Manik pulled her chair to sit for dinner. Nandini was quite surprised by these gentlemen gestures of Manik as she was always busy in fighting and avoiding him. He served the dinner and bowed infront of her saying
Manik : "mam ur wish is my command do you need anything else? "

Nandini was just admiring him "aww he is choo chweet and cute "
Nandini : Manik I don't need anything else u just come and eat with me

Manik : *smiles * okay cindrella as u say

Nandini : vaise Manik how do you know that I love Chinese

He didn't know what to answer

Manik : I ...I don't know that u like it I. ..I. ..just ordered it usually *Stammers

Nandini : tum bilkul nahi badle Manik. Aaj bi joot bolte hue tumhare naak red hojata hai us clown (joker )ki tarah.
Awww look at u even ur face is turning red

She was unable to control laughing and laughs her heart loud

Manik couldn't do anything except admiring her

After dinner nandini lies down on the grass in the garden. Manik also joins her. It was a full moon night so both of them were just looking at the moon

Nandini makes a wish looking at the moon

Manik : kya maanga tumne?

Nandini : jab mera sapna Sach hoga tab khud bataongi
Manik : sapne kitne ache hote hai na nandini
Nandini : Haa Manik lekin mere sapne Sach nahi hote isliye maine sapne dekhne kab ki chod chuki hun. Lekin aaj kuch maang ne ka man kiya

Manik : nandini tum sab ke sapnon ke baarien mein sochti ho to kisne kaha tumhare sapne puree nahi honge?

Nandini looks straight into maniks eye's
Nandini : kisike kehne ke zaroorat nahi hai Manik kyunki mujhe yaakin hai apne bad luck pe.

Manik understood her situation coz he know her life from childhood. She didn't get any happiness all these years but she is the person who gives happiness to everyone

Manik : Acha chodo nandini tumse ek baat puchu?

Nandini : Haa pucho na

Manik : tumhare liye pyaar kya hai nandini?

Nandini to herself :it's u Manik

She came out of trance and said

Nandini : pyaar wo hai Manik jisme hame apne aap se zyada uspe trust hona chahiye. Pyaar me humse pehle us insan ke baarien mein socha chahiye .pyaar mein tum or mai nahi hota hai it's just us only us . Mar bi jaon lekin tumhe kuch nahi hone doongi chahe uske liye kuch bi karna pade (Looks into his eyes but then realises what she said )I ...I. .Mean ki. ..pyaar. .aisa hota hai.

Manik was just lost in her

Nandini : aur tumhare liye pyaar kya hai?

Manik : it's u nandini! (He holds her hand )I mean everyone loves you na isliye

Nandini : not everyone Manik some don't love me
He understood that she told about him

To change the topic Manik asked her

Manik : when you were a child did you ever think about date?

Nandini blushes

Nandini : pucho mat Manik u will laugh at me

Manik : fine I will not laugh tell na when did u think

Nandini : vo when we both got engaged na tab. ... (she realised and stopped wat she was saying )
Manik : nandini it's okay speak up

Nandini : fine but this is not about u okay?
Manik : okay mam

Nandini : Mera pehla date waha hona chahiye jaha door tak koi nahi hona chahiye, snowfall hona chahiye aur ek chotasa ghar sirf hum dono ke liye bus hum dono aur koi nahi hona chahiye .ek kiss ek hug aur tasty dinner.

Manik : sounds romantic

Nandini : lekin impossible hai Manik kyunki ye mera pehla date hai aur rajasthan mein barf hahaha. .that's highly impossible saying this she sighed

Manik got a call so he said nandini to stay there and he went to take the call
He made a few calls urgently and returned after 15 minutes but by that time Nandini was fast asleep. A small smile appeared on his face .

He was just admiring her soft hair, pink lips, eye's which are closed and her cute expressions while sleeping

After 15 minutes his phone beeped he carried nandini in his arms and left the place. She woke up after half an hour but before nandini could recognise the place Manik came infront of her

Manik : tum utgayi wow! Date pe koi sota hai kya? (he acted as if he is angry )
Nandini was guilty

Nandini : sorry Manik

Manik : sorry nahi u have to get the punishment. He blindfolded her without wasting a second and let out a sigh of relief

Nandini : Manik ye sound kya hai
Manik : nandini Yaha pe work chal raha hai so u just hear this songs
He kept headphones in her ears ASAP

Nandini : Manik tum ajeeb behave Kyu kar rahe ho! Date pe punishment kya hai?

Before he could answer anything he understood that it's time to go so he lifted her up

Nandini : Manik chodo mujhe I can walk

He was in no mood to listen after sometime he put her down and opened her blindfold

Manik : nandini open ur eye's slowly

She could feel something cool under her. She slowly opened her eyes

Her eyes popped out of surprise .All she could do was hug Manik as harder as she can

Nandini's pov :
am I dreaming or is it real? I am surrounded fully by snow. There is a beautiful wooden house with some trees and an igloo was present on left
Himalayas and the moon are clearly visible through the house it is looking like I could hold the moon with my hand But how did we came here?
Oh my god so it was the sound of the chopper!
We came here in chopper he wanted to surprise me. Every minute my love for him keeps on increasing how can I resist this. I was dumbstruck seeing the house
It is beautifully decorated it's glowing like a bride
The gate had lights which were arranged in a pattern "ur my life"

Is this true I just can't believe my eyes. I saw the name plate of house it's on my name. "NANDINI MALHOTRA "
Tears were rolling down my eye's. I know that iam engaged to him but I never imagined as nandini malhotra. For me it was always nandini murthy.

I turned to see him he was nowhere. I saw him standing out of the house arranging dinner table and beautiful white curtains around it with almost every type of flower. It was just awesome.

I didn't even see any marriage with such type of beautiful arrangements. I ran all along the corridor and hugged him with all my force
