Manik and Nandini entered the party to greet all the other guests. While nandini got busy with the guests, manik moved towards Fab5.

Manik: Hey guys!!

Aliya: Still not into the party mood Haan... I still can't believe u got into this kind of a surprise for Dadi!! I m sure she is gonna love it.

Manik: Same here Aliya.... This is the first time, i m feeling out of the place in my own party..

Cabir: Well Nandini got u into this for Dadi... Let's see what this turns out to be!!

Nandini: Did I hear my name?? Oh yes i did...

All of them turned around and saw Nandini pulling her wheel chair towards them,
Mukti: Hi Nandini!!

Nandini: Hi...

Manik smiled at her when suddenly cabir scooped down on his knees in front of her, he picked up her hand in his and slowly kissed her knuckles.
Cabir: Hello darling.... U look gorgeous!!

Nandini smiled at it when he continued, this time in a husky tone,
Cabir: If u don't mind... I might wish to add that u look hot today!!

Nandini blushed a bit at him while Aliya hit cabir's back.
Aliya: Oye joker... Shut up and get up now!!

Cabir stood up from his knees while Mukti we busy noticing our hero.
Manik's pov:
What the hell!! This cabir... when will he stop his drama!! God what will i do with this guy... Leave him, here he is clearly flirting with her and madam is smiling and blushing at it. What if some other guy does something, cabir is fine but what about others?? When will this girl get some brains?

But his chain of thoughts was broken when he heard her calling him.
Nandini: Sir.... Where r u lost??

Manik: Lost?? No where... Why??.

Nandini: I m saying that i think it's time that u should bring Dadi... But u r not listening only!!

Manik: Oh yes... I think i should get her!! Guys... I'll be back..

All of them nodded and Manik moved inside the house and straight towards Dadi's room. He entered the room hurriedly, without even knocking and said,

Manik: Dadi..... Woh Nandini!!! .... Nandini!!

Dadi: Manik.... What happened?? Why are u looking so tended... What happened to Nandu??

Manik: Dadi.. woh Nandini again fell down and her leg is badly hurt!! I m taking her to the hospital...

Dadi: Ohh God!! My girl... Wait Manik... I'll also come with u, i want to be with her.

Manik: Jaldi chaliye Dadi....

Both of them hurried out of her room and Manik led her to the backyard saying that Nandini fell down over there!! They reached there and Manik opened up the door and....

"SURPRISE!!!!"

All the guests shouted at the top of their voices. Dadi looked at all of them and then shifted her gaze towards Manik who smiled at her and said,
Manik: Happy birthday Dadi...

Saying so he hugged her tight while Dadi smiled at her fullest to see everything that they had arranged. She broke the hug and again looked at him with a confused face,
Dadi: Nandu??

Manik smiled at her and simply pointed at Nandini who was sitting right in front of the entire crowd.
Nandini moved her chair ahead and reached Dadi. She immediately bent down and touched her feet. Dadi touched her head and as she got up she said,
Nandini: A very happy birthday Dadi!!! I hope Ayiappa blesses u with a long long and healthy life!!
