Part 18
Nandini slowly shut the door behind her, waiting to know what will be the final result after all this happenings, and her mind was filled up with lots of questions, like, why Soha want to play this pregnancy drama? Whats the benefit of it?And why did she inform her at the first? And how Manik know that it was a lie? Did they were so apart after that fight? And most of all, what does Manik want to discuss with Soha alone, and why he asked everyone to leave, even her? She knows everything, but what he is trying to bring out? When Nandini was filled up with so much question, Mukti came forward and asked "Hey, what happen, are you fine" Nandini came back to her senses and nodded her head and forwarded to go near Radha, when Mukti held her hand and made her sit between her and Aryaman.
Nandini felt little uncomfortable sitting near Aryaman, but he luckily found this and turned towards her and said "Nandini" Nandini quickly turned to him and moved back a little towards Mukti, making more space between her and Aryaman. He laughed at once and said "do you know, why we all have been here" Nandini face shrinked a little and she said " Ya, i guess thats all over, and i don't want to speak more about that, plsss" he found her uncomfortable and he said " No, its not that" but he was cut off by Nandini saying " I said i don't want to speak about that" He smirked and said "You are the right pair for Manik, a tough nut to crack, you are sincerely made for each other pieces" and everyone laughed, Nandini got angry and said "Will you stop this non-sense, don't try to make fun of my Manik, that too, at his absence" He just put his finger on his lips and acted like a obedient student and nodded to what she spoke, Nandini got irritated to the core and said "What the hell you want?" Aryaman replied "Will you just let me speak for 2 mins continuously pls" and Nandini nodded.
Aryaman said "Its not what you guess, we didn't come here for what you think" Nandini looked at him with confused face, and Mr.Khuranna came forward and said "I'll clear all the confusion Nandini" and he continued "Actually we are here to invite you all for the wedding ceremony of both my children" Nandini quivered her brows and asked "What?" and he replied "Yes, for both Aryaman and Mukti marriage, happening on the same day as Mukti's, which you all would have known before, and we have come here to discuss about that, she turned towards Mohan and he nodded his head in a positive manner,and Khuranna said "Yes Nandini, Aryaman and dhriti getting married on the same day as Mukti with Abhimanyu, so, now you got it clear" Nandini asked then you all said something then, and Mohan held Nandini's hand and said " Yesterday, when you are with Soha, i came to your room to discuss about Mukti's marriage preparation, that is when i found out, how mad Manik is in love with you, he held your photo in your hand and was speaking to it, he was continuously crying, and the thing which excited me most was, he cried for long time,and he finally took out a cigarette and said Sorry Nandini, only one, i could not control myself, and he started smoking, that is when i understood the depth of his love for you, but i know about my son, he'll not confess it easily, so we both planned to make him confess by himself, and everything happened as expected " he said laughing and hifying with Khuranna.
Nandini was again having happy tears, to see such a supportive family,and she turned towards Aryaman and said "Sorry, i mistook, ac..." but she was cut off by Aryaman saying "Thats fine Nandini, since you don't know the truth , you acted weird" and they all laughed heartily, she thanked Aryaman for accepting this , due to which unexpected things happened in her life, which she never even dreamt about,and shook hands happily with him, and he replied back saying "You are always welcome,and don't thank me, i found a nice friend in you, and we don't thank our friends right" and they both stood looking at everyone and laughing.
Manik opened the door and came out in complete happiness, he never expected he could get soha out of his life this much easily, he was so happy thinking about his new life with nandini,HIS NANDINI, when ever he thinks about nandini, some unknown happiness spread in his heart,and he felt so energetic, he rushed downstairs to living hall, where everyone were waiting for him to come back, he wanted to inform this good news with everyone, especially with his nandini, want to be so close to her, hold her in his arms, scoop in his arms, and to dance around with her, but what he saw completely shook him, his nandini standing close to Aryaman, holding his hand,and smiling at him, they both seem to enjoy each others company. And they didn't notice him coming close to them, he never ever wanted this to happen.
He felt the pain, that Nandini would have gone through, whenever she saw him with Soha, he understood, he deserve this and he feared, what if everyone has convinced Nandini to marry Aryaman, he was scared thinking about it, what if Nandini has accepted, but he composed himself saying "Nothing of that sort will happen, my Nandini will not leave me, and if its what she want to, am happy with her decision, for what all i did to her, i deserve this, i deserve more than this." and he went near everyone to know what has exactly happened.
