Manan : Arranged To Fall In Love

Chapter 4

Next morning Manik followed his routine and at dining Neyonika and Raj were having a serious discussion..

Raj: Neyo do you really feel that now is the right time for Manik to settle in his life.. I mean he is still creating a mark of his own...

Ney: what is this Raj he is 26, he handles the business and his passion very effectively so why not settle now, and on top of it we are not asking him to get married tomorrow itself, we are just asking him to give it a thought.. and moreover if he likes someone of whom we do not know then he can tell us. So what do you think?? He still has time to settle down...

Raj: maybe you are right Neyo. Let's talk to him tonight..

Neyo: ok done, now I will call mukti and come.. Till then do not even dare to touch this breakfast...

Till then Manik returns from his jogging and goes to freshen up and comes after 15 mins and hugs Neyo and kiss her cheeks and wish her good morning..

Mukti also comes down and wishes everyone a good morning cheerfully..

All the Malhotra's were having breakfast together discussing about different things when men leave for office.

On the other side Nandini woke up on ring of alarm and as usual went to the window and was talking to herself..

Nandini thinking

Good morning nanz a big day ahead today.. a new beginning of life.. Do not get nervous ok... you have to make a career and make your paa and maa proud.. this is the only day when you can bring that pride that your parents always held for you... So rock your world with this new beginning ...

She kept her further thoughts on side and went to her closet to get something to dress.. she chose a formal pants and coat and went to freshen up.. she took a bath got ready and then went down.

Nandini found Ishita praying to God for her daughter as today is a big day for her.. she was asking God to be with her always and give blessings to her always.. to make her proud and be a great business woman...

Nandu came from back and hugged her mummy and said "good morning maa"

I: a very good morning gudiya..

N: so what was the setting you were doing with God by praying for me...

I: Nah no ways why will I do setting with him beacuse you are all the time taking with your ayyappa then I thought why should I disturb him, as he would already be be fed up with all the bak bak from you and you know all fed up...

N: maa not done yaar.. I love him that is why I keep him updated.. but you need to pray for me..

I: are meri pyari gudiya I prayed for you only today.. to give you strength and be with you in your new journey..

N: I love you, you know that naa.. Ishita kissed her forehead and said

I: I know my bacha but I love you more..

R: I love my daughter the most... And more then you also ishu..

I: haww not fair...

Abhi: leave it paa because no one can compare the love I have for her as she is sister and friend and enemy all so no comparison to me..

N: stop it all, I know I love you all and you all love me the most.. happy...

Saying this she opens her arms apart asking for a hug... And all three come and hug her..

After a family hug they all go for breakfast and to their surprise all food was nandu's favorite.

Abhi: maa this is not fair.. yaar I know nanz has a special day but I do not like her favourite food that too so oily.. I mean who eats Aalu Puri that too early in the morning... and look at her always eating Aalu she has become so chubby....

Nanz: Bhai please i am not chubby ok I just have good cheeks which make me look good.. and anything in breakfast is not bad ok.. and you do work out then why fear..

Abhi: fir bhi you see girls should always die on me.. I need to look this hot all the time...

Raman: Acha beta tabhi to abhi tak ek girlfriend nahi Bana paya.. awww so sad girls need to die on you my foot...

Hearing this all others burst into fits of laughter and our abhi was making sad faces..

Abhi: paa you too are siding this chota packet... this is not fair at all...

N: haww Bhai.. you too are part of our team only... Come on we are a family..

I: chalo bacho no more masti back to food and haan abhi bachu without cribbing for food..

After breakfast all left for their work i.e. Ishita for kitchen and other 3 for office..

Through out the way Raman guided Nandini about the deal and gave a brief about the request for merger..

They reached office when Raman called the staff to make an announcement..

R: good morning staff. Today I would proudly like to inform you that my daughter would be joining us in the business.. she would be independently but yet assisting me in the new project... So please coordinate with her if required.. now back to work people.. we need to bang the market.. We need to prove that why we are on the top so embrace it and sit tight...

The staff clapped and welcomed Nandini for joining office with full form.. Murty's always considered that if a job satisfaction is attained then in that case quality of work is not compromised.. And when they become a family then getting the best out of all is an easy job.

Raman took Nandini with him a showed him a cubical next to his office and said..

R: bacha this would be your work place until you achieve your independent project as you know I want you to earn it.. and on top of it you are assisting me so I would love you to start from basic..

N: yes sir.. saying this she salute him and both father - daughter duo had a laugh.. Nandini being serious said paa I myself would love to achieve it rather then gain it because Raman Murty is my father.. But I also know what Murty Sir can teach that my father cannot.

Raman kissed her forehead and went to his cabin.. while Nandini immediately called upon her colleague and asked on the information collected till now..

Nandini started doing background check on Malhotra's, their way of work and the level of expectancy that they need from this project.. This will help you to have a frame of mind for working on this project..

Keeping all this in mind she started preparing the presentation and if she would get stuck somewhere she would seek Raman or abhi's help..
