Manik & Cabir woke up the next morning to the smell of a yummy breakfast. Cabir especially was so excited he almost fell trying to run downstairs.

"Aaram se Cabir....breakfast ke pair nahi hai, it will stay in its spot!" Manik grumbled. He came down and the table was filled with so much to eat just like before....infact triple the amount.

Manik's mouth fell to the floor while Cabir sat down and started gobbling things up. Nandini watched in delight as Navya gave Cabir a weird look.

"Yeh kya pichle 50 saal se bhooka hai?" Navya whispered to her sister.

"Nandini...what is all this? I already told you...itna saara khaane ki zaroorat nahi hai."

"Par Master...that was just you. Abhi toh Cabir bhi hai na?" Nandini said innocently.

"Koi farak nahi parta. This is way too much. Kaun khayega itna?"

"Nmai!" Cabir spoke up, his mouth filled with food. Navya glared at him and smack the back of his head.

"Dont speak with your mouth full! Stupid Khajur!" Navya scolded. Manik couldnt help but laugh as Cabir pouted.

"Haha! Nice one! Main humesha isse kehta hoon par yeh sunta hi nahi." Manik highfived Navya.

"Haan yeh dikhta bhi hai....disobedient types." Navya nodded. 

"Upar se yeh kitna khaata hai! Jab dekho khaana khaana khaana! People will think he is starving." Manik added.

"Exactly! Mujhe bhi yehi lag raha tha!" 

Cabir frowned as Manik & Navya bonded over their annoyance with Cabir.

"Aww....aap dono kitne mean hai." Nandini walked over to Cabir and hugged him. "Insaan ko chain se khaane bhi dete."

"Sahi mein....yeh dono bohot mean hai Nandu. Sirf tum sweet ho." Cabir hugged her back.

Manik just rolled his eyes. "Anyways...mujhe aur Cabir ko recording pe jaana hai. Tum dono kya karne wale ho?"

Nandini exchanged a glance with Navya. "Main Di ke saath...shopping jaane wali hoon." 

"Hmm...ok. Have fun." Manik nodded. Once they left, Nandini & Navya poofed out of there.

Malhotra Industries.

Raj Malhotra was in the conference room with Karan & Arjun having a meeting with an important   Chinese Delegate. Navya & Nandini suddenly popped up behind them in the air but both were invisible.

"Di woh dekho....Master ke Papa aur dono bhai." Nandini pointed.

"Hmm....vaise hum yahan kya kar rahe hai?" Navya asked.

"Bas dekh rahe hai.....aur idea nikalenge ke inko Master se kaise milwana hai. Shhh.." Nandini replied.

"Thank you Mr Zhang. We wont let you down." Raj shook hands with the client as he left. He then turned to his sons. "Arjun. Tumhe yeh contract handle karna hai. There better not be any mistakes, Mr Zhang kabhi 2nd chances nahi dete."

"Of course Dad....lekin ek problem hai." Arjun replied.

"Kya?" Raj asked.

"Mera PA...Anandi. Woh maternity leave pe hai and I really need temp to help me out. Bohot zyada kaam badh gaya hai." Arjun said.

"Hmm...Ok. We'll hire someone immediately." Raj said.

"AAAAHHHHH!!!" Nandini suddenly screamed. Of course Raj, Karan & Arjun didnt hear so they continued their conversation like normal but Navya jumped hearing her.

"Nandu! Kya hua?" Navya asked in concern.

"IDEAAAA!" Nandini sang while wiggling in her spot like a little dance.

"Im listening...."

"Aap....yahan PA banke aa jao." Nandini said.

"Kya? Nandu....I already have a job remember?" Navya answered.

"Paata hai Di par yeh kaunsa permanent hai? Unke paas already PA hai jo maternity leave pe hai....so for now aap ban jao na? Then yeh jahan jahan jayenge...aap mujhe bol dena aur main Master ko wahan wahan bhejungi."

"Acha...aur uss se sab kuch thik ho jayega?" Navya asked. "Arre meri bholi behna...itna asan nahi hoga yeh sab."

"I know but....kahi se toh shuruhat hogi? Pls na Di....pls pls pls...PLEEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEE!"

"Acha ok ok! Suppose ke main aa jaati hoon...par kya guarantee hai ke yeh mujhe hire karenge?" Navya asked.

Nandini grinned and snapped her fingers. Suddenly Karan stood up straight. "Woh bahar intezar kar rahi hai."

Raj & Arjun looked at him weirdly. "Kaun?"

"PA....actually maine pehle hi hire kiya hai. Uska naam Navya hai." Karan replied. 

"Nandu....phirse jadu?" Navya looked sternly. Nandini just gave her a puppy god look which  melted her. "Ok...."

She popped away.

"Toh...Bhai maine jab kaha aapne tab kyun nahi bola kuch?" Arjun asked. 

Knock! Knock!

 Raj opened the door and there stood Navya wearing a white shirt and a black pencil skirt. Nandini clapped in glee and gave Navya as thumbs up as she was now the only person who could see her.

"Karan...seriously. Pehle bolna chahiye na? Bechari kabse bahar khadi hogi." Raj scolded his eldest son who was now out of Nandini's spell so he was confused.

"Kya Bolna chahiye tha Dad? Yeh kaun hai?" 

"Karan Sir...aapne hi toh mujhe hire kiya tha. Aapke Bhai Arjun sir ki temporary PA ke post ke liye?" Navya lied.

"What? Maine kab...I dont even know you?"

"Bro whats wrong with you? Abhi toh aapne khud bola that you hired her." Arjun said.

"I did?" 

"Karan....subha subha badam khaya kar." Raj said. "Anyways...Navya beta, whats your surname?"

"Surname?" Navya asked.

"Marr gaye...Hum Geniyon ke paas toh koi surname nahi hota. Ab Di kya bolegi?" Nandini got worried.

"Haan...surname." 

"Woh.....Naveli....Navya Naveli. Mera pura naam hai..."

"Hmmm...well Ms Navya Naveli. Its nice to meet you." Raj shook her hand. Arjun also greeted Navya with a smile.

"Di! Main Master ke paas jaa rahi hoon ok?" Nandini called out before poofing away.

--------------------------------------------------

Since Nandini had told Manik she was going shopping. She didnt appear infront of him and instead stayed invisible just watching as he rehearsed a song. While Navya was working at Malhotra Industries.

A few hours later, She got a msg from Navya.

Nav: Arjun Malhotra apni wife aur beti se milne jaa rahe hai, xyz restaurant mein.

Nan: Wow Di...thats perfect. Mujhe paata hai mujhe kya karna hai!

Nav: Kya?

Nan: Just wait and watch.

Nandini snapped her fingers and Cabir started rubbing his belly. "Yaar...BOHOT bhook laga hai."

"Seriously Cabir? Just 20 minutes ago humne khaana order kiya tha." Manik rolled his eyes.

"Haan par woh kaafi nahi tha....lets go to xyz restaurant! Naya hai and I wanted to try the food there." Cabir said.

"Agh....fine. Lets go." Manik agreed. Nandini followed the boys to Manik's car and sat in the back as Manik started driving. Cabir finally snapped out of Nandini's magic and looked around.

"Kaha jaa rahe hai?"

"What do you mean? xyz restaurant like we just planned." Manik gave him a look.

"WOW! Really? Tujhe kaise paata chala mujhe wahan jaana tha?!" Cabir asked excited. Nandini held her laughter in as Manik stared at him blinking.

"Tu kya Ganja phook ke aaya hai? Like...literally abhi toh baat hua...how did you forget?" Manik asked.

Finally they reached and Manik & Cabir sat at a table with Nandini floating over their heads. The waiter came and Cabir started ordering.

"Yeah...Id like the chicken deluxe burger, Large friend, large butter chicken pizza with extra cheese, 10....no make that a 20 piece chicken wings, nachos, onion rings, mozzerella sticks, jalepeno poppers, shrimp momos...and a large coke." Cabir said. The waiter nodded and turned to leave. "Oye rukh....mere dost ke order bhi le lo yaar."

"Sir....yeh...yeh sab....aapke akele ka hai?" The waiter looked shocked. 

"Haan...kyun?"

"Kuch nahi...isne aaj tak tere jaise bhkkad ko nahi dekha na iss liye." Manik said. "Anyways...Im good. Just get me a medium coke."  

"O...Okay sir." The waiter nodded and left. A few minutes later, Arjun entered the restaurant with his wife, Kajal and daughter Kuhu. Neither Manik nor Arjun had noticed eachother.

"Mumma look! Rockstall Manik!" Kuhu yelled out as she saw Manik. Hearing her, both Manik & Arjun turned and was now face to face. 

"Shit...." Cabir mumbled.

"Hi!" Kuhu ran over to Manik and held out her arm. "Can I have yol utoograph!"

Manik didnt want to interact with his brother but he couldnt say no to the small kid so he bent down and wrote his name on her arm with a smile but ignored his brother as he came to talk. 

"Cabir...chal yahan se."

"Par....mera khana?" Cabir pouted. Manik glared at him.

"Fine...lets change seats." Manik dragged Cabir to a farther table and sat down.

"Oh god...Master aap bhi na.Itne door door baithenge toh main aapko milwaungi kaise?" Nandini grumbled. She then thought of something and snapped her fingers.

"Papa...mujhe susu jaana hai." Kuhu said.

"Main chalti hoon." Kajal said.

"Nahi! Mujhe Papa chahiye." Kuhu insisted.

"Par-"

"Its ok...Ill take her." Arjun started walking Kuhu over to the women's washroom but Nandini snapped her fingers and a Out of Order sign appeared on the door. "Oh....I guess youll have to go to the boys washoom. Chal."

He took Juhu into the mens washroom and Nandini snapped her fingers again. Manik suddenly felt his stomach rumbling. 

"Ohh...I gotta go to the washroom." Manik said.

"Yeah go ahead. Main tab tak khaana khaata hoon." Cabir nodded with his mouth full.

"Itna bhi mat khaa." Manik rolled his eyes. "Varna agle stall mein tujhe baithna parega."

Manik went into the mens washroom and entered the stall next to Arjun. Nandini grinned and checked to see that no one else was there before snapping again. Arjun came out with his daughter and tried to open the door but it was locked....from the outside.

"What the...." Arjun giggled the door knob but nothing.

"Papa...kya hua?" Kuhu asked.

"Paata nahi...lock ho gaya." 

"Aap?" Manik came out of his stall and was shocked to see Arjun there. He then decided to ignore him again and went to open the door.

"Its locked." Arjun said.

"Aapne yeh kiya hai na? Why cant you leave me alone?" Manik asked annoyed. 

"Chote I swear main kuch nahi kiya." Arjun replied calmly.

"DONT call me chote." Manik growled.

"Haan Papa...Rockstall Manik toh itnaaaaaa lambu hai....chota toh nahi hai." Kuhu commented. 

"Haaye...kitnaaaa cute hai Master ki niece." Nandini gushed as she watched them from above.
