Recap : Nyonika slapped Manik for troubling Nandini. Manik confessed his love for Nandini to Nyonika and Kalyani. Nandini said No.....

............................................................

"Manik!"

Hearing this Manik looked at his room door side.

Manik : "Dadi"

Yes Kalyani herself climbed up the stairs to reach Manik and is now breathing heavily due to that.

Manik : "Dadi? Why you came up with your leg pain? I would have come if you have called me"

Kalyani : "From yesterday, you didn't came out of the room. That's why I came. Yesterday night, when Nyonika called you for dinner, you didn't even reply it seems. After that Raj who came to your room told me that you slept....You acted to your father itself. I know you didn't sleep all the night. Your eyes are saying that"

Hearing this Manik kept quiet.

Yesterday night, when Raj returned from office, Nyonika told him about the happenings. But Raj didn't tell anything and straightaway went to Manik's room. He found him sleeping, so he returned.

Kalyani caught hold of Manik's face and looked at him lovingly.

Kalyani : "Dear! Whatever may be the sorrows and troubles, we should not show our anger towards food....Your health will get spoiled. Come, let's eat....Because of you, your father too didn't eat....He is waiting for you. Even I didn't eat....You come. We will eat together"

Manik : "What Dadi you are? You should not be like this not eating for a long time. What will happen to your health? Okay...Come Let's go"

Saying this Manik hold Kalyani's hand and took her to the dining area.

In the dining area, Raj and Nyonika are waiting for them. Nandini is sitting near Raj....But Manik didn't look at her and turned his head to the other side.

Nandini wanted to eat separate only. She even told Nyonika that she is not hungry for that. But Raj called Nandini and made her sit with him. So she cannot reject it

Raj pulled out the chair near him for Manik which is opposite to Nandini now.

Manik with small smile : "Thanks Dad"

Raj himself served Dinner for Manik. Like that Nyonika too served for Nandini.

When Manik is eating he started to have hiccups.

Nyonika suddenly held out water glass to him. But Manik didn't take it from her. He took the water glass near Raj and drink it.

Manik's this ignorance made Nyonika worried. Nyonika with tears in her eyes looked at Raj.

Nandini felt pity for Nyonika's situation. She felt much embarrased to sit in that place.

Raj consoled Nyonika through his eyes. Till Manik finished eating, no one spoke anything. Nandini for namesake ate little informed Raj and went to her room.

Manik is also silent till Nandini went.

Manik to Raj : "Dad! I want to talk to you about something"

Raj : "Hmmm. Tell me Manik"

Manik : "Dad! I am going to stay outside"

Hearing this Nyonika panickingly looked at Raj and Manik again and again.

But Raj didn't tell anything but signed Manik to continue.

Kalyani didn't too interrupted. But Nyonika cannot tolerate this.

Nyonika panickingly : "Outside means where? You have college nearby. What is the need to go out? What is this new habit Manik? I won't give my consent to this at all"

Manik : "Dad. please! No one should stop me"

Nyonika : "No Manik. I won't accept it all"

Manik : "Okay...If I should be in this home, then she should not be here"

Nyonika confusingly : "Who are you saying Manik?"

Manik : "That one, whom you are taking care of ................your foster daughter! I am saying about her only. Send her to any hostel. Can you do that?"

Kalyani worriedly : "Manik? What are you telling? Why are you asking Nandini to send to hostel?"

Manik : "I don't like it....I should be here or she should be here in this home. For just talking to her itself, here one person said that I am misbehaving with her.......The matter is now known to everyone. Hereafter If we both stayed in the same home....I don't know what will be further blames that I had to hear?"

Nyonika : "Hey Manik...That...I misunderstood the situation and spoke. What I did is wrong only. For this you are giving a big punishment Manik. How can we send her ? She is a young girl Manik. Where will she go?"

Manik : "I didn't ask her to send somewhere. I am only asking you send her to a good hostel"

Nyonika with tears in her eyes : "How Manik? We have kept her these many days in this home. Suddenly you are asking her to send. It's wrong Manik...She is ours Manik"

Manik angrily : "Then leave me. I will go somewhere"

Nyonika : "You are my son Manik. You have parents, grandmother. How can we leave you? What Raj? Why are you not saying anything?"

Raj is drowned in his thoughts.

Raj : "Manik! I will tell my decision on this within this night"

Nyonika angrily : "Raj! Instead of saying no, why are you asking time for it?"

Raj : "Have patience Nyonika...."

Hearing this Nyonika worriedly looked at Manik.

Manik : "Okay Dad...I will now go to my friends home and come"

Saying this Manik went out of the home fastly.

............................................................

Sonakshi said all the happenings to Dev angrily....Dev listened to it silently.

Sona angrily : "This Nandini is a fool who cant't understand true love. Do you know how much Manik is in love with Nandini? Manik will always talk about Nandini only from the day he started loving her...He will not let me talk at all. But Nandini...with that much easiness, she told that she don't like him. I am feeling pity for Manik. I don't know how to comfort him itself...."

Dev : "Sonu...what is the use of worrying? If she didn't like him, we can't compel her. The reason for her to not like Manik may be she don't like his character... Or there might be some other reasons"

Sona : "What will be the other reasons Dev?"

Dev : "She might have thought that she is an orphan...She might have thought that she doesn't have any status to love Manik...."

Sona : "Then, are you telling she would have liked Manik?"

Dev : "Don't know... I only told this too can be the reason...A small guess"

Sona : "Then, are you telling that when she come to know that she is not an orphan and she has a father, she will realize her status and love Manik?"

Dev : "Don't know Sonu...Love will not come seeing status....But I don't know about Nandini. You only know her very well. You are more close to her. So don't be angry on her and stop talking to her. You try to know her very well now. If you came to know what's in her heart, then we can see if we can help them or not"

Sona : "Correct Dev...Like you are saying, we have to know what's in Nandini's heart. I too suddenly scolded her and didn't talk to her till today. We can patiently wait and understand what she thinks. When she told she doesn't like Manik, I feel like killing her. If Nani didn't stop me that time, I would have killed her with my words itself"

Dev : "Wrong Sonu....Without understanding her situation you should not have scolded her.In that home, she has so many to support her. But you are only one who is of her age. She can't let out what is in her heart to Nyonika aunty or Dadi right?"

Sona : "Sorry Dev. I made mistake. I will go to Nandini now itself, apologize to her and tries to understand her"

Dev : "Good Sonu...Then as per Shekar Mamu's wish, he should celebrate Nandini's birthday this year with Nandini"

Sona : "Yes Dev. We have to find a way out for that too. If we ask Shekhar dad, he will not allow us to do anything. We should not leave this matter. She lost his loving wife. Atleast he should be happy with his daughter"

When Sona was saying this, her phone ringed displaying Nyonika's name.

Sonakshi answered the call ......
