"Neonika! Neonika!" Shouted worried Manik's dadi coming down from the stairs and almost waking up everyone. Neonika who was into the kitchen came out immediately.

"Kya hua ma ji?" She asked, dadi huffed and roaming her eyes around said

"Manik room mein nahi hai. Kabse dhund rahi hun use."

"Par aap use kyun dhud rahi hai? Aur woh bhi inti subah?" Neonika asked, dadi sighed and said

"Arey, mujhe kuch saman mangvana hai. Aur use hi pata hai woh jagah kahan hai. Dhundo sab usko." Once she said others who came out of their room except for Nandini and Manik. started searching him.

"Raj ji! Vahan kahan dhund rahe hai aap?" Neonika asked Raj who was looking down the sofa.

"Arey! Tumhara beta pata nahi kuch bhi kar sakta hai. Isliye neech bhi dhund raha tha." He replied showing his teeths making everyone laugh and her glare at him.

"Bhai bahar bhi nahi hai." Cabir said... He came and sat beside his father who took the newspaper without caring about his wife's glares.

"Aapko koi fikar hi nahi hai. Yahan Manik gayab hai aur aap sab baithe ho." Neonika cribled.

"Tai ji! Nandini bhabhi kahan hai?" Luv asked, settling beside her.

"I guess woh abhi so rahi hai." Navya replied. They bobbed their head and decided to wake her up, may be she would know where is he.

In Nandini:s room

Sunrise was peaking into the balcony but both Manik and Nandini were in deep sleep not knowing the chaos that was going outside the room.

Nandini sterd in her sleep and snuggled more into him. He tightened his hold on her and pulled her more into towards himself.

After few minutes he opened his eyes and looked around frowning.

"How did I land here?" He thought but then remembered what he had done. Shaking his head he smiled seeing his girl sleeping peacefully in his arms.

"This girl will be death to me one day." He murmured pecking her head. She slowly opened her eyes getting disturbed by his action and the sun.

"Mmm, what are you doing here?" She asked moving away from him.

"Haww! Don't you remember? Tumhare liye itni badi balcony chadi maine kal raat. Bhool gayi?" He said dramatically making her roll her eyes.

"Stop rolling your eyes at me." He said making her stare at him.

"Otherwise what you will do?" She asked and in response he pulled her holding her elbows closer to himself. His breathes were for falling on her face making her blush at their closeness.

"Stop rolling them. I have my ways to make them roll for good reasons." She blushed hard knowing his meaning behind the words.

"Shut up! Kuch bhi bolte ho." She pulled away making him smile. She got up when there was knock on the door.

"Hmm? Itni subah kaun ho sakta hai?" She mumbled moving closer towards the door.

"Nandini! Beta jaldi utho hume manu ko dhundhna hai." Manik's eyes widened listening his dadi's voice.

"Shit! Man! Main bhool gaya. Dadi... I need to leave." He said moving towards the door when Nandini held his hand.

"Pagal ho gaye ho kya? Sab kya sochenge agar tum mere room se bahar niklo ge? Kahi chup jao tum." Manik bobbed his head and started searching a place.

"Nandini, theek ho na?" The knocks went on making them nervous. Nandini slapped Manik's back who was going under the bed.

"Oww! Mara kyun?" He asked rubbung his back.

"Neeche nahi, balcony mein se jao." She said making his eyes widened.

"Nandini! Javab kyun nahi de rahi ho?"

"Ji, dadi abhi aayi. Woh...woh haan main phone pe baat kar rahi hun...bas 2 minute." She pushed him in the balcony and closed the door. Taking the phone she moved towards the door and opened it.

"Kya Nandini? Itni der kisse baat kar rahi thi?" Neonika asked moving inside.

"Woh..."

"Woh sab chodo. Pehle hume kittu ko dhundhna hai. Pata nahi subah se gayab hai. Tumse baat huyi kya Manik se?" She shook her head in denial biting her lower lip she looked back and again turned quickly to Neonika and dadi.

"Pata nahi kahan gaya hai. Tum neeche aao fresh hoke." She just bobbed her head and closed the door behind them.

The breath that she was holding left it and immediately ran towards the balcony to see it empty. She looked down to see Manik running away towards the front side making her sigh. Getting fresh she came out in black colour jeans and white colour tshirt with a shrug on it.

Once she came down she noticed Neonika scolding Manik badly and anyone could tell that she was hell worried.

"Maa, baccha thodi hun? Bas walk ke liye nikal gaya tha." She heard him say but when his gaze fell on her she narrowed her eyes as if asking him 'really'.

He glared at her and looked at his dadi with sad pout.

"Acha bas karo ab. Kitti ja aur fresh hoke aa. Kuch jaruri kaam hai." Bobbing his head he went to his room dashing into Nandini making her glare at him.

Time skip!

It was evening now, all were chilling having their evening tea in the backyard where the waterfall is attached to swimming pool.

(Imagine this to be attached with the pool.)

The elders were sitting on the passage and younger clan were in the swimming pool on the insistence of Luv Kush.

"Bhai volleyball khelte hai." Cabir shouted throwing the ball at Manik who was busy with Luv, Kush and Nandini.

"Fine! Bade log wanna join?" Manik asked them to which they bobbed their head except for dadi.

"Girls v/s boys!" Shouted Cabir making Manik stare at him.

"Seriously?" He bobbed his head. Agreeing to him they put the net on the edge of the swimming pool and took their position.

Navya threw the ball up in the sky hit it with her fist which directly landed on Raj's fist and he hit it back.

Nandini took the position and hit it with the fist making it fall on Cabir's face making everyone laugh.

"Bhabhi! Mera face mera haath nahi hai." Cabir cribled making Nandini a sorry face.

"Abey gadhe! In that case you should have been alert. Ball thodi na tujhe aake bolegi, main aa raha hun tumhare face pe. Idiot!" Manik said sarcastically making all laugh very badly.

They continued the game. The girls were 2 points behind the boys when Nandini threw the ball towards Manik and he deliberately let the ball free making all the boys groan.

"Papa! Inko liya hi kyun humne." Cabir cribled. Raj slapped Manik's head making him look away rubbing his head. They continued the game and at last the girls won and this time Raj let the ball fall for his wife's puppy face.

"Yey!!!! Hum jeet gaye." The girls shouted hugging each other.

"Dono baap bete ek hi hai. Huh! Chachu inko na next time lena hi nahi. Lattu!" Cabir said making all laugh again. They enjoyed their time with each other alot.

"Acha chalo sab. Bahut der ho gayi hai aur pani bhi thanda hone aaya hai. Bimaat padne se acha hai hum nikal le." Dadi said getting up from the place and others agreed. All came out of the pool and went up their rooms to get fresh.

Somewhere in the world!

A guy came out of his room and settled on the sofa and picked up his phone.

He smiled seeing the wallpaper of Nandini and called someone.

"Hello! Send me the flight details." Cutting the call he looked up at the ceiling.

"I'm coming Nandini. Finally! I'm coming." He mumbled and went back to his room and checked his luggage and went to call someone again.

Malhotra's farmhouse

"Navya beta, tumhe kuch chahiye?" Neonika asked seeing her standing at the kitchen door. She shook her head smiling.

"Nahi aunty. Socha aapki kuch help kar dun."

"Koi fayda nahi hai di. Maa ne mujhe bhi mana kar diya. Puchna bekar hai." Nandini said coming inside holding a glass in her hand.

Neonika chuckled and replied "Arey! Tum sab toh mehmaan ho. Aur mehmaan se kaam kaun karata hai."

"Maa please. Main mehmaan nahi hun. Chaliye ab jaiye aur main aur di sambhal lenge yahan ka." Nandini pushed Neonika out despite of her protest. Navya and Nandini started cooking.

"Tu lucky hai Nandini ki tujhe aisi family mil rahi hai. Tujhe ab kisi ki bhi darne ki jarurat hi nahi hai."

"Main kisi se nahi darti di. Bas ghar mein kuch log theek nahi the. Ab mujhe koi tension nahi. Atleast ek dadi ne mujhe apna toh liya hai. Ek maa ne mujhe pyar toh kiya hai." Nandini said making Navya smile sadly and look down chopping the veggies.

Dadi who had come to the kitchen listened to their talks. She felt bad for Nandini but she didn't knew the reason but she couldn't even go and ask her herself.

"Maa, Nandini ko dekha hai kya?" Manik asked coming down. Neonika stared at him and so did others. He looked up at them.

"Sab aise kyun dekh rahe hai?" He asked

"Biwi abhi tak bani hai, aur abhi se use dhund raha hai? Kya baat hai! Aisa raha toh maa ko toh bhool hi jayega tu." Neonika said pouting her lips. He chuckled and came towards her.

"Kya maa, aap toh maa ho aur meri zindagi ki pehli aurat hai aur rahi baat Nandini ki toh woh toh aapke baad hi aayegi. Aur main Nandini ko isliye dhund raha tha kyun ki uska phone baj raha hai kabse room mein."

"Lekin mera phone toh mere paas hi hai." Nandini said coming out of the kitchen showing him the phone. Neonika stared at him where as Manik squeezed his eyes tightly.

"Phone baj raha tha? Waah! Beta ji pata chala ab kya chal raha hai. Bol dete na ki Nandini ke sath time spend karna hai." Raj said patting his back making him pout. All laughed except for Nandini who was blushing looking down.

"Khana taiyar hai. Khana kha lo sab." Dadi said , they all moved towards the dinning table. Everyone had the dinner peacefully and when the time came to go to bed Raj said

"Aur haan! Manik. Balcony mein jaana hi hai na toh room se jaana na ki seedhi leke." Manik blushed hard where as Nandini hid herself behind him. All laughed and went to their room giving them privacy.
