"Aap kehna kya chahti hai"neyo asks her...

"Main aapko uss ladki ki saccchai batana chahti hu..."cabir's mom says seriously...

"Sacchai...kaisi sacchai"neyo asks in confused tone...

"Voh..voh ladki..voh jaisi dikhti hai..vaisi hai nahi"cabir's mom continues....

"Matlab"neyo asks...

"Matlab yahi ..ki ab aapko voh acchi lagegi....lekin dheere dheere voh aapke manik ko apne kabu main kar legi...aapne abhi dekha naa..manik ne kya kiya...voh chahta toh aapke saath aarti kar sakta tha..kyunki aap maa hai uski aur kisi ki bhi zindagi main maa ki ehmiyat sabse jyaada hoti hai..lekin yaha...usne aisa nahi kiya...usne uss ladki ke saath aarti ki..joh ki uski zindagi main sirf kuch saalon pehle hi aayi hai.. "cabir's mom was filling her mind with negative thoughts...

"Main aapse keh rahi hu..satark rahiye..varna kahi aapka beta aage jaake aapko pehchanne se hi inkaar naa kar de"she continues while neyo head's snaps at her in shock...

"Mera kaam tha aapko aagaah karna...ab aage aapki marzi"she leaves leaving a confused+shocked+scared+horrified neyo....

***********
"Manu manu..suno naa"nandini was trying to talk with manik..

"Nandini...tumhe dikh nahi raha manik guest ke saath busy hai...usse disturb mat karo"neyo says coldly while manik did'nt heard a word as he was busy in attending guest...

Nandini pouts sadly and again tries to call manik but neyo held her hand and drag her at corner....

And what followed was harshful words from neyo to nandini...

She looks at manik who was attending guests with teary eyes and immediately leaves from there...

For a second neyo too felt bad but then she remembers cabir's mom's talks..and again her expression was cold...

And here manik was unaware of these things....Inviting the big storm in their lives...

**************

Nandini goes near cabir who who was standing at a distance lost in his thoughts.....

Cabir's trance was broken when he felt some warmth...he looks down and saw his kitten who was hugging him hiding her face in his chest...

"Kya hua mere kitten ko"cabir asks hugging her back with a smile...but next second his smile vanished hearing her words....

"Mumma"she cries hugging him...

"Nandu..mera baccha..kya hua aapko...kisi ne kuch kaha kya..."he asks and tries to break the hug but she was holding him tight as if she will lose him if he broke the hug....

"Mumma...mumma ki yaad aa rahi hai...mumma chahiye ..mumma"she was rubbing her nose on his chest while sniffing...

Cabir was now worried for her...because he knows whenever she feels alone she misses her mumma alot..her mumma who died when she was just 9 years old....

But the thing is why is she feeling alone...

"Kitten...aap upar room main jao...main aapke manu ko upar bhejhta hu ok..."cabir says cupping her face after breaking the hug.....he pecks her forehead...

"Ab sirf manik hi hai joh kitten ko theek kar sakta hai...there is something which she is hiding"cabir thinks looking at her retreating figure....

****************

"Nandini..ab bacchi nahi ho tum joh har vakt manu manu karti rahogi..."

"Kabhi toh manik ko shaanti se jeene do...kyun har baar usse pareshaan karti rehti ho"

"Baksh do mere manik ko..shaanti se jeene do usse...chali jao yaha se"

Neyo's words were ringing in her mind...

She was laying on bed holding pillow close to her chest...

"Mumma....manu..."she was repeating same lines while tears were trickling down her eyes....

*******************

Navya enters in malhotra mansion in disguise look....

She starts searching manik and cabir...

She was not able to find them in living room so she walks upstairs while her head was covered with pallu.....

She was passing by corridors.. suddenly she heard some voice...

"Sun...boss ka phone tha..unhone kaha hai ki shyaam ki aarti ke vakt hume uss ladki ko kidnap karna hai...usse pehle koi kuch nahi karega"one man says while navya was shocked hearing this...

Only 30 minutes are left for evening aarti....she thought worriedly..

"Lekin aarti ke hi vakt kyun....usse pehle kyun nahi"other man asks...

"Kyunki tab sab aarti main honge aur humara raasta saaf hoga..hum aasaani se usse le jaa sakte hai..ab jaldi karo..pehle hume usse dhundna hoga"first man says and they starts leaving...

But by mistake a vase fell down from her hands alerting the goons...

Navya immediately runs into adjacent room and hides in cupboard unaware of the fact that it was manan's room...

And here nandini was so lost in herself that she fails to notice the intruder(navya)

****************

"Cabir..kya hua..tu mujhe aise yaha kyun leke aa gaya"manik asks confusingly to cabir who dragged manik in one isolated corner...

"Manik...tu upar jaa..kitten ke paas"cabir says...

"Kyun..kya hua..nandini theek hai na...bol na cabir"he freaked out in worry...

"Relax...theek hai voh...bas tu upar jaake usse baat kar...she was looking disturb...manik...i don't know why but i m not getting any good vibes from all this..ek ajeeb se dar lag raha hai...pata nahi kyun..."cabir says in tensed tone...

"Manik...tu jaa aur baat kar usse..puch ki hua kya hai...mujhe dar lag raha hai"cabir further continues...

"Don't worry..main dekhta hu"manik assures him and heads towards his room...

While cabir prays to god to keep his kitten safe and happy....

***************
"Baccha..kya hua..aap yaha akele kyun bethe ho..."manik asks when he found her sitting alone in room...

Navya who was hiding in cupboard was able to see them through hole...

"Kuch nahi...mujhe sona hai.."she says with blank expression and lay down facing her back to him...

"Nandini...baccha kuch hua hai kya...batao apne manu ko...."manik asks laying down beside her and hugs her from back...

"Kuch nahi manu...mujhe bas neend aa rahi hai..i want to sleep"she lied digging her face in pillow hiding her tears...

Manik thought that she must be tired so he covers her with blanket and leaves after pecking her forehead...

Precap:something shocking....
