Her eyes flutters wide open as she snuggles into his hard chest and covering her mouth yawned loudly. Her sleep was interrupted by continuous knocking.

Removing her palm away from her mouth she tried stretching her body feeling the stiffens but stopped when her eyes landed on Manik who had his arms tightly wrapped around her waist and sleeping with frown on his face.

Realisation hits harder her and she chuckles softly as she recalls how last night they were watching movie and talking and didn't realise how they fallen asleep. Her lips curves into a beautiful smile and raising her thumbs up she caressed his forehead removing the frowns away from his face.

Her heart flutters up as she glanced at him who looked so handsome and cute while sleeping. Her heart was dying to hold his cheeks. She couldn't stop herself from adoring him for a seconds.

Another knock broke her thoughts and sighing to herself and wanting to disturb his sleep she thought of checking who might be there. Leaning forward ahead placed a soft kiss on his cheek and coming out of his grip she covered him with a blanket.

Taking glimpse of him for the last time she stood up and rushed back inside the room and opens the door to revealing tensed and panicking Ishita standing there. She frowns and thought why is her mother so worried but the question itself was answered by ishita.

Ishita : Nandini beta. What took you long to open the door? I was getting worried wondering something happened? Thank god. You are safe.

Nandini : Amma, What happened? You look very worried. Is everything okay? are you alright?

Ishita : I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep. Neyonika called up and said Manik hasn't returned back home. She is very worried and Manik informed her last night he was going to here. Do you know if he came here? Is he still here? If he is then where is he?

Nandini : Amma! I am sorry for not letting you guys. Manik is here. I was angry on him and he came to see him last night very late and we sit in balcony and talked while watching movie. We didn't realise the time and fall sleep. Manik is still sleeping.

Ishaita released a breath she had her holding after Neyoinka called up early morning catching her flight to Jaisalmer.

Neyoinka and Raj were supposed to fly early in the morning as they had to see the arrangements over there. The functions will be starting from tomorrow evening and majority of the guests will be arriving by tonight. Raj wanted everything to be perfect and grandly arranged.

Ishita: thank god! He's safe and sound. I was getting worried when Neyoinka told me about his absence. Abhi has gone to Mukti up as she will come with us. Wake Manik up and ask him to get ready. I will bring Abhi's clothes. There is no need to go Malthora's mansion. He can get ready here and come with us. Raj has called his private team to get the jet ready. We will leave within a hour. Okay. Now don't rush and calmly go and get ready. I will be waiting for you both. Ask him to call Neyoinka too.

Nandini nodded her head and apologising one more time she closed the door and rushed back inside into the balcony and found Manik still sleeping.

She smiles and crouching down and starts shaking his body while calling his name out softly.

Nandini : Manik. Wake up. Mom is getting worried for you. Manik wake up. Please get up otherwise we will miss our flight. You can sleep in flight too.

He opens his eyes and got spellbound staring into those orbs of her eyes and couldn't blink his eyes away. Her cheek heats up as she stares him back with same passion and bitting her inner cheeks clicks her finger at him breaking his trance.
