After returning, Manik was very busy in his office and he rarely hot time to spend with her.

Nandu also made herself busy in the college..

By evening Nandu came home and she directly went to her room as she was feeling very tired. But Navya noticed her andso she decided to enquire what was wrong with her.

Navya: Nandu what happened? You are looking dull!  U r ok?

Nandu: yeah Navya.... Just feeling tired thats it....I will rest for a while and I will become alright..

Navya: but eat something and then rest...

Nandu: no I am not feeling hungry. I really feel sleepy.

Navya: ok then sleep. I will wake you up for the dinner....

Nandu: thanks navvu. You are the best!

Navya: it's ok. Go to your room....

Nandu departs to her room. Navya found that something was wrong with Nandini....

After a while, everyone returned home and suprisingly Manik too...

Navya: wow Manik today u returned early??

Manik: Haan Navya. The hectic work that literally ate my mind is over.....

Alya was asking something but Manik was not present there mentally. His eyes searched only for Nandu...

Cabir: she is in the room.

Manik suddenly came out of the trance .

Manik: huh??

Cabir: she is in the room. Wake her up for the dinner.

Manik: yeah I will just be back...

Saying so he hurried to his room.

Manik called Nandini several times to wake her up but she didn't wake up.

Manik went near her and touched her by her shoulder to shake her up.
But when he touched, he realised that nandu was burning in fever..... ( Guys, you seriously thought Nandu would be pregnant?? How can it happen when they have not done anything 😉😉,and periods?? Like seriously soo cliché yaar)

Manik forcefully took Nandu in his arms and she with great difficulty woke up.

Nandu: Manik you came...

Manik: Nandini what happened to you?

Nandu: nothing I was just feeling tired andso I slept.

Manik: I didn't mean that....you are burning in fever!

Nandu: nothing to worry. I will be alright if I take rest.

Manik: no way! You are coming to meet the doctor. You are not looking good.

Nandu: no I will not come to the doctor. He will give big big injections and dirty tablets!

Manik: hogaya tera?

Nandu: Manik I feel sleepy. You go and do your work!

Manik: just shut up! Come with me or else I will call everyone here.
Saying so, he called his mom, Navya and cabir.

Cabir: what happened Manik? Why are u shouting?? And Nandu why are u looking soo pale?

Saying so, he went and checked nandu's temperature. He was also shocked.

Cabir: Navya please bring the thermometer.

Soon Navya gave him and he checked nandu's temperature. All got shocked as the temperature was 102 degree .

Navya: my god! Better rush her to the hospital!!

Cabir: Manik I will take out the car. You bring her down.....

Nandu struggled to get up but she failed immensely and fell down on the bed.

Manik couldn't take this anymore andso he took her in his arms and rushed to hospital.

Doctor: I think she got weak.... Was she fasting or something like that?

Maniks anger rose to high and he stared at Nandini!

Doctor: Mrs. Malhotra, please take care and hereafter don't fast. You are not fit for fasting and now you see your body has become very weak....! That's the reason you have got fever.

Nandini looked at the doctor and she didn't speak anything as she didn't have the energy to speak up.

Manik thanked the doctor and returned home.

When they returned, they were shooted with questions. Cabir answered them and Manik supported Nandini to their room. After having some food and medicines, she slept. Manik kept caressing her hair. He went and changed himself and came back and saw that Nandu was shivering with fever. Manik hugged Nandini to comfort her. His body heat was enough to control her shivering and they slept in that position itself...

Next morning, Manik woke up and saw the other side of the bed, it was something he didn't expect. The other side Of the bed was empty. He went and searched for her. He saw her peacefully sitting in the hall and chatting with Alya. She was in her formals.....

Manik went near the girls..

Alya: gm Manik :)

Manik: gm Alya! What are you both doing here??

Alya: nothing she was feeling bored andso we were talking over random stuffs...

Manik: that's ok.. I will freshen up and come......

Alya: hmm....

Manik went to his room and took a warm shower. He was about to wear his blazer but stopped instantly on hearing alya's shout....

What happened now??

Nandu was ready to go to her college as she had to invigilate the exams. She was in the door but due to her weakness she fainted down..... This shocked Alya and she panickly shouted for Manik!

Manik rushed down and saw that Nandu was lying down on the doorway.

He picked her up and went to their room....

Manik: Alya, where was she going?

Alya: she wants to go to her college....

Manik: what? Is she mad or what?

Alya: don't shout at her Manik..... Now wake her up. I will bring juice for her and a cloth so that you can put it on her face and reduce the temperature...

Manik: yeah please Alya...

Meanwhile, Manik sprinkled water to wake her up. She woke up slowly.

Manik was about to start his shouting session but stopped as Alya barged in..!

Alya: Manik make her drink this juice and for heaven's sake, don't shout at her. If you shout then she would cry and this will worsen her situation....
