Holding hands they shared a look upon seeing cameras front of them soon as they walked out of the airport and glanced at media people. Behind Manik's bodyguards comes front of them and starts protecting them and leading the way.

None of them understand know the media knew about their arrival and got there to capture their moments. Manik holding Nandini's hand tightly pulls her closer and whispered softly into her ear.

Encircling his arm around her waist and pecking her head softly glances at his bodyguards who tried to push the media people making the way for them.

He deeply sighs when they were out of media coverage and didn't understand why they were so curious about his personal life matters.

Masking his anger and putting a smile looks at Raj who comes there and pulls him into a hug. He shakes his head and reciprocates the hug.

Breaking the he steps aside and looks at his wife who slightly pushed him and hugged Raj. Raj chuckles at her and hugs her back kissing her head.

He broke the hug and asked them settled inside the car. They all settled down and the drive away to Malthora mansion. Throughout whole journey fell asleep whereas Manik admired his wife.

He scoops his wife in his arms and starts walking inside the mansion where his mother was waiting for their arrival. Her eyes widened seeing them and rushed towards them worriedly.

Manik : mom. I know what you are about to ask but there is nothing to be worried about. She is sleeping due to the journey. I will put her to bed.

Neyoinka nodded her head and smiles patting Nandini's head who stirred in Manik's arms and snuggles making both of them smile at her.

Neyoinka : go make her sleep. Have you eaten your food? Do you want to me heat up the food?

Manik : no mom. I am not hungry. I had something to eat on the flight. You and dad should also and sleep. Dad is outside with drive uncle. Goodnight mom.

He smiles at her and kissing his mother head climbs the stairs and headed towards his room. He opens the door and switching the lights on felt good to be back home after so many days.

He walks to bed and placing her down rushed to the door and closing it went to closet and picking out a shirt of his walks back to bed and looking at his wife who was faster asleep leans down kissing her head.

Changing her clothes and putting his shirt on her he covers with duvet went washroom room. Coming out of washroom after showering he slips beside and pulling her into his arms closed his eyes.

Her eyes flutters wide open when the sun rises brightness fell over her face breaking her sleep. Snuggling into his chest she groaned yawing loudly and peeping out of his chest stares his face.

Raising her hand up and starts caressing his face and leaning closer towards him placed a kiss over his cheek and gushed over admiring her husband who looked so cute and adorable while sleeping.

After sometime she slips down the bed and walks to washroom when the realisation hits her that she late and will get scolding from her Neyoinka.

Rushing to washroom and completing her morning routine she comes out of the washroom dressed in beautiful saree looking elegant gorgeous.

Moving to dressing table she starts getting ready. Wearing the bangles in her both wrists she adores and smiles jingling her hands and shaking her head at her childish behaviour she picks up necklace and wraps it around her neck and looks at herself.

In between her eyes shifted towards the mirror where she could see the bed little it and her eyes widened when she saw her husband wide awake and shameless staring her with a smirk on his lips.

Blush rosed up over her cheeks and looked away from his gaze that burned into her soul. Bitting her inner cheeks and licking her lips she picks the vermilion box and glanced at him through who climbed the down bed and walks towards her.

When he stood her behind and wrapped his arms around her waist making her startled and starts nuzzling his face into her neck while taking the vermilion box off her hand and looks at her.

Making distance between them he held her shoulder and turns her around cupping her face and leaning forward kissing her head and taking pinch of vermillion between his fingers he looks at and smiling at her who closed her eyes fills her hairline and dropped some of it on her nose.

She opens her eyes and looks at him who wiped it off kissing her nose and looks at her with a smile.

Manik : good morning sunshine. You look stunning. I didn't thought my wife could look this beautiful in the morning. You always take my breath away.

He leans closer and was about to capture her lips but was disappointed when he heard a knock along with Mukti loud voice. He cursed under his breath and looks at his wife who chuckles pushing him and moves toward the door opening it.

Mukti seeing Nandini rushed inside hugs her tightly and starts ranting how much she missed her whereas Manik rolling his eyes went to washroom.

Chuckling at Mukti Nandini hugs Mukti and patted her head and breaking the hug looks at her.

Nandini : I missed you a lot Mukti. Now I am back we will have so much fun together.

Mukti : you won't believe it how much I missed you Bhabhi. You are right. We will have fun so much together. You look gorgeous. I am sorry to disturb you but I wanted to ask you something.

Nandini: yes! What is it Mukti? You didn't need to feel any hesitation. Ask me whatever you want.

Mukti: i wanted to ask you if I could borrow one of your saree to wear it today. I promise I will return it back to you. I thought to ask mom but then seeing how beautiful and awesome selection you have I thought to ask you. Please Bhabhi. Just today.

Nandini looks at Mukti and shaking her head slaps her head and holding her hand took her to closet and opening it asked Mukti to chose it.

Nandini: crazy girl. Stop being so formal with me. You don't have to be scared to ask. Choose whatever you like and you don't have to return it.

Mukti smiles and hugging Nandini and shouting how much she loves her breaks the hug and starts shuffling through the saree and picking one of them she turns and thanking Nandini and kissing her head walks out of the room whereas Nandini chuckles at her behaviour and thought about how both brother and sister are similar yet different.

Shaking her head she turns around and looks at her husband who walks out of the washroom bare chest and a towel around his waist.

Manik : where did Mukti go? Why did she even come disturbing our romance? Couldn't she come later. I didn't even get my kiss.

He spoke as he starts walking towards her who rolls her eyes and ignoring him took his clothes out and threw it at his face who looked surprised.

Nandini : hold onto your emotions Manik. We are already late. Have you forgotten we are having name ceremony at home for Navya and cabir baby? You can do your romance later. Now go and get ready otherwise we will get teased by others.

Manik : I haven't forgotten anything sunshine. Why would they tease us? What you make you think like that? I haven't done anything yet.

Nandini: stop being innocent because we both know you are not innocent but shameless man who can't keep his hands and words in control.

Manik : is that so love? I thought you loved it when my hands and mouth are not in control.

Passing him deathly glare and grabbing her phone she walks out of the room not before cursing at him who just chuckles and ruffling his hair went to bed and starts getting ready.

( Nandini's attire)

Descending downstairs she found her whole family sitting in living room and chatting away. Her eyes fell on Navya who held her newborn baby.

Greeting everyone and hugging her parents and bother she looks at Navya who stood up and smiles at Nandini. Nandini looking at the baby carefully took it in her arms and went awe seeing how cute he looked while sleeping.

Nandini : he looks so cute Navya. Look how he is snuggling into my chest recognising my touch. I can hold him a little longer. I don't feel like giving him.

Navya nodded her head and went back to her seat while Nandini smiles looking at the baby boy in her arm and sat down beside Mukti who smiles at her.

Cabir : Nandini where is our friend Manik?

Nandini looks at her and was about to reply but before that Manik himself from the stairs replied coming downstairs and glares cabir who smirks.

Manik greeting the elders asks Mukti to move away and sits beside Nandini and looks at baby in her hand and immediately thought of their own baby.

His trance was broken when he heard Cabir's voice. He rolls his eyes and picking a pillow throw at Cabir who caught it and was about to open his mouth again but couldn't because Neyoinka stopped him.

Neyoinka: leave him cabir. Raj please call the Pandit ji ask when is he coming. We will do the preparation till he arrives.

Raj nodded his head and called their pandit ji who hasn't far away from the mansion. The ladies of the mansion stood up expect Navya who held the baby and went to temple side and starts preparing.

Navya : Manik do you want hold the baby? Look even baby is staring at your face. Hold him.

Manik looks at Navya and shakes his head but seeing
Nandini coming towards him he nodded his head and carefully took the baby in his arms and stares his face who looked at him and burst into tears.

Cabir : what the heck Manik? You made him cry. You don't even know how to handle a baby.

Navya took the baby and starts cooing baby in her arms and looks at Nandini who smiles at her as she sat beside Manik and took the baby from Navya.

Nandini : Manik why are you being scared of him? He won't harm you. Hold him again but try not to scare him. It's okay he will get habitual of you.

Manik: no sunshine. I haven't held a newborn baby for years. The last I held was Mukti when she was born. He will cry. Leave it.

Nandini : he won't cry. Hold him again.

Manik sighs and took baby in his arms and stares his face before smiling at him who stopped crying and stares Manik's face. The rest looked at them and smiled knowing seeing the Manik being soft with the baby. Manik starts playing with baby.

They all sat around temple when the pandit ji arrive and starts doing the Pooja for the newborn baby and the new parents. Nandini glances at Manik who hasn't stopped smiling and staring at the baby.

Her heart flutters up as she recalls the moment when she watched him playing with newborn baby and couldn't stop imagining him playing with their own baby like this in future.

Her thoughts were broken when the pandit ji asked the Navya and Cabir about the name for the baby. Cabir and Navya looks at each other before asking Mukti, Alya and Nandini to name their baby.

The girls looks at each other and smiled before discussing the name and looking at couples made the announcement making everyone smile.

Navya looks at her baby boy who she held closer to her chest and his small smile made her heart melt. Kissing his head softly she whispers.

Navya : Akash. My little Akash.

They all smiled with happiness and joy beaming over their faces as they looked Akash.

After the Pooja everyone went to back to living room and the youngster starts fighting over each other to hold Akash who was sleeping peacefully in Manik's arms.

Cabir : why are you fighting over my son? Go and make your own babies. You all grown up and have a partner. Have your own babies stop disturbing my baby sleep.

He took sleeping Akash in his arms and cooed him and glares his friends who starts cursing him. He shakes his head and looks at Manik before opening his mouth and teasing his best friend.

Cabir: Mukti you are two young to have a baby so is Alya so why won't you ask Manik to give you another baby in the mansion. He is married and came back...

His words were cut off when Manik stood up and was about to attack him. Beside Mukti Nandini's eyes widened hearing cabir and blushed feeing goosebumps all over her body.

The elder and his friends burst out of laughing seeing the newly couple embarrassed and blushing mere menthol of having their baby.
