Tick.... Tick

"Attention everyone as you all know there is going to be held partner change dance but there is a twist and the twist is that everyone of you will wear masks and dance" Raj said gaining everyone's attention by tunning the glass

"But it's not the twist the twist is will set up the lights in such a way that only your half body would be seen and the point is it doesn't matters whether the partner you choosed before is the person you want or not but you can find him or not so let's begin" Nyonika completed the incomplete words of Raj

After the short speech/announcement everyone went to choose their masks "I am sure Manik will find me easily because he is so passionate about me" Inaya said proudly while others just rolled their eyes

"Yeah we can see that how much 'attention' he is giving to you" Alia said taking her mask

"I am so excited I hope I get Cabir" Navya said dreamily taking her mask

"Ofcourse" Nandini said wearing her mask

While on the men's side "Bro what do you think whom will you find" Cabir said Manik in a teasing tone

"I don't know about that but I know if you don't find Bhabhi then" Manik said keeping his hand on Cabir's shoulder and continued "then I don't think you will be seen tonight"

"True that wish your brother for the best atleast" Cabir said gulping his saliva in fear

"I wish you are saved" Manik said smirking and wearing his mask

"You are wishing me or killing" Cabir said looking at Manik

"You are right I am actually planning to do it from behind the mask" Manik said smirking and looking at Cabir while he made an 'o' shape but before he could say anything he was cutted by Harsh

"So let's the game begin" Harsh announced while everyone made circles with their present partners

Baatein Kuch Ankahi Si Kuch Ansuni Si Hone Lagi Kabu Dil Pe Raha Na Hasti Hamari Khone Lagi woooh Woooh wooo woo wooh Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar
Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar

As the song started everyone took anyone as a partner and started to even change the partners according to the beats and steps but when Manik and Nandini came into contact of each other though they were wearing mask felt some connection

Keh de mujhse Dil mein kya hai Aisa bhi kya guroor Tujhko bhi to ho raha hai Thoda asar zaroor ho Yeh Khaamoshi jeene na de Koi to baat ho
woooh Woooh wooo woo wooh Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar
Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar

Manik held her close to his heart then twirled her meanwhile few couples left feeling they found the right one

Baatein kuch ankaahe si
Kuch ann suni se honelagi
Kabu dil pe raha naHasti humari khone lagi
woooh Woooh wooo woo wooh Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar
Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar

Both just went lost in each other that non was ready to change the partner

Tu hi meri roshni hai Tu hi chiraag hai
Dheere dheere mit jaayege Halka saa dhaag hai
Oh Yeh Zehar bhi yun peeya hai Jaise sharaab ho
Woooh Woooh wooo woo wooh Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar
Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar

They were just dancing forgetting the world and enjoying in their own world

Baatein kuch ankaahe si Kuch ann suni se honelagi
Kabu dil pe raha na Hasti humari khone lagi
woooh Woooh wooo woo wooh Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar
Shaayad yehi hai Pyaar...

As the song finished everyone started to clap and bless the couple

(A/N: Imagine mask in all the steps)

"Woh that was amazing isn't it but don't you wanna know who are they" Sheetal asked while the audience also looked curious "So may I have a look of such a beautiful couple" As she said both took off their mask making others amazed few jealous and few happy everyone again started to applaud making their trance broke and went away to their respective places

"That was something" Jeff said excited while Nandini just smiled

"What did you do" Himadri asked in anger

"What do you mean" Nandini asked curious

"You are seriously that dumb or just showing I am sure you surely did something that Manik danced with you twice" Himadri said angrily

"I am not interested to take a human as a thing so please stay away from me" Nandini taunted her with a smile making Himadri more angry she was going to shout but Nandini said "No No dare you shout you only will have loss first media will post the princess Himadri doesn't knows manners and shouts at a peaceful ball second people here will think how cheap you are third I will make your life hell" Though she said all this with a smile but it was enough to fade away others smile so did with Himadri

"Wow now that was something" Navya said seeing Nandini's total different version "I mean taunt and all ha"

"What should I do when people are brainless like her I hope now she won't irritate me" Nandini said dramatically

"Oh okay but I think this time it wasn't her fault I mean look at you both while dancing you were looking like a actual couple made for each other" Navya said remembering their dance

"It's nothing like that come-on it was just a dance and moreover I didn't came here to marry someone I just came here to see this area" Nandini said defending herself

"Okay okay but tell me one thing you were telling me or explaining yourself" She said but Nandini one look she became quiet but after few minutes she said "If you say so I mean I am your friend I should and I must believe you" She smiled making Nandini glared to which she shrugged off and said "What's that's what friendship is"

"Leave all this did you got Cabir as your partner" Nandini said changing the topic

"Changing the topic" Navya asked fake suprised "Anyways yes I got actually when I held his hand he got to know it's me I was so happy surprised I can't even tell"

"That had to be happen because when there magic of love and two people are destined then there is only magic no logic" Nandini explained the magic of love making Navya amused

"Yes there is magic but not more then between you and Manik" Navya said mischievously

"Navya" Nandini said in a stern voice to which she giggling mouthed 'sorry'

While on the other side "Kya se Kya ho Gaya" Cabir sang looking at Manik to which he gave a confused look "what I mean I have to agree that what were you and see what have you become now"

"Cabir for once atleast for once say something in simple words do understand simple words" Manik asked confused and irritated by Cabir talks

"I mean there was a time when I had to say that Manik have some interest in girls also and now you are always restless just for a glimpse" Cabir said dramatically

"Cabir now also I don't look around for girls" Manik said in duh tone

"Yeah not for everyone but Nan...Nan" Cabir started to sing at the sing Nan while Manik glared at him to which he just shrugged it off

"Cabir you know I wish law would have granted one free murder then I would have killed you at first place" Manik said trying to scare him

"Do you think your these stupid tricks would work on me" Cabir said ignoring his warnings completely

"Don't don't you dare say anything to Cabir he is always right" Raj said before Manik could say anything to Cabir

"Yeah how can I after all the protectors are here" Manik said grumpily

"Manik don't be sad" Nyonika said making Manik happy "That's different thing that it's true" Manik was again back to his sad zone

"Don't be sad Dadi always love you" Sheetal said spreading her arms to which Manik quickly went for a hug

"How I mean how can be say this I will kill him" Navya kept ranting this from like hours while Nandini and Jeff were just sitting and looking at her actions

"What happened Navya" Nandini stopping her rants

"He...he said that no problem but in reality it's a big very big problem" Navya said angrily

"He means Jiju" Jeff asked munching chips

"Who Jiju dare you call him a Jiju I rather prefer calling him an idiot" Navya said shouting at Jeff to which she closed her ears

"Oh means you both fought" Jeff said slowly opening her eyes while Navya glared

"Aree but tell na what happened" Nandini said saving Jeff from more scolding

"You know na today is analysing test right" Navya asked both of them to which they nodded "So I said him I can't play because it would be very awkward" They again nodded "but he said it's just a part of game not a big deal" She said gritting her teeth

"Navya in a way he is right see today you can analyse both Manik and Cabir Manik as your devar and Cabir as husband" Nandini said solving the problem while Navya nodded and Jeff slept

"She...she slept instead of finding solution" Navya said looking at Jeff

"Offo ofcourse she will sleep when you call someone at 2 in morning" Nandini said making Jeff lye down on bed

"I also sleeping here because if I sleep alone I will plan to kill him" Navya said sleeping next to Jeff

"Okay" Nandini said sleeping next to Jeff
