In the Bungalow

Everyone were sitting with gloomy faces. It was the last day of their trip. They decided to leave tonight.

Rudr ( sighed ): It was so much of fun..

Karan ( looked at him ): For the first time in my life, I agree with you.

Cabir: I am gonna miss these days..

Mukti( pouted ): Me too..

Nandini ( confused ): Arey but why are you getting upset for it..We all are staying in Mumbai. So we can meet up whenever we get free..

Dhruv ( sadly ): That's the point Nandu..we don't get free in Mumbai..

Nandu ( sweetly smiled ): Kisne kaha aisa..Poore 24 hours koi bhi insaan kaam nahi kar sakthe na..Rishthey nibhane keliye har din milna zaroori nahi hai..Bas ek doosre ke barein sochna aur phone pe baath karna..yahi kaafi hai..Kyu Bhayyus..??

Asad ( kissed her head ): Of course princess..

While others smiled at her..She knew how to cheer them up..

After Lunch

" Knock " " Knock "

Manik opened his bedroom's door to find Nandini standing in front of him with a smile..He grinned and pulled her inside and locked the door and pinned her on the wall..

Nandu ( gasped ): Manik..what was that..?

Manik ( innocently ): Kya..mein tho bas darwaza bandh kar raha tha..You know, Mein sab kuch private mein karna chahtha hoon..

Nandu ( slapped his arm ): Hamesha one track mind hi hai..

Manik ( pouted ): Acha..tho tum kiss cheez keliye aayi ho..kahi kiss tho nahi..

Nandu ( disbelievingly ): Shut up Manik..mein romance karne keliye nahi aayi hoon..

Manik ( coolly ): Koi nahi..mein hoo na romance karne keliye..

Nandu ( slapped his cheeks lightly ): Sudhrega bhi nahi tum..

Manik ( smiled ): Nah..par agar tum chaho tho mein try karoonga..

Nandu ( smiled ): Mujhe tho ye Manik pasandh hai..

He smiled and kissed her forehead..

Nandu ( took something from her pocket ): Acha..mujhe kuch dena tha..

Manik ( grinned ): Tho dhe na..( he showed his cheeks to her which she pinched )

He made a bad face at her..She smiled and pecked his cheek making him smile and then she forwarded a small box to him..

Nandu ( smiled ): Kal hum tired the na..isiliye nahi de paayi..

Manik ( he took the box ): Ismein kya hai..

Nandu ( smiled ): Khudi dekh lo na..

He opened the box to see a ring . He took it in his hand. It had something written on it..

Manik ( smiled ): Strength..Hmm..its your gift..so it gotta have some specialty..

She touched the word strength which was written on the ring and pulled it upwards. That's when he noticed a small photo attached to the ring which was placed under the word STRENGTH..

Manik ( smiled ): Hey, its Mom's photo..How did you..

Nandini ( smiled ): I got it from Nyoni mumma..Today morning I went to the nearby studio and got it in this size..

He smiled at her..He gestured her to make him wear it which she gladly did..

Nandini ( curiously ): Hows it..?

Manik ( smiled ): Perfect..just like you..

She smiled widely at him..

Manik ( teased ): Waise..I have heard that girls don't like their guys to give more attention to their mothers..Haa vo teri Nyoni mumma hi hai..phir bhi tumhe koi problm nahi hai agar mein mom ko zyada importance doon..??

Nandu ( smiled ): Kyu..Wo maa hai na..ek insaan pyar ka mathlab sabse pehle apni maa se jaan payega..Maa pyar sikhathi hai..Doosron ki khayal kaise rakhna hai wo bhi maa se seekhthe hai..Jab hum rothe hai hamare sath rone keliye maa hi hai hamare paas..hamara 1st school day pe maa bas yahi kehte hai ' jaldhi aana batha ' , jab college jathe hai tab wo kehthe hai ki ' padai ke saath saath apna dhyan bhi rakhna chahiye ' . jab bethe ki shadi hojahe hai tho wo apni bahu ko beti banathi hai kyunki unhe patha hai ki unki bahi unke bete keliye important hai, usse khush karwathe hai..aur ma ki khushi bethe ki khushi mein hi hai..aur jab beti ki shadi hojathi hai tho apni andhar ki maa ke aansu chupake kehthe hai ki' mein bhi dulhan bani thi aur aaj tu ban rahi hai '..maa pyar hai manik...hamara strength hai aur jo ladka apni maa or behen se pyar karthe na wo apni beewi ko kabhi khushi ki kammi mehsoos karne nahi dega..Tho mein chahta hoon ki mera Manik ke paas hamesha uski strength rahe, jo uski maa hai..isilye mujhe tease karna bandh karo..

Manik couldn't feel more happier than this..Every girl gets hell worried thinking about her in- laws when she gets married, how will they behave with her..Will she get the same love that she is getting from her house..But the same thing happens with a guy too..His worry is about his family..He is ready to love his wife, but will she love him and his family equally..Will she bring peace to his world or not..Same happened with Manik too, before meeting Nandini..And today, he knew that his worries are unnecessary..cause if she is there then his family is filled with Love and Peace.. He vowed today that no matter what, he will do anything to make her happy, forever..

Manik: You know, I am so lucky to have you in my life.

She smiled and hugged him..

Nandini ( still in his arms ): You could just say, we are lucky to be with each other..

He smiled and kissed her hair..

At night

Everybody were waiting for the girls to come downstairs as it was nearly time for their jet to arrive..

They turned their heads to the stair case when they heard some giggling sound..It was MukNi who were talking some or the other thing and giggling time to time..Others smiled seeing their bonding..

Mukti's Attire

Nandini's Attire

Nandini went towards her Bhayyus and soon she was caged between Sid and Shivaay. It was their routine to keep her in between them whenever she is around.

Raj: Tho chalein bacho..

Rohit: Our private jet has already reached the area..

Nandini: Umm..Pops..

Raj ( smiled ): Haa princess..

Nandini ( smiled ): Before going, I need to give something..

Rohit ( confused ): Give..? What is it princess..?

Nandini looked at her Bhayyus who understood her gesture and smiled at her..She smiled back and went towards Harsh..

Nandini ( gave a packet ): This is for you..

Harsh ( confused ): What is it beta..?

Nandini ( smiled ): Aap khudi dekhiye na..

He smiled and opened it to see a pair of slippers..

Harsh ( smiled widely ): Beautiful..how do you know I like them..

Nandini ( smiled ): You were telling me and Mukti that you like everything traditional..Every kind of traditional dresses fascinate you, so I thought to gift you this..

Harsh: Par beta..why gifts..We are a family..so is it necessary to give something when we part ways..

Nandini ( smiled ): Nahi Chote Daadu..Appa kehthe hai ki jab hum kisiko kuch dethe hai tho iska mathlab ye hai ki wo hamareliye bohat important hai aur hum chahenge ki hum bhi unkeliye important bane, isiliye jo kuch bhi hum unhe dethe hai wo cheez hamara yaad dilathe rahenge..Mujhe patha hai aap mujhe kabhi bhi bhool nahi sakthe par har din mere yaad nahi aayega na isiliye ye thofa kaam aayega..

Harsh's smile turned more huge..he kissed her forehead with love..While others could jsut admire her, the way she thinks..everything is pure.

Harsh( smiled ): Thank you..

She just smiled and moved towards Malhotra men..

Nandini ( smiled ): Pops and chachus..Ye aapkeliye..

She gave 1 box to each of the 3 men..They opened to see watches..

Nandini: Its the same..Black is for Pops..silver is for Rishi chachu and blue is for Rohit chachu..Wo kya hai na..Aap theenon mere liye Appa jaise hai tho socha ek hi jaise gift doon..

They smiled at her and kissed her forehead and whispered " Thank you "

She moved towards the ladies and gave them a pair of necklaces..They smiled at her..

Nandini ( cutely ): Nyoni mumma..uss necklace ki khoobsurathi nahi hai par ye bhi tho beautiful hai..

Nyonika ( lightly slapped her cheeks ): Uss necklace ko chod dho..mujhe usse koi lena dena nahi..aur wese bhi wo future bhi hai..

Nyonika winked at her while nandini didn't understand anything..Manik got tensed, he pleaded to his mom through eyes for which she just chuckled along with Arpita and Anjali, even they got to know about it..

Nandini ( confused ): Mathlab kya hai Nyoni mumma..?

Arpita ( smiled ): Kuch nahi beta..tu nahi samjegi..

She just nodded and went towards the younger clan..

Nandu ( smiled ): Muku, ye tereliye..

Mukti opened the box and got shocked..

Nandu ( smiled ): You wanted it right..

Mukti ( shocked): How did you know..

Nandu ( smiled ): I knew it by seeing the way you were looking at it dreamily..

Mukti ( hugged her tightly ): I love you yar..Thank you soo much..

Nandini ( smiled ): Love you too..

Cabir ( curious ): Aisa bhi kya hai Muku ussmein..?

Mukti ( smiled ): One sec Bhai..nandu..tu ye batha..tujhe kaise mili yeh..I mean..They had only one piece which that girl took it already..then how..

Nandu ( smiled ): Cause its mine..I had it with me..You know I am also a fan..

Mukti ( surprised ): What..aur tu ye mujhe de rahi hai..no no..

Nandu ( glared ): Shut up yar..mein ye tujhe de rahi hoon mathlab tujhe ye rakhna hai apne paas..aur han..don't worry about me..I have one more..but the difference is it was a couple pic..

Dhruv ( annoyed ): Koi bathayega kya hai ismein..

Mukti hugged Nandini again and then showed it to others..they looked at it wit open mouthed..

It was a coffee mug which had Tiger Shroff's image printed on it..

Manik ( shocked ): A coffee mug..Muku..you badly wanted a coffee mug..

Mukti ( irritated ): Offo Bhai..its not just a mug..Its a mug with Tiger Shroff's pic..God I so love him..He is so handsome..right Nandu..?

The boys looked at her in disbelief..

Nandu ( smiled ): Of course he is..I love his dance moves..

Manik looked at her with red eyes which she failed to notice..Nandini moved towards Cabir and gave a box to him..

Nandini: I mostly see you in goggles whenever we got out, so thought of gifting it..

Cabir ( smiled widely ): Goggles are my weakness..thank you so much behena..

Nandini ( smiled ): You are welcome..

She moved to Dhruv and gave a box which he opened..

Nandini: These are some books which we get in London about Dance moves.. You are a dancer so I thought you would find it appropriate..

Dhruv ( happily ): God Nandu..you don't know how much I needed it..Thank you so much yar..

Nandini ( smiled ): Welcome..

She moved towards Manik who was looking at her with a huge smile on his face..She gave a box to him too..He took it from her and opened it..

Nandini ( awkwardly ): Umm, you like caps so I thought of gifting it..

Manik smiled at her with a naughty look for which she glared at him..

Manik ( smiled ): Nice choice..

She just smirked at him..

Nandu ( turned to Raj ): Pops..ab chalein..

Raj ( smiled ): oh yes..

They left the bungalow in bus and reached the private place where the jet was parked and got in it.

Soon after 2 and a half hours they reached Mumbai and they decided to drop Nandini first..They stopped their bus in front of MishNa Mansion. Nandini hugged everyone and got out of the bus.

Shivay: Nanni..jaakar soja na..

Asad: Haa..aur koi kaam math karna..bohat tired hogi tum..

Om: Aur haa kal jaise ut jaye hume phone karna..

Rudr: Aur kal khana bhi teek se khana, aaj bohat kam khayi thi..

Karan: Haan, kal kaam keliye late jaana..papa hi tho hai na head tho no problem..

Rithvik: Aur haan, ab jaake math nahana..you will catch cold..

Viren: Aur kal jo bhi khana khayegi na wo bohath hi soft types hona chahiye..

Sid: Ek kaam kar, kal mein drop karoonga tujhe, agar tu phone pe baath kare na tho tu jhoot bhi bol sakthi hai..ham kal tere saath rahenge tho tu apna khayal rakhegi..

Nandu ( sighed): Aur kuch sarkar...

Asad ( hit her head ): Nahi sahiba..

Nandini ( giggled ): Tho mein jaoon..

" Yup "

She smiled and kissed each of their cheeks and opened her house gate by password..She turned to see Manik looking at her with a smile..He didn't need to tell her, he gestured it through his eyes to take care for which she nodded in Yes with a sweet smile on her face..

She opened the Mansion's door by using her spare key and got inside and closed the door not before waving at others..Soon the bus went out of her sight..
