Enjoy reading,

Manik and veer sits for breakfast. Nandini has made chole puri for breakfast. Manik first got confused, but started to eat. After breakfast, nandu puts the cupcakes🧁. Now manik is more confused, because these are his favorites and his boo promised him to make for him. Now, he is getting doubt, last night is real or his dream.

M: did you come to my room last night? He asks...

V: why will nandu come to your room? Veer asks immediately to save nandini and nandini also nods her head.

M: its just....forget it.

They complete the breakfast and manik is trying to talk with nandini, but she isn't giving him chance. She went to kitchen and doing some work.

M: veer, where is drinking water??....he just hide the water mug present on dining table and asks veer, so that he may get chance to meet nandu alone in kitchen.

Veer also played with manik and says....'You can go and drink in kitchen'.
Manik immediately went.

Here manik enters into kitchen and see that nandu is arranging the plates.

M: mm...nanduu...i am sorry na. You give me any punishment for my mistake. I will do it.

N: think carefully mr.malhortra before committing and you can't go back. She says in a mischievous tone.

Manik didn't notice this and falls in trap.

M: I will do anything to get you back.

N: okk...I have give you 2 punishments. Do you remember, I didn't give you punishment for the boy friend thing also.......she while rising her eye brows.

M: I remembered it...

N: good...so now in 1st punishment 2 things you have to do. 1) you to write I am sorry nanduu 1000 times....manik widen his eyes....nandini smirks and tells 2) you have to share your worries with one of your closed ones to your heart ( she didn't wanted force him share his problems with her, so atleast if he shares with other person, it will lessen the pain).. such a pure soul.....here manik admired nanduu more...

M: hugs nandu and tears are flowing from his eyes. No one understand him like her, that he required someone to hold him and share his worries. 'I am 12 when mom suddenly changed and I don't know from that day, I didn't get the warmth which I feel whenever she is with me. She torchured me mentally by saying the words you're curse, you're mistake, you destroyed my life. These words pained my heart nandu. I dont know what to do. Dad used to call mom's phone. She used to say him all the lies for avoiding me talking to dad. I talked very rarely with him. Only once she gave me the phone to talk to him.on that he said that ' i am sorry manik. I can't able to meet you, but beta I have made strong enough to fight your own battles. If you feel you're correct then don't take back step manik. In your life, sometimes me or your mother may not be there. You have to be strong without us manik. Your birth and death are decided by God, but in between the life you live will only be in your hands. God has given choice to live our life however we want manik, either you drown in worries of your agony or rise and make the world better place. You will make mistakes manik, but you have learn from your mistake. Don't bend your head, if you haven't  done anything wrong'. These words dad said to me. From that day, I didn't take neyonika words to heart. But, when I  was 16 years old, dad's death break me once again. My dad, who gave me strength to fight with the world is no more. I cried soo much nandini. At that time, i felt like someone wants me hold me. But alas, I became orphan with my mother around me.
