Aarav has told the guard not to let Manvi enter the premises at any cost. The guard agreed and Aarav went back inside the house "nackchadi ladki.. Ghar mein ghusne nahi dunga mere! Bhai ko pata chala na bike ke baare mein meri shamat aa jayegi! Bas bike repair hoke aa jaye fatafat"

Nitya and Aniket came out of the room. Nitya looked at the time and it was 7pm, she said "mannu ne kaha tha ki 6 baje tak aa jayegi.. Aarav kaun aaya tha? Mannu thi?"

"Nahi bhabhi maa.. Badtameez ladki thi ek" Aarav informed her. 

Manvi checked her phone for the address, she stopped a passing man on the street and asked him about the house. He pointed towards the same bungalow "aap iske aage toh khadi hai" 

Manvi was shocked, she bits her lower lip in between her teeth and thinks "maltab main sahi ghar aayi thi" 

She walked back towards the main gate but the guard stopped as instructed by Aarav not to let her enter in. 

Manvi argued with the guard "dekho.. Meri Di Nitya Raichand rehti hai! So let me go"

"Maaf kijiye chote sahab ne mana kiya hai meri job chali jayegi" he spoke helplessly.

Manvi smirked at him and said "Aur agar bade sahab ko pata chala tumne unki biwi ki behen ko roka hai toh tum iss shahar se jaoge"

The guard was scared, so he let her enter the premises. Manvi thanked him and rang the bell again. She kept on pressing the doorbell, Aarav opened the door and spoke in a cold tone "doorbell kharab karogi kya??"

"Nahi.. tumhara muh tod dungi! How dare you shut the door on Manvi Gupta's face! Iss face ki value pata hai tumhe??" she shouted at him.

"Dekho mujhe tum mein koi interest nahi hai! Ye apni nackchadi se shakal leke dafa ho jao yahan se.." Aarav argued with her.

Nitya and Aniket exchanged glances with each other. Nitya looked at Kaushalya who was boling in anger hearing their conversation. Nitya moved to the door and said "mannu.."

Manvi looked at Nitya and jumped on her excitedly "Di....."

Aarav was shocked to hear this, he was in trauma for a few seconds when Manvi addressed Nitya as her sister. "Oh my god Di... I am so happy to see you after so many years" she said cheerfully.

Nitya smiled and caressed her hand "main bhi bahut khush hun tujhe aise dekh ke.."

They parted the hug and Manvi looked towards Aniket. She pushed Aarav a side, he was about to fall but grabbed the wall.

Manvi folded her hands in front of Aniket "jijaji.. Aapke baare mein jitna suna tha usse zyada handsome ho aap!" she said, praising him.

Aniket smiled "Thank you manvi.. Tum bhi kuch kum nahi ho" he said.

Aarav murmured "bandariya hai... pata nahi bhai ki aankhon ko kya ho gaya hai"

Kaushalya looked at her and didn't like the way she was speaking frankly to Aniket. Nitya came to her and whispered "mannu.. Over excited mat ho.. Maaji ka jaake ashirwad le"

Manvi eyed Kaushalya who was sitting on the couch. Manvi approached Kaushalya and gave her a tight hug. Kaushalya choked with her move... "auntyji..."

Aniket was staring at her and trying hard to control his laughter. Manvi said "aap toh sabe young hai iss ghar mein.. Hum toh ek dusre ko best friends honge"

Kaushalya asked her to leave her, and Manvi parted. Kaushalya looked at her and said "paagal ladki.. Badho se aise baat karte hai kya? Tameez nahi sikhayi hai tumhare maa baap ne"

"Oohoo toh aap meri Di ki typical saas hai.. Lo aapke paav chu leti hun" she bends and touches her feet.

Kaushalya asks her to leave her feet but Mani refuses until she gives her the blessings. Kaushalya finally blesses and Manvi stands up straight "hai daiya.. Meri kamar ki akad gayi!" she said dramatically.

Nitya closed her eyes and covered her face with her palm "abtak ye ladki nahi seekhi.. Kiske saamne kya bolna hai.. Kya karun main"

Aniket whispered in her ears "kuch mat karo.. I am liking her! Maa ki bolti hi band kardi"

Nitya stared at him and said "haan baad mein maa barsengi mujhpe!"

Manvi looked at Aarav and pointed her finger towards him "Tum! Iss ghar mein kya kar rahe ho??"

"Ye mera ghar hai! Aur tum iss ghar mein aayi ho" he showed his finger to her.

"What?? Matlab Di ke wo laadle devar tum ho jo unhe bhabhi maa bulata hai" Manvi said in a state of shock. Aarav smiled and shook his head in yes.

Nitya and Aniket were confused, bewildered, and surprised to know they already know each other. The way they were behaving it seemed they shared a hate relationship with each other.

Nitya stopped them "bas.. Aise lad rahe ho jaise abhi ek dusre ko maar daloge.. Hua kya hai?" she questioned.

"Di.. kal raat galti se maine iski bike tok di thi.. Sorry bhi bola par mujhe attitude dikhaya isne.. Aur uska badla liya isne mujhe contract na deke.." Manvi said with a hateful tone.

"Tameez tumhe nahi hai, boss se baat tu tarak karke baat karogi toh aisa hi karunga main! Mujhe apni insult nahi karani hai tumhare apna model banake" Aarav confronted her.

Aniket was shocked to know that his bike was damaged. He eyed him and asked "Aarav bike kahan hai?"

Aarav looked at him and gulped down his throat. He smiled innocently and blamed "iski galti hai bhai.. Main toh red light pe khada tha isne takkar maari aur phir baad mein side mirror bhi toda"

"Aur tumne mujhe batana zaroori nahi samjha" Aniket said angrily.

Nitya spoke "jaane dijiye Aniket.. Aarav tumhe lagi toh nahi kahin?" she asked in concern.

"Nahi bhabhi maa.. Iska bas chalta toh car mere upar hi chada deti" Aarav told her.

Manvi gave him a look and shouted "zaroor chada deti.."

Kaushalya had enough of her nonsense and rude behavior towards Aarav. She shouted "e ladki.. Kya car chadane ki baat kar rahi ho mere bete pe! Nitya kaha tha maine tumse mat bhejo Aarav ko bahar par nahi tumhe toh karni apni hi hai.. Agar kuch ho jaata ise toh.."

Aarav sighed deeply and said "Maa relax.. Kuch nahi hua hai mujhe.. Please bhabhi maa ko aap beech mein mat layie."

"Toh kya karun? Aate hi ye ladki tujhse lad rahi hai.. Maryada ka koi khayal hi nahi hai! Apne jija se chipak chipak ke baat kar rahi hai.." Kaushalya insulted Manvi.

Manvi was shocked to hear her words. Nitya said "maaji.. Mannu hamari shaadi mein nahi aa paayi thi na toh bas isliye thoda excited ho gayi"

Kaushalya eyed her and said "jo bhi ho.. Khana khilake rawana kar yahan se ghar ka mahol mujhe aur kharab nahi chahiye" she walked to her room.

Manvi looked at Nitya and asked "Di.. aunty aapse aise kyu baat karke gayi? Main toh bas aise hi thodi masti kar rahi thi aur ye mere baare mein.."

"Kuch nahi mannu.. Jaane de chal khana khate hai" Nitya said, looking towards Aniket who understood her signal.

"Haan Mannu.. Aaj toh sab tumhari pasand ka bana hai" Aniket said diverting the topic.

Manvi agreed and headed towards the dining table with them. She smelled the food and licked her lips "khane ke khushboo se hi uchal rahi hun main.."

Manvi took the plate and lifted the lid of the container, Aarav immediately poured it into his plate and smiled at her.

Manvi gave him a look, Aniket said "mannu baitho..."

She sat down, Aarav took each and everything that Nitya cooked before Manvi. Manvi reacted to his actions ''Excuse me ye sab mere liye bana hai toh tumne mujhse pehle kyun liya?"

"Kyuki bhabhi maa ke haath ka bana hua khana main sabse pehle khata hun.. Bhai se bhi pehle" Aarav gave her a savage reply.

"What... ek din baad mein le loge toh kuch ho nahi jayega" Manvi argued.

"Tum aayi ho na baad mein toh baad mein tum lo.." Aarav spoke sarcastically.

Before Manvi could speak something Nitya interrupted "kya tum dono pehle khana kaun lega pe lad rahe ho? Khana khao chup chap warna dono ki plate le lungi"

Aarav and Manvi nodded and ate the food while staring at each other with hate.

Manvi praised the food "Di.. aapke haath khana toh best hai!"

Nitya smiled hearing her words, Aniket asked "mannu tum Mumbai mein kisi kaam se aayi thi?"

"Haa jiju.. Ek modeling aur bahut bade designer agency se offer aaya tha mujhe! Jiske liye maine apna Delhi ka contract cancel kiya aur ab uska boss itna sadiyal hai ki apni baat se mukar gaya" Manvi spoke staring at Aarav with extreme fire in her eyes.

Aarav didn't bother about it, he smiled "kyuki mujhe shauk nahi hai ghamandi.. Nakhchadi aur badtameez ladki ko apne designs ka face banane ka."

Aniket sighed and stopped them "Acha koi nahi.. Aur bhi companies hai yahan pe mannu"

"Yes jiju.. AR fashions se behtar hai aur offers bhi ache hai! Ek project mila hai mujhe.. Toh abhi 1-2 mahine main yahi hun" Manvi said.

Nitya was elated hearing her, she asked "Aur rahogi kahan?"

"Di hotel mein.. 2 mahine ke liye kya hi flat lun? Aur aap janti ho aasan nahi hai Mumbai mein flats milna" Manvi said.

Aniket thought for a moment if Manvi stays with Nitya. It will be a change for her and she will not think about Kaushalya's tantrums and sorrow. Aniket said "mannu apni Di ka ghar hote hue tum hotel mein kyun rahogi? Yahi ruk jao.."

Nitya looked at Aniket with a smile as he spoke her words. Aarav and Manvi shouted in unison "nahi.." and got up from their respective chairs.

"Do mahine.. Do second bhi yeh yahan nahi rahegi" Aarav was against Aniket's decision for Manvi to stay at home.

Manvi eyed him with narrowed eyes and shouted "Ab toh main yahi rahungi! Kyuki jo tum kahoge wo main manne nahi waali hun"

They argued while Aniket and Nitya sighed in disappointment. Kaushalya was standing at the door of her room crossing her arms across her chest. She took a heavy breath and thought "ghar ki shanti bhang hogi ab."
