Next morning ; Malhotra Mansion

The trio were having their breakfast with random discussions. The atmosphere inside Malhotra Mansion as well as the all Malhotras was quite settled then. They were overcoming from their faked happy mask to real relaxed smiles.

" okay guys. M done. Lets leave for office papa. " Nandini said after having her breakfast. Maan also was done and stood
up and wore his blazer.

Suddenly Niyonika remembered something and stop them. " heyy listen. Nandu. "

" haan mom" she turned and replied.

" ohh actually I just forgot to inform you guys something. " Niyonika said. And Maan asked her " what ? "

" oh Maan do you remember Mr. Mehra ? Mr. Sameer Mehra. Actually tonight is his son's wedding reception at Lonavala. And he invited us personally. So office se jaldi aana. Then we will leave at evening. And I was thinking of taking Nandu also with us." She replied.

Maan thought for some time might be trying to recalling Mr Mehra then replied

" oh yes. Sameer Mehra. Yaa he called me last day but was in meeting. Okay. Cool. We are going. Nandu ? " he turned
around Nandini as per asking for her.

" ermm.. " she was confused but decided to agree to them then suddenly they heard Manik's yawning behind and remembered.

" what's up guys. " Manik walked
towards them and sat beside Niyonika keeping his lazy sleepy head on her shoulder.

" ohh Manik are you free tonight? "
Niyonika asked Him ruffling his hairs.

" why ? " he asked as usual closing his eyes like tried to sleep.

" actually we are going for one party tonight at Lonavala. Toh if Mr. Rockstar has some of his precious Time free then he
is also invited. "

Maan as usual pulled his
son leg and the two ladies giggling.

" what's so funny ? " Manik glared at three of them angrily And other started
suppressing their laughs .

" and for your kind attention I am genuinely busy tonight. " he replied with attitude and Niyonika teased him saying

" that's exactly what Maan asked. "
Manik rolled his eyes in frustration seeing his family giggles and then sighed
" whatever."

" okay Toh we three are going. "
Niyonika said smiling and Manik frowned and looked at Nandini. And said " three ?? Who three? Oh you mean Nandu too ? But
she is not going with you. Hain na ? "

he turned his questioning gaze towards her as he was asking for her assurance. And Maan and Niyonika gave a confused look.
Nandini smiled in side her heart and replied

" yaah mom I am not coming.
Actually I am going out with Manik. Today is his sixth album launch that too with The Platinum Musics. "

" what ?? " both the parents shouted in unison.

" really? Is it so? Wow. " Niyonika
exclaimed and hugged her son. Manik smiled and kissed her temple.

" that's a very good news. Congrats son.
Platinum music is such a big name. Umm. I am proud of you. But I will be happy if you will inform us about it yourself. "

he faked little anger but he was
happy for one reason that Manik as usual shared his all happiness first with Nandini.
It gave him some hope for their future.

" dad. !!! " Manik was guilty of that and hugged his dad.

" ohh it's okay my love. Congrats. "
" okay then Manik and Nandini will go to his party. And we Will leave for Lonavala around 5 okay. " Maan said the final
decision and left for office with Nandini.
