Mannat Mansion @ 9.30 A.M

Manik : (cupping her cheeks) I am sorry mom. Really sorry. For hurting you frim past 7 years. You have to go through a lot, just because of me. And you just gor hatred in return. Main hi aapka sabse bada gunegar ban gaya. Please mujhe maaf kardo mom. (i am your culprit. Please forgive me mom)

Nyonika : (nodding her head in no) nahi beta. It wasn't your fault. Aap woh believe kiya jo aapne dekha tha. I was the one to be blamed. I should have told you everything atleast. But i was afraid. What if he would have harm you. You are my world. Agar tumhe kuch hogaya toh? I can't even imagine that. I was selfish when it comes to you. And that only lead us here. You weren't at fault Manu.

She said everything in her mind.

Manik : Maa, maine galat kiya hai. (i have made a mistake) it is just your big heart that you are blaming yourself. So jo bhi zakhm mein aapko diya tha uske badle aapki zindgi main saari khushi bharna chahta hoon main. ( so i want to make your life fill with happiness to remove whatever hurt i have inflicted on you) you have suffered a lot Mom. Ab aur nahi. I will never hurt you anymore. And won't let anyone to hurt you too.

He said while wiping her eyes, with determination in his eyes. This only made Nyonika's eyes fill with happy tears. While Raj has a proud look at his face. He couldn't muster up the courage to ask forgiveness till now. But his son did it.

Nyonika : you are with me right. Then i don't need anything else. You are my happiness Manu. Please be with me. And i will be the happiest person in the whole world.

She said smiling through her tears. While others too had tears in their eyes. Manik just took her in another tight hug with a smile. His was happy to get back his Mom. But Nyonika's selfless nature was making him more guilty. But he know it is the time to act not blaming himself.

Nandini : Mujhe lagta hai ab mooh meeta karna chahiye. Kyun Nyoma?
( i think it is the time to eat sweets)

Nyonika gave her a bright smile at it and in an instant Navya brought her hand made Rasgulla.

Navya : so Nyoma and rakshas ji

And she got a glare from Manik.

Navya : i mean Manik, have it. Time to taste sweet. Saari kadvahat yaadon ko bhool jao aur khavo Navya's handmade rasgulla.

She said dramatically making M6 and others giggle. Even though Manik glare at her, he make Nyonika eat rasgulla even Nyonika too make Manik eat in return she got a kiss on her cheek from Manik.

Everyone was smiling at the reunion of mom-son duo. but there was someone who was looking at her with wide eyes.

Guess who?

Mr.Cabir Dhawan.

He blinked his eyes 2, 3 times thinking it was some dream. His madhubala in modern avatar. It must be a dream right? But then he wasn't sleeping na. He came downstairs to eat breakfast for god sake. Then is she Navya's twin ir what?

So he thought to confirm it.

Cabir : (wispering) Dhruv... Kya tum bhi wahi dekh raha hoon jo main dekh raha hoon? (did you saw the same thing what i am seeing)

He asked Dhruv only to recieve a confused look from here.

Dhruv : and mujhe kya pata hai ki tum kya dekh raha hoon? (and how how would i know ki what are you seeing?)

Cabir : is this a dream?

Dhruv : what?

Cabir : i think it is a dream.

Dhruv : are you out of your mind Cabir?. How could it be a dream.

Cabir : arey yeh dream nahi hai toh hiw could Navya look modern?

Dhruv : it is not a dream idiot and yeah he is wearing modern dress, that is why she is looking modern.

Cabir : i know if someone wear modern dress that person will look modern. But how could Navya wear it. She only wear her 90's dress. And agar yeh dream nahi hai toh mera doubt sahi hai.

He said with a thoghtful face making Dhruv irritated.

Ise hand main hi chot laga tha na? Kahi sar mein bhi lag gaya kya ek?

Dhruv : ab tumhara doubt kya hai.

Cabir : Is She Navya's Twin.

He said with a serious face. But it turned into confused when they heared someone laughing. He looked at side and saw M6 boys laughing. He looked at them confused.

Maddy : ohooo Cabir. Seriously? Navya's twin?

Navya : mera twin?

Maddy : haa he was saying ki you are not Navya but twin.

He said making others too laugh.

Cabir : matlab yeh sach main Navya hai? (means she is really Navya)

He asked still confused.

Abhimanyu : haa Cabir she is Navya only.

Cabir : but she...

Navya : (guilty) hmm Cabir, woh i came in that look so that no one recognise me.

Mukthi : matlab? (means?)

Navya : woh we wanted to hide our identity. So thats why.

She said and her guilt only increased when she saw hurt in Cabir's eyes.

Cabir didn't said anything after that he just nodded his head but didn't even looked at her. It really made her heart sink.

Soha : i think ab hamein breakfast karna chahiye.

Everyone nodded and moved to the breakfast table. Seeing dishes everyone were amazed.

Upma

Aloo paratha

Chole batture

Paneer butter masala

Pancakes

Vegetable Sandwich

Grilled sandwich

Banana Caramal Cream Dessert

But for the first time food didn't lift Cabir's mood up. He was hurt, that Navya hided her identity from him. He never thought Navya like it.

No no he don't have any problem in she wearing modern dress. It is just that he thought he don't know anything about Navya. But they befriend with each other for knowing each othe only na. Then?

But at the end he was hurt.

Navya too noticed it. She too was sad. She knew this moment will happen. And she was sure that she will console him. But seeing him hurt she felt like she had did a crime. Tears started clouding her eyes.

She was standing in the same place drowing in th pool of guilt when she felt someone side hugging her she looked at her side and saw Aryaman who had an encouraging smile on his face.

Aryaman : why my chudail look upset?

Navya : (with a sad smile) nothing

Aryaman : Navya

He called her stearnly seeing her trying to hide her hurt. Heaing him Navya just looked at him with sad eyes.

Aryaman : hey don't be sad. He is hurt i know. But mujhe yeh bhi pata hai ki he likes may be loves my Navi. So he can't stay angry for more time. You just make him understand your situation.

Navya : i wanted to tell him everything Aru. But i never thought everything will be end like this.

Navya said her head hung down.

Aryaman : Navya, i understand. But evertthing will not happened just like we think right?.

Navya : yeah i know. But i hurt him Aru. He must be feeling like i betrayed him.

Aryaman : is mein betrayal kahan se aagaya? It is a huge word girl. Yeah you hide your identity. But you never thought to cheat him by any means right?

He asked and Navya nodded her head in a yes.

Aryaman : yeah, you have to be transperent in a relationship. Butyou never thought na you will develop feelings for him. So, it is not betrayal or anything. So wipe out these un necessary thoughts and think how to make your Majnu understand your point of view.

He said making her smile.

Navya : I hope he will understand me.

Aryaman : ofcourse he will Navi. Just tell him, how sorry you are for hiding your identity. Phir dekhna sab kuch pehla jaisa hoga. (then everything will be alright)

Navya : i really hope so.

Aryaman : ohk then now wipe these idiotic tears. It doesn't suit you meri jaan.

He said dramatically while wipibg her tears, making her smile. He dragged her to the dining table and make her sit.

Even though Cabir couldn't hear their conversation he saw Aryaman wiping her tears. But for the first time after realising his feeling towards her he didn't feel jealous on Aryaman. Instead he was thankful to him that he was there with Navya when he couldn't.

He was looking at Navya till now, but he looked at other side when he saw Navya turning to him.

Everyone sat in the dining table. M6 girls serve everyone. This time it was Mukthi who volunteered to feed Cabir much to Maddy's relief.

Alia : bhai, yeh paneer butter masala aap ne banaya tha kya?

Alis asked realising the taste. In return Harshad just nodded his head in a yes. Fab4 looked at him surprised. Especially Manik and Dhruv.

Nyonika : it is really tasty Harshad.

She said smilingly while Raj adores her smiling face. How much he missed this. Having food with her.

Harshad : thanks Nyoma.

Mukthi : hmm yeh kya hai?

She asked confusedly looking at upma.

Kaira : it is upma. South Indian food. Nandu ne banaya. Just taste it once.

Kaira said serving upma to Mukthi. Mukthi ate it and said.

Mukthi : it is too good. Maine pehli baar south indian food try kiya hai.

Dhruv : main bhi.

Kaira : woh hona hi tha. She is expert in making South Indian dishes. And yeah agar pasanth aaya toh bechichak isse poochlo. She will make it for you.

Kaira said Praising Nandini while side hugging her.

Manik looked at Nandini and smiled at her which she returned. He told her upma is good with action making her smile looking at her plate.

Aryaman : hmmm Alia, woh aloo paratha maine banaya tha. Woh bhi taste karo na.

He said extra sweetly making her 3 bestfriends, that is Manik, Dhruv and Cabir, and possessive brother, that is Harshad to look at him raising their eyebrow. This sparks a tinge of jealousy in Dhruv's mind.

While Alia looked at him startled.

Aryaman : (sensing gazes) aisa look kya de raha hain ? Main bas bata raha tha. It is tasty.

He said shrugging his shoulder and digged into his food.

Harshad : (out of the blue) Alia, kal raksha bandhan hai na.

Alia nodded being confused.

Harshad : ek rakhi extra khareed lena.

Alia : kyun?

Harshad : Alia, meet Aryaman your newly found brother.

Harshad said making Aryaman wide his eyes.

Aryaman : nooooo.

Harshad : yes. Kal se, kal se kyun? Abhi isi wakth se woh teri behan hai. Aur tum uske bade bhai. (yes, from tomorrow... No no from this moment she is your sister. And you her big brother)

Kaira : i liked it Harshad.

Aryaman : shut up Ms. Philophobia. Tu khud flirt nahi kartha. Aur mujhe bhi karne nahi deta.

He said glaring at while Kaira throw a apple at him from the fruit basket. Which he catched.

Aryaman : mujhe uski bhai nahi banna. Waise hi mujhe 6 bahan hai. Aur nahi chahiye.

Maddy: 6 kaise?

Aryaman : arey Soha,Nandu, Navi, kayu, Ami and Mukthi.

He said casually, but earing her name in the list Mukthi looked at him surprised. Not just Mukthi but everyone was surprised.

Aryaman : ab is list mein Alia ko bhi mat add karo yaar.

He said pouting. While Alia looked at here and there embarressingly.

Harshad : you have to Aru. You have no other choice. So be her big brother and protect her from every odd.

Aryaman looked at Alia sensing her discomfort he finally nodded his head still pouting.

Amaira : koi nahi Aru. We will find out your Laila soon.

Amaira said patting Aryaman's arm.

Aryaman : theek hai. So Alia be ready to be my sister. And Mukthi you too.

Manik : I think you guys know us before but we don't know anyone except Nandini and Navya. So don't you think ek introduction hona chahiye.

Maddy : why not. So i will start then. Hi I am Madhyam Singhania.

Aryaman : And i am the handsome, dashing Aryaman Khurana.

He said praising himself. M6 rolled their eyes hearing this while Fab5 liked his happy go lucky charactor.

Abhimanyu : i am Abhimanyu Moorthy. Nandini's cousin brother.

He introduced himself to everyone and said the last part looking at Manik as if warning him. Manik too looked at him and give him a small smile.

Manik was confused did he know about his like towards Nandini?

He looked at Nandini and saw her glaring at Abhimanyu while he was smirking. Then he saw Nandini wispering something to Abhimanyu making him pout and smile sweetly at Manik. It make Manik more confusing.

But what must be she talk?

(Main batati hoon... Par kisi aur se mat batana... It is a secret between them. Ohk)

So

Nandini : (wispering to Abhimanyu) Abhi don't use that tone. Yaad rakhna Mukthi is like Manik's sister. Agar use patana hai toh tumhe Manik ka help ki zaroorath pad sakthe hai.

Yeah this is what Nandini said to Abhimanyu. Well it is right too. So Abhimanyu choose the better option. Manik ko uska sweet sa smile de diya.

Kaira : i am Kaira Kapoor.

She introduced her self breaking Manik's trace.

Soha : i am Soha Khurana.

Aryaman : and my sister.

Maddy : wahi uska ek kami hai. Iske behan jo ban gayi.

He said making a pity face Soha too supported him making a sad face.

And others laugh once again in Aryaman's expence.

(Poor mera Aru *pout*)

Zubin : i am Zubin.

Raj : Zubin? So you are the Managing Director of Amets group.

Zubin: yes.

Raj : ohh that's great.

Raj said smilibg professionally which reciprocated by Zubin.

Amaira : and I am Amaira. Zubin sir's P.A

He said chirply.

Navya : you are our friend first Ami. Then your Zubin sir's PA.

She said in a sweet strict voice making Amaira smile.

Amaira : i know.

Fab5, Nyonika and Raj admired their friendship. They tease each other like hell. But at the same time they are ready to die for each other.

Soha : so ab introduction toh ho hi gaya. So friends.

She asked looking at Fab5 with excitement. Fab5 looked ar each other.

Soha : please don't say no

She said smiling sheepishly as she saw a confusion in their gazes.

Seeing her Fab5 smile at her. Then nodded their head making everyone smile.

Amaira : yayyyy.. So it is going to be fun. We got 5 more people in our team.

She said with a child like enthusiasm.

Nandini : toh kal raksha bandhan hai. And hamara naya naya friendship bhi hua hai. So kyun na ham kal hamare friendship ko ek block buster start de?

Maddy : you are right Navya. So what say guys?

Dhruv : kyun nahi.

Mukthi : haa waise bhi Alia have to tie rakhi to Aryaman right?

She said winking at them.

Navya : wahi toh. And Alia pehli baar rakhi baand ne wala hai. Kya gift chahiye abhi pooch lo.

Alia : nahi, aisa kuch special nahi chahiye.

Navya : arey tumhara Haq bantha hai. Pooch lo.

Aryaman : poocho Alia. Tumhari har khwaish yeh bhai poora kar loonga.

He said wiping his imaginary tears making every one laugh.

Alia : woh gift do woh aapko pasanth hai.

Aryaman : (widening his eyes) arey yeh mujhe aap kyun bula raha hai. Bada bhai hai iska matlab yeh nahi ki mujhe budha samajh lega.

Nandini : you can't blame her Aru. You look quiet old

She said as a matter of fact.

Aryaman : old hoga tera bhai.

Abhimanyu : hey... Beech mein mujhe mat lao. Nahi tog muh thod doonga.

Aryaman : arey tumhara behan se bolo na ki beech main mat bola karo.

Nandini : main boloongi. Tum kya karoongi.

Aryaman : don't instigate me Nandu baby. Nahi toh tumhare new teddy se bye bye boldo.

He said glaring at her.

Nandini : (smiling brightly) matlab you will gift me teddy tomorrow.

Aryaman : maine socha tha ki la doon. Par ab nahi.

Nandini : arey nahi nahi Aru. I will be a good girl and won't tease you. Please teddy laa do.

She said smiling sweetly at him blinking her eyes.

(Koi bhi use dekh liya hota toh they would have said.

Awwww she look so cute.😍😍)

Everyone smiled at her cuteness. Manik wasn't even blinking his eyes. The Nandini Moorthy he saw was always a matured girl. A fighter, Who can handle the "Monster Monkey Manik Malhotra" as she calls. A girl who respect every elders. A girl who always stand with the truth. But here, this Nandini is a sweet kid, who was coaxing her brother for a teddy bear.

Ab aur kitna sides hai is ladki main?

Manik wondered. She is really a complete package. A girl every men desire for. But this girl is only his now. His shining star. And mind you.

"Only his"

After more pleading Aryaman agreed to gift her a teddy Bear.

They finished their breakfast with some more teasing and leg pulling.

And it marked a beautiful start of friendahip too.

.
.

Living Room 10.30 A.M

After breakfast everyone were sitting in the living room. When Zubin's phone rang. He went to take the call. He came back after 5 minutes.

Zubin : it was from ACP, he said that they are going to present them in the court at 3 PM.

(yaar mujhr nahi pata ek hi din mein case ka hearing ho sakta hai ki nahi. Please pardon me if it is not right)

He said and there were a silence in the room for a minute which was broken by Zubin himself.

Zubin : Mr.Ahuja, our Advocate will be there. Our evidences are strong so there is no doubt they will be punished. So yeah we have to go there by 2 o clock.

Navya : Vikram bhai Naina ke paas gaya hai. We should inform him too.

Abhimaanyu : yeah.. I will call him.

He said and went to call Vikram.

Raj : yeah. It is already 10.30. I think we should leave home. We will go court directly.

Maddy : i think its not a good idea. Media must have known about the arrest till now. So they will be in Malhotra Industries and Mansion. So...

Soha : he is right Mr.Malhotra. It will be good if you guys stay here today.

Nyonika : mujhe bhi waise hi lagtha hai.

She said to no one particular. But Raj know that was for him. So he just nodded smiling at her. Which she didn't reciprocated at all.

Well she too is a Malhotra. Attitude toh banta hai.

Nandini : (wispering) hmmm Navya, did we forget anything?

Navya : huh?

Nandini : i think we forgot something. Par kya tha woh?

She asked confused Navya too started thinking. And Bingo. Their bulb lit up.

Both looked at each other then the clock and stand up at once startling everyone.

Nandini : Harshad it is 10.30 now.

Harshad : (confused) so?

Navya : idiot it is 10.30. Airport nahi jaana?

Harshad : ohh shit. I forgot. Sorry. Come fast. Hey, appointment letter.

Navya : i will get it.

She said and ran to her room nd come back with a cover and the three went out.

It happened all of a sudden that no one understand what did happened to them.
