Manik looked at sakshi, "App abhi tak gayi nahi?" Sakshi scoff, "Yeh tum logon ko mujhe yahan se nikal ne ka kiya shauk hai? Jab dheko yahi bolte ho" Manik give her a confused look, "App kiske baat kar rahi hn? Aur aren't it's obvious, app kisi aur ke ghar mein rahen gi toh yahi hoga na, miss sakshi".
Sakshi sigh. Their attention divert towards the door, arjun entered, looking at them. Before manik could say anything to him, sakshi move toward him, making manik eyes narrow.
"Kya hua?" Arjun asked softly and manik eyes burn. Sakshi shook her head and hold his arm, "Kuch nahi, bas yeh tumhare bachon ko mujhse bohut problem hain. Aryy kya mein itni drawni (scary) hun?" She whispered and pout. Arjun chuckle softly, shaking his head. Manik clench his fist, controlling his irritation. Altogether he can't hear their conversation but the sight of sakshi holding his father arm and his father soft voice with her pissed him off.
Arjun looked at manik, "Mannu meet her sakshi, my fia... " Manik cut him off, "Rahne dijiye, mere pass faltu time nahi hn introduction ka" arjun raised his eyebrows, "Kyu train pakar ne hn, tumhen?" Manik huffed, "Jo samne dhek raha hun isse acha toh pakar ne hih hoti" he mumbled.
Arjun frowned, "Kuch kaha tumne?" Manik looked at him, "Kuch suna apne?" Arjun shook his head, "Toh bas kuch nahi kaha meine" manik said sarcastically sweet.
Sakshi looked amused, "Aryy aise kaise, meine toh suna hain tumhe kuch khate hue" manik looked at her, clearly pissed, "Wo apka problem hn miss sakshi, mera nahi!!" sakshi got startled at the coldness in his tone. She never heard this tone of his. Even if they were bickering few hours back his tone was soft and calm not cold.
Arjun frown, "Mannu yeh kisse tarha baat kar rahe ho? Yeh sikhaya hn meine?" manik looked at him, still pissed, "Apne mujhe kuch sikhaya hih kahan hn, baba" arjun glare, "Mannu, apologise, now" manik pout but compiled, "Sorry baba" manik mumbled. Arjun shook his head, "Mujhse nahi, apologise from sakshi!!" He ordered. Manik looked at him as if he grown horns, "Inse? kabhi nahi" Arjun face hardened, "Manik" manik grumbled, "Sorry, miss sakshi" he looked at arjun, "I hate you" and left the room angrily. Arjun sigh, massaging his temples.
Sakshi kept a hand in his shoulder, "Arjun don't worry, bacha hn" arjun sigh but nod.
Rohit who was working on laptop got startled when manik barge in. One look at his face and he knows what has happened.

"Jealous hai?" Rohit ask. Manik puff his cheek but nodded nonchalantly. Manik pushed the laptop away and sat on his lap, rohit out of habit wrap a protective arm around him, "Samajh ti kiya hn wo khud ko? Chipku kahein ke" Manik huffed. Rohit looked amused, "Hayee mere Allah, aisa bhi kiya hogaya?" Manik clench his fist, "Wo chipku... !'' Rohit cut him off, "Kon?" Manik glare at him and rohit kept a finger on his lips, "Ok ok I get it, angry monkey" manik sigh, "The way that girl cling to baba and how can baba call her so softly? Who give him permission? Only I have right over his soft voice. Only I!!".
