Chapter 17 - The Mysterious Palace!!

Nandini is standing fully shocked!!

She was standing infront of a

PALACE !!

Nandini looks at Manik and says,

Manik: I know Nandini what's happening inside your mind now!!

But I also don't have any answer of your questions!!

Nandini: This is the same Palace, Manik!!!

How is it possible?

All my life , I have seen this palace only and I found it in India!!

It's infront of me!!

I don't know how to react!!

Manik: Maybe it has some internal connection with you!!

Nandini looks at Manik!!

But Manik was looking at the palace dreamily!!

Nandini(confused): Manik!! Why are you so fascinated by the beauty of the palace?

Manik(smiling): This is the site lilliput!! We have come here to make the design of the palace only!!

Nandini(confused): But it has already an amazing architectural design and history!!

Why do you want to change it?

Manik(dreamily): I dont want to change it Nandini!! I want to renovate it!!

I want to give it a new, aesthetic look! Which is quite tough now as you have already seen the designs of the palace is now totally ruined!!

That's why I was looking for creative and unque artist who can give this Palace it's own Royal look!!

Manik looks at Nandini with a smile!!

Manik(smiling): Then I found your amazing paintings and thought to choose you for this!!

Nandini(astonished): You want me to give it the same look I saw in my dream?

Manik(smiling brightly): Exactly Lilliput!!

I want you to make it like the way you have always dreamt it!!

Nandini looks at Manik and says,

Nandini(tensed): Manik!! What if I you don't like my designs?

Manik(smiling): I know that you will make it amazing, lilliput!!

Let's go inside now!

Nandini(excited): We can go inside?

Manik(smiling): Yes Lilliput!! We can go inside now as I'm the new owner of this palace!!

Suddenly Strong Wind starts blowing!!

Manik holds Nandini's hand and pulls her towards him.

The wind was sudden and went in few seconds only!!

There started blowing dust around due to strong wind so nothing could be seen.

Nandini felt that someone was looking at her !!

Manik(tensed): Are you alright, lilliput?

Nandini nods her head in yes!!

Manik holds her hand and starts going inside the palace!!

Nandini still looks here and there to see if anyone was looking at them or it was just her dilemma!!

The Palace's door was royal and huge!!

Manik was about to knock at the door but suddenly the door opens on its own!!

Manik and Nandini looks at each other in confusion!

But they enters the palace and at the same time A Big Vase falls down !!

Nandini holds Manik's hand tight in fear!!

Manik: Lilliput !! Relax!! Don't worry!! Let me atleast see !! (He tries to make Nandini relax)

Manik holding Nandini's hand goes towards the direction where the Big Vase was broken.

Suddenly a Black Cat jumps in Nandini and

Nandini(screaming): Ahhhhhhh!!!

She gets scared because of the cat's sudden jump!!

Manik immediately takes the cat and puts it on the floor and the cat immediately goes out of the window infront of them!!

Manik(relaxed): Look!! The window is open!! The vase fell due to the push of the cat maybe!!

Manik makes Nandini sit on a chair and calls Aman(his pa)!!

Manik(on phone): Aman! What's the name of the caretaker of palace?

Aman(hurriedly): Dharamji!! Sir!!

Sir have you reached? Is there...

Manik being the arrogant boss of all time didn't even wait for his further talks after getting his answer and cuts the call!!

Manik(shouted): Dharamji!!! Dharamjii!!!

Where are you?

Suddenly a man of 57 years old comes towards them with bag full of groceries !!

Manik(controling his anger): Where were you?

Dharamji: Sir!! Main to bajar lane gaya tha aplogo k khane ka intejam jo karna hae

(Sir!! I had gone to market to buy groceries to make food for you guys)

Manik(politely): Can you plz get a glass of water !!

Dharamji immediately goes inside the kitchen and gets water for both Manik and Nandini!!

Nandini was all the time looking at the surroundings!!

Suddenly her eyes caught at something!!
