Will you be my moon?
I'll be your night forever.

In the dark cell of Mumbai's jail, Aryaman was sitting lost in his thoughts. It has been a week to the incident when he was arrested and there is no clue of his father. He had asked the constables there to let him make a phone call but his request went to deaf ears everytime. But still the son in him trusted his father. He thought maybe his father was planning something big to take revenge from Manik and that's why he has not come to meet him yet. His thoughts were broken by the sound of the door opening. A constable came there making him stand up.

"Chal, teri bail ho gayi hai." Said the constable in a bored tone.

Aryaman's happiness knew no boundaries. He literally controlled himself from dancing in front of the constable. He was happy to be financially out of the prison but more than that he was happy to see his father after almost a week. He happily moved with the constable to complete some formalities. He was told that the person who has requested his bail is waiting outside the main gate of the prison for him. He changed out of his uniform and quickly moved outside the prison premises. A black mercedes was standing there in all its glory. The backdoor opened. He expected his father to come out but instead an elegant foot of a lady wearing branded wedges came out of the car. Soon enough the lady herself got out. He was stunned to see the lady. She must be in her mid 40s he thought. She had an angelic face. A face that can attract any man towards herself. But he felt a connection with her. A sudden wave of feeling hit him hard by looking at her. She smiled at him and walked to him.

"Who are you and where is my dad?" Aryaman asked straight.

"Well I can answer your first question but I'm afraid I don't have the answer to your second question." She said in a melodious voice.

He frowned listening to her.

"I'm Shravani Sinha." She exclaimed with a bright smile.

Shravani Sinha: A beautiful and elegant woman. Has the most loving and selfless personality. 52 years old but looks around 10 years younger to her age. Lives in California. Has a Bakery there. Rarely visits India.

"Do I know you?" Aryaman asked.

"No you don't. All thanks to your father. But I know you." She said.

His frown deepened.

"Meri bail kyu karayi aapne?" He again asked.

"Because I wanted to." She said with a smile again.

"Come on now sit in the car. Bohot saari baatein karni hai tumse." She said and sat in the car.

Aryaman didn't know what was happening but his heart told him to trust her. So he sat with her in the car.

Nandini came out of the washroom after changing in her night clothes. She saw Manik sitting on the bed and he was on a video call with someone. She neared him and heard Rishabh's voice from the phone. She got scared but not that much. Soon Manik realised her presence near him.

"Arey Princess you came. Come see Rishabh is on the video call. He proposed to his love. And she said yes." Manik said happily forwarding his hand for her to hold.

But she didn't take it. She didn't want to talk to anyone.

"Baby!" Manik called softly.

He kept the phone on bed and stood up to her. She was shivering a little. Rishabh could not see them but he could hear everything.

"Meri jaan!" Manik called her cupping her face.

She just hugged him tight, hiding her face in his chest. Manik wrapped his arms around her.

"Jaan calm down. I'm here with you and it's only Rishabh. Your Rishu. He is your brother baby. He would never even think about hurting you. Don't be scared love." He explained calmly to her by caressing her hair.

Her face was still buried inside his chest. Suddenly they heard a voice.

"Didu!" Rishabh said softly from the phone.

His one 'didu' created a havoc of emotions inside Nandini. She slowly pulled her face out of Manik's chest but did not come out of his arms.

"Didu how can you get scared of me? How can you even think that I'll ever hurt you? Aap toh meri jaan ho di. Aapse hi toh mai hu. Aap jante ho na aapse ek din baat nahi karta toh kaisa ho jata hu mai. Aur abhi toh aapne kitne dino se baat nahi kari mujhse. Please di..du. Ta..lk to m..e..." In the end his voice broke indicating that he was crying.

This was enough for Nandini to gain her composure. She came out of Manik's hold and picked up the phone. There she saw a crying Rishabh. Tears were flowing down his cheeks. He was crying like a baby.

"Rishu! Bachha stop crying. Didu is here only. " She said softly.

But Rishabh's cries intensified seeing his Di's face and listening to her voice after such a long time. Here Nandini's tears also came out seeing him cry. For her Rishabh is not her brother, he is her baby.

" Aap bohot bure ho di. " Rishabh said between his cries.

Both the siblings were crying continuously. Manik was just a silent spectator there. He wanted to give them some personal space so he went inside the washroom to change into his night clothes. When he came out after 10-15 minutes, he saw same scene. Both of them were still crying. He sighed and shook his head in disbelief. He went near bed and sat beside Nandini. He pulled her close to him by putting his arm around her shoulder.

"Ooo mere cry babies!! Aur kitna ro-oge? Bass karo. Itne din baad baat kar rahe ho. Talk happily. Achii achii baatein karo. Kya dono cry babies bankar baithe ho." He scolded them lightly.

"I'm not cry baby. He/she is." Both the siblings said together and then glared each other for calling each other cry baby.

"I'm not. You are." Both again said in union.

Manik tsked at them.

"Kuch nahi ho sakta dono ka. Chalo stop crying now. Champ wipe your tears." Manik said.

He himself wiped Nandini's tears.

The three talked for some more time. Rishabh told Nandini about his girlfriend and Nandini was really happy for him. Soon Manik and Nandini bid adieu to Rishabh. Manik kept his phone on the bedside table and laid down on the bed cuddling to Nandini.

"Thankyou." He heard her mumbling against his chest.

"For what?" He asked caressing her cheek.

"I know yeh aapka plan tha to make me talk to Rishu." She said lifting her face from his chest to look at him.

"Ab aap baat hi nahi kar rahe the kisise aur aapka bhai mujhe pagal kar raha tha toh mujhe yeh karna hi pada." He said with a teasing smile.

She frowned.

"First of all aap already pagal ho and second don't put the blame on my baby. He's innocent." She said squinting her eyes at him.

He swiftly changed their position and hovered on her. She gasped at the sudden movement. He brought his face deadly close to her. Their nose was touching. Her breathing accelerated due to the proximity. He smirked seeing his effect on her.

"First of all, Haa hum pagal hai lekin sirf aapke pyaar me! And secondly, agar Rishabh is your baby then who am I?" He said.

"Aap?" She asked in a daze.

"Haa Mai." He said kissing her cheeks.

"Aap toh..." She said closing her eyes.

"Mai toh..." He repeated her answer kissing her neck.

"Aap toh meri..." She said in almost a moan.

"Mai toh aapki..." He said kissing her throat.

"Aap toh meri ruh ho." She finally completed her sentence making him look at her with so many emotions.

He didn't try to hide them. He wanted her to read them which she very easily did.

"Aap bhi." He said and slowly kept his lips on hers.
