After 6 long hours doctor came out of the
ICU. All rushed towards him except Nandini.
Doctor's face expression were make her
froze on her place.
"Doctor how's my son..!!" Nayonika asked
impatiently.
"I am sorry Mrs.Malhotra..!!" Doctor said
sadly and Nandini felt like a bomb fell on
her. She felt her soul leaving her body. She
felt unreal she started shaking her head in a
no.
"Manik..!!" Nandini whispered.
"What the hell are you saying doctor..!!"
Nayonika yelled.
"Mrs.Malhotra listen..!!" Doctor was about to
say something when nurse came
running from the ICU.
"Doctor..!! That..!! That patient..!! Malhotra

hearing this doctor again run towards the
ICU.
"What's going on?" Nayonika said sobbing
hard.
"Manik humy choor kar nahi ja
skta aunty..!!" Cabir said with tears in his
eyes. Nayonika nodded her head and look at
Nandini who was sitting in the same position
without blinking her eyes. She walked
towards her.
"Nandu..!!" Nayonika kneeled down in front
of her and cupped her cheeks.
"Kuch tou bolo beta..!!" She shook her.
"Aunty..!! Let her be..!! No one can handle
her except Manik..!!" Cabir said softly and
Nayonika again started crying.
Once again they started waiting. Nandini
was feeling herself stranded between earth
and sky.
"I promise you Nandini..!! I will keep loving you till
my last breath..!!" Manik's words again echoed in
ears and her breath stuck in her throat. What will
she do if something happen to him? How will she
live? No she will also die..!! Yes she will surely die..!!
You can't leave me Manik..!! You know I need you..!!
After three hours doctor came this time
Nandini didn't had courage this time to look
at doctor's face. Again all rushed towards
doctor.
"Doctor Manik theek hai na?" Dhruv asked
in a trembling voice.
"Congratulations..!! Manik is out of danger
now..!! I must say that I had lost hope that's
why I came to tell you then I don't know
how but he again started responding..!! I
have never ever seen such a critical case
surviving in my whole career..!! I think
someone of you was praying a lot for him..!!
Moreover it seems Manik himself wanted to
come back to you..! His willpower is
appreciable..!!" Doctor explained smilingly
and all of them started hugging each other
in happiness.
"Thank you doctor..!!" Nayonika said with
tears of joy in her eyes.
"Your most welcome Mrs.Malhotra..!! Manik
is awake now..!! We will shift him in the
ward and then you will able to meet him..!!"
Doctor explained professionally and left. All
of them came towards Nandini who was still
in shock.
"Nandu Manik theek ho gya..!!" Nayonika
said and all nodded. And Nandini it feels
like she was not in her senses she again
didn't said a word. She was feeling so numb.
She was unable to figure out how to respond
on this situation.
"Nandini? Say something..!!" All shook her
but she kept quiet.
"Ya kuch bool q nahi rahi..!!" Nayonika was
very worried for her.
"Aunty I told you na..!! Only Manik can
handle her..!!" Cabir said and meanwhile
nurse told them that Manik had shifted in
the ward and they can meet him. All of them
run towards his ward but Nandini again
didn't moved.
...
"Manik..!! Mama ki jaan...!! Mama ki
zindagi..!! How are you beta..!!" Nayonika
asked kissing his face madly and Manik just
smiled nodding his head.
"Kaminay..!! Tu ny tou dara diya tha..!!"
Cabir slapped him on his head and Manik
made a pout.
"Yeah Manik you scared us all..!!" Alya said
with tears in her eyes and Manik gave her a
smile too.
"Buddy tu theek hai na?" Dhruv asked
holding his hands.
"Haan Manik are you fine?" Mukti asked
worriedly.
"Guys..!! Chill..!! I am perfectly alright..!!"
Manik said smilingly and everyone sighed
in relief. Manik's eyes were searching for his
lady love.
"Ma..!! Nandini theek hai?" Manik asked
worriedly because he thought that she will
be the first who came running but all others
came she wasn't there.
"Manik..!! She is behaving very weird
beta..!! Jab say tum hospital may aye ho she
didn't said a word nor did she cried..!! It
seems she is shock..!!" Nayonika said
worriedly and Manik become more
worried.
"Bulaoa usay..!!" Manik said restlessly.
"Main lay kar ata hoon..!" Cabir said and all
nodded.
...
Nandini was still standing on the bench.
Cabir came and kneeled in front of her.
"Honey pot?" Cabir called her but no
response.
"Honey pot..! Manik is fine..!! He is calling
you..!! Come..!!" Cabir said softly and held
her hands. He made her stand and lead her
towards Manik's ward.
Fab4 and Nayonika were laughing loud
when Cabir came in with Nandini. Manik
look at Nandini and for a second he forget to
breath seeing her in that condition. Cabir
and Nandini were standing in the door
when Nayonika gestured everyone to come
out. All came out leaving Manik and Nandini
alone. Nandini was standing like a statue
and was staring at Manik without blinking
eyes. Manik forget his pain after seeing her
like this.
"Nandini..!!" He whispered. "Mery pass
aoa..!!" Manik said and extended his hand
gesturing her to come close. Nandini slowly
walked towards him and sat beside him. She
lifted her hand and place it on Manik's face.
She traced her hand all over his face as if
feeling him.
"Say something Nandini..!!" Manik said
painfully. "Take my name..!!"
"Maaanniikkk..!!" She whispered for the first
time and Manik smiled.
"Main theek hoon Nandini..!!" Manik said
smilingly. That was it for Nandini she
crashed in Manik's chest and Manik
wrapped his arms around her. She was
crying out loud and Manik was just rubbing
her back. She clutched Manik's shirt very
tightly and sobbed hard.
"Manik..!! I thought I lost you..!!" Nandini
said between her sobs. "Manik
agar tmhy kuch ho jata tou main kahan
jati..!! Mera koun hai tmhry siwa..!!" She
was in so much pain. Manik himself was
crying not because of pain but because his
love was in pain.
"Bus Nandini shhh..!! Just relax..!! I am fine
I am with you..!!" Manik siad shushing her
cries after a lot of consoling Nandini stopped
crying and kissed Manik's forehead.
"Mani..!! Tum theek ho na..!!" Nandini said
with teary eyes and Manik nodded. She
again hugged him tightly. Manik lie down on
the bed with Nandini in his arms.
"I love you Manik..!!" Nandini whispered.
"Manik loves you more jaan..!!"Manik
whispered and gave her unlimited kisses on
her forehead. Soon Nandini fell asleep. And
Manik sighed in relief at least she will not
cry for sometime.

After sometime Cabir knocked the door.
Manik was awake but Nandini was still
sleeping clutching Manik's collars tightly.
"Yes..!" Manik said in a low tone making
sure that Nandini didn't woke up as she was
looking too much stressed out. Cabir entered
and saw Nandini sleeping.
"Is she ok?" He whispered patting her head.
"She will be fine..!! Dar gai hai bohat..!!"
Manik said in a calm tone.
"Manik..!! I was too much worried for her
yaar..!! You will not believe what was her
condition..!! Agar tjhy kuch ho jata tou shaid
Nandini..!!" Cabir said sadly.
"Preshan mat ho..!! Theek ho jye ge..!!"
Manik said in a reassuring tone and Cabir
nodded.
"I have asked everyone to go home..!! I'll be
right outside..!! If you need something just
tell me..!!" Cabir told.
"Ohhh no Cabir tu ghar ja..!! I'll be fine
Nandini hai mery pass..!!" Manik objected
after a lot of convincing Cabir agreed to go
home. "Cabir..!! What about Mayank..!!"
Manik asked in a low tone.
"He is dead..!! We had followed Nandini
with commissioner Uncle and he shoot
him..!!" Cabir told hatredly and Manik
nodded.
"Ok you go home..!!" Manik said and Cabir
left. Manik again adjusted Nandini in his
arms and she opened her eyes immediately.
"Manik..!!" She whispered panickly.
"Shhh..!! I am right here Nandini..!! I am
with you..!" Manik said and calm her down.
Nandini look at him and he smiled. Manik
slowly leaned forward and took Nandini's
lips in a passionate kiss. Once again tears
started rolling down of her cheeks
remembering everything. Manik kissed her
and meanwhile he patted her head to calm
her down. Soon he broke the kiss and wiped
her tears.
"No more tears bus..!"Manik said and
pecked her forehead. After countless pecking
and kissing they both fell asleep.
...
"I'll not take these medicines..!! Bohat karwi
hai..!!" Manik said and made a face. Nandini
was trying to give him Medicines from last
one hour and Manik was making faces just
like a baby. He was discharged from the
hospital and was now on complete bed
rest.
"Manik..!! Don't act like a baby..!! Open your
mouth..!!" Nandini was really very annoyed
on his behavior. Her own health was not
good today.
"No..!! I'll not..!!"Manik said angrily and
turned his face.
"Fine..!!" Nandini said angrily and was
about to leave when Manik held her hand.
Manik pull her towards him and with in no
seconds he pinned her on the bed.
"So you will leave me like this..!!" Manik
asked huskily and Nandini shivered. Manik
leaned forward and was about to kiss her
when Nandini turned her face. Manik was
taken aback a little. She never ever say no
him then now what?
"Nandini..!! What happened?" Manik said
frowning his face.
"Manik..!! Abhi nahi..!! Please..!! Just let me
go please..!!" Nandini said in a low tone as
she was really not feeling well. She was
feeling nausea.
"Nandini..!! What happened are you ok?"
Manik said with a concern but Nandini
didn't replied. She pushed him aside and
run into bathroom. Manik was too much
worried from her behavior from the
morning she was looking weak and pale. He
walked towards the bathroom and tried to
open it but for the first time to his surprise
door was locked.
...
Nandini was vomiting too much she was
standing on the wash basin from last 15
minutes and Manik was banging the door.
"Aiyappa..!! What wrong with me?" She
thought worriedly and walked outside.
Manik was standing with a worried face.
"Nandini are you ok?" Manik asked
worriedly. Nandini suddenly felt too much
dizzy she held Manik's shoulders for
support. Manik felt like his heartbeat
skipped. First those vomits and now this
dizziness was a torture for Nandini. She
started sobbing and Manik became more
worried.
"Manik..!!" Nandini sobbed holding him
tightly. Manik lead her to the bed and
made her sit. She was still sitting clutching to
him.
"Sshhh..!! Jaan..!! You will be fine..!! I'll call
the doctor..!!" Manik tried to calm her down
but she fainted. Now Manik's tension had no
boundaries he immediately called Janvi
aunty and Nayonika.
"Aunty look na..! Nandini fainted..!!Is she
ok..!!" Manik was crying now. Nayonika and
Janvi were smiling. "What the hell why are
you both smiling..!!" Manik shouted.
"Oye handsome calm down..!! Go inside
Nandini will herself tell you..!!" Janvi said
politely and Manik run inside the room.
Nandini was sitting with her head leaned
with the bed board and she had a very
content smile on her face.
"Nandini are you ok? Tum theek ho na?"
Manik asked almost crying cupping her
cheeks.
"Mani..!! Relax..!!" Nandini said smilingly. "I
want to tell you something..!!" She said
blushing hard.
"What?" Manik asked suspiciously.
"Manik..!! I..!! You...!! Wo..!!" Nandini was
out of words.
"What I? What you? Say it clearly
Nandini..!!" Manik asked angrily.
"You are going to be a father..!!" Nandini
said in one go and shyly hugged him.
Manik was stunned on his place. Had he
heard right? Father?
"Oh God..!! Tum sach bool rahi ho?" Manik
asked breaking the hug and made her look
in his eyes. Nandini nodded happily. "Ufff
Nandini I love you so much..!!" Saying that
Manik sealed his lips with hers. Kissing her
madly but this time something different he
was more gentle because he didn't wanted to
hurt his baby.
