Manik was playing a tune (jaise mera tu) when Nandini comes back. Manik looks at her n stops playing the guitar

"I was thinking that lets start from the scratch " Manik said

"Ya I was also thinking of starting all over again"Nandini said also indicating about their equation n Manik understood the deeper meaning.

"Ok so I have cracked a melody u listen to it once" Manik said n played only the tune of the song with his guitar.

"But Manik iske sath veena won't go so" Nandini said

"Umm Harshad will manage the other instruments lets focus on the basic tune n most importantly the lyrics" Manik replied n again started playing the tune. Nandini took her diary n wrote lyrics.

"I've written the lyrics tum ek baar dekh lo whether its ok or not"Nandini said keeping her diary on the table beside. Manik glanced at it n said "sing along"

Instrumental
Uljhi si baatein dil
Mujhse bhi baantein
To mehar.. mehar.. meherbani ho
(Meher.. meher.. meherbaniya)
Khud hi samajh ke mujhe samjha de
To mehar.. mehar.. meherbani ho
(Meher.. meher.. meherbaniya)
(Nandini sings along the tune n Manik smiles)

Ho meherbani jo dil de zubaani
Keh de wo jo na kabhi kaha hai
Aise Tera Main.. Jaise Mera Tu
Aise Tera Main.. Jaise Mera Tu..
(Manik closes his eyes n sings n Nandini smiles seeing him sing. Then Manik opens his eyes n raises his brows to ask her how it was n she smilingly nodded her head)

"So now lets take a break"Manik said keeping his guitar aside

"Navya mera wait kar rahi hai canteen me will see u later bye" Nandini said n avoided him

"Nandini u still didn't forgive me"he said to himself "but koi nahi, aaj humne ek sath gaya, some improvement happened. Let me call cabir"

.......

"Dhruv Manik is really mad at me.... But I wonder usne aisa kya kiya that he was wanting Nandini's forgiveness" alya said

"Pata nahi n Nandini bhi kafi gusse me thi, but chodo na we should plan about our next step ki Manik ke sath tum apni friendship kaise wapas pa sakti ho"Dhruv replied

"Ya... Friendship"she mumbled

Alya's pov:friendship nahi, mujhe Manik ka pyaar wapas chahie. I can't see him with Nandini or anyone else. But kaise. I think first usse dosti hi karni hogi no choice.

Navya was sitting in the canteen when someone throws a paper ball on her. She opens it n finds the picture of a ghost in it.

She gets scared

like this 😄😅

And then tries to get down the chair n hurriedly left the canteen

like this

Then cabir comes laughing n looks at Navya running. Then Nandini enters, confused about what was happening

"Cabir yeh Navya ko kya hua n why r u laughing"Nandini said

Cabir showed her the picture

Nandini's reaction

"You did this"Nandini said

"Haan but mujhe idea nahi tha ki itna comedy reaction aaega" cabir replied amidst his laughs

"Btw tum ye batao manik aur tumhare bich firse ladai hui kya" cabir said

"Nahi to kyu"Nandini said

"Nahi woh Manik ne call kiya tha to meet him"cabir replied

"Manik tumse har baat share karta hai"Nandini said

"Haan aur usne yeh bhi kaha that he genuinely likes u now n usne plan cancel already kar diya tha"cabir said

"Cabir pls I don't wanna talk about it" cabir said

"Ok as u wish"cabir said n left

.......

Cabir comes in jam room where Manik was waiting for him

"Nandini se baat hui"

"Kuch kaha usne"Manik said with hope

"She doesn't want to talk about it. Manik I think she's too scared right now to give u another chance"cabir said

"No cabir. She thinks ki humne jo bhi moments spend kiye the, sab jhooth the. But that's not true. Ab mai use yeh simple si baat kaise samjhau" Manik said

"Give her some TLC"cabir said

"TLC?"

"Tender Love and Care"cabir said

"Kya"manik replied

"Ab kya, kaise yeh sab tujhe hi sochna padega... Its love not call centre tujhe khud hi karna padega"cabir said

"There's no love cabir"Manik said looking down "so pls don't mention love. Care.... "but before he could complete, he found that cabir had already left.

Harshad was sitting in his dad's cabin. Then  Mr Khurana enters

"Harshad how's the album progressing" Mr Khurana said

"Dad its not happening. Woh Manik sirf time pass kar raha hai. Use aap is album se nikal do"Harshad said

"Harshad I don't want ur rivalry with Manik to spoil this album"Mr Khurana said angrily

"Kyu aap apne chote bete ko itna favour karte rehte hai. Nyonika aur aapka divorce ho chuka hai to Manik ko aap bhul kyu nahi jate. Kyu use itna favour karte rehte Hai "Harshad said

"Enough Harshad. Tum manik ko apna bhai kabhi mante hi nahi the bcoz u always fell short of him. Par iska matlab yeh nahi ki tum har chiz ke lie yehi excuse do ki mai use favour karta hoon. Don't forget yeh company maine tumhe de di manik ko nahi jabki manik has equal right to all of this"Mr Khurana said n left

"Manik I'm not gonna leave you. Dad tumhe nahi nikal rahe to kya hua mai tumhe Nandini ke sath perform karne nahi de sakta. Nandini sirf meri hai" Harshad said
