Next morning Aliya woke up to see hall all ready for Manik and Nandini's engagement tears formed in her eyes but reminding herself that "I love Manik and I should trust him" she fought with the tears and move towards kitchen.

Grabbing a bottle of water she was about to move when she saw dhruv coming there.

You up so early asked Alya opening the bottle

Yeah wasn't able to sleep due to environment change what about you asked dhruv placing hands in his pocket

Same problem said aliya shrugging her shoulders but dhruv knew she was lying

Though Aliya was good at lying but still dhruv knew she was lying cause he loves her and that's the power of love may it be one sided or from both the sides but you can read the eyes of the one you love

Once Alya drunk the water she passed the bottle to dhruv who took it and had a sip from the bottle.

After that they both moved towards couches placed in hall and sat there wondering what to do.

You know sharing can decrease the pain said dhruv out of nowhere.

What pain I don't have any pain said Aliya stammering a bit.

You know We have been friends from past 10 years i don't think you can lie from me opossed Dhruv

To which aliya didn't said anything, and what could she say that she doesn't trust manik or she was way too insecure

Tears came out of aliya's eyes unknowingly, Dhruv moved towards her as soon as he saw tears in her eyes.

He embraced her in a tight hug providing he warmth which was much needed to her after a few minutes Dhruv forcefully broke the hug as aliya didn't wanted him to see how vulnerable she is right now.

He broke the hug and wiped her tears.

Dhruv was again going to take her in a hug but he saw Uday and Raj so he moved away and aliya made a questioning face

Soon raj and uday came down giving answers to all her questions.

Bacho tum itni jaldi kaise uth gaye asked uday coming to them.

A silence took over between them aliya was thinking what to answer when Dhruv said wo uncle hum sari taiyariyan dekhne uthate aakhir humare jigri dost ki shadi hai said dhruv in an excited tone to which uday patted both their head smilingly

Badi pakki dosti hai tum logo ki said uday

Hum dono jaise jigri yaar hai ye panchon said raj

They all got settled down and Uday was talking to dhruv and alya

When nyonika along with Yamini entered the room with tray of tea in her ands

Nyonika kept the tray on table and passed one cup to Raj to which he said hum toe apni beti ki hath ki chai piyenge tumhari chai mein ab wo baat nahi hai nyonika said raj to which nyonika just nodded in disbelief and got settled down beside him

Whereas it pinched aliya's heart seeing everyone in manik's family accepting nandini so well she so wished at the moment that she was in nadini's shoes enjoying all the love from manik's family but she couldn't and she knew she won't be able to ever in her life, she was feeling all this looking down on her lap when she felt a tight hold on her hand she moved her head up to see Dhruv smiling at her and she smiled back not a fake one but a real one.

Soon one by one everyone came downstairs but nandini and hayat were still not there

Hayat aur nandini nahi dikh rahi asked raj to which murat made a sad face and said kya batau mein uncle aapko yeh dono ladkiyan aise hai jab ek dusre se mulakat hoti hai toe sab bhul jati hai or hayat uske toe kya kehne hai . aab bataiye Nandini ki shadi hone vali hai toe usse aaram karne dena chahiye par nahi laga diya puri takat apne sath baton mein said Murat dramatically and everyone chuckled on his expression

Tu kyu pareshan karta hai Hayat ko dono subha jaldi uth ke mandir gai thi abhi thodi der mein aati hogi said yamini

Aati hongi nahi aunty aa gai said hayat coming from the entrance door along with Nandini

Nandini went and touched elders feet to which nyonika hugged her and said betiyan kabhi per nahi chuti and kissed Nandini's forehead lovingly

They all got settle down and were talking about engagement nandini was sitting brside prince keeping her head on his shoulder with Priya in her lap. Prince while talking kissed both nandini and priya's head time to time to which every time they giggle. Mukti who was sitting beside manik circled her hands around his biceps to which he looked at her and she smiled which he returned happily and patted her head along with it kissed back of her head.

Cabir Navya ki flight kitne baje hai asked nyonika

Din ko do baje hai aunty said cabir

Aap sab log freshen up ho jaiye tab tak mein or nandini breakfast ready kar dete hai said hayat and everyone nodded

Everyone descended to their respective work while Nandini and hayat prepared breakfast with alot of gossips and teasing.

After having breakfast cabir went to pick up navya. Elders were talking about rituals and youngsters were sitting doing nothing mukti and hayat were having a chit chat about Mumbai's fashion and manik, dhruv were trying to cheer aliya up and murat prince and aanshuman went to office priya, ruhi were playing and roshni,yuvika were talking. In short nandini was getting bored alone she wanted to talk to manik and know about his likes and dislikes but to her dismay she not for once got an opportunity to talk to him.

Hayat yaar i am getting bored said Nandini and both mukti and hayat turned towards her

What you want to do asked hayat

I don't know said nandini

Let's spend some girly time said mukti to which both nodded and stood up to go

Nandini was observing aliya and she knew that aliya was in a bad mood for some reason so she asked her to join them aliya di why don't u joins us

Me what will i do said aliya shrugging her shoulder

We all will be doing nothing just talking pls u too join us na said nandini to which she nodded and went with them

Other side

Cabir halted his car at airport and he moved out, he stood with the support of car waiting for navya

Within a minute or so she came and hugged him and he hugged her back he kissed he forehead and asked how is my baby doing

I am doing good how are you she said

How can I be good without you he said tightening his hold on her

They be there in hug for a while, then cabir loaded her luggage in car and got settled down in car with navya

You have got alot of things to catch up baby said cabir while starting the car

Like what asked navya taking out a sandwich from her bag and moving it forward towards his mouth

Manik is getting married said cabir before grabbing a bite and navya coughed before saying what the f word

Cabir chuckled at her reaction he forwarded the sandwich towards her mouth and started telling her everything

What is manik gonna do asked navya

Don't know he is thinking about it said cabir parking the car

We reached he said and both moved out unbuckling their seat belts

They moved inside to see everyone sitting there Navya moved and touched the feets of elders to which they said betiyan per nahi chuti

She hugged fab 5 and hot introduced with nandini,hayat and everyone else

Soon all went up to get ready for engagement

Nandini was all ready and waiting for someone to call her she was getting nervous with each passing second there was a storm inside her which she knew wouldn't calm any sooner. The day after tomorrow was her marriage. She knew that she is happy but what about manik she didn't knew anything about him was he even ready for this marriage were the things or clearly say questions going up in her mind

Her thinking found a stop when hayat and yuvika came to take her down and they moved out of the room

Meanwhile downstairs as soon as manik saw nandini he forgot to breath beautiful was not even a word to describe her at the moment manik just forgot about aliya it was just him and Nandini no one else around him he wasn't able to blink his eyes if he would get opportunity it wouldn't take him time to lose his sanity and go to nandini

Manik took a deep breath and calmed himself down he looked down and waited for her to come

Nandini was made to sit beside manik the priest chanted some holy words and they both exchanged the rings and with few more rituals

(Manik's ring)

(Nandini's ring)

(Aliya's dress)

(Mukti's dress)

(roshini's dress)

(yamini's dress)

Post the dinner all the girls decided to stay in one room

Cabir's room

Where asked cabir moving towards her

Wo we girls decided to spend some girly time

But you came today after your internship we are meeting after a month please don't go said cabir hugging her and in response navya just kept her head on his heart

(guys one of my reader pointed out a mistake about navya being a doctor so i decided to maker her student of medical in space college)

I know but understand nandini needs to feel comfortable around us and we should make initiative for that but i promise after this marriage thing gets solve we will spend a lot of time together said navya and kissed his cheek

Soon everyone gathered in nandini's room including Aliya

They all were talking when aliya said why don't you introduce yourself nandini

Introduce such as asked nandini being unsure

Tell us about you your friends future plans your subjects and interests explained aliya

So I am nandini murthy the only friend till now is hayat she had been my bestie and we have done almost everything together we have learned 5 languages that are french German Spanish Italian and Arabic together we went to music classes together we have studied together than she moved away due to uncle's transfer. Coming to my subjects I chose science in my school and i want to become an architect . I have interests in writing, reading and singing

Why don't you show some of your writing work said navya

Its not that good i just do it for time pass you won't like it said nandini

Nandini is lying her work is amazing it's just she is shy to show that's it said hayat to which nandini glared her Hayat sahi kah rahi hai said yuvika bhabhi aap bhi nandini whinnied like a child

Dikha do na nandini said roshni

Acha wait i will come with my diary but promise me you won't make fun of me

We won't said everyone in unison

Nandini came out of her bed and picked a diary from her study table

The nights i cried remembering you,
Are those unforgettable nights.
The nights i listened to songs remembering you,
Are those unforgettable nights.
The nights I watched romantic movies remembering you,
Are those unforgettable nights.
The nights I imagined things with you.
Are those unforgettable nights
And The only the only thing I regret is,
I will never be able to forget them

Sitting between your legs withe support of your chest,

We sat on the bed and watch our beautiful images hanging on the wall.All decorated with fairy tale lights,Giving spice to there beauty.Reminiscing all the moments,Opening the cupboards of memories We smiled.But my smiled vanished,When I turned and realized,You were never there.

I want a night full of stars,
We laying down beside each other.
Our hands entangled togather,
We gazing at stars.
Having popcorn beside us,
And sharing happenings of the week,
With each other.
Cold breeze passing upon us,
And looking each other we share a kiss.
What could be better than that,
Other than its my hope not my truth

I wish,
Every morning to wake up with you beside me.
I wish,
To make breakfast for you.
I wish,
To leave for work with you
I wish,
To spend tired nights cuddling and talking to you
I wish,
To have sweet dreams with you
And I wish,
My these wishes come true

(It's all my work please tell me how it is I know no one is gonna do that but still hoping )

That's some of my work said Nandini shrugging her shoulders

Wow, amazing, how cute, so deep were the words heard

Didn't you have any crush or boyfriend back there in School asked roshni to which nandini nodded in no

From the starting I know I belong to someone else said nandini in return she got "i am impressed look " from hayat to which she wink at her

Aliya was drowning in her own thoughts she was drowning into depression she was feeling a tight pain in her heart

Nandini please sing na requested hayat

No i am not gonna do that stated nandini raising he hands up in the air

You know what nandini you should sing cause we should know how well can you sing you know manik sings so well so we should have an idea na how well can his wife sing teased roshini

Show it nandu that you are no less than manik said yuvika

I don't want to show anything to anyone that's it and i am tired I am going to sleep said nandini moving inside the duvet

Please just sing once and then go to sleep said aliya in a very sweet tone

Nandini wasn't able to deny aliya's sweet request so she decided to sing a song

Kabhi usey noor noor kehta hoon
Kabhi main hoor hoor kehta hoon

Kabhi usey noor noor kehta hoon
Kabhi main hoor hoor kehta hoon
Ishq mein choor choor rehta hoon
Door naa jaa...
Naa jaa, aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
Aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
Aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna

Ishq di baajiyaan
Jeetiyan na haariyaan
Jaan se lag gayin
Jaan ki yaariyan

Gin ke dekh badan pe
Neel diye hain Ishq ne...
Pade jo haath pe chhaale
Chheel diye hain Ishq ne...
Ve main saare dukh sehna
Tainu nahi dassna

O laggiyaan ishq di bajiyaan
Jeetiyan na haariyaan
Jaan se lag gayin
Jaan ki yaariyaan

Kabhi usey noor noor kehta hoon
Kabhi main hoor hoor kehta hoon
Ishq mein choor choor rehta hoon
Door naa jaa...
Door naa jaa...

Kabhi usey noor noor kehta hoon
Kabhi main hoor hoor kehta hoon
Ishq mein choor choor rehta hoon
Door naa jaa...
Na ja aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
Aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna

Aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
Aankhon aankhon mein hi...

Tere bin, bin tere sufiyon ke dere
Dekh maine kitne lagaaye phere adiye
Ho chhod ke bhi jaana ho toh
Hari bhari bairi tale
Challa chhad jaayin ni kudiye (x2)

Yaad aa jaaye toh tera naam leke
Jhoom loon...
Shaam aa jaaye toh uth ke chaand ka maatha
Choom loon...
Ve main saare dukh sehna
Tainu nahi dassna

O laggiyan ishq di bajiyaan
Jeetiyan na haariyan
Jaan se lag gayin
Jaan ki yaariyan

Kabhi usey noor noor kehta hoon
Kabhi main hoor hoor kehta hoon
Ishq mein choor choor rehta hoon
Door naa jaa...
Door naa jaa...

Kabhi usey noor noor kehta hoon
Kabhi main hoor hoor kehta hoon
Ishq mein choor choor rehta hoon
Door naa jaa...
Na ja aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
Aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
Aankhon aankhon mein hi rehna
