In Malhotra Mansion

Manik came back home with a smile, a adoring smile. The Malhotra younger clan were chatting with their mothers. Cabir was about to crack a joke but he stopped after seeing Manik.

Cabir: Arey Bhai, aap aa gaye..

But there was no response, arey bhai our Majnu was still in his angel's thoughts so he couldn't hear whatever his brother was saying. By hearing Cabir everyone turned their attention towards Manik. They saw him smiling like a fool..Cabir went near him.

Cabir: Bhai, aap kuch bol kyu nahi rahe hai ?

Alas!! Manik was just moving forward smiling all the way. Nyonika was looking at Manik carefully and turned towards her sister-in-laws with an astonished look. Mukti got annoyed with Manik's behaviour and she clicked her fingers in front of him and called ' Bhai ' but the response was same. Finally he came out of his trance when he got tripped and fell on the couch.

Manik: Ouch!! What the hell!! How did I land up here ??

Cabir: Arey aapko yaad nahi hai Bhai ? You came by a flight !!

Manik: What!!

Mukti: Kya what Bhai!! Hum kabse aapko bula rahe hai aur ek aap hai ki bas muskurathe hi rahthe hai. Aap pagal ho gaya hai kya ?

Manik was totally embarrassed and was looking here and there.

Manik: Umm..wo..sorry..mere dhyan nahi tha!!

Dhruv: Kyu ? Aap kaha kho gaye the ?

Manik ( replied immediately ): Kahi nahi..haa..bas..office ka kaam..

Cabir ( shocked ): Tum apne dimaag raste mein kahi bhej diya hai kya ?

Mukti: Wese mujhe ye nahi patha tha thi ki aaj kal office mein entertainment hi kaam tha.

Manik: What the hell is wrong with you guys ? Kya bakwas keh rahe hai ?

Mukti: Exactly..bakwas hi tho keh rahe hai..par farak ithna hi hai ki hum nahi balki aap keh rahe hai..koi insaan office ke kaam ke wajah se muskurathe hai kya ?

Manik: What!! I wasn't smiling..not at all..

Dhruv: Tho phir hum sab sapna dekh rahe the..Cabir, Mukti..chal hum sab tho so rahe the..ya phir day dream kar rahe the..wo bhi Manik Bhai ki smile..

Manik: Dhruv, Mukti aur Cabir tho pagal hai..tu kabse in logon jaise ban gaye...Mums, I am dead tired..mujhe sona hai..aap khana laga dena..

Nyonika: Khana nahi milega tujhe aaj..

Manik( horrified ): Kyu ? Aaj strike hai kya ?

Arpita: Ji Haan..

Manik: Par kyu ? Aaj kisne galati ki hai ? ( It was a rule of Malhotra ladies that if any of the member does anything wrong then the whole family wont get food until the person doesn't apologise or try to mend his mistake )

Anjali: Manik Malhotra ne..

Manik: What!!! Meine kya kiya ?

Nyonika: Aapne jhoot bola..

Manik ( nervous ): Nahi Mom...

Arpita ( glared ): Manu..

Manik: Wo..actually..

Anjali: Teek hai, aaj no khana..hum jaa rahe hai..

Manik: Arey Mumma..nahi nahi..wo..actually I got a new friend.

" WHAT "

Manik: Aap log chilla kyu rahe hai ?

Cabir: Tho phir aur kya karoon ?

Mukti: The MANIK MALHOTRA who has nofriends except my boyfriend and their ( Cabir and Dhruv ) girlfriends, aryamann and maddy has made a new friend.

Dhruv: Its unbelievable!!

Manik: Ho gay tum theenon ka ? Yar..mein bhi ho insaan hoon..its quiete natural to make new friends..haan i agree I dont make friends easily..but she was soo sweet so I made her my friend.

Cabir: Ohh like that..soo..wait..did u just say SHE ?

Manik ( phas gaya ): Haann..ab girls ko she nahi tho kya he bolega kya ?

Dhruv ( not convinced ): Mathlab your new friend is a girl ?

Manik: Yep!!

Mukti almost fell off the couch, cabir's eyes popped out of its sockets and dhruv was still in shock..Cabir was the first one to come out of the shock, he went and checked Manik's forehead..

Manik: WTH Cabir !!

Cabir: Bhai, tere tabiyat tho teek hai na ?

Manik: Kyu, mujhe kuch hona hai kya ?

Cabir: Arey nahi, You said you made a girl your friend, so you should have fever to blabber such things.

Manik ( sarcastic ): Thanks for the concern. Par mujhe fever nahi hai.

Cabir: Fever nahi hai..tho chalo mere saath..

Manik: Kaha ?

Cabir: MENTAL ASYLUM.. aapko fever nahi tho zaroor aap pagal hogaye hai..warna aap kabhi girls ke paas tho nahi jaayenge..

Manik rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Manik: Shut up Cabir. Mums...

But he saw his mums smiling at him..

Manik: Lo, hum yaha lad rahe hai aur aap log muskura rahe hai.

Nyonika: Tum log tho humesha ladthe hai, aur uske badd gale bhi lagathe hai..ismein konsi nayi baath hai ?

The youngsters smiled at her.

Mukti: Wese Bhai, How come you became friends, there should be a story..please tell us na..

Manik smiled and narrated the whole thing, their first meet, their first fight, and their chaat experience with each other, at last their friendship. Manik had a constant smile while talking about Nandini and it was noticed by his siblings and mothers.

Cabir: Daadu ko bhi patha tha ? Phir unhone mujhe kyu nahi bataya ? After all we are crime partners.

Manik: Kyunki mene use mana kiya..

Mukti: Par kyu ?

Arpita: Kyunki thab uss ladki ne friendship nahi ki thi balki Manik Malhotra ki ego ko hurt ki thi..hai na Manu ?

Manik smiled sheepishly and nodded at her.

Dhruv: Jo bhi ho, kuch tho baath hai uss ladki mein, warna jis ladki ne apne ego ko hurt kiya ussee ladki ko Manik Malhotra kabhi dosth nahi banatha..

Anjali: Wese whats her name ? How does she looks ? Manu, do you have her photo ?

Manik: Arey shant mumma, shaant..I don't have her photo..how could I ask, we just became friends..and her name...( he smiled ) her name is NANDINI..

After hearing ehr name, the Malhotra ladies were taken aback.

Nyonika: Come again Manu, I didn't hear it properly.

Manik ( composed himself ): Her name is Nandini..

The ladies looked at each other with a surprised look but chucked their thoughts.

Mukti: She has a beautiful name.

Manik: And a beautiful face..and a much more beautiful heart..

" Ooohh "

Manik realized that he poke loudly so he ruffled his hair..

Manik: Umm..mujhe washroom jaana hai..

He literally ran from there leaving others surprised with his behaviour..

Nyonika ( smiled ): Shayad hume apni badi bahu ki intzaar karne ke zaroorat nahi ab..

Arpita ( excited ): Haaye...mein tho aur wait nahi kar sakthi..

Anjali ( equally excited ): Mein bhi..I just wanted to see her.

" Hume bhi " The younger clan shouted making the ladies smile.

Next Day..

In Jannat

Nandini's POV

I woke up early today, the thing which I hate the most. But kya karoon..Bhayyus ne call kiya tha..my irritation flew away when they said we are gonna meet each other again. I woke up at six, they said the wanna surprise me, I wonder will they ever stop surprising me. I feel like I am a princess, and if there is something lacking in my like then that's the feeling of my broken family. Par koi nahi, I will make it right. Right now, I am standing in front of Jannat with my Bhayyus..Viren Bhayyu has covered my eyes with his palm..

Nandu: Bhayyu, why are you covering my eyes ?

Viren: Because, its a surprise.

Nandu: Of course, its a surprise. 15 saalon se mujhe surprise hi tho mil rahi hai aap sab se.

Rithvik: Tho chup ho jao. Aur aage bado.

I huffed in anger and started walking, while I could hear my Bhayyus chuckling at my behaviour..Its their fault after all..We reached somewhere..I think its our garden or lawn..cuz I could feel grass under my feet..Viren Bhayyu took his palm away.

Asad: Now, you can open your eyes princess.

I opened my eyes and blinked it twice to adjust with the sunlight. I saw 4 people standing in front of me, actually they were ladies. I went forward and looked at their faces carefully. I was shocked, surprised, happy, excited..what not..I could feel wet on my cheeks and I realized I was crying. They stretched their arms wide with tears in their eyes, I looked at my Bhayyus to confirm I wasn't dreaming. They nodded at me with tears, cuz they were also crying. I ran towards them and stopped in front of them in confusion.

Nandu: Whom should I hug first ?

1st lady: Whom you love the most.

Nandu: I love you 4 as much as I love my mumma.

2nd lady: Really?

3rd lady: So what should we do now ?

4th lady: Why don't we hug together ?

I bobbed my head and the next seconf I was in their arms weeping..

" I missed you "

They broke the hug

1st lady ( kissed mu forehead ): We missed you too PARI..

Nandu: Nahi, aap jhoot bol rahe hai, sweety maa..

2nd lady: Arey jhoot nahi pari..

Nandu: Hai, warna aap mujhe abhi thak call kyu nahi kiya..mein tho 2 din pehele India aayi thi.

3rd lady: Because, we wanted to surprise you.

Nandu: Sachi Mumma ?

4th lady: Muchi baby princess..

Nandu: Aap jhoot nahi bol rahi hai na Hema Maa..

Hema: Nahi Baba, we love you baby, then how can we not call you ?

Nandu: I love you ( and kissed her cheeks )

Yes, they were none other than Murthy daughter-in-laws, who came to see their Pari..

Rudr: Chalo, hume lagtha hai hume koi bhool gaye hai..

Karan: Wahi tho, hume tho jaana chahiye..

Shivaay: Ab beti aagayi tho bete ke kya zaroorat hai ?

Om: Sirf moms nahi na, humari behen bhi tho hume bhool gaye hai..

Sid: Aur nahi tho kya, abi thak ' bhayyu' kehke peeche chal rahi thi aur ab dekho isse tho sirf moms hi chahiye.

I looked at Bhayyus and turned to moms, they too have a disbelieving look on their faces like mine.

Nandu: Chalo mummas, hum inke bina hug karthe hai, inhe tho koi farak hi nahi..

But soon we were hugged by Bhayyus. I smiled and whispered 'I love you ' to them and in return I got ' we love you the most '...

End of Nandini's POV

Its been 3 weeks since Nandu has reached India. She became one of the best doctors in Manjeet ( hospital ). She was just waiting for a chance to meet her DJ. She doesn't want to create any drama to see her DJ, she wanted her destiny to make her meet DJ. She believed in her GOD and her Daadi's GOD so much that she was sure that one day her DJ will meet her no matter what.

The same happened when Manik asked her to meet him. Manik badly wanted to meet her ,he even told that his mums wanted to meet her but she left it to destiny..her reply was ' if we are destined to meet then we will meet again just like how we met 2 times before we start our friendship '..Manik could just adore her innocence and her belief in GOD even after staying in London.

It was a fine morning, and a car was moving in such a high speed on the road. Inside the car..

Man: Drive the car fast Raman...My conference is within 10 minutes..

Raman ( driver ): Ji saab..

He increased the speed again and was turning right in the same speed that he couldnt' see the truck coming from other side. The car just got crashed with the truck and it rolled down to a junle nearby. The man and the driver was thrown out of the car in the pool of blood..People came near the car and spotted them. They saw the man and recognized him and without wasting any time took them to hospital...
