Manik is waiting for his naughty gang in the waiting area. He was fully engross in his phone. Other members of his family arrives at the same time and Searches for him...
Nyo(searching for him):manu kahan hai?
Akash:yahi kahi hoga....
Cabir(pointing him): there he is
Everyone find him busy in his mobile and settle in a place where they can't be seen by him. Their eyes are fixed on the pathway...
Abhi(chuckle):guys flight land nahi hua hai so aisae gooro mat vahan.....
Ram:tujhe kaise patha?
Abhi:kyunki nandu nae mujhe ab tak call nahi kiya...maine bolatha usse flight land hote hi call karnae ko...
There comes the announcement for nandu's flight's arrival. Everyone become more conscious now a matter of few minutes abhi gets a call from nandhu saying the same and it comes like a great alert to this crazy Family to get ready...As a reflection of her call they all snap their head towards manik who seems restless. They all frowns at him as he looks worried.....
Abhi(smiling looking at him): and this is the best thing in their relationship that they can feel each other more than they think
Hearing him everyone's face have an admiring smile, Manik's state deteriorates more. He looks here and there like searching someone and the whole clan looks at this with wide eyes...He started roams around the place like a mad person searching for someone and finds his family instead or the person whom he searched. First he frowns seeing them here and looks at Abhimanyu for an answer. All give a nervous smile to him confusing him more and he forgets his restlessness in this confusion.....
Manik:aaplog yahaan kya kar rahe ho?
All looks at each other and gives a look like"ab kya bolaein?" but they all got
distracted with a voice
Muskaan(smiling):hello oldies...
Manik turns his head to them and smiles seeing them and elder clan releases a sigh and mutters " bach gayaein" and the baarat milap takes place for some minutes...After meeting everyone
Abeer:mumma chalo na ghar chalthae hain bhukh lagi hai mujhe(rubbing his tummy with a pout)
Navya: haan..haan chalthae haina beta....
Kartik(mutters): jaisa baap waisa beta..har wakt khaana and he receives a smack from his wife....
Manik:chalo na sab aisa kyun muh dhek rahe ho...
Everyone: haan chalo na....
Saying this they turn to leave when manik abruptly stops feeling something He thinks for sometime and looks at abhi.....
Manik(stammering) : woh aagayi hai kya?
All gets shocked hearing him but abhi hides his expression and asks
Abhi : kaun?bachaein?beachein tho aagayenae ma..
Manik(cutting him in the middle): tu bhi janta hai ki mein kisse pooch raha hoon....aagayi hai na woh....
Abhi opens his mouth to say something but stops hearing....
Priya who says "nandu" with tears in her eyes making everyone except manik to snap their heads at her...
Now everyone looks at the person who is walking at a distance searching for her family whom she left years ago her eyes roam around the hall and halts at her family who are looking back at her with teary eyes. As a reflection her eyes too got tears.
She then searches for that person whom she wanted to see everyday. She finds a man standing in the middle of her family showing his back to her and it did'nt even took 2 seconds to pick up whom he is..
Nandhini's pov:
The moment when the flight landed I was able to feel him.The very same feeling which I experience every time when he is near me. God what does it mean? Is he here in the airport... I finished the formalities as soon as I could and dragging my clan I run like a manaic to see him. When I came to the waiting hall I roamed my eyes to search for them and I found them my family staring back at me with the same love and affection. I got tears looking at them after so many years. Then I searched for the man who is the reason of my existence and I found him in the midst of my family who is showing his backside to me. The thought that I am just some feet away from him made my breathing faster and I couldn't believe that I'm actually standing behind him. When these thoughts Occupied my mind I saw him turning his head slowly and my breath hitched at that mere sight. He is standing facing me that same brown Eyes which I loved to stare for hours together is staring back at me. I had longed for this day to come and now I don't know how to react and as always my actions were reflected in him too. Bhai told me that my arrival is a surprise for him so,he hadn't expected me here
Manik's pov:
I felt that same feeling which I felt when SHE was with me. What does it even mean? Is she? Is she here? no...yeh kya soch raha hai manik? don't think overboard I thought that as an illusion and I tried to get that feeling out of me but no.It didn't took the name of leaving. I searched for her around me like a mad person but I don't care if she is the reason of my madness because I'm already madly in love with her, I search a lot I can't able to find her but I can strongly feel her presence. When I searched her I found my whole family looking at me. When I asked the reason of their presence. here and before they could answer me we heard our younger clan's shout and I forgot everything in their greeting session but when we decided to move home they all give weird looks and now am sure 'kuch tho gadbad hai'...par kya? My thought process was halted by the sudden raise of my heartbeats. I hate these feelings as they remind me of her.I know only one person can clear my doubts, my buddy.When I asked him he told me or rather lied me that he can't understand me and there I caught him with his tone and those weird expressions but before I could ask him I heard Priya maa taking the name which I carved to take for years but still I don't have the courage to experience another disappointment. This might be my another illusion which I am having for years now. when I saw those happy tears in my mothers's eyes I got to know that now she is here for sure. I had always dream of this day of her return but never thought how would be my reaction but I know now I can't even wait for a second to get a glance of her. I turned my head slowly to take a look at her and there she is already staring at me with those doe shaped beautiful eyes. The sight which I wanted to see from years.
End of pov.
Both stared at each other for some minutes and everyone else stared at nandini and the first person to come out of the shock is abhi who ran and hugged her tightly with happy tears in his eyes.That broke the trance of others including the love birds. Nandini hugged him in return with tears. Both brothers and sisters shed some tears after which they broke the hug and as soon as they broke the hug the younger clan pounced on her mumbling numerous "missed yous". She smiled at their behaviour and mumbled "missed u all too".
Raman : ouyye...hato sab...Ab humhe bhi tho milni hai apni beti se...
Hearing him they all broke the hug and nandini looks at that direction and finds all her dads with their arms opened and she didn't took a second to run into their arms and cry. She cried in their arms for sometime and next met her mothers who were shedding tears more than everyone.They all met her and kissed her all over her face and after meeting everyone she looked at the man who is standing like a statue. She took some steps and stood exactly before him. He was just staring at her eyes. When she stood exactly opposite to him he looked at his nyo maa and asked through his that "is she real?" to which his mother nodded her head like an excited child with some tears in her eyes. He couldn't believe what's happening. He slowly turned towards her and now she said
Nandhini(pouting) : aur kitne der dhekte hi rahogae Mr.Malhotra? mein sach mein hoon...(choking) Won't you hold me?
Manik smiles at his girl and opens his arms like the way he used to do for her always and she just smashed herself into his chest bringing tears in both their eyes. They shed those tears which they had held for eight years.They both stood like that for some minutes Manik broke the hug after sometime and cupped her face rubbing off her tears asked
Manik(with fear in his eyes):tum chali tho nahi jaogi na?
Nandini(smiling):naa...ab puri lifetime tujhe torture karne ki license leke aayi hoon aiyyapa se.
Manik(kissed her forehead softly): tum torture karo, maaro kuch bhi karo par please mere saath raho...mere paas raho...
Saying this he joins his forehead with hers Nandini smiles hearing him and the whole family admires them after some minutes
Cabir(shouts) : ohhh teri ki....
Manik (gritting his teeth): cabirrr !!!
Cabir:sorry bro par meine jaan bhuchke nahi kiya tha...maine abhi tumhe vahan dekha (pointing behind manan)...
Manik(annoyed): seriously...kuch bhi....
Cabir:no main sach bol raha hoon dheka tha meinae tumhe par bas thu chota sa tha (shows small using his hands)...
Nandini smiles hearing him as she had understood whom he is referring too
Manik:what the hell cabir mera mood karab mat kar...
Saying he hide his face in her neck she smiles hold him caresses his back !
Arijit(irritated): can't you just shut your mouth Dhawan?
Akash:oyee..mein bhi Dhawan hoon..
Arijit:haan haan Cabir Dhawan...ab khush (giving a tight smile)
Cabir: voh dhekh...(again pointing at the same place)
Manik:bakwaas bandh kar apna....
Cabir(frowning) : par yeh kya...pehle tho ek hi tha par ab dho dho hogaye hain....
Manik(he turns saying) : kyaa yaar...
Everyone's mouth widens seeing the scene infront of them. They saw two boys of around 10 years old walking with dragging bag in one hand and other hand inside their pocket.This is not the scene which shocked them but the matter is that those guys carry the same attitude as Manik Attitude, manliness, walking style,look,height everything just resembles Manik's for a minute even Manik thought that they are his shadows.
Nyo:yeh tho bilkul manik jaise lag rahe hain...
Cabir:vahi tho (clapping his hand)..sach bata manik kaun hai yeh bachaye ?
Manik(shocked): what?
Abhi: haan manik kaun hai yeh?
Manik:have you guys gone mad?
Priya(whispers):voh log humari taraf hi aa rahe hain....
Kartik:ab dekhna voh log aa kar bhai ko papa bolenge....
Manik was like "what the hell"...
Those guys walk towards them with attitude shocking everyone. When they saw Abhi they just ran into his arms shouting "mamu" "dude" which confused everyone except Nandini Abhimanyu enguired the tightly in his arms with a smile adorning his lips and teary eyes he just kisses there cheeks on which they both make "ewww" face Abhi laugh on their faces !
Kartik(frowning): yaar in logo ko tho manik bhai ko"papa" bol na tha na yeh log abhi bhai ko "mamu" or "dude" kyun bol rahe hain..
Manik glares at him....Everyone look at them with a frown... Abhimanyu see this and broke the hug asking
Abhi: kaise ho mere champs....
Boys:great dude mamu.. aap kaiso ho?
Abhi:mast...
Boys : we missed you mamu
Listening Abhimanyu hug them tightly kissed their heads
Abhi : mamu missed you too my bacchas
Then boys notices the crowd around them and ask Abhimanyu through eyes that who are they?
Abhi: voh they are my Family...go greet them....
Boys:okay....
Boy1(with attitude): hey I'm "Aadhik Manik Malhothra" and this is my twin brother
Boy2(smiling):Vedhik Manik Malhotra...
Everyone gasps at their introduction except two Abhimanyu chuckles hearing their gasps and Nandini's eyes hadn't moved from Manik who can't believe his ears. He is just gaping at them. He can't think anything as his mind is not working now.
Naira(in not sure tone):come...come again Aadhik what?
Aadhik: Aadhik Manik Malhotra....
Again everyone gasps...
Vedhik(turning to Nandini): Aur maa aap...humhe chod ke aagaye apne bhai se milne..very bad maa.....
Aadhik:haan bhai kya aagaya beton ko tho bhool hi gaye aap.....
Again everyone gasps hearing maa for Nandini from them....
Aadhik (irritated) : dude...aapki family ko koi disease hai kya? why are they giving that same expression everytime ?
Abhimanyu and Nandini chuckles hearing him....Manik turn towards Nandini for an answer....
Nandini: tumhe yaad hai kya jab mein gayi thi uss din tumara birthday tha and you were asking for a gift from me that too aisa gift jo tum humesha apne saath sambhal kar rakh sako....uss din mein tume promise ki thi ki ek din mein tumhe voh gift dhungi aur ab de bhi rahi hoon..voh bhi dho dho...itne saalon se tumhare gifts ko sambhal kar rakha hai meine..ab tujhe dhe rahi hoon sambhal kar rakhna.....
Saying this she eyes their sons to him. Manik was not in his state of mind.He can't get those words of her.He was confused like hell. The gift he had asked to her years ago was their child,their symbol of love but what does it mean that they are her gifts? Is she playing some prank on him?..no she won't play in these things and he can't neglect the fact that those boys are more similar to manik but who are they? When he was thinking all this the answer strikes him and he closes his mouth with his hands seeing them. His eyes got teary not in his wildest dreams he had thought of being a father that too for two kids. He had never thought in this angle. He wasn't in a state to react anything. He wants an assurance from her. So he looked at her and she smiles
nodding her head with some happy tears in her eyes. Now he knows who are they. He smiles admiring them who are talking with their "mamu" and "dude" Abhi finds manik looking at them and smiles at Manik...
Abhimanyu (winking): Buddy won't you introduce yourself to them ?
And now Manik knows that they don't know their father and now manik knows that they don't know their father....
Manik(smirking): why not?..hey I am Manik Malhotra.....
Vedhik : oh nice to(and soon realization hits him he literally shouts) what!!!!!
Aadhik (closing his ears): why r u shouting idiot !
Vedhik(still in shock):he said his name is Manik Malhotra......
Aadhik : haan tho he too shouts "what" (when he understand his brother's words)
Aadhik and vedhik (shouts together) : Manik Malhotra!!!
Manik nods his head with a lovable smile... They turn towards their mother who nods her head like assuring them that "yes he is your father".. They slowly turn towards manik and look at him from top to bottom.They just stare at him with wide eyes...He too look at them with a beautiful smile...And soon they were in his arms both jumping on him and he too holds them together safely.They hug him tightly to ensure that he is for real and for Manik it was a dream which he hadn't even thought of but that became real today.
So obviously he needs assurance that its happening really. After sometime they broke their hug and Manik caresses their faces slowly like printing their faces in his heart. They too smile at him and plants a kiss each on his cheek to which he smiles brightly
Cabir(still in shock):Tell me it is a dream dude..I can't believe it.....
This brings the new dad and his sons out of their land.....
Abhi(smiling):but fortunately this is true bro....
Arijit(shouts excitedly):I can't believe it bro...I really can't.. chhote Manik.
Ritika: voh bhi do do....
Navya: We had never expected this nandu....
Nandini smiles hearing them and turn towards elders who are still in shock.... Nandini eye her sons to take blessings from them and they nod their heads positively...
They first go to nyo and raj and bend down to take blessing from them.They bless them still in a daze with slight tear....
Aadhik(hesitant): hey_? sorry I don't know what should I call you...
Nyo chuckles hearing him and caresses their face and looks at manik with a smile...
Manik(to his sons): Dude she is Nyonika Malhothra, my mom and he is Raj Malhothra,my dad....
They make an ohh face and smiles at them
Aadhik and vedhik(smiling cutely): I guessed it....ok then hello dadi, dadu...
Raj and nyo: hello to you too grand sons....
Then they move towards Raman and Ishita from whom they took their blessings and they introduce themselves too . Likewise they got blessings from all elders where they all
had happy tears seeing the unexpected surprises.Then they move towards younger clan and when manik was about to introduce them.....
Aadhik:ek minute let us guess...I think we know them a bit.....
Manik nods his head and stands near them... Vedhik goes near Avni who is standing with her daughter.....
Vedhik (smiling): Ani mami right? Abhimanyu mamu's wife?
Avni with tears nods her head and smiles while...
Abhi(possessively): Avni man...her name is Avni 1...
Aadhik(smirks): woah possessive for
