Nandini , Alya and Mukti, the three of them were on their way back home after buying their outfits. One for engagement, one for haldi ,mehendi and sangeet would be commenced together so one for them and another for the wedding. As Nandini told them, she had enough sarees for the reception and also that Alya and Mukti can take whichever they like, they did not go for any outfits for the reception.

"Lets have starbucks" suggested Alya spotting a starbucks cafe and stopping the car infront of it 

"I'll go and get it" said Mukti 

"Caramel brulle latte for me" said Nandini 

"Vanilla latte for me" said Alya 

"Kay" said Mukti as she got down and went inside

"Caramel brulle, vanilla and a coffee please" ordered Mukti on the counter as the counterperson nodded registering her order and getting it prepared while Mukti sat waiting.

It was 5 minutes when she roamed her eyes around the cafe to see a familiar face. She saw Abhimanyu in the cafe with a girl. They seemed to be happy and close, the smiles and the chuckles proved it.

Tears made way in her eyes instantly but hiding it quickly she took the order and went out towards the car. Masking up her very evident emotions with a smile, she sat in the car passing the respective orders to the girls who went on sipping their drinks enjoying it to the fullest.

The girls entered the house to see the Murthys present. Murthys were being the bride's family all along since Navya had no one else.

Nandini hugged Raman who met her first while he planted a kiss over her forehead while Nandini proceeded to meet Ishita 

"Where's bhai?" asked Nandini

"He and Manik are out for some work, I don't know what work" said Ishita getting back to her work with Nyonika

"Nandini, go in your room and rest , tomorrow would be hectic " said Nyonika while Nandini nodded at her .

"Mukti , Alya come, see the sarees, if fittings would be needed it would happen earliest" said Nandini while the two agreed and all of them went to the bedroom.

Nandini opened the third section of her closet revealing all varieties of sarees in front of their eyes

"Wow , beautiful" said Alya laying her hands on few of them while Nandini smiled at her 

"I agree , so pretty Nandini. You are fond of sarees?" asked Mukti

"I am, isn't it amazing how sarees literally fit for anything and everything, a wedding,casuals , formal purposes. I like wearing them just that in the hospital, it gets difficult at times to carry them out" said Nandini 

"Most of these are kanjivaram sarees" said Alya checking them out

"Perks of being a south indian" said Nandini making the girls laugh

"Let's wear kanjivaram then,all of us would be same" suggested Mukti .

"Yesss good idea, girls pick  up whatever you like for yourself" said Nandini while the girls went on choosing what would suit them and Nandini went to have her medicines.

As she took the tablets and was about to have it, a hand stopped her . She looked around to find Manik holding her hand that held the tablets. Raising her eyebrows at him, she asked him the reason of his actions while Manik sighed
