Breakfast table

Whole family was having breakfast having some talks in between. But Nandini was lost in her thoughts.

"How will I get to know about his feelings." thought Nandini seeing Manik.

"Nandu, why are not you eating anything. I am watching you from starting. Eat properly beta." Said Neyonika.

"I am not feeling hungry neyo mom. I will eat later. please" Said Nandini pleadingly.

"No. Making these faces will be of no use for you. Eat Bacha." Said Neyonika and started feeding her herself.

"Don't you think Nandini is behaving different nowadays muku? " Whispered Cabir in Mukti's ear.

"Yes. In school also she was not concentrating on the class. Most of the time she was zoomed out somewhere and if I or Navya asked her she just said that I am thinking about homework or some question." Mukti whispered back in Cabir's ear.

"Something is running in her mind. I need to find it." thought Cabir.

Nandini's room

"I have to think something. How to get to know about his feelings?" Said Nandini.

"How to get to know about whose feelings nandu? Whom are you talking about? And about what feelings?" Said Cabir entering the room. Nandini got shocked listening Cabir

"Tell me nandu, I am asking you something?" Asked Cabir.

"Nothing Bhai. You must have heard something wrong." Said Nandini.

"Nandu I am not deaf. I have heard clearly you were saying something about feelings, that how to get to know about his feelings. " Said Cabir to which Nandini just bent her head down.

"Now you will hide things from me nandu. Ok, if you don't want to tell me, I am going." Said Cabir and started to walk out of her room.

"Stop Cabir Bhai." She said holding his hand.

"I trust you, actually.... I love someone." Said Nandini closing her eyes.

"What? Who? From when? "Asked Cabir shocked.

"Whom do you love Nandini?" Asked Cabir again when Nandini didn't answered.

"Sorry Cabir Bhai but I can't tell you." Said Nandini.

"And why is that?" Asked Cabir listening her.

"Bhai I can't, please understand" said Nandini not wanting to tell him her love towards Manik. She was fearing about his reaction.

"Ok if you don't want to tell. Now I understand you calls me Bhai just for namesake you don't actually mean it. But Nandini I had made you my sister by heart not for just namesake. I will get to know about the boy whether you tell me or not. And ya thank you for showing me my position in your life. I will not trouble you from now onwards." Saying this Cabir started to walk towards the door.

Nandini became shocked listening his words. She held his hand stopping him from going and hugged him crying.

"Bhai how can you say that. I call you Bhai because I mean it." Said Nandini sobbing. Cabir tried to stop her but she was not stoping. 

"Nandu please yaar stop crying. I was just joking so that you tell me everything. I didn't mean even a word of it. I swear." said Cabir listening which Nandini stopped and saw him.

"pakka?" asked nandu cutely to which he smiled and noded.

"Dare you say again that you are not my brother. I say you Bhai because I mean it." Said Nandini to which Cabir smiled.

"Now tell me who were you talking about? " Said Cabir.

"Bhai you know him." Said Nandini.

"Nandu I am waiting for the name." Said Cabir.

"Bhaiilovemanik." Said Nandini in one go closing her eyes.

"Nandu say slowly. I didn't understand even a word you said." Said Cabir.

"Bhai I love Manik." Said Nandini slowly and waited for his reaction.

Cabir remained silent for sometime.

"What? Really" said Cabir.

"Oh my god I am really happy nandu. Thank god I thought you fell in love with someone else." Said Cabir happily.

"You are happy?" Asked Nandini.

"Obviously. Is this even a question to ask. I am more than happy. I have always dreamt of you being bhai's wife." Said Cabir to which Nandini widen her eyes and blushed listening wife.

"Now why are you getting shy. You love Bhai then obviously you will be his wife." Said Cabir teasing her.

"I love him but he doesn't love me." Said Nandini sadly.

"And who said you that? Did you asked Bhai." Asked Cabir.

"No but.... I don't know. He doesn't talk to me nicely. He always make fun of me and also teases me. And yes he scolds me also." Said Nandini.

"So what. That doesn't mean he hates you. And as much as I know Bhai he scolds you because he cares for you. And I think he loves you too." Said Cabir.

"Do you really think this Bhai." Asked Nandini hopefully.

"Don't you remember in childhood he doesn't let anyone tease you and scolds you. If anyone does then they have to bear his anger." Said Cabir.

"I remember Bhai but don't know what had happened to him suddenly that he stopped talking with me. I mean he talks with me but not like before. Earlier we used to talk daily. I always told him everything. He used to listen to me but now he only talks with me if it is related to studies or something important. I don't know even if he considers me as a friend." Said Nandini.

"But Nandini I have seen him. Now also he cares for you like before but just show that he doesn't care. Something must have happened that he detached himself from you." Said Cabir.

"How will we get to know the reason Bhai." Asked Nandini.

"Don't worry. We will think about something. I will help you. " Said Cabir.
