Ek deewana .....awaaz ki .....

Flash back continue .....

Manik pov.....

We reached back home early morning....And reached our rooms and slept .......

Then I came out late from my room as I slept early morning ........I asked mukti for coffee ......She went into kitchen to get my coffee ......But suddenly i heard nandu screaming my name .....I got scared and was about to run along with cabir dhruv arya abhi ......But we saw nandu running towards us and navya chasing her ..........Nandu came to me and hid behind me ......

Manik plzz save me.....She asked me cutely ......

Manik just go on a side .....Navya demanded .....

What's wrong with you navya ......Why are you hitting her .....It's abhi.......

Ask her where she is  whole night .....yaha hum pareshaan thi uske liye pure raat ....Aur madam delhi ghoomne gaye he.......I heard navya  shouting ......

I just turned to see nandu .......She said plzz help me .....With a cute pout.....

Navya relax.....She was with me last night .......I only took her out.....She is not alone ....Vo i scolded her before day na so I thought to take her out......Sorry for not informing .......If you want you can hit me bcoz it's my fault for not informing anyone........I said ......

It's ok if you  are with her i thought she is alone ....So I made her run.........Bcoz u told me before night she is about to go out alone so I came last night to check on her but she is not there ....I got scared thinking she left alone .......
That's y i scolded her ......Navya said in a very concerned tone.....

Then nandu came from behind ....I'm sorry I shall never repeat it ......Plzz maaf kardo madhu bala. .......Nandu said .....Holding her ears......

Madhu bala ....We all said together .....Except abhi ......

It's her nickname .....My black and white madhu bala.......Nandu said pinching navya cheeks ....We all laughed at this .....But navya is ready to hit nandu again......

Nandu ke bache ......No one can help you now ..Navya said taking the cushion........Nandu again hide behind me and said ..... .......Sorry im not married to have kids ........We saw a care free nandu ......

So cushion hit me .....I hit navya but unfortunately it hit cabir...Like this started the pillow fight ....Finally we all relaxed after getting tired then nandu said about our visit to  india Gate ..All felt happy for our growing friendship .....But cabir had smirked looking at me .....That means something is wrong with this guy ..........

We all got ready and visited lotus temple first .......

Then after this we reached the qutub minar

Finally we reached the memorial  museum......Nandu is the most excited soul to visit museum ......She is keenly observing everything ..........last we just stopped by rastra pathi bhavan and then reached home being exhausted ........We are all plan ning to take rest the next day and leave to mumbai ........By road .......

Present ..........

Papa u took mama on bike ride .......Asked naman .....

In all the delhi fun you only found your mama papa bike ride interesting .......Asked mukti

Yes .... Said naman smiling sheepishly .........

Ha champ i took your mom on ride.....Our first ride together ........
Memorable one ....I said with a smile ........

Mumma...y did mami call you black and white madhu bala ........Asked cavya ......

Not only that nandu used to call me matarani madhubala drama queen ......Many names but only nandu used to calm me like that .....I really liked if she called like that .....Bcoz I'm the only person she used to show full rights like I'm her own property.....That's y i miss her .....Navya said in a sad tone.... Cabir  side hugged her ...........

Papa at what time we will reach red fort .....Asked diya .....

We are almost near to it baby .........Said abhi .....

Then I just pulled out the curtain of the bus to see outside......Yes it's the place where is visited with my bird .....Our first trip together ........I don't know what this has stored for me ....But I feel it has something special for me ........

We all finally came out as the bus stopped ....It's nearly afternoon.....I just put my shades ........Dad took namu.....Abhi held diya.......cabir took cavya.......mukti took abeer ........jiju is holding ani .....We just moved inside the fort....Everyone put the children down....But we have seen more children  ....Looks like they came for an excursion....and big crowd is there in front of a stage ..........

We heard a voice .....That is someone singing a song ....

Lab pe aati hai duaa bann ke tamanna meri
Zindagi shamma ki soorat ho khudaya meri
Lab pe aati hai duaa bann ke tamanna meri

But it's my bird voice.......I began running ........In that direction.....Not only me but my whole family came running .....I stopped in front of the stage to see a cute girl in the center of the stage sitting on a chair holding the guitar and two girls one with keyboard and the other with a guitar ..... one boy playing drums .......Singing this song  ......I was just starring the girl .........She continued singing ......

Ae watan, watan mere, aabaad rahe tu
Ae watan, watan mere, aabaad rahe tu
(Ae watan, watan mere, aabaad rahe tu)

Main jahan rahun, jahaan me yaad rahe tu
(Main jahan rahun, jahaan me yaad rahe tu)

All the students sang with that girl.......

Ae watan… mere watan!
(Ae watan… mere watan!)

Her voice is magical.....Even my kids started singing .....

Tu hi meri manzil hai, pehchan tujhi se
(Tu hi meri manzil hai, pehchan tujhi se)

Pahunchu main jahaan bhi
Meri buniyad rahe tu
(Pahunchu main jahaan bhi
Meri buniyad rahe tu)

Ae watan… mere watan!
(Ae watan… mere watan!)

She just signalled her friends with eyes.....She has big eyes ......Long hairs.....Voice is just my bird voice ......She is just cute ......

Tujhpe koi gham ki aanch aane nahin doon
(Tujhpe koi gham ki aanch aane nahin doon)

Kurbaan meri jaan tujhpe, shaad rahe tu
(Kurbaan meri jaan tujhpe, shaad rahe tu)

Ae watan, watan mere, aabaad rahe tu
Main jahan rahun, jahaan me yaad rahe tu

Ae watan… mere watan!
Ae watan… mere watan!

Then the boy sang loudly .......When signalled by the girl in the centre who has the voice of my bird .......

Lab pe aati hai duaa bann ke tamanna meri
Zindagi shamma ki soorat ho khudaya meri
Zindagi shamma ki soorat ho khudaya meri

Ae watan… mere watan…

All the students sang together and stopped ....Everyone clapped for her ....They four had a group hug .....But I'm searching for her .......As she is getting down the stage.........

But suddenly she disappeared .........I was moving in the crowd of children just searching for her .......

I was just hit on my legs by someone .....I bent down to see the same girl ......With long hairs big eyes .....Chubby cheeks .......

But she looked at me very angrily ..........

Oh hello Mr .....diktha nahi kya ....You spoiled my kulfi ....I thought you are blind.....Deaf bhi ho....I don't know .....Oh god my kulfi........She said...

She is so worried of her kulfi ......My whole family is standing beside me ........Bcoz I'm smiling like a fool .....Looking at her cuteness.....She resembled my bird .....No her voice resembled my bird.....

Oh god ....Even my pocket money is over ....She said  checking her pockets .......I will ask ananya di.....Saying this she ran from there .......

Cabir ....I shouted ....

Kya hua manik.....He asked worried .....

I want two kulfi ......I asked .....

What ???cabir asked in happiness ......

Plzz cabir jaldi......I asked again.....

Mama hugged me .....Plz cabir get it na .....My son asked for it after along time ........She said.....

Cabir went and bought two kulfi ......He came running .......Abhi and dhruv  bought kulfi for all kids ........And ice cream for all the others .....

But I took the kulfi and searched the cute girl .....I found her on the nearby bench .....I went and sat beside her ....The whole family followed me .......

This is for you ...I said her ....

She just moved little far from me.  ......Sorry I don't need it from strangers .......You are the one who made my kulfi fall  down.........She said angrily making a cute pout .....And folding her hands on her chest. ...

I am sorry i didnt see you coming on my way.....Plzz accept it .....I may be a stranger but i am not a kidnapper......I said ....

I know you are not a kidnapper ........
Bcoz you are a singer ......She said ....

You know me ....I asked in shock ......

Yes i know you  mr manik malhotra fab 5 lead singer ........she said ......

I smiled on my self ........Ok so tell me your name cute girl .......I asked again ....

Sorry mama said not to say my name to strangers .........But you are a singer . ....I can say but still i wont say as u spoiled my kulfi....Thats my favourite........And also my last pocket money .....I should wait till i go back home to have my kulfi.......it is just bcoz of you. .....She said in her cute innocent way .......

Ok its my mistake i accept it ....So i bought this kulfi for you ....You can take this and accept my sorry plzz .....I didnt mean to hit you.....Its unfortunate.......I said her ....

She just put her finger on her chin and started thinking .....Ok than mama said if anyone is genuinely sorry for their  mistake you need to accept it ......Ok ....She said and took the kukfi.......I gave her one more ......

This is also for you bcoz you sang so well.....Where did you learn it ......I asked her .....

She took the other kulfi and started to eat it ....After finishing the first one ........She is so adorably cute ......I just felt like sitting beside my bird ......

After completing the kulfi ...Her hands and nose mouth became dirty ....I just took my kerchief and cleaned her hands mouth and nose.......She just kissed me on my cheek.....

Thank you ........She said ......

Can i know your name .......I asked again .......

Ok i am manvi ........ She said.....I was shocked on hearing this name ....I heard it somewhere .....

Ok why is your name manvi.....I asked her .....

Bcoz my mama loves my dad and bua...That's y .......But y is your name manik.....She asked  .......

Bcoz my mama loves ruby ....Which means manik ....A gem....I said her....She just nodded in understanding ........

Ok manvi....Who thought you singing .....I asked .....

My mama thought me singing. ...She sings so well.....Even your songs are so good ......She complimented me ......

Ok ..I said ...But i turned to a side to see naman standing beside me ....I pulled him on my lap ......

Meet my son.....Naman .....

Hai naman.....She said cutely .......

Then i introduce her to all the kids and then to all the elders.....All are talking to her .....But suddenly we heard someone calling her name ............

She turned back to see a lady coming in the direction......She bit her tounge ....Oh god mam.... ab toh main gaye .......

Manvi tum yaha kya kar rahi ho......The teacher asked angrily .....

Suddenly two girls came running ......To her and hugged  her .....

U scared us....tujhe koi idea nahi hae ....Darling  would have killed us ...If you go missing ........One of the girl said......

Manvi....Its time for bus ...Lets go......The teacher said

One minute mam......She said .....

Then she signalled me to come down ....I bent on my knees.....She just  hugged me tight and kissed on my both cheeks .......You gave me two kulfi na thank you .........Bye .......

Tum aur tumhari kulfi pyaar ...chalo na plzz......The boy dragged her with him......She is just looking at me waving  a bye .......I just felt like a part of me is going away from me .......I dont know why but i felt connected to that girl ...........May be there is a saying that people have a re birth .....If thats true .... She is a true copy of my bird ......

As soon as the girl sat in the bus....... I ran to her and gave her a big chocolate and kissed her hand from the window.....The bus started i left her hand........She just gave a flying kiss to me .......By looking out from the window ......And said ....Bye handsome friend.......

I smiled like a fool......But still loved the name ....Handsome friend .....I repeated it for  myself...........

Precap : my birthday ......
