The day continues..

IN FAB5 JAM ROOM:

All were happy seeing harshad back but one person was immensely happy and that is none other than our manik. He was happy because finally harshad forgives him and his guilt somewhere lessens and the main reason of his smile is nandini because nandini is smiling and after seeing nandini's smile, automatically a beautiful smile comes on his lips and reaches to his eyes. Even cabir and harshad also notices this. Harshad got somewhat doubtful that may be manik likes nandini. Its not like that he is not happy, he is just little surprised. He is happy that if manik likes nandini then, she is the best for him. 

C: Par ek baat toh batao ki ye chamatkar hua kaise? I mean ye sab achanak se?

MU: Achanak se nhi, ye sab chotti ka kamaal h. Though, i was first angry and scared too but seeing her safe, i am fine aur maine isse daanta bhi. (nandini makes a pout after listening this.)

(Hearing nandini name involved, both manik and cabir got alerted and felt proud of her too that she is the reason for their happiness but when mukti said that she was scared for nandini, manik's heart literally skipped a beat and he got scared , even cabir also got scared for her and when mukti says that she scolded nandini, nandini makes a pout on it and all goes awwww on her. Infact, manik also smiled seeing it but deep down he was scared and wanted to know that what nandini had done so scary that mukti got scared.)

M: Aisa kya kia nandini ne?

(Then mukti and harshad narrated the whole incident to them except the part of their relationship and their confession. Cabir being an over protective brother got scared for nandini, even angry too but being a sweet brother, he calms his anger down as he can't be angry on nandini, even dhrun also got somewhere scared and our majnu manik, he was scared to hell, his heart started beating rapidly with the thought that if anything had happened to her, he was damn scared and angry too that how can she risk her life like that. )

C: Doll, tu thk h na? Tujhe kahin lagi toh nhi? Tu thk toh h na? (Cabir was scared so to ensure himself, he hugged nandini tightly and nandini also hugged him back to calm him down.)

N: Cabir bhai, m bilkul thk hoon. Don't worry. Apki behen bhut strong h. usse itni jaldi maut nhi ayegi. 

C,MU & M : Doll! Chotti! Nandini! (All three shouted on her. Firstly, she didn't know the reason of their sudden outburst, but then, she realised it. But manik sudden shout shocked her but cabir broke her trance.)

C: Never ever say that again. 

MU: Haan, chotti m agli baar baat nhi karungi.(Then, both cabir and mukti hugged her tightly.)

N: Sorry .(She said it with a cute pout that all go aww on her and even manik smiles seeing her cute antics but immediately hide it because she was angry on her and more precisely, scared for her.)

C: Doll! ab tu kabhi aisa kuch nhi karegi jisme tujhe khatra ho.

N: But bhai, maine toh sab ap sbki khushi ke liye kiya h.

C: Hum sab ki khushi tujhme hai. hume aisi koi khushi nhi chahiye jahan teri life ko koi risk ho. Doll! tu hum sab ki jaan h. Agar tu hamare saath h toh hum sab vaise hi khush hain, hamein aur kuch nhi chahiye. (Nandini got tears in her eyes but cabir wipes her tears and kissed her forehead gently.) 

N: Okay. i'll take care from next time.

C: Aur haan, vaise toh ab aage se tu aisa kuch nhi karegi. Par agar karna hua, toh pehle mujhe batayegi. Ab hum sab saath mein karenge. Samjhi?

MU: Haan, ab koi trouble tu akele face nhi karegi. Tu hum sabke liye bhut important h.

N: Okay. (with this all smiled but manik left from there angrily. Cabir wanted to go behind him but nandini asked him that if she can go but mukti asked her not to go because when manik is angry, he doesn't like anybody to be with him and nobody can calm him down but cabir thought that maybe nandini could calm him down and it would be the first step towards manan, so, he agreed. Mukti wanted to say no but cabir stopped her by saying that nandini can handle him. So, finally mukti agrees and let her go with the instruction that if manik shouts on her, she can call them. Nandini goes from there in search of manik and after that, cabir also made an excuse and went behind nandini. Nodoubt, he agrees that she can go but still he knows manik anger and thus want to make sure that she will be fine. )

IN THE CORRIDOR OF THE COLLEGE:

(Cabir and Navya bumps with each other. Though cabir doesn't get angry on nandini because he doesn't wanted to shout on her as an elder brother but by seeing navya, his anger come again that why she doesn't tell about the plan to him knowing that nandini's life is in danger in the plan.)

NA: Hey matarani! I am sorry cabir.

C: How could you navya? Tum aisa kaise kar sakti ho? (Navya got scared listening cabir's angry tone because he never saw cabir in angry mood.)

NA: Cabir, i am sorry. Galti se ho gaya, maine jaan bujh kar dhaka nhi maara. 

C: M iski baat nhi kar raha hoon, m nandini ki baat kar raha hoon.

NA: Nandini? Kya hua nandini ko, vo thk toh h na? (Navya got panicked by listening nandini's name and seeing cabir in an angry mood.)

C: Haan, thk h vo. par agar usse kuch ho jata na, toh m tumhe kabhi maaf nhi karta. Tum aisa kaise kar sakti ho navya?

NA: Par humne kya kia h cabir?

C: Kya kiya h? Tum janti thi na ki doll harshad ke liye vo sab plan kar rahi h aur tumne mujhe batana zaruri nhi samjha? Tumhe bhut acche se pata h ki nandini hum sabke liye kitni important h especially mere liye, maine dil se usse apni behen maana h. Trust me,agar aj usse kuch ho jata, toh m tumhe kabhi maaf nhi karta. 

NA: I am sorry cabir. Haan, mujhe pata tha and trust me, maine nandu ko rokne ki bhut koshish ki thi, par usne meri ek bhi nhi suni. Vo ap sabki khushi ke liye ye sab karna chahti thi, m kya karti? (By now, navya is in tears and cabir felt hurt seeing her tears but now an overprotective brother empowers him.)

C: M janta hoon ki nandini ke liye hum sabki khushi bhut important h lekin mere liye uski khushi, uski jaan se badhkar aur kuch nhi h. Tum ek baar mujhe toh bata sakti thi plan ke bare mein? M usse samjhane ki koshish karta. Aur nhi toh kam se kam vahan uske saath hota to make sure ki vo bilkul thk h. M manta hoon ki vo bilkul thk h par pata h m kitna darr gaya vo sab sunkar, ye soch kar ki kahin galti se usse kuch ho jata toh.

NA: I am really sorry cabir. Sab kuch itna jaldi hua ki m kya karti, m khud itni dari hui thi ki mujhe kuch samajh nhi aa raha tha. I am really sorry. (By now, cabir calms down a little.)

C: Its okay, navya. Par aage se is baat ka dhyan rakhna. Nandini mere liye bhut important h, m us par ek scratch bhi nhi dekh sakta. Bhut kam time mein, vo meri life ka important hissa ban gayi h, meri jaan basti h usme. Nandini ne mujhe ye realise karwaya ki family ka pyaar kya hota h, usne mujhe dil se pyaar kia, meri life mein har rishte ki kami puri kardi, mujhe sirf khushi nhi di h, balki mujhe sukoon diya h. Vo sirf meri behen hi nhi h, mere liye vo meri bacchi ki tarah h jise m har pain se dur rakhna chahta hoon, chahe vo pain chotti hi kyun na ho. (now, cabir and navya both are in tears but cabir composed himself in front of navya.) Please navya, aage se dhyan rakhna. Nandini se related koi bhi baat ho, mujhe pehle hi bata dena.

NA: Mujhe maaf kardo cabir. m aage se dhyan rakhungi. (With this, he hugged cabir. Firstly, cabir was shocked but then, he also hugged her back and both felt new feelings and felt awkward and broke the hug.)

C: Okay.

NA: Vaise, tum kahan ja rahe ho?

C: Vo,nandini manik ke paas gayi. Vo bhut gusse mein h, kahin usse kuch bol na de. 

NA: M bhi tumhare saath chalti hoon. 

C: Okay, chalo.

(Both went to find manik and nandini. There, on the other side, nandini was searching for manik. She saw him near the staircase. At the same time, cabir and navya also saw them and hide behind the pillar.)

NEAR THE STAIRCASE:

( Manik was standing with his back towards nandini and thus, couldn't saw her. Nandini went towards him and started talking.)

N: I am really sorry manik. I know ki tum mujhse gussa ho aur hurt bhi ho. Meri vajah se tumhe vo sab firse yaad aa gaya, tumhe alia yaad aa gayi. I am sorry. (Actually nandini thought that he was angry and hurt because he remembered alia when harshad took alia name and she thought herself responsible for it. She doesn't know that manik was angry because he was scared for her.)

 N: I am really sorry. Meri intention tumhe hurt karne ki thi. M toh bas tumhe aur fab5 ko khush dekhna chahti thi. I am sorry manik. Please forgive me. ( Firstly, manik was shocked that she was thinking that he was hurt because of alia, jabki he never thought about it. in reality, he was scared for nandini. He tried to control himself but having no other solution, he just turned back and hugged nandini tightly to calm his raging nerves and to make himself sure of her presence and safety. Nandini was shocked with the sudden hug and didn't hug him back. Manik broke the hug.)

M: nandini, tum pagal ho? How dare you to put that stunt on me? Tumne ek baar bhi mere bare mein nhi socha? Tumne ek baar bhi nhi socha ki agar aj tumhe kuch ho jata toh mera kya hota? How could you nandini, tum apni life ke saath kaise khel sakti ho? Aur meri khushi? Nandini meri khushi tumse hai, agar aj tumhe kuch ho jata toh pata nhi m kya karta. Tumhe andaza bhi h ki m kitna darr gaya tha vo sab sunkar?Meri jaan nikal gayi thi, Ek pal ke liye aisa laga ki meri duniya ruk gayi ho. Tum aisa kaise kar sakti ho? Tumhe idea bhi h ki tum kitni important ho mere liye? Tum thk toh ho na? Tumhe kahin chott toh nhi lagi? (Nandini was shocked after hearing all that, she has never expected that manik was scared for her to this extent. Nandini was not giving answers to manik so, manik shaked her and broke her trance.)

N: Huh?

M: Tum thk ho? Tumhe kahin dard toh nhi ho raha?

N: Relax manik, m bilkul thk hoon. M fine, mujhe kuch nhi hua. (Manik got some relief and again hugged her.)

M: Never pull that stunt on me ever again. 

(Nandini also slowly brought her hands on his back and hugged him. Feeling nandini hugging him bank, manik smiled a little and tighten the hug. Both felt at peace. To calm manik down, nandini started ruffling his hairs and rubbing his back and manik with that felt so blessed and calm that he snuggles in her hairs more and more. After some time, both broke the hug and both started looking in each other's eyes. Manik bends a little and kissed on nandini's forehead. As a reflex, nandini closed her eyes to feel that blissful moment. Manik's lips lingered on her forehead for some 30-40 seconds. Both felt complete in that kiss. They both indulge in an eyelock but a call on manik's phone interrupted their eyelock. To avoid any awkwardness, manik accepts the call and after talking, he hungs up the call. Both can't see in each other eyes. To avoid the situation, nandini asked him to go to the canteen and manik agrees. Both headed towards canteen. )

Here, after they went, Navya was smiling to her fullest seeing the love between them but on the other hand, cabir was surprised. Navya saw him and got confused that why he was surprised instead of being happy?

NA: Cabir, ap itne surprised kyun h? Ap khush nhi h kya?

C: Navya, m tumhe bata nhi sakta ki m kitna khush hoon par manik ko aise dekh kar i am surprised.

NA: Matlab?

C: I mean today i saw a different manik whom we don't know at all. Is manik ko toh m jamta hi nhi. M kya, hum mein se koi bhi isse nhi janta, infact alia ne bhi manik ki ye side kabhi nhi dekhi. 

NA: Kya keh rahe hain ap cabir? Manik ki kis side ki baat kar rahe hain ap? 

C: Manik ki ye vali vulnerable side. Manik ko itna scared maine aj tak nhi dekha, aj tak usse apni feelings kisi ke saath share karte nhi dekha. Haan, vo fab5 ke saath sab kuch share karta tha par apni feelings usne kabhi kisi se share nhi ki. Mujhse kabhi kabhi kar leta tha, par uski eyes mein jo aj depth thi, vo maine aj se pehle kabhi nhi dekhi.

NA: Ye ap kya keh rahe hain? And how can you be so sure ki alia manik ki ye side nhi janti?

C: Navya, m aur manik soul brothers hain. Hum dono ke dil aur dimag mein kab kya chal raha hota h, hum dono ko ek dusre se pehle pata chal jata h. Jab manik alia ko like karne laga tha, mujhe idea tha ki vo usse like karta h, but i thought just as a friend kyunki maine uski aakhon mein kabhi alia ke liye pyaar nhi dekha, jab usne hamein bataya, i was shocked. M usse tab bhi samjhana chahta tha, par manik khush tha, chahe dil se nhi, par khush tha aur alia bhi meri friend thi, toh maine kuch nhi kaha. Maine socha time ke saath dono samajh jayenge aur jab unhe realise hoga, toh vo khud hi ek dusre se dur ho jayenge. Lekin, jab maine nandini ko dekha aur manik ki aakhon mein dekha, m tab hi samajh gaya tha ki vo nandini se bhut pyaar karta h aur vo dono soulmates hain. Manik ke batane ya uske feel karne se pehle hi mujhe pata chal gaya tha ki manik ka dil nandini ke liye dhadakne laga h. Yeh h hum dono ka rishta, isliye m janta hoon ki alia manik ko nhi janti thi. Aur manik ki is new side se mera matlab h ki u know, manik jab kabhi gussa hota tha, toh vo sirf akela rehna chahta tha. Vo kisi ko bhi apne kareeb nhi aane deta tha, mujhe bhi nhi. Vo khud ko band kar leta tha, isliye nhi ki vo apne gusse mein kisi ko hurt kar dega, balki isliye kyunki vo kisi ke samne weak nhi padna chahta tha, vo kisi ko apni emotional side nhi dikhana chahta tha, usko lagta tha ki uska dard sirf uska h isliye uspar haq bhi sirf uska h, kisi aur ka nhi. Lekin aj manik ne pehli baar nandini se apna dard baanta h. Jab vo gusse mein tha, pehli baar kisiko apne kareeb aane diya h, kisi ko apni vulnerable side dikhayi h, kisi ke liye scared hua h, kisi ko apna humdard banaya h, apne ilawa kisi ko apne dard par haq diya h aur aj mujhe aur bhi zyada yaqeen ho gaya h ki nandini hi manik ke liye perfect h. Aur yr doll kitni innocent or selfless h, usne ek baar bhi ye nhi socha ki manik uske liye scared hoga balki usse ye laga ki shayad vo isliye gussa h ki vo alia ko yaad kar raha h. Nandini bhi manik se pyaar karti h par ye sochkar ki manik kisi aur se pyaar karta h, usse samjha rahi thi ki vo khud hurt na ho, jabki khud vo kitni hurt thi ye sochkar, par uske liye manik ki khushi se badhkar apni khushi bhi nhi h. manik kya, agar usse hamari khushi ke liye bhi apni khushi kurbaan karni pade, toh vo haste haste kar degi, par m aisa kabhi nhi hone dunga. Nandini ko uske hisse ki har khushi milegi. Aur ab toh  indirectly hi sahi, par manik ne nandini ke liye apni feelings ko accept kar liya h ye batakar ki nandini uske liye kitni important h and jaldi hi nandini bhi accept karegi. And u know jab manik ne nandini ko hug kiya aur uske baad nandini ne bhi manik ko hug kiya, toh jo smile, jo peace, manik ke chehre par thi, maine pehle kabhi nhi dekhi aur nandini bhi bhut khush thi. Both were at peace and felt complete at that moment. (Navya was spellbound after hearing all that.)

NA: You are right cabir. Dono ek dusre ke liye hi bane hain.

C: Bas ab hamein, in dono ko is baat ko aur realise karwana h aur in dono ki zubaan par vo baat lani h.

NA: Haan cabir, hum apke saath hain. Agar in dono ki khushi issi mein h, toh hum apka saath zarur denge.

C: Thanks navya. Ab in dono ko milne se koi nhi rok sakta. Manik and doll ki life mein m ye khushi lakar hi rahunga. (With determined and smiling face, both head towards canteen)

(In the canteen, Fab5, Navni, harshad  are sitting together. Firstly, all were shocked seeing harshad sitting with them and laughing but then all composed themselves and ignored it because who wanted to take panga with fab5. They were laughing, talking, eating, enjoying to their fullest. All were happy to their fullest. Nandini saw mukti and harshad stealing glances and she felt very happy. She also saw cabir and navya stealing glances and thought to talk to them. Dhruv was happy but somewhere missing alia. Here, manik and nandini are also stealing glances of each other and were blushing and smiling to their fullest. After some time, they decided to do party at malhotra mansion, Nandini refused to come. Hearing that manik's face fell down because he wanted to spend some time with nandini and nandini also saw it. But then, cabir and mukti tried to convince nandini and did some emotional blackmailing and nandini immediately agrees to them because she didn't wanted them to be sad especially manik and also, she wanted to spend some time with manik and by hearing it manik's face lit like a 1000 watt bulb and his happiness can be easily seen on his face which nandini noticed and she also smiled fully seeing manik smiling. All this is seen by both cabir and harshad. Now harshad was sure that both manik and nandini like each other and prayed to god to keep them together. They all went from there smiling to their respective home to get ready for the party at the mansion with two restless souls i.e. manik and nandini to spend some time with each other.)

Finally, the day come to an end.. but the party is on the way. Fab5 party and no dhamaka is not possible and with manan trying to understand about each other's feeling and their growing love towards each other is like icing on the cake. so, Fab5 dhamakedaar party is on the way....
