Mukti was walking in the park after the interview that she gave in ine of the fashion designing company. She was waiting for Abhimanyu as he was supposed to meet her up.

After talking with Nandini Abhimanyu was determined to take revenge from Mukti for pranking him. He stopped the car a bit far from the park. He slowly went behind her and scared her by lifting her.

"Ahh! Who the hell are you? Leave me...you idiot." Abhimanyu laughed and listening him she sighed.

"Abhi! You scared me!"

"Oh really? What did you say? Nandini bhabhi will not agree. She is very strick among you guys. Huh! Ek jhatke mein maan gayi woh." He complained to which she gave him a sheepish smile. Sighing with a smile he hugged her.

"Ugh! So finally...you will come to my house."

"Itni kya jaldi hai? Pehle ghar aao rishta leke. Phir dekhte hai papa ki haan hai ya na." Mukti said walking beside him.

"Tch! Don't worry. He will agree. Unko toh humare baare mein sab pata hai. Anyways. How was your interview?" He asked and she replied to his question positively. They continued to talk speanding their time.

After 3 days

Nandini came out getting ready in a simple saree but with a floral embroidery on it. Manik was getting ready in his casual clothes.

"Manik, please tie this na." She asked him showing the blouse strip. He moved closer and tied it.

"You know today you are glowing a lot. What's the reason?" He teased her making her blush.

"Shut up Manik. We have to leave soon. Aap jao aur dekho Abhimanyu aur baki ready huye ya nahi." Pecking her cheeks he went out of the room. Nandini chuckled and wore her earings and adored herself with simple neck piece.

Here Manik entered into Abhimanyu's room to see him all ready.

"Ready Mr. Malhotra?" He asked patting his back to which he just gave him small nervous smile.

"Don't be nervous. You toh already know them. Relax." He bobbed his head at Manik. There entered Dhruv pulling Kartik.

"Tch! Bola na bhai nahi aana mujhe. I have lot of work to do." Kartik said irritatedly. Manik frowned and asked him

"What's wrong?"

"Bhai! I have project to complete so I'm not coming." He said looking away. He didn't have any project it's just that he wanted to avoid Naira after he saw her friend Neil.

"Tere kaunse project's chal rahe hsi Kartik? Term khatam ho chuka hai. Chup chap ready ho jao aur chalo. Sab chal rahe hai. Akele ghar oe kya karoge?" Manik said making him sigh and was going to deny when he used the main card.

"Do you want me to tell your bhabhi? She will be upset seeing you behaving like this."

"Jaa raha hun! Bhabhi ko mat batana." He went to his room and bumped into Nandini on the way.

"Kartik, you aren't ready?"

"Going bhabhi. Umm bas 5 minute I'll come soon." Bobbing her head she turned to see three man coming out the room. She smiled brightly and told them to come down.

*******

There was ring on the door of Murthy's house. Mr. Murthy opened the door to see Nandini and others with her dressed.

He frowned and let them enter.

"Kya baat hai? Aaj bina bataye hi aa gaye. Aur tum sab itne dressed kyun ho?" He asked making them smile except for Abhimanyu who gave him a nervous smile.

"Well! Aaj main yahan aapki beti nahi balki Abhimanyu ki bhabhi banke aayi hun." He frowned and let them sit on the sofa.

"Samjha nahi main beta."

"Main Mukti ka hath mange aayi hun for Abhimanyu." Listening her he froze on his place. Malhotras were worried thinking about negative outcome.

Mukti knew about this and nobody else. She was standing on the stairs listening to their talks.

"Kuch kahenge nahi aap?" Manik asked being hell worried now. Nandini was tensed and so was Abhimanyu.

There was pin drop silence in hall. Out of nowhere Mr. Murthy shouted calling Mukti.

"Mukti! Bahar aao." Mukti shivered but eventually came down with other 2 sisters of hers. Seeing her Abhimanyu smiled and seeing Naira Kartik looked away. She was hurt seeing his behaviour but couldn't do anything.

"Papa...main..."

Instead of asking her Mr. Murthy stood up and moved towards Abhimanyu holding her hand. He held his hand and placed it in his. All smiled seeing this.

"Lo! Mujhe bataya kyun nahi ki tum aa rahi ho Nandini. In dono ne khud ko pasand kiya hai, main kaun hota hun inko rokne wala?" Nandini smiled listening his thoughts. Where as Mukti blushed listening him.

"Lekin rishta toh pakka karna padta hai na. Aur haan papa iss baar main puri taiyari ke sath aayi hun. Tilak kar lete hai. Vaise bhi someone is really desperate to get married." Nandini teased looking at Abhimanyu.

"Bhabhi! It isn't me only. Aapki behen bhi toh hai." Mukti made a haww face and showed him her fist making all chuckle.

"Acha since sab agree karte hai, Manik beta come with me. We will go in the market and come. Tab tak Mukti bhi ready ho jayegi." Manik agreed to him and they both left from there.

"Mukti...chalo I'll help you with the dress. Dhru, Abhimanyu and Kartik do whatever you want to do now." Saying this she pulled Mukti with her and Alia followed her.

"Mmm... I'll get something." Naira said and went into the kitchen to get some refreshments. She opened the fridge and took out orange juice and some snacks. Serving it she moved to serve them.

Abhimanyu and Dhruv took it happily where as Kartik didn't even bother to look at her or take the glass.

"Kartik here have so..." He just moved away ignoring her. She felt hurt. Abhimanyu and Dhruv frowned but didn't voice it out. Naira controlled hrt me tears and kept the tray on the table.

She mingled herself with Dhruv and Abhimanyu. After like 1&1/5 hour Manik came along with Mr. Murthy with some bags in their hands.

Even Mukti was ready now so they came down. She had worn floral anarkali.

They were made to sit together, Nandini had already prepared arti. She first put the chunri on her head which she brought it with her. And did her arti.

For a moment Mukti's teared up. Nandini was amazed seeing her like that. Giving the thali to Manik she moved and cupped her face in her hands.

"Hey! Kya hua? Aankhon mein aansu kyun?" She asked worriedly making others also notice and worried.

"It's... I don't know... I mean...aap meri behan ho aur aap..." She cried huggibg her. Nandini understood her inner turmoil.

"Shh! Bhale hi mera surname Malhotra se jud gaya hau isla matlab yeh nahi ki main teri behan nahi. Pagal hai tu. Stop crying now." Mukti bobbed her head and wiped her tears with a smile. Next Mr. Murthy came and did the tilak of Abhimanyu.

They later stared clicking pictures. When they stood with Malhotra's including Nandini and then Murthy's. Younger clan wanted to take pictures but when Kartik noticed he being standing close to Naira he moved away and stood beside Dhruv the other side making Naira sad.

They had lunch and by evening Malhotra's left with a happy note leaving Murthy's happy except for Naira.

How was it?
