Hi.

I have a question regarding storing of timer value. why is the output different betveen x number in MI and x number in ML?

I suspect you're seeing the result of putting a timer current value (which is a 32 bit number) into a 16 bit MI, and winding up trimming off the upper 16 bits of the data. This will only be a problem if the timer preset is large enough that it exceeds the size of 15 bits - the positive portion of a signed integer. (That's about five and a half minutes.)
