Nandini was making last dish when she heard Avni's voice... Manik got call so he wasn't there.. avni came in kitchen and saw Nandini cooking..

Avni : good morning Nandini!

Nandini: good morning avni! Did you sleep well!

Avni : yeah.. I had good sleep.. what about you? You okay now?

Nandini: I'm all good.. you can see me here happy...

Avni smiled and side hugged her..

Avni : and I like you happy only.. not being sad or upset.. by the way where is Bhai? Sleeping!

Nandini: got call so he went out!

Avni : what's cooking?

Nandini : breakfast..

Avni :hmm! Shall I help!

Nandini: no I'll manage.. you wake Bhai up!

Avni : he is already woken up... he is taking shower.. he will be joining us very soon..

Nandini nods...

Avni moved to fridge and took juice out and poured in glass.. while drinking the juice she helped Nandini...

At breakfast table everyone was seated expect Abhi and Manik... soon Abhi joined them and wished them good morning...

Abhi : good morning dad... avni!

Avni/ raj : good morning Abhi!

Abhi then moved to Nandini and hugged her.

Abhi : good morning doll! How are you now?

Abhi broke hug and kissed her forehead..

Nandini: good morning Bhai! I'm fine.. don't worry.. I won't be sulking all day.. I love you all... so Nandini is back..

Abhi : I'm glad... never be sad.. okay.. I don't like sad Nandini.. there is no fun without you.. I love my happy and excited baby doll...

Nandini: Bhai I'm not baby!

She winched as Abhi called her baby.. only Manik call her baby or another nickname... she only allowed Abhi call her doll but baby.. she is only Manik's baby...

Abhi: you are baby... look how you winching over baby..

He pinched her nose and sat side raj... Nandini made crying face and looked at raj...

Nandini : dad... look at Bhai!

Raj : Abhi stop calling my princess baby... only Manik can call my princess baby...

Nandini: dad... not you...

Raj stood up and side hugged her..

Raj : bacha...

Nandini hid her face into raj chest and complained about Abhi. While abhvi were admiring them...

Nandini : tell him he can't call me baby...

Raj : he won't... Abhi you won't call princess baby right..

Abhi : yes I won't call her baby...

Nandini came out of raj chest and looked at Abhi.. she smiled at him...

Nandini: come dad.. let's have breakfast then we will decide what to do?

Raj nods and sat down.. he looked at Nandini...

Raj : princess where is Manik?

Nandini : dad Manik got call.. he should be coming back.. I'll go check on him..

Raj nods.. Nandini went to look for Manik when someone held her hand pulled her inside empty room...

While Nandini got shocked and was about scream when a hand palmed her mouth.. she stared at the person and got shocked seeing Manik.. Nandini stared Manik with her eyes wide open... she bit his palm making him withdraw his hand back...

Manik : ouch... Jaan you bit so hard...

Nandini looked at him then his hand... she pulled his hand and kept in her palm... she blowed air on his palm then kissed it...

Nandini: sorry mani.. it was your fault!

Manik : how is my fault?

Nandini: why you pulled me like this? You know I got so scared what if someone came in our house..

Manik palmed her lips...

Manik : no one dares to pull Manik malthora girl like this.. only I have the right to pull like this... got it..

Nandini nods her head only. Manik moved his palm from her lips... he brought his thumb to her lips and traced it... while tracing her lips he looked at her....

He moved close to her lips and bend down to capture her lips in his... Manik sucked her lips with full passion.... while Nandini was shocked to respond.. she didn't know when her lips starts matching his passion.... they both kissed each other pouring their love...

Manik broke kiss and looked at Nandini lips which was slightly bleeding... he rubbed his thumb on her lips again. Nandini smiled at his concern....

Manik again pecked her lips but this time was very quick... Manik pulled her in hug...

Manik : I missed being in your arms....

Nandini: mani...

Manik : hmm!

Nandini: why you pulled me like this? I mean...

Manik : I pulled you like this because I wanted to romance with you... before I could kiss you my stupid phone rang ruining my mood... and you know getting my kiss compete I can't focus... that's why I pulled you...

Manik grinned breaking the hug... as he looked at Nandini he got glare from her..

Manik: Jaan stop glaring me.. why to waste time when you know you can't win over me... since I have got my kiss I'll focus.....

Nandini slapped his shoulder lightly...

Nandini: you need this for kiss only! Couldn't you wait till night.. what's so special kissing me?

Manik : shall I show what special is kissing you... and I can't wait till night to kiss you... I love you...

This three magical words makes Nandini forget everything.. she loves when her mani confess his love for her... she loves it... she just simple wrapped her arms around his neck and tip toed and gave hard kiss on his cheek making him smile then smirk...

Nandini moved and looked Manik who was smirking...

Manik crossed his arms against his chest with a smirk still on his face..

Manik : wow... kiss.. Jaan you improving..

Nandini got pissed seeing his smirk...

Nandini: if you keep smirking then forget kissed and hugs...

Manik's smirk immediately fell and looked at Nandini horrifying way...

Manik : what... Jaan you can't be serious... not kissing or hugging you... no way... I can't imagine my day without kissing you.. or hugging Jaan... Jaan please don't do this... I won't tease you again... sorry Jaan..

Manik tried hugging her but Nandini moved back...

Manik : Jaan.... please..

He made puppy face which almost melted Nandini but she wasn't going let him win today..

Nandini : not today mani... you won't come near me.... come downstairs... everyone is waiting for us...

Nandini left the room without listening to Manik... Manik made sad face and walked down...

Manik came down and saw Nandini serving raj... Manik quietly sat on his seat and turned his plate.... Nandini came to his side and served him... Manik taking opportunity held her hand under the table... she looked at him but Manik gave her puppy look... Nandini moved her leg and kicked his leg....

Manik left her hand immediately...

Raj : what happened Manik? You took time to come!

Manik looked at his father then Nandini...

Manik : actually dad... Nandini...

Raj : what princess? How come she came between this? Manik!

Manik : dad you didn't get it.... Nandini....

Nandini knowing what was going to come out of his mouth palmed his mouth...

Nandini: Manik eat... your food will be cold...

Manik looked at her who was shooting dead glare to him... Manik getting scared nodded his head.. Nandini moved her palm and sat next Manik....

Abhi : by the way Manik why you too so long to come?

Manik : woh... I was talking one of client...

Abhi : that long!

Manik : no I was romancing.... stupid obviously it will take time...

Abhi : why you getting angry? Chill!

Manik glared him and continued eating...

Nandini : Bhai don't wake the monster... he will eat you up...

Abhi giggled but shut his mouth as Manik passed him glare...

Avni : Abhi stop it... stop troubling Bhai... eat quickly...

Breakfast went in silent after that... everyone were sitting in hall... this time Nandini sat beside Abhi hugging him... avni was sitting beside raj and Manik was all alone on one sofa... Abhi who was clever enough to understand something happened between manan... he took opportunity and starts flirting with Nandini which made Manik more angry...

Manik: hello Abhi can you maintain distance between you and Nandini?

Abhi : why shall I?

Manik : Abhi she is my girl... I don't like you being close to her...

Abhi : I don't care... she is my sister...

Manik : Abhi!

Raj : Manik stop being possessive...

Manik : I don't care dad... I really don't this boy near Nandini.. sorry baby but he gets on my nerves...

Avni : Bhai I can feel you..

Abhi : avni you broke my heart!

Avni : as if I care...

Manik : good one baby...

Raj : stop it you both.. have you planed what to do all day or just fighting...

Before anyone could say anything they heard Avni's phone ringing... avni took her phone and saw caller id...

Avni : excuse me guys!

Avni left while manik looked at Nandini who was bitting her nails...

Manik : Nandini come here!

Nandini stopped hitting her nails and looked at him...

Nandini : huh!

Manik : come here!

Nandini stood from her seat and sat next Manik... Manik pulled her in side hug and whispered in her ears...

Manik : what happened Jaan? Why you look worried?

Nandini looked at him shockingly but then realised nothing can be hidden from him.. he can read her like open book.. Nandini gave him nervous smile...

Nandini: nothing is wrong mani....

Manik : you think I'll believe you... come Jaan tell me what's the problem... you never bite your nails unless you worried or nervous about something...

Nandini: can I tell you later...

Manik : okay....

Avni came there and looked at Nandini who was side hugging Manik..

Avni : Nandini...

Nandini peeped from Manik's arm and looked at her..

Nandini: yes!

Avni : can I speak to you...

Nandini nod and gets up.. she followed avni... while boys looked at each other..

Manik : Abhi is everything okay between you and baby!

Abhi : yeah...

Abhi just realised something and got worried.. Manik and raj noticed this...

Abhi : oh shit... how can I forget?

Manik : what you forgot?

Abhi : we haven't told anyone about my and Avni's relation... once I remembered her parents deciding her to get married to someone....

Manik : you really stupid! How can you not share this with them...

Abhi: I thought to tell after proposing her first then talking to her parents... I think avni got call from her parents... what should I do now?

Manik : what should you do now? Instead of flirting with my Nandini you should have thought about this...

Raj : Manik.. this is time to joke... Abhi we will find solution...

Manik moved to Abhi and pats his shoulder...

Manik : why you worrying so much?

Abhi looked at Manik!

Abhi : so what should I do? Shall I dance or sing... no you tell what should you do...

Manik chuckled at his answer and slapped his head lightly...

Manik: you are dumbo... I mean to say why you worrying so much? You already know her parents... they even like you.. if you tell them and make them understand your point view then I'm sure them understand... don't take so much tension about this... let's do one things... let's go out for shopping.. then at evening we will visit Avni's house.. me Nandini dad will come with you... right dad..

Raj : yes Abhi we will come with you.. you are like my son..

Abhi smiled at them but he still feared thinking what will happen today evening.. will Avni parents accept Abhi for avni... those fear was killing him...

Manik knowing what Abhi is feeling.. he kept his hand on Abhi shoulder... Abhi looked at him.. Manik blinked his eye...

They heard girls coming.. boys did notice same worry on Avni's face too..

Avni : dad Bhai I think I should leave!

Manik stood up and held her hand...

Manik: baby wait a second.....

Manik cupped her face...

Manik : baby your Bhai is here... nothing will happen to you and Abhi relation... we will talk to your parents...

Avni : Bhai...

She hugged him while sobbing lightly.. Manik caressed her hairs... he broke hug and wiped her tears...

Manik : no tears.. we will short this out.. okay.. give me your phone I'll talk to maa....

Avni nods and gave her phone to Manik...

Manik called Avni's mother.. her mother picked it up on first ring..

Manik : hello Neela maa... Manik speaking!

Neela : who is Manik? I don't know him!

Manik: maaI know you are angry with me... please... sorry...

Neela : who are you? I don't know you... this is avni phone right.. give her phone...

Manik : Neela maa... sorry...

Neela : I'm not accepting your sorry... why you called me? I didn't knew business man Manik malthora will call me...
