Avoid mistakes if any...

Next morning Nandini woke up first and taking Lime juice for Abhi she moved to his room to find him sleeping with tension frowns on his forehead... She lovingly moved her hand on his forehead removing those frown lines and then he moved a bit and opened his eyes to see a hazy picture of his lovely sister... He could hardly open his eyes to look...

Abhi: Nandu you are up early today... He said in hazy voice.

N: Nope you are late... Look the watch...

Abhi sat there and rested his head on the back rest and groaned in pain...

Abhi: Why the hell my head is paining this much.... It feels as if it will blast any moment...

N: Well sorry that stupid waiter added some punch in the punch... It was not virgin as I had asked them... So you were drunk last night....

Abhi (in mind): Freak me and drunk is a risk... Shit what did I tell Nandu, she is a smart ass to connect the dots... Freak.. Freak... I am not gonna leave that waiter by any chances... But first I need to know what has happened last night... Looking at Nandini I am not seeing any change means she do not know otherwise she would have said something... Let me assume things this way only.... I just cannot risk her knowing things it is a big risk...

Nandini brought him out of his dream world and handed him lime water which he gulped in a shot... While Nandini asking him to get ready moved out from the room..

After Breakfast Nandini asked Abhi to just come with her, he got confused with the sudden plan but he had to agree as Nandini had already asked Raman to grant an leave for him and so he has no way to go from there, while for Raman and Ishita they got a bit relaxed as they know both their kids and now they need not worry as by hook or crook she will get to know what is Abhi upto... But Abhi was tensed as why out of the blue Nandu made some plan and is not telling him about the plan. He was constantly having the fear that what if she got to know everything.. 

Nandini took Abhi to a house, but before that she asked him to wear a hood and a scarf on his face while Nandini too covered herself and they both moved to a restaurant and then from back door they took a cab and moved to a flats unknown to Abhi, he was about to ask something but Nandini cut him and said one thing to which he cannot open his mouth and that thing is nothing else but TRUST...

Nandini knocked the door of a place and within the blink of his eyes they found the door opening and there was Manik standing there... Abhi's fear on seeing Manik increased more and as he knew that what he feared was right.. they knew something and he started to sweat as what blunder had he made in his drunk state..

Nandini entered there and gave a small smile to Manik and on the other side Abhi was being dragged by his hand by Nandini but his eyes were locked with Manik as if finding something but blank and being disappointed with all this he looked the other side but there he stood still shocked..

Well yes there was someone else too who was shocked and that person was in no less state than Abhi, well I know you all know it very well it was none other than Mukti... There were looking at each other with tons and tons  emotions floating in their eyes.. They wanted to hug and kiss out their grief but alas not all we dream can be possible... They were brought out of their world with Manik's voice...

M: Want to hug her, you can I won't mind... I mean yesterday you were begging me to take you to her so that you can feel her in your arms... Now she is in front of you so carry on... I know the feeling where you want that one hug from your love but are in no position to get it..

Abhi looked at Manik to see what he meant to say, while for Mukti it was no less, because she was also brought to this place almost in the same way as that of Abhi... Abhi looked at Mukti to meet her gaze on him but soon turned away as he knew that this is not what he wanted ever.. he cannot just ruin everything now...

M: I am not joking Abhi come on move from there... (But before he could speak more Mukti said )

Mu: Will you both care to explain what is happening here... And why the hell is he here... (she tried to shout in order to cover up their emotions..)

M: Well Why don't you ask your lover boy on what is happening and even better why don't you say me yourself... What have you guys been upto..

Mu: Nothing Bhai... I guess we were pretty clear when we said that we are not together... (But but she could not say it with confidence and stop her voice from shaking) as just the thought of them not being together was making her nervous and feel bad on their fate...

M: Well I guess you still suck at lying my dear sister.. don't you know I am your bhai... I just know everything by looking in your eyes which you are at this moment not able to meet with mine...

Abhi: Manik...

M: Yes jijaji....

Abhi was shocked...

M: Shocked Much... well there are some more in store... So confess because we know everything...

Mukti hung her mouth open while Nandini now said..

N: Yes Mukti everything.. so don't you both dare to lie anymore..

Abhi knew that they cannot run now and said a sorry... He knew he created the blunder In his drunk state...

N: Bhai really a sorry... That means both of you never trusted us enough na.. How could you... she was way too angry on both of them...

Abhi: We were protecting you guys and our families..

Mu: Abhi is right... We could not let all this affect you people...

N: And not telling us has not made any difference right, it has not affected anyone of us...

Mukbhi had nothing to say after that...

Manik took  Nandini in side hug as tears made way from her eyes, she was sensitive in all this...

M: Ok guys now what are you people upto to get rid of that idiot insect in the name of Harshad Arora....

Abhi: Manik you guys do not need to get involved in this. We are already working... That is the reason we did not inform anything to you guys...

Manik sighed and said to nandini in dejected tone...

M: When will they understand that the whole family is suffering in all this and we are no different from them... ( He looked at Mukbhi and said in an authoritative tone) I need it now or else I will make my people and my plan work on it and you guys will be locked down in room...

Mu: Bhai, we are just trying to know the reason as to why all this is happening...  

M: Is that really so, because I know you know the reason. 

As soon as Manik said this Mukti looked down as this is known to her the reason, the reason is none other than her...

M: WEll now that your silence speaks so out with the plan...

Abhi then knew that he cannot do anything and so he said the whole plan to Manik and Nandini who was listening to each and everything in detail and once Abhi was done they all sat there thinking and then Manik made few changes in their plan  along with Nandini giving some inputs...

Once done with all this they hugged each other tight.. While Mukti too hugged Abhi tight as it was days and days when she got to be with him, while how can Manik  let them be, he asked them both to be there in that house for some time while Manan moved to terrace to give Mukbhi some privacy.

But before leaving Manik leaned to Abhi's ear and said...

M: Just grab these moments, they are difficult to find you see.. And haan just be yourself as the whole floor is empty..

Saying this he winked at him and moved out.. Holding Nandini's hand. 

While down there with the much needed privacy Mukbhi were having their time enjoying themselves. They were busy in themselves hugging and kissing and making up to the lost time and with less hope that they will ever be able to get through all this... While for manan it was like cherry on top. 

Both Manik and Nandini were just there sitting in shade looking at infinity and doing nothing else but holding hands, while Nandini's head rested on Manik's shoulder...

After what felt like forever in that comfortable silence Nandini asked...

N: Whose house is this?

M: Why do you wanna know...

N: Just curious you see...

M: Fine it is our, I got it soon after our engagement... 

N: But why?

M: Are just as an investment... Actually I would have gifted it to you earlier but then I did not want to as I know where the horses of your brain would work... So bas had kept it as it is...

N: Well you are right and you need to keep it clear in your mind that at no point of time am I gonna leave the family..

M: I did not ask also... But you see we lack some privacy there.. So at times when we want it nothing else is better than a small place... 

Manik said all this huskily in Nandini's ears...

Nandini hit his chest but snuggled more in him... 

N: Why can't at times you just talk simply, you always have to twist things...

M: Hwww Nandini I just said privacy... I mean I did not say anything else.. It is your polluted mind my dear...

N: Manik.... Well it is the company that I am in these days that has polluted my mind... beacuse my husband at times is just a one track mind...

M: Are what this is the truth... And dare you blame me... You chepo...

But before Manik could say something more in teasing his phone rang and it is Abhi.. So he picked up and there Mukbhi decided to end their little romance and cuddling session...

Once leaving that place it was final that they would set the plan in place at the earliest...

Manik said Nandini that he would pick her up in the evening...

They all left in the same way they came but there was a difference and that difference was that there was some sort of relief on Mukti and Abhi's face... That relief that said that they will be together no matter what...

Soon in evening Manik came back to pick Nandini after office and they moved to Malhotra Mansion..

Next morning it was new in determination in all 4 minds to get back the smiling face of their families.. That determination was what brought them into action at the earliest...

The first step was, Manik took the deal into consideration so that he can bring Harshad face to face but he offered the deal from Manan's own company so that Malhotra Industries do not face anything...

Manik and Nandini both were sitting there in office waiting for their first punch to Mr Harshad Arora from their side...

 Harshad's chapter will be over soon in the next one mostly...

So guys what are your views..

Stay blessed stay happy ppl...
