Manik got in first, all the others followed him.
He sat on the sofa none got the guts to sit before him.
Even his dadi and mom too.
Manik - what's all this ?
He looked at the maids, all disappeared in a jiff.
Dadi - manik, it's a part of surprise
Manik - have you all gone mad.
Manik wife harika came there
Harika - manik don't be angry
Manik - didn't I said all out
Harika didn't said a word and disappeared. This confused nandhini and why he is talking to his wife like this.
They were lovers before marriage.
Manik voice brought her out of her thoughts.
Manik - what if that girl rejected yuvaan, our pride would have been at stake and yuvaan would have became laugh stock.
Manik mom - nothing like that happened
Yuvaan - nothing would have happened like that, we love eachother.
Manik - loving eachother doesn't mean, they will have same choices as you.
You should have asked hee first
Yuvaan - sorry bhai
Mom - manik don't worry she is all fine, we will held a grand ceremony of their engagement then everything will be solved.
Manik - what's your name again?
Nandhini - nandhini darayavahush King
Manik - he always introduced as Dara.
I hope you don't have any problem with the arrangements for your engagement.
If you have any please come to me.
Make yourself at home.
He got up and was about to go.
Suddenly got turned and marched towards nandhini. Nandhini got sweated when she saw him coming towards her.
Manik - now i know where I saw you
Your granddad worked here right.
Nandhini - yes maharaj
Manik - darayavahush means possessor right.
You Said this to me once
Nandhini looked at him, manik got lost on those eyes.
Manik - see you later.
Nandhini is still in that place without moving, yuvaan came and tapped her shoulder.
Yuvaan - you didn't even said to me once you belong here and you know us very well.
Nandhini - because you never once mentioned you are from this family.
Yuvaan didn't said anything and took her luggage to the guest room.
In room
Yuvaan - nandhini , don't be angry. It's for safety purpose. I didn't mean any harm.
Nandhini - you said your family doing business and nothing special about it.
Here your family owns full Rajasthan.
Yuvaan - you also didn't said this is your native.
Nandhini - because I was here only for few years , my father doesn't belong here. My granddad was here and took care of me when I'm here with him.
Yuvaan - nandhini, I was wrong I should have mentioned you that I belong to a royal family. But my love wasn't fake.
I have genuine feelings for you.
Nandhini - no one with a genuine feeling will get a girl into a tough point to agree what they want.
Yuvaan - nandhini, don't you love me.
Nandhini - yuvaan, you need to understand what's the different between love and dominating.
You have proposed me and I said to give you a chance.
You asked me to accompany you to your village and meet your parents since I have no one I decided to come Here with you for vacation but you totally used it for your benefit.
I'm leaving this place.
She was about to remove the ring, yuvaan held her hand and literally fall on his knees.
Yuvaan - nandhini I'm wrong please , I will change myself for you. I love you so much. Don't leave me.
He was literally begging, nandhini decided she can never fell for this man.
She has to leave but didn't show it infront of him.
She just nodded her head, he left her and stood up.
Nandhini - I want some rest
She was looking outside the room, there she saw manik who was busy on phone.
She quickly averted her gaze
God , why he has to be everywhere.
She sat on bed for a while and got up washed her face and went out to get downstairs.
Nandhini pov
God, how will I face those people. I can't even get a coffee.
She was confused and standing there, manik came there.
Manik - hi
Nandhini got startled
Nandhini - king
Manik - what king, now we are family . Call me bhai
Nandhini looked at him and nodded
Manik - when did you moved to Philippines?
Nandhini - after my grand dad death, I got scholarship so I moved there.
Manik - that's good. how were you doing all this long?
Nandhini - a lonely life but nice life without responsibilities.
How about yours ?
Manik - same lonely life but with more responsibilities.
You have grown, I couldn't recognize you.
Nandhini smiled
I think I got too old
Nandhini - never you were the same as I saw you handsome and charming.
She bit her tongue after saying this.
Manik laughed loudly.
Harika saw this and felt jealous, it's been years manik laughed like this.
His mom too noticed this and felt happy that manik being casual.
All came down for dinner and yuvaan feeling very uneasy , he is worried that nandhini would say anything against him to manik.
Manik sat opposite to nandhini harika was sitting beside him and yuvaan was sitting beside nandhini.
Manik mom - nandhini ,how was the dishes. Hope it's match your taste.
Nandhini - everything is delicious, thanks for this.
Harika - nandhini you are a orphan right, how did you take care of your studies.
Nandhini got slight discomfort with the word orphan, everyone felt the same way.
Nandhini - I got scholarship and worked part times for my other expenses.
Manik - that's very commendable.
Nandhini - thanks
Manik mom - manik I can see you gel up with nandhini well, that's very good.
I saw you both talking, it's been years I see you like that ever since you became a king that smile got totally vanished.
Manik - there should be a reason to smile.
After a long time I'm meeting her, he pointed his hand towards nandhini.
All turned their heads to her.
