas kaam hi kr rhi hai meine itne saare naukar rakhe kyu hai

Nandini tried to protest bt all in vain n so Nandini gave up

The dinner was served n they all had a good dinner during dinner only all got more comfortable with each other n there was happy aur in the mansion

Boys laughters n girls non stop talking could be heard for the first time in the mansion while eating only the girls n boys teased each other n this it resulted to have a panja ladane ki competition after Dinner

In btwn the dinner kaka came to mr malhotra with a brown envelope n said to him forwarding that to him

Kaka-sahab yeh aaya hai

Mr malhotra knew wat it was so taking that from him n without opening that he forwarded to Nandini n said

Mr m-yeh le teri amanat

Taking that from him Nandini wiped her hands from the small napkin over there n thanked mr malhotra than she stood up from her place leaving her food mid way n went upstairs leaving everyone curious abt it

Keeping the envelope in its place Nandini came back n silently finished her food that she left mid way

After the dinner was done they came to hall n all played panja game n were enjoying at one point mr malhotra n Manik came face to face n all hooted for them

It was late of nite n mr malhotra needed to be given medicines so Nandini declared to end the day n they had to oblige

Nandini went in the kitchen n warmed a glass of milk for him n than taking his medicine she came to mr malhotra's room n knocked the door

On the other side fab5 n navya dcd to chng n come n have some fun

Nandini entered inside the room to see n mr malhotra sitting straight reading some books she came to him n he sat straight keeping his book aside to eat the medicine consuming it with milk Nandini took the glass from him n was abt to leave wen mr malhotra called her

Mr m-Nandini

She turned around n mr malhotra said

Mr m-thode der Beth na

Nandini quietly sat in front of him n smiled n to start a conversation he asked abt aarav coz navya looks of same age of fab5 so Nandini told him all from start how they met harshad navya's craziness for him his trap their revenge n navya's pregnancy n with this other other topics came for discussion at last Nandini said

Nan-dad aap hamare Sath Mumbai chaliye na hamesha hamesha k liye

Mr malhotra got straight face after hearing this n was confused wat to say as he can't come n he don't want to deny her while Nandini continued

Nan-ab toh aapke aur Manik k bich sab thik hai toh fir kyu..........woh ghar bahut akela lagta hai usse aur aap bhi yahan akele hai so kyu kr rhe hai aise

She was saying bt she was kneely observing his expressions n knew that it will take time for them to settle down so she said calmly

Nan-aacha thik hai iss baaremei baadmei soch na bt yeh wali baat toh maan lijiye

Mr m-kaun si?

Nan-dad yeh haar (necklace) aap plz isse wapas le lijiye

Mr malhotra were gng to say something bt Nandini said

Nan-le lijiye bt mera hi rahega........dad Meine pehle kabhi itne expensive jewelry nhi pehni hai aur all of sudden wearing it is a lil uncomfortable aur fir isse sambhalna bahut badi zimmedari hai............aur waise bhi muje aana toh aaplog k pass hi hai na toh Mei yeh abhi Sath rakhu ya baadmei Kya farak padta hai..........n I promise Mei khud aapse yeh mangugi jabhi bhi muje chahiye hoga tabhi

Understanding her pov mr malhotra smiled n said to her

Mr m-thik hai yeh le (gvg her his cupboard keys) apne hatho se isse rakh de

Nandini took the keys n opening it removed the box n than unhooking the necklace she properly placed it in the box kept it safely inside the locker locking it again she handed the keys to mr malhotra again

She came to him n said

Nan-ab aap sojaye

removing his specs n closing his book making him lay down n covering him with his duvet n than turn to him n said

Nan-dad woh envelope k liye thank you

Mr malhotra smiled in reply n than closing the lights n taking the empty milk glass she came out closing the door behind

Here fab5 were in the hall chatting wen Nandini came out with the glass n without saying moved in kitchen to keep it

Seeing her gng Manik stood up n wished them good nite n without waiting moved in kitchen

Here Nandini placed the glass in its place checked all the stove were closed.closing the window she turn around to see Manik standing exactly infront of her n she gasped n than said

Nan-Manik........aisi koi aata hai kya

Ma-shut up

Saying this he picked her up n started walking wen Nandini said

Nan-Manik put me down I have to close the lights

He came near the kitchen switch board n said eyeing to it

Ma-close

Nandini closed the lights n Manik moved out she again started protesting

Nan-muje main door bhi check krna hai aur

Manik headed towards stairs n said

Ma-woh butler kar lenge

Nan-man

N after that Nandini stayed quiet n he took her in his room
