Manik was walking around the kitchen making breakfast as well as packing his and nidhi's tiffin. Kamaal hai! Ek time hota tha jab main yeh sab bina panic kiye kar leta tha. Aur aaj. Paseene chut rhe hai mere! Manik murmured. Aur yeh nidhi......yeh lo. Yeh abhi tak aayi kyu nahi.....NIDHIIIIIIII.

Nidhi yelled back, Haan dadeo 5 minutes ready ho rhi hoon. Manik let out a frustrated groan. School jana hai fashion parade nahi. Jaldi. Tumhare baal bhi banane hai.......NIDHIIIIIIII.

Nidhi came running in the kitchen. Take a chill pill dadeo!! Manik sighed. Kaise le loon chill pill. Tumhare ponies abhi tak nahi banaye. Ek toh practise choot gyi hai. And then tumhara tiffin abhi tak pack nahi hua. Maine apni khud ki office bag theek se set nahi ki. Saari files yahan wahan padi hai. And then tumhara school bag....ek second.....tumhari water bottle! Oh damn! Main toh bhool ho gaya. Tum ek kaam karo tum yeh breakfast karo main tab tak tumhari bottle fill karta hoon.

Manik walked around the kitchen still murmuring stuff. Kaha Rakh di maine. Kabhi time pe kuch nahi milta. Ek bottle nhi sambhal ke Rakh paaya tu theek se manik! Bekaar insaan. Kisi kaam ka nahi hai tu. Sahi bolta hai cabir total useless hoon .........

Nidhi, who rolled her eyes listening to manik talking to himself, pulled his hand. She dragged him and made him sit on the sofa. Aapko pta hai dadeo aap na iss waqt bilkul nandini di jaisa behave kar rhe ho. Woh jab panic hoti hai na toh woh bhi aise hi gol gol ghum ti rehti hai, badbad karti reh, panic hoti hai, things yahan wahan gira ti hai aur phir rone lagti hai.

Manik laughed at nidhi's description. Tumhari nandini didi ko pta chala na ki hum unki buraai kar rhe the toh woh toh gussa hojayega. Nidhi too giggled. Gusse main red ho jayega. Manik nodded his head and laughed. He then got up and again searched in the kitchen cabinets for nidhi's water bottle. He soon found that and getting everything ready he finally settled down to tie nidhi's hair.

Munchkin yeh baal bana na itna zaroori kyu hai. Matlab itne acche hair hai aapke open hai leke jao na. Nidhi made a bad face. Aur phir calender main jab remark aayegi na cleanliness ki tab aap aana teacher se milne. Manik smiled sheepishly and muttered a sorry.

Yaar kaha se shuru karu itne lambe baal kyu hai tumhare. Hum na aaj Shaam ko hi jaake inhe cut kar dege. Manik spoke in a frustrated tone.

NOOOO! Nidhi glared at him. He nodded his head in defeat and got back to untangling nidhi's hair. Once done untangling nidhi guided manik. She instructed him just the way shweta used to comb her hair when nidhi was at Sinha house.

Aaj chala lungi lekin kal subha tak Sikh lena warna aapki khair nahi. Nidhi warned manik whose eyes were ready to pop out of their sockets. Meri billi mujhe meow. Manik said glaring at nidhi while she laughed.

Chalo ab bus ka time ho gya. Nidhi hop skipped all the way till the bus while manik walked behind her. Dropping nidhi off, manik came back. He again checked his phone. No calls. No messages. Abhi tak uthi nahi kya? Uthegi bhi kaise! Saari raat jaagi jo thi. Pagal ladki.

Manik rushed to get ready for office.
While he was getting ready he got a video call from nandini. Uth gayi madam aap! Nandini yawned in reply. Manik laughed. Nandini simply rolled on the bed the phone in her hand. Manik's sighed. It's 7:30 nandini. Cafe nahi jaana? Nandini again nodded. Manik continued changing his shirts trying to find a perfect one that matches his jeans.

Nandini was lying on her bed looking at manik with a sweet smile on her face. Manik had placed his cell on the dressing table giving a visual treat to nandini's eyes. Manik saw her staring intently at him and he too smiled. Tch tch tch. Kya ho gya hai aaj kal ki ladkiyon ko? Paraye mard ko aise taad na galat baat hoti hai mohatarma!

Nandini smirked and got up. She rested her back with the head rest and adjusted her cell phone. She smirked. Isme galat kya hai janab! Aapko yun pyaar bhari nighaaon se taad ne main kuch galat nahi hai. After all cheez apni hai parayi thodi!

Manik smirked. Mohatarma agar aapke boyfriend ko iss baare main pata chala toh? Kya sochege woh aapke baare main? Manik paused for a moment and looked at her. He raised his eyebrows while she smiled slyly. Mere boyfriend itna busy hai ki uske paas mujh jaisi masoom bacchi ke liye bilkul bhi waqt hi nahi hai.
Manik raised his eyebrows when nandini called herself masoom bacchi. Infact mera boyfriend toh itna unromantic hai! Dhat! Kaha phase gayi main.

Manik stared at her with wide eyes. Nandini giggled seeing his expressions. Waise fikr toh aapko karni chahiye! Aapki girlfriend kya sochegi aapke baare main. Manik nodded his head in disbelief. Finally he was able to match the perfect shirt for the day. He was now gelling his hair. Meri girlfriend toh guy hai guy (गाय🐄). Ekdum bholi bhali. Woh kabhi kuch nahi bolti.

Nandini narrowed her eyes at him while manik suppressed his laugh. Bohot hasi aa rhi hai na! Manik nodded his head in a no and burst out laughing. Tumhe toh main dikhaogi kitni bholi hoon main. Manik chortled. You and I, we both know ki you anything but bholi. Nandini gave woh toh main hoon look to him while manik winked at her.

Both of them burst out laughing. Accha suno mujhe na ab late ho raha hai. Main bhagta hoon. Shaam ko baat karte hai. Manik took his phone and bag. He placed his bag on the couch while he went to the kitchen. Bhagna kyu hai! Bike se jao na. Manik stared at nandini for her extremely lame reply and rolled his eyes Hey bhagwan! Nandini giggled.

Accha manik suno na. Main yeh bol rhi thi ki afternoon main nidhi ko pick main kar loon kya? Manik looked at her puzzled. Kyu? Nandini got up from the bed and was folding her duvet. Woh tum office main rahoge. Phir office chhod ke aana aur phir tum rakhoge kaha usse. Akela chhod ke office jana is not safe na! Toh isse better I will pick her up and keep her with me.

Manik nodded. Nahi nandini. The school authorities won't hand over nidhi to you knowing you are an unknown person. It's okay she leaves at 1 uss time mera lunch hota hai main pick kar Lunga. Phir tumhara paas ya toh phir Mrs. Sinha ke paas drop kar dunga usse.

Tumne iss baare main Mrs. Sinha se baat kiya? Nandini sat on the bed and was constantly asking him questions while manik was busy getting ready and setting things. He was now in the kitchen packing his lunch. Kar Lunga nandini! Please stop bugging me. Subha subha tum shuru ho gyi. Mujhe pta hai mujhe kya karna.

Listening toh manik's irritated reply nandini frowned. She could feel her anger surfacing. Kabhi toh sun liya karo meri baat dhyaan se. Irritate hone ki bajaye. Manik looked at her and scowled. Ofcourse, saari duniya bewakoof jo hai. Bhagwan ne saari akal toh tumhe hi di hai. Woh meri beti hai nandini. Main jaanta hoon uska khyaal kaise rakhna hai. Yeh mujhe tumse seekhne ki zaroorat nahi hai.

Nandini was startled. His rude reply shut her. She simply mumbled a sorry and said a quick bye. Manik sighed. Shit! Kya bolta hai tu bhi manik. Hadd hoti hai! Tu late hai usme uski kya galti. Shirts change karne ka time pass tu kar rha tha aur gussa uspe nikaal diya. Excellent. Ab toh isse manana aur bhi mushkil ho jayega. Raat ko aake baat kar Lunga. Nandini ke aiyappa please aaj baccha lena.

Aiyappa: galti kare tu aur bachao main.

Manik: did I just hear aiyappa say something. Gaawwwdddd! Sahi keh rahi thi nidhi....Nandini ke saath rehte rehte main bhi uske jaisa ho gaya hoon.

Quickly setting his things he left for office. Manik aaj Mr.Singh ke saath lunch meet hai toh please apni team ko bolo ki saare documents ke saath ready rahe. Manik's boss instructed him as soon as he entered his cabin. Being the senior head he had been given his own cabin along with a team of 4 people. Manik nodded his head. He called his team members via intercom and instructed them to be in his cabin in 15 minutes.

While he was collecting his documents, Shit! Meeting at lunch time. Toh nidhi? Usse toh pick karna tha mujhe. Ab? Dammit. Manik picked his cell. Nandini ko message kar du? Nahi. Already subha jab bola tab over smartness dikhayi ab bolo toh pakka maar dalegi. Toh kisko bolu. Navya aur Mukti ka office toh waise hi dur hai. Cabir is the last option. I hope woh busy na ho. Message karke dekh leta hoon.

Manik messaged Cabir. The message was delivered but not seen. Jab fre hoga tab dekh lega. I m sure ek baje se pehle pehle toh woh free ho hi jayega. In the meantime his teammates turned up and he got busy in the preparation. Before entering the meeting room, manik turned his phone silent.

It completely slipped out of his mind to call cabir and confirm. He went in he meeting and was totally focused on it. His phone was lying on the table, ringing continously. Since it was on silence he didn't realise that there were 7 missed calls from an unknown number.

Around 3 the meeting got over and as soon as manik moved out of the meeting room he saw his phone. 7 missed calls! From an unknown number! Strange. He was about that he called back when he received a call from Mrs. Sinha.

Shweta aunty ka call iss waqt! He swiped he screen. Hello aunty! Kya baat hai aaj kaise.......Shweta interrupted him. Manik....Nidhi.....I m taking her.....with me. Tum please jaldi mere ghar aa jao.....please its emergency. Manik panicked. Aunty kya hua hai! Aur nidhi! Kya hua nidhi ko? Aunty please kuch toh btaye.

Manik please abhi kuch nahi. Bas ghar aa jao. Manik frankly nodded Haan aunty. He walked into his boss's cabin after knocking the door. Sir it's an emergency, can I please get a leave. It's about my daughter. Manik's boss already knew about him having the responsibility of a daughter. Manik had told him the real reason behind not having a job for almost a year and above.

His boss nodded. Manik thanked him and walked out. Quickly collecting his things manik fished out his phone and called nandini. Nandini picked up the phone thinking he had called to apologise. Hmm bolo? Manik thanked his stars he has not expected nandini to pick up the phone after his morning stunt.

Nandini abhi ke abhi na Sinha house aa jao. Something has happened. Mujhe nahi pata exactly kya hai but it's about nidhi. Main abhi office se nikal raha hoon. Tum please sabko call karke bol do. I just hope she is safe. Listening to manik nandini too panicked. Manik nidhi.....Tum ne usse pick nahi kiya kya? Aur Mrs. Sinha ke paas kaise? Aur tum iss waqt office main ho toh nidhi kaha hai?

Manik sighed. Nandini woh sab baad main tum bas waha aa jao. Mujhe bhi nahi pata hua kya hai. Bas tum aa jao na. Nandini agreed and both hung up. She made calls to navya and mukti and told them to come there. Cabir still wasn't picking up the call. Nandini told navya to call him.

All of them reached at the Sinha's one by one. Navya had called at his radio station and asked the receptionist to pass on the message. Cabir was the last one to reach there. Everyone was glaring at him ready to kill him while he stood there all unknown to what mess has he created. Though he wasn't the one to be blamed completely yet he was at fault along with his buddy. Now the only one who could save them from the wrath of the girls was Nandini's Aiyappa.

Hello!
Hope you guys liked the update.

Thanks.☺

P.S.
1. This update might seem a little boring to many of you but was a much needed one. Infact the entire upcoming track is a much needed one.

2. This is regarding Humesha.  Readers who are with me from starting might think that humesha is going to be the same and we will read once the fresh chapters start. But let me tell you that it's not the same. The story line is the same but the writing and everything had changed drastically so do not stay under the wrong illusion.
