Part 10

When both of them came out of their room they saw there's light in Nanu's room. Manik walked in opening the door.

"Kya hua Nanu, aap theek tou hai na..." he noticed that her cane was fallen on the ground. He picked it up and kept it on the side.

"Kuch nahi puttar... mere ghutno mein bahut dard ho raha tha... tou Maine socha ki dawaai kha loon per dawaai ka dibba nahi mil raha aur ussi chakkar mein meri lakdi gir gayi.." Nanu said.
"Maine tum logon ki neend kharaab kar di na.." she saw Nandini also came inside her room.

"Kaisi baatein kar rahi hai aap Nanu.. aap Mujhe ya Manik sir ko awaaz de deti naa.. utthne ki Kya zaroorath thi... agar gir jaati tou..." Nandini found her medicine box from the shelf and took out the pain killer for her and gave it with a glass full of water.

Manik always gets annoyed hearing Manik sir from her mouth. But he didn't say anything.
"Aap araam se late jaayiye main aapke pairon per massage kar deti hoon..." she took out the messaging oil and said.

"Koi nahi puttar.. dawaai se theek ho jaayega... tu jaa ker aaraam kar..." Nanu hesitated, now that she knew from which family Nandini belongs to.

"Kyu Nanu Kya main apne Amms ki maalish nahi karti hoon... waise hi main aapki bhi kar sakti hoon.. bas ab aaraam se late jaaiye..." Nandini made Nanu lay down on her back and stared messaging her knees.

"Manu puttar tu jake ke aaraam kar..." Nanu said Manik was once again impressed by Nandini's down to earth nature.

"Haan Nanu.." and he left the room leaving both of them behind. He went back to his room and relaxed for sometime. Thinking may be Nandini will come back to him in his room once she was done messaging Nanu's knees... but it's been more than half an hour and still no sign of Nandini. He got up and went to Nanu's room again.

He slowly opened the door and checked if Nanu is already asleep or not. But to his surprise Nandini was also sleeping near his Nanu's feet. She was done with the messaging and after covering Nanu with the blanket she started pressing her feet sitting on the floor beside her bed. And when she fell asleep she too didn't know.

A very beautiful smile crept on Manik's face. He walked to the night stand and closed the light. He adjusted Nanu's blanket and make sure that she is fast asleep. Then he lift Nandini in his arms and took her to his bed room. He placed her on the bed very quietly and covered her with the duvet and went to close the door. He came back to the bed and lay down beside her. He bend forward and gave her a light peck on her forehead.

'Gawwd she is cute and beautiful... I'm so lucky that I found her... keep her in my life always...' he prayed in his heart and holding her hands he also drifted into deep slumber as he was also too tired.

Next morning Nandini's sleep was broken with the melodious voice of Amms who is rehearsing as usual. Every day at 5 in the morning she goes to the terrace and rehearse to enhance her voice. Nandini got up from the bed and checked her surroundings. She thought how did she came here. Last thing she remembered she was pressing Nanu's legs. Then she don't remembers anything. She turned around to see that Manik was sleeping peacefully in the same way holding her hand. She smiled heartily seeing him. She bend down and kissed his forehead without disturbing his slumber.
She takes her hand away from his grip and before he wakes up she slowly came out of his room. She checked Nanu and she was also sleeping peacefully.

She came into the main house and before any one could notice her she walked fast to her room. As soon as she came inside and locked the door and turned she saw that Navya was sitting on the edge of her bed yawning still sleepy.
