It has been a week since the engagement of Manik and Nandini. They are day by day coming closer to each other.

There is a bit more teasing and flirting among them. Both families are also close with each other. After many years Grandma is also feeling happy with all the love and care she is receiving from Karan, Krystal and all the children.

She is experiencing this environment of joy and teasing after a long time as after death of her son and daughter in law she was all alone with Manik.

On one hand she had to manage the company and other side she also had to take Manik's care. In all this work life she forgot how to live a happy and relaxed life.

No doubt Manik took care of her. He never lacked in any way but there was always a void in her heart craving for a happy family and also craving for Manik who never experienced what is parents love because of early death of his parents. But now she is contended with her new family.

Both Manik and Nandini are opening up to each other as the days are passing on and on. They both are doing something special for one another even though they are very small small things.

Like One day Manik visited Nandini's office and took her for a small coffee date.

*******************************************************************************************************************************

Today is one such day, Nandini wake up welcoming a new day with a beautiful smile and shining eyes. She decided to surprise Manik today and spend some time with him.

She go to office with Abhi in his car and asks him not to wait for her in evening as she will be leaving office in half day as she is going to meet Manik. 

In evening, She is visiting Manik's office without his knowledge to give him a surprise taking half day leave from office after winding up all her work.

On reaching Manik's office she goes toward reception desk.

"Excuse me can you tell me where is Manik's office" She asked to receptionist

"How can you call him by his name and who are you just look at yourself why will Manik meet you." receptionist replied to her in a very rude way while eyeing her up and down

"In my knowledge Manik should be your boss and you call your boss by his name and you are asking me who m i to call my fiancé by his name. I didn't know that i can't call him by his name. If you know what i should call him you can suggest me some better name. What do you say should i call him sweetheart or honey or better call him darling. What do you say?" She said while being cocky and arrogant                                                                                                                             
(In mind: I am no more the old Nandini now i know how to deal with whom and i very well know how i should treat such girls who are always ready to make rumors and clinging to her boss in order to gain indecent favor)

"Sorry ma'am, please don't complain about this to sir. I'll never do such thing again and sir's cabin is on 22nd floor" receptionist pleads Nandini to forgive her

"Ok i'll not complain to Manik but you better be careful" Nandini replied and moves towards Manik's cabin

******************************************************************************************************************************

Here in Manik's cabin, he is busy giving lecture or we can say shouting on his employee for his incompetency and Aman is finding ways to calm his boss and safe the life of employee who can pass out anytime due to Manik's anger.

Manik asks Aman for a file which is in his cabin and moves towards his office to collect the file.     
On his way back to Manik's cabin he finds Nandini on his floor and moves towards her.

"Hello Ma'am" He greets Nandini

"Hi Aman" She greets him back "And Aman how many time do i need to ask you not to call me ma'am. Please you are like a family to us so don't call me ma'am at all this is my last warning" She threatens Aman teasingly

"As you say my highness" He also replies back to her playfully

"BY the way please manage your to-be-hubby, he is on his way to shoot a employee with his anger. So please save an innocent soul's life" he informs her about Manik's office situation in a funny way in reply of which Nandini says to lead her to her future hubby and both moves towards Manik's office

"Hey Manik" Nandini greets Manik while barging into his cabin 

Firstly Manik is startled to find Nandini in his cabin then after composing himself he greets her back and is busy in checking her out but comes out of his trance after hearing Aman coughing and dismiss his employee who in his mind is currently thanking Nandini to save him from devils scoldings and Aman also leaves from there taking permission to leave from Manik .

"So what do i owe the pleasure of having my lady in my office at this time" Manik asks while coming a little closer to Nandini and capturing her in his arms

"Nothing much Mr. Malhotra, your lady just wanted to spend some time with her fiancé and give him a little surprise" 

"And i very much loved your this surprise" He replied while pecking her cheeks which in turn made Nandini blush turning her cheeks crimson red

"So Mr. fiancé will you come on a coffee date with me" she asks him out 

"Pleasure is all mine my love" Manik replied which surprised Nandini a little as it is very rare that he calls her with all these endearments

"Don't be surprised by all this and get used to this as it will become very common for me to call you with all these names as i like calling you in this way." Manik replied and moves along with her towards the basement where his car is parked

Both of them settle themselves in his car and moves toward their destination about which Nandini already informed Manik .

**************************************************************************************************************************

After a while, enjoying their calm and peaceful ride to their destination both moves out of the car and Manik is astonished while looking at the view in front of him as while living in the same city he never knew such a place existed there.

The View

"Nandini how do you know about this calm and amazing place as while living in the same city i never knew such a place existed in this city which is full of hustle and bustle all around the clock." Manik asked her while looking at the view astonished.

"Actually this place both me and Abhi Bhai discovered when we were on our sibling time. While coming on the bike for a long drive we both discovered this place but we never brought anyone with us to this place as we wanted to keep it a secret only for our siblings time" Nandini explained him the story behind this place

"So why you brought me here. Won't it be a cheating on your promise and on top of that how will Abhi feel if he come to know that you brought me here" He asked her about his doubts

"You don't need to worry about that as i already asked Bhai for his permission to bring you here" She explained him and both of them spend time with each other talking nine to dozen with each other

"By the way you asked me out for a coffee date but there is no coffee love" Manik teased her for her excuse to bring him here

"Who said i have no coffee. Tan-TanA here is the coffee darling" Nandini said while bringing coffee from the box she was carrying with herself and teasing him

Then both of them drinks their coffee while absorbing the silence of the night along with each others presence.

Later Manik drops Nandini back to Murthy Mansion and call it a night.

Like this both of them spend their time with each other while coming close with each other and getting to know about each others personality, likes, dislikes and many more.
