Whole hall was shaking in music been played in background, all shaking their legs according to it and enjoying themselves. Malhotra's party always has a class and unique thing in it, their son's marriage adds Beauty to it. Many can't believe still Malhotra's married their son to a middle class girl which talk of days for weeks. Gossiping about others' lives is something all people will be interested in then their own life, which is happening even today but all didn't notice a drama being played in a corner.

Pari, the name running in Nandini's mind. Thinking about why this girl calls her pari. 

"I am not pari...my name is Nandini.." she said irritatedly, veeba's sister frown turned to  Manik who was eyeing at Nandini in anger.

"Oh sorry I misunderstood you as someone. Sorry.. veeba let's leave.." She pulled Veeba who jerked her hands and walked near Manik whose eye was on Nandini. Nandini rolled her eyes and turned away.

"Bbay, why the hell have you married this bitch??..You said you will marry me..Baby..'' Veeba yelled at her not so beautiful voice. 

"What??veeba stop daydreaming. Bhai shouldn't have said that." Naina said, making a disgusting face.

Veeba glared at her, but gave a tight smile in front of Manik,"He said he will..Manik say something right...Baby..'' Veeba said, holding Manik face tightly, her nail scratched his cheek, amde his trance broken.

He jerked her hand and made her stumble back by the force,"Stay away from me. When i said i will marry you?" He said in his strict voice, Veeba started shivering and made Nandini smirk.

"You took me out For dinner.?and we sl..spend night together..'' Veeba said shamelessly, for which all made faces, Nandini made yuck faces, which Manik noticed.

"It's over all back, don't keep your hopes high. Get out from here before I kill you." Manik said walking to Nandini who became conscious, stood straight when his hands circled around her waist.

"And respect her, she is my wife and princess of this Malhotra's family. Understood?" He said strongly, veeba nodded hesitantly due to embarrassment. Nandini looked at Manik in shock, even though they were acting as a couple in front of all. He don't need to say this and all, Nandini felt her heart melting seeing him always stand at her side.

Nandini looked away when he turned his gaze to her, looking down nervously, fisting her dress tightly.

"You seriously don't know who Pari is??" Nandini frowned, looked at his eyes with something different, it's soft and held pain. She nodded no, looking at him. Manik looked away clenching his jaw.

"I was so right, you don't deserve happiness....selfish women.." he murmured, gritting his teeth, which Nandini heard become angry.

"Oh please, keep your compliments with you. I didn't ask you for my character certificate, ok." She said angrily, jerking his hands around her.

Manik glared at her in anger,"Idiot.. arrogant jerk if you have a problem with your ex..go and talk to her.. Don't show your anger at me..get lost.." she yelled and walked away angrily. 

Mohini and Pavitra smirked seeing it, Raj Ronit and srikanth had neutral faces. Arya was making an impressed face seeing a girl fighting with Manik without any fear. 

Manik just walked away angrily ignoring all stare, walked out to garden area, which was silent. He took his cigarette and lighter, kept it between his lips, lit it and blew air, relaxing himself.

"Selfish women..all care only about money, beauty shit!!...i fucking hate it..all women's are same??" He murmured realising the air out, he frowned when he heard a sound.

He walked otherside of the garden which leads back to the mansion, and saw Cabir beating shit out of someone, Navya crying and shouting to make him stop.

Navya's tear gaze fell on Manik,"Manik..please ask him to stop. He will kill him." She begged Manik.

"Cabir..leave him.." Manik one comment, Cabir stepped back leaving Harshad on floor. Manik walked near Cabir, looked down at Harshad who was facing full blood due to Cabir punch. Navya rushed to help him but was pulled back by Cabir.

"What's happening here??" Manik asked, dragging a smoke inside him, eyeing Harshad.

"Madam, secretly meeting her bf.?" Cabir said kicking harshad who groaned in pain.

"No..cabir please stop.." Navya begged and cried, looking at Harshad in pain which increased Cabir's anger.

"How he came in??What the hell guards doing??" Manik asked, gritting his teeth. He nowhere interested in this drama, he angered how a stranger entered without anyone noticing.

"That's what I am thinking. This bloody man came in to take my wife.." Cabir said angrily, glaring at Navya.

"Stop..I am not your wife. Don't fucking say it." Navya shouted Cabir clenched her jaw tightly, making her hiss in pain. Manik chuckled.

"Shut up if you don't want any punishment.." Cabir clenched his jaw in anger.

Manik chuckled,"Can't handle your own wife. Very sad." Cabir glared at him.

"Don't you dare Manik." Cabir said, Manik nodded, smirking.

"Sometimes words hurt. You can't handle your wife, she is meeting a man at night alone..it's not right for our family, Cabir..be careful." Manik said, chuckling, releasing the air, taping back of his cigarette to let the ashes down.

"Will you shut up??He is not my bf..He is my friend." Navya said angrily, glaring at both brothers.

"Friend, you should take your husband's permission before meeting him. He is inside only.?" Manik said smirking made Navya angry.

Cabir looked away, controlling his anger,"Get in.." Navya didn't listen to him.

"Fucking get in, before I kill him.." Cabir yelled taking gun from his back, Navya eyes widen in shock

"I am leaving please..." Navya begged Cabir who stood angry. Navya glanced at Harshad for the last time, and walked in tears. Cabir called guards and asked to throw Harshad on the road.

"Tch tch.." Manik increased Cabir's anger only.

"You don't need to feel pity on me, Manik. First see your life, which has no meaning. Your wife..She doesn't love you. Remember that." Cabir smirked at Manik this time, Manik clenched his jaw in anger.

"Just because you married her, doesn't give you rights to control her. She hates you now.. Don't forget. She never loved you.." Cabir said, spinning his gun between his index finger.

Manik stood in front of him in anger, looking into his eyes angrily,"I don't need her love or hate...this my life, I only love or hate someone. And that girl is my wife, who I give a fuck. You don't need to think about me, my dear brother. First see your life which is on the edge of ending." Manik said in his dangerous voice.

Both looked into each other in a heat gaze, anger radiating in both bodies. Cabir looked away first, tugging his gun behind.

"Huh??that girl will bring a huge distraction in your life for sure..." Cabir smirked looking at manik

"I am Manik Malhotra, the devil.. won't let a girl to destroy him. He may be destroy himself , won't let anyone control his life." Manik said with a neutral face, Cabir's face softened a bit but he masked it.

"Just like your father, you won't change...You will again fail Manik.....learn the past.. Don't ignore it." He said strictly and walked away, leaving angry Manik behind.

"I am not... fucking hell I am not like him..." He growled loudly holding his head, Cabir looked at him from far with hurt eyes.

"I hope you learn from your past and change..." He said and walked inside, leaving a painful Manik out.

Next morning...

Sun Hits Nandini face straight, breaking her sleep. She groaned and turned in her sleep, only to get hit in the wall.

"Who kept wall on bed??shoo shoo go away.." Nandini murmured with closed eyes using her tiny hands to push it. 

She frowned and felt something poking her hands, "Wall got hair..how.." she opened her eyes half to see green bluish eyes, staring back At her.

"Ayyappa!!wall has eyes...Huh??" She moved closer rubbing her eyes, opened again to see the wall , no Manik face closer.

"Ahhh... Ayyappa!!" Nandini fell straight to the ground. Manik rolled his eyes and sat on bed.

"Ahhh.." she sat on the ground rubbing her back, glared at Manik who was using his phone.

"What are you doing so close??" She asked pouting, Manik glanced at her up to down and again her face.

"It's you who rolling on bed, rino, not me." He said with a neutral face.

"Nandini, he called you rino.." Nandini's subconscious mind yelled.

"He is a monkey...no money will be cuter than him.. giraffe, Godzilla.." she said loudly which Manik heard and glared at her. His eyes again went down and up.

Nandini frowned and looked down to see, her dress hanging weirdly in her body. She slept in her party gown, her left leg fully visible even her pink pantie, and her half breast visible, she crossed her arms to hit it and correct her leg, glared at Manik.

"Pervert..." She murmured stood up holding her back which hurt, walked inside bathroom ignoring him. She freshened up, changed into a long top and jeans, and came out. She had hard time handling saree. She wore mangalsutra and kept vermilion to avoid unnecessary drama.

She walked out of the room to see that the room was empty, though Manik left. She shrugged her shoulders and walked down.

Her legs stopped hearing a voice, and looked around in frowns.

"Ayyappa!! already this mansion look like Haunted house. This sounds..Is it ghost near by..But morning no ghost will come..haha stupid Nandu.." she let out a nervous laugh and walked to the right side of the corridor where the sound was coming.

She peeked from the wall, saw a scene made her eyes widen....in shock..to see Raj held Neyonika against the wall, kissing her.

"Shit Shit!!.... Ayyappa?!I thought only sons are perverts but father are  more shameless..." Nandini hit her head and walked away scolding herself.

She rushed down to the dining hall and sat beside Manik, all looking at her in frown seeing her coming down running.

"Food doesn't run away, why are you rushing like beggars?" Mohini said casually, sipping her juice.

Nandini looked at her, realising her words,"I know food doesn't have legs to run away. I love running and keeping myself fit unlike some people who only eat, sleep." Mohini glared at her.

"And don't compare myself to beggars because they are nicer humans who live on the road due to poverty on food and money, but they have more humanity and love for others...here people living under a rich palace lack humanity and emotion. Please don't compare everyone to a beggar." She said with a tight smile and started eating, Mohini looked away in anger. 

Naina, Pihu smiled at Nandini for it, which she returned and turned to Navya who looked down for a long time. She frowned, seeing her emotionless face, and dull face, her eyes travelled to Cabir who was eating with a neutral face as usual.

"Did something happen?" She murmured which was heard by Manik. 

"Eat your food. It's not important." He said strictly, which made her roll her eyes and start having food. Soon Raj and Neyonika came, sat on their seats. Nandini became red remembering she saw an intimate moment between her in laws, looked down but her eyes stopped seeing a  dry tear on Neyonika face and reddish mark on her neck.

She frowned when Neyonika gaze met her, and travelled to her right and looked away immediately. Nandini turned to see Manik looking at his parents with a clenched jaw, his face so red in anger.

"Do you want something Manik?" Raj asked with a small smirk which didn't look good for Nandini. 

Manik nodded no, glanced at him and Neyonika, stood up and walked away leaving all in confusion. Nandini sighed seeing his food plate and his parents.

"Something is not right. I never saw Mrs. Malhotra shivering this much, why is his own father smirking at manik??It doesn't seem playful. Manik never called his parents, Ma or Papa, why?? Nandini something is not right? This family is not what they show...I need to find out about it." Nandini thought looking at Neyonika who took her phone and walked away.

________

"What the hell is this????You call this a project..redo.." Manik yelled, slamming the files on the table, all shivering in their place and running here and there knowing their boss is so angry now.

"Fucking get lost...You are fired." Manik shouted, all rushed out closing the door behind. Manik leaned back on his chair, rubbing his forehead in tension, angry. Many things roaming around his mind not leaving him in peace. He bent down to open the last drawer which he always kept locked, took out a frame, and caressed it. His face softened seeing it, eyes held so much pain.

"Come back please..I can't leave this life like this.. please baby come back.." he murmured holding his fram closer to his heart.
