Mukti's room

"Bhabhi you and Abhi are childhood friends?" asked Mukti. "Ha" said Nandani while massaging Mukti's head with oil.

"So aapko toh sab kuch pta hoga fir Abhi k baare mai, right?" asked Mukti. "Yeah, I know his each and every secrets" said Nandani with a smile..

"So bhabhi he would be having a girlfriend nah, means he is so good-looking one so girls would surely used to drool over him?" asked Mukti..

"Girls drool over him but it was Abhi who use to run away. He stay away from the relationship thing." Nandani answered..

"Why? Is there any specific reason behind this?" asked Mukti..

"He always used to say that he haven't met with the girl yet whom he use to dream about. Once he would met her, he would make her his wife directly not his girlfriend." said Nandani chuckling. 

"Achaa" said Mukti getting flushed. "But one second why are you asking about him, ha?" asked Nandani suspiciously.

"Aise hi bhabhi." said Mukti trying to dismiss this topic. "Are you sure na Mukti? Is there anything you want to share?" asked Nandani raising her eyebrows.

"Ha ha bhabhi, aise hi pucha tha maine bss aap bhi nah." Mukti said. "But why do I feel like there is something and you are hiding it from your bhabhi?" thought Nandani doubtfully.

"Nandu I want to talk to you" said Abhimanyu as he saw Nandani coming outside from Mukti's room. "Ha Abhi, say na?" said Nandani.

"Umm don't you feel like now I should be mingle with someone?" said Abhimanyu scratching his neck. "Are you serious?" said Nandani not believing him...

"Now see na you are also married you would be busy romancing with your husband *Nandani glared him* then I also need someone na with whom I can talk" said Abhimanyu.

"Make friend then mingle ku hona h?" asked Nandani.

"Because I feel jealous to see you taking Manik's side always, I also need someone whom would take my side like a wife does" said Abhimanyu pouting. Nandani chuckled hearing that and said "then be mingle, start searching her".

"Won't you help me?" asked Abhimanyu. "What help do you need from me?" asked Nandani.

"You should look for that girl may be she is around you only." said Abhimanyu with a grin.

"Why should I look out? You want to be mingle na so you look out for that girl." said Nandani clearly.

"Kya Nandu ek help nhi kr skti? Apne aas pass dekh kya pta koi achii ladki mil jaaye?" said Abhimanyu hinting her.

"Thik h okay! If I would get any good girl then would let you know.  But now I have work to do, I have to go" said Nandani and left before Abhimanyu can stop her.

"She is smart one then also she didn't get whom I was hinting on?" thought Abhi confusingly..

*****************

Nandani was going towards Nyonika's room when Manik suddenly hold her hand and pulled her in his room leaving Nandani shocked. He bolted the door and trapped her between the door and his body.

"Aiyooo!! Manik who pulls like that?" said Nandani complaining.

"Kuch der phle pyar se bulaya tha. Pr pyar se bulane pr aati kha ho tum Nandani" Manik said shaking her head.

Nandani looked towards him then tried to go from left but Manik put his hand blocking her way. She looked towards him and then tried to go from right side but Manik again block her way with his another hand making Nandani irritate.

"Manik what do you need?" asked Nandani.

"A kiss, which was left in between" demanded Manik shamelessly. Listening this Nandani opened her mouth in O shaped and said "Haww!"

"What haww? I am demanding kiss from my wife only and there is no issue in that right?" said Manik trying to prove himself that he was not doing anything wrong here.

"There is issue Manik abhi abhi toh we have started fresh aur abhi itni jldi" Nandani was saying when Manik cut her.

"One sec, do you mean to say there is no romance in Arrange marriage?" asked Manik.

"Manik I haven't thought aap essi baat bhi krte hoge kisi se" said Nandani pouting.

"Aisi baatein? Kesi baatein Nandani?? I am talking with my wife only and I could talk about these things with you nah now as we have started fresh like a couple." said Manik teasing her.

"Move! jaane dijiye mujhe" said Nandani trying to push him but it was of no use.

"Jaane dene k liye thoda na pakda tha" said Manik with a proud grin. "Acha listen I would let you go if" added Manik.

"If?" asked Nandani looking in his eyes and putting her hands on his chest.

"You can go but before that you have to let me kiss you bss" said Manik in a demanding way and moved towards her lips. While Nandani at once put her hands on her lips blocking his way making Manik irritate.

 "Only one kiss Nandani then I would let you go promise" said Manik pressing her body with his body. 

"Manik please"  Nandani said looking downwards not knowing what to do. "Achaa okay if you don't want me to kiss you then leave this, we can do something else." said Manik like he is thinking something.

Nandani looked towards him when Manik gently stroked her cheek with his right hand and said "I can't kiss you, right. But you can toh kiss me nah. So, I want a kiss from you. KISS ME!" 

Nandani widened her eyes hearing his this demand. While Manik teased her saying "it's a kiss only Nandani, you don't need to blush for this."

"I am not blushing, why would I blush?" said Nandani trying to act well... 

"Acha then come on. Kiss me! I know you can do this. For your sake, I would close my eyes and you just have to just kiss bss, okay?" said Manik with a wide smirk...

"Voo Manik actually I need some time." said Nandani not looking towards him. Hearing this Manik moved away from her and said "Umm okay fine!".

Nandani looked towards him getting scared thinking that he would be angry now. "Aap gussa ho?" asked Nandani very cutely making him smile.

"Nah! Why would I be angry Nandani? Now it seems to be more interesting" said Manik. Nandani looked towards him not understanding what he is talking about. Manik looked towards her and said "you have stopped me today from kissing nah, very soon you would be kissing me that too in front of everyone by your own wish. I would not force you" said Manik winking her.

"And if I would not do this then?" asked Nandani.

"Let's make a challenge then within a week you are going to kiss me." said Manik keeping his hands in his pockets.

"Aiyappa! You know na too much over-confidence is bad!" said Nandani crossing her arms on her chest.

Manik curled her lips trying to hold back his smile and said "Nandani k Aiyappa ye confidence h ya over-confidence h that toh we would get to know in a week." 

Nandani looked towards him and try to read his face. "Aiyappa! what is running in his mind now. Pakka he is upto something."  thought Nandani.

"Vese Nandani as this is a challenge what if I would win than what would you give me?" asked Manik.

"Whatever you would say Manik." Nandani said slightly bending his face towards right side which Manik found too cute at that time.

"Soch lo, bad mai you would not say anything." said Manik teasing her. "Phle aap jeeto fir baat aayegi kuch deni ki na, I am sure I am going to win this." said Nandani.

"I liked you confidence wifey. But you don't know Manik Malhotra never lose any challenge. So, all the best!" said Manik with a lop-sided smile. Saying this he left the room.

***********

Manik was looking towards Nandani while Nandani was having fun with Abhimanyu and Mukti. Abhimanyu was just spilling their secrets which was difficult for Mukti to digest that her Bhabhi could be mischievous too. Nandani could feel Manik's constant gaze on her. She looked towards him but Manik not for once averted his gaze, he was then also staring her. Nandani blushes and averted her gaze tucking her hair strands behind her ear.

"Let's play something?" Mukti said..

"Let's play truth and dare" suggested Abhimanyu. "You guys play, I don't want to play" said Nandani and tried to go from there.

"Kya Nandu play nah? Don't spoil our mood." said Abhimanyu holding her hand and making her sit again.

"Abhi" Nandani tried  to glare Abhi. Seeing her giving glares to Abhimanyu, Manik chuckled whose eyes were on her only gaining everyone's attention. 

"Nandani do you really know how to be angry from anyone?" asked Manik smirking.

"Off course I know Manik. Why are you asking like that" asked Nandani..

"You look cute and funny while you glare anyone. The person in front of you would laugh on you when you would glare him. He would not be scared at all." said Manik making her pout. While Mukti too laugh on that and said "I agree bhai! Bhabhi doesn't know how to be angry from anyone."

Before Nandani could say Abhimanyu said "Then you both are highly mistaken, Nandu k gussa bhot dangerous h bhai. Sometimes toh she slaps you too while scolding you. I have faced all that."

"But I haven't seen her angry ever means I have seen her that she use to ignore the person, do not talk with him but I haven't seen her scolding anyone" said Manik...

"Bhai lucky you are! Ek bar gussa dekha na Nandu k toh you would pray to not see that again ever." said Abhimanyu teasing Nandani.

"Itna bhi nhi krti gussa mai ab" said Nandani defending herself. 

"Manik would get to know soon that toh. For now let's concentrate on game!" said Abhimanyu. Abhimanyu, Nandani, Mukti, Manik sit in a round form to start the truth and dare game.

Hows the part?

Need to know one thing as few of you wants ki Nandani na maane itni jldi and Manik should suffer, do you all want Nandani to not start fresh so easily? But from my point of view Manik is not that bad that he does not deserves this chance. He was rude with Nandani but he cared for her too. It was the the circumstances which made him behave like that, keep yourself on Manik's place and think agr aapka sath aisa ho then what you would do? Keeping the point that Nandani se pucha tha Manik ne on their first night that was she forced for this marriage to which she said No. Think about this and let me know what you think on this😊

What truth and dare questions would you think be gonna there😉 If you want any specific one you can suggest in comments. I would take few of them😜
