Next day morning was at 11 for every one, as they all slept at 5 in the morning. Manik was sleeping couch, Medha was hugging Nandini and sleeping when Nyeonika woke up. She smiled, looked at Nandini her face plate and plain. She cresses her cheeks and kissed her forehead.

" we have heal her Manik, we have too as soon as possible. She is a broken soul now. We have to make smile again with happiness" she again kissed her.

Nyeonika came with brunch, as already twelve. Medha left the room, Manik and Nandini are sleeping. She kicked her son "badmash!!! Get up, it's lunch time"
"Mom just five more minutes"
"Manik get up I have to wake up Nandu"
"She didn't get up till now??? Is she ok???how can I sleep leaving her" he came running to her
"Shut up Manik is absolutely fine she is just sleeping peace fully, go go and freshen up"
Manik relaxed, he wanted to kiss her forehead badly being nyeonika besides him, he didn't

Nandini got up, took bath and came out wearing saree. She is sitting in front of mirror brushing her hair. She kept all the jewellery which was kept there by Nyeonika. After looking at herself tears bloomed up

"I got married, I am having mangalsutra, I became Mrs Malhotra. What you did good!!! I asked you this but...., you snatched my appa, my family everything. My 22 years life became a lie. Why? Good why? Why only me? Me appa were like open book then why he thrown me out like a garbage? Why?" She is crying thinking all this

Manik who came to take his watch from closet saw Nandini lost in her thoughts. He came to her. Wiped tears, "things will change Nandu!!! We have to accept them whether they are good or bad, you know your appa very well na then search for the hidden words which he did it say may be he is protecting from keep away from him? May be... some thing is missing? What is it?" Manik started searching her face.
Nandini too checked herself in mirror, "aaa this once one you didn't put sindoor, shall I?" Manik asked
She nodded.
Manik added sin door to her beautiful face. She closed her eyes. He kissed her forehead softly

"Can I ask you one question will you answer me?" Manik asked
"Yes"
"Why are finding difficulty in calling me with my name, in all these days, you either called me Malhotra or did call me, I think you took times my name as Manik, aaa yes, why so??? You didn't like my name should I change it?"
She blushed instantly, lowered her face started biting her lips. Manik got an urge of kissing them madly but controlled.
"I am waiting please"
"In our house wife can't take husband name"
"Ooo it's like that, I heard you appa calling your madam, means husband too can't take name of wife?"
She nodded yes
"Then how can I call you?? And you would never call me Manik?" He asked sadly
She again nodded yes
"O god!!!" He started to walk then he stroked something came back fast "wait........ we got married just yesterday but you didn't take my name from day one"
She had no answer so she want to run away " mom asked me to come down, I am going" she started to walk, Manik stopped her "answer me and go"
"I don't know"
"What you don't know?"
"What you are talking about, I called you by name"
" no you didn't I remember"
"I did" she started to walk
Manik was about to stop her but Medha came in, Manik took back step.

Manik and Nandini, came to reception hall by 8pm. Guests already started. Manik looked at Nandini keenly. He said in low voice "you are looking breathtakingly beautiful"
Nandini just thanked him
Manik felt sad.

Manik learnt one thing about Nandini that she keeps silent when she don't want to answer. Manik want to divert her from her thinking.

All four came and signalled Manik. He nodded. "I want you to sit" he forwarded his hand which Nandini took and walked down to stage. Medha came and took seat besides Nandini.

Manik walked to stage, all fab5 took positions with their instruments. Cabir came forward " Nandini!!!! Welcome to our world, Manik is our buddy, band member, family everything. Welcome to our gang."

Manik took guitar, gestured Nandini "for only you" and started to sing

Rehunma
Tu jo mila sab mil gaya
Dil ki namaazein jaake
Pahunchi falak se aage
Toh jaake paaya tujhko
Mere rehnuma
Mujhko mera rabb mil gaya
Baahon se aage tere
Duniya nahi hai meri
Rakhle mujhko yahin
Mere rehnuma
Jo naa bhaaye teri nazar ko
Dekhungi naa main phir woh nazara
Tu jo mile toh chhod doon khud ko
Tujhme kahin hai mera kinara
Bas tu hi tu mujhe yaad hai
Dil ki namaazein jaake
Pahunchi falak se aage
Toh jaake paaya tujhko
Mere rehnuma
Guzri hoon jab se
Main tere dar se
Hasne lagi hoon
Main khul ke rehbar
Dard se tere rista juda toh
Ab muskuraate hai mere manjar
Haan Rabb ki mujhe saugaat hai
Dil ki namaazein jaake
Pahunchi falak se aage
Toh jaake paaya tujhko
Mere rehnuma
Baahon se aage tere
Duniya nahi hai meri
Rakhle mujhko yahin
Mere rehnuma.

Manik gestured a thank you to Nandini. She smiled a little.
Alya came to Nandini and gave her Veena
"Come on Nandini this will be our new beginning"
Nandini wiped her tears turning back and took her seat with Veena
Manik started to play.

Ishq bhi kiya re maula
Dard bhi diya re maula
Oo... Oo...
Ishq bhi kiya re maula
Dard bhi diya re maula
Yun toh khush raha magar kuch reh gaya baaki
Faqr bhi kiya re maula
Ilm bhi liya re maula
Zindagi jiya magar kuch reh gaya baaki
Tu nahi dikha re maula
Sab nahin bika re maula
Aur jahaan ruka wahaan pe
Jaam hai khaali
Dum taram ra ra...

Chaah ki kami mein tu hai
Aankh ki nami mein tu hai
Aas mein tu, pyaas mein tu
Saans mein tu
Tu bewajah haseen tu hai
Jo dikhe ussi mein tu hai
Aksh mein tu, raksh mein tu, jaan mein tu
Ishq bhi kiya re maula
Dard bhi diya re maula
Yun toh khush raha magar kuch reh gaya baaki
Faqr bhi kiya re maula
Ilm bhi liya re maula
Zindagi jiya magar kuch reh gaya baaki
Tu nahi dikha re maula
Sab nahin bika re maula
Aur jahaan ruka wahaan pe
Jaam hai khaali
Dum taram ra ra...

Zeest ki sacchaiyon se, rooh ke gehraiyon se
Raat ki tanhaiyon se, tu zar zara
Zeest ki sacchaiyon se, rooh ke gehraiyon se
Raat ki tanhaiyon se, tu zar zara
Dum taram ra ra...

Manik completed song whole hall is silent. They drowned in his voice. Nyeonika was the first one to clap all added her. Nandini is in tears. Her face became more pale.

For receptions guests were all celebraties. Some film stars, music producers, business partners, relatives. Manik want to show world that he married Nandini. So that if at all any one leak the need of kidnapping or keeping her three days does effect her dignity.

Manik even made an arrangement of live telecast of their marriage and reception. So that murthy can watch Nandini marriage.

Here in murthy mansion things changed instead of Nandini marriage, Naren and Navya got married. Though it's house of marriage it looks like a house who just had a death.

Murthy's brothers and sons are in boiling anger on Malhotra's they want to kill Manik, but murthy strictly warned everyone not to mess up if they want Nandini to be happy.

Manik and Nandini marriage news was like fire spread in business world. All have a news that Manik and Nandini were in love that is fab5 came and eloped her from her marriage, now these two are marrying. Murthy's are against this marriage that's why nobody attended the marriage.

In murthy's house it's only Rishi murthy. He knows that Nandini will be at her best. He knows Malhotra's very well, every one thinks as Malhotra's are rivals to Murthy's but no, he knows why they hate them. He also knows that as a family they are golden heart people.

Murthy is specially impressed by nyeonika. She takes care business, Manik and whole house responsibilities, still she is best friend to Manik. She is happy going lady. Spreads smiles always. Loves her son the most.

Murthy knows once Nandini enters the family their is no rivalry between them if he stops his family. That's what he is doing. Rishab is fighting with him all the time but he is not in mood to listen. He is just praying god to give strength to Nandini to get up from this tragedy.

He knows Nandini is vulnerable state. She is in pain but he also knows that Manik and nyeonika will make her rise. They will make her happy.
