In Dixit Palace

Discussion Room

TICK TOCK..TICK TOCK..

Well, it's been half an hour that the elders were hearing only the sound of a clock, which is used to know the timing of Paris.

But, the looks on their faces were worst. They looked at each other and then gave a hard glare to their kids, who were busy in talking with each other and reading something, who were sitting on the floor.

Akash ( annoyed ): Tumhein se kiske baap phirse baap bannewale ho M5 and Fab 5..??

And the kids snapped their heads at Akash in shock while the elderly men simply rolled their eyes. This was so common, for them..!!

Abhi ( shocked ): Whatt..!!! Baap bannewale ho, iss umar mein..?? Papa, ab tho mujhe baap banna chahiye aur aap hai ki phirse baap bannewale ho..??

Vishal ( glared at Abhi ): Chup karo Abhi, Ritu aur Ri abhi bhi bache hain..

Cabir ( raised his eyebrows ): You mean, a guy is still a baby even after turning to 18..??

Vishal glared at him making Cabir shut his mouth..

Lalith: Akash, tum kuch der keliye chup nahi reh sakthe ho kya..Jo bhi bolthe ho, wo dramatic hojathe hai..

Akash: Abey tu apne bacho ko pehle bol dho teek se muh kholne keliye thab mein apna muh bandh karoonga..

Arya: According to General information, you cannot have a conversation with someone without opening your mouth and Cabir, Abhi Bhai and Vishal Bhai just had a conversation with you guys, so how is it possible to say that they weren't opening their mouths when they practically had a conversation with you and even now I'm having a conversation with you, now. So, does it mean, I'm dumb..??

M5 looked at them with the hardest glare possible while Fab 5 were gaping at them. And elders had to zip their mouths.

Abhi ( bored look ): Soha, tum isse shadi kyu karna chahthi ho..? Mein tho aur kisiko doondke tereliye lekar aaonga..

Soha ( sadly ): Kya bathaoon Bhai, pyar kiya tho rona hai..

Nandini ( frowned ): Isn't it pyar kiya tho darna kya..??

Sid ( hit her head ): Abey kameeni, ab tujhe uss movie ki padi hai jisko Salman Khan hi shayad bhool gaya hoga..

Nandini: Oye Gadhe, Salman Khan tere paas aake bol diya hai kya, Sid beta, mein tho " Pyar kiya tho darna kya " ke barein sab kuch bhool gaya..

Sid: Usne tujhse milne keliye nahi aaya tho tu ithne jealous kyu hothi ho..? Mathlab, tere paas Manik hai na, kaafi hai, Sallu Bhai tho Manik se bhi old hai kameeni..

Manik: Oh hello, tum dhono lad rahe ho tho mujhe beech mein kyu laa rahe ho..Mein yaha chup chap beit raha hoon na..

Cabir: Wahi tho mein bhi soch raha tha, ithna sannatha kyun jab Manik Malhotra maujood hai..

Manik: What the heck does it mean..? Mein tujhe aawaaz machine dikh raha hoon kya..??

Mukti ( frowned ): Aawaz machine..?? Wo kya hotha hai..??

Navya: Mujhe lagtha hai, iska mathlab Radio hotha hai..

Nandini ( scrunched her nose ): Tho Radio bol na..why do you bring such chipku names, Mani..

Dhruv: Oh hello, aawaz ki auladein, ek minute keliye chup rahe sakthe ho kya..

Dev ( irritated ): Ek ne Aawaz machine ko pakad liya aur doosre ne Aawaz ki auladein ko pakda, acha khasa buddies hi hain tum dhono..

Manik and Dhruv grinned sheepishly at him..

Arya: Arey par buddy, tum ithna irritate lag kyu rahe ho..Sona, tumne isko morning dose nahi diya hai kya..

Sona, who was sitting silently beside her mother-in-law widened her eyes in shock, getting teased by M4 was no new to her but she didn't expect to get teased in public.

Abhi: Oye, bichari ko tang kyu kar rahe ho..Sona, ignore him...Waise, Dev, tumhe dose nahi mila kya..

And this time, it was Dev who blushed..Nandini slapped Abhi's arms who pouted at her..

Nandini: Sona ko beech mein laane ke kya zaroorath the..ladne ke baarein mein sochthi thak nahi wo..

Soha: Wahi tho, hamesha uspe jaa rahe ho Arya..

Arya: Baby, mujhe kisiko tho tease karna hai na..

Sid ( smirked ): Bhool gaye kya buddy ke buddy, ek aur couple hain hamare family mein, jo ek kamrein mein sone keliye apne Papas se bhi permission liya..

And he looked at Nandini and Manik who were sitting wrapped in each other's arms. Nandini glared at them while Manik simply ignored them, he's with his girlfriend..

Nandini: Abey gadhe, tujhse kisine kaha kya ki uss ladki ko date kare jisko sirf lap dance dena aathi hai..nahi na, tho jaakar ek achi ladki ko patao aur shadi kar, phir bath kar..samjhe chomu gadhe..

Sid ( glared ): Chomu kisko boli kameeni..

Nandini: Duh..!! Mere nazar mein sirf ek gadhe chomu hai, aur wo hai Sidharth Kapoor..

Sid: Teri tho..

He took his shoes and was about to throw at her when Manik shot a glare at him..

Manik: FYI, your best friend's boyfriend is sitting beside her, zaroor pitega..

Sid made a bad face while others chuckled..

Sid: Dekhloonga tujhe kameeni..nahi, kameeni ki Ma hai tu..

Manik ( scowled ): Oye, mere future bache pe math jaa..

Nandini hid herself in Manik's chest and after seeing other's amused looks, he realized what he said and he too gave a nervous smile to the rest..

Cabir: Kya bath hai, future palnning abhi se hi shuru kiya..

Arya: Mathlab, bache thak pohanch gaye..haww..kithne besharam nikli tu Munchkin. Tera Bhai, yaani ki mein yaha khada hoon jiske shadi thak nahi hua aur tu hai ki bache paida karne mein busy hai..

Soon, he was rewarded with a slap on his head, by his mother..

Shanno: Chup hoja..Ritu hai yaha pe aur kya kya kehna shuru kiya tum logo ne..Bhai, aap kuch bol kyu nahi de rahe hai..

And she looked at the men who were giving her " seriously " looks..

Swayam: You think, we would like to intrude in between these " alien " creatures..??

Nandini ( jaws dropped down ): Alien creatures..??

Ranvir ( scowled ): Aur nahi tho kya kahoon..Kab se pooch rahe hum " what's going on, will someone enlighten us up with your pearl like words " par nahi, tum log tho dumb nikle..

Arya ( scratched his head ): Mathlab, you just answered to my question and you called me dumb..??

Sid ( smacked his head ): My poor sister just committed a mistake by choosing you as her life partner..

Arya: Oh hello, she would never get a better person than me, in her life..

Sid: Yeah right. The world is ending..

Vishal: Okay, that's enough people..

Abhi: Wahi tho, kab se bak bak kar rahe ho..

Lalith: Tho tum abi thak chup tha kya..??

Ravi: Chup hone ka mathlab tho seekhne dho pehle..

Poorvi: Acha, hogaya na ab..bacho, kya ho raha hai ye sab..

M5 looked at each other and then at Fab 5, who were also smirking at the elders.

Dev ( smirked ): Well, nothing much. We were just going through the materials..

Raj ( raised his eyebrows ): Materials..?? As in..??

Manik: Nothing much Dad, we were talking about the materials which were needed to delete the chapter named " Chiraag Khanna " from our lives..

The elders gave a shocked look to them and they simply shrugged it off. They dug their heads back into those papers..

Rohit: What does it even mean..??

Cabir: Arey, delete means.."to remove or obliterate" Chiraag Khanna from our lives.simple..

The elders have a hard glare to Cabir and they looked at Akash..

Viren: Sab teri galathi hi hai, khud ek kameena bann gaya isiliye bete bhi nikla baap jaise..

Akash: Oh hello, mein koi kameena nahi hoon, thoda zyada intelligent hoon aur tum logon ne aaj thak compliment nahi kiya..

Raj: Compliment, wo bhi ithna dramatic honekeliye..??

Akash: Dramatic aur mein..?? Raj Malhotra tho aise bathein kar rahe hain jaise ki usko DRAMA ki mathlab hi nahi jantha..

Lalith: Abey chup karna..tu muh kyu kholthe ho, Akash..

Akash: Ek khana khaane keliye aur doosra khaana khaane keliye aur teesra khana khaane keliye phir business karne keliye, bina muh kholke koi bhi insaan business mein kuch bhi achieve nahi karega..

Nandini ( muttered ): And they were telling we were being dramatic..

Manik ( pity face ): True, baby..

Ranvir: Forget it, you're a gone case..bacho, ab poora ka poora plan phek dho hamare samne..

Sid ( sighed ): Ye hamara plan hai, papa. Phek nahi sakthe..

Ranvir: Oye, ye Ranvir Saxena ke style hai. Ab bath aage bado..

Nandini: Gosh, aap log pehle chup hojayiye. Aur haan, plan kisi ko bhi sunane keliye nahi, balki karne keliye banaya hai..

Raj ( sarcastically ): Acha, aur hame laga plan suna bhi sakthe hai. Miss Nandini Dixit, if you've forgotten, let me remind you, the psycho Khanna needs you which means we wouldn't let you to step in this plot..

Nandini: Well, let me remind you too Mr. Raj Malhotra, Nandini Dixit never hides from any damn person because I know to fight and will do so, forever.

Raj made a bad face and others sighed.

Raj: Kisne seekha isse ithna attitude..??

Viren ( grinned ): Beti meri hai, khoon bhi mera hai par seekhna hai tho sab kuch tumse hi seekha hai..

Viren shot a glare at Raj and he smiled sheepishly in return..

Manik: Haa Dad, you really depraved her..

Nandini: What the..what do you mean by depraved, Manik Malhotra..??

Manik: Pretty much, corrupted or immoral..

Nandini: Wow, I really didn't know the meaning of that word, Thank You..

Manik ( showed his teeth ): You're welcome..

Nandini ( glared ): Malhotra ka mathlab hi hai, annoying and stupid..You know what, just spend your lives with each other, don't expect me to be with you both..

Raj/Manik: What the hell..!!

Nandini: Yeah, go to hell..

Raj and Manik made puppy faces which didn't work at all, how come someone tell Nandini Dixit is depraved..!!

Viren ( grinned ): Achi baath hai, meri beti mere paas hi rahegi..

Akshara ( angrily ): Ab bas karo sab, princess, ab tho bolo, kya karne wale ho tum sab..ye math sochna ki tum logon ko kuch bhi karne denge hum..

Nandini ( grinned ): Arey Akshu Ma, sab kuch easy hai..ye sab na, Chiraag Khanna ke personal services ke list hai, like, telephone calls, number of guards, their working timings, his workers list and yeah, his close friends too..

Ravi ( shocked ): Ye sab tum log kaha se doonde ke nikala, that too within a day..

Rohit: Like hell, it's not even a day..phir..??

Abhi: Well, we already had 4 evil twins but we got 2 more, so 6 computers were working from morning to now, they had 4 hours and it was enough..

Swayam: May we know who are the rest 2..??

Ritesh: Not so doubtful, but along with Di, Sid Bhai, Ri Bhai and me, we got Mukti Di and Cabir Bhai too..

Lalith ( nodded ): I've expected the same..

Akash ( smirked ): Wah bacho..tum log tho mere naam ko roshan kar diya..hats off to you..

Soha ( disbelievingly ): Aapka second name Dhawan nahi balki Shakespeare hona chahiye tha..

Akash ( proudly ): I know..

And the rest chuckled at him..

Viren: But, doll. What are you gonna do with it..??

Raj: Love, on a serious note, we wouldn't let you do something dangerous, so don't even think about it..

Nandini looked at them to see their concerned yet scared eyes. She left Manik's arm and moved to her Papas and sat between Viren and Raj and held both of their arms..

Nandini: I know Papas, aap sab mujhe lekar bohath pareshan hai. But, trust me, I don't want this to go on anymore. Pichle 7 saal se aap sab ke dil mein kahi na kahi ek darr tha, ki kahi wo wapas na aa jaye, isiliye you had even kept more number of guards for me, some were even hidden from my sight which I got to know from your P.A.s. Par, don't you think we need to stop worrying. Kab thak chalega ye sab papas. Dad, aap apne aapko blame karke kab thak jeeyega..I don't want to see it happening. Isiliye, I wanna fight him, to let him know that he never deserved my Mom and he never gonna win in this fight.

They smiled at her faintly..She looked at Raj and kept her head on his shoulder..

Nandini: Pops, you taught me to fight against evil and now, you shouldn't stop when I'm doing it. I want myself to be my family's strength, not weakness..

Raj smiled and kissed her forehead. She turned to Viren and cupped his cheeks..

Nandini: Dad, Mom always knew what was right and what was wrong. You said, she was always guilty about being friends with Chiraag and if I sit simply then you're making her more guilty because she always wanted me to be an independent woman who knows how to fight, you don't want Mom to be sad, haina Paapu..??

Viren smiled widely and kissed her knuckles and caressed her hair..

Viren: Yes, your Mom hated it. And my daughter, is not at all a coward..

Nandini ( grinned ): Tho, I can take a part in it..right..??

Ranvir: Not, until you promise to take care of yourself..

Nandini ( smiled ): I promise. Waise bhi M5 hain na, even Fab 5 are with us. I know, I'll be safe and so you can..

She looked at M5 who smiled at her and at Manik who was also sitting with his group and this not only him but also his friends smiled at her. Surprisingly, Alya was also concerned for her, Nandini could find it from her eyes, there was no faking and she genuinely didn't deny in helping her out..

Akash: Fine, so what's the plan..??

Abhimanyu ( smirked ): That's for us to execute, Papa..You guys just need to chill and watch Chiraag Khanna getting doomed..

The youngsters smirked back at him while the elders sighed in defeat..

In Manik's Bedroom

Manik was trying to wear his tie when his brain got lost in the thoughts. What if, his love gets hurt, not that he doesn't trust himself but he just can't trust destiny, it was also cruel with him !!

From nowhere, he felt her tiny hands wrapped around his chest and he sighed in content..

Manik: Kya bath hai Miss Dixit, aaj bohath pyar aa raha hai mujhpe..

She made him turn and took the tie in her hand and made him wear it, while he took her on his feet.

Nandini: You ain't gonna lose me, Mr. Malhotra..

He wasn't surprised, he knew none could understand him as much as she does..

Manik ( sighed ): I trust you and your potential but not my destiny, Love. I don't want to go with your plan..You should know it..

Nandini ( grinned ): Well, I know that too..

Manik sighed and kept his forehead on her's and she snaked her arms around his neck..

Nandini: Mani, I don't know about my destiny but I know one thing, I have my Mom in me and she wants me to be happy. She knows, my happiness lies in you, in my family so she wouldn't wish to take me away from you..

He smiled and kissed her forehead making her smile..

Manik: Fine, but, I'll be around you 24 hrs, you won't go with that " someone will see " stuff..

Nandini ( giggled ): FYI, Mr. Malhotra. We're officially a couple of Paris, the whole world knows that Nanz is taken and Paris knows the guy too, which is you, Manik Malhotra..

Manik bit his lips and grinned..

Manik: Sorry, that just slipped out of my mind..

She simply smiled and hugged him and he wrapped his arms around her..

Nandini: Be with me, Mani and we are going to erase him from our lives, too..

Manik: Always, with you..

He took her lips in his still with her being in his arms, for a short kiss..

Manik: I love you, Love..

Nandini: I love you, Mani..

And they broke apart and left for their destination, Dreamland..
