Manan Shining Star

Chapter 20

Soha entered maria room wearing saree inorder to impress manik
On seeing Soha entering the room maria hugged manik tightly from his waist n hid her face in his stomach n was making her grip tight with her small hand for not letting her papa go anywhere.

On seeing Maria like this Manik got suspicions n looked at Soha.

Soha: manik  u r here I was searching u from when I almost look around the whole mansion
She said in her sugarily tone

Manik just ignored her right now his princess was more important for him n he wanted to know the reason of her strange behaviour n why was she so scared n of what

Soha on not getting any reply continued : anyways I will make coffee n come for u

She said while flaunting her saree to draw manik attention but he didn't even notice

Man: no need

Soha: but

Manik glared at her,he somewhat knew the reason of his baby weird behaviour is this lady only
He thought he should have not trusted her n kept his princess alone with her

But yet he was not sure
He had to confront her n know the truth as he can't blame her directly

Soha on not getting any reply continued

Soha: acha fine waise how m i looking in this saree I brought it yesterday only

Just then simran entered with bowl of cold water n cotton cloth

Manik gestured her to keep it on the bed near him

He took the duvet n put on maria

He kissed her temple n she turned her head to see him . He smiled n moved her face to faced him n kept his hand on her forhead.
He dipped the cloth in water n put it on her forhead with his other hand n kissed her cheeks on which she just stared at his face.

Simran: Sir what happened to baby??

Simran asked as she was worried she knew that the little one had cried alot from yesterday n had even vomitted all what she had eaten.
She was scared if Manik came to know all this then he won't spare her because he had strictly instructed her to inform him about maria each n everything when she is at home without him around which would rather be rarely

Man: she is having fever

Soha was just seeing this all she was angry because manik was ignorning her to the fullest as if she didn't exist in the room.

She was feeling frustrated as she had taken so much effort to wear stupid sari inorder to impress him but he just ignorned her.

Soha: control ur anger soha orelse u will spoil all ur work just relax
She said to herself n took a deep breathe

Soha: manik I wore this for u n u didn't even notice me once
She said

Manik was busy changing the cloth from maria forhead.
Till now she had gone to sleep holding her papa fingers securely on his lap

Manik didn't ans anything
He kept on caressing maria cheeks n changing cloth he was scared by the little one's behaviour not even once she had smiled seeing him today

Soha: manik i m talking to u
She said this time abit loud

Manik was now hell frustrated he was trying to avoid her n she was pissing him up

Man: what's wrong with u rather than asking what happened to maria you r asking me about ur stupid make over like seriously r u nut what

Soha felt insulted usually men always complimented her n fall for her charm n here manik was avoiding her infact he didn't even once looked up at her

Just then doctor shivani entered with ramu kaka

Manik saw her n put maria on the pillow n got up

Doctor shivani was manik's family doctor n knew him from when he was little one she was in her 50's
She knew manik every well

She came in n sat on the bed next to maria
She examined maria
Manik stood next to her near the bed looking at his angel face.

She looked up at manik n asked

Dr shivani: what is the last thing she ate ???

Manik looked up at soha

Man: soha what maria ate yesterday? ?

Soha didn't even knew this much she just stared back at him

Man: what ans me ???

Soha pretended  to recollect n said

Soha: pasta n garlic bread
( which was a lie)

Simran starred at soha

Man: garlic bread ???

Maria never had eaten garlic bread she had tasted it once n didn't liked it manik knew this

Manik stared at her

Man: r u sure ??

Simran spoke up

Sim: no sir baby had eaten curd n rice

Man: soha u said u had made her have dinner so u didn't even know this much
Manik said angrily

Dr shivani looked at simran:  did she eat properly coz she seem very weak

Sim: yup but she had vomitted all her food

Manik was shocked to hear this

Man: what ???

Manik starred at Soha angrily
Soha was now hell scared she knew now she will get caught n manik will for sure dig her grave today

Man: what the hell why didn't u inform me all this. I had very well told u to inform me everything when i m not near maria.

Simran just looked at soha

Soha looked at her angrily n gestured her to keep quite

Manik saw this n starred at her

He thought of dealing with her afterwards as maria was more important now

Man: doctor shivani will she b kk ??
