Manik look at the sky and give a flying kiss than showing his engagement ring and shouted...

Manik: This is for you Nandini... I love you Nandini and Naisha...

Paas aaye
Dooriyaan phir bhi kam naa hui
Ek adhuri si hamari kahani rahi
Aasmaan ko zameen, ye zaroori nahi
Jaa mile... jaa mile
Ishq saccha wahi
Jisko milti nahi manzilein... manzilein

Manik remember their first meet at plane and how Nandini thought he is not Cricketer... He remember how she met his second family than the words they exchange with each other....

Rang thhe, noor tha
Jab kareeb tu tha
Ek jannat sa tha, yeh jahaan
Waqt ki ret pe kuch mere naam sa
Likh ke chhod gaya tu kahaan

Nandini (small smile): Pheli mulakat mai do anjaan log kaha dost bante... (Two strangers can't become friends in first meet..)

Manik (smile): Pheli mulakat mai do anjaan log bohat kuch baan jaate hai... (The first meeting may be two unknown people go a long way...)

Hamari adhuri kahani

Chalte chalte dekho na hum kahaan aa gaye

Nandini: I want you to MOVE ON if something happens to me....

Manik (taking deep breath): I just want you as My Wife... I like you Nandini and I want to fall in love with you ONLY.... I'm falling for You...

Jannatein agar yahin
Tu dikhe kyun nahin
Chaand suraj sabhi hai yahaan
Intezar tera sadiyon se kar raha
Pyaasi baithi hai kab se yahaan

Nandini: Manik I like you too and maybe Being in love with you but I don't want to stop your life....

Hamari adhuri kahaani
Hamari adhuri kahaani

Manik: I promise I will not stop living my life Nandini but I will never have any other woman other than you....

Pyaas ka ye safar khatam ho jayega
Kuch adhura sa jo tha poora ho jayega

Manik remember their Roka day when Nandini given her number to Manik with that eyeliner on his arm...

Jhuk gaya aasmaan
Mill gaye do jahaan
Har taraf hai milan ka samaa
Doliya hain saji
Khushbuein har kahin
Padhne aaya Khuda khud yahaan

Manik: Nandini Murthy will you make me the most happiest person by letting me make you wear your engagement ring?

Nandini: If you can get on your knees than why can't I... Manik Malhotra can I make you wear your engagement ring making you my fiance?

Hey guys I hope you enjoy reading this story and yeah I know that the end was the most you all cry and become angry also... But guys think about it everytime the story having a happy ending is not possible...

Sometimes some stories have sad ending also and you all know Nandini was in army and not every army person comes back whenever they go...

The end was meant to be like this for this story... Manik and Nandini didn't live together but still they are together...

MaNan is Forever Humesha even though not being together but still together...
