Nandini was sitting all excited, showing her battissi to Manik who was just looking at the diary that she handed over to him with a shocked, scared, horrorstruck face.

Nandini: (excited) Chalo Manik shuru karte hain. Oh my God! Kitna majaa ayega!

Manik:(crying face) Haan bahut majaa ayega. Jab mera band bajega.

Nandini was hell excited while Manik was just complaining to Nandu's Aiyappa for putting him in this helpless situation.

Actually Nandini brought Manik to her room and showed her diary in which she has noted down all the wishes from her bucket list which she wants now to be fulfilled with Manik. Manik took the diary happily but all the happiness on his face faded when his eyes fell on the list. There were the craziest wishes noted which he knew would be hell risky to fulfil. But when he saw his Shona's glowing and excited face, he decide that chahe kuch bhi hojaye, he is gonna fulfil all her these wishes for her happiness.

Nandu: To chalo, mera first wish.

"FACE PAINTING"

Manik: Ok. To thik hai give me the paint and I will try to paint your face.

Nandu: Par mera face hi thodi paint karwana hai?

Manik: To?

Nandu: (cutely) Ham dono ek dusre ka face paint karenge aur phir selfie lenge!

Manik: (shocked) Kya! Nahin nahin, main apna handsome face paint nahin karwaunga.

Nandini listening to this made a sad pout. And offcourse how can our Manik Malhotra resist his Shona's puppy face?

Manik:(sighing) Ok. Chalo start.

Nandu jumped like an excited baby and ran to get the paint. Manik chuckled at her cute antics.

Manik:(To God) Hey Bhagwaan ji, Ye antic piece apko mere hi jholi mein daalni thi? (Suddenly smiling) But you know what? I love you for that.

His trance was broken by Nandini who came back with the needed stuff and sat on his lap painting his face.

(Their position. Imagine Manik sitting on the sofa and Nandini painting his face.)

All the while Nandini was making cute faces and pouts and Manik was only admiring her. After completing his face she handed over the brush to him and he started painting her face. Finally they were done and Nandini excitedly took Manik's phone to click selfie when she remembered that she doesnt have his password. She pouted and looked at Manik.

Nandu: (pouting cutely) Manik password do na. Selfie leni hai.

Manik smiled at his baby and just took her finger and touched it to the fingerprint reciever. And lo the phone got unlocked. Nandu was surprised.

Nandu: Ye kaise? I mean ye tumhara hi phone hai na? ( saying this she again checked the phone to confirm that its his.)

Manik chuckled and said

Manik: Relax Jaan. Its my phone only. But you are a part of me na. To mere phone pe tumhara fingerprint bhi to password hona chahiye na.

Nandu:(surprised) Par tumne mera fingerprint liya kab?

Manik: Umm... jab tum kal raat ghode bechke so rahi thi tab.

Nandu glared at him but then smiled and hugged him tight.

Manik: Shona selfie.

Nandu: Oh haan.

She opened the phone and they took selfies capturing their moments of cuteness and togetherness.

(Nandini's face)

(Manik's face)

Nandini after clicking the pics posted them on Social Media with caption "Thodi Craziness to banti hai.................. Happy Birthday to Me!! "

Manik laughed at her crazy caption and at their faces. They were really looking like the craziest persons in the whole world doing such stuffs.

Finally they washed their faces and proceeded to the next wish.

" MAKEUP ON HIM"

Manik looked at Nandu with a bad face.

Manik:(whinning) Nahin.

And Nandu was all into persuading him with many cute pleaaaaaaaases.

Finally Manik agreed and Nandini excitedly kissed his cheek and hugged him.

She brought her makeup box and settled herself on Manik's lap.

And Nandini started doing his makeup. He was really making bad faces and our Nandu was having a hard time controlling her laughs. Finally as the makeup ended, Manik sighed and Nandu burst out laughing.

Nandini:(laughing) Oh God Manik! You are looking so so funny! Ha ha ha aha!

Manik: Badi hasi aa rahi hai. Abhi batata hun.

And he started tickling her and Nandu laughed hard.

Nandini: Manik please leave me na. Hahaha Man hhhhah....

Finally Manik left her and both fell on the bed laughing. Manik looked at himself again and rushed to the washroom to was his face, but not before Nandini had clicked a pic of him.

Finally they were upto the third wish.

"COUPLE TATTOO"

Manik looked at the wish with a scared face. He wanted to fulfill it seeing Nandu's excitement but was scared. He looked at Nandu who was just smiling. He gathered all his courage and said

Manik: Chalo we will do it.

Nandu smiled widely and hugged him. She broke the hug and looked at him with all her love

Nandu:(lovingly) Manik you know na I love you? (Manik looked at her confused) To kya main tumhe hurt hone dungi? (Manik was more confused now) Manik I know you are scared of needles and piercings aur sirf mere liye ye tattoo karne ke liye haan bol rahe ho. (Manik looked at her surprised) Manik you dont have to do something that hurts you or something that you are not comfortable with, only because I want to do it. Isse tumhe jitna dard hoga usse jyada dard mujhe hoga. Manik main aise hazaron wishes chod dungi lekin kabhi tumhe hurt nahin hone dungi.

Manik had slight tears in his eyes. He just pulled her close, cupped her face and claimed her lips. He was kissing her with all his love.

He knew she loves him. But the depth of love that her eyes showed today made him realise that this girl is now his and he is her life. He was kissing her ever so softly. No urgency no wildness. Just a soft kiss of love. Their love.
Manik broke the kiss and looked at Nandu's face which was having a sweet smile with her eyes closed. He kissed her forehead and let his lips linger there for sometime. For them the moment was a bliss.

Manik: Thank you Shona. For coming into my life. For making it so beautiful with your presence.

Nandini: Thank you to mujhe tumse kehna chahiye Manik. Pata hai jab Maa ne mujhe pehli baar iss rishte ke baare mein pucha na to I was stuck in a dilemma. I was never over what happened in my past. And I didnt want someone to suffer for me coz I never thought I will be able to love someone after whatever I have seen in my past. I never believed in love till you entered in my life. Mamma ke saath Papa ne jo kiya..(her voice cracked at this stage. Manik held her tight to support her but didnt stop her. He knew that she needs to take out every single thing that she is holding in her. Only then can he heal her completely) Kyun kiya aisa unhone Manik? Mamma used to love him so much na. Unse beintehaan mohabbat karti thi wo. Phir unhone unhe hi kyun dhoka diya? Shaadi ki sirf paison ke liye? Kya paisa zindagi mein sab kuch hota hai Manik? (Manik nodded in no) Phir kyun insaan unke liye kisika dil todta hai? Aur mera kya Manik? Kya main itni buri hun ki mujhe wo itta sa bhi pyaar nahin karte? Nanu ki saari daulat mere naam hai to kya ye meri galati hai? Agar aisa haina to unse kaho Manik mujhe bole. Mujhe ek baar bole, main wo saari property unke naam kardungi. Bas uske badle mujhe wahi mere Papa ka pyaar dede. (She was continuosly crying hard while speaking and Manik was continuosly nodding his head in no) Pata hai Manik, bachpan mein na wo mujhe pyaar karte the. Princess bulate the. Mere liye toys, chocolates, sab late the. Mujhe bahut pamper karte the. Par achanak sab band. Sirf isiliye kyunki he got to know that Mamma ke naam ki saari property mere naam hogi. Kyun Manik Kyun? Kya yahi meri galati thi? Itni badi galati thi? Main tarasti hun unke pyaar ke liye Manik. Tarasti hun. Dadda, Phuphaji, Mausu, sab mujhe pyaar karte hain apni beti jaise. Par apne Papaka pyaar to special hota haina. Wo pyaar jo meri kismat mein nahin. Manik meri kismat mein aisa kuch nahin jisse mein sirf apna bol sakun. Jo sirf mera ho. Koi nahin Manik. Ek Mamma thi. Wo bhi mujhe chodke chali gayi. Kyun Manik kyun?

She broke down completely and sobbed hard. Manik pulled her into a tight hug.

Manik:(caressing her hairs) Shh... Bachha shhh.. Shant hojao mera Bachha. (He kept on caressing her hairs muttering sweet nothings in her ears and time to time kissing her temple. Finally after a long time she became shant. She composed herself while Manik spoke)

Manik:(still hugging her) Pata hai Shona tumhari galati kya hai? (She looked at him with teary eyes) Ki tum uss insaan ke liye ansun baha rahi ho jo ye soch bhi nahin raha hoga ki tum kaisi ho. Tum aaj bhi usse pyaar ki khwahish rakhti ho jisne tumhe kabhi pyaar kiya hi nahin. Nandu tum akeli nahin ho wo akela hai. Wo insaan ghatiya hai. Par tum nahin. Tumhari galati ye hai ki uski wajhase tum apne aap ko buri keh rahi ho. Ankhein kholo aur dekho Shona. Wo bura hai. Aur usne apne burai ka saya tumpe daalne ki koshish ki. Par tum nahin badli. Tum apni Mamma ki tarah bani. Pure heart Pure soul. Ab bolo kya tumhari Mamma buri thi?(Nandu immediately nodded in no) Phir unke saath aisa kyun hua? Shona bhagwaan bahut baar achhe logon ko jyada dard dete hain. Ye dekhne ke liye ki wo iss cheez ka kaise saamna karte hai. Aur dekho your Mamma succeeded. (Nandu looked at him confused) She succeeded Shona. Succeeded in making you a better person. Infact the best. Unhone kabhi apni zindagi ke andhere ka saya tumpe padne nahin diya. Unhone tumhe ek achha aur sachha insaan banaya. Itna age badhna sikha diya ki now you will never fall down. Tumhe jeena sikhaya. Apni life mein kuch karke dikhana sikhaya. Apni zindagi ki sabse badi gift tumhe di- MUSIC. Tumhe ek musician banaya. Chhoti umar mein hi tum dusron ke liye inspiration bani Shona. Hamare jaise lakhon Fab 5s Hidden 7 se inspire hue. Sirf tumhari Mamma ke wajahse. To ab bolo hui na wo successful? (Nandu nodded with a smile.) To ab tum unki itni mehnat ke baad kahogi ki tum buri ho, sirf aur sirf uss insaan ke wajahse jiska saya bhi tumpe nahin padne dena chahti thi wo? (Nandu nodded in no and hugged Manik. ) Aur kya kaha tumne? Aisa koi nahin hai jisse tum sirf apna keh sako? (He broke the hug and made her look at him) To main kya hun Shona? (Nandu looked at him surprised) Sirf tumhara hi to hun main.

Nandini: Sachhi?

Manik: Haan pagli. Ab kya likh ke dun ki Manik Malhotra sirf aur sirf Nandini Murthy ka hai?

Nandini smiled widely and hugged him tight. Manik felt his shoulders getting wet again.

Manik:(worried) Ab kya hua Shona? Tum ro kyun rahi ho?

Nandu: (chuckling) Khushi ke ansu hai janaab. Ab aap ek hi din mein itni saari khushiyan denge to handle kaise hoga?

Manik laughed at this and Nandu hugged him more tight.

Nandu: (wishpering) Only mine.

Manik:(smiling and closing his eyes) Only yours.

Suddenly they heard a beautiful music. At first Nandu was surprised but when she heard it clearly, she froze.....

Soooo finally done.

Dont worry wishes itne hi nahin hai. Age bhi continue hongi.

To kaisa laga apko chappy?

Manan's cuteness?

Nandu's cuteness?

Manan kiss?

Nandu's breakdown?

Manik's words?

Their love?

Finally why do you think Nandu froze?
