---------------------------------------------------------

Precap-manan lovelife took a step ahead when they kissed accidently.. And later on confronting and discussing they kissed again!!

______________________________________

Few days later...

"dii what's the plan for diwali?"

Nandu asked turning towards navya sipping on her coffee in office canteen.

"um.. Its your first diwali with manik i guess we should throw a big party" navya said thoughtfully..

"it won't be fun.. Lets just have our closest with us.. And party together..." nandini said .

"But you like parties ?" Navya asked surprised

"Actually manik hates parties and he goes all uncomfortable and if it's our first Diwali than we deserve to celebrate with out most comfort. Soo let's just celebrate it with family. "Nandini said making cabir and navya smile widely.

"that sounds cool too.. For diwili let's go to our farm house. It's been soo long.. It would be fun.." navya said excitedly too which cabir and nandu nodded too.

Planning things with cavya nandu moved towards alya's cabin..

"bhabhi are you busy" she asked coming inside the cabin to see alya lost in deep thoughts...

"bhabhi what happened?" Nandu asked sitting beside alya..

"woh nandu I think I am pregnant!!" alya said nervously...

Looking surprised nandu immediately squealed in happiness and hugged alya tightly...

"oh my god.. Oh my god... Bhabhi srsly?? Congratulations... Dhruv bhai ko pata h?? He would be soo happy! And Manik oh my god.. I can't imagine his face... Wow bhabhi!!" Nandu shouted again before hugging her again..

"I know but I am not sure.. Actually i have doubts..and I am nervous too. Because becoming mother means a full stop to my career... Not that I don't want to be a mother.. Because that would be the best gift of my life but i am just scared... M I even ready for this.. "alya said lost in her thoughts..

"bhabhi relax... You are perfect for it.. And the nine months when you will have that baby in your stomach you will be prepared to take care of him the way you take care of whole malhotra family.. And about career we all will manage baby.. You can take leave for the time being.. But later when we all will learn to manage our schedule you can join back!! And don't worry first let's get it confirmed than talk about it to dhruv bhai.. And take whatever you feel right..no one is forcing you!! "Nandu asked slowly while alya's posture relaxed a bit...

Both talked a little and than after some work left for hospital...

" umm.. The reports will come till tommorow morning.. "the doctor said..

"We will collect that.. Call us when it's ready" Nandu said and with further discussion left for malhotra mansion with a promise taken by Alya that it should be kept secret for the time being...

..

"waise nandu you were having any work in afternoon when you came to my office?" alya asked suddenly remembering about it..

"Ohh yes... Actually dii and jiju were saying that on diwali lets go to our farmhouse... It would be a break for all of us.. And some change too.. But if you are not well than it Okey!!"

"aare it's perfect... If the reports are positive than I can break the news there... Let's discuss about it with others.." alya said happily and both moved towards there room to fresh n up..

The plan was confirmed... Everyone was going to leave at afternoon and reach there till night..

And as next day was diwali they would spend the whole day there and leave the next morning...

Manik was standing in front of his wardrobe with totally confused face when nandu entered inside..

"What happened manik?" Nandu asked moving towards him..

"I am not able to decide what to pack for the farmhouse" manik said making a baby face...

"Aare take something comfortable na.."Nandu said standing in front her of him looking at his wardrobe.

"But Nandu I am not able to select!!" Manik said making faces..

"And since when you started worrying about your clothes?"Nandu asked turning towards him raising her eyebrows.

"Aab perfect wife ke liye merko perfect hubby toh dikhna padega na"Manik said cutely making Nandu smile wider.

"Tum already perfect ho"Nandu said caressing his hairs.

"Let me be more perfect than"Manik said pulling her closer .

But soon they heard a loud cry .shocked both ran downstairs to see alya lying unconscious on floor.

Running towards her Nandu brought water to sprinkle over her while Manik lifted her and took her to dhruv-alya's room.

"Manik call the docter"Nandu said and started sprinkling water on alya.

Soon docter arrived and started checking her and Dhruv and mukti too arrived.

After checking

"She is pregnant.i told her before also to take care because she may be pregnant but I guess it was because of tiredness she fell unconscious". Docter said.

As soon as those words came out of docter's mouth there was a pin drop silence for a moment.

"Alya"Dhruv was the first one to break the silence.he sat beside alya who was sleeping peacefully due to medicine effects.

"Manik record bhai's reaction"Nandu whispered to a shock Manik who gave Nandu a blank look.

But ignoring it Nandu herself started recording it.

"Bhabhi pregnant h? Mtlb main bua banane wali ho" mukti screamed happily.

Her screamed brought everyone back on earth.

Manik too started jumping while Nandu was just looking at Dhruv who was staring alya blankly.

"Bhai what happened?" Nandu asked

"Guys don't take me wrong.but pls alya ke samne kuch react mt krna pls coz agar Woh baby ke liye ready nhi hogi toh main usspe kio pressure nhi dalana Chahta. "Dhruv said to which everyone nodded.

"Bhai she is happy from this news"Nandu said calmly.

"Tumhe kaise pata?"Dhruv asked turning towards Nandu.

"Bas pata h .aap abhi Bhabhi ke pass betho hum bahar jaate h"Nandu said to which everyone nodded and moved

Outside.

"Nandu tell Cabir and navya to cancel the trip because alya is not well."mukti said sitting on sofa.

"Di no need of it. Actually Bhabhi office mein bahut stressed thi same baat ke liye and we talked about it. She was ready for coming on the trip and also it will be great start for Bhai and Bhabhi."Nandu said to mukti who nodded smilingly and moved towards kitchen to bring sweets for everyone.

"Manik tum kuch nhi bologe?"Nandu looked at Manik who was silent till now.

"Nandu Woh baby ..main chacha ..tum chachi..I can't believe it..pata h Dhruv Bhai was always like a father to Me issliye aaj yeh sun kr aisa lg raha h Jaise main Papa banane waala ho" Manik poured out his heart while listening his last line nandu's cheeks got pink.

"Manik baby na ek blessing hota h. jab yeh baby aayega na toh hum dono baby ko sambhala sikhenge and I am sure tum bahut ache chacha banoge"Nandu said sitting beside him.

"Pakka?"

"Yes..Jaise tum best husband bane waise hi chachu bhi banoge"Nandu said holding his hands while he smiled at her wholeheartedly.

"Go and talk to mukti Di she must be needing someone right now and I am packing our bags."Nandu said sweetly and moved towards Thier room.

____

Soon it was time to leave.

They ordered a mini bus soo that alya too can go comfortably..

Everyone was playing games chilling discussing.

Manan were sitting in the corner so because of which they weren't much visible to others..

Manik was playing with her hairs while nandu was peacefully resting keeping her head on his chest.

Time truly changed she thought in her mind.

Last time when they were travelling together she was almost silent and away from manik and here these two were trying there best to stick with eachother..

Everyone else didn't even disturbed them giving couple there much needed time and privacy..

It was late night when they reached the farmhouse.

Moving inside everyone slept tired from the journey with manan hugging eachother.

Next day

It was early morning when the ladies of the house were all clad up in beautiful attires instructing servants about the decorations .

Alya was asked to rest hence she was in her room with dhruv.

Mukti and navya were busy in there work while nandu silently moved towards temple where manik was doing his morning prayer .

She silently stood besind manik . It was her favourite job by now. To pray together with manik .

When manik opened his eyes and looked beside him he was mesmerized . It was a small family celebration but as it was manan's first Diwali nandini decided to wear light yet elegant dress complementing her body . She looked simple yet elegant .

Feeling a strong gaze on her nandu opened her eyes to watch manik staring at her totally lost .

"Beautiful" manik whispered before holding nandu's hands .

Nandu comfortably moved closer to manik keeping her head in his chest.

She knew manik wants to come close to her but won't ask for it soo she herself moved closer to him.

Whereas manik tightly hugged nandu.

"Happy Diwali wifey" manik whispered lovingly.

"Happy Diwali hubby"nandu said looking towards his face still in his hold

Not able to control himself manik pecked Nandu's lips surprising her.

She giggled at his act and kissed his cheeks.

"You look beautiful ." Manik said looking at the angel in front of him.

"You are looking handsome too " nandu said smiling whole heartedly.

Nandu choosed a comfortable kurta for manik which was complimenting his biceps and was twinning with her outfit.

Both moved outside to witness whole family laughing sitting together when they witnessed manan together.

Cabir-aare aa Gaye dono. Nandu idhar aa.

Cabir gestured nandini to sit with him.

Cabir-soo we were thinking as it's your first Diwali as a malhotra soo what special gift do you want?

Nandini- gift(smiling like an idiot )- I want a special edition hand bag you designed.One day of shopping with you, my all pending treats from you , your latest video game collection , aap ko woh ganda sa perfume change krna padega which you have started using . And ek second let me think of gifts.

Nandini who was blabbering all those demands continuously didn't realised the amused faces of everyone except manik who found her adorable and instantly wanted to note all the details soo that he can fulfil it himself.

Cabir- ek second ek second. In short you want me to gift you my self and my property with all my lifetime collections. Cool !!

Cabir said sarcastically to which nandu made a pout.

Navya- nandu we were talking about your and manik's gift. It's not only your but manik's Diwali too . Soo ask for something you both can enjoy or use.

Nandu looked at manik who was smiling at her than at navya and started thinking for the gift.

Cabir- manik tu Bata what to you want as your gift?

Manik who was just smiling at nandini got confused and nervous and started looking everywhere but him.

Manik- cabir tu dekh le I don't know.

Nandu nodded for the same.

Cabir- okey than we have booked your tickets to Switzerland. Actually we didn't know which place to but nandu wanted to go to Switzerland first soo we booked tickets for there.

Nandu- why are we going to Switzerland but?

Mukti-for your hooneymoon baby.

Listening to honeymoon nandu widened her eyes and looked at manik who was by now all sweaty and nervous.

Dhruv- aare blush krna ki zarorat nhi h. Tumhari Abhi Abhi shaadi hoyi h and you guys should spend sometime together.

Cabir- booking and all sab done h . Bas packing krni h.

Alya- next Saturday ki flight h .

Nandu- MATLAB after 6 days . Dii itni jldi office mein work kaise hoga office mein ?

Cabir-chotthi you don't need to worry about that .

Dhruv- manik you too. We'll manage everything.

Soon everyone were busy doing something or another whereas nandu was sitting at the entrance busy making rangoli and beside her manik was sitting on pretext of helping her but instead he was just staring her. Obvious of his gaze nandu was just blushing and doing her work.

Everyone noticed it but didn't said anything. They too were loving the essence of growing love between the two .

Later evening everyone had dinner and were bursting firecrackers together .

Manan were standing together . at a side watching everyone

Nandu-you don't like firecrackers ?

Manik- nope . They are soo noisy and polluting .

Nandu - come with me.

Manik looked at her before following her till the terrace.

Nandu bought a sky lantern lamp and asked manik to hold it and herself started lighting it.

Manik- how did you know I love sky lamps

Nandu-alya bhabhi told me.

Manik- Nandu woh

Nandini- sshh . Let's enjoy the silence.

Manik smiled at her and they together realised the lamp.

Manik smiled widely seeing the lamp whereas nandu blushed seeing his smile.

They both were standing close to each other . Manik almost back hugging her.

Manik- happy Diwali nandu

Nandu-happy Diwali manik.

Manik- I have a gift for you .

Nandu turned towards him asking through her eyes what?

Manik - woh I observed that you don't carry heavy jewellry and you believe in no limits and forever. Soo I found it suitable. It's okey if you don't like it.

Nandu- manik tum pagal ho. I loved it idiot. It's soo beautiful . Thank you.

Manik- welcome.

Nandu- acha neeche ho .

Manik bent his face towards her only to receive a hard peck on his cheek.

Smiling like a idiot he looked at her lips only to see her smiling widely and pulling her towards himself slowly placed his lips on her kissing her gently.
