Manik was playing with Maira from past 10 minutes and Maira was not ready to leave Manik at all.

"By the way. Dad doesn't know about you being my Indian client. Come home tonight, infact I'll pick you up guys." Manik said tickling Maira who laughed her heart out.

"Sure, by the way how is Ami and others?" Aryaman asked

"Well they all are fine." Manik replied with a smile. Nandini was just smiling seeing them busy talking.

"Aryaman I think me and Maira have to leave, she needs to have food." Nandini said gaining their attention. Aryaman bobbed his head and said.

"Chal, Manik we will leave now. This panda girl needs to have food too and her medicines." Manik frowned listening medicines.

"Medicines?" Listening him Nandini just looked at and Aryaman bobbed his head, seeing Nandini face Manik kept quiet and didn't say anything.

"Maira chalo, we need to leave." Nandini said forwarding her hand, but she frowned and wrapped her hands around Manik's neck shaking her head vagarously.

"Maira, uncle ko bhi kaam hai, aap baad mein mil sakte ho unse." Aryaman said to which she glared at him.

"Nai, flend! No...nai" she cupped Manik's face telling him not to leave her. Manik laughed hard and said.

"I promise baby, I'll meet you. Now you should fill ur tummy. Go to ur mumma." She stared at him with a pout and Manik couldn't resist pecking her cheek. He held her face and gave a tight peck on it Manik her laugh.

Nandini held her, in which he hand brushed with Manik they just smiled and bidding bye to Manik they trio left from there. Manik went to his cabin with a smile. Seeing him like that whole office was in shock.

Benno Restaurant

Aryaman along with Nandini and Maira entered the restaurant and took a place near the window.

"Aryaman how do you know Manik Malhotra?" Nandini asked curiously.

"Well, we were college buddies. As you know I have spent my 5 years in New York so Manik and me became friends in college time." Aryaman replied looking at menu. Nandini bobbed her head making a 'oh' face.

"What would you like have madam?" Aryaman Nandini to which she replied anything.

"Aur aap choti madam? Aapko kya chahiye?" Maira who was grumpy all the time playing with her panda replied.

"Flend!" Aryaman and Nandini laughed making her stare at them.

"Baby mamu puch rahe khana kya khaogi?" Nandini made her understand. She made a 'oh' face and said

"Chiki!" She exclaimed to which Nandini sighed and looked at Aryaman who bobbed his head with a slight smile.

Aryaman ordered for themselves and asked Nandini

"How come you are vegetarian and she is non-vegetarian? As far as I know ur ex- husband was a vegetarian too." Nandini chuckled and shrugged off her shoulders making him laugh.

Soon their orders came and qthey relished it. Maira had only half of the chiken curry and rest was for Aryaman who had it without any problem.

It was already 2 in the afternoon and they decided to take round to see some places since it was Nandini's first visit.

When they were roaming Maira fell off to sleep so Aryaman took her in his arms and soon they decided to take rest in the hotel.

When they reached Aryaman made Maira sleep on the bed and bidding bye to Nandini he left from there. Nandini sighed and went tto freshen up. Soon she came out and laid down beside Maira and let the eyes consume sleep.

Manik's house, 5:30 PM

Manik entered inside with a smile playing on his lips due to Maira. Amelia saw him who just came from the college and was behind him only. She jumped on his back making him stumble.

"What the hell! Amelia! Oh lord." Manik wrapped his hands around her waist she giggled.

"Agh! Where were you so lost that you didn't even listen to me. Now bear me like this only." She said pouting he looked at her and asked

"Am I a cart for you to carry you like this. Get down you fatty." He said teasing her a bit. She glared and slapped his shoulder.

"Shut up! Carry me till my room which is beside urs. Common." She said making him sigh and he took her to her room. Other family members witnessed it who laughed seeing them.

He came out all freshed and went into the kitchen to inform about the dinner. There he saw his brother and wife romancing.

"Ahem! Ahem!" They immediately left each other. Alex made a face and looked at him.

"The fight is over?" Amelia asked seeing them standing like that to which Manik replied.

"I guess so, since I saw them in a very beautiful position." He teased making Jennifer blush and Alex glare at him.

"Shut up Manik. When ur wife will come that time I'll see how you behave with her." Saying this he left from there. Amelia went and brushed her shoulder with Jennifer teasing her who glared at her.

"Anyway, Jennifer please inform the butlers to prepare food as the Indian client is coming home." Manik said to which she smiled.

"Sure, any special dish?" She asked placing her one hand on he waist and other on the slab. He shook his head with a smile and pecking her forehead mumbling a thank you he left from there.

It was already 7 now and Aryaman had gone to buy something for Manik's family telling Nandini to be ready. It has been more than an hour he wasn't back. She called him and he told her he will be late.

Here even Manik called him and asked

"Bro, where are you?"

"Actually Manik I have come out and there is a traffic jam over here. Can you please pick up Nandini and Maira. I know ur house address I'll come directly."

"Okay, but please inform Nandini that I'm coming to pick her up."

"Yeah sure. Thanks. Bye."

"Bye."

Aryaman immediately called Nandini and told her about Manik's arrival to pick her up but she denied but Aryaman insisted to which she had to agree.

Manik left his house and within 20 minutes he reached the hotel to see Nandini coming out of it. Maira who was all active her gaze fell on Manik who smiled at her. She wriggled in Nandini's hold and leaving her hand she ran to him.

"Arey!" Nandini sighed and seeing it to be Manik she smiled and moved towards them. Manik was now holding Maira.

"Hey! Maira. How are you? Missed me?" He asked her to which instead replying she hid herself in his neck taking him startled.

Nandini too was amaze seeing her behaving like that. Shrugging off the thoughts Manik smiled at Nandini and asked

"I hope you had a good rest." She bobbed her head. Manik opened the door for her she sat, Manik tried giving Maira to her but she didn't leave him.

He sat on his seat. Maira looked around and smiled seeing Nandini beisde her. Nandini forward her hand and she went to her luckily.

Manik started driving, they were enjoying the ride due to Maira's stupid acts. After few minutes Manik asked

"Nandini if you don't mind can I ask you something?" She bobbed her head looking at him.

"In the office Aryaman said about some medicines of Maira? Is she not well?" He asked worriedly to which Nandini smiled sadly and said

"Actually Maira is pre-mature baby, and sometimes she vomits and all. Few days back she had fever so that's why." He made a 'oh' face and stopped the car.

"We reached." He said unfastening his seat belt, he came out and opened the door for them. Nandini came out and kept Maira on the land and she immediately held Manik's hand.

They moved towards the door, Nandini was beside Maira so basically Maira was in between Manik walking.  They entered inside and seeing them coming they all stood up.

Nandini was surprised to see Manik's dad over there and so was he. At that time only the bell rang. One of the butler went to open the door. It was Aryaman.

He came inside and seeing him all the family members were surprised except for Manik, Nandini and Maira.

"Aryaman! My my! You have changed so much." Said Alex to which he smiled and bobbed his head.

"So are you Mr. Alex. Hello uncles, how are you?" Aryaman asked to which Alex's dad bobbed his head.

"You didn't tell me, you were coming?" Manik's dad asked looking at him.

"Dad, he is the Indian client. My friend and now my business partner."  Manik introduced him to which they were amazed.

"And this is Nandini... Aryaman's sister." Manik said to which she smiled and mumbled a hello to everyone.

"And this is... Maira her daughter." Manik said to which they went aww seeing Maira with a panda hiding herself behind Manik and Nandini.

"I know her. Today only I met her in the office." Aryaman frowned and looked at Nandini listening to Manik's dad to which she smiled bobbed her head.

"Maira, chupna band karo...bahar aao." Nandini said moving away from Manik making him stare at her. Maira looked at them all and blushed and again hid herself behind Manik making them all laugh. Manik picked her up in his arms.

"Aww, she is so cute." Amelia and Jennifer said it together making others chuckle.

They all introduced to each other and settled themselves on the sofa. Aryaman gave them the present too.

"Let's have food then." Manik's dad said to which they nodded and stood up. They settled on the dining table. Nandini was sitting with Maira in her lap as she needs to be feeded, beside her was Aryaman on right and left was Manik.

They were having really good time, talking about the time spent by the two friends, Nandini also came to know about Manik's mother and his father. All in all it was really great dinner. Everyone enjoyed Maira's antics.
