The lovebirds are sleeping soundly in each other's arms. Nandini’s head is on his arms, whereas he caged her petite figure, holding his most prized possession. She is snuggling in with him more and more as the sun rises. Both had no idea about the time as they slept late because of their epic confession. But the god has some other plans to wake the sleeping beauties.
On the other hand, Cabir walks down to have breakfast with his family after getting ready for the office. Unknowingly, he is in a good mood which will spoil soon. Navya smiles, seeing him happy, and gives him a flying kiss, brightening his day further.
Cabir:- ( Happily, while sitting beside Pihu ) Good morning, junior headache. ( Looking around ) Where is your Senior?
Pihu:- Do you mean Bui?
Cabir nods and receives a reply from his wife, who joins the father-daughter duo at the table.
Navya:- She is not here yet, maybe sleeping.
Cabir:- ( Worriedly ) Sleeping till now? Is she ok?
Navya:- Don’t worry, she is ok. I think she must be tired after yesterday’s party.
She tried to erase his worries but knew that he wouldn’t have his breakfast before he made sure that Nandini was all right.
Cabir:- I can’t calm my heart until I see her fit and fine. ( While standing up ) I am going to see her.
Without waiting for any reply, he went upstairs to have a look at his cute, notorious sister. Here, Pihu looked at her mother with excitement, making Navya scared.
Navya:- ( Scaredly ) Pihu, is there anything wrong here?
Pihu nods positively, making her more scared.
Pihu:- Mumma, I think we should call a BOMB SQUAD.
Navya:- Bomb squad?
Pihu:- Hmm…Because soon a bomb will explode in our home.
Navya:- ( Twisting her ear ) Don’t hide behind the bush, little devil.
Pihu whines, and Navya leaves her ear to hear the truth.
Pihu:- Last night, I heard a man’s voice from Bui’s room ( With a bored expression ), and the voice seemed so familiar.
It took a few minutes for Navya to understand it, but when she did, only a name came out of her mouth.
Navya:- ( Shouted with wide eyes ) SHYBOY?
Pihu:- (Coolly) Maybe.
Navya:- Oh god! ( Palmed her head in worry ) Now, what will happen to HIM?
Pihu:- ( Smilingly ) Why take tension when Bui is here?
Navya:- I can’t trust your Bui. Shyboy is innocent, and one day he will get beaten up because of her.
Pihu:- (Complaints, cutely ) Mumma, you can’t badmouth my Bui.
Navya:- ( Angrily ) Bad mouthing ki bachhi… Let’s go before your father hangs Innocent Shyboy from the fan.
Saying this, she ran behind Cabir, who was shouting while banging the door. For a change, she is not worried for Nandini; she is getting all worked up for Manik because his life is at stake right now.
Here, just a moment ago, Cabir knocked on the door sweetly while calling his sister.
Cabir:- Headache… ( After a pause ) Nandini, open the door bacha. Are you fine, bacha?
No response, but he knocked again, and this knock made Manik stir, making him hmmm hoarsely.
Cabir:- Nandini, get up bacha. It’s time for breakfast.
Manik stirred in his sleep and stretched his right arm while rubbing his eyes, cutely unknown to the blunder he was going to create.
Cabir:- Nand…
Before he could complete it, he heard a manly voice from inside which made him alert.
Manik:- ( In a morning hoarse tone ) I am up, Mumma, wait!
Cabir:- ( Shockingly ) Hey!............ Who are you?
Manik:- Man…
He was going to reply, but stopped and realized the blunder, and now nothing can be undone. He palmed his lips and sat up on the bed, pushing Nandini away, scaredly, and the sleepy head had no idea about anything. She turns her face and snuggles into her pillow, assuming it to be her Shyboy.
Whereas Manik rubs his ears and eyes to come out of this horrible dream, but to his bad luck, this is the reality, THE DAMN REALITY. On the other side, Cabir banged the door furiously, not getting any answer.
Cabir:- Open the damn door, man. ( Angrily ) I will kill you… Just open the damn door.
Navya:- ( Stopping her husband, stammers ) Cabir… What are you doing? Nandini must be in the bathroom; that's why she is not answering.
Cabir:- ( Angrily ) Fine! Then, what about the man who is inside?
Manik heard their talk and murmurs, scaredly.
Manik:- There is no man, Sir.
Navya:- ( trying to joke ) Hahaha… Did you forget that you had a sister, not a brother?... I mean, how can you hear a man’s voice from inside?
Cabir:- ( suspiciously ) But, I never said that I heard a man’s voice from inside. How do you know?
Navya looked at him with wide eyes and a pout, making him suspicious, while Pihu was like “Lo fail gaya raita”.
Cabir:- By any chance, were you aware of this beforehand?
Navya:- ( Rubbing her sweat ) What rubbish! I think Nandini is pranking you.
Here, Navya is trying her best to convince Cabir, but it is of no use, and why would he calm down? He just heard a man’s voice from his sister’s room.
Inside, Manik shakes his sleeping beauty, who has no idea about the situation.
Manik:- Fireball… Wake up… Please…
He shook her vigorously, but she didn’t even bulge because of tiredness, and one thing he didn’t know was that she was a heavy sleeper. It is very difficult to wake her, but the Shyboy is trying hard. He starts sweating as the time passes and hears his boss, who is on his toes, kill him after breaking down the door.
Manik:- ( Shook Nandini ) Uth jaa… Meri Maa…
Nandini:- Hmm…
Cabir:- ( Angrily ) Nandini, open the door. Navya… Navya, bring the extra key immediately.
Navya:- ( Stammers ) I… I forgot where I kept the keys.
Cabir:- What?
Navya:- ( Shouts, irritatingly ) I said, I forgot where I kept the keys.
Before Cabir could do anything, her devil daughter chirped in, snatching the floor from her feet.
Pihu:- Mumma, you kept the spare keys in Dad’s cupboard, I remembered.
Cabir smirked and ran to bring the keys while Navya was murdering her daughter with her eyes.
Navya:- ( Furiously ) Puri apni Bui par gayi hai. ( Turns her attention towards the door and knocks ) Shyboy, please go from here before R.I.P. adds before your name.
Manik:- ( Cries ) Jau kaise? ( How can I go? ) ( Scolds himself ) Stupid, why didn’t you think about how to return? ( Looks at Nandini ) All this is happening because of her, and this Madam is sleeping after selling the horses. ( Shooks her vigorously, and this time gets a reply )
Nandini:- ( Moans ) Hmm… sone dijiye na. Kya aap bhi subah-subah shuru ho gaye hai. ( Hmm… let me sleep. Why did you start early in the morning? )
Manik:- ( Getting jealous ) Who is she talking to this sweetly? ( Shook her again ) Arey… Lady Kumbhkaran… wake up…
For god’s grace, she opened her eyes slightly, and the first thing she noticed was.
Nandini:- Shyboy, why did you wear clothes?
Manik:- Huh!
He is confused because he slept with clothes on, but his confusion erased hearing her further.
Nandini:- ( Hoarsely ) We are on our honeymoon, so remove that… It’s a rule that you can’t wear clothes here.
Manik:- ( Blushingly ) I… I will not wear them, but please get up.
Nandini:- Why? It’s so cozy here. ( Snuggles in the blanket and pulls him as well ) Come, you too, sleep with me. ( Kissing his cheek ) Mussoorie is such a romantic place, isn't it?
Manik hears the faint voices from the door and comes back to the earth. He bites her cheek to wake her completely, making her come out of her dreamland.
Manik:- ( Whisperly yelled ) Fireball, Boss is at the door.
Nandini:- So?
Manik:- ( Irritatingly ) Oh god! Yeah, abhi bhi neend mai hai. ( Oh god, she is still sleepy. ) ( He bites her another cheek, earning a slap on his bicep.) What should I do? The boss is at the door.
Nandini sits up and makes a bun of her hair, looking cute, which stole his heart once again.
Nandini:- ( Yawns ) Shyboy, you are not some random fu*k boy or a call boy to whom I called to spend the night. So, why are you getting hyper? He is my brother, not a policeman from whom you are scared.
Manik:- I know, but ( Cries dramatically ) I am scared. What would he think about me? ( Joining his hands, he pleads ) Please, tell me how I can go back?
Nandini:- What do you mean by “how can I go”? ( With narrowed eyes ) Did you ask me before coming here?
Manik:- But I come here for you.
Nandini:- Do I ask you to come?
Manik:- ( Tries to blackmail her ) Ok, no problem. What would happen if your brother saw me here with you? My image will get tarnished in front of him, but who cares? He may deny our marriage, saying I am a characterless boy, but ( Signes dramatically ), who cares?
Nandini:- Kitna drama karte ho tum. ( Such a drama king. ) You need acting classes to pull such scenes in front of me. Such a terrible actor you are.
Manik pouts cutely to melt her heart, making her sigh. She stood up and pulled him with her.
Nandini:- Uff… boyfriend ke liye kya kya karna padta hai.
She brings him towards her balcony and encircles her hand around his neck, getting romantic, making him sweat.
Manik:- Is this the time to get romantic, Fireball? Are you out of your mind? Your brother is banging on the door, and here you are enjoying it.
Nandini:- ( With a smirk ) Am I enjoying it? Ok, so, Chalo, apne hone wale brother-in-law se milte jayo. ( So, come and meet your soon-to-be brother-in-law. )
She tries to drag him inside again, who pleads like an innocent boy. His breath hitched when he heard the door unlock, and in a second, Nandini pushed him onto another balcony, which is adjacent to her room, making him fall on the floor. Getting her clue, he ran out of the room only to get another shock seeing the person in front of him.
