Whom should we believe, heart or mind..??

People say that, one should always listen to their heart. Because, heart speaks truth while mind can cause trouble.

Heart will always want what's good for it's owner. It was craves for Love and attention from that person who's supposed to be the soul mate if it's owner.

While mind, can distract you. It can make you fall for the wrong person. It can bring trouble in your life.

Which is why, it's said that, when you're confused, touch your heart and ask to it because, it will lead you to happiness..

Once, Manik Malhotra has done the mistake of listening to his mind while choosing Alya thinking she was the love of his life. But now, he's falling for the right and he has to accept that his heart and mind is again in a fight but this time, his heart is the one who found the girl, which is his own wife, Nandini Manik Malhotra..

In Malhotra Mansion

In the Kitchen

Cooking is a kind of hobby for Nandini, it makes her much more lively. But it also gives her a peace of mind, along with Yoga.

And so, she's here in the kitchen, baking, so that she could delete the incident which happened in the Mall from her brain.

Nandini ( murmured ): Ab ithna kyu soch rahi hoon mein. Wo granny ko laga hum dhono ki shadi asli hai, ab usmein unki kya galathi hai. Par, meri bhi galathi tho nahi, kyunki mene kuch kiya hi nahi. Wo tho bas, Grumpy Coffee aaj kuch zyada hi grumpy tha, isiliye bina sochke kuch bhi kar dethe hai jo aaj mere saath bhi kiya. Bechare ko coffee peene nahi dethi na mein, shayad isiliye dimaag ka screw nikal gaya hoga..

While, she was blabbering to herself, Manik entered inside to get some water, because he was coming from GYM. Obviously, he was frustrated, so he ought to vent it through work out.

On entering, he inhaled the aroma of cake, dessert, something used to be his favorite. He opened his eyes, which were closed when he was inhaling it, only to see Nandini blabbering which wasn't audible to him, but she was also garnishing the cake with chocolate syrup..

Something forced him to stare at her, the way she blabbers without a full stop, how much she gets irritated with her hair strands whenever they disturb her from doing her work and her pouts, let it be of anger or happiness. He didn't know why, but he felt, he was seeing his present and future in her. He was feeling some kind of happiness, some kind of relief when he sees her..

Manik ( thought ): What are you doing Manik..?? You're falling in another trap. Don't forget what that bit** Alya did to you. She broke your heart and one day, even Nandini will do it so don't fall for another woman. Every women are same..

He was about to move out when he heard Nandini's mobile ringing. But, the ringtone was enough to boil his blood..

" Honey bee calling, honey bee calling.." they both looked at the mobile with different expressions on their faces. Manik, looked at it with anger spitting eyes while Nandini looked at it with irritation written all over her face.

She looked at her hands which were covered with chocolates, while honey bee didn't stop calling, giving a murderous look to her phone, she answered the call while pressing on the " ANSWER " option with her one finger and kept it on speaker.

Nandini: Hello..

Aadit ( curtly ): What took you so long to answer my call, Nandini..??

She was quiet surprised with his tone. He, was always sweet, or extra sweet with her but what happened to him , now..

Manik ( thought ): What the hell...?? How could he talk to her in that tone..??

Nandini: Um..I was busy, but what's the matter..??

Aadit: Matter..?? So, you don't wanna answer to my question..??

Nandini ( irritated ): Aadit, could you stop being rude with me. We aren't in hospital to be Dean's son and a casual Doctor. If I didn't pick your call then obviously I was busy, and if it was something regarding with hospital, then, am sorry, but I didn't get any calls from them..

Aadit controlled himself after getting such a rigid reply from her. Well, she was also used to be sweet with him, in fact everyone, she doesn't show her lively character in front of any strangers..

Aadit ( calmly ): Nandini, I'm sorry. But, I didn't get your reply so I thought I didn't matter to you, anymore..??

Manik clenched his fist in anger. While, Nandini palmed her face and thought..

Nandini: Phirse shuru hogaya. Mathlab, kab aayegi iski zindagi mein koi ladki bhagwan ji, mujhe tho chutkara milthi..

Nandini: Um, its fine..Why did you call me..??

Aadit ( sweetly ): Um, will you be free..tomorrow..??

Nandini ( frowned ): Um, mere zyada appointments nahi but I'm not sure about it, if I get walk-in patients then..Par, poocha kyu..

Aadit ( blushed ): Um, I thought, we could go for a...coffee..

She made a EU face after hearing " coffee ", she hates it like coffee is her sauthan. While on the other side, Manik had enough..

Manik ( murmured ): Meri hi beewi ke saath jaanna hai usko date pe..

Nandini ( nervously ): Um, Aadit, I don't drink coffee phir mein kaise...

But before she could continue, she gasped when she felt two arms encircling around her waist. She was about to shout when she heard her dear GRUMPY COFFEE's voice..

Manik: Baby, where were you..kabse doond raha tha mein..

Nandini widened her eyes and tilted her head to the left to see Manik's raging eyes, she looked confused instead of getting scared. Well, if it was someone else, they obviously would have got scared with those red eyes..

While, with Aadit, on hearing Manik's voice, Aadit's volcano erupted..

Aadit ( maintained his calmness ): Who the hell was it, Nandini..??

Nandini's attention turned towards the mobile. Holy buckets of PaNi..!! They have a viewer..er..a hearer, maybe..

Nandini ( stammered ): Uh..wo..koi..koi..bhi..tho nahi..haan..

Nandini ( whispered to Manik ): What the hell is wrong with you..?? Aadit hai phoen pe..Aur tum mujhe aise pakda hi kyun..?? Tumhara dimaag kharab hogaya hai kya Grumpy Coffee..?? Ab, chup kyu ho..nahi tum chup hi raho..Aadit ke phone cut karne dho phir dekhthi hoon mein tumhe..Ab chod mujhe..

She tried to remove his arms from her waist when he tightened his hold on her and kept his chin on her shoulder making her look at him in surprise. Come on, how come your contract husband who perhaps, hates you can become so romantic in one day, she's supposed to be shocked, for sure..

Aadit: But, I've heard a voice..

Manik ( gritted his teeth ): Baby, where's that voice coming from..??

And she widened her eyes and palmed his mouth, he opened his mouth but his lips were covered with chocolate and she took her hands back and looked at his lips and busted out in laughter..

Nandini: Oh my God, you're covered in...

He glared at her when he tasted chocolate while the hearer was getting quiet uncomfortable..

Aadit ( angrily ): Nandini, mein phirse wo aawaaz sunn raha hoon, aur tum kisse bath kar rahe ho..?? Who's covered in what..??

And this halted her laughter in it's track while Manik smirked..

Manik: Oh God, baby, why didn't you tell me you were speaking on phone..Um, hey, may I know who's it..??

Aadit ( pissed ): May I know who's this, first..??

Manik ( smirked ): Of course you can, its Manik Malhotra..you were speaking with MY WIFE..

Poor Nandini, she will surely push her eyes out of it's sockets today, too much of shocks are injurious for health..

Aadit ( angrily ): What..??

Manik's eyes were spitting fire for hearing someone shouting at him, well, apart from his wife as she will only shout at him..

Manik: Yes, you're speaking to Nandini's husband, now who are you Mr..? Nandini, baby who's it..??

Nandini came out of her shock zone..

Nandini: Uh..it's...Aadit..

Manik ( gritted his teeth ): Who Aadit..??

Nandini ( shocked with his angry face ): My colleague..Dr. Aadit Sharma..

Manik ( fake surprised ): Ah, that Aadit. Hello Mr. Sharma. I hope, you're doing well. Actually, I'm here to take my wife, I need her in OUR bedroom, probably you know why..She'll talk to you tomorrow, maybe in hospital or maybe never..Bye..

He pressed the " END " option while Aadit threw his mobile in frustration and ended up in tears..poor boy..

Manik turned to Nandini who was now staring at him with widened eyes..He tightened his hold on her and shouted..

Manik: Why the hell does he call you every now and then..Uss dhin subah bhi isseeka hi call aaya tha na aur ab rath ko bhi. Chahthe kya hai wo HONEY BEE chipku..

And she got out of her second shock zone, seems like, its shock day for her..oops shock night..

But, now , she remembered something..Shit..!!!!!

Nandini ( whispered ): Did you just tell to honey bee that you were taking me to BEDROOM..??

And this time, it was Manik's turn to get shocked. Uh-oh, what was the need of telling it, actually..??

Nandini ( freaked out ): Holy shit..Mathlab. you did tell him.. Oh God, ye kya kaha tumne..Ussko laga hoga ki mein tumhare saath..chiiiiiii......Tum beech mein aaya hi kyun..Hey bhagwan ji, kal mein uske samne kaise jaaoongi..ek tho usko mujhpe crush hai aur oopar se tumne aisa kuch kaha tho obviously kal mujhe fry karega wo..

Manik ( pissed ): Chup..ekdum chup..kabse bak bak kar rahe ho tum..?? Aur, what was wrong in it, huh..beewi ho na, tho ye sab normal hai, husband aur wife ke beech mein..kyu..??

Nandini ( glared ): Seriously..??

Manik ( smirked ): Oh yes, ab Nandini Malhotra se badla lena ithni aasan hogi, ye mene socha hi nahi..Ab Mrs. Malhotra, wahi karogi jo mein keh raha hoon warna uss chipku se mein isse bhi zyada matured stuffs bol dhoongi, phir tum iss job se hi resign karoge..Kyu, achi baath hai na..??

Nandini ( stunned ); What...!!!!

Manik ( smirked ): Tit for Tat..!! Manik Malhotra se panga le liya na tumne, ab bhuktho..

Saying it, he left her and walked out of the kitchen with the bottle of water in his hand while she stomped her feet and punched the wall which forced her to yelp in pain..

Nandini: Damn, karate phirse practice karni hai mujhe..chod, ab iss Grumpy Coffee ke barein mein sochna chahiye mujhe..Ugh..ye coffee wala uss honey wale se tho ithni ghatiya bathein karega tho mein hospital jaana hi bandh karoongi..Kuch tho karna padega warna mein isko mere style mein kaise teek karwaoon..

Her gaze fell on her cake and she pouted..

Nandini: Uss Grumpy Coffee ki wajah se mein apne cake bhool gayi..chalo baby, let me make you handsome..

And she got busy with her cake..

In Living Room

Manik was sitting with a pissed face, while wiping his lips with the tissue which had chocolate on it, when he saw his friends entering inside. One with an angry face, second with a scared look on his face and third with a bored look on his face..

Manik ( frowned ): Shravan, why do you look so scared..??

Shravan ran to Manik and sat beside him and hid behind his back, who was sighing in disbelief..

Manik: Phirse buddy ne kuch kaha kya..??

Arijit stomped his foot on the floor and thumped on the couch making Shravan jump in fear. Abhimanyu, simply sat beside Arijit with a casual look on his face but his eyes immediately started searching for someone..

Manik ( sighed ): Buddy, Shravan ko kya hua hai..? Aise bhi kya kiya tune..??

Arijit: Mathlab, sab kuch mein hi kartha hoon..? Ye ithna bhi bhola nahi, mene kaha tha usse ki uske wo irritating friends se kehdho ki mere car pe nazar hi math laga par sunthe kaha ye..

Shravan ( pouted ): Bhai, sach mein mere koi friends ne kuch bhi nahi kiya. Maine unn logon ke pitai kiya hai..

Arijit ( glared ): Pitai tho mein karoonga ab, wo bhi murder thak pohanchega phir..

Manik ( annoyed ): Koi bolega, baath kya hai..??

Abhimanyu ( chuckled ): Ab kya bolun Manik, murder hua hai..murder..

Manik ( horrified ): Kiski..??

Shravan ( whispered ): Arijit Sinha ki favorite CAR ki..

Manik widened his eyes in shock and stared at Arijit who was huffing like a bull..

Abhimanyu: Back to earth, Manik Malhotra..

Manik ( still shocked ): Par, hua kya hai..??

Sharavan ( sadly ): Kya bolun Manik Bhai, dho din pehle, raath mein jab main so raha tha tab kisi ki cheek sunn liya aur jaise mene bahar nikla tab dekhliya Bhai ke angry face aur uske samne raha unka car " fully destroyed " aur phir saare ilzam mujhpe nikla, ab aap hi bathayiye Bhai, agar mere friends Bhai ke car ko ithna ogle karthe hai tho ismein mere kya kusoor hai..

Arijit: Kusoor hai, agar ogle karthe hai tho destroy bhi kar sakthe hai, aakhir unn idiots ka tho nahi ho paega na mera car..

Shravan: Dekho na Manik Bhai, phirse mujhe hi daant rahe hai, pichle dho din se yahi karthe hai..Agar mere koi exams nahi tha tho mein Malhotra Mansion mein sone keliye aajatha..

Manik hugged him from sideways and glared at Arijit who was still huffing..

Manik: Buddy, tum Shravan ko kyu daant rahe ho, usne bola na uski koi galathi nahi..

Cabir: Kiski kya galathi nahi hai Bhai..??

Cabir occupied a seat beside Shravan and both gave a fist bump to each other.

Abhimanyu ( chuckled ): Murder..murder..Arijit Sinha ki car ki murder..

Cabir ( palmed his mouth ): Whattt..!!! How..? Why..???

Shravan: Arey yehi sawal mene bhi poocha..?? And most important was WHY..??

Arijit: Tumhara duffer friends ne hi kiya hai..

Cabir ( laughed ): Iske friends..Lol, Arijit Bhai, iske saare friends chomus hai aur chomus hi rahenge except for me, par baaki ke, kisike paas bhi ithni himmath nahi jo Arijit Sinha ki ghar aake unke ghadi ka murder kar sakthe hai..

Abhimanyu ( bored look ): Right. Main bhi yahi samjha raha tha iss gadhe ko par sunn hi nahi raha hai..

Arijit ( glared ): Gadhe kisko bola..

Abhi: Abey iss waqt Cabir nahi balki tum gadhon ke kaam rahe hai tho obviously tumhe hi bulaoonga na..

Cabir: Oye kameene, galathi Arijit Bhai ke hai aur beizati meri..

Abhi: Jo bhi ho..tum hamesha gadhon ke list top karega..so chill..

Cabir: Tumhari honewali beewi keliye mujhe bura lag raha hai, bohath jaldh hi shaheed honewala hai tu..

Abhi ( murmured ): Khudki behen ko hi widow banne ke planning kar raha hai saala..

Arijit ( frowned ): Tumne kuch kaha, Abhi..??

Abhi ( stupid grin ): Mene muh khola hi nahi..

Cabir/Shravan: Ek second..

And everyone froze, Cabir and Shravan looked at each other and gave a look..

Shravan: Saala, kutha, kameene bathaya hi nahi aaj Nyo Aunty ne cake banaya hai..

Cabir: What the f***, mere ghar mein cake banaya hai aur mujhe abhi hi patha chala..saala, tu meri Ma ko phone karke bathaya hoga, hamesha tere liye hi sab kuch banathi hai Mom..

Shravan: What the *****...

Manik and Arijit slapped their brothers on their butts making them wince in pain..

Arijit: Chup..kabse what the what the keh rahe ho..

Manik: Ghar pe Mom and Dad hai aur Muku bhi, unke samne aise bathein karthe hai kya koi..

Cabir: Arey wo sab tho manage karenge..mere Mom and Dad cool hai..

Abhi: Wo bhi tho hai..Aur Mukti bhi kaha bache dikh raha hai tumhe..

Arijit: Wo bachi hi hai. Bas 18 saal ki hai tho obviously bachi hai, ye sab usko patha nahi chalna chahiye..

Abhi ( made a crying face ): Koi mere feelings ke barein mein soch bhi nahi raha hai..

Sharavan: Wo sab chod..cake kaha hai..

Shravan was about to get up When Cabir pulled him and tried to go, but this time Manik pulled him down..

Manik: Chup kar yar. Mom ne koi cake nahi banaya hai, wo tho Lilliput ne banaya hai..

" Lilliput..??" asked the trio while Cabir has licked his lips..

Cabir: Wah, meri behen ithni ache se bake bhi karthi hai..

Abhi ( happily ): Mukti baking bhi karthi hai..??

Cabir ( irritated ): Yar, Muku nahi, mere dho behene hai, aur Bhai ki Lilliput koi aur nahi balki unki beewi hai..

Arijit and Abhimanyu started laughing with the new name while Shravan too licked his lips, just like his best friend..

Shravan: Meri Bhabi ithne ache se bake karthe hai, mujhe tho patha hi nahi tha..

Soon, they saw Nandini coming out of the kitchen while wiping her face with the tissue but she got startled when they shouted her name..

Shravan/Cabir: Bhabi/Nandini....

Nandini, clutched her heart and glared at the duo and marched towards them..

Nandini: Seriously, ek tho ye Grumpy Coffee ko chillane se alawa aur kuch aatha hi nahi aur oopar se ab tum dhono bhi chillake darana shuru kiya..Mathlab, mujhe teek se jeene nahi de sakthe ho kya..

Shravan ( scratched his chin ): Ek minute, ek minute Bhabi. Sweet coffee, Bitter Coffee aur Salty coffee bhi suna hai but what the hell is Grumpy Coffee..??

Abhi ( confused ): Bhale koi coffee grumpy ho sakthe kya..??

Cabir ( smirked ): Of course, coffee grumpy ho sakthe hai jab wo insan banthe hai..

Arijit ( annoyed ): Kya bak rahe ho Cabir..Coffee insaan kaise ho sakthe hai..

Mukti: Kyunki wo insan ko cofee kuch zyada hi pasand hai, isiliye hua Mr. Grumpy Coffee..

Mukti spoke in an excited tone and stood behind Nandini and snaked her arms around her ( Nandini ) neck..

Abhi ( stupid grin ): Elaboration...???

Manik: Shut up..that's the elaboration..khush..??

Cabir: Nah..khush nahi..elaboration yeh hai ki Manik Malhotra hai jiske nickname Grumpy Coffee hai, given by his own wife..

" WHATTTT...!!!!" was the only reaction from the three while Nandini palmed her ears, again.

Nandini: Iss ghar mein chillake bina bhi bath kar sakthe hai. Koi tax nahi le rahe hai. Aur tum log ithna hungama kyu kar rahe ho..wo bas ek naam hai na..

Shravan ( stunned ): Are you serious, Bhabi..? Mathlab, aapne, the Great Manik Malhotra ko nickname diya..wo bhi GRUMPY COFFEE..???

Manik shot a glare at Shravan who was still staring at Nandini with widened eyes, while Arijit and Abhimanyu looked a each other and started laughing loudly making Manik more angry..

Manik: Will you guys shut up, monkey jaise hass kyu rahe ho..??

Nandini ( casually ): Iss dunya mein monkeys ke alawa bhi hasthe hai, for example, dogs, cats, elephants etc..Par hum samaj nahi sakthe par haa humans ke tho hum samaj bhi sakthe hai aur sunn bhi sakthe hai..

Manik made an irritated face while the boys stared at her without blinking their eyes except for Mukti and Cabir, for them, its casual so they were busy in chuckling..

Cabir: Come on guys, ye sab tho normal hai. Aajkal Manik Malhotra ki koi izzat hi nahi hai..

Manik: Cabirrr...

Mukti ( giggled ): Cabir Bhai, bas Bhabi hi Manik Malhotra ko control sakthe hai, aap nahi tho thoda sambhalke beizathi karo..

Cabir ( grinned ): Ye tho mene socha hi nahi..Par Nandini hai na mere madad karne keliye..she'll save me from Manik Malhotra's wrath..

Nandini: Mein kyu bachaoon aapko..? Aapne mauth ko hello kaha tho bye kehna bhi aapka kaam hai..

Cabir made a crying face while others chuckled..

Manik ( gritted his teeth ): Tumhe mein mauth dikhtha hoon..??

Nandini: Ab tum khud accept kar rahe ho tho mein kya kar sakthi hoon..

Manik: Right, I'm the death. Or precisely, I'm the death of women..

Shravan: Sahi hai, Bhabi. Aap nahi janthe, your hubby is so hot that women literally fell on their knees in front of him..

Manik smirked at Nandini while she gave a bored look to Shravan..

Nandini: Of course, he should be. After all, he's hot..

Manik looked at her with widened mouth and so others for hearing her commenting on Manik, openly.

Nandini ( smirked ): He's hot because his brain's temperature is always high..!! Hamesha chillathe rehthe hai..

And Manik's smirk was wiped off his face while others again laughed at him, poor Grumpy Coffee..

Manik: You know, you'll pay for it, right..

He gave a hint through his deadly glare and she smirked at him..

Nandini: Really..?? Go ahead..

She ignored him making others chuckle and him angry. She was about to walk out when Shravan and Cabir stopped her..

Shravan/Cabir: Mujhe cake chahiye..

They both looked at each other with " only for me " look on their faces..

Nandini: Cake..? Ab tum logonko cake leke aane keliye agar mein naukar dikhthi hoon tho sorry, I'm unavailable. I'm a professional doctor.

Cabir: Arey nahi meri Ma, we were talking about your cake. Manik Bhai has said that you were making the cake..

Nandini made an " oh " face and nodded and moved to the kitchen and came back with the cake and placed it on the tea-poi much to the boys' greed for the cake..

Shravan: This looks so yummyyyyy....

Cabir: Nope, this tastes so yummy..

And he saww Cabir has already started eating the cake when he was busy in admiring it. He snatched Cabir's cake and ate it..

Cabir: Saala, wo mera tha..

While, Shravan was still devouring it and Nandini palmed her face and cut the cake and gave it to Cabir and gave a piece to Abhi, Arijit and Mukti, who returned smiles except for Arijit who gave a plain look to her and she was no less, she too ignored him..

She took a piece to Manik and forwarded to him who glared at her..

Manik: Mein cake nahi khatha hoon..

Nandini: Kyu..?? Diabetic ho..?

Manik ( scowled ): What the h..

And he shut his eyes tightly while Nandini shot a glare at him..

Nandini: I so hate that phrase....

Saying it, she pushed the cake in Manik's mouth when he was about to say something..

Manik: Nandii*********

Nandini: Mene pehle bhi kaha tha ki mujhe food language aathi nahi so zip your mouth and speak once you finish it..

But, Manik was busy in relishing it, he missed it, he missed those evening desserts..

Shravan ( serious face ): Bhabi, aapke koi male friends the..? I mean, are you any shy type..??

Each of them looked at him with scrutinizing gazes..

Nandini: Kyu..? Tere paas koi ladka hai kya jo mujhe apne dosth banne keliye tadap raha hai..

Shravan: Arey nahi..bas kehdho na..

Nandini ( shrugged her shoulders ): Haa hai..

Mukti: Kaunse angle se tujhe Bhabi shy type lag rahe hai yar..

Shravan simply grinned at her and walked to Nandini, who has by now, occupied a seat beside Manik.

Shravan: Tho ismein koi problem nahi hoga..

She was confused and so others. But soon she got to know, when Shravan took her hand in his and kissed her palm making her shock and so others. Mukti's cake from her mouth fell on the floor. Cabir and Abhi looked at him with widened eyes and Arijit's jaw was practically touching the floor..

While for Manik, for the first time, he looked at Shravan with pissed off face. Had Shravan looked into his eyes, he would have been died by now with Manik Malhotra's famous glares..Nandini was looking at Shravan with wide opened mouth and eyes which could come out of it's sockets..

Shravan ( grinned sheepishly ): I loved that cake aur aapne cake inhi hathon se banaya na tho isiliye ek kissie for it..

Nandini sighed in relief..

Nandini: Oh thank God, mujhe laga tumhe mujhse pyar hua. Yar Bhabi Ma saman hai aur waise bhi mein tujhse badi hoon tho Didi hi hoon tumhareliye isiliye darr gayi thi..

Shravan ( shocked ): Kya Bhabi..aap tho mere liye badi behen hi hai..par haa, pyar hoga tho bilkul aap jaise kisise hi hoga..ekdum cute aur fun-loving..

Nandini ( smirked ): Patha hai, tumhe kehne ke zaroorath nahi, mein hoon hi ithni cute..

Shravan and Nandini chuckled together while Mukti, Cabir, Abhi and Arijit too sighed in relief..

Mukti: Iss kumbkaran ki aulad ne tho mujhe heart attack hi diya tha..

Shravan: Oye mein zyada nahi sotha hoon..Wiase, tumhe mein heart attack kyu doonga aur tu heart attack ke baad ithni jaldhi teek bhi hui..

Cabir: Kameene, ab tu Nandini ki hath ko kiss diya tho aisa hi hoga na..

Shravan ( pouted ): Ismein kya problem hai, wo ithni tasty cake khilayi hai hume tho obviously we need to thank her. Aap sab ko bhi karna chahiye tha..

Which means, even Abhi and Arijit could kiss his wife, what the hell..!! Is she some kissing machine..

Manik: Nooo...

Hearing his shout, Nandini jumped in her seat while others looked at him in shock..

Nandini: Mujhe yaha beithna hi nahi chahiye thi..wo din dhoor nahi hai jab mein apne kaanth ko RIP hothe hue dekh paaongi..

Saying it, she got up and moved to the kitchen with the cake for Raj and Nyonika or else, even that would be eaten by the bunch of "Bhukkad"..

Cabir ( raised his eyebrows ): What was that, Bhai..??

Manik: Wh..hat..??

Shravan: Arey aapne chillaya tho obviously we gotta ask..

Manik ( glared ): Tumse bath karna hi bekar ki bath hai..

He too got up and moved out of the living room while others shared a confused look but Mukti and Cabir had some hints..

In MaNan's bedroom

Nandini got inside the bedroom only to get pinned on the wall but instead of shrieking, she was sighing in disbelief..

Nandini: Kya hai Grumpy Coffee..mujhe chain se jeene nahi de sakthe ho tum..??

Manik ( glared ): Shut up..Just shut up, ab tho tumhe chillana aathi hai par Shravan ki samne kuch bhi nahi kiya, kya hua tha tab..

Nandini ( confused ): Ek tho mein apne muh kabhi bandh nahi karthi hoon aur tum ho ki keh rahe ho ki mein Shravan ke samne kuch nahi kiya, mathlab, mujhe hi nahi patha chala ki mein kab muh bandh karke beithi thi..

Manik ( annoyed ): Why did you let him kiss you..??

Nandini ( angrily ): Pehli baath, he didn't kiss me, mere chota Bhai jaise hai, he had just kissed my palm aur doosri baath, what's wrong in it..?? Aur waise bhi, tumhe kya farak padtha hai isse..Oh hello, sirf tum mujhse nafrath karthe ho baaki ke sab pasand karthe hai mujhe..Aakhir, mein hoon hi ithni achi..

He simply grabbed her waist and moved closer to her face halting her rants and for the first time, she gulped hard, his gaze was so intense..

Manik: Tumse bath karke koi faida nahi phir bhi mein ek baar keh raha hoon..Mujhe.pasand.nahi.hai...Mujhe.pasand.nahi.koi.agar.kiss.kare.tujhe..I shouldn't see it happening again..

She shivered with his tone..That was quiet commanding..

Manik: Suna tumne..???

She could only nod and he was about to move when his gaze fell on her palm which was kissed by Shravan. He looked in her eyes to see them confused. He took her palm in his and rubbed them making her gulp more.

Nandini: Umm...can you..stop it..

And, he got back into his senses. Soon, he left her and moved out of the room while she sighed in relief and thumped on the floor..

Nandini: Iss Grumpy Coffee ko mental asylum bhejna hi chahiye warna mein pagal hojaoongi..

She palmed her face and tried to control her breathe but she was still going back to whatever happened back then..

Nandini ( pouted ): Ye sab kya hai..What's this new tingling sensation in my stomach..Bhagwan ji..aapki bachi pagal hai, aaj mein wo bath bhi maan liya..

She made a crying face and sat there till she could get her breathe back...

To be continued..
