Next Morning,
It's a peaceful day in Malhotra mansion. The elders were having morning tea.
But Nandu, Manik & Cabir were sleeping like dead people!!
Suddenly Manik's alarm rings!!
He wakes up and sees the time and screams!!
Cabir gets irritated with Manik's screams so he put a pillow and covers his ears and again sleeps!!
Manik watches Cabir's drama and pulls the pillow from him and kicks Cabir on his back!!
And
Dummmm!! (sound of something heavy just fell)
Cabir the great joker was now on floor but still he sleeps!!
Manik being annoyed just walks to the washroom and freshens up then getting ready he comes to dinning table where everyone was already present
Yep, even Nandu also wake up hearing Manik's scream then she thought to freshen up and came downstairs.
Manik and Nandu had an eye contact which they soon broke hearing Neyonika.
Neyo(concern): Nandu ,my daughter!! Driver will take you to the office you are having your contract.
Don't go alone!!
You don't know people here!!
Naina: Exactly!! Neyoni is right Nandu!
Manik(confused): What's the matter guys!!
I don't understand why you girls love shopping much!!
Nan(gritting): It's not about shopping!!
I have some important work!!
Neyo(strictly): Mannu (Manik's pet name for his mom)!! Don't tease her.
Actually Nandu has got a contract from a company of India for her paintings.
This company needed few exclusive paintings for their company which will be totally new and unique.
This company loved her paintings and now they want her to work on this project and make few unique designs.
Raj & Rajat(happily): Congratulations beta!!
Nan(smiling): Thank you uncles!!
Raj(fake sad): Still uncle!! Baccha(baby) call us dad !! Just like Manik and Cabir does!!
Rajat(fake sad): But it's okay if you don't want to.
Nan(teary eyes): No no !! Dad!!
It's not like that. Plz don't get sad.
Neyo & Priya(glaring): Stop you guys! You both just made her cry !!
Raj & Rajat (panicking): Hey princess!! We were just joking!! Plz don't cry!!
Nandu hugs them !!
Nandu(smiling cutely): It's okay dad!!
To make the atmosphere normal, Manik says,
Man(teasing): By the way, I never knew you could paint also lilliput!!
Nan(gritting her teeth): If a monkey can run business then me doing paintings is not a big deal!!
Manik glares at her and she gives him hard glare in a reply!!
Man(glaring): I feel sad for your boss who is going to tolerate you!!
Nan(laughing): I also feel sad for your stuffs who has to tolerate an crazy monkey boss!!
Both glares each other and leave for their perspective works!!
At STARFLY Industry :
Nandini was waiting to meet the CEO of the company who has liked her paintings and want her to show him few exclusive paintings!!
But she is here to know the exact criteria he wants those paintings to be.
The pa of the boss let her enter.
Nan(professionally): May I come in sir?
Man(recognize): Yes!!
Nandini looks at the boss and becomes shocked!!
Yes!!
He is non other than her Monkey!!
I mean Manik!!
Nan(glaring): What are you doing here?
You are Manik Malhotra right?
You should be the CEO of Malhotra Industries!!
What are you doing here?
Did you kill the CEO just to punish me!!
(Being over thinker Nandini was talking anything that came to her mind)
Manik is still looking at her with a weird expression like shocked+ laugh+ angry.
Manik(sarcasm): Are you seriously sure that you didn't hit your head somewhere before coming here!!
Nan(innocently): Nope. I just came here directly.
Why?
Man(feeling like hitting his head on wall): It was a sarcastic reply.
Man(Bossy Tone):Let me tell remind you, if you have forgotten that I'm a self-made independent young Businessman of Asia and no. 1 businessman of India. My name comes under top 10 most businessmen.
you should at least have some knowledge about your Boss before coming here.
Nan(glare): You knew it right?
Manik looks at her confused!!
You knew that I had the contract with your company. Right?
How is it possible that you selected my painings but didn't see my name!!
Man(shrugs): Actually I didn't care who was the artist. As I don't have much knowledge of it. All I cared was the paintings.
Well, I must admit one thing !!
How much I love to punish you by cancelling the contract but I really loved your work!!
Nan(glaring): Was it a complement or an insult?
Man(controlling laugh): Whatever you want!!
Nandini comes in her professional aura.
Nan(professionally): Well, I wanted to make those paintings knowing your preference criteria.
Which type of paintings you want me to make?
Manik(without a second thought): Historical Paintings!!
Nandini becomes totally shocked!!
He told her as if it has to be the theme anyhow.
After that they discussed few things and then Nandini left the office.
At Night,
Dinner time,
All were having their dinner.
Raj: Princess!! How was your meeting ?
Was the boss good?
Did he say anything wrong?
If he does just tell me I will sue him from Industries
Nandini looks at Manik smirking!!
Manik was totally shocked seeing his father over protective nature for her!!
Nan(smiling): No dad. He is a nice guy but a little weird!!
Said the last word intentionally to make Manik tease.
Cabir(laughing): Just like Manik??
Nan and Cabir hie fives with each other.
Others just laugh and Manik makes faces and glares Cabir!!
After dinner in Nandini's Room,
Someone knocks the room,
Nan: Come in!!
Manik enters!!
Nan(astonished): You here!!
Man: Yep!!
Suddenly his eyes fell on the painting!!
Manik goes towards it and says,
Man(astonished): It's so nice!!
You really made it amazing!!
But wait!!
Are you making fun of me?
Nandini with confusion looks at him!!
Nan: What do you mean?
Actually I didn't make it for you.
She looks down and says,
Manik will you believe me if I say you something!!
Manik finds her serious!!
Man: You can tell me lilliput!!
Don't worry!!
Nan: Manik I don't know if you will believe it or not.
But....
Since childhood I am seeing a dream!!
A palace!!
A place where I never visited!!
Since childhood I'm seeing the same dream every night!!
Few days back my this dream got a little bit clear and I saw the outside look of the palace and then I made the painting!!
The weird part is I never visited there. Whenever I talk about it to my dadi(grandma) she gets scared for some reason and for some fears of hers she never let us talk about India even.
Why!!
None knows!!
Even today also we came here hiding her as she has gone to USA for some work.
My this dream has some connections with India Manik!!
I believe it but I don't know how to find this palace!!
This is not in the google also.
Today when Dad told us to stay here I got some way to find about it.
Well, why did you say that I'm making fun of you?
Man(fake smile): Nothing, i thought you were just making it from google.
I should go now
He was about to go.
Nan(pleading): Manik I'm trusting you!! Plz don't say it to anyone
Manik gives her an assuring look.
Man(smiling): I won't ever break your trust lilliput!!
He goes a little and turns back.
Nandini!!
She looks at him!!
Will you go to the project area tomorrow with me?
It would be helpful for you to make the paintings!!
Nan(smiling): Okay!! I will be ready!!
Manik: Goodnight!!
Nan: Goodnight!!
Why Manik was shocked seeing the palace?
Was Manik hiding something form Nandini?
What has stored in their future?
