Manan:magic is in you (episode 38)

Hey guys….

Shashwat steps towards her emotionally… But she steps back and stumbles… Shashwat feels bad… Cabir holds her instantly supporting her…

Cabir “Navya!! Be careful!! Control…”

She looks at Cabir … Tears are flowing down her cheeks…

Navya (cracky voice) “Look Cabir… He’s here… Finally… In Front of me! I found my dad! (Sarcastically) my great Dad! Who was away from me for 13 years and left me!! The one who made his heart of stone and never ever turned to look at his only daughter whether she is alive or not! I had my Godparents,who were there to fulfill their every responsibility,and they did kept me like their own daughter but never ever told me about my biological parents… Why? Because they were bound by his promise-My Dad!!!”

Abhi and Nandini go to her and hug her to console her… Manik helplessly looks at Navya and then at Shashwat… He looks into his eyes… He reads his thoughts…

Shashwat feels bad… He met his daughter after 13 years… He thought she would run to him and hug him forgetting all the pain of 13 years but here opposite is happening… Instead of feeling happy for reuniting with him,she is feeling betrayed and cheated… He felt like a real bad father! A father and daughter have special bond between them… A father never let’s his daughter cry and keep her like a princess… Her one smile means the world for him… Giving her happiness is the major objective of a father’s life… But what he did?? Just opposite!! He left her for 13 years alone on her own birthday! She was waiting for them but he never turned up… Instead of being treated like a princess by them she was treated as princess by her godparents He has done nothing for her till now.. Such a bad father he is!!

Manik closes his eyes tightly… He again feels like his and Raj’s situation is happening… He cannot let his friend repeat the same mistake he did 13 years back! He cannot stand like this looking at everything helplessly… He has to speak…

Manik “Navya… (All look at him… He goes to her and holds her by her shoulder… She looks at him tearfully…) Don’t repeat my mistakes! (All look at him shocked) plz don’t do what I did 13 years back… You know just your side of story… You don’t know what happened that made a father stay away from his daughter for 13 years!! You are here since a month now… Still he controlled himself from meeting you… Do you think it would have been easy for him to stay away from his beloved daughter??”

Nandini “Your Dad is in front of you… Don’t repeat what Manik did Navya… He is also waiting to hug his daughter from the past 17 years… And you are giving him more pain by moving away from him?? Aren’t you doing injustice to him??”

Abhi “I understand… You are hurt… You are feeling betrayed… All the emotions of 13 years which were bottled up within you are willing to fizz out of your mind together and you are feeling dreadful at the moment… But Navu… Look at him..!!”

Mukti “Your Dad!! when he himself is standing before you, you are stepping back? Are you really Navya??”

Navya looks at Cabir who was all the while silent while standing with her like her support… He wipes her tears smiling and nods…
Navya looks at Shashwat… She steps towards him… Shashwat also moves to her… She runs and hugs him… He caresses her head and closes his eyes allowing the emotions within him to flow through his eyes… He had indeed waited for her… To reunite with her… To care for her… To shower all his love on her… His little princess… His beloved daughter… He was so thankful to her friends for they pulled her out from her emotional turmoil and made her realize what she actually wanted… He was proud of her daughter… She has chosen a perfect company for her… Even perfect partner… He saw the care and love in Cabir’s eyes for his daughter which,in no manner was less than him… Just the meaning was different… He finally,after 13 years felt contended… His daughter was with correct people…

Navya parts and looks at him…

Navya “Where were you all these years?? Why you never came to see me?? Didn’t you missed me?? Tell me now!!”

Shashwat “I will… I will tell you everything… But one by one…”

She nods wiping his and her tears… She makes him sit on couch… All look at smilingly at them…

Navya “Dad… If you are here, then where is Mom?? I am sure she must also be here… Call her… I am dying to meet her… Plz call her…”

The expression on elder’s face changes at once… The SSS notices it…

Navya “What happened?? Why are you all looking like this?? I am feeling restless… Dad?? Where is Mom??”

Shashwat (tearing and shaking his head) “She is not with us… When we went for our work on our birthday,the next day,we were attacked and she died…!! I was there when it happened… I was right there… I could have tried but I couldn’t save Pavitra!! This all happened in the blink of an eye and she went away from us!!! Forever!!! I couldn’t save your Mom!!”

He bursts into crying… SSS are also shocked and sad… Navya is also heart-broken… After seeing her father alive and fine,a hope had flickered in her that maybe her Mom would also have been fine and somewhere near her but her Dad’s answer diminished her flickering hope… She cries… But she can’t fall weak… She has to manage her dad also… And she needs to know what happened to her mother?? Who killed her… Who are their culprits!!

Navya “Dad… I want to know whatever happened that day…. Everything in detail…”

Shashwat nods…

FB SHOWS…

13 years ago…

A call came and Shashwat went and picked it up…after listening from the other side he made a worried face…after the call ended

Pavitra “Was the call from ministry??”

Shashwat nods “Yes Pavitra… And the matter is really serious… They located them… My best friend and his whole family is in danger… They were in a hideout since 2 years… We have to save them… It’s our duty also and our responsibility as well… How could that break into ministry and trace their location?? Who helped them out? We have to help them out…”

Pavitra “Of course Shashwat… She is my best friend as well… And I cannot leave her and her family in danger… But I am afraid that we will be late and the danger will reach them before us… We have to be quick and alert them… Then we will find out about the ministry mess… (She takes out her wand) Expecto Patronum..!!!”

Her patronous appears as a white horse…

Pavitra “Go to them and ask them to move to the safer place right now… They are in danger… Take them there yourself and don’t let anyone reach there… Go…”

Her patronous disappears… They both leave for ministry…
As they reach ministry,they see the tracing department office in a total mess… They Panic… They then locate the the injured Auror…

Shashwat “What happened here?? Who did this to you?? Was he someone from ministry??”

Auror “Sir… He just stormed in and used the Cruciatus Curse on me… He kept on torchering me until I told them where the tracing file was kept… He looked into the file and searched something eagerly… When he got what he wanted,he left…”

Pavitra “Who was he?? Was he someone from ministry?? Who did this to you??”

Auror “He was from ministry indeed…”

He tells them the name (muted)… Shashwat and Pavitra look at each other in shock… They rush from there immediately and apparate… They both reach the place where their friends were hiding… The whole house was reduced to ruins… They notice two people standing in long black silhouetted hoodie…

FB ENDS…

Navya cries… Along with Navya ,whole SSS are tearing…

Cabir “Mr. Mehta… Who were those two persons?? Were they the one who killed Mrs. Mehta??”

Shashwat nods… Navya looks on…

Cabir “Then tell us… Who were they?? Do we know them??”

Shashwat nods “You know them very well…”

Cabir “Who?”

Shashwat “Ram Thakur and Sujata Thakur…!!!”

The whole SSS feel like lighting struck them… Cabir and Navya look at each other blankly… Mukbhi and Manan are also staring at both of them… They are struck at such big dilemma that they are not able to decide what’s right and what’s wrong… Cabir and Navya… One-third part of SSS..!! Who love each other so much!! But this kind of misery!! One’s parents are responsible for the problems of other one?? Was this the end of their relationship?? Was this the end of SSS?? Was this the end of their story?? No one knew until Cabir spoke…

Cabir “I don’t know how many sins my biological parents have done… Is there any sin which is left?? Navya… (She looks at him) I wanted to be your healer but it seems that destiny has something else in it’s mind… I am the reason for all your pains… And until I am with you,your wounds will always remain fresh and will pain you… I cannot see you in pain… If possible then forgive me… I will never show myself to you ever again…”

He turns to go but stops as he realizes someone is holding his hand…. He knows the touch… He closes his eyes and allows the tears to fall… He turns around and looks at Navya …

Navya “You are breaking your promise Mr. Cabir Malhotra… You are denying to follow your words… Do you remember what you promised me yesterday?? (They recall their date and an FB SHOWS in their mind together…

Cabir “I promise you… No matter whatever happens… I will never leave you and will always stand by your side in every situation… Not just as your supporter but also your protector… I will always come back to you…”

Navya nods and hugs him “I will never let you go away from me !! I will pull you back to myself if you dare to go away..!!”

FB ENDS…

How can you back off from your words when I am following mine?? (She clutches his collar) How could you?? Infact How dare you???”

Cabir is shocked… Navya wants to be with him even after knowing what his parents did to her and her parents!! He feels lucky to have her by his side… He hugs her tightly… She reciprocates… The faculty along with Shashwat smile… The SSS heave a sigh of relief and side hug each other…

Navya “How can you blame and punish yourself for something which you never did!! You dare not repeat such things and pose as a Mahaan!! Else I will torcher you!!!”

She cries and threaten him while hugging him… All others including Cabir chuckle amidst tears…
They both part and look at Shashwat…

Navya “Dad… What followed thereafter?? I want to know everything…”

Shashwat nods and continues…

FB SHOWS

Shashwat and Pavitra notice two people standing in long black silhouetted hoodie… They are revealed as Ram and Sujata…

Pavitra “I never imagined you as a traitor Ram!!! We trusted you!! Even after knowing your connection,we saved your job and let you work in the ministry!!!”

Shashwat “But you!! You back stabbed us and betrayed us!! Thank god that I trusted my instinct and never shared anything about them with you even though you kept on pestering me!! I never knew you were the one to betray us!!”

Ram (laughing hysterically) “Guess what!! Surprises and Shocks comes in the most unexpected manner!!! The reason why they are known as surprises and Shocks… Yes… We are the ones who did all this…”

Sujata “And we never betrayed you! We betray the ones to whom we are loyal!! But we were never loyal to you!! We are loyal to only one person and we work only for that person!! Injustice happened with us!! And we will avenge it at any cost!!! But you both!! You both snatched that chance from us!! Very cleaverly you sent your patronous and moved them away from here before we reach them…!! Only you both know where they are right?? Now you both will tell me only!!!”

Pavitra “Never!!! I will die but never reveal their hideout to you!!! Never ever… She is my best friend and I have sweared to protect her family at any cost!!”

Shashwat “We have sweared on our daughter!! Whom we love the most!! I won’t let anything happen to my best friend and his family… Before reaching to them, you have to cross us!!!”

Sujata (laughs like mad) “Ram,of not them, then Raj’s son will be our Target!! You immediately leave for Malhotra Mansion!! Our prey must be waiting for us!! And don’t worry about them… I am enough for the both of them!!!”

Shashwat and Pavitra are beyond shocked!!! They forgot about him!!
Ram nods and apparates from there…

Sujata “And you both!!! Don’t worry!! I Will definitely fulfill your wish!! You wanted to die rather than breaking your promise?? Alright then!! As you wish… (She instantly points her wand at Shashwat and smirks devilously) Good Bye Mr. Shashwat Mehta!! Will miss you!! Avada Kedavra…!!!!”

But before the killing curse could hit Shashwat, Pavitra comes in front and takes his attack upon her… Sujata looks on surprised but then laughs…

Sujata “Anyways you would have been next!! But it’s ok… You are dying suhagan!! It’s a blessing… I also bless you for the last time!! May you die as a Suhaagan!!! (She then laughs)”

Shashwat is shocked… Pavitra falls in his arms… He looks at Sujata angrily as she was laughing hysterically after hitting his wife!! He angrily points his wand at her…

Shashwat “Avada—!!!”

Pavitra stops him “Plz listen to me (she struggles to breath) petrify her!! Plz…”

Shashwat nods “Petrificus Totalus..!!”

Sujata gets petrified while laughing and falls down becoming a statue…

Shashwat sits down cryingly holding Pavitra in his arms…

Pavitra “You have to live for our daughter… You have to save everyone and fulfill my promise… Go from here before she gets normal and calls death eaters… Inform Raj about everything… He is with them at new hideout!! Go save everyone… Take care of yourself and our daughter… She is also in danger… Bye and I love you…”

Shashwat was just nodding his head cryingly and before he could reply to her last words,she passes away in his arms going to the world of eternity… Her body disappears due to the effect of the killing curse…
Shashwat breaks down… But then recalls Pavitra’s last words and gets up wiping his tears… He gives a last angry glance at Sujata and apparates from there…

FB ENDS…

All are heartbroken at Pavitra’s fate and sacrifice… Mansi is crying inconsolably… Ansh side hugs her…

Shashwat “I knew it that if I will now return to Navya,then even she will be in danger… So,in order to fulfill my promise to Pavitra to keep her safe, I decided to hide myself from the whole world until it is right time for me to come out!! And gave Navya to Ansh…”

Raj “After that Shashwat came to me at the new hideout… Nyonika was also there with me!!! He told us everything and we were beyond shock!!! We immediately left from there to our house which was already attacked by the death eaters sent by Ram and Sujata… ”

FB SHOWS…

Shashwat reaching the hideout and telling everything to Raj and Nyonika … They get angry and leave form there…

They both reach Malhotra Mansion and see the death mark in the sky!!

Nyonika “They are here!!! The death eaters!! Our children!! They are in danger!! We have to save them!! Raj!! You go inside and save them!! I will deal with the ones standing outside!!! Ram and Sujata can do anything with my kids… Go and save them… And Even Cabir… That little kid is not at all at fault!!”

Raj “I know Nyonika … I won’t let anything happen to Manik Mukti or Cabir!!! I promise…”

They both nod and move towards their house… Nyonika battles with the death eaters outside while Raj storms in!!!
There the death eaters have injured Mukti and made him unconscious and same with Cabir!! Manik was hiding with both of them to save him and them beneath the bed…
(Everything then happens according to Manik’s Flashback which he told to SSS at the common room till the point where Ram (face covered) drags out Manik from under the bed)

In the hall of the Malhotra Mansion, Raj battles with the death eaters and kills them all in a rage…
He then spots Sujata…
She gets afraid seeing him… His eyes red with anger… A shiver runs down her spine…

Raj “HOW DARE YOU SUJATA!!! YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND TRIED TO HARM THE INNOCENT KIDS THAT TOO IN MY HOUSE!!! NOW GET SAVED FROM MY RAGE!!!”

Sujata gets scared of him and pleads for forgiveness… He attacks her with his wand but she dodges his attack and runs inside the house towards the room where Ram was about to kill Manik…

There little Manik collapses on the floor… He is struggling to keep his eyes open… Only one thing escapes his mouth while looking out of the door…

Manik (faintly) “Save me Dad..!!”

Then he hears a shout… He looks in the direction,still struggling to keep his eyes opened… The attacker wizard is also looking in that direction…
Sujata comes in his view… He gets mistaken about her presence and then sees Raj who is attacking her…

Sujata (requesting him) “No…!!! Don’t do this…!! I am sorry for whatever I did..!!! No plz!!! Don’t do this!!!”

Raj (his anger at it’s peak) “Do I look like a fool to spare you… I won’t let you ruin things… I WON’T!!!!(Manik couldn’t take another shock and faints…) I will kill both the husband and wife… You both did not even once thought about your son!! (Nyonika comes there by then and joins Raj) What would he feel when he will learn about his parents deeds?? But don’t worry… I am not heartless like you people… I won’t ever let him think bad about his so called biological parents!! Now your time is over!! Avada—”

Just then they hear Cabir getting conscious and he moans out of pain due to his injury… Raj and Nyonika get distracted… Ram and Sujata sneak their chance and elopes from there…
Nyonika tries to catch them but she couldn’t…

Raj “Don’t worry Nyonika … They won’t ever return now… We have to lie to Cabir about his parents… We can’t tell him the truth!! It will break him!!”

Nyonika nods… Raj then runs to Manik and takes him in his arm hugging him tightly…

FB ENDS…

They all understand the situation… Manik is again on his guilt tour… Nandini senses it and holds his arms…

Abhi “Mr. Mehta… Who were your and Mrs. Mehta’a best friends for whom you both were ready to even sacrifice your life?? You didn’t even cared about your daughter to keep your promise…”

Vanshika “Ansh Murthy and Mansi Murthy…!!”

Nandini , Navya and Abhi are shocked to the core… Their family!!! Their parents…!! Cabir’s parents were before them!! Navya’s parents were saving them from Cabir’s parents!!! Why??? Now the SSS look at Murthys only to find them looking at their parents who are crying recalling their dreadful past with the same questioning expression on their face… What was happening!!! All the incidents were interconnected!!! How ?? And why???

Nandini “Mom Dad???”

They both look at their children and nod… three of them are shaken…

Mukti “Then for whom are Cabir’s biological parents working?? To whom are they so loyal?? That they even left their son for their loyalty??”

Vanshika sighs but then,it was time to face the confrontation and reveal the truth… With much difficulty,she speaks the name…

Vanshika “Janki Naveli!”

The whole SSS together “WHAT!!!!!”
