Today is my birthday.. hey.. hey..

Okay.. so as birthday gift.. here is your update..

First of all.. A very warm and special thanku to all my amazing and awesome readers.. Thans a ton guys for always being there... Thanku so much.. 

Secondly.. here are the various wishes of my readers which they want me to incorporate.. So.. here you go..

PanktiMaru - Your wish was that nandini steals cabir good and fight on that- I didn't get any idea for that so i showed nandini fighting and ordering cabir for teddy bear in chapter 17-3. Hope you liked it.

PanktiMaru- Your another wish was that nandu fights with mukti and navya for a dress- I have shown that in chapter 17-2 though not directly but indirectly but to compensate it i have shown nandini fighting with them for chocolates in chapter 17-2. Hope you like it.

FidaArora- You wanted that nandini wish to have late night ice-cream with manik. I have shown it in chapter 17-6 but not only with manik but also with others. Hope you like that part.

FidaArora- You wanted nandini to have shopping with mukti and navya and there she demand of chocolate and teddy-bear from mukti. I have shown it with slight change that is chocolates from mutki and teddy bears from cabir in chapter 17-2 and 17-3 respectively. Hope you like it.

FidaArora- Your other wish was that nandini should have bak-bak with everyone. There are many instances of that in the whole shopping part where they fight with them or order them or talk with them regarding anything or everything. 

ItsMeLuv- You wanted me to add song zehnaseeb in the story. I have added it in this chapter 17-7. Hope i justified with the situation and the song and you like it and i put up to your expectations.

Thanku to all of you for taking out your precious time and reading and loving my story.. Thanku..

So.. here goes the update....

IN THE PARK:

(After dinner and ice-cream.. as the weather was good... they decided to sit in the park outside the hotel for sometime. Nandini and Manik were sitting beside each other. They were sitting when mukti asked manik to sing something. Manik was going to deny but before that nandini also asked him to sing and how can manik deny his princess's wish. So, he smiled and agreed and then started singing the song looking at nandini.)

Zehnaseeb Zehanaseeb
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zahnaseeb..
Mere Kareeb, Mere Habee
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zehanasib..

Tere Sang Beete Her Lamhe Pe Humko Naaz Hai
Tere Sang Jo Na Beete Uspe Aitraaz Hai..
Is Kadar Hum Dono Ka Bandhna Ek Raaz Hai..

Hua Ameer, Dil Gareeb
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zahnasib..
Zehnasib Zehnaseeb
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zahnaseeb..

Lena Dena Nahi Duniya Se Mera
Bas Tujhse Mujhe Kaam Hai
Teri Ankhiyon Ki Shahar Mein
Yaara Sab Intazaam Hai..

Khushiyon Ka Ek Tukda Mile
Ya Mile Ghum Ki Khud Chale
Yaara Tere Mere Kharche Mein
Donon Ka Hi Ek Daam Hai..

Hona Likha Tha Yoon Hi Jo Hua
Ya Hote Hote Abhi Anjaane Mein Ho Gaya..
Jo Bhi Hua, Hua Ajeeb..
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zehnasib..
Zehanaseeb Zehnaseeb
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zahnaseeb..

Hua Ameer, Dil Gareeb
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha Zahnasib..

Zehnasib Zahanaseeb
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha
Tujhe Chahoon Betahasha
Zehanseeb....

In all song manik and nandini shared an eye-lock and beautiful smile was adoring on their lips.

(When manik ended the song.. nandini smiled widely making manik smile to his fullest. Nandini, Harshad and Navya clapped for him and then started appreciating him.)

N: Mani.. it was beautiful.

NA: Sach mein manik.. you have beautiful voice..

H: Sachi mein manik. I have heard you singing after a very long time as you know during our differences.. I used to avoid listening your songs and hearing you sing live was out of question.. but today I heard you and sach mein your voice is mesmerizing.. Infact.. with time it felt more beautiful to hear you sing.. I can feel your happiness in your voice.. (Manik smiled and thanked them.)

M: Thanku guys.. (Nandini being overly-excited spoke.)

N: Sachi mein mani.. it was damn awesome.. It was magical.. (Manik smiled beautifully and spoke.)

M: Thanku my angel.. It was my pleasure.. (Nandini smiled and then looked towards cabir and mukti who were sitting with their eyes wide open and their jaws touching the ground. Nandini frowned seeing them like that and asked.)

N: Cabir bhai.. muku why are you sitting like that.. like kisi ne apko shock de diya ho? (All others also saw them and frowned seeing them like that.)

NA: Haan.. tum dono itne shocked kyun lag rahe ho? You toh obviously have heard manik singing? He sings with you guys.. Tum toh aise behave kar rahe ho jaise first time isse gaana gaate huye suna ho.. (Mukti came out of shock and spoke.)

MU: Somebody pinch me.. (Cabir also spoke in daze.)

C: Me too.. (Nandini frowned and asked.)

N: Huh.. Ye kya bol rahe ho tum dono.. kya hogaya hai tum dono ko? (Mukti spoke still being shocked.)

MU: Manik singing a romantic song.. Am I dreaming?

C: Mukti.. yr.. hum dono saath mein ek hi time pe ek hi dream kaise dekh sakte hain?

NA: Kya pagalon jaisi baatein kar rahe ho tum dono? Pehli baar suna hai kya manik ko gaate huye?

H: Haan.. mukti kya ho gaya hai tumhe?

MU: Yr.. manik sang a romantic love song. (Manik was looking here and there because he know what's the matter with them.)

N: Haan.. toh iss mein why are you guys getting so shocked?

C: Arey.. shocked nhi hoyenge toh aur kya hoyenge? (Now, manik was feeling embarrassed.)

M: Guys.. stop it.. itna bhi kya ho gaya.. why are you taking it so far by exaggerating it so much..

C: Arey.. tune.. tune romantic song gaaya.. can you believe it? Tu aur romantic song.. Tune aj se pehle kabhi romantic song nhi gaya hai.. (Now.. it's the time for others to be shocked especially nandini.)

N/NA/H: What?

MU: Haan.. He always used to sing funny and rock songs or sometimes songs based on friendship.. His emotional genre is only for friendship songs. He never ever sang any love song and that too so romantic one with full of emotions.. (Nandini frowned and spoke but manik immediately stopped her.)

N: What? Par uss din toh.. (Manik immediately holded nandini hand stopping her to speak further. She looked at manik and he gestured her not to say further. So, she keep quiet. Mukti and cabir were still in trance and harshad and navya were busy in absoring this news, so no one saw manan's silent convo.) (Cabir came out of his trance and smiled and spoke appreciating manik.)

C: But manna padega manik.. u were amazing.. kahan chupake rakha tha tune ye talent apna.. I have never heard such a romantic love song in such a beautiful voice.. And I am damn sure you only have written the lyrics.. It was damn awesome.. (Mukti also smiled and spoke.)

MU: Yes.. it was so-so beautiful and mesmerizing.. I totally loved it.. (Manik was totally getting embarassed.)

M: Ab bas bhi karo guys..

C: Arey aise kaise.. tune first time romantic song gaya and it was damn beautiful..

MU: Sach manik.. I never knew that you can write romantic love songs too.. (Manik smiled and spoke looking towards nandini.)

M: Main pehle nhi gaata tha romantic songs.. but now I have my angel with me in my life who always spread love around her.. so thoda asar toh hoga hi na mujha par.. Toh words apne ap hi bante gaye.. (Mukti appreciated him.)

MU: And they were beautiful.. (Nandini frowned and spoke.)

N: Mani.. ye kya baat huyi.. It was all your efforts.. don't give credit to me.. (Manik  smiled and tightened his hold on her hand and spoke.)

M: My everything belongs to you angel.. so this also.. (Nandini blushed listening to it making manik smile to his fullest.) (All smiled seeing the madly in love couple.) (Manik spoke.)

M: Chalo guys.. so jate hain.. subah humein jaldi uth kar nikalna bhi hai.. (Nandini immediately spoke whining cutely.)

N: Kya? Hum itna jaldi vapis ja rahe hain.. Itni jaldi kyun papa.. kal sham ko nikalte hain na? Abhi aur enjoy karna hai.. Plshh.. papa.. (Manik spoke lovingly.)

M: Arey.. mera baby.. hum vapis nhi ja rahe hain.. par kahin aur ja rahe hain.. (Navya spoke worried;y.)

NA: Hey mata rani.. hum itni subah aur kahan jayenge.. parson college bhi jana hai.. (Manik spoke.)

M: Hum pune ja rahe hain... (nandini frowned and asked.)

N: Pune? Mani.. pune kyun? (Manik smiled and spoke.)

M: Remember.. I told you about your surprise.. (Nandini immediately became excited listening the word surprise.)

N: Oh.. yess.. I remember.. Toh vo surprise pune mein hai?

M: Yes..

N: Kya surprise hai mani.. batao na..

M: Princess.. bas kal sham tak wait karlo.. tumhare liye hi hai surprise.. tumhe hi milega.. pls..

N: Okay.. (Manik smiled.)

M: Chalo ab sab chalo.. chalkar so jate hain.. We have to wake up by 6.

C: Chalo.. let's get going guys..

M: Guys.. tum sab chalo.. mujhe ek call karna hai.. Angel.. tum yahin ruk jao fir hum saath mein apne room mein chalenge..

N: Okay..

(All bade good night to each other and here manik went to a side to call someone to ask about the arrangements for tomorrow but he was seeing towards nandini to make sure she was alright and here nandini was thinking something deeply. Manik finished the call and came back to nandini and seeing her lost in thinking asked her.)

M: Kya huya angel? Kahan khoyi ho?

N: Mani.. main kuch soch rahi thi..

M: Kya soch rahi ho.. Mujhe batao..

N: Vo cabir bhai & Muku aise kyun bol rahe the ki tumne pehle kabhi romantic song nhi gaya.. tumne uss din gaya toh tha mujhe sulane ke liye aur tumne mujhe roka kyun ye baat sab ke saamne bolne ke liye.. (Manik smiled and spoke.)

M: Kyunki cabir aur mukti sach keh rahe the.. maine pehle kabhi romantic song nhi gaya.. Jo romantic song maine uss din gaya tha tumhe sulane ke liye.. vo mera first romantic song tha jiski wording maine khud likhi thi aur wahi wala tumhe uss din sunaya tha sulane ke liye.. (Now this came as a shock for nandini.)

N: What? (Manik spoke further.)

M: Yes.. aur maine tumhe isliye kuch bhi bolne se roka because I don't want anyone to know about it. (Nandini whispered and asked.)

N: Why? (Manik smiled and holder her hand in his and spoke looking straight in her eyes with all the love he has for her.)

M: Because it's our memory to cherish forever. That was the first song that I have written for you.. only for you... and I sang it for you only.. It was only and only for you and it was one of our beautiful memory. I don't want anyone to know about it be it our friends also.

M: If you have said that then they would have asked me to sing that song again and share the lyrics with them but I don't want them to know. The song was for you.. you know it.. you heard it.. you appreciated it.. that's what matters to me.. I know you never appreciated it directly but the peace that surrounded you after hearing the song was my reward and I need nothing more than that.

M: If you want I will sing that song again... but only in front of you and for you. I don't want anyone to hear it not even our friends. It was solely for you and it was only and only our memory.. our moment.. No one has any right on it except us..

M: Infact.. the song which I sang today was also for you only and it was meant for you only to hear but since you asked me to sing something I couldn't stop myself from singing that song.

M: I am not going to record these songs ever because these songs are our memories and our feelings. If you want I'll record them for you.. but mind it only for you to hear.. not for any other person.. Both the songs and infact coming many songs which I will write and sing for you will be special for me and for you too and there will be only us who will cherish them, infact not only me or you.. but US. Every song will be special because it will be solely for you but the first song was way too special for me because it was the first song.. first gift from my side to you. (Nandini got tears hearing all that and seeing all the love for her in manik's eyes.. she felt blessed to have manik in her life. She is thanking her aiyappa.. her destiny for giving manik to her. But manik became worried seeing the tears in his angel's eyes and immediately asked her cupping her face.)

M: Hey.. hey.. shh.. shh angel.. why these tears? (Nandini smiled and spoke still sobbing lightly.)

N: Thanku mani.. Thanku so much for making each moment of my life so special and thanku for giving me so many beautiful memories to cherish forever. Thanku for that song.. Thanku for your gift.. Thanku for all the coming songs that you will sing for me.. Thanku for everything.. I promise I will cherish your songs and these beautiful moments... these beautiful memories.. whole my life.. Thanku so so much.. (Manik smiled listening to her words and immediately hugged her and spoke.)

M: Shh.. meri jaan.. shh.. Meri angel sirf smile karte huye achi lagti hai.. Ye mote-mote aansun tumhari inn chotti si aur pyaari si aankhon mein bilkul ache nhi lagte chahe fir vo khushi ke hi kyun na ho.. (Nandini tightened the hug. Manik tightened the hug more and smiled and spoke.)

M: And you don't have to say thanku.. My everything is yours rightfully. You just enjoy and cherish these moments and keep smiling... That's all I want.. (Nandini gave him her beautiful smile making manik smile. Both break the hug and manik spoke.)

M: Chalo.. ab sone chalte hain.. (And then manik immediately carried nandini in bridal style and spoke beautifully.)

M: I love to carry you.. (With this nandini has nothing to say and she just snuggled herself more in him and they went to their room and manik put her comfortably on the bed and then slept beside her.)

(With this they went to sleep and this time without any hesitation they slept in each other's embrace to welcome the new morning.) 

(Slowly-Slowly they are taking steps from becoming Manik and Nandini to MaNan.. from being two individuals to one soul.. from two hearts to one heartbeat beating for each other...)
