After standing on the door, for like ages, Fab4 decided to break the silence.
Fab4 just rushed towards the bed and pounced on Manik like kittens.
They where hitting each other, giggling hard and most importantly, all of them were happy.
Nandini who was standing by the wardrobe, had tears in her eyes.
Nandini ( pov ) : thank you ayyappa. ...thank you so much. ..I wish ki. ...Fab5 ki friendship hamesha aisi hi rahe. ....and I hope. ...ki Mukti bhi Manik ko maaf kar de! !!!
Cabir gets on top of Manik and punches him hard.
Manik ( cries out with pain ): oucch. ....kya kar raha hai tu? ?????
Cabir holding Maniks collar.
Cabir ( angrily ) : saale. ....kaha tha tu? ????.....naa koi phone. ....naa koi message? ?????
Dhruv : meri taraf se bhi ek aur punch maar isse Cabir! !!!
Manik : buddy. ..tu bhi! !!!
Dhruv : maat bol tu mujhe aapna buddy! !!.....agar hum sab ki itni hi fikar thi. ...toh chhod ke kyon gaya? ????
Aliya : exactly. ....Manik. ..that was really rude of you. ...I mean. ..you just disappeared for 3 long years! !!!
Cabir finally moved away from Manik, letting him breath a little.
Manik just holds his ears and said " sorry. ...I am very very. ...sorry. ...please mujhe maaf kar doo! !!!....main stupid tha. ....ek number ka idiot tha. ....but I am sorry. ....dil se ...."
Cabir again punched Manik, but this time a little harder.
Manik : oucch. ....ab yeh kis liye tha? ???
Cabir : saale. ...dost ko sorry bolta hai! !!!
Saying this he hugged Manik.
Everyone complained and pulled Maniks leg. But Mukti was silent and this Manik noticed.
Manik ( with a smile ) : Mukti. ...tujhe kuch nehin bolna? ????
Mukti just went and hugged Manik.
Unable to control her feelings Mukti burst out with tears and started sobbing.
Though Nandini never expressed it, but Mukti knew, it was because of her, that Manik left.
For 3 years, Mukti had been blaming and cursing herself. And finally today, she let it out.
Manik ( concerned ) : oye! !!!!....pagal. ...itna kyon. ....emotional ho rahi hai? ????
Cabir ( playfully ) : rehne de Manik. ....isse roone de! !!!
Manik ( confused ) : kya bol raha hai tu! !!!!.....ek toh becchari itna roo rahi hai. ...aur tu hai ki. ..
Before Manik could complete,Cabir said "pehli baar..... yeh life mein ladkiyon ki tarha roo rahi hai. ...aur tu. ...usse rok raha hai. ...very bad Manik! !!!
Breaking the hug, Mukti picked up a pillow and launched at Cabir, which he successfully dodged.
Mukti : tujhe toh main abhi dikhati hu! !!!
Saying this she started hitting Cabir.
Cabir ( yelling ): lady bheem phir se jaag gayi. ....issliye bol raha tha. ...roone de isse! !!!!
Mukti : Cabir ke bacche! !!!
Cabir ( pleading ) : yaar. ...tu aise hi maregi. ....toh mere bacche kabhie nehin honge! !!!
Listening to this, all of them started laughing.

After saying goodnight to Fab4, Nandini closed the door.
While crossing the living room, Nandini's mind was filled with various thoughtsand build up emotions.
Nandini ( pov ) : aaj kitne dinno ke baad Fab4 ke face pein yeh smile dekha. ...thank you once again ayyappa. ....thank you so much. ...ab Manik wapas aa gaya hai! !!!
After seeing Maniks face, Nandini wanted to forgive all his mistakes. But the pain caused by his impulsive behaviour and decision, did not let her forget the past.
On entering the bedroom, Nandini finds Manik sleeping peacefully.
There was an awkwardness between them.
Nandini wanted to scold him, punish him and complain him, about each and every tear, which she had sheded for him.
But after seeing her Monster's innocent face, Nandini resisted from her impulse. With tears in her eyes, she took a pillow and went out of the room.

12 '0clock in the night.
Manik woke up ,as he was feeling thirsty.
Manik ( pov ) : yeh. ...Nandini kaha hai? ????? (but immediately scolded himself )....stop it. ...uss ke life mein interfare karna baand kar! !!!
While coming back to his room, after filling his bottle, Manik found that the lights of his study room where on.
Manik, instinctively moved towards the study room.
He was about to enter, when Manik heard, Nandini talking to someone on the phone, with her back towards him.
Nandini ( scolding ) : kitni baar kaha tha ki thanda pani maat peena. ...lekin meri sunnta kaun hai! !!!......tum acchi tarike se jante ho naa baby. ....tumhe thoda sa bhi fever hota hai toh main kitni pareshaan ho jati hu. ...phir kyon karte ho aisa? ????....ek baar meri baat sunnlete. ....accha chhod. ...bahut raat ho gayi hai. ...goodnight baby. ...love you. ...
Fuming with anger, Manik left the place.
Entering the bedroom, Manik banged the door behind him.
Manik sat on the bed, covering his face, with his palm.
Manik ( pov ) : kyon hai woh yaha pein? ????.....gayi kyon nehin? ????.....akhir chahti kya hai? ???....mere hi ghar mein. ...meri hi biwi hoke. ...mera hi samne kisi aur ko I love you bol rahi hai! !!!!....kyon kar rahi hai aisa mere saath? ???....usski hi khushi ka liye main 3 saal uss se dur raha. ...phir woh meri taklif kyon badha rahi hai? ????
Unable to control his anger and frustration, Manik finally let his tears, flow down his cheeks.
