Nandani Sighed and looked at Navya while she stood up trying to wrap her head around everything. After a few seconds, she looked at Nandani and said,

Navya: first of all what is wrong with your mother and father?

Nandani: that is the one thing that I don't understand!

ON THE OTHER SIDE (Nandani's mom – Asha)

Asha: She has not called me till now!

Baby (Asha's mother): Asha she will call you! You don't expect to drop a bomb on her head and then do whatever the hell you want her to do!

Ashish: Exactly! You should have either not told her about anything there! But now that you have let manik handle her I will talk to him today and have a word if you want me to.

Asha: Yes Please Thank you!

Ashish: Okay Now that everything is settled I will go to the office! See ya guys!

Baby & Asha: Byeee!

After he hung up the call Asha looked at her mother who was looking at her and said,

Asha: I have no idea what I am about to do!

Baby: Let's let time tell that to us.

Asha sighed and nodded when her phone rang. She looked at it and then looked at her mother. She took her phone and picked up the call,

Asha: hello Ritvik

Ritvik Murty: Asha!

Asha: Why did you call?

Ritvik: just wanted to check on Nandani! How is she doing?

Asha glanced at her mother and then replied,

Asha: She is fine!

Ritvik: when are you guys leaving?

Asha: why so you can cut through our deal and contact Nandani on your own?

Ritvik: if I had to do that I would have never contacted you in the first place!

Asha: there are some changes in plans we are not going for a few more weeks!

Ritvik: Any problem I can help you with?

Asha: I will let you know if there are any!

Ritvik: okay let me know! I will talk to you later I guess then!

Asha: sure!

She hung the call before he could say anything else and then left a deep breath.

Baby: I feel that we might have done a huge mistake not involving Nandani in all this!

Asha looked at her and shuddered a little as they went on with their day.

Nandani: But whatever is happening with my parents can wait till Sanket calls up you tell me what is with Akriti!

Navya: I don't know! She didn't even call me to tell me that she met you or for a chance saw you!

Nandani: You know I talked all about it just because Cabir told me that he knew she was going and you don't know that so... Otherwise TBH I don't give a shit.

Navya: Yeah I know! Let's leave about it! Let's just focus on your parents and more Importantly YOUR WEDDING!

Nandani: I don't know bro after what happened yesterday, the wedding and preparations are not even on the list of work that I am worried about. I am just waiting for Sanket to talk to the lawyer and come up with an explanation.
