Flashback continue..

"Manik I can't please. Don't." Neyonika said walking here and there.

"Manik she is right, this is a big step. One day the truth will come out. before that you say it. “ Cabir said, all nodded but manik looking down.

"Manik.?

"Ma please, I know truth will come out soon, but I will manage her. If marriage happen, she won't leave me." Manik said emotionally but his friends and Neyonika were not convinced.

"So you don't agree, right. Then go say all the truth to her and send her away from me. And be happy." Manik shouted and walked out banging the door harder.

"God!!why is he not understanding what we are saying for his own good only?" Neyonika said sadly.

Aliya held her shoulder and said "Aunty he will understand, don't worry."

"No Aliya he won't, he loves her so he might do anything. Ma Manik is important for us." Mukthi said, Neyonika looking down.

"Hey Ma."Aman walked in, and saw all sad.

"Why all sad, did anything happen?" Aman asked all.

"It's about Manik beta, he wants to marry a girl." Neyonika said.

"Wow!!Manik loves a girl, it's something new. Why no preparation still then?" Aman asked them.

"She is a middle class girl, if your father gets to know that's all." Aman made Ohh face. All sat thinking about something.

"Ma if he knows only ma problem will come." Aman said, making everyone confused.

"Are you mad? He is his father, he must know it." Dhruv said.

"Yaaar tell a lie he is out of station or working in another country will come only once in a year." Aman shrugged his shoulders.

Fab4 smirked hearing it but Neyonika became sad.

"But this much lies are not good in a relationship." Neyonika said.

"Ma it's for happiness and love, you only said na 1000 lies can be said for a Marriage to happen. It will be like that." Aman hugged her. Neyonika looked at fab4 who nodded yes, for the happiness of Manik.

"Thankq thankq ma." Manio hugged Neyonika in happiness who rubbed his back.

"Brother half idea is mine. Say thanks to me too." Aman said.

"When you came?" Both shared a hug, fab4 rolled their eyes at enemies outside home but brothers in front of mother.

"Just want to share the news with Ma. But got to know about you." Aman said, rubbing his nape.

"What is it?" Neyonika asked him.

"Ma.. actually...i..." His words stopped when he heard a voice. All turned to see Nandini standing with support of door.

Manik immediately rushed to her with Neyonika, "Jaan who asked you to come out of the room? Can't you call me?"

"Beta are you fine? Why are you out of the bed?" Fab4 smiled at mother and son care for Nandini. Aman stood in confusion seeing her here. He saw her in care two months back.

"Ma I am fine, actually I feel bored there so came to see you all." Nandini said, looking down to avoid scolding.

Manik glared at her and said "Jaan is totally bad. You need complete rest. Come."

"Ahh..Manik." Nandini shouted when he picked her up in bridal style. Fab4 made Ooh sound, making Nandini blush and Manik glared at them.

"Romance not in front of friends and mother Manik, keep it all inside a room." Cabir said, making everyone laugh except Manik who walked away and Aman in shock.

"Mom, who is she?" Aman asked.

"She is manik's girl, soon to be mrs. Manik Malhotra." Mukthi said smiling, which broke Aman's heart.

He saw her in a cafe and loved her at first sight thought to say to her mother first and then her but it all happened so fast now he is going to be the wife of her brother.

"Ma we will go and make all the arrangements for marriage." Dhruv said walking out with fab3.

"Aman what happened? You what to say something?" Neyonika asked him who nodded no with a fake smile and walked out leaving confused Neyonika behind.

"Manikkkk..Manik..I am fine...listen...Manikk.." Nandini continuously called and tried to stop Manik who was massaging her legs but Manik didn't even once listen to her.

"Manik see here na." Nandini made a crying face, and Manik immediately turned to her. Nandini smirked at her talent.

"What happened to you? Why are you so silent?" Nandini asked with a cute pout. Manik crawled and sat beside her, pecking her pout. Nandini looked down, frowning. 

"If I ask you something will you say no?" Manik asked, looking at his hands.

Nandini frowned and nodded no, hugging his arms.

"Will you marry me and spend the other half of your life with me?" Manik asked, looking straight into her eyes.

Nandini got heartattack in a second, "Ma..Manik married this soon."

"Why don't you want to marry me?" Manik asked in a hurry, Nandini held his hands and said "No not like that, I don't know I am fit for being your life partner Manik. To be honest I never thought you would ask me to marry you."

"Jaann." Manik sighed and pulled into his lap. "Jaan don't think I loved you for timepass and leave you. My love is true for you, till my death I will be loving you."

Nandini palm his mouth and nodded no, "Don't talk about death and all Manik for this. Just I shared my view." And looked down. Manik looked at her for an answer.

"Are you ok?" Manik asked her.

Nandini looked down and nodded yes blushing, Manik pulled her into a tight hug making her giggle.

"Love you Jaan." Kissing her forehead.

Nandini kissed his cheek and said "Love you too Manik." Both stayed like that, absorbing each other's presence.

"But Manik, I want a simple wedding in a temple. Is it ok?" Manik looking down thinking.

"God!! What is going on? I want to give my wife all happiness and make my wedding big for her but I can't." He sighed sadly.

"Mani sorry if I… . . “

"No Jaan it's ok. I will tell Ma about this, don't worry. You need first complete rest." Manik said, making her lay down. Nandini made a grumpy pout nodding no.

"Please Jaan for me na, take a rest." Manik said making a cute face, she nodded and closed her eyes, Manik kept patting her head slowly.

"I am sorry Jaan, sure after marriage I will say all. I just want you to not leave me. You can call me selfish but after my mother you are the only one who gave me peace, I can't destroy it in my own hands and go back to my darkness world." Manik thought of looking at Nandini.

Flashback end

"Manik, your guess is right. Many calls went to Italy from the office." Dhruv said giving a call list to him.

Manik going through it playing with paper weight, "Everything is from Papa pa's number. What deal did our company sign with them?" He looked at Aliya who was typing something on the computer.

"Some weapons deal, but they expired a month ago." Aliya said.

Manik nodded, leaning back on his chair comfortably, "Manik, what is your plan getting this?" Cabir asked.

"Just having some doubt on nearby people itself, Cabir. Keep enemies nearby making your kingdom fall soon." Manik said making all confused.

Knock knock

"Come in." Manik said. One guard came in and bowed to Manik who nodded.

"Capo, some old man standing out and asking about you." Manik frowned and looked at fab4 who shrugged their shoulders.

"Who is he?" Mukthi said to him.

"Don't know mam, he said he has something important to talk to capo." He said, Manik on the camera outside. He saw an old man who was wearing an old fashion shirt and pants, having a file too.

"Get him in." Manik said, looking into footage. After a few minutes the door opened revealing him.

Manik looked at him closely, trying to embed who he is?

"Who are you?" Dhruv asked him who was looking at manik only. Fab4 shared a look.

"He is asking something. Who are you?" Manik asked strictly, keeping a neutral face.

That old man smiled and said "Your eyes are like your mother." Manik's body stiffened hearing him, Fab4 glared at the old man.

"Listen if you want to talk rubbish then get out." Mukthi shouted at the old man who he stood unaffected by. Manik hates when someone talks about his mother in front of him, bringing him past memories.

"I am telling the truth, isn't it Aarav?" Manik was shocked when he heard his nickname which only his mother knew, not even his father or friends. Why not even Nandini. He just said to Nandini,this name for his son because he thought his mother's fav name will be with him. 

"Who are you?" Manik asked him standing up from his chair.

Old man smiled and said _________. Shocked all there. Manik eyes become tears.
