I know a question has come in ur mind why the target is increased...well this is because I will be updating once in a month and you guys will get more time to complete the target till then... that's why...

Avoid mistakes if any...

It was around 10:30 in the night and Nandini and Kartik were in the hall waiting for Dhruv to come home also for Abhimanyu and Manik.

Kartik didn't listen to Nandini when she told him to go and sleep but he was abdamant of not going.

Nandini saw Kartik dosing off...she sighed and said

Nandini: Kartik I am telling you again...go and sleep...varna yahi baithe baithe so jaoge.

Kartik: it's ok...aur main so nahi jaunga....aap...

He was interrupt by the sound of breaking a vase...both of their eyes landed on Dhruv who was coming stumbling little.

Nandini and Kartik stood at once...they saw Dhruv saying something...

Dhruv: sab...aise hi hai...everyone is betrayals...

Dhruv was about to fall but Kartik and Nandini held him on time.

Nandini: Dhruv...what have you done to yourself?

Dhruv looked at her and then at Kartik...he smiled looking at her

Dhruv:bhabhi.....you are back!!!!!!

He squealed making Nandini stumble little as he moved alot...

Kartik: bhai sambhalo...

Dhruv: you.... Kartik...bhabhi he is very very naughty....

Nandini: Dhruv...room mein chalo...

Nandini knew this is not the time to talk to him... Kartik held hik tightly making sure he doesn't fall anywhere.

They took him to his room, while they were going Dhruv was continuously blabbering...

Kartik made him lie down on the bed and Nandini put the duvet on his body...

Dhruv: bhabhi...sab na ek jaise hote hai...dhokebaaz....

Listening him Nandini knew something has happened... Kartik removed his shoes and socks and kept it aside.

Dhruv: they are very bad...very...very bad....

Saying this he went into deep slumber... Nandini sighed getting up and Kartik too stood.

Nandini: tum logon bataya kyun nahi hume Kartik? Atleast we would have known what is the problem.

Kartik: batake bhi kya karte bhabhi... Dhruv bhai kaise hai hum sabko pata hai...

Nandini: matlab?

They moved out of the room and came in the hall talking... Nandini started cleaning the place where the vase was broken... Kartik also started helping her...

Kartik: matlab yeh ki...he is not like Manik bhai, Abhi bhai...unko jaldi bura lag jata hai...he easily trust people.... and if they do something he regrets it very badly...

Nandini: toh...that doesn't mean he will do something like this to himself...

Kartik: I know...but it all depends upon their mind...

Nandini:hmm... I'll speak to him tomorrow...tum jao so jao...

Kartik: yeh phek ke aata hun...

Nandini bobbed her head getting up from the floor and Kartik went out to go behind the house to throw away the pecies.

Nandini was about to turn at that time Manik alon with Abhimanyu came...

Manik: tum abhi tak jaag rahi ho?

Nandini (smiling): haan...mere sath Kartik bhi jagah hua hai...

Abhi: he? Voh abhi tak jaag raha hai?

Manik and Abhimanyu had a surprised look making Nandini frown...

Kartik: kyun bhai? Main jaag nahi sakta kya?

He asked coming inside and Manik and Abhimanyu turned to him...

Manik:nahi nahi...aisa nahi hai voh kya hai jo raat ko owl nahi ban sakta voh aak pehli baar ban gaya...

Listening him Kartik whined making Abhimanyu and Nandini laugh at it...

Kartik: jao tum log...main jaa raha hun sone...

Saying this he ran to him room... Nandini asked the two mens to get fresh she will heat the food...before they could Kartik came running down and hugged Nandini from behind and wished her

Kartik: good night bhabhi and good night bhais...

He said making all smile... Manik and Abhimanyu went to their room to freshen up. Nandini heated the food and kept it on the dinning table ans soon Manik and Abhimanyu came there.

Nandini served them and sat with them to give company...

Nandini: so how was the work?

Abhi: good...the deal is going good.

Nandini bobbed her head mumbling nice...

Manik: vaise Dhruv so gaya kya?

Listening him Abhimanyu went sad and Nandini remembered about the event that took place few hours before.

Nandini: haan he is asleep...

Manik bobbed his head and asked

Manik:did you eat?

Nandini: haan Kartik ke sath kha liya maine...aao dono khao... aur kuch chahiye?

They shook their head denying and continued to have their food. Nandini then went in the kitchen to keep the dishes.

Nandini entered their room after doing all the chores to see Manik already on the bed doing something on his phone.

She sat beside him on the bed and started thinking something... Manik saw her all lost...he kept his phone on the table beside the bed and kept his hand on her's which was on the bed making her look at him.

Manik: what's wrong? You look worried?

Nandini's POV

Should I tell him? What will ge do when he will come to know? I think it's better to tell him... I don't know Manik who you will react but I can't hide anything from you.

End of POV

Nandini sighed and kept her hands on his making him little serious looking at her expressions.

Nandini: Manik...today Dhruv...he came home all drunk...

As soon as she said she felt his hands going numb...she looked at him for some reaction...but his eyes devoted with nothing...but coldness...

Nandini: it's true...even Kartik told me today about how Dhruv was coming home all drunk when we were not there....

Manik: you are lying...

Nandini's eyes widened...she looked at Manik's eyes which were showing hatred...

Nandini: no Manik why will I lie? It's true...

Manik: so you think my brother will do it again when I have warned him...no you are lying I know...just don't utter rubish...

Nandini: Manik sachi... it's true... I saw him today...

Manik(shouting): Nandini!!!!! Just shut up... I don't want to listen anything...

Nandini: Manik.....

Manik(shouting): I said shut up...

Nandini flinched and closed her eyes tightly...she was scared with his anger...she was going to cry but she felt some soft tug...she opened her eyes and saw Manik looking at her softly...

Manik:what? Kaha khoyi ho? Kya bolne wali thi tum... kaho...

Nandini's POV

Was it dream?

Was I dreaming all that....no I can't say this to Manik... not so soon...but what if he gets angry...no no... I can't...he will not belive....

Ohh ayaipa... I will not tell Manik so soon...

No...

End of POV

Nandini: nothing Manik...voh parso meri classes start ho jayegi toh main keh rahi thi ki...ki

Nandini: haan...voh khana banana mushkil ho jayega...

Manik frowned listening her...ge thought something important it is...

Manik: what?

Nandini:haan...since I'll be leaving early in the morning phir dupahar ka khana main nahi bana paungi...

Manik: haan toh thik hai... what's the big deal I'll hire someone to cook don't worry...now sleep...

Saying this he tugged her in his arms making her relax...she hid herself in his arms...and soon the sleep took over them.

Nandini didn't tell Manik.
