(Manik and Nandini were cuddling each other on bed.. especially manik was snuggling in nandini's neck and nandini was ruffling his hairs. After sometime, manik looked towards nandini still lying on her and nandini asked him.)

N: Kya huya hai mani? Kuch kehna hai tumhe? (Manik smiled with tears in his eyes and spoke.)

M: Thanku so much angel.. Jo tumne aj mere liye kiya na.. it means alot to me.. Mujhe nhi pata ki main unhe kab puri tarah se maaf karunga but just the hope that I can get my family back is giving me happiness.. Thanku so so much.. (Nandini smiled and spoke.)

N: Mani.. you don't have to thank me.. I know tumhe time lagega unhe puri tarah se maaf karne mein aur unhe apnane mein.. but it's okay.. U deserve that time.. Bas take small-small steps.. baki sab apne ap thk ho jayega..

M: But I need you always beside me..

N: Main tumhe chodkar kahan jayungi mani.. I am always there beside you.. (Both smiled and manik again started snuggling in nandini's neck. Then nandini thought to ease the atmosphere and make manik smile. So, she spoke)

N: Vaise ek secret batayun? (Manik spoke still snuggling in her.)

M: Hmm.. Bolo..

N: Maine jo ye sab kiya na uss mein mera hi ek fayda hai.. isliye maine ye sb kiya.. I was being selfish.. (Manik immediately came out of her neck and spoke confidently.)

M: You and that too selfish? It can never be possible... Meri angel sirf selfless hona janti hai.. selfish kya hota hai uska toh meri angel ko meaning bhi nhi pata.. (Nandini smiled listening to him but immediately spoke.)

N: Arey.. par iss mein sach mein mera fayda tha.. (Manik understood that she is trying to make him smile and spoke playing along with nandini.)

M: Acha.. kya fayda tha apka?

N: Dekho.. iss sab ke baad you are happy right?

M: Hmm..

N: Toh bas.. agar tum happy toh main bhi happy.. Tumhare chehre pe ye jo khushi hai.. tumhari aankhon mein ye jo peace hai.. uss se mujhe sukoon milta hai.. aur maine ye sab apne sukoon ke liye kiya.. Toh huyi na main selfish? (Manik smiled widely listening her words and spoke.)

M: Bhut.. bhut selfish.. (Both chuckled and had happy tears in their eyes.. In nandini's eyes to see manik the happiest and in manik's eyes to see nandini loving him so much that his happiness means the reason of her happiness to her..)

(Both were laying in each other's arms and soaking in each other's warmth when nandini spoke.)

(Okay.. so, next 2 updates.. there will be some cute scenes where manik will behave like a baby and nandini will pamper him. Hey dear @SilentReaderLove I tried to fulfill your wish of nandini pampering manik the way I can.. I hope you will like the moments.)

N: Acha chalo.. ab bhut baatein ho gayi.. ab so jao.. (But our manik is in full on baby mood. So, he spoke making a cute pout.) (Manik never lived his childhood, now all that is okay.. he is having hope to get his family back and nandini being there to give him his childhood and bear his tantrums happily.. he is all ready to be in baby mood with her and behave like a baby with her and only her.)

M: Par mujhe nhi sona na mumma.. Mujhe neenu nhi aa rahi.. (Nandini spoke as it's a very big problem.)

N: Ohh.. ye toh bhut badi problem ho gayi? Mere bacche ko neeni nhi aa rahi.. Ab kya karein? (Manik nodded his head like a small baby.)

M: Hmm..

N: Acha.. ek tareeka hai jiss se mere baby ko jaldi se neeni aajayegi..

M: Kya?

N: Agar main yeh kahun ki agar mera baby abhi jaldi se so jayega..toh kal usse bhut saare surprises milenge tab.. (Manik asked excitedly.)

M: What? Surprises? Kya hai batao na..

N: Nhi.. abhi nhi.. surprises toh kal morning mein milenge..

M: Please mumma.. abhi batao na?

N: Nope.. agar mera baccha abhi good boy ki tarah jaldi se sojayega.. toh mumma baby ko bhut saare surprises degi.. (Manik asked with shining eyes like a toddler gets a candy.)

M: Sachi?

N: Mucchi.. Par baby ko sona padega.. (Manik immediately snuggled in nandini's neck and spoke like a cute baby.)

M: Lo mumma main so gaya.. Ab mujhe kal dher sare surprises chahiye..

N: Done mera baccha..

M: Good night mumma.. (Nandini pecked his forehead and spoke.)

N: Good night baby.. (Then they both drift into peaceful slumber.)

(A new morning.. a new day... Nandini woke up and got freshen up and then came well-dressed and then started waking her sleepy baby. She sat beside manik and started waking him up.)

N: Good morning mani.. chalo uth jao ab.. (Manik baby is still sleepy.. hehe..)

M: Nhi na mumma.. mujhe sona hai.. let me sleep.. raat ko bhi main late soya aur abhi time kya huya hai..

N: 6 baj rahe hain.. (He spoke keeping his head in nandini's lap and snuggling in her tummy.)

M: What? Bas abhi 6 baje hain mumma.. itni jaldi kon uthta hai.. Let me sleep na..

N: Baccha please uth jao..

M: Nhi mumma.. Acha.. Please 5 minutes more.. (Nandini speak after 5 minutes while caressing his haira.)

N: Lo.. tumhare 5 minutes ho gaye.. ab get up..

M: Mumma.. 2 minutes more..

N: Nhi.. utho ab baccha..

M: Please.. (Nandini spoke teasing him because she knew now he will wake up in a minute.)

N: Okay thk hai.. tum so jao.. maine apne baby ke liye surprise plan kiya tha.. ab thk hai.. agar tumhe nhi uthna toh.. Tum so jao.. main jaati hoon.. (Manik immediately woke up and sat straight.)

M: Nhi.. nhi.. Main uth gaya mumma..

N: Mera good baccha.. (Manik smiled and asked being excited.)

M: Acha ab batao na surprise kya hai? (Nandini spoke teasing him.)

N: Surprise? Kaunsa surprise? (Manik whined like a baby.)

M: Mumma... (Nandini pecked his forehead and wished him.)

N: Hehe.. Okay.. pehle toh a very happy birthday mera bachha.. (Manik smiled.)

M: Thanku mumma..

N: Acha toh ab jaldi se ready ho jao.. Tumhare surprise mein sabse pehle maine tumhare liye ghar pe ek puja rakhwayi hai.. Chalo utho.. (Manik frowned and asked.)

M: Puja..? Puja kyun?

N: Arey kyun nhi? Mere bachhe ka birthday hai aj.. Toh usse aiyappa ki blessings milni chahiye na.. Chalo utho.. (Manik's eyes immediately got teary seeing nandini's care and love but he shoo the tears away.)

M: Thanku..

N: Shhh.. Mumma ko koi thanku bolta hai kya.. Chalo jaldi se ready hojao..

M: Okay.. (Manik got up but then asked being hell confused.)

M: Par angel main kya pehnunga.. mere paas toh puja pe daalne ke liye koi kapde hi nhi hai.. I mean traditional wale..

N: Toh ye lo tumhara ek aur surprise.. (Nandini spoke excitedly giving him a kurta-pajama.)

M: Wow.. it's beautiful.. Ye mujh pe bhut acha lagega..

N: I know that.. Chalo ab jaldi se ready ho jao.. (Manik immediately got to freshen up and then came out all ready and came infront of nandini and asked.)

M: Main kaisa lag raha hoon?

N: Mera baby bilkul ek rajkumar ki tarah lag raha ahi.. Mera prince..

M: Only yours..

N: Chalo.. chalein..

M: Ek minute..

N: Kya huya? (Manik spoke like being hypnotized in nandini's beauty.)

M: Wow... angel, you are looking beautiful.. Maine pehele dhyan hi nhi diya... Ye toh vahi dress hai na jo goa mein maine tumhe dilayi thi?

N: Yes.. maine socha tumne mujhe dilayi hai aur aj se better kya occasion ho sakta hai isse pehenne ke liye.. Toh maine pehen li.. (Manik pecked her forehead and spoke.)

M: Tum bilkul mein ek real angel ki tarah lag rahi ho.. Meri angel.. Meri princess..

N: Only yours.. (Both smiled and then they went downstairs to attend puja.)

(Mukti and Cabir has already met with chacha-chachi and made their family to meet them. When manik went downstairs.. all wished him again and he thanked them.. Then he saw chacha, chachi and rishabh and immediately went towards them. He went to chacha and hugged him.)

CHACHA: Happy Birthday beta.. Aiyappa karein ki tum humesha khush raho aur tum jo bhi kaam karo uss mein humesha success pao.. Tumhari har wish puri ho.. (They broke the hug and manik spoke happily.)

M: Thanku chacha.. Aur jab tak ap aur apka aashirwaad mere saath hai.. I am sure ki main humesha khush rahunga aur successful bhi.. Aur meri har wish puri hogi.. bas ap humesha mere saath rehna..

CHACHA: Ye bhi koi kehne ki baat hai.. Bilkul.. Main aur mera aashirwaad humesha tumhare saath hain.. (Then manik went towards chachi and hugged her.)

M: Chachi...

CHACHI: Hayee.. Mera sona munda.. Happy birthday.. Rabb kare tu humesha aise hi sona rahe aur humesha khush rahe.. humesha kaamiyab rahe..(They broke the hug and manik spoke smiling widely.)

M: Chachi jab tak ap ho na main humesha aise hi sona rahunga.. apka sona munda.. aur humesha khush rahunga aur kamiyabi humesha mere saath rahegi..

CHACHI: Bilkul Ji Bilkul.. (Then he moved towards rishabh and hugged him who wished him excitedly.)

M: Champ..

R: Happy Birthday Jiju... (Manik immediately broke the hug and thanked his stars that nandini didn't listen him as she was busy talking with chacha-chachi.)

M: Shh.. Kya bol raha hai.. Agar teri didi ne mere liye jiju word sunn liya na toh vo shock ho jayegi.. fir ya toh vo shock ke maare khud behosh ho jayegi ya fir hamari itni pitayi karegi ki hamein behosh karke hi maanegi.. (Both laughed at this. Nandini saw them and came towards both and asked them suspiciously.)

N: Kya baatein kar rahe ho tum dono aise dheeme-dheeme?

M: Nhi.. kuch bhi toh nhi.. Kyun rishabh?

R: Haan.. haan.. bilkul-bilkul.. (Nandini was still suspicious so rishabh wished manik distracting nandini.)

R: Happy birthday manik bhai.. Many-many happy returns of the day..

M: Thanku so much champ..

R: Bhai.. ye apke liye... (Rishabh gave him a beautiful painting of his in which he has sketched manik with guitar in his hands.)

M: Woow.. it's beautiful..

R: Apko sach mein pasand aaya na?

M: Ofcourse champ.. ye bhut hi sunder hai.. (Rishabh spoke excitedly.)

R: Maine ye khud apne haath se banaya hai.. (Now, this came as a shock for manik.)

M: What?

R: Hmm.. ye maine khud banaya hai sirf apke liye..

CHACHI: Haan manik.. puri raat baithkar rishu ne ye complete ki hai painting.. (Manik got tears in his eyes seeing the amount of love which rishabh has for manik. He hugged him tightly and spoke being emotional.)

M: Thanku so much bachha.. Thanku so much.. (But all this is like a shock for nandini. First.. rishabh calling manik bhai and then manik addressinghim as bachha and the way they are so comfortable with each other.) (They broke the hug and smiled at each other. Manik looked towards nandini and seeing her lost in them asked her.)

M: Kya.. aise kya dekh rahi ho? (Nandini came out of shock and spoke smilingly yet confusingly.)

N: Ye.. tum dono.. aise? I mean.. I am liking it.. infact loving it.. but achanak se ye sab..? (Rishabh spoke smilingly.)

R: Achanak nhi di.. jiss din ap sab goa gaye the uss din morning mein uss sab mein Manik bhai ne hi mujhe sambhala tha.. ek bade bhai ki tarah.. mere appa ki tarah.. haan di.. appa ki tarah.. (Nandini immediately got tears listening to rishabh because she knows what all this means to rishabh. Though she always tried to fill both amma-appa place in rishabh's life but still she was always his amma and now listening rishabh addressing manik as appa made her heart swell in happiness as now she knew rishabh is finally at peace and the way manik is caring for rishabh make her all the more happy.) (But seeing her tears manik panicked and immediately came to her and spoke wiping her tears.)

M: Hey kya huya angel.. tum ro kyun rahi ho? (Nandini immediately hugged manik and spoke.)

N: Thanku so much mani.. Thanku so much rishu ko sambhalne ke liye.. uski life mein appa ki kami puri karne ke liye.. Thanku so much.. (Manik made her calm down by caressing her hairs and spoke.)

M: Hushh.. main toh darr gaya ki pata nhi tum kyun ro rahi ho.. (Manik broke the hug and spoke.)

M: Aur seriously? U are saying me thanku.. Rishabh mera kuch nhi lagta kya.. Jaise rishabh tumhara bachha hai.. same way.. he is mine too.. meri family hai ye.. samjhi.. so no thanku again.. and tumhari aankhon mein ye aansun bilkul ache nhi lagte... (Rishabh spoke easing the atmosphere.)

R: Rehne do manik bhai.. meri di ko na mauka chahiye hota hai rone ka..

C: Sahi kaha rishabh.. (Nandini whined and spoke.)

N: Bhai ap bhi.. (Mukti immediately moved towards nandini and spoke.)

MU: Ayee.. chup karo tum dono.. meri chotti ko aur tang kiya na.. toh dekh lena.. (Nandini hugged mukti and spoke.)

N: Meri toh bas muku hi hai.. (Manik immediately asked being shocked.)

M: Haww angel.. maine kya kiya? Main bhi toh tumhara hoon.. (Nanidni teased him making her monster grumpy.)

N: Sochna padega..

CHACHI: Acha..chalo bhut ho gayi masti.. puja ke liye chalo.. (All went except manik. Nandini saw manik and came to him and asked him seeing his grumpy face.)

N: Chalo mani.. Kya huya aise mooh phula kar kyun khade ho? (He spoke like an angry kid by his hands on his chest and face like a balloon.)

M: Main gussa hoon tumse.. (Nandini frowned and asked.)

N: Gussa? Par kyun? (Manik asked innocently.)

M: Tumhe sach mein sochna padega? (Nandini asked being confused.)

N: Huh? (Manik's innocence is at peak.)

M: Ki main tumhara hoon ya nhi?

N: Mani.. main mazak kar rahi thi... (Manik didn't budge so nandini spoke lovingly.)

N: Mere aiyappa jante hain ki tum mere ho.. sirf mere.. (Manik smiled and spoke.)

M: Sirf tumhara.. Aur tum sirf meri..

N: Sirf tumhari..

N: Chalo.. chalein ab... (Both went smilingly.)

(They went to puja room seeing which manik was shocked and asked nandini.)

M: Arey angel.. humare ghar mein ek puja room kahan se aaya? Iss ghar mein toh koi puja room nhi tha..

N: Vo mani.. maine kal hi decide kar liya tha ki aj tumhara birthday hai toh main puja rakhungi.. aur ye room khali pada tha.. toh maine socha ki isse puja room bana loon.. fir kal raat hi maine saare arrangements kar diye the aur morning mein sab deliever ho gaya.. fir maine morning mein room ready kar liya.. (Manik smiled and shrugged his shoulders casually.)

M: Ohh.. (Nanidni spoke apologetically.)

N: I am sorry.. maine bina puche ye sab kiya.. hope kisi ko bura na laga ho.. (Manik spoke sternly yet lovingly.)

M: Angel.. maine pehle bhi tumse kaha hai ki ye ghar tumhara hai.. tum iss ghar mein kuch bhi kar sakti ho.. koi bhi decision le sakti ho.. koi tumse na hi kuch kahega na hi kuch puchega.. (Nandini spoke being guilty.)

N: I know mani.. par uncle-aunty mujhse bade hain.. mujhe unse toh puchna chahiye tha.. I am sorry uncle-aunty.. Main itni excited thi mani ke birthday ke liye ki excitement mein apse poochna bhul gayi.. I am really sorry agar apko bura laga toh.. (Manik holded nandini from her shoulders and spoke looking in her eyes making her understand each word.)

M: Angel.. meri baat dhyan se suno.. iss ghar par sirf tumhara haq hai.. aur kisi ka nhi.. iss ghar mein koi bhi aaye.. koi bhi jaaye.. iss se mujhe koi farq nhi padta.. ye ghar humesha ke liye tumhara hai... iss ghar se related koi bhi decision lene se pehle tumhe kisi ki permission ki zarurat nhi hai aur na hi koi tumse koi sawaal kar sakta hai.. main bhi nhi.. iss ghar ka har right maine tumhe diya hai.. ye ghar ab tumhara hai.. tum jo chahe vo kar sakti ho.. iss ghar mein kya hoga vo tum decide karogi aur koi nhi.. mere parents bhi nhi.. and I am sure iss se kisi ko koi problem nhi hogi.. (Nandini immediately spoke as she though it's his parents right first.)

N: Mani.. ye kya bol rahe ho? (Manik spoke looking towards his parents.)

M: Main bilkul sahi keh raha hoon.. Aur mujhe nhi lagta ki meri iss baat se kisi ko bhi koi bhi problem honi chahiye.. Right...? (They smiled and spoke.)

M's Dad: Haan beta.. manik sahi keh raha hai.. hamein koi problem nhi hai.. Tum jo chahe vo decide kar sakti hai.. Ye ghar tumhara hai.. Tumhe kisi se kuch puchne ki zarurat nhi hai.. And I know tum jo bhi faisla logi vo hum sab ki bhalai ke liye hi hoga..

NY: Haan nandini.. manik ne kuch galat nhi kaha.. iss ghar ka har faisla lene ka right sirf tumhe hai aur tumhe hi hona chahiye.. ye toh ek mansion tha.. isse ghar tumne banaya hai.. iss par pehla aur akhiri haq sirf tumhara hai.. (Nandini was till hesitant.)

N: Par.. Ap sab ki permission ke bina? (Manik make her understand clearly.)

M: Angel.. Maine kaha na tumhe hum mein se kisi ki permission ki zarurat nhi hai.. Ye haq hai tumhara aur sirf tumhara.. (Nandini knew manik will not listen to her in this matter whatever she may say so she let that go and spoke.)

N: Acha okay.. par ek aur baat hai..

M: Haan bolo..

N: Vo.. maine kaka aur ghar ke baki servants ko bhi puja mein baithne ke liye kaha hai.. I thought vo bhi toh humare ghar ke members hi hain.. toh.. isliye.. (Manik smiled and spoke.)

M: Angel.. maine kaha na ki tumhe pura haq hai.. so never ever hesitate.. okay.. Tumne kaha hai na unhe toh bas vo bhi puja mein baithenge... Tumne keh diya toh bas that's final.. okay.. (Nandini was still hesitant so she looked towards manik's father and mother and they nodded their head smilingly. Nandini smiled and spoke.)

N: Okay..

(They all went inside the room and did pranam to pandit ji.)

P: Ab ap sab baith jaaiye.. pooja shuru karte hain.. (All sat down. Nandini asked manik to sit in front, he sat and then nandini was going behind but manik stopped her.)

M: Tum kahan ja rahi ho?

N: Main vahan baithne ja rahi hoon.. (Manik got up and spoke.)

M: Okay.. chalo.. (Nandini frowned seeing him standing.)

N: Kahan chalo? (Manik frowned and spoke.)

M: Vahan baithne.. (Nanidni spoke making him understand.)

N: Mani.. ye puja tumhare liye hai.. tumhe yahan baithna hai puja mein..

M: Ohh... Okay.. Toh tum bhi yahin baitho.. (Nandini tried to make him undertand but she forgot it's manik and he will not listen to anyone when it comes to her not even herself..)

N: Mani... ye puja tumhare liye hai.. tumhare birthday par.. main yahan kaise baith sakti hoon.. (Manik spoke with all the love in his heart.)

M: Angel.. iss se koi farq nhi padta ki ye puja kiske liye hai.. ye baat humesha yaad rakhna ki tum aur main hum hain.. we are us.. hamare beech ye tumhara aur mera nhi hai.. kuch bhi nhi.. sab hamara hai.. okay.. aj toh tumne mujhe khud se alag kar diya... Par fir kabhi mat karna.. (Nandini smiled listening his words but still spoke.)

N: Mani.. mera matlab vo nhi tha.. Ye puja tumhare naam ki hai toh tum yahan baith jao.. main yahin tumhare peeche baithi hoon..

M: Nhi.. tum mere saath baith rahi ho puja mein and that's final..

N: Mani.. tum zidd kyun kar rahe ho.. main yahin hoon tumhare paas.. tumhare bilkul peeche.. (Manik spoke looking directly in her eyes with all the love he has for her.)

M: Mujhe tumhe mere peeche lekar nhi.. balki mere saath lekar chalna hai.. (Nandini was surprised listening to that.)

N: Mani..

M: Dekho ya toh tum mere saath baith rahi ho ya fir main bhi tumhare saath peeche baithunga..

N: Par.. (Now, manik knew only his cute antics will melt her heart.)

M: Please angel maan jao na.. please for me.. please..

N: Ab main kya bolun.. you very well know ki mujhe kaise manana hai..

M: This is called your manik's talent.. (Nandini chuckled. Then manik sat and then again nandini was moving when manik asked.) (All were smiling listening to manik.)

M: Arey ab kahan chali..

N: Baithne ke liya aasan le ayun?

M: Tum ruko.. kaka vo aasan pass karna.. Thanku kaka.. Ye lo.. ab baitho yahan par angel.. (Nandini sat down beside manik but then pandit ji spoke.)

P: Par beta, puja toh apke naam ki hai.. (Manik spoke lovingly.)

M: Hum dono alag nhi hain pandit ji.. Ap puja shuru kijiye.... (Pandit ji looked towards nandini who smiled and nodded her head.) (Pandit ji started the puja and after some time spoke.)

P: Ab ap sab aarti ke liye khade ho jayein.. (All stood up for aarti and then nandini and manik did the aarti together.) (Pandit ji turned towards manik and spoke.)

P: Beta ab haath jodkar pehle bhagwan ka aur fir apne parents ka aashirwaad lo aur bhagwaan ji se pray karo ki vo humesha tumhari life khushiyon se bhari rakhein aur tumhari saari wishes puri karein aur unka dhanyawd karo aj tak jo bhi unhone khushiyan tumhe di hain uske liye. (Manik nodded in yes but what manik did next surprised everyone especially nandini the most.)

(Manik brought nandini in front of him in a way that he can see god's idol and nandini too and then he joined his hands. Nandini immediately holded his hands and spoke.)

N: Mani.. ye kya kar rahe ho? (Manik smiled and spoke.)

M: Main vahi kar raha hoon jo pandit ji ne mujhse karne ko kaha.. (Nandini frowned.)

N: Huh? (Manik smiled lovingly and spoke.)

M: Main apne bhagwan ko.. apne parents ko thanku keh raha hoon meri life khushiyon se bharne ke liye aur unse pray kar raha hoon ki aage bhi main aise hi khush rahun.. (Nandini immediately spoke not believing what's happening.)

N: Mani.. ye sab? (Manik freed his hands and again making nandini stand straight and joining his hands spoke with all the love, honesty in his heart and eyes for nandini.)

M: Angel.. main bhagwaan mein nhi manta tha.. lekin ab manta hoon kyunki tum apne aiyappa mein bhut maanti ho.. maine kabhi bhagwaan se kuch nhi maanga kyunki maine kabhi unn mein vishwas hi nhi kiya aur karta bhi kaise.. meri life mein kabhi unhone khushiyan di hi nhi thi.. Isliye kabhi unhe thanku karne jaisa kuch tha hi nhi... par haan ab ek cheez ke liye main unhe zarur thanku karna chahta hoon ki vo tumhe meri zindagi mein laye.. tumhare aane ke baad meri life khushiyon se bhar gayi.. meri har khushi ka reason tum ho.. main kya chahta hoon.. kya nhi chahta.. meri kya wishes hain.. mujhse pehle tum samajh jati ho.. mujhe tumse kabhi kuch maangne ki zarurat hi nhi padti.. tum mere bina kahe hi mere dil ki baat samajh jati ho.. aur mujhe ye bhi pata hai ki agar main tumse kuch mangunga toh tum mujhe kabhi mana nhi karogi.. meri life ka agar aj kuch meaning hai vo sirf tumse hai.. aur mere liye mera bhagwaan tum ho aur koi nhi.. Haan tumhare aiyappa mein main vishwas karta hoon.. par mera bhagwan tum ho.. mujhe agar kuch chahiye toh mujhe tumhare paas aana hai.. tumhare aiyappa ke paas nhi.. because I know ki meri wishes sirf tum puri kar sakti ho aur mujhe khush rakhne ke liye tum kuch bhi kar sakti ho.. aur aiyappa se mangne ke liye tum ho na and i know vo bhi tum unse meri khushiyan hi mangogi... Isliye tumse ek request hai bas humesha mere saath rehna.. mujhe aur kuch nhi chahiye.. (Manik spoke further making nandini teary-eyed.)

M: Aur rahi baat parents se aashirwaad lene ki.. toh mere liye mere parents bhi tum hi ho.. maa kya hoti hai.. maa ka pyaar.. maa ka aanchaal.. maa ki care kya hoti hai iska ehsaas sabse pehle mujhe tumne karaya aur infact aj bhi karati ho.. tumhare saamne main bachha ban jata hoon because I know you are there to bear my tantrums happily.. so mere liye meri maa tum ho.. meri mamma... Aur mere father ki kami bhi tumne humesha puri ki.. mujhe humesha protect kiya.. mera humesha support kiya.. meri khushiyon ke liye kya-kya nhi kiya tumne.. harshad ke time tumne apni life tak ko risk mein daal diya.. sirf meri khushi ke liye.. aj mere parents mere saath hain toh sirf tumhari vajah se.. humesha ek father ki tarah mujhe aur meri khushiyon ko protect karti ho.. so mere liye mere parents tum ho.. So.. thanku so much angel mujhe maa jaise sambhalne ke liye.. mujhe dad jaise protect karne ke liye.. mere bhagwaan jaise meri khushiyon ka dhyaan rakhne ke liye.. Thanku so much... (All this is a lot for nandini. Once agin manik showed her what she means to him. She has happy tears in her eyes. All the respect and love which she has for manik grows manifold.) (Manik spoke chuckling easing the atmosphere.)

M: Aur tumhare aiyappa se main bas yahi pray karna chahta hoon ki vo tumhe humesha strong rakhein.. vaise toh main humesha tumhare saath hoon.. har waqt tumhare saath rahunga.. but still meri shararaton ko.. meri badmashiyon ko.. mere tantrums ko sehne ki shakti toh aiyappa ko hi tumhe deni padegi na.. (All chuckled listening his words. All smiled and even they also got teary-eyed seeing the love which MaNan have for each other. They realised the depth of love which manik has for nandini.) (Nandini spoke with tears of happiness shining in her eyes.)

N: Main khushi-khushi ye sab karne ke liye tyaar hoon aur badle mein mujhe bas tumhari ye smile chahiye.. (Manik smiled widely and spoke.)

M: I know.. Thanku for everything.. (Nandini spoke lovingly with gratitude.)

N: Thanku to you jo abhi tumne kaha.. jo bola uss sab ke liye.. Jo tumne aj mujhe diya na vo bhut anmol hai mere liye aur main isse humesha sahejkar rakhungi apne paas.. And I promise I'll try my level best to put up to your expectations always.. Aur main humesha aiyaapa se pray karungi tumhari khushiyon ke liye aur humesha tumhare saath rahungi aur aiyappa se pray karungi ki vo humesha mujhe itni taaqat dein ki main tumhe humesha khush rakh sakun.. (Nandini was clean-bowled seeing the depth of manik's love for her.)

M: I know you will.. (Both hugged each other and then after few seconds broke the hug and smiled looking at each other and then manik went towards chacha chachi and spoke joining hands in front of them.)

M: Chacha-Chachi.. meri angel ke baad vo ap log ho jinhone mujhe maa-baap jaisa pyaar diya.. I know ki mujhe jab bhi zarurat ho main bina kisi hesitation ke apke paas aa sakta hoon apke bête ke haq se.. Thanku for everything... (Chacha-chachi got teary-eyed and spoke.)

CHACHA: Tujhe pura haq hai hamare paas jab marzi aane ka..

CHACHI: Haan.. mera sona munda... mera beta hi toh hai tu.. Hai na? (Manik smiled and nodded his head in yes and then took their blessings.) (Manik's parents felt more guilty but they are happy for their son that he has nandini and her chacha-chachi who loves him like his own son.) (Manik then came towards his parents and spoke with all the honesty.)

M: Thanku mujhe iss duniya mein lane ke liye.. nhi toh main kabhi iss duniya mein aata hi nhi aur meri angel se milta hi nhi.. (Nyonika spoke with tears in her eyes.)

NY: I know maine bhut galtiyan ki hain but I promise main puri koshish karungi ek achi maa banne ki.. (Manik smiled slightly and nodded his head in yes and then turned towards his dad who spoke further.)

M's Dad: Haan.. maine bhi tera bhut dil dukhaya hai but ab main try karunga ki ek acha baap ban sakun.. (Then he hugged manik who hugged him back slightly.)(Nandini was having happy tears looking manik getting his family back.)

P: Bitiya.. ye prashad baant do..

N: Ji... (Nandini wiped her tears and took plate of prashed from him and started distributing to everyone.)

(Then all came in the living room to sit and talk.)
