MaNan: It all started with a lie

Birthday Girl's Wishlist

"Us din manik ko sirf uski star hi nahi hume humari angel bhi mili thi" nandini heard two very familiar voices. She turned around to confirm if whatever she was thinking was right just to get happily surprised.

"Happy birthday princess!" the two of them wished, engulfing nandini in a bone crushing hug who was shedding happy tears.

Nandini: noni aunty....uncle

She whispered still stunned.

Abhi: Aunty uncle I missed you both so much

Abhimanyu who was silent till now spoke taking Nyonika and Raj in a hug which they responded equally.

Manik: um...if you guys remember, you have a son too but ab beti mil gayi toh bete ko kyu yaad karenge?

Manik whined like a small baby getting all dramatic making the others laugh.

Nyonika: aww mera baccha....I missed you so much baby

She said hugging him.

Manik: I missed you too mom

He replied wrapping his arm around her waist.

Raj: Oye dramaqueen kitna natak karega tu. Everyone knows you are jealous kyuki humne pehle princess ko hug kiya

He teased manik who got more annoyed.

Manik: dad!

Raj: dad ke bacche pehle gale toh lag

Manik smiled at his dad and immediately hugged him leaving the rest to admire their cute bond.

Cabir: so yeh tera surprise tha manik?

Manik: yup

He nodded.

Cabir: uncle aunty acha hua aap aa gaye ab space me hume koi toh chahiye na to support us

Alia: like really Cabir? Tum toh aise keh rahe ho jaise space has torchured us in Aunty's absence

Mukti: rehne de alia. Iss joker ko kuch bhi bolna bekar hai

Dhruv: vaise uncle aunty you made your entry on a perfect day....nandini's birthday

Nyonika: thanks dhruv but this wasn't our plan

Abhi: not our plan matlab?

Raj: matlab yeh ki Abhi beta yeh sab kuch manik ne kiya hai. You know he literally forced us to complete all our work soon so they we are able to make it up today and that too since a month

Nyonika: exactly! Itna toh usne kabhi apne khud ke birthday ke liye bhi nahi kiya

All this while manik stood there palming his face, embarrassed because he had did not want nandini and the others to know about all this but his parents spoiled it.

Ab mom dad ko kaun samjhaye!?

Manik: uh dad!

Raj: ha?

Manik: how was your conference? You got the deal?

Raj: ofcourse. Is that even a question? There is no one in this world who can defeat the malhotras

He said proudly while nyonika rolled her eyes at his statement.

Nandini: acha uncle...noni aunty...yeh hai mere friends. That's navya, my soul sister(pointing towards navya) then that's aryaman aka arya, he's like a brother to me (pointing towards aryaman) and that guy over there is maddy, my university best friend

She concluded. Nyonika and Raj smiled at them and they returned the favor.

Nandini: ab sabse important baat! meri gift?
