_____________________________________________________________________________

Well here i am..

I would like to start with Fab 5. Let me start with how heartwarming it was to see Fab 4 supporting Cabs...like Cabs i was really disappointed with them yesterday but the surprise was beautiful, brought a smile to my face. Seeing all of them huddled together, leaving aside their own issues ( especially Alya/Dhruv, brownie points for Miss.Mini Dress that she still pulled Dhruv into a huddle despite his insensitive reluctance) for their best friend. Today, Fab were there as one and it shows at the end of the day, they are all one family. I loved how you described their relationship, fulfilling multiple roles for each other as they grew up together.
Yes, Somewhere along the way their relationship has changed, secrets exist now but i feel like a relationship that remains stagnant is not healthy either..a relationship needs it's ups and downs. Same goes for their relationship, sooth sailing will take away from their relationship. I like my Fab 5 like this, together as a family when needed but also going beyond their group to find other significant relationships of love and friendship.

Let's move onto Mukbhi and how their situation is giving much needed wisdom to Manan. Somehow i feel nothing but sympathy and sadness for Mukti today even when she reacted negatively to Nandini's aid. A part of her was relieved that she didn't have to do the hard job of coming clean to her friends..and she needs support and love at a difficult time..her friends will provide that. So despite her angry reaction, deep down she is thankful to Nandu. And she appreictes it too because Manik shows up at the hospital, she welcomes his strength as he gives her a hug. Found their scene to be quite beautiful.

Contrast that to Abhi's convo with his baby doll. You are absolutely right. Abhi is her elder brother, a mentor, a person who can help her figure things out, give her advice. They built a beautiful friendship in a very short span of time. Very glad to see that Nandu came to the hospital to see Abhi even if it meant to face the wrath of Mukti. One should always ask a dying person how one should live life. Because only a person who is on the verge of losing it will know how beautiful it is..how we should appreciate it and what our loved ones really mean to us. Abhi's honesty that Manan have time to play games whereas he and Mukti don't. People say that Mukbhi fell in love too fast, their story is too unrealistic. I happen to disagree. They already know the value of the person they are able to lose. That's why they only have room for true and no other unnecessary emotions or issues. As you said, they already realize the depth and intensity of their love.
Really hope Manan gain some perspective from Mukbhi, especially our Manik. May Manik be enlightened in the way you have beautifully described.

Now for our Manan. I like that Manik didn't fight a unnecesscary battle with himself today, as always there is tension between the mind and heart but we get to that later. His honesty with Mukti: "There's...hope". Wow boy, someone's positivity is rubbing off on you. He seems a little confused still thou which i think he has no reason to be.
Not when he sought her out to discuss the 'illusion that love is.'I absolutely love that fact that Manik always 'needs' Nandu to sort through his thoughts about everything. He is stressed about Mukti and what Abhi means to her so yeah..makes total sense to pull her into a room and demand that she shouldn't be here.lol.
He is open and honest..it seems like love is just a illusion, he isn't sure if he ever really felt that emotion and then true love reaches out and holds his heart and whispers: Yes, there is true love, i am your true love. My beautiful moment right there ! Nandu's hand reaching out to reassure Manik was the beautiful moment. She holds his heart and his heart is soothed, welcomes her warm touch and he didn't flinch ! Major progress right there. And that was because he needed the touch more than she did but as always the stupid mind kicks in and shakes the hand loose which faith totally has a laugh at and hence, the accidental cheek kiss.
May i also mention that this boy is really diligent with this promise business ? One missed catch and he bent on not letting it again. So he catches her, refusing to let her fall and even gets a cheek kiss for it. Not bad at all, Manik Maltorta.

Holi: So it seems like Nandu has really hate/dislike for holi. there are emotional reasons for it, it may be connected to her parents but nonetheless should Manik choose to harass her at the time of holi, it will another step to learning more about each other. And if he hurts her unintentionally..umm, that's gonna be a problem for our romeo but that just means he will spend more time making it up to her. Thou a pool prank or a water scene seems to be coming according to the offscreen pictures..and Nyo is there too..ohhh i can already smell the trouble..lol. Should be a eventful Holi, one i hope will bring beautiful colours of change to our Manan's life.

Okies..this seems it for now. Lovely as always my love.
Happy Holi again.

- Reya aka Your Sunny <3


Hullo hullo... okies so first let's talk about that last scene you talked about when Nandini reached out to hold Manik's hand. I absolutely fell in love with that line you used that her reaching out was a way to convey to him that yest there is true love and that she infact is his true love. Absolutely brilliant thought! She always has the answers to his questions and worries eh? Like it's almost as if he always has it planned that my rescuer is here, time for some private time in a room. You know what made that scene ever more beautiful was the fact that even though he pulled her inside with a frustrated mindset of what she was doing in the hospital. We seem him the next minute totally forgetting about pretending to be angry with her and he just starts pouring his concerns out to her. Like it was just such an effortless convo and straight from the heart which showed the fruits of Nandini's victory.

very well said about Abhi here. I'm glad Nandu visited him because she's taking along a new light of positivity with her that Abhi has pretty much gifted to her as his last gift. Her tears said it all that she found him to be truly inspirational even though he's in his given situation. Her hope was strengthened and her confidence was uplifted and she understood the power of true love in that scene. She realised that if two people can love each other so selflessly despite knowing that there is no future to their relationship, she should be grateful that she has Manik and they have each other for as long as their forever will last. She realised that true love cannot be taken for granted.

I liked your perception of the changing days of the Fab 5 and how these changes have infact helped shape all the friends individually and has contributed in their character growth in some way or the other. Loved your thought process there! I guess these changes have also motivated them to expand their horizons outside of SPACE and Fab 5 which will become their first step into battling out the real world outside of college.

Hahaha yeh I saw him catch in that room again and I was like yup... this is just the beginning. Now Nandini will probably end up tripping all falling some way or the other in every episode and Manik will continuously uphold his promise of never letting her fall. lol


Dude from the holi pics it seems the whole cast will be at this holi party. We could perhaps expect this party to run a good week or so lol

Hopefully I have access to the ipad tonight and I can actually post my response on time :P

Anywhoos ... speak to you soon!

Love,
Twinkie <3

First of all thankyou pri for spreading a word around for my work. My writing must be somewhat decent for people to appreciate it I guess.

And now @Sana... Tbh it surprises me myself sometimes of how Jat automatically I stet writing about Maana and then it ends up being an essay lol. Manan can be quite complicated sometimes but I guess that's what motivates me to write about them every night.

I want to thankyou for taking out te time to visit this thread and introduce yourself and share a bit about yourself. Hats off to you for possessing Auchincloss a positive outlook towards life and the time you take out to talk with people and make them feel better is truly commendable. Not everyone has that kind of patience and good listening skills to provide support to someone who may be in need of some help. I would really like to thank you for helping people out in their tough times... Really proud of you.

I would love to read your work too. If it's possible could you drop in some links for me and I'll definitely would love to explore your writing pieces.

Take care and stay smiling :)

DAY 11! - His colour of love!

"What if woh... sach bol raha ho toh?"
Well I don't know about his words Nandini... but his touch of colours weren't certainly lying!

Manan, Manan, Manan... today's episode was full of them! But heyy... who says I'm complaining. She looked stunningly beautiful, he looked decently hot. He said let's play holi, she said absolutely not! But let us rewind a little to the truth game, once played AT Manik's house... my manik had so proudly once claimed "I have never taken a no for an answer". So how was he supposed to let her go without being the first one to apply his touch of colour.

Before I drown myself into manan scenes and start analysing their emotions and actions, let me just say that as usual it was a treat to see chaachi on the screen once again. Oh how we just love her to be the absolutely filmy and lenient chaachi who realised Manan's love before they even had the chance to pause and contemplate where they were heading. It's always such a blissful feeling to see her support Nandini and of course Manan, and today she proved that she loves Nandini just like, if not more than her own daughter.

Now let's start off with very first scene of Manan when Nandini confidently assures him that there is true love. "Manik... true love hota hai" She begs him to not try and separate Abhi and Mukti because even though it's only for a short span of time, they should have the right to experience that essence of true love that they are lucky to have. Manik's mind disallowed him to turn and look at her even once, but I feel Nandini's pain-filled words were able to make their way around into his heart. I loved that scene for that fact that even though she was talking about Mukhbi, there was a gist in her words that she was actually indirectly talking about their relationship too. The evidence of pain in her voice, on her face when she makes her request to not separate Mukhbi, was in actual her plea to him to allow her to reunite with her true love too. Her plea to allow her to be able to hold his hand again, to be able to kiss his forehead again, to be able to feel his arms around her again. But at the same time, she knew she couldn't take the risk of pushing his anger to the edge again otherwise the distance that already exists between them two, may increase. But how very much she wanted to be able to experience true love once again. Her true love. Manik. It was almost as if she had stopped herself from saying that "Let her experience love... the feeling that I wasn't able to grasp onto tight enough and experience".

I feel pretty much each and every Manan scene in today's episode had a double connotation associated with it. Holi. Why did Manik exactly want to play holi with Nandini? Was it because she hated holi and this would be the best opportunity for him to trouble her to any extent as he wanted? I testify false. Oh boy who was he trying to fool? He just didn't want to play Holi, he wanted to play holi with Nandini. She was after all the true meaning of colours in his life. She's the one who introduced him to the different colours, the various emotions and alternative feelings his heart was capable of feeling. He wanted to colour her in all his emotions today. And by all, I mean all. Including and especially including love. So much efforts to bring her to the holi party couldn't possibly have been just to drown her in colours and tinted water. His eyes were yearning to just see one glimpse of her. His fingers were impatiently waiting to leave his marks of love on her cheeks, his arms were eagerly awaiting to lock themselves around her waist so she wouldn't escape anywhere. And so he made a phone call to the murthy's with his train of excuses ready. I exceptionally loved when his stuttering started once again and he tried to defend his eagerness of needing to see Nandini. How he tried to cover up his need of her, by saying "Woh kya hai ki woh sab log actually pooch rahe the... you know sab log aa chukhe hain and they were asking nandini khaan hai... yeh woh... thinking about her, asking... missing..." Just how my baby wants to conceal his heart's longing and make it seem as if it wasn't actually his heart demanding to see her, but rather "other people". But our chaachi is no fool. She knows the demands of a newly-in-love heart. And when they teamed up, Manik knew, just knew that his lady love's appearance was now only some moments away.I loved it how he had it all planned out. How he knew where exactly to point and release his arrow. If she could purposefully fumble with her feet in order to fall in his arms, he knew an announcement of him being unwell would surely bring her to his doorsteps.

And his plan succeeded. The way she searched up and down, right and left for him. No corner she left unseen. No step she left unclimbed. And then as soon as she found him, she was pulled into his trap. I loved how after his smirk upon seeing her struggling with water, a genuine smile lit up his face as soon as she tightened her arms around him. It was unsurpassed to see his heart give in at that moment. How he didn't fight with his emotions and let his heart to the workings. It was exceptional to see how delighted he was to have her in his arms and not refrain from holding her there. "Relax...tumhe lagta hai I'll let you drown? hmm? You don't trust me?" The trust was necessary here. I was glad he brought it up. Because today, she had proven that her trust in him was unwavering, solid and forever. Didn't we all see how she knew that he was upto something, during her conversation with chaachi? She knew there was a great chance that his intention of calling her was one that she wasn't aware of. Yet she still came. It was such a double-edged sword, that scene. Because the question now remained, did he trust her trust? "Agar main haan keh doon, toh would you believe me?" It no longer is the question of trust anymore. Because from the inside they both know their trust in each other never shattered. Their blind faith was still intact because it was compelling them to time after time traverse the distance they had created amidst themselves. It is now the question of chance. Whether he's ready to give her another chance. Whether he's ready to name these un-named feelings the name of true love. Whether he's ready to accept that he never hated her in the first place, he never gave up on her for even a single second. Whether he's ready to exterminate every inch of darkness from his life and welcome back his shining star. Whether he's ready to accept that for him, love is Nandini. But he simply laughed off the question. He didn't want to let her see through his mask just yet. But little does he know that his Nandu already knows that he possesses no mask. She already knows that there is hope, because he has hope. Hope of their togetherness.

Honestly, the scene after was rather meaningful too. Oh just the irony when he says to her that she shouldn't trust him and he unwillingly pushes her away. It truly melted my heart seeing Nandini continuing to splash the water for a few seconds before realising that he had adjusted the water level to suit her height. How can he not have? He has promised to always protect her. And well Manik being Manik, always has to have it covered. And for her, he always is there himself to confirm that it's all covered.

His heart couldn't resist being away from her too long could it? Because within seconds he pulled her back towards himself. He wasn't even going to risk her falling this time, so he led her himself to the edge of the pool where his surprise for her was awaiting. The surprise that the mind had planned. His mind once again reminded him that for him, Holi was supposed to be his licence to endlessly torture Nandini. That the sole reason as to why he liked holi was because she hated holi. But was that the real reason he wanted to play holi with her? Was the colour-filled plates only awaiting Nandini's arrival so they could become the reasons of her tears, her anger? His mind may have been the one to claim that it wanted to play holi, but it was the heart that was craving to play it with her and only her. It may have been the mind who had demanded that he buy unlimited supplies of colour. But it was his heart that wanted to apply the first speck of colour on her spotless clothes and face. He didn't just want to temporarily soak, drench and colour her with these coloured powders, he in fact wanted to apply, bathe and drown her in the colours of his love. He wanted to claim his right of being the first one to smear colour on not only her face, but also be the first and last one to spill and spread his colours in every moment, at every step of her life. She thought if she'd warn him, he would step back. But how absolutely wrong she was. He was a good student. And he had learned it quite aptly as to how to be just as stubborn as her. She refrained him from using his hands... but there wasn't a ban for any other part of his body to be used."Tumne hi kaha tha na... haath mat lagaao." I felt as though at that moment, his mind and heart had joined hands.His mind allowed him to be the loving evil Manik who didn't reach out to help her when she slipped, but his heart ached for her one touch. And so he smeared the colour first on his own cheeks and then he finally leaned in and painted her in his colour. Red... the colour that connotes every one of those feelings, those emotions that are related to love in some way or the other. Love, passion, anger, heat, blood, heart. The colour that explains that he may be angry with her at times, but it's his love for her that he feels day and night long. The colour that proves that whilst most people have blood running in their veins, he only has her memories. The colour that justifies that whilst for everyone, their heart beats to keep them alive, his heart beats only to see her smile.
"Happy Holi... Nandini." His heart again smiled today, it again fluttered after skipping a beat as he saw her covered in his colour of love. He knew that the colour on her cheeks will eventually wash off... but he had also managed to spread his colour onto her soul... and that colour was never going to wash away.

So now the precap. Well well.. it seems holi is just an excuse, Manik's true intention is to remain as close to Nandini as possible. After all... he's been refraining himself so much over the last few days and so why let this opportunity leave from his hands. Gosh... they just looked so cute running around! <3 Aaand well as for the panditji... I just hope that's not a look of jealousy. Or perhaps now since that we know he has some sort of a connection with Nandini through her grandmother, is it his feeling of guardianship kicking in? I guess time will only tell. But one thing is for sure... this holi will only bring happiness into Manan's life. After all, holi marks the extermination of evil and the victory of righteousness.

Hope you all enjoyed today's episode!

Stay smiling

me me me...that day i ever miss it !!!
_____________________________

Here goes, attempt 2 but this is a superly sad and pissed Sunny. May world be spared from my wrath..but still..you know :( now i know this response will suck and won't be the way i want... but still i am fate to...blueberry off !
Manan heal me..heal me..heal me..okay i think i am ready again.

Let us start with the emotional aspect of today. Where Manan picked up from. Manik's mind kicks in again and he walks off to gather his bearings again..distance so his heart would stop ruling him. And she says: There is true love and the heart is a mess again. ( Oh crap, i can't remember what i said about true love, oh Ayipappa, grant this child the ability to go back in time :( ) Anywho, she says: let her experience it. She isn't just talking about Mukti here, rather she is talking about herself. She loves him truly, she wants to experience that true love...not with the feeling of pain and betrayal and their battle but just love...even if it is for a few moments..she just wants to relish the feeling of what true love is. And he acknowledges her request, that backward glance. He may have not said but he understood: "Yes I know what you want. And i want to give it to you, I just trying to figure it out..how ??"

And the fate is lending a hand and saying: Do a favour, let's play holi. now why is Manik hell bent on playing holi with his Nandu ? Is he up to his mind games again, even if he is..he is in the playful mood of Holi.He doesn't mean to make her suffer, he wouldn't dare to try to hurt her emotionally. Had he chosen to do that, he would have opted to play Holi with Nandu publicly..not this intimate..mind you sexy manner. ohh the feels but more on that later. For him, There's hope..he can now welcome and accept the return of his light to his life. You know what ? Manik is tired of denying himself the pleasure of Nandini's presence..and now that he has accepted that there's hope...he isn't going to fight a unnecessary battle with himself..at least not on holi.

He Wants to be the first to colour her...How can the woman who has filled his life with such beautiful colours remain colourless on such a day ? So he teams up with chachi. Chachi is totally kickass, she ships Manan and treats Nandu like a real daughter, always looking for ways for her happiness. She realizes that Manik is her happiness so here she is doing what she does best ! Be the romantci cupid !

And how the arrow has stuck ? Right into a tangle of bodies in the water ! Damn, they are in the pool so why is there a need to put out the fire ? Manik is sure Nandu will show up and he is quick to pull into the water ? Did he know she can't swim ? Of course he does, she almost drowned once and he hadn't been the one to save her ? Does that still burn a little ? So all safety measures pulled, his girl can't drown, he is already in the water for her but still, he has to have everything covered.
Oh the hug...the feels..my heart.You know i was thinking last night how admist this angst track we have been denied their hugs but the gods were listening and they delivered. How she clings onto him..so tightly. Their bodies meshed as one, the grip so tight as if they will never let go. And how easily his arms came around her, to pull her closer, to relish in her warmth in the cold water. My beautiful moment right there ! And he smiles...he smiles his beautiful smile. Two days, Two real smiles, Somebody tell Nandu's hope to rejoice.

My Manik is healing...he is already ready to accept her,but he needs more time. Trust made a reappearance again...their main issue, " oh yeah, you don't trust me" but i am glad they didn't let a sweet moment get spoiled by bitter memories.. but had this been a few days ago, Manik would have flinched her touch again at the return of his bitter moment but no, there's hope..Hope for them to build a beautiful relationship again, one which will fill the gaps of trust and communication. and will leave more room for true love.

And he will be the one to colour her first..I am really touched by the fact that Manik chose to celebrate Holi with Nandini in a private fashion.Not that all that sexy cheek wali holi was meant for other eyes but still,i give him points for that. I am give him credit for listening to his girl. "Don't touch me with your hands." While he doesn't take no for a answer, he is still sensitive about what she said. So comes the cheek rubbing. Laal. Laal Isqh, The colour of his love, his favourite colour. How in love and passionate their love is...red is their colour. And he rubs their skin together, their warmth mingling. So close yet so far.

Okies..this is it i guess. I don't know what i missed but oh well. I just knew i couldn't deny your response in the fit of my issues with technology..lol
Beautifully written my love, my apologies about not being able to bold my fav bits :(

Love as always to my Twinkie Bear,

Okies so like the only good thing about being sick is that I have the leniency of being able to stay in bed all day long and just be on my ipad and well ipad means internet and internet mean IF lol.

So I'm going to start off with something you talked about that I was just legit thinking back to and I read it and I'm sitting here go "no way"! Like... how...did..she...just...pick...up...on...that? You mentioned the very vey far scene of my memories of Manan when Nandini falls into the pool and seeing that she couldn't swim, my manik was just about to make his jump but to our non-delight, Harshad came as the saviour. You bet that still burns! Because that look he gave in that episode was when her magic had already started its workings on my baby. They were far from being friends, let alone lovers at that time but he still felt that urge to protect her and the thought of someone else being her savior really did sting. So thankyou thankyou for mentioning that. Today he made up for that burn and she did a very decent job of applying the burn-cream with her tightest hug to him till yet. And well what do we do with that killer smile of his. Is it beautiful or is it beautiful? And again my poor nandu didn't get to catch a glimpse of it. But nevertheless she found heaven in his arms which is still a fruitful gesture,

I couldn't agree with you more there that I'm glad how Maik's initial holi celebrations with his Nandu were out of the public's eye. That's enough evidence in itself that no way was it a prank of any kind. He wanted to be the first one to see her beauty enhance with the application of the colours. He wanted to see her wrapped in his colours of love and then let everyone do as each as they own.And which colour did he chose to inaugurate this festive day with? Red. The colour of Manan. The colour of true love. Now that he's had his share of a blissful moment for now, tomorrow he can actually play holi with her. And by play I mean leave absolutely no spec of whiteness on her suit.

Seriously I can't get that scene out of my head of him running after her. I can already feel it that I'm going to go crazy lol

I shall see you again soon!

Take care..

DAY 12! - Colour and run!

Nandini: waise...toh...yeh sab tumne mere liye kiya?
Manik : yes... Actually I did this because...
Nandini: Because?
Manik: Because...
Nandini Because...?
Manik: Because I love to see you angry!
Oh Manik my dearest Manik...perhaps that's not exactly what you wanted to say. Perhaps you added an extra word in there and what you were actually supposed to say was; "Because I love to see you!" Or maybe that's not it either. Maybe there is in fact more than one word that is unnecessarily used in this sentence. I bet what you actually wanted to say was; "Because I love you!"

Oh goodness gracious me. Just what a beautiful feeling love is. And when two love birds can see nothing beyond their need for each other, it enhances the emotion to such an extent that even the mind forgets how it's meant to function and the heart forgets why it's meant to beat. You only remember the name of that loved one. Their essence flows with every blood drop in your body and their memories flood every inch of your soul. Such is the beautiful bond of my Manan.

I would warn you all before you progress with this post any further. Beware of falling in love with the feeling of love! Beware of falling in love with Manik. Beware of falling in love with Nandini. Beware of falling in love with Manan!

So many questions were asked by her today. And he didn't stumble upon any of them. He answered all of them. If not with words... Then gestures completed his answers. "Nandini, this is just the start up... You have no idea." Oh just how eagerly my baby wanted to tell her that he did all of this, just for her. He left her to solve a riddle at this point. Was he really referring to colours? Because if that's what she thought. Our nandu was missing our Manik's real intentions today. He didn't want to shower her with just colours today. He wanted to drench her in the rain of his love. He wanted her to experience his love. True love. The same true love that she claimed Mukhbi to be really lucky to have. The same true love that she had indirectly asked for him to return into her life. Into their lives. And here he was today. Fulfilling every wish of hers. Fulfilling every promise that he had ever made to her. The promise of always protecting her. And so he did when she first entered the pool. The promise of never letting her fall, and so he did by scooping her up in his arms whilst exiting the pool. The promise of never making her cry, and so far he had only seen sparkles of trust, faith, love, care, worry and happiness in her eyes. No tears.

When we refer to traditions, we often think of them being irreversible. Unchangeable. Permanent. But mind you, ever since Manik Malhotra had his first encounter with his lady love, it's sort of become a tradition of him to break all the previously indented traditions. It started off by breaking the tradition of always coming to college late. All Nandini needed to do was flaunt her most precious smile for him and we saw him turning up to college at 7:30am sharp to discuss the rather forgotten case of Dhruv and Rishab's attacks. (I sincerely hope they concentrate on this in the future actually). Next came the tradition of begging for forgiveness. There was once a time where no matter whose fault it was, the fear of Manik would compel the other person to fearfully stutter a sorry. But when Nandini decided to turn her back onto him after the sacrifice revelation, his need of forgiveness awoke like never before.
And here we are today, witnessing another tradition that has been faltered.
"Manik... What reason do you have to break a twelve-year long tradition of having holi party at SPACE and organising it here...at home?" Ummm Nyonika, isn't it the same reason why you quite slyly manipulated your own son's life a few days ago? Nandini. His reason was, is and always will be Nandini. His love is such that no tradition, no custom can ever obstruct his path of fulfilling his every promise to her. His care is such that if and when pain makes its way towards Nandini, he will go to any extent to destruction that even pain will fear its return near his love. His passion is such that if someone tells him that true love means sacrifice, he will happily sacrifice his existence for her. He felt no need to justify his actions to Nyonika. He felt no need to even talk to her anymore. There may have been a time where out of formality he would have spoken a few words with her but not today. Not anymore. She was the reason of all his pains. She was the reason of all of his Nandini's tears. She was the real culprit of the distanced amidst them. And today he had promises to fill. The promises he had made to her and himself. That he'd always keep her safe. Keep her smiling.

I bet his heart melted just as mine did when she asked him with such innocence if she could drench him in water. It was so endearing to see her testing to see if he would abruptly burst at her. The way she cautiously, step by step positions herself in the most effective position for the prank she was just about to play. Her heart already apologizing for the action she was going to perform. And then she fired! He let her wholeheartedly drench him knowing he'll get his share of fun later. And then once his eyes fluttered open, he realized she was no naive. If he played holi dirty... She played it smart. It'll be unfair of me to not quote that love was in fact in the air today. She ran in the hope that he'll catch her and he followed in the hope that she'll stop for him.

And indeed she stopped for him too, and he caught her as well. At that moment, time seemed to have dozed off. No nose remained except for the music of their heartbeats, no views remained apart from the depths of their love they could see in each others' eyes. The way he so rightfully wipes off the colour of his face with her chunni made her heartbeat quicker. He just knew the perfect ways of claiming his right on her commodities, her heart and simply her. She knew he had her now and it would be difficult to escape once he locked her in his arms. But she tried anyway. And as expected, she was unsuccessful. There was no way he was done with her just yet. He had just shown a glimpse of his love yet. The mystery of the depth of this love was yet still to be unveiled. And for that he needed her to be as close to him as possible. So he bound her to himself with the same chunni which was colored in their love. He knew that knot was the strongest. It was unbreakable. The scene that followed soon after was my utmost favourite. Their conversation. Today there was no mind vs heart battle. Today it was just Nandini, Manik and their love. After what seems for ages my heart felt a sense of relief seeing my Manan converse like the old Manan. The Manan that knew there was an un-named feeling between them. The Manan who knew that living without each other wasn't just difficult but impossible. The Manan that knew that their hearts were no longer their own, but rather each other's.
His cockiness, that one raised eyebrow and that absolutely to-die-for grin, balanced with just the right amount of teasing from her behalf, along with her intelligent remarks and innocent eyes made it a perfect Manan moment. The way she rightfully claimed him to lie to her about coming here and with the ease he confesses to her that no in fact he only had to request to her chachi was just so...so... Heart melting? Like I don't even have the perfect words to describe it. There was no struggle from his behalf of whom to listen to and neither was she hesitant in expressing her right on him today. But like a bumpy road, even the road of love has speed breakers. And as for Manan's case, that speed-breaker is Nyonika. In fact her name is enough. I honestly won't try and express whether Nandini's act of mentioning Nyonika today held a valid point or not because I feel there was a bit of both. Yes, Nandini became the reason of Manik's anger once again. Wounds stung again, they perhaps even bled a little. But the pain didn't last long. My nandu knew how to calm him down as well as how to soothe the pain, And so she did kiss it better with the change of conversation. It was a cherishing moment to see Manik simulate the saying; 'let bygones be bygones.' It meant he has healed a little. And soon he was back to where he had started. Back to letting her experience the depth and intensity of his love.

No no wait I'm not yet finished. There is still a few points that I actually 'aweee'd at during the episode. The fab 5's surprise for Mukti was really and truly beautiful. The really are each other's biggest strengths and we hope they remain that way for the time to come. And omg cavya! Like cabir smeared totally with green and navya with her green chunni... Now that's definitely cute. And the way they made their entry at the party was such a hilarious treat. She really knows how get her work done lol. But honestly, I'm glad for their friendship. It's just so pure and joy-spreading. I still haven't been unable to exactly decode that look of panditji's when he sees Manan running around. But yeh like I had said in my earlier post. It just seems his guardianship seems to be kicking in for nandini seeing that he has some sort of a connection with her grandmother.

And as for the promo, it screamed more masti, more holi, more water and undoubtedly more love!

See you guys around!

Stay smiling :)
