Next morning

Nandini's home

Everyone in Murthy house were doing work as Malhotra's will come soon and our dear Nandini was in her room doing some work as her Mom strictly told her to rest but she can't so decided to do her some work....

Ishita came to her only to find her daughter working...

Ishita: I told you to rest

Nandini: And I'm not tired

Ishita: Fine but now go and get ready in...

Nandini: I will not wear saree

Ishita: Fine wear dress and get ready now they will come in half an hour

Nandini: Fine

Nandini went to get ready as soon as Ishita left from there... While Nandini was getting ready on other side Manik was already ready and waiting for everyone...

Manik's home

Manik was in the living room standing folding his hands and tapping his right leg and looking at the watch again and again...

Manik: Mom come fast

Manik was getting irritated when Ritvik and Asha came to him...

Ritvik: Manik relax why are you getting impatient this much

Asha: Ritvik samjiye na innhe aapni hone wali biwi se jo milna hai (Ritvik understand na that he's desperate to meet his soon to be wife)

Ritvik: Galt phele mangetar to bane do biwi to baad ban hi jayegi (Wrong first let her be his fiance than she will become his wife)

Manik ears turn red and looked away hearing their teasing...

Asha: Dekho to kaise sharma rahe hai (Look how you are blushing)

Manik: Kya Bhabhi aap bhi (What Bhabhi you also)

Nyonika: Chalo jaldi aab late nahi ho raha kya (Comeon let's go now you are not getting late)

Raj and Nyonika went away followed by AshVik and Manik.... Soon they reached at Nandini's home and Manik was getting excited each passing second...

They were greeted by Raman and Ishita and walked inside the house settling themselves in living room.... Elders were discussing among themselves while Manik, Ritvik and Abhi were talking but Manik time by time was looking at the stairs...

Abhi notice him looking at the stairs so he whisper to Manik...

Abhi (whisper): Nandu is getting ready

Manik smile hearing it but than composed himself making Abhi chuckle...

Soon Nandini came downstairs making everyone in the living room look at her... Manik was gawking at Nandini with his mouth little open...

Writer: Credits goes to Pinterest

Ritvik who was beside Manik close his mouth making him come back to the world... Nandini who was talking with Asha and Nyonika notice this and chuckle....

Soon Pandit Ji also came and started to look at their Janam Kundali... Now Manik and Nandini were standing together, Manik hold Nandini's hand without getting caught and Nandini try to remove her hand but couldn't....

Manik was controlling his smile and seeing him smiling at her condition Nandini thought now it's enough so she just pinche him on his hand making him yelled....

Manik: Ahhhh

Everyone look at Manik with confusion...

Nyonika: Manik what happened

Manik: Nothing Mom you guys continue

Manik said this while glaring at Nandini who was looking at him with innoncent smile others nodded their head in disbelief and chuckle....

Pandit Ji: Roke ke liye aaj shaam ka mahurat bohat hi acha hai aur sagai ke liye 4 din baad ka mahurat nikla hai (For Roka today's evening time is auspicious and for engagement after 4 days)

Ishita: Hye bhagwaan itni jaldi sab kaam kaise hoga sab (Oh God how will work get completed this soon)

Nyonika: Ha kitne saare kaam hai (Yeah work is too much)

Ritvik: Don't worry Mom sab ho jayega

Nyonika: Ha par shaam ko kin kin ko bulana hai (Yeah but whom we should call at evening)

Ishita: Sirf parivaar wale hi kar dete hai (Only family members)

Manik: Umm can I call my teammates they are here only

Raman: Ha beta kyu nahi bula lo

Nandini: I will inform Navya

Ishita: Ha bata de

Both Manik and Nandini inform them Navya was on her way to Nandini's home while in group chats everyone was congratulating Manik and were teasing him but it was finally stop by Mahi...

Nyonika: Ishita Ji inn dono ka koi kaam nahi hai to inhe todi der bahar jane dete hai time spend karne dete hai.. (Ishita Ji these two don't have to do any work than let them spend some time together...)

Ishita: Ha bilkul sahi baat hai aapki... (Sure you said right thing..)

Raj: Tum dono kahi gumm aao tab tak hum ye sab arrangements kar lete hai.. (You two go somewhere till than we will see all arrangements..)

Nandini: But you guys will need help

Nyonika: For that we are here and Manik's teammates are also coming so it will be enough help...

Nandini: Okay

Manik: Uncle can I take Nandini with me

Raman: On one condition that call us Mom and Dad now

Manik: Okay Dad

Raj: And Nandini Beta Copy Paste Enter

Everyone burst into laughter and soon resume their work...

Manik forward his hand to Nandini who gladly put her hand on his both settled in Manik's car and started to go...

Nandini: So where will be go now

Manik: Don't know you say

Nandini: No idea

Manik: Let's go to cafe only

Nandini nodded her head in agreement so Manik drove his car to nearest cafe... After 15-20 minutes they reached there and went inside...

Manik pulled a chair for Nandini, Nandini sat down murmuring a thanks to Manik and himself got seated...

Nandini: Manik you know right you don't have to pull chair for me

Manik: Yeah I know and also that you are a independent woman but I'm also a gentleman

Nandini: That you are Mr. Cricketer

Manik: So how long is your holiday?

Nandini: A month but I can't guarantee that because if there is any emergency than I need to go

Manik: I understand

Nandini: What about you when is your next match?

Manik: After a month there is test series than after few weeks again...

Nandini: Hmmm.... Manik can I ask you something

Manik: You shouldn't ask for permission Nandini you just have to say without any permission and now say

Nandini: Yesterday when I said I may not come always I know everyone was hurt but I know you were hurt most but why did you cover it...

Manik: It's true Nandini I was hurt but we can't change the fact also that it may happen but I can just pray and hope that Jab Bhi Tum Jao Wapas Laut Ke Mere Paas Hi Aao.... (I can just pray and hope that whenever you go will come back to me only...)

Nandini was smiling looking at him while he was trying hard to control himself not to say that don't go but he knows it's her job, it's for country...

Manik: I know Nandini how it feels when you do something for your country though our profession is different but still I know.... I play for ICT while you protect the people by saving their lives specially soldiers....

Nandini: Manik thank you so much for understanding me and my profession.... I was afraid if my partner will understand my profession or not but now I'm not...

Manik: I'm glad that you are not now

Nandini: Manik I want a promise from you

Manik: What promise Nandini?

Manik asked Nandini in confusion as he saw Nandini changing her emotions from happy to sad to blank....

Nandini: I want you to MOVE ON if something happens to me....

Manik was shocked listing to Nandini he never thought she will say this...

Manik: What are you saying Nandini do you have any idea

Nandini: I know what I'm saying Manik and I'm saying for you only

Manik (taking deep breath): Listen I understand why did you said that but I don't want any other woman in my life... I just want you as My Wife... I like you Nandini and I want to fall in love with you ONLY.... I'm falling for You...

Nandini: Manik I like you too and maybe Being in love with you but I don't want to stop your life....

Manik just look at Nandini listing to her both of them were sad...

Manik: I promise I will not stop living my life Nandini but I will never have any other woman other than you....

They continue talking on random things now, after sometime they got a call from home saying them to come fast they need to get ready also...

MaNan left from there holding their hands entwined their fingers... Looks like they found their missing piece....
