Nandini was busy in kitchen and Manik was
still beside pool side. He was much relaxed
now and was busy in composing some new
symphonies. Nandini was time to time
looking at him from kitchen window wether
he was ok or not? Manik was very well
knew of her gaze which was very much
comfortable for him. Suddenly two tiny
hands palmed his eyes and he smiled
knowing that his doll was back. Although
Manik was sitting on the floor but still Manvi
was standing on her toes to reach his eyes.
"Guess who?"She exclaimed and Cabir sat
beside Manik. ManBir smiled on her
cuteness.
"Umm..!! I don't know..!! Kon aa
gya?"Manik acted like he didn't knew
anything. Manvi laughed excitedly and came
in front of him.
"Booohh..!!"She tried to scare Manik and he
acted like he was really scared. Manvi again
laughed loudly at her success that she
succeeded. "Papa haal (haar) gye..!! Mano
jeet gai..!!"Manvi shouted excitedly. She
clapped and jumped on her place. ManBir
too clapped for her to appreciate and now
her face was glowing with victory.
"Acha..!! Idar aoa na
Papa kay pass..!!"Manik said lovingly and
pull her in his lap. She hugged Manik and
kissed his cheek. "Mery baby nay
kya kya kiya?"Manik asked caressing her
cheek.
"Ap ko pta hai Papa..!! Me
and Cabeel Chacho went to zoo..!! Wahan
itnyyy shary(sary) animals thay..!!"She told
Manik and stretched her arms to emphasize
that they really saw so many animals.
"Acha?"Manik asked lovingly.
"G..!! And wahan we saw cage of donteys..!!
And Cabeel Chacho is saying that those
were monteys..!!"Once again Manvi was
back on that fight.
"Manik..!! Main sachi bool raha hoon..!! Wo
monkeys ka cage tha...!!"Cabir said sadly
and Manik understood that Cabir was right
but how could he let his daughter down.
"Oye Cabir..!! Jab meri princess bool rahi
hai kay wo donkeys thay tou wo donkeys he
thy..!!"Manik said angrily and the smile on
Manvi's face was priceless. She clinged to
Manik and showed her tongue to Cabir.
Cabir acted like he was scared. Manik
winked at Cabir and he winked back. Manvi
was about to say something when Nandini
came with the juices for all. She put the tray
on the table.
"Mama ki jaan aa gai?"Nandini said and sat
beside Manik. Manvi hopped in her arms
and hugged her tightly. Nandini gave the
juice glasses to ManBir and one glass to
Manvi. All were talking and laughing
together when suddenly Manik noticed
Manvi's cheek which was painted. It was all
red now. He put the glass back in tray and
leaned closer to see her cheek.
"Nandini..!! Look na..!! Her cheek is
red..!!"Manik said worriedly. CabiNi too look
at her cheek.
"Oh God..!! I didn't noticed it..!! Manvi is
allergic with this face painting and
all..!!"Suddenly Nandini panicked and Manik
felt his heart stopped beating. He can't bear
a little scratch on his love and here her
whole cheek was red. Cabir became
embarrass.
"Sorry..!! I didn't knew it..!! Warna
main kbhi bhi face painting na
karwata..!!"Cabir said in a low voice.
"It's ok Cabir..!!"Manik said smilingly.
"Chalo doctor kay pass..!!"Manik said and
picked up Manvi in his arms.
"Papa it's paining..!!"Now it was hurting
Manvi.
"Abhi hum doctor kay pass jayen gay na then
everything will be fine..!!"Manik said
running towards his car while Cabini too
followed him. They all reached to doctor in
no time.
"So..!! What's the matter with this sweet
girl..!!"Doctor asked smilingly as Manvi was
sitting in Manik's lap. While Cabini were
standing beside Manik.
"Doctor..!! Wo actually my daughter is
allergic with this face painting..!! But we
forgot..!! Ab usy allergy ho gai hai..!! We
need your help..!!"Manik explained and tried
his best to keep himself calm.
"No worries Mr.Malhotra..!! Bachon ki
skin bohat sensitive hoti hai it happens..!! I
will write prescription..!! Just take care of
your doll..!!"Doctor said smilingly. Doctor
was about to write prescription but to fill the
prescription paper he must be known of the
girl's name so he turned towards Manvi.
"What's your name sweet heart..!!"Doctor
asked patting her cheek.
"Manvi Malhotra..!! Mama mjy Mano bulati
hain..!! Papa jaan bulaty hain
and Cabeel Chacho baby doll..!! Aul(aur) I
am Papa's stlong(strong) baby..!! "She
explained in a serious tone and Doctor
smiled. MaNanBir in spite of tension smiled.
After buying medicine MaNanBir came back
home.
"Meri princess nay khana khaya?"Manik
asked sitting on the dining table for
lunch with Manvi in his lap. Cabir too sat
beside him.
"Bhai bola tha teri princess ko kha lay khana
but she said no Mama Papa sath kahaon
ge..!!"Cabir said laughingly and Manvi made
a face. Nandini served the food to three of
them. Manik feed Manvi and she kept
munching quietly. While MaNanBir were
talking to each other.
"I must say Nandini..!! Tum khana aj bhi
utna he acha bnati ho..!!"Cabir said
smilingly.
"Thanks Cabir..!! Ya sweet dish try karo
na?"Nandini too replied smilingly and
offered him the sweet dish. Manvi was
sleepily rubbing her eyes now. Nandini
noticed it and picked up Manvi from
Manik's lap to make her sleep. Moreover she
had to apply the medicine on her cheek.
"Mano..! Thora dard ho ga..!!"Nandini said
applying medicine on Manvi's cheek. After
applying medicine Nandini cuddled Manvi in
her arms and she instantly dozed off.
Nandini tucked her carefully in bed and
came out after switching off the light.
ManBir were sitting in the lounge.
"So gai?"Manik asked as Nandini sat beside
him.
"Haan..!! Thak gai the..!"Nandini too replied
smilingly.
"Phr kaisa raha Nayonika say face
off..!!"Cabir said smilingly.
"Cabir..!! Let's just not talk about this
please..!!"Manik said sadly.
"Ok Bro..!!"Cabir said patting his shoulder.
They kept talking to each other after
sometime Cabir left. And MaNan too went in
their room for a nap.
