Beep.. Beep.. Beep..

A beeping sound of machine can be heard. Doctor was checking the patient while someone stood there worried. The patient was given saline water and injection. Doctor turned and sighed.

"He has fainted due to the excess stress and shock. Seems like he is too much disturbed. His blood pressure also dropped down. I have given him sedatives. He should have a good sleep to rest his mind. He will be up after 3 to 4 hours." Said the doctor.

"Nothing to worry, right? Manik is fine na? Nothing major?"

"No, Mr. Dhawan. He's absolutely fine. Just need some rest. But keep a check on him. Don't let him stress." Said doctor on which Cabir nodded. Doctor left. Cabir sat beside Manik on the chair and held his head. Silent tears flew down his eyes. Everything was messed up in just few hours.

Cabir along with some of police were waiting for Manik outside while others took Harshad away. But when he didn't come out taking Nandini, they got tensed and rushed in. They were shocked to see Manik fainted on floor while holding Nandini near to his heart. They immediately rushed both of them to the hospital. Nandini was taken towards the operation theater immediately while Manik was being checked by the doctor. Nandini lost so much blood and doctors feared for the worst. They assured Cabir to try their best.

Cabir stood up from his place and went out. Moving near operation theatre he stood there praying for Nandini.

"Please be safe, bhabhi. Manik needs you. He won't be able to bear your loss. We will loose him forever. Please fight for him. For your love. Like you always did. You're strong, bhabhi! You defeated that jerkshad. You can defeat this injury too. Just please be fine. Please." Thought Cabir looking towards the operation theater. He could see the rush in between. Nurses are constantly running out and in. He tried to ask once but the reply wasn't something pleasant.

"How..how is she? Is everything okay?"

"We can't say anything right now. Blood loss is severe. We are arranging the blood. Condition is very critical. Please excuse." Saying this nurse ran inside. Cabir ran his hand though hairs. What's happening in their life?

"Manik, I.. I know.. I lied to you. Hided things. But trust me, I never faked anything. I.. I didn't let him do anything wrong with us. He needed Money which I provided. Just because I wanted us to be at peace. Trust me Manik.. please.."

"Noooo.. Noooo! Please Manik! Don't leave me. I don't have anyone except you. Main.. main kaha jaungi? Please.. Manik.. I can't live without you."

"Ma.. Manik please. Don't do this. Please listen to me. I will make everything fine. Please you.. I.. I.. can't live Manik.. I will die.. I will die Manik.."

"Nooo! I won't go leaving you. Main aapko chodke nahi jaungi.."

"Swear on Aiyyappa, Manik! I never wanted this. I never faked my care for you. My love was not an act. It wasn't any trap. Yes. I love you Manik! Apni jaan se bhi jyaada pyaar karti hu aapse."

"Manik, maine yeh sab jaan boojhkar nahi kiya tha. I was being pressurized."

"Please, don't snatch my love from me. Be safe for me, Manik. I won't be able to live if something happens to you. Mar jaungi main! Jaiye yahase please I beg you."

"You.. you would live ha..happy.. without me. Khush rahenge aap, mere bina.. Manik."

"No! Manik don't! It's a trap. He will kill you. Please don't come. I beg you."

"You don't have to be guilty. It wasn't your fault. Never."

"Ma..Manikkk.. I am.. happy.. that I did this.. you.. you know na.. I.. I couldn't save my family.. but.. but.. I could.. I could atleast.. protect you.. It's.. my.. privilege.. to die.. in my love's arms.."

"I.. I.. want to fee..feel you.. very.. close.. one.. one last time... Please.."

"I.. I love you.. too.. Manik.. Humesha.."

"Manik!"

NANDINIIIIIIIIIIII

Manik opened his eyes with a jerk while shouting her name as he dreamt about how she got shot. He was sweating badly while breathing hard. He looked around frantically but frowned. What is he doing in hospital? And wait.. Where's Nandini? Is she okay? His eyes were shedding tears remembering what happened few hours back.

He was about to remove the drip when door opened and Cabir came inside hurriedly.

"Manik! Are you okay? Why did you shout?" Asked Cabir worriedly. Manik shook his head.

"I am fine Cabir. But main yaha? Aur.. Nandini? Where's she? Kaha hai voh? Voh.. voh.. theek hai na? Haan? She was so much hurt.. so much blood.. she.. voh.. 2 bullets.. Cabir.. how.. main.." Manik broke into loud sobs. Cabir took him in a hug while Manik cried hugging him tight.

"Mujhe uske paas le chalo, Cabir.. please.. I wanna see her." Said Manik breaking the hug. Cabir was reluctant.

"But Manik, doctor said you need to rest-"

"How the fuck I would rest when my life is lying there? How Cabir?" Manik shouted as tears flow down from his eyes. Cabir rubbed his back.

"Ok fine. Calm down. We will go. Relax. Just don't stress yourself." Said Cabir and slowly removed his drip. Manik stood up with the help of Cabir and both moved out of the room.

They reached near the operation theatre. Operation was still going on. It's been three hours. Manik looked at Cabir who shook his head.

"They are not saying anything. Operation is still going on. Situation is critical." He answered to his unasked question. Manik sat on the nearby bench with a thud. He closed his eyes and Nandini's giggles, her cute antics flashed infront of him. He smiled seeing her face.

"Aapke baal.. it's so messy."

"You're looking funny but it's okay. It suits you. Soooo cute."

Rukh jindagi ne
Mod liya kaisa
Hamne socha
Nahi tha kabhi aisa..

"Manik.. haha! Nooo! Stoppp! Please.. Mani.kkk!! Hahaha.."

"You're very bad. I am not talking to you."

Rukh jindagi ne
Mod liya kaisa
Hamne socha
Nahi tha kabhi aisa..

"Haha! Manik! Bilkul bachhe ho aap."

"Maaniiikkk! Chediye nahi!"

Aata nahi yakin
Kya se kya ho gaya
Kis tarah mai tumase
Bewafa ho gaya..

"You never have to ask for my permission. Nandini is always yours. And will be only yours. Till her last breathe."

"I will always pray to aiyyappa to grant every wish of yours."

Insaaf kar do
Mujhe maaf kar do
Itna hi kar do karam..

"I will shine for you, Manik. Humesha."

"How did I get so lucky to have you in my life, Manik?"

"Manik.. main thik hu. Aap please tension nahi le.."

"Ewww Manik! Medicine!!! Voh kitni kadvi hoti hai. Mujhe nei khani. See I am all fine."

"Manik mat dijiye naa.. mujhe achha nei lagta.."

Dil de diya hai jaan tumhe denge
Daga nahi karenge sanam..
Ho… rab di kasam
Yaara rab di kasam..

Manik sobbed covering his face with his hands while remembering their moments. Cabir was looking at him with moist eyes. He kept hand on his shoulder.

Mere ashk keh rahe meri kahani
Inhein samjho na tum sirf pani..

"Mr. Malhotra.."

"Doctor.. how's Nandini? She's fine right? Theek hai na voh? Why are you quiet damn it! Say something!" Manik shouted. Cabir held him back.

"We removed the bullets, Mr. Malhotra. But there was a heavy blood loss. Bleeding wasn't stopping. Somehow we managed to stop it. Thankfully, her blood group was available in our hospital. We had done everything which is in our control. But her body isn't responding to our treatment. Next 24 hours are very critical. If she doesn't get her conscious back till then, we may loose her. Also, her wound on stomach is too deep. Uterus is badly affected. She won't be able to conceive in future. Pray for her. It's all upto him now." Said doctor looking up indicating towards God.

Mere ashk keh rahe meri kahani
Inhein samjho na tum sirf pani..

Manik stumbled back hearing the doctor while Cabir held him.

"We are shifting her in ICU. You can meet her. Just do not disturb." Saying this doctor went away leaving a devastated Manik behind.

Ro ro ke aansuo ke
Daag dhul jaayenge
Inn me wafa ke rang
Aaj ghul jaayenge..

"Manik.. sambhal khudko. Nothing will happen to bhabhi. You have to be strong okay? Kuch nahi hoga unhe. Tu sunn raha hai na? Are you listening, Manik?" Cabir kept consoling Manik but he was drowned in his own misery.

Soon, Nandini was shifted to ICU. Manik moved towards the room and held the nob. Taking a sharp breathe, he opened the door. His all courage came crushing down seeing the scene infront of him.

His Nandini was lying lifelessly on the bed with lots of wires attached to her body. Her face pale.

Paas tum rahogi
Bhul abb na hogi
karunga na tumpe sitam..

He slowly moved towards her and with his shivering hand, caressed her cheek a little. Like always, she didn't lean into his touch today. He gulped hardly. Suddenly he remembered something and his expressions changed to horror and then angry. He immediately shouted for doctor.

"Doctor... Doctor..."

Dil de diya hai jaan tumhe denge
Daga nahi karenge sanam..

"What the hell is this? Yeh.. yeh sab kya hai hai? Why these wires and this needle... You.. you injected her? How dare you hurt her?" Manik yelled furiously while holding the collar of doctor. Cabir tried to pull him back.

"Mr. Malhotraa..."

"Manik.. leave him. What's wrong with you! Manik leaveee..."

Ho… rab di kasam
Yaara rab di kasam..

"No no no.. I don't want any injection. Mujhe bahot darr lagta hai Manik. I am so scared of needles. I.. I can't even watch anyone getting it. I don't wanna take it please please. Aap mujhe injection mat lagvao."

"Manik.. aap na.. kabhi bhi mujhe injection nahi lagvana. Main na.. I.. I am very very scared of them. Mujhe darr lagta hai. You na.. you don't ever let anyone inject me. Never ever. Aap.. aap nahi karne doge na?"

Dil de diya hai jaan tumhe denge
Daga nahi karenge sanam..

Manik looked at Nandini for a second and dragged the doctor out of ICU. Cabir ran behind.

"Manik, leave him. Let him go."

"No! Ask him to remove all those needles and wires. Meri Nandini ko pain ho raha hai. Nikalo sab kuch abhi ke abhi! She can't handle all that. Tell him!"

"Manik! We can not do that!"

"Mr. Malhotra please try to understand. We can't remove it. It's for her good."

"Shut up! I know you're doing it deliberately. You wanna hurt her right? Sab.. sab usko hurt karna chahte hai. I knew it. But I won't let you do it. I promised her. Main kisi ko bhi usey hurt karne nei dunga. Never ever." Said Manik and left the doctor with a jerk.

"Main kabhi kisi ko meri jaan ko hurt karne dunga bhala? I will not let anyone even touch my sweetheart. Injection toh durr ki baat."

"I trust you, Manik.. I know you will never let anyone hurt me."

"Never, sweetheart. Never ever. Your Manik will protect you with all his life. Humesha.."

"Are you insane, Manik? What are you even talking? They aren't hurting her but saving her life. Get a grip on yourself." Cabir shook Manik hard holding his shoulders. Doctor looked at him with a sympathetic eyes and left from there silently.

"Cabir.. you don't know. N-Nandini na.. she.. she is very scared of needles. Voh.. voh yeh sab nei dekh sakti. Dar jayegi voh yeh sab dekhkar. She will get scared. This.. all.. remove it! Cabir.. you know.. I... I promised her that I won't let anyone inject her.. maine vaada kiya tha.. inse bol na.. yeh sab nikale.. meri nandini.. darr jayegi.. she will freak out. She will cry. It must be paining her.. you.. you tell them na.. bolo na inhe.. Cabir.. meri Nandini... she is so fragile.. voh bahot jaldi darr jati hai.. tell them naa.. she.. will cry.. voh.. sab hatao.. usey pa..in.. hoga.. " Manik cried infront of Cabir and sat down on his knees loosing the balance. Cabir immediately sat beside him and held him. Manik broke down badly. Cabir was crying too seeing his buddy so vulnerable. Why God had to be so cruel with them?

"Ca..Cabirr.. I... I.. failed.. I failed.. her.. meri Nandini.. she.. she trusted me.. so much.. but see.. what did I do.. I.. I couldn't able to.. to protect.. her.. infact.. infact she.. she protected.. me.. that bullets.. those were for me.. mere liye thi voh... But she came in .between... Be.. Because of me.. she's hanging in between.. life and death... You.. you were right.. Cabir.. I should've listen to her.. that day... If I didn't ask.. her to go.. she.. aaj yeh sab nei hua hota... Sab meri galti hai, Cabir... I am.. responsible for all this.. she's suffering because of my impulsiveness.. It's all my.. fault.. all my.." Manik sobbed hard pulling his hairs. Cabir wiped his own tears and held him.

"Manik.. Manik you need to calm down okay? You can't stress yourself. Or you want to lay on hospital bed too when bhabhi needs you the most? Haan? So just gather yourself for her. You can't loose hope. Nothing will happen to her. Trust your love. Bhabhi is strong. She is gonna make it. She will fight back. For you. You just have to encourage her. You have to be with her as her strong pillar. If you would be like this, then how will bhabhi fight back? So come on, now.. enough of all this. Jo hogaya so hogaya. We can't change the past. But we can change the future and present. So just calm down. Relax. Hmm?" Cabir consoled him. Manik calmed down a little and nodded his head. Cabir helped him to get up. Manik looked at the door of ICU while Cabir squeezed his hand in assurance. Manik looked at him and then again went inside. Cabir sighed sitting on nearby chair and closed his eyes throwing his head back.

__________________________

"Manik, when you said na.. you don't want me in your life anymore, you want me to go away and never return back; I.. I felt as if someone asked me to give my heart. I just.. felt I will die any moment. You.. Manik.. you become my whole world. I.. I thought.. you would hear me.. once. Only once."

Manik sat near Nandini on a chair and took her hand in his carefully not hurting her. He placed a kiss on it. He was remembering her each and every words which was makinghim feel guiltier and angry over himself. He was feeling like dieing.

"It hurts so much Manik. It's still hurting. Why me, Manik? Why always me? I.. Manik.. mere na bahot chote sapne the. Very small yet beautiful. I wished to have my own small happy family. Aapke saath. You, me and our small little world. Our Humesha. But see, Aiyyappa didn't want it to happen. Infact, now I think he never wanted my happiness. Shayad I was born to suffer. All alone."

His tears fell on her palm and he shook his head.

"Nahi Nandini. You're not alone. You have me. Your Manik. I am never leaving you sweetheart. Main apni galti fir nahi dohraunga. I am always with you. Just open your eyes and see." Said Manik with shivering voice.

"You asked me to go away from your life. I.. I am completing your wish. Iss baar aapko shikayat ka mauka nahi dungi, Manik. I will never come back in your life. Always stay happy. And if possible, move on from me. Marry someone who deserve you. You're a gem, Manik. My precious gem. Main chahe jaha bhi jaun, you will always be there in my prayers. Humesha."

A sob escaped his mouth and he cried holding her hand close to his heart.

"I never meant whatever I said, Nandini. I need you in my life. Don't go away leaving your Manik. Don't punish me like this. I will die. Please come back sweetheart."

"I am not impure, Manik. Nandini was always yours, she is still yours and she will be always yours. Till her last breathe. I love you. Humesha and forever."

Manik caressed her hairs tenderly and kissed on her forehead.

"I know sweetheart. I know. My Nandini is the purest soul. I was such a bastard. I.. couldn't understand your worth. Maaf kardo mujhe. I love you too, baby. Always. I am all yours just like you are mine. Forever. I can't imagine my life without you, Nandini."

"Hereafter, I won't trouble you. Never ever."

Manik joined their foreheads and weep silently. His tears falling on her eyes wetting them.

"Nahi meri jaan! Don't. I want you to trouble me forever. I want you to scold me, to tease me, to crib over something, to show tantrums, to blush for me, to care for me, to make my favourite yummy food, to get angry on me, to love me like you always do. I want you to do everything, sweetheart. Enough of your silence. Please wake up. Mujhe meri Nandini lauta do. Please.. your Manik is incomplete without you." Said Manik. His eyes were closed and he failed to noticed the movement of her eyeballs and fingers.

Slowly he wiped his tears and stood up from there. He was about to move out when he felt strong grip on his hand. His breathe stucked in his throat. Turning around immediately he saw Nandini holding his hand tightly and trying to open her eyes. A wide smile came on his lips and he hastily moved towards her.

"Nandini.. Nandini.. open your eyes. Yes. Open it slowly, sweetheart." Said Manik cupping her face with his one hand while another hand was gripped by her. He was smiling with tears.

Nandini opened her eyes slowly and blinked several times to get clear view. Manik laughed with tears.

"Nan-dini.."

"M..M..Ma..ni...k.."

"Sshh. Don't. Don't say anything okay. Just.. just relax. Hmm? Everything is fine. You're fine. Just shhh." Said Manik shushing her. Nandini gave him smile. Manik cried looking at her on which she nodded in no.

"N.. no.. cr..y.."

"Yes yes. I am not crying okay. See, I am all smiling. I am very happy because my sweetheart is back. For me." Said Manik squeezing his eyes trying to stop his cries while smiling.

Nandini slowly raised her hand indicating him to come near her. Manik immediately went and hugged her taking care of her injury. He sobbed in her neck like a baby. Nandini slowly caressed his hairs with tears.

"Ma..nik.. shhh.."

"I almost died, Nandini.. you.. you were lying there.. so much blood.. I.. I thought.. I lost.. you..." Nandini's tears started falling.

"I.. am fine.."

"Main mar jata, Nandini. I would have seriously died. Please.. please never.. ever pull this stunt on me... I.. I can't live without you.. you're my breathe."

"I.. won't.. I love you, ma..manik.."

"I love you too, meri jaan. I love you so so much." Said Manik and broke the hug. He looked at her who was looking at him with a longing. He rubbed her cheek with his thumb.

"I told you, that wasn't our last one." Saying this he gently sucked her lips and kissed her smoothly. Nandini closed her eyes happily giving in.

Finally they are back together. They will explore their humesha with each other.

_________________________

Three years later..

"Nandini.. Jaan hurry up. We have to leave no? Everyone are waiting down. Party abhi shuru hogi.." Said Manik coming inside their room.

Nandini who was getting ready turned towards him and glared.

"Manik! Don't hurry me now. It's all because of you we are getting late. So don't blame me."

"Arey! What did I do?"

"What did you do? Who asked you to play in the water with your little devil. Aur toh aur, mujhe bhi khich liya. I had to get ready again. All because of you and this laadli of yours. Always trouble me." Said Nandini pointing towards the baby girl who was sitting on their bed wearing a princess frock of pink colour. She pouted seeing her mumma glaring at her. She looked at her Dadda and raised her hands.

"Ayyyeeeeee" she squealed her Dadda took her in his arms.

"Oyye! My princess isn't devil okay? Haan thodi masti karti hai but it's okay. If she won't do then who ha? Isn't it my baby.. mera pumpkin.. my rashgullaa.. hmm hmm.." Said Manik while rubbing his nose on hers tickling her while she giggled loudly. Nandini adored the father daughter duo. She cleared her throat to grab their attention. Manik looked at her along with their little pumpkin.

"No one loves me here. All forgot me." Said Nandini with a pout. Manik laughed and pulled her on his lap while holding their baby in another hand. Nandini gasped loudly.

"Manik! Miya is looking.."

"Haan toh? Let her also see. How much her mumma needs pampering?" Saying this he nuzzled in her neck while Miya clapped her hands giggling looking at her mumma and Dadda.

It's been three years since Manik and Nandini started their new beginning. Harshad was given death sentence as his crimes were severe. Everything was going smoothe when Nandini got to know that she can't be a mother. She was devastated. Manik tried his best to console and comfort her but no use. She was a woman. She had dreamt alot about being mother, carrying her child till nine moths, baby's birth and everything. Her dreams were shattered. She was very much depressed. This deteriorated her health and Manik got so much worried. After lots of thinking he decided to get Nandini treated for her problem. Nandini was happy and ready to do anything. Consulting with numerous doctors they finally got a ray of hope. Manik took Nandini to New York for her treatment. Nandini got treated over there and finally she was fit enough to conceive. When they got the news of her being pregnant, Nandini cried her life out in the happiness. Manik was on cloud nine. He pampered her to the most and cared for her like a glass doll. He fulfilled all her cravings and they enjoyed the phase together happily. When she was in labour, he was the one who cried the most seeing her in pain and Nandini had to console him even in that condition. After holding the little baby girl of theirs in his hand, his happiness had no bounds. Both of them were happy as their little world was completed now. Their 'Miya' completed it with her presence. Today, it was the third wedding anniversary of Manan and they were getting ready for the party.

"Haww Manik! I need pampering? Matlab kuch bhi. Main bachi thodi na hu."

"Bilkul bachhi hi ho. You are my baby who gets cranky if me and my princess don't give attention. Isn't it princess?" Teased Manik on which Miya squealed loudly as if agreeing with her Dadda. Nandini glared at him.

"In your dreams. I don't need your attention okay? I am very much fine on my own. Hatiye." Saying this Nandini slapped his hand away and stood up from his lap.

"Areyyy! Nandini..."

She went towards mirror and started to correct her saree with a cute frown adoring her face.
Manik looked at Miya and whispered in her ears.

"Mumma is angry. You wait here okay? Dadda will manaofy your mumma in his way. Be a good girl and do not disturb." Said Manik on which Miya kissed his cheek as if agreeing with him. Manik kissed her whole face happily and made her sit on bed properly.

Manik slowly encircled his hands around Nandini and pulled her to himself. Her back was touching his front. Nandini wriggled.

"Manik.. chodiye. Leave me. It's getting late. Everyone must be waiting."

"Haan toh! Let them wait. I want to spend some time with my loving wife."

"No no! Why so? She troubles you alot na? She's an attention seeker. Why you want to be with her then?"

"Hmmm.. baat toh sahi hai. She always troubles me. But you know what?"

"What?"

"I love to get troubled by her." Said Manik whispering in her ears huskily. Nandini shivered and blushed deeply.

"Manik please.. leave me na.."

"No ways. I am not leaving you. Never ever. You're mine. Only mine." Said Manik and started kissing her neck sensuously. Nandini closed her eyes and moaned feeling his touch.

"Mmm.. Manik.. aaah!"

Manik bit her earlobe and sucked it to soothe her pain. He turned Nandini towards himself and looked at her intensely. She circled her arms around his neck while he held her from her waist.

"Mr. Malhotra, aaj bada pyaar aa raha hain aapko. What's special hmm?" Asked Nandini Manik squeezed her waist. She gasped.

"Pyaar toh humesha aata hain, it's just you don't notice it. Such an unromantic biwi I got. Very boring." Teased Manik. Nandini's mouth hunged down.

"Manik! You na.. you are very bad. I am boring and unromantic? Fine. I will go away. Search a romantic wife for yourself and marry her. Huh! I won't trouble you anymore." Said Nandini but gasped suddenly as Manik pulled her harshly and started kissing her lips. He was being so wild and bit her lips hard. Nandini's lips bleed while she widened her eyes in shock. Manik broke the kiss after sometime. Both were breathing heavily. Nandini looked at him who was already looking at her with anger and pain.

"Manik-"

"Mrs. Nandini Manik Malhotra! Listen to me and listen to me good. You are bound to me forever. Till infinity. You're not allowed to go away from me neither I will let you go. Fit this in your pea sized brain and never utter this bullshit infront of me ever again." Warned Manik and jerked her hand away. Nandini mentally slapped herself for pulling the wrong chord and immediately held his hand stopping him.

"Manik.. Manik please listen. I didn't mean that. I am sorry please. Gussa mat ho." Manik didn't say anything just kept standing there silently. Nandini moved infront of him and cupped his face. Manik looked at her.

"I am so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. Galtise bol diya. Forgive your sweetheart." Said Nandini and held her ears at last pouting cutely. Manik sighed and nodded no pulling her in tight hug. Nandini hugged him back.

"Never ever say that. Your words.. I.. still remember everything, Nandini. I.. I can never forget that incident. Your those words send shivers down to my body. I can not loose you. Never." Said Manik with moist eyes. Nandini shook her head.

"You will never loose me, Manik. I am always with you. Humesha." Saying this she kissed on his both eyes. Then forehead. Then smooched his cheeks. Manik looked at her and touched her lips. Nandini hissed a little.

"Is it paining?" Nandini shook her head giggling.

"Thorasa. But it's a sweet pain given by my hubby dearest." She said.

Manik chuckled and cupped her face placing his lips on hers gently. He smooched her lips lovingly and sucked her bruised lips to soothe them. Nandini responded equally.

Suddenly they heard a loud cry and they broke the kiss.

"Princess"

"Shonaa"

Both of them immediately rushed to Miya who was crying forwarding her hands. Nandini took her in her arms and patted her back. Miya hided her face in her neck. Manik held her little hand in his from side.

"What happened to my shonaa hmm? Bhooki lagi hai meri jaan ko? Why my baby is crying? Say to mumma.." Nandini cooed her while talking to her in baby language. Soon enough Miya stopped crying and giggled. Manik sighed.

"Bilkul apni mumma par gayi hain. Cranky cry baby." Manik muttered. Nandini narrowed her eyes.

"Kuch kaha aapne?"

"Who? Mee? No no! I was about to say let's go down. It's already very late." Nandini nodded hearing him and making Miya and herself presentable, trio left downstairs.

Soon the party started. Everyone wished the couple. Manan cut the cake together with Miya and feed each other.

"Thank you so much for everything, Manik! You brightened my world." Said Nandini looking at him emotionally. Manik shook his head.

"It is our world. We complete each other, Nandini." He said.

"I love you."

"I love you too, my sweetheart."

The End.
