CHAP 34:
MALHOTRA MANSION:
A man in black tuxedo was reading his one file and smoking his cigarette and sipping his wine. His room was also black, black bed sheet, black interior everything is just black nothing else. A room where only love was there now there was only silence dead silence. No photo was hanging on wall, only some lights were glowing.
He sipped his last sip and took off his specs and closed his eyes and leaned back to his big black chair. But sleep was so far from his eyes. A servant knocked at the door and informed that his mother was waiting for him on dining table. He was none other than manik Malhotra.
Manik nodded his head in yes and went down. he saw that his all friends and Nyonika was waiting for him for breakfast. He settled himself and everyone wished him but he just nodded his head in yes.
"cabir what is the progress of that mr.gupta's contract?" manik asked him in his all time serious tone. Everyone sighed at his behavior because no one could believe that he is the same manik who never talked about business on dining table. Because for him when you are with family just enjoy your time with your family. But now manik was changed fully, he is on top in each field of business. He became rude, arrogant, heartless, and ruthless. He has no feelings for anyone.
"manik wo hum baat kr rhe hai lekin wo land ko lekar ku6 usse problem hai" cabir replied him and manik looked up from his mobile.
"what do you mean by land ko lekar usse problem hai? Us baat ko 2 din ho gye hai aur still tumne abhi uss problem ko solve nhi kiya" manik asked him sternly.
"wo he said k uss city mein wo business successful nhi hoga" cabir tried to explain him.
"is he mad or what? Shimla is not a small city aur wo kaun hota hai ye decide krne wala k muje kahan business set krna chahiye" manik said in his dangerous tone.
When Nyonika heard name of shimla, her eyes twinkled. She thought for something and decide something.
Manik was about to get up but unfortunately at the same time servant was about to put his juice on table but his glass slipped from his hand and everyone get up from dining table. Manik gave an angry glare to him and with his leg he pushed his chair.
"you idiot dikhta nhi hain tumhe haan andhe ho? Yaan ab iss ghar mein kisi ko kaam krna a6a nhi lgta haan?" manik shout on him.
"so..sorry sir..sir galti se ho gya" servant was apologizing him.
"har koi yahin krta hain aaj kal mistake kr ke sorry bol do but it won't work here in my house...you are fired" manik shout and Nyonika sat on chair with her hands on her head. No one has dare to speak anything to him. Servant went from there. He also went up to his room. He was not old manik who always respects his servants, employees but everything is changed now.
Dhruv threw spoon on his dish and alya looked at him worriedly.
"dekha na sab ne ke kya haal hai bhai ka? Uss ladki ne sab barbaad sab ku6 bhai kya se kya ban gye hai sirf uski wajah se" dhruv said to everyone.
"but you are forgetting dhruv ke tum jiske bare mein baat kr rhe ho uski wajah se hi manik ne pyar krna sikha tha manik apni life mein happy rehna sikha tha" cabir also answered him.
"haan aur aaj ussi nandini ki wajah se mera bhai suffer kr rha hai main bas itna janta hoon" dhruv said and alya sighed in helplessness.
"bas kro ab tum dono aur dhruv you are forgetting that she is your bhabhi so respect her" Nyonika said strictly.
"how can I forget that yahan to sab uske lawyers hai" dhruv said in irritate tone and get up from his chair and went out.
"cabir navya aur abeer ka baa rhe hai?" Nyonika tried to change the atmosphere.
"haan aunty wo aaj sham aa rhe hai wapas aur maine abhi ko bhi call kiya tha he said k that k wo aur mukti ek week ke baad paris se aayege" cabir said and Nyonika nodded her head in yes. Alya was listening their talks. She was missing nandini like hell.
"manik wait I want to talk to you about something" Nyonika saw him that he was going out so she stopped him and she get up from her chair and went to him. aliya and cabir looked at them worriedly.
"yes mom boilye jaldi I am getting late" manik said looking In his mobile.
"at least apne mom se to baat uski taraf dekh kr kro" Nyonika said sternly and manik put his mobile in his pocket and looked at her and nodded his head in yes.
"what was that manik? itni choti galti ke liye tumne usse fire kr diya manik how could you be so insensitive?" Nyonika scold him and he was just standing there without any expressions.
"mom it was my final decision aur muje iske bare mein koi baat krni nhi hai" manik said plainly.
"manik 4 saal pehle jo hua tum aaj bhi ussi.." Nyonika was about to say something but manik raised his hand and nodded his head in no.
"4 saal pehle ku6 nhi hua main iss topic pr koi baat krna nhi chahta, jo chiz meri life mein exist nhi krti main us chiz pr apna time waste nhi krna chahta..chalta hoon main meri life mein aur bhi important cheezein hain...cabir chal jaldi I am getting late" manik shout and cabir rushed to them and manik left from there.
Cabir nodded his head to Nyonika in assurance and went from there. Nyonika went to servant quarters and saw that servant was pecking his bag. He turned and said "mam main bas jaa hi raha hoon"
"aapko kahin jane ki zaroorat nhi hain main aapko mere ngo ke office koi kaam de dungi aur kahin doosre quarters main aapke rehne ka koi intezaam krwa dungi" Nyonika said and he nodded his head in yes and she left from there.
She call cabir and said to meet her in caf. They both were sitting in caf.
"bataiye aunty aapne muje aise kyun bulaya wo bhi manik ko bina bateye?" cabir questioned her.
"I heard about your some deal in shimla right??" Nyonika asked and cabir nodded his head in yes.
"I want k manik shimla jaye chahe ku6 bhi kro bas usse shilmla bhejo" Nyonika said to cabir and he was looking at her confusingly.
"lekin aunty manik aur shimla ka kya connection? Aur muje nhi lagta manik jayega kyun ki its not that big problem over there." cabir tried to explain her but she was so adamant.
"tum samaj nhi rhe ho cabir main kya kehna chahti hoon?" Nyonika said in helpless tone.
"to aunty aap samjaye na muje to main aapki ku6 help kar sku" cabir said and tried to understand her problem.
"agar manik ko apni zindagi mein wapas khush dekhna chahte ho to ku6 bhi kro manik ko shimla bhejo" Nyonika sipped her coffee and cabir was still trying to understand her and finally he looked up with bright smile.
"aunty agar baat ye hai to manik hi shimla jayega apne dost ki life mein wo khushi wapas lane ke liye main ku6 bhi kr skta hoon...aunty samaj lijiye aapka kaam ho gya..deal is on.." both raised their thumb and smile.
Cabir somehow make excuse of abeer and end moment he backed off from shimla trip so unwillingly manik had to go on shimla trip. Manik went house and pecked his bag and hugged his mother and went from there. Nyonika was watching him going and said "I am sorry nandini I have to do this mere bte ke liye tumhe wapas aana hoga, tumhe phir se sab ku6 thik krna hoga"
He was sitting in his private jet and reading a magazine where on cover page his photo was published as number one business tycoon in asia. He threw that magazine on other seat and closed her eyes and leaned back to his seat.
Her memories were flashing in front of her eyes. How they were happy with each other? How she always make him smile in his anger?
How she wake him up with her wet hair and her melodious voice of bangle? He showed everyone that he forgot her but no how can manik forgot her?
His life..his heart..his everything..his reason of smile...his reason of living. He almost drowned himself in work but couldn't forget her.. he changed his room's interior.
he removed all her photos and their photo so he could forget her..but what about heart..in heart only she was there..only she...how could he removed her memories...
Their first meeting was flashing in front his eyes. How she was playimg with rain drops? How he clicked his pictures? How he tried so hard to win her??
And how she left him without any reason???why???why???? his heart was screaming. He wanted to know the reason but then he left everything...which was connected to her...
Whenever in night he closed his eyes her smile..her eyes...her bangles...her anklets...flashed in front of his eyes..he denied that now she doesn't matter to him..she doesn't exist in his world..but the fact is he needs her for sunshine in his life...
Roy tapped on his shoulder and manik opened his eyes and looked at him. "sir wo hum pahonch ne wale hai" roy said and manik nodded his head in yes and fixed his specs. After sometime they reached to shimla. And they directly went to hotel to take rest.
Nandini was making their favorite breakfast because it was Sunday. For arjun and aarav Sunday means full day masti with mumma. She made favorite pancakes for arjun and for aarav she made chocolate milk shake with his favorite omelet.
After complete her work she went to their room to wake them up. She was picking up their cars, their paper planes, their drawing books, colors in her way. She opened room and saw beautiful sight in front of her because both were sleeping same like manik. nandini smiled and wake them up and they both do lots of masti in bathroom with nandini. nandini get them ready and then they went down for breakfast.
"mumma aaj hum kahan ghumne jayage aaj to Sunday hain na sho today is oul fun day na" aarav said cutely and with his cute little hands he drink his chocolate shake because nandini was feeding aarav too.
"haan mera baby hum jayege park mein sham mein okay" nandini answered him lovingly and wiped his lips with napkin.
"mumma kal Monday hain na kal teachel(teacher) ne aapko bulaya hain humali play school mein" arjun said munching his food and nandini was feeding omelet to aarav, nandini looked at him.
"kahin fir se tum dono ne koi shararat to nhi ki aarav sach bolo" nandini feed aarav and asked him and he nodded in no.
"mumma aaa.." arjun make noise and opened his mouth to gesture her to feed him. nandini looked at him and feed him.
"no mommy sach mein hum ne koi shalalat nhi ki plomish" aarav said and after breakfast nandini went to boutique and they went to park with some kids to play.
On other side manik listened all terms and condition from delegates and then he signed papers and then manik went out for fresh air. He was wearing black jacket because of cold and a muffler was around his neck. He was feeling very content and peaceful from yesterday when he reached shimla.
He was walking on road and guards were also following him with distance. Manik rubbed his palms and put his hands in his pockets. He saw that some kids were playing in park. He also went to park and sat on one bench and closed her eyes and leaned back to bench.
His all guards were standing there with some distance and roy was giving updates about manik to Nyonika. At the same time manik feel something under his feet. He opened his eyes with jerk and looked down. he saw that a cute little boy was sitting under his bench. Kid was looking here and there and manik cleared his throat to gain his attention.
He jumped at his place because of fear and looked at manik and gulped his saliva in fear and said "untle plsshh don't tell anyone that I am hiding hele varna main out ho jaunga plss" he said cutely pouting his lips. Manik little smiled on his actions..in four years he finally smiled and who makes him smile.. a little boy...yes his son..his little son aarav Malhotra..
"come out..warna main tumhare friends ko bol duga k tum yahan ho" manik said in his serious tone. His guards were about to rush to him but manik stopped them because he doesn't want to scare that little kid.
Aarav pout his lips and made bad face and come outside. Manik sat on bench and aarav was standing in front of him.
"aapne muje bahal kyun bulaya aapki wajah se ab main out bhi ho jaunga koi aisha klta hai chote se bacche ke sath, I will complain to my mumma about you then she will scold you dekh lena" aarav said cutely making faces.
"o really do you even know who I am?" manik raised his eyebrow and asked them.
Before aarav could say anything a voice came from behind "do you even you know who I am??" manik heard his sentence from aarav they both looked in direction of voice. A little boy with white t shirt and blue jeans with cap and jacket standing there with his hands on his waist with full of attitude.

Manik and his all guards smiled and aarav sighed in relief. He stand between manik and aarav. He is none other than arjun Malhotra.
"chote bacche ko kya dala(dara) ho lhe ho mujse baat kro I am his eldel brothel ..you have no idea tumne kish she panga liya hai"arjun tried to threaten him. manik laughed out loud for the first time in four years and his all guards were very happy and surprised. Aarav and arjun made a bad face because of his laughing. If aarav had features of nandini then arjun was like his father like manik.
"aap hum pal has rhe hai untle?" aarav asked him cutely and manik stopped his laugh and he went near them and bend down to their level and said "no main thodi naa aap pr hans rha tha main to bas aise hi hans rha tha"
"pakka plomish??" aarav said from behind arjun and manik smiled and looked at him.
"yesh plomish" manik also mimicked him and they smiled.

"aalav sun don't tell momma about our meeting to that stangel walna wo hume phil akele jane nhi degi khelne palk mein" arjun tried to make him understand. Aarav nodded his head in yes. In evening nandini take them to mall and then they went to hotel for dinner. Whole day manik was thinking about kids only.
Next morning manik went to school to meet principal. He meet principal and he was about to go when his eyes fell on aarav and arjun they are waiting for bus. Because of extra class their bus missed now they are waiting for another bus. Manik stopped guards over there and he went to arjun and aarav.

"waise I have a something for you" manik said and both turned and looked at him and he nodded his head in yes and he put his hand in pocket and take out two big chocolate bar and waved in front them. Their eyes twinkled like stars both smiled brightly. He gives both of them and both take it quickly.
"so yahan padhte ho aap dono?" manik asked them and they nodded in yes because they were busy in eating chocolates.

Manik was very impressed with his manners.
Arjun finished his chocolates and manik also wiped his face.
"hii..my name is manik Malhotra" manik said and both were very shocked because they all have same last name.
"untle hum sab ka last name ek jaisa wowiieee.." arjun exclaimed and manik laughed on his excitement.
"waise I can drop you if you want" manik asked them and aarav looked at arjun and he thought for some time and said okay to him. manik picked both of them so easily. Aarav was so surprised.
"aap kitne stlong ho untle momma na hum eek sath kbhi pick nhi kr pati is liye na humne turn lakha hain jis se momma ko bhi lest(rest) mile" aarav said and manik smiled on his cute talks. Arjun was playing game in manik's mobile. Guards show them, they were about to rushed to him but manik stopped them and manik put them down and opened door of car and they both jumped in back seat and manik also sat there. Roy take his seat in driver seat and drove from there.
Arjun and aarav were watching car so lovingly because for the first time they sat on car and they were tracing fingers on seat and interiors.
Manik talked lot with them and finally they reached home. manik looked at house and he feel something to the home and kids. He was feeling so peaceful but he chucked his all thoughts. Aarav and arjun both kissed on his cheek and promised him to meet in park and left from there.
Nandini was working in her room when she felt his presence. She immediately put her laptop down and rushed down and opened the door but she saw that his car was going and aarav and arjun were waving their hands to car.
They both turned and looked at nandini and smiled.
"lekin abhi to bus ka time nhi hain na wo rosy mam ka phone aaya tha abhi to der hain to tum kis ke sath aaye?" nandini asked them and take their bags and bottles and went inside.
Nandini went in kitchen for water. Arjun gesture him to stay quite. Nandini came back and give water to them and again asked.
