As the day of the trip drew closer, Nandini and Navya's excitement reached new heights. They spent hours discussing what to pack, and what activities they wanted to do, and eagerly counting down the days until their adventure with FAB 5.

Nandini and Navya decided to go shopping together to pick out some cute outfits for the trip.

They wandered through the aisles of their favorite stores, trying on different clothes and accessories, giggling like schoolgirls as they modeled their finds for each other.

"Ooh, this dress is perfect for the bonfire night!" Navya exclaimed, twirling around in a flowy sundress.

Nandini nodded enthusiastically, holding up a pair of sunglasses. "And these will go perfectly with it! We're going to look amazing!"

Their shopping spree was a success, and they returned home with bags filled with stylish outfits and accessories for the trip.

Excitement bubbled within them as they started packing their suitcases, carefully selecting each item with care and anticipation.

However, as they packed, Vishakha's curiosity about Manik only seemed to grow. She couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to Nandini's relationship with him than she was letting on.

"Who is this Manik?" Vishakha asked casually as she passed by Nandini's room, her tone deceptively light.

Nandini paused mid-fold, her heart racing at her mother's question. "Oh, he's just an old friend from school, Mumma. I've known him for years."

Vishakha arched an eyebrow, her suspicions piqued. "Just a friend, huh? You seem to talk about him a lot lately and Navya said you guys have been best friends for years too."

Nandini's mind raced for an excuse to deflect her mother's curiosity. "Well, we've been catching up recently when we met at the reunion, that's all. Nothing out of the ordinary."

But Vishakha wasn't easily convinced. She could sense the evasiveness in Nandini's tone and resolved to get to the bottom of this mystery.

"Are you sure there's nothing you're not telling me, Nandini?" Vishakha pressed, her gaze piercing.

Nandini forced a smile, trying to hide her growing discomfort. "There is nothing like that Mumma. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to finish packing."

With a final glance at her daughter, Vishakha retreated from Nandini's room, her mind whirling with suspicions and unanswered questions.

As Nandini watched her mother leave, a sense of unease settled over her. She knew that she couldn't keep dodging her mother's questions forever, but for now, the fear of revealing the truth kept her trapped in a web of lies and secrecy.

As the day of the trip approached, FAB 5 was buzzing with excitement. It had been a long time since they had gone on a trip like this together, and the prospect of spending a weekend away from the city filled them with anticipation.

Cabir was busy organizing the itinerary, while Mukti and Alya eagerly shared ideas for fun activities they could do together.

Dhruv, chimed in with his trademark optimism, looking forward to reconnecting with his friends and making new memories.

But it was Manik who seemed to be the most ecstatic of them all. His heart soared with happiness at the thought of spending more time with Nandini, knowing that this trip would provide them with the perfect opportunity to deepen their bond.

As he packed his belongings for the trip, a smile tugged at the corners of Manik's lips, his thoughts filled with visions of laughter, adventure, and stolen moments with Nandini.

He couldn't wait to create new memories with her and cherish every moment they spent together.

As the night before the trip approached, Manik and Nandini found themselves on a late-night call, their voices filled with excitement and anticipation for the adventure that awaited them.

"So, are you all packed and ready to go?" Manik asked, a hint of amusement in his voice as he imagined Nandini bustling around her room, trying to fit everything into her suitcase.

Nandini replied. "Almost! I just need to double-check everything and make sure I haven't forgotten anything."

Manik smiled, his heart warming at the thought of Nandini's meticulousness. "Don't worry, Nandini. Even if you forget something, I'll be there to help you out."

Their conversation soon turned more serious as Nandini shared her concerns about Vishakha's suspicions and the fear of their secret relationship being exposed.

"Mumma is asking too many questions about you, Manik," Nandini confessed, her voice tinged with worry. "I don't know how much longer I can keep dodging them without raising more suspicion."

Manik's expression softened, his heart going out to Nandini as he reassured her. "Hey, don't worry about it. We'll figure it out together, okay? And if worst comes to worst, we'll deal with it when the time comes."

Nandini sighed, feeling a sense of relief wash over her at Manik's comforting words. "Thank you, Manik. I don't know what I'd do without you."

Manik's smile widened, his heart swelling with affection for Nandini. "You don't have to thank me, Nandini. I'll always be here for you, no matter what."

As their conversation lightened once again, Manik couldn't resist teasing Nandini about the upcoming trip. "I can't wait for our little getaway, Nandini. We'll have our own time to relax, unwind, and maybe even sneak in some romance."

Nandini's cheeks flushed pink at Manik's playful suggestion, her heart fluttering at the thought of stealing moments alone with him. "Manik, you know we're going with friends. We have to be cautious."

Manik chuckled, his voice filled with warmth and affection. "Of course, Nandini. I promise to behave myself... mostly."

Their laughter filled the night air as they continued to talk, their hearts filled with excitement and anticipation for the adventures that awaited them on their upcoming trip.

As they bid each other goodnight and drifted off to sleep, their minds filled with visions of laughter, love, and unforgettable memories waiting to be made.

As the first light of dawn kissed the sky, Nandini and Navya stood outside their home, their bags packed and anticipation coursing through their veins.

The air was crisp with the promise of adventure as they bid farewell to their parents, Mahir, Bela, and Vishakha, who stood at the doorstep.

"Have a great trip, my princesses," Bela said, her voice filled with maternal warmth as she enveloped Nandini and Navya in a tight embrace.

Mahir nodded, a smile playing on his lips. "Stay safe, and don't forget to have fun."

Vishakha's gaze lingered on Nandini, her expression unreadable as she hugged them bearly. "Take care of yourselves."

With their parents' blessings, Nandini and Navya climbed into the waiting car, their excitement bubbling over as they made their way to FAB 5's place.

As they pulled up outside the house, Nandini and Navya's eyes widened in awe at the sight of FAB 5 already gathered outside, their bags at their feet and smiles on their faces.

"Hey, girls!" Cabir called out, waving enthusiastically as they approached. "We're all set and ready to go!"

Nandini and Navya returned their greetings with hugs, feeling a sense of warmth and belonging wash over them in the presence of their friends.

But it was Manik who caught Nandini by surprise as he enveloped her in a tight embrace, his arms lingering a little longer than usual.

With laughter and chatter filling the air, the group loaded their bags into the car and set off on their journey to Jaipur, the promise of adventure and camaraderie lighting up the dawn as they embarked on a weekend filled with laughter, love, and unforgettable memories.

As the car rolled onto the highway, the excitement among the group was palpable. The journey to Jaipur promised to be as eventful as the destination itself.

With Cabir at the wheel, Mukti claimed the coveted front passenger seat, armed with a playlist curated for the road trip. Alya and Dhruv settled into the backseat, leaving Nandini and Navya squeezed between them, while Manik strategically positioned himself next to Nandini, a mischievous glint in his eyes.

As they merged onto the highway, Mukti cranked up the volume, filling the car with upbeat tunes.

Meanwhile, Cabir, ever the entertainer, regaled the group with his witty anecdotes and hilarious impersonations, earning uproarious laughter from his captive audience.

Amidst the laughter and banter, Manik seized every opportunity to steal glances and subtle touches with Nandini, their secret romance simmering beneath the surface.

As they sat side by side, their fingers brushed against each other in subtle caresses, sending shivers of excitement down Nandini's spine.

"Hey," Manik whispered, leaning in closer to Nandini. "Are you excited about our little getaway?"

Nandini nodded, her heart fluttering at the warmth in Manik's gaze. "More than you can imagine. I can't wait to spend time with you and our friends, away from all the distractions of everyday life."

Manik's smile widened, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "Me too. And who knows, maybe we'll find some time for ourselves amidst all the chaos."

Nandini's cheeks flushed pink at Manik's suggestive tone, her heart racing at the thought of stolen moments alone with him. "Manik, you know we have to be cautious. We can't risk anyone finding out about us."

Manik nodded, his expression softening with understanding. "I know, Nandini. I promise to be careful. But that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun along the way, right?"

Their conversation was interrupted by Mukti's excited squeal as she pointed out a roadside dhaba up ahead. "Hey, guys, who's up for some roadside chai and snacks?"

With unanimous agreement from the group, Cabir skillfully maneuvered the car into the dhaba's parking lot, and they all piled out, eager to stretch their legs and indulge in some much-needed refreshments.
