Part 5 Doctor left both of them worried. Tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Manik , our daughter"
He was under the same situations.
Cabir was standing behind both of them trying to absorb what happened.
"She will be fine"
He wiped her tears.
"Yeah she will be fine"
She said trying to convince her self .
"Nandani"
They turned back to see mukti , Alya and dhruv.
"Is she okay??"

Just then they heard nurse.
"Manyia Malhotra"
"You are allowed to visit"
"Only parents"
She informed seeing all of them proceeding in.
"It's okay you guys go see her we are waiting"
Cabir told them .
They both rushed in and saw most important person of their lives under oxygen mask and syringes .
Nandani was numb to see angel of her life like this .
He ran and kissed manyia's forehead.
"Daddy's princess please get well soon , I can't see you like this."
He turned back on hearing sobbing voice.
He moved towards nandani .
She buried her face in his chest.
"If you will get weak who will give me hope??"
"Manik I can't see her like this it hurts"
Her face was now in his hands
"I know it does but as you said in morning we will stay together, Nothing can happen to her "
She nodded .
They both turned to see her.
"Be with her , I will ask rest of them to leave they can't stay entire night here"
"Yeah"

As manik left she sat down beside manyia and stroke her hairs.
She was symbol of their love nothing should happen to her.
Just than manyia opened her eyes.
"Mama"
"Manyia"
Smile spread over her face.
Manyia was trying to remove mask.
"No "
She placed it back.
Manyia didn't resist she felt like she is weak to talk .
"Try to sleep back"
Manyia remained in same position .
"Want to hear story?"
She could see her eyes lighten up.
"Okay than bunny bear one"
Manyia opened her eyes .
"Once up a time there was a little bunny bear , who was youngest and naughtiest among his siblings ----------------------------------------"

Nandani was stroking manyia 's hairs and narrating her a story and manyia was trying to concentrate with her sleepy eyes.
He closed the door and walked towards them and take place in front of nandani , who so on her story.
