abhi:but how come I dont know abt him?”as he still doesnt know the fact…nandini is silent as she wanted manik to speak sumthng to her b4 anyone else strt questioning her…Manik turned around nd said”I want to speak wth her”in a stern voice which really scared her..she has no idea of the upcoming events..she is scared..Manik strtd walking upwards nd she followed him..In the meanwhile Ayush explained that nandu came to know Raghav is uncle only after she is kidnapped ,she doent wanna remember that awful thing nd so she didnt share wth abhi or anyone
MANIK’S ROOM:
Manik nd Nandini entered inside the room…silence fell in the room..complete silence…a silence which is piercing her heart..he is standing on the side of window lukng outside facing his back to nandu..she is badly in tears..his one hand is on the side wall…while other is in his sherwani pocket..she isnt unable to take the silence anymore..its been 15 min since they enterd but manik is silent nd not even lukng at her nd she unable to take it ran 2wrds him nd hugged him tight frm back..now it’s shown that actually manik is in tears..he closed his eyes as soon as she collided wth his back..
Nandini:manik..pls forgive me..I was totally scared..pls manik”she sobbed badly..he turned around,cupped her face,wiped away her tears..nd she is shocked but then he distnced himself a little frm her..she now broke.
Manik:u ddint trust me nandini”uff!!!this 1 statement of his made her heart break in pieces..his voice wth grief nd pain
Nandu:Manik..i ..I was”she is actually out of words..how to xplain him..
Manik:that ..u were afraid..that may b after knowing the truth I will leave u..ryt?”nd he completed her left over words..she strtd lukng downwards.
He moved away frm her nd strtd walking..
Manik:Till now i thought that my father left me nd my mom..he is living in U.S ..but no..he isnt even alive”he said in a weak nd shattered tone..although he hated his father throughout his lyf..but still..he is his father.Nandini is weeping standing far frm him.
Manik:”He was killed by raghav…ur so called uncle”he said last line in a dramatic tone..he then turned around to luk at her..
Manik:nd u thought…after knowing this truth that my father’s murderer is ur uncle…that u r related to him..i will leave u..bas..itna he janti ho tum apni manik ko”he said last line coming closer to her.
Tears are flowing frm her eyes.
Nandini:nahi manik..i was just..I was just afraid…manik..I “she is unable to xpalin him anythng
manik:agar if u think that i will leave na”he paused ..lukd at her “Then its btr i leave”his voice shivered her to the core..she lukd at him in shock nd he lukd at her in pain..he turned nd strtd walking…
Every step he took away frm her…is killin g her..she is feeling lyk sumthing is prickng in her heart..her soul is leaving her body..she is lukng at that direction in wch he is going…he is about to open the door..but then stopped,turned around to luk at her………
Manik:but remember 1 thing nandini”he stopped fr sum seconds…she lukd at him with tearful eyes..”if i leave u..i will leave this world…i will prefer to die instead of leaving u..i will die”he saidi the most generous voice nd she without any rataional thought,ran upto his arms nd he engulfed her in his protective embrace..
manik:sach mei i’ll die wthout u nandini..i wont b able to survive”he genuinely hugged nd confessed to her nd she hugged him more tightly
Nandini:am sorry manik..m really sorry”‘she said hugging him tight..while he tightened his hold on her…
manik:I was not angry on u nandini..I was just angry on myself that may b I havent provided u with that much space that u could have said me anythng”‘he said holding her tight..she broke the hug nd cupped his face..
Nandini:dont say that manik..pls…I was just afraid…I just thought ki I may loose u nd if that happens I cant live..I cant live wthout u manik”she said lukng deep in his eyes…he kissed her forehead.
Manik:promise me …from now on u will never hide anythng frm me”he frwded his ahnd nd she placed her hand as an assurance that she will nevr do it again.
After sumtym,Manik is lying in nandu’s lap..his eyes r closed..nd she is ruffling his hairs wth her hands…
Nandini:manik”she broke the silence
Manik:hmmm..”he just hmmd as he is really tired
Nandini:Raghav..he is my uncle…Wont u ask or say anythng”she said being scared as she knows raghav is also manik’s father’s murderer..
Manik got up nd said”‘han…nd y he tried to kill u?”he only asked abt her but not abt his dad which made her worry..
Nandini:bcoz I’m with his enemy’s son….nd bcoz he wanted ur lyf…nd he wanted to see u suffer throughout ur lyf..his revenge fr u is more than his luv fr me..infact may b he never luvd us…me ,mom or abhi”‘she said him starightforwardly as there is no reason left to hide now..she is assured now that no matter wat he wont leave her…

then pandit asked brother’s sister to tie the nuptial knot(ghatbandhan) …manik wth eyes asked navya nd mukti to come nd both tied it as much as they can so that manan will always hook up to each other nd never part ways.
