Cabir was looking at Manik with wide eyes. Manik looked at him like nothing happened.

Manik:- What?

Cabir composed himself.

Cabir:- Kuch nahi. (Nothing)

Cabir sat behind Manik.

Manik was time to time looking at Nandini. Nandini was all time looking outside and Cabir's focus on Manik only.

Cabir (in mind):- Manik ko suddenly kya huya? Kuch tho chal raha hai iski dimag mai. Pata lagana hoga. I know Manik is my best friend but Nandini is my sister. I need to know everything. (What happened to Manik suddenly? Something is happening in his mind. I have to find out. I know Manik is my best friend but Nandini is my sister. I need to know everything.)

The school bus stopped on their stop. They got down from the bus. They reached home.

Cabir (shout):- Mom we are home.

Shakshi came downstairs. Servants gave them water and took their school bag. Manik and Cabir laid down flat on the sofa. Nandini went and hugged shakshi. Shakshi kissed Nandini's forehead.

Shakshi:- Tried hai mera bacca? ( Is my child tried?)

Nandini nodded her head. Manik was admiring Nandini with a smile. Cabir got up and went to them.

Cabir:- Mom you know your daughter won today in badminton game. She got selected for the badminton tournament. Isn't that cool? Cabir kapoor's sister won.

Shakshi slapped his head lightly.

Shakshi:- Mehnat meri beti ne ki hai or credit tu leraha hai. ( My daughter has done the hard work and you are taking credits.)

Cabir rabbed his head.

Cabir:- Jo bhi ho. Cabir ki behan jiti hain. Party tho banti hai. ( Whatever. Cabir sister won. Its time to party.)

Shakshi:- Tujhe tho bas moka chahiye party karne ka. ( You just need a reason to party.)

Cabir:- Yup. Mom fab 3 bhi aa rahi hai. Please aj kuch special bana na dinner me. ( Yes. Mom fab 3 also coming. Please make something special in today's dinner.)

Shakshi:- Special tho hogi hi. Aj sab Nandini ki favorite dishes banegge. Meri beti kitni tried ho gayi hai. Ja bacha fresh hoke todi der soja. ( It has to be special. Today only Nandini's favourite dishes will made. My child is so tried. Go child fresh up and sleep for sometimes)

Nandini just hmmed and went to her room. Shakshi turned towards Manbir.

Shakshi:- Or tum dono ko kya special invitation du? Go now. ( And do you guys need special invitation? Go now.)

Cabir:- Kya mom? Beti keliye pyaar or bete ko kuch nahi. ( What mom? Love for your daughter but nothing for your son.)

Cabir pout. Shakshi laughed.

Shakshi:- Ab drama band kar or ja. Manik beta tum bhi jao. ( Now stop the drama and go. Manik you also go.)

Manbir went to their respective room. After fresh up went to their bed for a small nap. It's evening now. Manik after wake up he fresh up and went downstairs and saw Nandini was talking with her friends who came to meet her. Manik went towards them.

Manik:- Hi girls.

All looked towards him. Manik went and sat beside Nandini. Nandini tried to move back but manik held her waist and pulled her towards him. Other two were looking at them with open mouth.

Nandini(whisper):- Manik leave me.

Manik acted like he didn't heard anything.

Manik:- So girls what's up?

Navya:- Tum yeha kya kar rahe ho? ( What are you doing here?)

Manik:- Miss Navya main bhi apko yeh question puch sakta hu. Ap yeha kya kar rahe ho? ( Miss Navya I can also ask you the same question. What are you doing here?)

Navya:- I came to my friend house.

Manik:- Me too.

Manik was talking to them. Nandini was trying to get ride of his hand. But Manik was not leaving her. Nandini pinched his hand. Manik glanced at her and pinched her waist Nandini jumped on her sit.

Nandini:- Ouch!!

Priya:- Kya huya Nandu? ( What happened Nandu?)

Nandini rabbed her skin and tried to control her anger.

Nandini:- Kuch nahi. (Nothing)

Navya:- Then why you shout?

Fortunately Shakshi came there. Manik immediately took his hand back. Nandini sigh in relief.

Shakshi:- Thank god Manik tum utgaye. Actually meri ek friend woh bohot bimar hain. Main usse dakhne ja rahi hu. Aj rat main woha hi rahuggi. Tum dono apni or Nandini ka khayal rakhna. ( Thank god Manik you woke up. Actually my one of friend is sick. I am going to see her. I will stay tonight there. You take care of yourself and Nandini.)

Manik eyed Nandini with a smirk.

Manik:- Of course Aunty. I will take good care of Nandini. You don't worry.

Nandini gave him a angry glace.

Shakshi:- So good boy you are! Cabir jab utthe tho usse bata dena. Main abhi nikal rahi hu. ( So good boy you are! When Cabir woke up inform him. I am going now.)

Manik:- Tik hain Aunty. ( OK Aunty.)

Shakshi:- Nandu achi bachi banke rehne or apni bhai se fight mat karna. (Nandu be a good girl and don't fight with your brother.)

Nandini:- Tik hai Mom. (OK Mom.)

Shakshi kissed Nandini's and Manik's head and left from there. Manik also stood up.

Manik:- I will cheak on Cabir. Enjoy girls. Bye baby.

Manik quickly kissed Nandini's cheek and ran from there. Navya and Priya kept their hand on their mouth. Nandini kept her hand where Manik kissed.

Priya:- Yeh sab kya ho raha hai Nandu? ( What is happening Nandu?)

Navya:- Hai matarani Nandu! Tum or Manik relationship me ho kya? ( Oh God Nandu! Are you and Manik is in relationship?)

Nandini:- What rubbish you are talking Navya? Me and Manik no way?

Priya:- Tho phir humne Jo dekha? ( Then what we saw?)

Nandini:- Uski wings nikal aye hain. kuch Jada nahi urraha hai. Kuch karna parega. (His wings have come out. He is flying too much. Will have to do something.)

Priya:- I think he likes you.

Nandini:- I hate him.

Navya:- But he is a nice boy. Every girl at the school try their luck on him.

Nandini:- I'm not like them. Are you two My friends or his?

Navya:- Sorry Nandu.

Nandini:- Better.

Nandini (in mind):- What happen to Manik? Suddenly this much change. Before he never try to come close me now he start to show everyone. God this boy is too much.

Manik went to Cabir's room and saw he was sleeping like a pig. Manik tried to woke him up but he didn't move a bit. Manik then kicked his butt. Cabir fall on the floor on his face.

Cabir (shout in pain):- Ahh!! Mar gaya re! Mera kamar! ( Ahh!! I am died! My waist!)

Cabir opened his eyes and saw Manik was standing there crossing his arms against his chest. Cabir got up from the floor.

Cabir:- Tune Mujhe kick kyu mara? Mummy! Yeh koi tarika huya kisi ko uthane ka? ( Why you kicked me? Mummy! Is this a way to woke someone up?)

Cabir was rubbing his bum.

Manik:- I called you many times but you didn't woke up. You just want to sleep. So I have no other way. Now go and get ready. We have to practice basketball. Fab 3 will be here soon.

Cabir nodded his head and went to washroom while rabbing his bum. Manik went downstairs and saw Nandini and her friends were not there.

Manik:- Nandini kaha gayi? ( Where is Nandini?)

Manik looked here there but didn't found her. Cabir came downstairs.

Cabir:- Kisse dun raha hain? ( Whom you are searching?)

Manik:- None.

Cabir:- Mom kaha hai? ( Where is Mom?)

Manik:- Aunty went to her friend house. She is not well. She said she will stay tonight there. You were sleeping so she told me to inform you.

Cabir:- Oh tik hai. Fab 3 abhi tak nahi aaya? ( Oh OK. Fab 3 still not here?)

Mukti:- We are here.

Cabir:- Thank god you guys here. Let's go Dhruv do practice.

Then they went backyard. Nandini and her friends sitting there and chilling. They heard some foot step turned around and saw Fab 5 coming there. Manik gave Nandini smile but she turned her face. Manik became sad. Then they practice whole evening. Nandini's friends bit bye her. Nandini went to her room. Fab 5 were sitting in living room.

Cabir:- Aj yeha rehne mai tum tino ko koi problem tho nahi hai na? ( Today, the three of you do have any problem staying here?

Fab 3:- Nope.

Aliya:- But why?

Cabir:- Today Mom is not home and Nandini will not came out of her room. So let's party today in different style. I have something for you guys.

Mukti:- Super cool. Come on open up what you have.

Cabir:- Not here. You guys go to my room I will be back in five minutes.

Manik:- Cool. Let's go everyone.

Then they went to Cabir's room. On the other side Nandini was doing her homework. She didn't like disturb ness on study time. Servants gave her dinner in her room only.

Fab 5 were sitting inside Cabir's room. Dhruv and Manik were playing video games. Mukti was trying some tune on her guitar and Aliya was checking her make up. Mukti was not able to create any tune she just throw her guitar away in frustration.

Mukti:- What the hell yaar? Where is this Cabir? I am getting bore here.

Aliya:- He told us he will be here in five minutes.

Dhruv and Manik end their games and laid down on the bed.

Mukti:- Aj aunty bahar gayi hain. Socha tha mast party karegge par dakho yeha par beatke bore ho rohi hu. ( Today Aunty went outside. Thought to do party but see we are sitting here and getting bore.)

Manik stood up.

Manik:- I will go and see.

Mukti:- Jaldi ja. ( Go quickly.)

Manik was going downstairs. But he stopped infont of Nandini's room. The door was opened a little. He pushed the door a little and looked inside what he saw a smile came on his face.

Nandini was sitting on her bed studying. Lots of books around her. She was biting her pen when she was not getting it. Her lose hair was falling on her face disturbing her. She made a cute face and tucked them behind her ear. Manik smiled seeing her cuteness.

Suddenly Manik heard someone cleared his throat. Manik jumped on his place. Nandini was so much into her study that she didn't heard anything. Manik turned around and saw Cabir was standing there with a box in his hand.

Cabir:- Yeha kya kar raha hain? (What are you doing here?)

Manik gave him a sleepy smile. He rabbed his neck.

Manik:- Woh I was searching for you.

Cabir:- Me? Woh bhi Nandini ki room ke samne? ( Me? That too in front of Nandini's room?)

Manik:- Woh...

Cabir started laughing loudly.

Cabir:- Chill Manik. I was just kidding. You got really scared.

Manik laughed a little then put his one arm around his neck and pressed it. Manik gritted his teeth.

Cabir:- Manik chor kya kar raha hai? ( Manik leave me what are you doing?)

Manik:- Kyu hass na or hass. ( Why laugh, laugh more.)

Manik left him. Cabir rabbed his neck.

Manik:- Chal sab tera wait kar rahe hain. ( Let's go everyone is waiting for you.)

Cabir started walking. Manik last time looked at Nandini then he also went behind Cabir.

Mukti:- Manik abhi tak nahi aya. Cabir kaha hain? ( Manik is still not came. Where is this Cabir?)

That time Manik and Cabir entered inside.

Cabir:- I am here.

Mukti:- Where were you?

Cabir:- I went to get something for you guys.

Cabir kept the box on the ground and opened the box. The box was full of beer can. Mukti jumped from her sit.

Mukti:- My god Cabir what have you brought?

Manik picked up a beer can.

Manik:- Wah Cabir.

Aliya:- First time we are going to have it.

Mukti:- Yup.

Dhruv:- But guys is it safe? I mean we are still young.

Manik:- Buddy nothing will happen. Trust me.

Cabir:- Yes good boy nothing will happen.

Dhruv:- Guys what if we got drunk. We have match tomorrow.

Cabir:- Aree Dhruv itna kyu soch raha hain? Chal aja. ( Dhruv why are you thinking so much? Come.)

Then they all started drinking. Dhruv was saying no but he also started drinking.

Manik:- Yaar koi music on karo. Music ke bina maza nahi aaraha hain. ( Dude someone on the music. Without music there is no fun.)

Cabir played the music. On the other hand Nandini jumped from her bed listening loud music.

Nandini (angrily):- Cabirrrr!!!

She went to Cabir's room and saw all messed up. All were drinking and dancing crazily.
